Answer:
behavioral finance
Explanation:
Behavioral finance focuses on how psychological factors influence markets, and how important they are. E.g. expectations can sometimes be more important than actual results. Stock prices are not necessarily determined using scientific methods, that is why each analyst has his/her own expected future price. No one can know for sure which price is correct, since each analyst will factor certain variables depending on his/her expectations about the future of the company, the stock market, the country's economy and even the world's economy.
Most people would agree that Warren Buffet is generally right when pricing stocks or adjusting stock prices, but even he is not 100% right all the time. Even personal issues affect how investors value stocks. E.g. if the market has been rising and the economy is strong, most investors will be confident and might decide to take higher risks. On the other hand, if the market is not doing so well, investors might be afraid, and they will seek risk free investments. That is the reason why US securities sometimes yield negative returns. It is simply illogical to invest money knowing that you will lose, just leave the money in the bank. But sometimes desperation leads to mistakes.

Explanation:
the options are missing:
A ) quantity demanded for those machines will increase.
B) demand for those machines will shift right.
C) quantity supplied of those machines will go up.
D) quantity supplied of those machines will decrease.
If production costs decrease, the supply curve will shift to the right, increasing the total quantity supplied while decreasing the sales price. Advances in technology increase productivity, which allows companies to supply a higher amount of goods at lower prices, which in turn increases the total quantity demanded for these goods.

On December 1, year 1, Lester Company issued at 103, four hundred of its 9%, $1,000 bonds. Attached to each bond was one detachable stock warrant entitling the holder to purchase 10 shares of Lester's common stock. On December 1, year 1, the market value of the bonds, without the stock warrants, was 95, and the market value of each stock purchase warrant was $50. The amount of the proceeds from the issuance that should be accounted for as the initial carrying value of the bonds payable would be:______
a. $387,280.
b. $391,400.
c. $400,000.
d. $412,000.
Answer:
Lester Company
The amount of the proceeds from the issuance that should be accounted for as the initial carrying value of the bonds payable would be:______
c. $400,000.
Explanation:
Bonds issued at 103, 9% $1,000
Number of bonds issued = 400
Face value of bonds = $1,000 * 400 = $400,000
Proceeds from Bonds = $1,030 * 400 = $412,000
Premium from bonds issue = $12,000 ($412,000 - 400,000)
Carrying amount = $400,000
$400,000 is the bonds payable at maturity. The $12,000 bonds premium will be amortized with the interest expense. This implies that for the life of the bonds, part of the $12,000 will be deducted from the annual interest expense.

Cooperative San José of southern Sonora state in Mexico makes a unique syrup using cane sugar and local herbs. The syrup is sold in small bottles and is prized as a flavoring for drinks and for use in desserts. The bottles are sold for $12 each. The first stage in the production process is carried out in the Mixing Department, which removes foreign matter from the raw materials and mixes them in the proper proportions in large vats. The company uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system.
A hastily prepared report for the Mixing Department for April appears below:
Units to be accounted for:
Work in process, April 1 (materials 90% complete; conversion 80% complete) 5,700
Started into production 34,100
Total units to be accounted for 39,800
Units accounted for as follows:
Transferred to next department 29,400
Work in process, April 30 (materials 70% complete; conversion 50% complete) 10,400
Total units accounted for 39,800
Cost Reconciliation Cost to be accounted for:
Work in process, April 1 $15,276
Cost added during the month 96,248
Total cost to be accounted for $111,524
Cost accounted for as follows:
Work in process, April 30 $20,384
Transferred to next department 91,140
Total cost accounted for $111,524
Required:
a. What were the Mixing Department's equivalent units of production for materials and conversion for April?
b. What were the Mixing Department's cost per equivalent unit for materials and conversion for April? The beginning inventory consisted of the following costs: materials, $10,545; and conversion cost, $4,731. The costs added during the month consisted of: materials, $64,649; and conversion cost, $31,599.
c. How many of the units transferred out of the Mixing Department in April were started and completed during that month?
d. The manager of the Mixing Department stated, "Materials prices jumped from about $1.65 per unit in March to $2.15 per unit in April, but due to good cost control I was able to hold our materials cost to less than $2.15 per unit for the month." Should this manager be rewarded for good cost control?
Answer:
a. EU:
materials = 29,400 + 7,280 = 36,680
conversion = 29,400 + 5,200 = 34,600
b. cost per EU:
materials = $75,194 / 36,680 = $2.05
conversion = $36,330 / 34,600 = $1.05
c. units started and completed during April = 23,700
d. no, he didn't do anything, When a company uses the weighted average process costing method, the cost of beginning WIP is used to determine the cost per equivalent unit. On the other hand, FIFO process costing method doesn't, it only considers costs incurred during the month to calculate cost per equivalent unit.
Explanation:
beginning WIP 5,700 $15,276
materials, $10,545
conversion cost, $4,731
units started 34,100
costs added during the month = $96,248
materials, $64,649
conversion cost, $31,599
units transferred out 29,400 $91,140
ending WIP 10,400 $20,384
materials 70% = 7,280 EU
conversion 50% = 5,200 EU
EU:
materials = 29,400 + 7,280 = 36,680
conversion = 29,400 + 5,200 = 34,600
total cost for materials = $64,649 + $10,545 = $75,194
total cost for conversion = $31,599 + $4,731 = $36,330
cost per EU:
materials = $75,194 / 36,680 = $2.05
conversion = $36,330 / 34,600 = $1.05
units started and completed during April = 29,400 - 5,700 = 23,700

Required:
What is the percentage of completion for:
a. Transferred-in costs and direct materials in beginning work-in-process inventory.
b. Transferred-in costs and direct materials in ending work-in-process inventory
Answer:
a. Beginning Work-In Process inventory
Transferred in Costs = 100%
All the transferred in costs will be accounted for in beginning Work-In Process inventory
Direct Materials = 0%
Conversion costs are not up to 90% so no Direct materials will be added.
b. Ending Work-In Process Inventory
Transferred in Costs = 100%
All the transferred in costs will be accounted for in ending Work-In Process inventory
Direct Materials = 0%
Conversion costs are not up to 90% so no Direct materials will be added.

Georgia-Atlantic's incremental borrowing rate is 10%, the same rate IC uses to calculate lease payment amounts. Amortization is recorded on a straight-line basis at the end of each fiscal year. The fair value of the equipment is $3 million.
Required:
a. Determine the present value of the lease payments at June 30, 2021 that Georgia-Atlantic uses to record the right-of-use asset and lease liability.
b. What pretax amounts related to the lease would Georgia-Atlantic report in its balance sheet at December 31, 2021
Answer:
1. $3,000,000
2. Liability $1,996,041
Asset$2,500,000
Explanation:

What are some of the government requirements imposed on a public corporation that are not imposed on a private, closely held corporation? Discuss pros and cons of each
Answer:
The government (the SEC) imposes several regulations on publicly traded corporations and requires mandatory reporting regarding their financial position, compensation to key employees, auditing and accounting procedures, conflicts of interest between upper management and shareholders, operating results, etc.
The pros of that large amount of reports is that it makes management accountable for what happens and it makes their job more transparent.
The downside is that they are expensive and time consuming.
On the other hand, privately held corporations decide what to disclose to the general public or the government. The IRS is something that cannot be avoided, but the SEC and its scrutiny is avoided.
Other advantages of publicly held corporations:
a publicly held corporation should be able to raise larger amounts of capitalsince the number of owners is larger, debt per ownership stake is generally much lowertop management tends to be more independent and suffer less pressures from individual stockholderspublicly trades corporations tend to receive more publicity and are better knownthey also attract more talentOther disadvantages of publicly held corporations:
publicly held corporation have a lot of owners and they all have the right to be informed about what happens within the corporation and vote to elect the board of directorssome decisions require that shareholders vote on them, e.g. mergersstock prices suffer from market riskgoing public is also expensiveIn Coronado Company, total materials costs are $38,000, and total conversion costs are $54,480.

Based on this, only 40% of the software expenditures are capitalized.
This outcome of an expansionary period would be considered negative for those living on a
fixed income
Unemployment
Full Employment
Peak
Inflation
Answer:
fixed income
Explanation:
During the expansion business cycle, economic activities are on the increase. Key economic indicators such as employment, incomes, business earnings, demand, and supply of goods and services show positive and progressive numbers. During expansion, the GDP growth rate is healthy, and the level of investment is high.
The expansion phase brings along inflationary pressure. At the peak or near the end of the expansion cycle, the inflation rate is always above the optimal level and sometimes in double digits. A high rate of inflation weakens the purchases power of the local currency. Employees on a fixed income will be disadvantaged. Their income will afford them fewer goods and services compared to the period before expansion.
Luke offered to sell his farm to Kent at $75,000, an offer which Kent declined. A week later, Luke offered to sell the farm for $65,000, stating that it was the final offer, it was valid for one month, and that he would not alter it. Two days later, Kent replied by saying that he was willing to pay $60,000 for the farm. A week after Luke received Kent's offer, Luke declined it. Ten days after that, Kent agreed to buy the farm for $65,000, but Luke refused to sell the farm. Kent decided to sue Luke for a breach of contract. The judge ruled in favor of Luke. Which one of the following is the reason for the ruling in Luke's favor?
a. Luke's original offer of $75,000 is still valid, even though rejected.
b. Kent acted in an incompetent manner with regards to the offer.
c. Kent's acceptance was past the set time period in the offer.
d. Kent's counteroffer of $60,000 had rendered the offer for $65,000 invalid.
Answer:
Option D
Explanation:
Kent's counteroffer of $60,000 had rendered the offer for $65,000 invalid
Reason- Whenever a counteroffer is made, it voids the earlier offers That's because real estate laws in all 50 states say that a seller who makes a written counteroffer automatically renders the buyer's original offer null and void.

Under the current policy of using a network of sales agents, calculate the Bonita Beauty Corporation
Answer: $56,040,000
Explanation:
Here is the question:
1.Under the current policy of using a network of sales agents, calculate the Bonita Beauty Corporation's break-even point in sales dollars for the year.
Sales = $75,000,000
Less: variable cost = $75,000,000 + ($75,000,000 × 8%) = $31,500,000 + $6,000,000 = $37,500,000
Contribution margin = $37,500,000
Fixed cost = 10,260,000 + 10,260,000 + 7,500,000 = $28,020,000
Operating income = $11,130,000
Contribution margin = 0.5
Break even point in sales will now be:
= Fixed cost/contribution margin ratio
= $28,020,000/0.5
= $56,040,000

Nell and Kirby are in the process of negotiating their divorce agreement. What should be the tax consequences to Nell and Kirby if the following, considered individually, became part of the agreement?
a. In consideration for her one-half interest in their personal residence, Kirby will transfer to Nell stock with a value of $200,000 and $50,000 of cash. Kirby's cost of the stock was $150,000, and the value of the personal residence is $500,000. They purchased the residence three years ago for $300,000.
Nell's basis for the stock is _______$ X
Kirby's basis in the house is ______$ X
b. Nell will receive $1,000 per month for 120 months. If she dies before receiving all 120 payments, the remaining payments will be made to her estate.
The payments (qualify, do not qualify) as alimony and are (included in, excluded from) Nell's gross income as they are received.
c. Nell is to have custody of their 12-year-old son, Bobby. She is to receive $1,200 per month until Bobby (1) dies or (2) attains age 21 (whichever occurs first). After either of these events occurs, Nell will receive only $300 per month for the remainder of her life.
$ X per month is alimony that is (included in, excluded from) Nell's gross income, and the remaining $ X per month is considered(child support, property settlement) and is (nontaxable, taxable) to Nell.
Answer:
a. In consideration for her one-half interest in their personal residence, Kirby will transfer to Nell stock with a value of $200,000 and $50,000 of cash. Kirby's cost of the stock was $150,000, and the value of the personal residence is $500,000. They purchased the residence three years ago for $300,000.
Nell's basis for the stock is $150,000
Kirby's basis in the house is $300,000
The transfer of property due to divorce is nontaxable. The $50,000 that Nell receives is generally considered alimony (for tax purposes).
b. Nell will receive $1,000 per month for 120 months. If she dies before receiving all 120 payments, the remaining payments will be made to her estate.
The payments NOT QUALIFY as alimony and are EXCLUDED FROM Nell's gross income as they are received.
The TC&JA changed alimony rules and made them not deductible for the spouse that gives it, and not taxable for the spouse that receives it. It now works in a similar manner than child support. It doesn't make any difference now if payments are alimony or not.
c. Nell is to have custody of their 12-year-old son, Bobby. She is to receive $1,200 per month until Bobby (1) dies or (2) attains age 21 (whichever occurs first). After either of these events occurs, Nell will receive only $300 per month for the remainder of her life.
$300 per month is alimony that is EXCLUDED FROM Nell's gross income, and the remaining $900 per month is considered CHILD SUPPORT and is NONTAXABLE to Nell.
Again, the TC&JA changed the rules, so alimony received is not taxable.
ogan Products computes its predetermined overhead rate annually on the basis of direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that 40,000 direct labor-hours would be required for the period's estimated level of production. The company also estimated $466,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead expenses for the coming period and variable manufacturing overhead of $3.00 per direct labor-hour. Logan's actual manufacturing overhead for the year was $713,400 and its actual total direct labor was 41,000 hours.
Required:
Compute the company's pre-determined overhead rate for the year.
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $14.65 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated direct labor hours= 40,000
Estimated fixed overhead= $466,000
Estimated variable overhead rate= $3.00 per direct labor-hour.
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (466,000/40,000) + 3
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $14.65 per direct labor hour
