Answer:

New Building Acquired at Carrying Amount  $90,000 (debit)

Accumulated Depreciation on Building given up $60,000 (debit)

Cost of Building given up $150,000 (credit)

Explanation:

Where the exchange transaction lacks commercial substance, the asset that is acquired is measured at the carrying amount (Cost less Accumulated Depreciation) of the asset given up, and no gain or loss cannot be estimated reliably.

The Building with Carrying Amount of $90,000 ($150,000 cost - $60,000 accumulated depreciation).

Thus the Journal will be :

Ivanhoe Corporation acquired End-of-the-World Products on January 1, 2017 for $6500000, and recorded goodwill of $1220000 as a result of that purchase. At December 31, 2018, the End-of-the-World Products Division had a fair value of $5540000. The net identifiable assets of the Division (excluding goodwill) had a fair value of $4838000 at that time. What amount of loss on impairment of goodwill should Ivanhoe record in 2018

Answers

Answer:

Ivanhoe Corporation

The amount of loss on impairment of goodwill that Ivanhoe should record in 2018 is:

$518,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Goodwill on acquisition = $1,220,000

December 31, 2018:

Fair value of Investee (End-of-the-World Products Division) = $5,540,000

The fair value of the net identifiable assets of the Division (excluding goodwill) = $4,838,000

Goodwill = $702,000 ($5,540,000 - $4,838,000)

Impairment loss = $518,000 ($1,220,000 - $702,000)

b) A Goodwill impairment loss is the recognized reduction in the carrying amount of this intangible asset that is triggered by a decline in its fair value.  When the fair value of acquired Goodwill declines below its carrying amount, Ivanhoe Corporation is expected to write off the difference (the impairment loss) in its income statement for 2018.

Answers

Answer:

$94,354.29

Explanation:

Depreciation rate = 100/10*2 = 20%

2019 Depreciation = 1290000 * 20% = $258000

2020 Depreciation = 1290000 * 80% * 20% = $206400

2021 Depreciation = 1290000 * 80% * 80% * 20% = $165120

Accumulated depreciation (2019 to 2021) = $258000 + $206400 + $165120 = $629,520

Depreciation expense for 2022 = (1290000 - 629,520) / 7

Depreciation expense for 2022 = 660480 / 7

Depreciation expense for 2022 = $94,354.29

And,

Interest expense:

= Borrowed amount × rate of interest × given months ÷ total months

a performance appraisal

Explanation:

Looking at the information above, it is possible to say that Chief Brandon conducted a performance appraisal with Liam.

Performance appraisal is a method that the organization uses to provide feedback to employees on their performance in fulfilling their tasks and obligations in their position at the company.

This review can happen in different periods of time according to the need perceived by each organization, and its central objective is to make an in-depth analysis of the employee's performance, so that possible occurrences in relation to their work are justified and so that the employee can check how your overall performance is doing and look for ways to improve your performance and become more productive and motivated in your position.

MANAGING THE HEWLETT-PACK..
William R. Hewlett and David Packard, two organisational leaders who demonstrated
a
Eventually they built a very successful company that now produces more than 10,000
products, such as computers, peripheral equipment, test and measuring instruments, and
handheld calculators. Perhaps even better known than its products is the distinct managerial
style preached and practiced at Hewlett-Packard (HP). It is known as the HP way.
The values of the founders - who withdrew from active management in 1978 - still
permeate the organization. The HP way emphasizes honesty, a strong belief in the value of
people, and customer satisfaction. The managerial style also emphasizes an open-door policy,
which promotes team effort. Informality in personal relationships is illustrated by the use of
first names. Management by objectives is supplemented by what is known as managing by
wandering around. By strolling through the organization, top managers keep in touch with
what is really going on in the company.
This informal organizational climate does not mean that the organization structure has
not changed. Indeed, the organizational changes in the 1980s in response to environmental
changes were quite painful. However, these changes resulted in extraordinary company
growth during the 1980s.
Questions :
1.Is the Hewlett-Packard way of managing creating a climate in which employees are
motivated to contribute to the aims of the organization? What is unique abot the HP way?
2.Would the HP managerial style work in any organization? Why, or why not? What are
the conditions for such a style to work​

Answers

Answer:

Hewlett-Packard (HP)

1. Yes.  The HP way of managing is creating a climate in which employees are motivated to contribute to the organizational goals, aims, and objectives.  The HP way encourages informality in personal relationships.

2. The HP managerial style would work in any organization if the organization's culture is developed to accept the style.  This implies that if the organization's culture does not promote informality, it may not work.

Explanation:

Every organization develops its own cultural practices to suit its climate and structure.  These will detect how the organization achieves its objectives and goals.  Some organizations develop very formal structures, while others work better in informal climates.  The choice depends on the business strategy that the organizations adopt to pursue their business goals.

Eaglet Corporation has the following target and costs associated with its capital structure. Based on these parameters what is Eaglet Corporations weighted average cost of capital?
Target common equity weight: 80 percent
Target debt weight: 20 percent
Cost of equity: 15 percent
Cost of debt: 5 percent
Tax rate: 35 percent
A) WACC = 12.65 percent
B) WACC = 8.45 percent
C) WACC = 13.00 percent

Answers

Answer: A) WACC = 12.65 percent

Explanation:

WACC = (Cost of equity * weight of equity) + (weight of debt * cost of debt * (1 - tax rate)

= (0.15 * 0.8) + (0.2 * 0.05 * (1 - 0.35))

= 0.12 + 0.0065

= 12.65%

Germany is capital abundant country and Japan is labor abundant country. If computers are produced mostly by capital and beer is produced mostly by labor, the H-O model predicts that Question 22 options: Japan will export computers in exchange for beer. Germany will export computers in exchange for beer. Germany is too small to be of economic interest to Japan. Computers and beer don't mix, so trade cannot increase either country's well-being.

Answers

Answer:

If computers are produced mostly by capital and beer is produced mostly by labor, the H-O model predicts that

Germany will export computers in exchange for beer.

Explanation:

The H-O model or Heckscher-Ohlin theory is an economic model about the comparative advantages of nations in international trade.  The model tries to explain the equilibrium of trade existing between two countries that have varying specialties and natural resources.  According to the H-O model, countries export more goods and services for which they have plenty resources than they do for goods and services for which they have scarce resources.  For example, if a country has capital in abundance, it will export more of capital-intensive products while it will import labor-intensive products, because it has scarce labor resources.

A producer of felt-tip pens has received a forecast of demand of 41,000 pens for the coming month from its marketing department. Fixed costs of $26,000 per month are allocated to the felt-tip operation, and variable costs are 35 cents per pen.
a. Find the break-even quantity if pens sell for $1 each.
b. At what price must pens be sold to obtain a monthly profit of $16,000, assuming that estimated demand materializes?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The break even quantity is

= Fixed cost ÷ (selling price per unit - variable cost per unit)

= $26,000 ÷ ($1 - 0.35)

= $26,000 ÷ 0.65

= 40,000

b. The price is

Let us assume the price per pen  be x

As we know that

Profit = Revenue - costs

$16,000 = (x)(41,000) - $26,000 - .35(41,000)

$16,000 = 41,000x - 40,350

$56,350 = 41,000x

x = $1.37

Suppose your company needs $43 million to build a new assembly line. Your target debt-equity ratio is .65. The flotation cost for new equity is 6 percent and the flotation cost for debt is 2 percent. Your boss has decided to fund the project by borrowing money because the flotation costs are lower and the needed funds are relatively small. a. What do you think about the rationale behind borrowing the entire amount?

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Debt = 0.65

Weight = 39.39%

Cost for debt = 2%

Product = 39.39% × 2%

= 0.3939 × 0.02

= 0.007878

Equity = 1.00

Weight = 60.61%

Cost for equity = 6%

Product = 60.61% × 6%

= 0.6061 × 0.06

= 0.036366

Weighted average floatation cost:

= 0.007878 + 0.036366

= 0.044244

= 4.42%

The true cost of the building will then be:

= Funds needed / (1 - Floatation cost)

= $43,000,000 / (1 - 0.044244)

= $43,000,000 / 0.955756

= $44,990,562

On December 31 of the current year, the unadjusted trial balance of a company using the percent of receivables method to estimate bad debt included the following: Accounts Receivable, debit balance of $98,900; Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, credit balance of $1,131. What amount should be debited to Bad Debts Expense, assuming 4% of outstanding accounts receivable at the end of the current year are estimated to be uncollectible

Answers

Answer:

the bad debt expense is $2,825

Explanation:

The computation of bad debt expense is shown below:

= Debit balance of account receivable × given percentage - credit balance of allowance for doubtful debts

= $98,900 × 4% - $1,131

= $3,956 - $1,131

= $2,825

Hence, the bad debt expense is $2,825

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

And, the same is to be considered

HP20 Corporation is considering permanently shutting down a department that has an annual contribution margin of $30,000 and $70,000 in annual fixed costs.
Of the fixed costs, $12,000 cannot be avoided.
What would be the annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for HP20 Corporation. if the company shuts down the department?

Answers

Answer: Financial advantage of $28,000

Explanation:

The segment margin is;

= Contribution margin - fixed costs + unavoidable fixed cost

= 30,000 - 70,000 + 12,000

= -$28,000

Eliminating the department would eliminate the negative segment margin of $28,000 which means that net income will increase by that much making it a financial advantage.

Mr. Dealer bought a fleet of SUVs (sport utility vehicles) from General Motors (GM) on credit, GM agreeing not to assign the resulting account receivable without Dealer's consent. GM later, without debtor dealer's consent, assigned the account to The Bank of New York (BNY) for consideration. Dealer made payments to BNY, but claimed damages from GM for breach of contract. 1. Could Dealer collect damages from GM

Answers

Answer:

Yes, Dealer could collect damages from GM because basically GM breached the contract. Any time a contract is breached, the non-breaching party can sue. But the real question here is what amount could the court assign to Dealer as compensation for damages incurred. If you want to rephrase this question, it would be: What damages did Dealer suffer due to GM's breach.

If the damages are not significant, then the court will probably assign some amount for nominal damages. To be honest, the greatest expenses here are actually the legal costs of the lawsuit. Unless Dealer can prove that assigning the contract actually hurt them (which I doubt), then the court will assign a small amount. Sometimes nominal damages can be very small and mostly symbolic, e.g. $1.

The Dealer could not collect damages from GM because he did not suffer any harm from the assignment of the account receivable.

The Dealer could have refused to pay the Bank of New York and claimed a breach of contract against GM Motors.  But it was not a material breach.

Secondly, the sales agreement with GM Motors only required the debtor dealer's consent before the assignment.  It did not forbid GM Motors from assigning the account.  It does not seem that any penalty was agreed upon for breach of this clause.

Thus, the Debtor Dealer could not collect damages from GM Motors because he cannot substantially prove that GM's action put him in financial loss.

You are trying to estimate the value of the XYZ Inc. company, as of the end of 2019. The after-tax cashflow from assets (FCFF) for the year ending 2019 is $126 million. The estimated WACC is 11%. What comes closest to the current value of the firm XYZ if the expected after-tax cashflows to assets for the next two years are expected to grow at 15% and then grow at a lower rate of 2% thereafter forever?

Answers

Answer:

$ 1,798.56  

Explanation:

The current value of the firm is the discounted after-tax cashflow from assets  as well as the terminal after-tax cashflows as shown below:

2020 FCFF=$126 million*(1+15%)=$144.90  million

2021 FCFF=$126 million*(1+15%)^2=$166.64  million

Terminal value=2021 FCFF*(1+g)/(WACC-g)

g=terminal growth rate of FCFF=2%

WACC=11%

Terminal value=$166.64  million*(1+2%)/(11%-2%)=$ 1,888.53  million

current value of firm=$144.90  million/(1+11%)^1+$166.64  million/(1+11%)^2+$ 1,888.53  million/(1+11%)^2

current value of firm=$ 1,798.56
