Answer:
Advantages
Dividends Future buy backRepaidBy issuing dividends, a company can present a positive image to the outside world of how they take care of their investors. This will prompt more investors to come onboard.
Being able to buy back the stock is also an advantage because should the company decide that they want to reduce shareholder ownership, they would be able to.
Disadvantages
Net profit after taxesOne vote per shareShareholdersThe net profit after taxes of the company will be reduced because they are being shared as dividends with shareholders. A company would lose more control when shares are issued because the shares will have the right to vote on company affairs.
Laws regarding shareholders will place the company under strain as they try to ensure compliance.
As long as a firm's net income is positive, then the firm can use the positive net income to pay dividends to its shareholders.

Explanation:
Through the partnership, the importance of the penis is increased
[tex]w = 0.01 a^x[/tex]
In which an element is gradual and x the year is no.
For [tex]2015 x = 2015 - 1909 = 106[/tex], and at that time [tex]w = 3200[/tex]
thus
[tex]3200 = 0.01 a^{106}\\\\320000 = a^{106}\\\\\ln(320000) = 106 \ln(a)\\\\12.67 = 106 \ln(a)[/tex]
[tex]\ln (a) = 0.1196\\\\\to a = e^{0.1196} = 1.127[/tex]
[tex]15,000 = 0.01\times 1.127^x\\\\15,00,000 = 1.127^x[/tex]
[tex]\ln(15,00,000) = x \ln(1.127)\\\\[/tex]
[tex]6.17 = x\times 0.1196\\\\\to x = 51.58\\\\\to Year = 1909 + 51.58 = 1960.58[/tex]
Ace Products has a bond issue outstanding with 15 years remaining to maturity, a coupon rate of 8% with semiannual payments of $40, and a par value of $1,000. The price of each bond in the issue is $1,196.00. The bond issue is callable in 5 years at a call price of $1,080. What is the bond's current yield
Answer:
6.69%
Explanation:
Price of Ace products bond issue = $1,196
Annual coupon payment = $80
Current yield = Annual coupon payment / Bond price
Current yield = $80/$1,196
Current yield = 0.0668896
Current yield = 6.69%
A callable bond:
A. Is generally call protected during the entire term of the bond issue,
B. generally will have a call protection period during the final three years prior to maturity.
C. may be structured to pay bondholders the current value of the bond on the date of call.
D. is prohibited from having a sinking fund also.
E. Is frequently called at a price that is less than par value
Answer:
C. may be structured to pay bondholders the current value of the bond on the date of call.
Explanation:
A callable bond is also called a redeemable bond. It a debt instrument that the issuer may decide to call or redeem before the maturity date.
This is used by bond issuers to have a cheaper cost of borrowing funds.
For example when interests are low the issuer can buy back his bonds at a lower cost this reducing his debt burden.
So callable bonds are structured to pay bondholders the current value of the bond on the date of call or redemption.

Aliya and Samuel, managers from different departments at Finger Lakes Financial, are discussing the troubling behavior of an employee. Aliya says that it is the responsibility of high-level managers to take steps to prevent legal wrongdoing by punishing offenders. However, Samuel believes that every individual should take personal responsibility for his or her own behavior and that everyone needs to understand how to do the right thing. Samuel prefers a(n) ________ ethics program.
Answer:
Ethics Program
Samuel prefers a(n) ________ ethics program.
personal (individual) ethics program.
Explanation:
But such a personal ethics program cannot work in an organization. An organization is made up of persons from different backgrounds and orientations with differing work and personal ethics. An organizational ethics program cannot succeed by being dependent on personal scruples, as being suggested by Samuel. Every organization requires a company-wide ethics program that is equally applicable to all persons in the organization. The tone of such ethics program should be set at the top of the organization's hierarchy.

Answer:
See the errors identified below.
Explanation:
Note: The data in this question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question with the sorted data.
The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:
The following errors can be identified in the accountant's adjusting entries:
1.The accountant debited the account receivable for $5,000 (i.e. $23,250 - $18,250 = $5,000) without crediting laundry revenue.
Therefore, we should have:
Correct amount of laundry revenue = Laundry revenue in trial balance + (Adjusted account receivable - Unadjusted account receivable) = $182,100 + ($23,250 - $18,250) = $187100
2. The accountant debited laundry suppliers expense instead of crediting laundry suppliers for $3,000.
3. The the accountant credited Prepaid insurance for $3,600 (i.e. $5,200 - $1,600 = $3,600). However, the insurance expense was debited for $600.
4. Instead of crediting accumulated depreciation, the laundry equipment for depreciation expense was erroneously credited by the accountant for $13,000.
5. A debit of $1,000 to wages expense was not made by the accountant.
Additional Note:
After correcting the errors identified above, the correct adjusted trial balance will look as the one in the attached photo.

29. Randolph is a 30 percent partner in the RD Partnership. On January 1, RD distributes $22,500 cash and inventory with a fair value of $56,000 (inside basis of $28,000) to Randolph in complete liquidation of his interest. RD has no liabilities at the date of the distribution. Randolph's basis in his RD Partnership interest is $53,625. What is the amount and character of Randolph's gain or loss on the distribution
Answer: $3125 capital loss
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, we should note that RD Partnership distributes $22500 cash and inventory with inside basis of $28000.
Since Randolph's basis in his RD Partnership interest is $53,625, the amount and character of Randolph's gain or loss on the distribution will be:
= ($22500 + $28000) - $53625
= $50500 - $53625
= -$3125
Therefore, there's a capital loss of $3125
An investment project has annual cash inflows of $4,300, $4,000, $5,200, and $4,400, for the next four years, respectively. The discount rate is 13 percent. a.

What is the discounted payback period for these cash flows if the initial cost is $7,900? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) c. What is the discounted payback period for these cash flows if the initial cost is $10,900? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
1.64 years
2.27 years
3.13 years
Explanation:
Discounted payback calculates the amount of time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from it cumulative discounted cash flows
Present value of cash flow in year 1 = 4300 / 1.13 = 3805.31
Amount recovered in year 1 = -5800 + 3805.31 = -1994.69
Present value of cash flow in year 2 = 4000 / (1.13^2) = 3132.59
Amount recovered in year 2 =-1994.69 + 3132.59 = 1137.90
Payback period = 1 + 1994.69/3132.59 = 1.64 years
B
Present value of cash flow in year 1 = 4300 / 1.13 = 3805.31
Amount recovered in year 1 = -7900 + 3805.31 = -4094.69
Present value of cash flow in year 2 = 4000 / (1.13^2) = 3132.59
Amount recovered in year 2 = -4094.69 + 3132.59 = -962.10
Present value of cash flow in year 3 = 5200 / (1.13^3) = 3603.86
Amount recovered in year 3 = -962.10 + 3603.86 = 2641.76
Payback period = 2 years + -962.10 / 3603.86 = 2.27 years
C
Present value of cash flow in year 1 = 4300 / 1.13 = 3805.31
Amount recovered in year 1 = -10900 + 3805.31 = -7094.69
Present value of cash flow in year 2 = 4000 / (1.13^2) = 3132.59
Amount recovered in year 2 = -7094.69 + 3132.59 = -3962.10
Present value of cash flow in year 3 = 5200 / (1.13^3) = 3603.86
Amount recovered in year 3 = -3962.10 + 3603.86 = -358.24
Present value in year 4 = 4400 / (1.13^4) = 2698.60
Amount recovered in year 4 = -358.24 + 2698.60 = 2340.36
Payback period = 3 years + 358.24 + 2698.60 = 3.13 years

etaline Corp. uses the weighted average method for inventory costs and had the following information available for the year. Calculate the equivalent units of production for the year: Beginning Work in Process (40% complete, $1,100) 200 units Ending inventory of Work in Process (80% complete) 400 units Total units started during the year 3,200 units
Answer:
Equivalent units of production= 3,520
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Ending inventory of Work in Process (80% complete) 400 units
Total units started during the year 3,200 units
To calculate the equivalent units using the weighted-average method, we need to use the following formula:
Units completed in the period + Equivalent units in ending inventory WIP (units*%completion) = Equivalent units of production
Equivalent units of production= 3,200 + (400*0.8)
Equivalent units of production= 3,520
Your job pays you only once a year for all the work you did over the previous 12 months. Today, December 31, you just received your salary of $58,000 and you plan to spend all of it. However, you want to start saving for retirement beginning next year. You have decided that one year from today you will begin depositing 3 percent of your annual salary in an account that will earn 11 percent per year. Your salary will increase at 6 percent per year throughout your career.
Required: How much money will you have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today?
Answer:
The amount you will have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today is $1,904,087.20.
Explanation:
This can be determined using the formula for calculating the future value of growing annuity as follows:
FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - (1 + g)^n) / (r - g)) ...................................... (1)
Where
FV = Future value or the amount on the date of retirement = ?
M = First annual deposit = Annual salary * Deposit percentage = $58,000 * 3% = $1,740
r = annual interest rate = 11%, or 0.11
g = salary growth rate = 6%, or 0.06
n = number of years = 40 years
Substituting all the values into equation (1), we have:
FV = $1,740 * (((1 + 0.11)^40 - (1 + 0.06)^40) / (0.11 - 0.06))
FV = $1,740 * 1,094.30298736951
FV = $1,904,087.20
Therefore, the amount you will have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today is $1,904,087.20.

Discuss the tax consequences of the incorporation of the business to Cynthia and to Dove Corporation.
Answer:
Cynthia and Dove CorporationAny profits generated by Dove Corporation will be taxed to the corporation and also taxed to Cynthia as a shareholder whenever Dove distributes the profits as dividends. Taxing Dove and Cynthia creates a double taxation burden for both Dove and Cynthia. Dove Corporation does not get a tax deduction when it distributes dividends to Cynthia. Furthermore, Cynthia cannot deduct any corporation loss when incurred. These are unlike when the business was only a sole proprietorship.

List down three characteristic of project
Answer:
A single definable purpose, end-item or result. This is usually specified in terms of cost, schedule and performance requirements.
Every project is unique. It requires the doing of something different, something that was not done previously. Even in what are often called “routine” projects such as home construction, the variables such as terrain, access, zoning laws, labour market, public services and local utilities make each project different. A project is a one-time, once-off activity, never to be repeated exactly the same way again.
Projects are temporary activities. A project is an ad hoc organization of staff, material, equipment and facilities that is put together to accomplish a goal. This goal is within a specific time-frame. Once the goal is achieved, the organization created for it is disbanded or sometimes it is reconstituted to begin work on a new goal (project).

A note payable was executed by Sterling Inc. to Miami Finance Company. Sterling Inc. used $768,000 of its accounts receivable as collateral for the loan. The contract provided that Miami would advance 85% of the gross amount of the receivables. Sterling Inc. continues to collect payments for the receivables and the cash from customers is then remitted to the finance company. The cash remitted is first applied to the finance charges, with the remainder applied to principal.
During the first month, customers owing $524,800 paid cash, less sales returns and allowances of $20,480, originally recorded as a refund liability. The finance charge at the end of the first month was $4,480. During the second month, the remaining receivables were collected in full, except for $5,120 off as uncollectible. Final settlement was effected with the finance company, including payment of an additional finance charge of $1,920.
Required:
a. Record the entry for Sterling to record the secured borrowing.
b. Record the entries for Sterling to record (1) the collections and (2) the payment to Miami for the first month.
c. Record the entries for Sterling to record (1) the collections for the second month and (2) the final payment to Miami.
Answer:
See all the entries below.
Explanation:
a. Record the entry for Sterling to record the secured borrowing.
The entries will look as follows:
Account Name Debit ($) Credit ($)
Cash (768,000 * 85%) 652,800
Note Payable 652,800
(To record the secured borrowing.)
b. Record the entries for Sterling to record (1) the collections and (2) the payment to Miami for the first month.
The entries will look as follows:
Account Name Debit ($) Credit ($)
Cash 504,320
Refund Liability 20,480
Accounts Receivable 524,800
(To record collection on receivables for first month.)
Interest Expense 4,480
Note Payable 499,840
Cash 504,320
(To record payment to Miami for the first month.)
c. Record the entries for Sterling to record (1) the collections for the second month and (2) the final payment to Miami.
The entries will look as follows:
Account Name Debit ($) Credit ($)
Cash 238,080
Allowance for Doubtful Debt 5,120
Accounts Receivable (w.1) 243,200
(To record collection on receivables for second month Interest.)
Expense 1,920
Note Payable 151,040
Cash (w.2) 152,960
(To record final payment to Miami.)
Workings:
w.1: Accounts Receivable = Amount of accounts receivable as collateral – Cash received from customer = $768,000 - $524,800 = $243,200
w.2: Cash = Loan - First payment for principal = $652,800 - $499,840 = $152,960
A truck was acquired on July 1, 2018, at a cost of $311,850. The truck had a six-year useful life and an estimated salvage value of $34,650. The straight-line method of depreciation was used. On January 1, 2021, the truck was overhauled at a cost of $28,875, which extended the useful life of the truck for an additional two years beyond that originally estimated (salvage value is still estimated at $34,650). In computing depreciation for annual adjustment purposes, expense is calculated for each month the asset is owned.

Assume that a state government currently provides no child-care subsidies to working single parents, but it now wants to adopt a plan that will encourage labor force participation among single parents. Suppose that child-care costs are hourly, and suppose the government adopts a child-care subsidy that pays $3 per hour for each hour the parent works, up to 8 hours per day. Draw a current budget constraint (net of child-care costs) for an assumed single mother and then draw in the new constraint. Discuss the likely effects on labor force participation and hours of work.
Answer:
The line on the graph will be parallel to the pre-subsidy line and the new constraint will then be equal to the points connecting the two lines.
Explanation:
The subsidy by government to single parents is $3 per hour for up to 8 hours. The total of subsidy will be $16 for each day. The labor force who were not receiving the subsidy before had steep indifference curve but now few workers will find utility maximization with flatter indifference curve so the workers will join the subsidy program.
