Straight Industries purchased a large piece of equipment from Curvy Company on January 1, 2019. Straight Industries signed a note, agreeing to pay Curvy Company $480,000 for the equipment on December 31, 2021. The market rate of interest for similar notes was 9%. The present value of $480,000 discounted at 9% for five years was $311,967. On January 1, 2019, Straight Industries recorded the purchase with a debit to equipment for $311,967 and a credit to notes payable for $311,967. How much is the 2020 interest expense, assuming that the December 31, 2019 adjusting entry was made

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$30,604

Explanation:

The computation of the interest expense for the year 2020 is as follows:

2019 interest expense is

= Equipment amount × rate of interest

= $311,967 × 9%

= $28,077

The Dec 31 2019 liability of book value is

= $311,967 + $28,077

= $340,044

Now the interest expense for the year 2020 is

= $340,044 × 0.09

= $30,604

On January 1, 2012, Vaughn Manufacturing purchased for $768000, equipment having a useful life of ten years and an estimated salvage value of $42600. Vaughn has recorded monthly depreciation of the equipment on the straight-line method. On December 31, 2020, the equipment was sold for $125000. As a result of this sale, Vaughn should recognize a gain of

Answers

Answer:

Gain= $9,860

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchase price= $768,000

Salvage value= $42,600

Useful life= 10 years

First, we need to determine the annual depreciation and the accumulated depreciation at the moment of the sale:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (768,000 - 42,600) / 10

Annual depreciation= $72,540

Accumulated depreciation= 72,540*9= $652,860

If the selling price is higher than the book value, the company made a gain from the sale:

Book value= 768,000 - 652,860= $115,140

Gain/loss= 125,000 - 115,140

Gain= $9,860

In the short run, a supply shock will _________ the equilibrium level of prices and ___________ the equilibrium level output. reduce;raise raise;raise reduce;reduce raise;reduce

Answers

Answer: raise; reduce

Explanation:

A Supply shock is described as a situation where the supply of a good changes suddenly/ abruptly due to an unforeseen event.

Supply shocks can be positive but are usually negative so we will assume the supply shock is negative here.

If there is a negative supply shock, the amount of goods being produced will reduce abruptly which will force the supply curve to shift left.

It will then intercept the the demand curve at an equilibrium level that has a higher price and a lower quantity of output.

Think of it this way. Negative supply shock ⇒ less goods ⇒ scarcity ⇒ higher prices.

A manager wants to determine the number of containers to use for incoming parts for a kanban system to be installed next month. The process will have a usage rate of 71 pieces per hour. Because the process is new, the manager has assigned an inefficiency factor of .16. Each container holds 41 pieces and it takes an average of 50 minutes to complete a cycle. a-1. How many containers should be used

Answers

Answer:

the number of containers that should be used is 1.67 containers

Explanation:

The computation of the number of containers that should be used is as follows;

= Annual demand × time × (1 + inefficiency factor) ÷ holding pieces

= 71 × 0.83 × (1 + 0.16) ÷ 41

= 1.67 containers

Here The time is converted from minutes to hour i.e

= 50 minutes ÷ 60 minutes

= 0.83

Hence, the number of containers that should be used is 1.67 containers

alph owns a building that he is trying to lease. Ralph is a calendar-year, cash-method taxpayer and is trying to evaluate the tax consequences of three different lease arrangements. Under lease 1, the building rents for $500 per month, payable on the first of the next month, and the tenant must make a $500 security deposit that is refunded at the end of the lease. Under lease 2, the building rents for $5,500 per year, payable at the time the lease is signed, but no security deposit is required. Under lease 3, the building rents for $500 per month, payable at the beginning of each month, and the tenant must pay a security deposit of $1,000 that is to be applied toward the rent for the last two months of the lease. (Leave no answers blank. Enter zero if applicable.) a. What amounts are include

Answers

Answer:

if the tenant signs the lease contract 1 on December 1, Ralph will not include any income in his current tax year. Security deposits are not considered income. if the tenant signs lease contract 2, Ralph will have to include $5,500 in his income for the current year. if the tenant signs lease contract 3, Ralph will have to include $1500 in his income for the current year. The $1,000 security deposit represents the last two monthly lease payments.

Amy and Hobbes are married and file a joint return. Their three children are 7, 9, and 18 years old. Their modified AGI is $58,000, and their tax liability on Form 1040, line 12a, is $3,647. They have no other tax credits for the tax year. What is the amount of their child tax credit/credit for other dependents on Form 1040, line 13a

Answers

Answer:

The amount of their child tax credit is $4,000 ($2,000 for each qualifying child).

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Modified AGI = $58,000

Tax liability = $3,647

Dependent children = 3 (aged 7, 9, and 18)

Qualifying children for child tax credit = 2 (aged 7 and 9)

Child tax credit = $2,000 x 2 = $4,000

Refundable tax credit = $1,4000 x 2 = $2,800

This means that Amy and Hobbes will pay tax of $847 ($3,647 - $2,800).

b) However, they can only be refunded $2,800 ($1,400 for each qualifying child).  According to the IRS records, starting with the 2018 tax year until the end of 2025, the new $2,000-per-qualifying-dependent-child credit makes $1,400 of the Child Tax Credit refundable.

At the extreme, a firm that adheres to the conservative approach to finance current assets will finance all of its seasonal needs with long-term financing alternatives, thereby eliminating the need to use short-term financing. Such a firm will have extra permanent funds during off-peak periods, allowing it to store liquidity in the form of short-term investments during the off-season.a) trueb) false

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is A) True

Explanation:

Seasonal needs are short-term in nature. To service them using short-term funds would prove more expensive over the long run.

Long-term finance in most cases have the characteristics of being relatively cheaper than short-term finance.

Chief among the sources of short-term finance are:

trade credits, Commercial Bank overdraftsCommercial paper, promissory note, andloans that are secured

Short-term finances are usually less than a year. Whilst long-term finances generally span over one year.

Examples of long term finances are:

Equity Capitalgovernment debtBondsMortgages etc

Interest payable on long term debts are usually single-digit whilst those on short term loans are usually double-digit.

As indicated in the information provided, companies that keep extra "permanent" funds preserve its value by placing it in short term investments

Assume that the risk-free rate of interest is 2% and the expected rate of return on the market is 8%. A share of stock sells for $50 today. It will pay a dividend of $3 per share at the end of the year. Its beta is 1.2. What do investors expect the stock to sell for at the end of the year?

Answers

Answer: $51.60

Explanation:

The Gordon growth model can be used to calculate this however both the required return and the growth rate will need to be solved for.

Required return using CAPM;

= Risk free rate + beta * ( market return - risk free rate)

= 2% + 1.2 * ( 8% - 2%)

= 9.2%

Current price is $50. Using Gordon growth model, growth is;

Price = Next dividend / ( Required return - growth rate)

50 = 3 / ( 9.2% - g)

( 9.2% - g) * 50 = 3

( 9.2% - g) = 3/50

g = 9.2% - 3/50

g = 3.2%

Stock price at end of year using Gordon growth model;

= (3 * ( 1 + 3.2%)) / ( 9.2% - 3.2%)

= $51.60

GDP is $12 trillion this year in a closed economy. Consumption is $8 trillion and government spending is $2 trillion. Taxes are $0.5 trillion. How much is investment spending

Answers

Answer:

$2 trillion

Explanation:

In a closed economy GDP is $12 trillion

Consumption is $8 trillion

= $2 trillion

Hence investment spending is $2 trillion

Assume that the risk-free rate of interest is 6% and the expected rate of return on the market is 16%. A share of stock sells for $50 today. It will pay a dividend of $6 per share at the end of the year. Its beta is 1.2. What do investors expect the stock to sell for at the end of the year

Answers

Answer: Price of stock at year end =$53

Explanation:

we first compute the Expected rate of return using the CAPM FORMULAE that

Expected return =risk-free rate + Beta ( Market return - risk free rate)

Expected return=6% + 1.2 ( 16%-6%)

Expected return= 0.06 + 1.2 (10%)

Expected return=0.06+ 0.12

Expected return=0.18

Using the formulae Po= D1 / R-g  to find the growth rate

Where Po= current price of stock at $50

D1= Dividend at $6 at end of year

R = Expected return = 0.18

50= 6/ 0.18-g

50(0.18-g) =6

9-50g=6

50g=9-6

g= 3/50

g=0.06 = 6%

Now that we have gotten the growth rate and expected return, we can now determine the price the investors are expected to sell the stock at the end of year.

Price of stock = D( 1-g) / R-g

= 6( 1+0.06)/ 0.18 -0.06

=6+0.36/0.12

=6.36/0.12=  $53

The next two questions pertain to the problem below: You researched Jersey Kids Corp on Yahoo Finance and you found the following 2020 financial information: Annual dividends per share paid in 2020 - $3.00 Earnings per share - $2.50 Net Income - $2,500,000 Dividend growth rate for 2021 - 2% Investor's required rate of return - 10% 8. Approximately how much would you expect the current stock price of Jersey Kids Corp to be in 2021

Answers

Answer:

The current stock price of Jersey Kids Corp in 2021 is expected to be $39.02.

Explanation:

The current stock price of Jersey Kids Corp in 2021 can be calculated using the formula for the dividend discount model as follows:

P2021 = D2022 / (r - g) ............................ (1)

Where,

P2021 = current stock price in 2021 = ?

D2020 = Annual dividends per share paid in 2020 = $3.00

D2021 = Annual dividends per share paid in 2021 = D2020 * (1 + g) = $3 * (1 + 0.02) = $3.06

D2022 = Annual dividends per share paid in 2022 = D2021 * (1 + g) = $3.06 * (1 + 0.02) = $3.1212

r = required return = 10%. or 0.10

g = growth rate = 2% = 0.02

Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:

P2021 = $3.1212 / (0.10 - 0.02)

P2021 = $3.1212 / 0.08

P2021 = $39.02

Therefore, the current stock price of Jersey Kids Corp in 2021 is expected to be $39.02.

Answers

Answer: The cost of capital for a firm with no debt in its capital structure.

Explanation:

Leverage in finance refers to the use of debt. Unlevered capital therefore would refer to capital that is without debt which means that an unlevered cost of capital is one with no debt in its capital structure.

Companies with such a capital structure derive their capital 100% from Equity and as such do not pay interest. This means however, that they will not benefit from the tax shields that interest payments offer.
