Answer:
a. Output gap for 2017 = –0.66%
b. Output gap for 2018 = 0.27%
c. From 2017 to 2018, the output gap became more positive.
Explanation:
The following are given in the question:
Year Potential GDP Real GDP
2017 $18.17 trillion $18.05 trillion
2018 $18.51 trillion $18.56 trillion
To calculate output gap in percentage form, the following formula is used:
Output gap = ((Real GDP - Potential GDP) / Potential GDP) * 100 ......... (1)
Therefore, we have:
a. Calculate the output gap for 2017. %
Using equation (1), we have:
Output gap for 2017 = ((18.05 - 18.17) / 18.17) * 100 = –0.66%
b. Calculate the output gap for 2018. %
Using equation (1), we have:
Output gap for 2018 = ((18.56 - 18.51) / 18.51) * 100 = 0.27%
c. From 2017 to 2018, the output gap became more .
Since the output gap in 2017 is negative while the output gap in 2018 is positive; this implies that from 2017 to 2018, the output gap became more positive.
Old Economy Traders opened an account to short-sell 1,300 shares of Internet Dreams at $46 per share. The initial margin requirement was 50%. (The margin account pays no interest.) A year later, the price of Internet Dreams has risen from $46 to $59, and the stock has paid a dividend of $3.50 per share. a. What is the remaining margin in the account? (Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.)
Answer: $8450
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the total initial asset which will be the value of shares sold and the margin which will be:
= (1300 × $46) + (50% × 1300 × $46)
= $59800 + $29900
= $89700
We will then calculate total liability which will be:
= (1300 × $59) + (1300 × $3.50)
= $76700 + $4550
= $81250
The remaining margin will then be:
= $89700 - $81250
= $8450
Break-even sales and sales to realize operating incomeFor the current year ended March 31, Cosgrove Company expects fixed costs of $465,000, a unit variable cost of $62, and a unit selling price of $92.a. Compute the anticipated break-even sales (units).fill in the blank 1 unitsb. Compute the sales (units) required to realize operating income of $108,000.fill in the blank 2 units
Answer:
Break even point in units=15,500 units
Units to achieve target profit=19,100 units
Explanation:
Break-even point is the level of activity at which a firm must operate such that its total revenue will equal its total costs. At this point, the company makes no profit or loss because the total contribution exactly equals the total fixed costs
Break-even point (in units) is calculated using this formula:
Break even point in units = Total general fixed cost/ (selling price - Variable cost)
Break even point in units= $465,000/(92-62)=15,500 units
Units to achieve target profit = (Total general fixed cost for the period + target profit)/ contribution per unit
Units to achieve target profit of 108,000 = ($465,000+ 108,000)/ (92-62)=19,100 units
Break even point in units=15,500 units
Units to achieve target profit=19,100 units
A $64,000 machine with a 6-year class life was purchased 2 years ago. The machine will now be sold for $50,000 and replaced with a new machine costing $82,000, with a 10-year class life. The new machine will not increase sales, but will decrease operating costs by $9,000 per year. Simplified straight line depreciation is employed for both machines, and the marginal corporate tax rate is 34 percent. What is the incremental annual cash flow associated with the project
Answer:
$6,779
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the incremental annual cash flow associated with the project
First step is to calculate the depreciation
Depreciation=[($64,000/6 years)-($82,000/10 years)
Depreciation=$10,667-$8,200
Depreciation=$2,467
Now let calculate the Incremental annual cash flow
Incremental annual cash flow ={($9,000-$2,467)
-[($9,000-$2,467)*34%]+$2,467}
Incremental annual cash flow =[($6,533-$2,221)+$2,467]
Incremental annual cash flow =$4,312+$2,467
Incremental annual cash flow=$6,779
Therefore the incremental annual cash flow associated with the project is $6,779
Patricia purchased a home on January 1, 2017 for $1,420,000 by making a down payment of $100,000 and financing the remaining $1,320,000 with a 30-year loan, secured by the residence, at 6 percent. During year 2017 and 2018, Patricia made interest-only payments on the loan of $79,200. What amount of the $79,200 interest expense Patricia paid during 2018 may she deduct as an itemized deduction
Answer: $60,000
Explanation:
The maximum amount deductible is based on a mortgage of $1,000,000 and the interest rate of the mortgage being paid.
Interest on $1,000,000 at 6% is:
= 6% * 1,000,000
= $60,000
Only $60,000 of the $79,200 may be deducted.

Park Co.'s wholly-owned subsidiary, Schnell Corp., maintains its accounting records in German marks. Because all of Schnell's branch offices are in Switzerland, its functional currency is the Swiss franc. Remeasurement of Schnell's 20X1 financial statements resulted in a $7,600 gain, and translation of its financial statements resulted in an $8,100 gain. What amount should Park report as a foreign exchange gain in its income statement for the year ended December 31, 20X1
Answer: $7600
Explanation:
The amount that Park should report as a foreign exchange gain in its income statement for the year ended December 31, 20X1 will be $7600.
We should note that when we want to determine the net income for a particular period, the translatation adjustments will not be included. Therefore the $8100 gain won't be included in the calculation. Hence, Park should report only $7600 gain.
Trainees are put through a two-month school. The fixed cost of running one session of this school is $150,000. Any number of sessions can be run during the year but must be scheduled so that the airline always has enough flight attendants. The cost of having excess attendants is simply the salary that they receive, which is $15,000 per month. How many sessions of the school
Answer:
The airline training school can run maximum of 10 sessions.
Explanation:
There can be 10 sessions which can be held at the training school. The airline school needs to have enough attendants so that they do not run a session in spare capacity. If a session is run with few attendants then it will cost $15,000 per session which is an additional cost burden for the airline training school.

Explanation:
1. Calculation to Show how International Machines determined the $18,200 quarterly lease payments
First step is to find the Present value of annuity at period start
Lease term=n = 2 x 4 quarters
Lease term=n= 8 periods
Fair value of asset = $138,287
Implicit interest rate, i = 6%, quarterly rate = 6%/4 Implicit interest rate= 1.5%
Present value of annuity at period start at 1.5%, 8 periods
Present value of annuity at period start = 7.5982
Now let determine the quarterly payments
Quarterly payments= $138,287/7.5982
Quarterly payments = $18,200 per quarter
Therefore the quarterly lease payments is $18,200

Explanation:
Lysiak Corporation uses an activity based costing system to assign overhead costs to products. In the first stage, two overhead costs--equipment depreciation and supervisory expense-are allocated to three activity cost pools--Machining, Order Filling, and Other--based on resource consumption. Data to perform these allocations appear below:
Overhead costs:
Equipment depreciation $ 47,000
Supervisory expense $ 6,000
Distribution of Resource Consumption Across Activity Cost Pools:
Activity Cost Pools
Machining Order Filling Other
Equipment depreciation 0.60 0.10 0.30
Supervisory expense 0.60 0.20 0.20
In the second stage, Machining costs are assigned to products using machine-hours (MHs) and Order Filling costs are assigned to products using the number of orders. The costs in the Other activity cost pool are not assigned to products. Activity data for the company's two products follow:
Activity:
MHs (Machining) Orders (Order Filling)
Product C9 6,900 200
Product U0 3,100 800
Total 10,000 1,000
What is the overhead cost assigned to Product C9 under activity-based costing?
Answer:
$23,122
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the overhead cost assigned to Product C9 under activity-based costing
First step is to calculate the cost allocation to machining activity and order filling
MACHINING
Equipment depreciation (0.60 : 0.10 : 0.30)
Machining=$47,000 x 0.60 = $28,200
Supervisory expense (0.60 : 0.20 : 0.20) Machining=$6,000 x 0.60 = $3600
Total $31,800
($28,200+$3,600)
ORDER FILLING
Equipment depreciation (0.60 : 0.10 : 0.30)
Order filling=$47,000 x 0.10 = $4,700
Supervisory expense (0.60 : 0.20 : 0.20)
Order filling=$6000 x 0.20 = $1,200
Total $5,900
($4,700+$1,200)
Second step is to calculate the Assign overhead costs to products:
Assign overhead costs to products:
Machining= $31,800 ÷ 10,000 MHs
Machining= $3.18 per MHOrder
Order Filling=$5,900 ÷ 1,000 orders
Order Filling = $5.90 per order
Now let calculate the Overhead cost for Product C9
Machining= $3.18 per MH × 6,900
Machining=$21,942
Order Filling= $5.90 per order × 200 Orders Order Filling=$1,180
TOTAL $23,122
($21,942+$1,180)
Therefore the overhead cost assigned to Product C9 under activity-based costing is $23,122

The company will increase its dividend by 20 percent next year and then reduce its dividend growth rate by 5 percentage points per year until it reaches the industry average of 5 percent dividend growth, after which the company will keep a constant growth rate forever. If the required return on the company’s stock is 12 percent, what will a share of stock sell for today? (4 pts)
Answer:
$61.29
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what will a share of stock sell for today
First step is to calculate the price in Year 3
P3= $3.15(1.20)(1.15)(1.10)(1.05) / (.12 – .05)
P3= $5.020785/0.07
P3=$71.72
Now Let Calculate the price of stock today using the Present Value (PV) of the first three dividends in addition with the Present Value (PV) of the stock price in Year 3:
P0= $3.15(1.20)/(1.12) + $3.15(1.20)(1.15)/1.12^²+ $3.15(1.20)(1.15)(1.10)/1.12^³+ $71.72/1.12^³
P0=$3.78/1.12+$4.347/1.2544+$4.7817/1.404928+$71.72/1.404928
P0=$3.375+3.465+3.4035+$51.048
P0= $61.29
Therefore what will a share of stock sell for today is $61.29

The following are budgeted data: January February March Sales in units 16,900 23,800 19,900 Production in units 19,900 20,900 20,000 One pound of material is required for each finished unit. The inventory of materials at the end of each month should equal 25% of the following month's production needs. Purchases of raw materials for February would be budgeted to be:
Answer:
Purchases= 20,675 pounds
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production:
Feb= 20,900
Mar= 20,000
One pound of material is required for each finished unit.
Desired ending inventory= 25% of the following month's production needs.
To calculate the purchase required for February, we need to use the following formula:
Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Purchases= 20,900 + (20,000*0.25) - (20,900*0.25)
Purchases= 20,675
The carrying value of bonds at maturity always equals: Multiple Choice the amount of discount or premium. the amount of cash originally received in exchange for the bonds plus any unamortized discount or less any premium. the par value of the bond. the amount of cash originally received in exchange for the bonds. the amount in excess of par value.
Answer: the par value of the bond
Explanation:
The carrying value of bonds at maturity will always be equal to the par value of the bond. The carrying value of a bond is simply refered to as the bond's face value or par value plus the premiums taht are unamortized.
We should note that during the time of maturity of the bond, there'll have been an ammortization of the discounts or premiums, while the bond's par value will be left.
The carrying value of bonds at maturity always equals to the amount of cash originally received in exchange for the bonds plus any unamortized discount or less any premium. Thus, option (b) is correct.
At maturity, bonds' carrying values will always be the same as their par values. The face value or par value of a bond plus any unamortized premiums are simply referred to as the bond's carrying value.
To put it another way, it is the total of a bond's face value, any unamortized premiums, and any unamortized discounts, if any. The par value, interest rate, and remaining maturity period of the bond must all be known before calculating the carrying value using the effective interest rate technique.
Therefore, option (b) is correct.

Storm Tools has formed a new business unit to produce battery-powered drills. The business unit was formed by the transfer of selected assets and obligations from the parent company. The unit's initial balance sheet on January 1 contained cash ($500,000), plant and equipment ($2,500,000), notes payable to the parent ($1,000,000), and residual equity ($2,000,000).
The business unit is expected to repay the note at $50,000 per month, plus all accrued interest at 1/2% per month. Payments are made on the last day of each month.
The unit is scheduled to produce 25,000 drills during January, with an increase of 2,500 units per month for the next three months. Each drill requires $40 of raw materials. Raw materials are purchased on account, and paid in the month following the month of purchase. The plant manager has established a goal to end each month with raw materials on hand, sufficient to meet 25% of the following month's planned production.
The unit expects to sell 20,000 drills in January; 25,000 in February, 25,000 in March, and 30,000 per month thereafter. The selling price is $100 per drill. Half of the drills will be sold for cash through a website. The others will be sold to retailers on account, who pay 40% in the month of purchase, and 60% in the following month. Uncollectible accounts are not material. Each drill requires 20 minutes of direct labor to assemble. Labor rates are $24 per hour. Variable factory overhead is applied at $9 per direct labor hour. The fixed factory overhead is $25,000 per month; 60% of this amount is related to depreciation of plant and equipment. With the exception of depreciation, all overhead is funded as incurred.
Selling, general, and administrative costs are funded in cash as incurred, and consist of fixed components (salaries, $100,000; office, $40,000; and advertising, $75,000) and variable components (15% of sales). Prepare a monthly comprehensive budget plan for Storm's new business unit for January through March. The plan should include the (a) sales and cash collections budget, (b) production budget, (c) direct materials purchases and payments budget, (d) direct labor budget, (e) factory overhead budget, (f) ending finished goods budget (assume total factory overhead is applied to production at the rate of $11.73 per direct labor hour), (g) SG&A budget, and (h) cash budget.

The underlying principle of the temporal method is Group of answer choices all balance sheet accounts are translated at the current exchange rate, except stockholder equity. monetary balance sheet accounts should be translated at the spot rate; nonmonetary accounts are translated at the historical rate in effect when the account was first recorded. monetary accounts are translated at the current exchange rate; other accounts are translated at the current exchange rate if they are carried on the books at current value; items carried at historical cost are translated at historic exchange rates. assets and liabilities should be translated based on their maturity.
Answer:
monetary accounts are translated at the current exchange rate; other accounts are translated at the current exchange rate if they are carried on the books at current value; items carried at historical cost are translated at historic exchange rates.
Explanation:
The principle of the temporal method means that the accounts that are monetary in nature would be transform at the current or present exchange rate, also the other account would be transform but they should be at the current value. In addition to this, if the items are at historical cost so they should be transform at historic exchange rates

Income tax (21%) 66,458
After-tax income $249,998
equivalent to $250,000
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
CLIFF CONSULTING
Contribution Income Statement
For the Year Ended September 30
Sales revenue $ 1,200,000
Variable costs
Cost of services $ 480,000
Selling and administrative 60,000 540,000
Contribution margin 660,000
Fixed Costs -selling and administrative 440,000
Before-tax profit 220,000
Income taxes (21%) 46,200
After-tax profit $ 173,800
Break-even point in sales revenue = Fixed costs/Contribution margin ratio
= $440,000/0.55
= $800,000
Annual margin of safety = normal sales revenue minus break-even sales revenue
= $1,200,000 - $800,000
= $400,000
Contribution margin ratio = contribution margin/sales revenue * 100
= $660,000/$1,200,000 * 100 = 55%
If fixed costs increases by $80,000, the break-even point in sales revenue
= ($440,000 + $80,000)/0.55 = $520,000/0.55 = $945,455
To achieve after-tax net income of $250,000, the required dollar sales revenue:
Net income after-tax = $250,000
Tax rate = 21%
Net income before tax = $250,000/1-21%
= $250,000/0.79 = $316,456
Sales dollars to achieve target profit = (Fixed costs + Target Profit/1 - 0.21)/Contribution margin
= ($440,000 + ($250,000/0.79))/0-55
= ($440,000 + $316,456)/0.55
= $756,456/0.55
= $1,375,375
Abbreviated Contribution Income Statement
Sales revenue $1,375,375
Variable costs = 618,919
Contribution = $756,456
Fixed costs 440,000
Before tax income 316,456
Income tax (21%) 66,458
After-tax income $249,998
After-tax income is equivalent to $250,000

Explanation:
In its first year of operations, Crane Company recognized $31,700 in service revenue, $7,700 of which was on account and still outstanding at year-end. The remaining $24,000 was received in cash from customers. The company incurred operating expenses of $16,600. Of these expenses, $12,690 were paid in cash; $3,910 was still owed on account at year-end. In addition, Crane prepaid $3,260 for insurance coverage that would not be used until the second year of operations.
Required:
Calcuate the first year's net earnings under the cash basis of accounting, and calculate the first years net earnings under the accrual basis of accouriting.
Answer:
Under the cash basis, expenses and revenue are recorded in the period the cash is received or spent.
Under the Accrual basis, expenses and revenue are recorded in the period incurred.
Under Cash basis:
= Cash Revenue - cash expenses - Prepaid expenses
= 24,000 - 12,690 - 3,260
= $8,050
Under Accrual basis:
= Revenue for the year - Expenses for the year
= 31,700 - 16,600
= $15,700
Problem 8-27A (Static) Computing standard cost and analyzing variances LO 8-5, 8-6 Spiro Company manufactures molded candles that are finished by hand. The company developed the following standards for a new line of drip candles. Amount of direct materials per candle 1.6 pounds Price of direct materials per pound $ 1.50 Quantity of labor per unit 1 hour Price of direct labor per hour $ 20 /hour Total budgeted fixed overhead $ 390,000 During Year 2, Spiro planned to produce 30,000 drip candles. Production lagged behind expectations, and it actually produced only 24,000 drip candles. At year-end, direct materials purchased and used amounted to 40,000 pounds at a unit price of $1.35 per pound. Direct labor costs were actually $18.75 per hour and 26,400 actual hours were worked to produce the drip candles. Overhead for the year actually amounted to $330,000. Overhead is applied to products using a predetermined overhead rate based on estimated units.
This question asks us to:
a. Determine the standard cost per candle for direct products, direct labor, and overhead.
b. Calculate the total standard cost of one drip candle.
c. Determine the direct materials, direct labor, and overhead actual costs per candle.
d. The total actual cost of each candle
Answer:
Explanation:
a.
Cost Computation Standard cost per unit
Direct material [tex]\$1.50 \times 1.6[/tex] 2.4
Direct Labor [tex]\$20 \times 1[/tex] 20
Overhead [tex]\dfrac{\$390,000}{30000}[/tex] 13
b.
To find the total average standard cost for 1 drip candle
The total standard cost per dip candle = $(2.4+20+13)
=$35.40
c. The actual cost per candle for direct materials, direct labor, and overhead can be computed as:
Cost Computation Standard cost per unit
Direct material [tex](\dfrac{40000}{24000}\times 1.35)[/tex] 2.25
Direct Labor [tex]\dfrac{26400}{24000} \times 18.75[/tex] 20.63
Overhead [tex]\dfrac{\$330,000}{24000}[/tex] 13.75
d. The total actual cost per candle = $(2.25 + 20.63 + 13.75)
= $36.63

Explanation:
Speedy Delivery Company purchases a delivery van for $32,000. Speedy estimates that at the end of its four-year service life, the van will be worth $6,000. During the four-year period, the company expects to drive the van 130,000 miles. Actual miles driven each year were 35,000 miles in year 1 and 38,000 miles in year 2.
Required:
Calculate annual depreciation for the first two years of the van using each of the following methods.
Answer:
(1) Straight-line.
Year 1 depreciation expense = $6,500
Year 2 depreciation expense = $6,500
(2) Double-declining-balance.
Year 1 depreciation expense = $16,000
Year 2 depreciation expense = $8,000
(3) Activity-based.
Year 1 depreciation expense = $7,000
Year 1 depreciation expense = $7,600
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
Speedy Delivery Company purchases a delivery van for $32,000. Speedy estimates that at the end of its four-year service life, the van will be worth $6,000. During the four-year period, the company expects to drive the van 130,000 miles. Actual miles driven each year were 35,000 miles in year 1 and 38,000 miles in year 2.
Required:
Calculate annual depreciation for the first two years of the van using each of the following methods.
(1) Straight-line.
(2) Double-declining-balance.
(3) Activity-based.
The explanation of the answers is now given as follows:
(1) Straight-line.
Depreciable amount = Cost of the delivery van – Salvage value = $32,000 - $6,000 = $26,000
Annual depreciation rate = 1 / Number of useful years = 1 / 4 = 0.25, or 25%
Year 1 depreciation expense = Depreciable amount * Annual depreciation rate = $26,000 * 25% = $6,500
Year 2 depreciation expense = Depreciable amount * Annual depreciation rate = $26,000 * 25% = $6,500
(2) Double-declining-balance.
Note: The salvage value is taken care of in the computation of the depreciation expense for the last useful year under the double-declining-balance method.
Therefore, we have:
Cost of the delivery van = $32,000
Annual depreciation rate = Straight line annual depreciation rate * 2 = 25% * 2 = 50%
Year 1 depreciation expense = Cost of the delivery van * Annual depreciation rate = $32,000 * 50% = $16,000
Book value at the end of year 1 = Cost of the delivery van - Year 1 depreciation expense = $36,000 - $16,000 = $16,000
Year 2 depreciation expense = Book value at the end of year 1 * Annual depreciation rate = $16,000 * 50% = $8,000
(3) Activity-based.
Depreciable amount = Cost of the delivery van – Salvage value = $32,000 - $6,000 = $26,000
Depreciation rate = Actual miles driven each year / Expected driven miles for four years ……….. (1)
Depreciation expense for each year = Depreciable amount * Depreciation rate …………… (2)
Using equations (2), we have:
Year 1 depreciation expense = $26,000 * (35,000 / 130,000) = $7,000
Year 1 depreciation expense = $26,000 * (38,000 / 130,000) = $7,600
Patterson Development sometimes sells property on an installment basis. In those cases, Patterson reports income in its income statement in the year of the sale but reports installment income by the installment method on the tax return. Installment income in 2021 was $240 million, which Patterson expects to collect equally over the next four years. The tax rate is 25%, but based on an enacted law, is scheduled to become 35% in 2023.
Patterson's pretax accounting income for the 2013 income statement was $530 million of this, $30 million is non-taxable revenue from proceeds of a life insurance policy. There were no differences between accounting income and taxable income other than those described above and no cumlative temporary differences existed at the beggining of the year:
1. Prepare the appropriate journal entry to record patterson's 2013 income taxes.
2. What is Patterson's 2013 net income?
Answer:
1. Debit Income tax expense for $143 million; Credit Deferred tax liability for $78 million; and Credit Income tax payable for $65 million.
2. Patterson's 2021 net income is $387.
Explanation:
Note: There is an error in the question because of date inconsistency. Therefore, 2021 upward is used in the answer to ensure date consistency.
1. Prepare the appropriate journal entry to record patterson's 2021 income taxes.
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of income tax payable and deferred tax liability.
The journal entry will look as follows:
Date General journal Debit ($'M) Credit ($'M)
31 Dec 2021 Income tax expense 143
Deferred tax liability 78
Income tax payable 65
(To record income tax payable.)
2. What is Patterson's 2021 net income?
This can be determined as follows:
Particulars ($'Million)
Pre accounting income 530
Income tax expense (143)
Net income 387

The cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs for the first department for the month is closest to:____.
a. $29.33.
b. $29.00.
c. $31.78.
d. $35.51.
Answer:
$31.28
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what The cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs for the first department for the month is closest to:
First step is to calculate the Total Conversion Cost
Total Conversion Cost=$253,900+$18,700
Total Conversion Cost=$$272,600
Second step is to calculate the Equivalent Units
Equivalent Units =( 7,700 x 100%) + (1,700 + 8,900 - 7,700 ×35%)
Equivalent Units =( 7,700 x 100%) + (2,900 x 35 %)
Equivalent Units =7,700+1,015
Equivalent Units = 8,715 units
Now let calculate the Cost per Equivalent Units using this formula
Cost per Equivalent Unit = Total Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units
Cost per Equivalent Unit = $272,600 ÷ 8,715 units
Cost per Equivalent Unit = $31.28
Therefore The cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs for the first department for the month is closest to:$31.28

Her net business profit on her Schedule C for the year is $196,000. What is her self-employment tax liability and additional Medicare tax liability for 2020
Answer:
Self employment tax liability = $22,323.97Additional Medicare tax liability = $0Explanation:
According to the IRS, the amount subject to self-employment tax is 92.35% of net income from self-employment for the year.
Alice's taxable income is:
= 92.35% * 196,000
= $181,006
Self employment tax-liability:
Social security tax for 2020 is 12.4% for the first $137,700 of income.
= 12.4% * 137,700
= $17,074.80
Medicare tax:
= 2.9% on taxable income
= 2.9% * 181,006
= $5,249.17
Self-employment tax is:
= 17,074.80 + 5,249.17
= $22,323.97
Additional Medicare tax applies on only amounts above $200,000 so it is $0 in this case.
