C. The full sales price of the land, $9,250, would be shown as a cash inflow from operating activities on the statement of cash flows
Answers
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. Sales = $27000
Less: sales returned = -$660
Less: discount at 2% = ($27000 - $660) × 2% = -$526.8
Net sales = $25813.2
b. Net sales = $25813.2
Less: cost of goods sold = $15000 - $400 = -$14600
Gross profit = $11213.2
Operating expense:
Less: Selling and administrative expenses = -$2835
Operating income = $8378.2
Non-operating items:
Less: Interest expense = ($200
Add: Gain on land Sales = $900
Net Income= $9078.2
c. The interest expense be shown on the statement of cash flows in the operating expenses section. It'll be recorded in the operating activities.
d. The sale of the land would be under the investing activity as it's capital asset of the business. Therefore, the full sales price of the land, $9,250, would be shown as a cash inflow from investing activities on the statement of cash flows.

Organizations are often divided into units or departments. Which of these is NOT a common way to organize a company?
Group of answer choices
By function
By product
By employee compensation
By customer
Answers
Answer: By employee compensation
Explanation:
In an organization, it should be noted that an organization can be grouped based on the roles performed e.g in an organization, you can find he employees that are related to accounting of the company in the account department, employees involved in sales in the sales department etc.
Employee can also be grouped based on the product sold or based on customers but employees can't be grouped based on employee compensation. Employee compensation is the compensation that an employee gets for working for a particular company.
The following inventory valuation errors have been discovered for Knox Corporation:
The 2015 year-end inventory was overstated by $23,000
The 2016 year-end inventory was understated by $61,000
The 2017 year-end inventory was understated by $17,000
The reported income before taxes for Knox was:
Year: Income before Taxes:
2015 $138,000
2016 $254,000
2017 $168,000
Required:
Compute what income before taxes for 2015, 2016, and 2017 should have been after correcting for the errors.
Answers
Answer:
Income +/- inventory adjustment
2015: 138,000 - 23,000 = 115,000
2016: 254,000 + 61,000 = 315,000
2017: 168,000 + 17,000 = 185,000
Explanation:
Inventory Identity:
Beginning + Purchases = Ending + COGS
As the mistake is on the right side it compensates by the other component which is COGS
When the inventory is overstated this means COGS is understated.
We didn't record the cost of good sold thefore our gross profit is higher making the net income higher.
When the inventory is understated this means COGS is overstated.
We record more cost of goods sold thefore our gross profit is lower making the net income fewer as well.

Every year, management and labor renegotiate a new employment contract by sending their proposals to an arbitrator, who chooses the best proposal (effectively giving one side or the other $3 million). Each side can choose to hire, or not hire, an expensive labor lawyer (at a cost of $300,000) who is effective at preparing the proposal in the best light. If neither hires a lawyer or if both hire lawyers, each side can expect to win about half the time. If only one side hires a lawyer, it can expect to win nine tenths, or 0.9, of the time. Use the given information to fit in the expected payoff, in dollars, for each cell in the matrix.

Answers
Answer: hire; hire
Explanation:
The Nash equilibrium for this game is for Management to hire a lawyer, and for Labor to hire a lawyer.
At the Nash Equilibrium, there is no incentive for either player to deviate from the strategy they are pursuing as it is the best(most beneficial) one given the strategy of the other player and a situation where there is no cooperation.
If management decides not to hire a lawyer and labor does, management will lose 0.9 of the time, this applies to labor as well. Neither of them will agree to having no lawyer as there is no cooperation and if one does so, the other will seize the opportunity to hire a lawyer and make more.

Answers
Answer:
Passing the legislation is INEFFICIENT, and if everyone in Romange shared equally in both its benefits and its costs, the Senate will vote AGAINST the legislation.
Costs are higher than benefits, so it should be rejected.If the costs of the legislation are concentrated among a few people instead of widespread among the population, those people will be willing to spend up to 34 MILLION lobbying the Senate against the legislation.
The more widely spread are the benefits of the legislation, the LOWER is the likelihood of lobbying for the legislation by those who will incur its benefits.
Sadly, when public goods tend to benefit everyone equally, people do not pay attention to them. One sad example, is the current state of the country's road system which is probably the worst among developed nations. Since everyone benefits form roads, everyone complains, but the vast majority of the people do not do anything but complain to themselves or their families when travelling. This is something that has been going on for decades now, and really very few people care. Even public health care, which is one of the most basic duties of a government is something that only a few really pay attention to. Only in Switzerland (which subsidizes and deducts all health spending), does a similar system works. In no other developed, or even in most developing nations would their citizens even consider not having 100% public health care.Bernie and Phil's Great American Surplus store placed an ad in the Sunday Times stating, "Next Saturday at 8:00 A.M. sharp 3 brand new mink coats worth $5,000 each will be sold for $500 each!

For example if a person offers to pay anyone to mow their lawn. Any person that agrees to the job does not have a commitment to perform it.
The only commitment is that the offeror will pay once the lawn is mowed.

SY Manufacturers (SYM) is producing T-shirts in three colors: red, blue, and white. The monthly demand for each color is 3,487 units. Each shirt requires 0.75 pound of raw cotton that is imported from the Luft-Geshfet-Textile (LGT) Company in Brazil. The purchasing price per pound is $1.55 (paid only when the cotton arrives at SYM's facilities) and transportation cost by sea is $0.70 per pound. The traveling time from LGT’s facility in Brazil to the SYM facility in the United States is two weeks. The cost of placing a cotton order, by SYM, is $186 and the annual interest rate that SYM is facing is 32 percent of total cost per pound.
a. What is the optimal order quantity of cotton? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
Optimal order quantity pounds
b. How frequently should the company order cotton? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Company orders once every months
c. Assuming that the first order is needed on 1-Jul, when should SYM place the order?
17-Jun
1-Jul
15-Jul
d. How many orders will SYM place during the next year? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Number of orders times
e. What is the resulting annual holding cost? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
Annual holding cost $ per year
f. What is the resulting annual ordering cost?
Annual ordering cost $
g. If the annual interest cost is only 5 percent, how will it affect the annual number of orders, the optimal batch size, and the average inventory?
Answers
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. The optimal order quantity can be calculated as:
= √2DS/H
where
D = 3 × 12 × 3487 × 0. 75
= 94149
Total cost incurred during purchase
= $1.55 + $0.70
= $2.25
Setup cost (S) = $186
Holding cost
= 32% × $2.25
= 0.32 × $2.25
= $0.72
Optimal order quantity
= √(2 × 94149 × 186)/0.72
= 6974.50
b. This will be calculated as:
Annual demand / EOQ
= 94149/6974.50
= 13.50
The company should order cotton 13.5 times per year.
c. Since the first order is needed on 1-July and lead time is 2 weeks, SYM should place the order before 17th June.
d. This will be:
= Annual demand / EOQ
= 94149/6974.50
= 13.5 orders
e. The resulting annual holding cost will be:
= 0.72 × (6974.50/2)
= 0.72 × 3487.25
= $2510.82
f. The resulting annual ordering will be:
= 94149/6974.50 × $186
= 13.5 × $186
= $2511

Due to erratic sales of its sole product—a high-capacity battery for laptop computers—PEM, Inc., has been experiencing difficulty for some time. The company’s contribution format income statement for the most recent month is given below:
Sales (13,200 units × $40 per unit) $528,000
Variable expenses 316,800
Contribution margin 211,200
Fixed expenses 235,200
Net operating loss $(24,000)
1. Compute the company’s CM ratio and its break-even point in both unit sales and dollar sales.
2. The president believes that a $6,800 increase in the monthly advertising budget, combined with an intensified effort by the sales staff, will result in an $89,000 increase in monthly sales. If the president is right, what will be the effect on the company’s monthly net operating income or loss?
3. Refer to the original data. The sales manager is convinced that a 10% reduction in the selling price, combined with an increase of $31,000 in the monthly advertising budget, will double unit sales. What will the new contribution format income statement look like if these changes are adopted?
4. Refer to the original data. The Marketing Department thinks that a fancy new package for the laptop computer battery would help sales. The new package would increase packaging costs by $0.60 cents per unit. Assuming no other changes, how many units would have to be sold each month to earn a profit of $4,100?
5. Refer to the original data. By automating, the company could reduce variable expenses by $3 per unit. However, fixed expenses would increase by $55,000 each month.
A. Compute the new CM ratio and the new break-even point in both unit sales and dollar sales.
CM ratio 45%
Break-even points in units 183
Break-even points in dollars 7,305
B. Assume that the company expects to sell 20,700 units next month. Prepare two contribution format income statements, one assuming that operations are not automated and one assuming that they are.
C. Would you recommend that the company automate its operations?
1. Yes
2. No
Answers
Answer:
1. Compute the company’s CM ratio and its break-even point in both unit sales and dollar sales.
CM ratio = 211,200 / 528,000 = 39.96%
break even point in $ = 235,200 / 39.96% = $588,588
break even point in units = 588,588 / 40 = 14,714.7 ≈ 14,715 units
2. The president believes that a $6,800 increase in the monthly advertising budget, combined with an intensified effort by the sales staff, will result in an $89,000 increase in monthly sales. If the president is right, what will be the effect on the company’s monthly net operating income or loss?
total revenue = $617,000
variable expenses = $617,000 x 60.04% = $370,446.80
contribution margin = $246,553.20
fixed expenses = $242,000
operating profit = $4,553.20
3. Refer to the original data. The sales manager is convinced that a 10% reduction in the selling price, combined with an increase of $31,000 in the monthly advertising budget, will double unit sales. What will the new contribution format income statement look like if these changes are adopted?
total revenue = $950,400
variable expenses = 26,400 x $24.016 = $634,022.40
contribution margin = $316,377.60
fixed expenses = $266,200
operating profit = $50,177.60
4. Refer to the original data. The Marketing Department thinks that a fancy new package for the laptop computer battery would help sales. The new package would increase packaging costs by $0.60 cents per unit. Assuming no other changes, how many units would have to be sold each month to earn a profit of $4,100?
variable expenses per unit = $24.016 + $0.60 = $24.616
contribution margin per unit = $40 - $24.616 = $15.384
break even point + $4,100 gains = 239,300 / 15.384 = 15,555.122 ≈ 15,556 units
5. Refer to the original data. By automating, the company could reduce variable expenses by $3 per unit. However, fixed expenses would increase by $55,000 each month.
a) contribution margin per unit = $18.984
break even point = 290,200 / 18.984 = 15,286.56 ≈ 15,287 units
break even point in $ = 15,287 x $40 = $611,480
b) not automated automated

c) 2. No
In order for the automation process to be profitable, the number of sales units must increase a lot, and since the company is struggling to sell enough units, I doubt it will work.
1. CM ratio = 211,200 / 528,000 = 39.96%
break even point in $ = 235,200 / 39.96% = $588,588
break even point in units = 588,588 / 40 = 14,714.7 ≈ 14,715 units
2. The total revenue = $617,000
variable expenses = $617,000 x 60.04% = $370,446.80
contribution margin = $246,553.20
fixed expenses = $242,000
operating profit = $4,553.20
3.The entire revenue = $950,400
variable expenses = 26,400 x $24.016 = $634,022.40
contribution margin = $316,377.60
fixed expenses = $266,200
operating profit = $50,177.60
4. variable expenses per unit = $24.016 + $0.60 = $24.616
contribution margin per unit = $40 - $24.616 = $15.384
break even point + $4,100 gains = 239,300 / 15.384 = 15,555.122 ≈ 15,556 units
5. a) contribution margin per unit = $18.984
break even point = 290,200 / 18.984 = 15,286.56 ≈ 15,287 units
break even point in $ = 15,287 x $40 = $611,480
b) not automated automated
sales revenue $828,000 $828,000
variable costs $497,131.20 $435,031.20
contribution margin $330,868.80 $392,968.80
fixed costs $235,200 $290,200
operating income $95,668.80 $102,768.80

Answers
Answer:
1. If Darnell buys S bowls of salad and P slices of pizza, then the total amount of money he spends ( E ) can be represented by the equation;
E = 4S + 2P
2. Now rearrange the equation you wrote above so that P is written in terms of E and S. The quantity of pizza he buys can be represented by the equation;
E = 4S + 2P
2P = E - 4S
P = (E - 4S)/2
3. Budget = $40.00. No salad purchased
Pizza = (E - 4S)/2
= (40 - 0)/2
= 20 pizzas
Budget = $40.00. 4 salads purchased
Pizza = (E - 4S)/2
= (40 - 4 * 4)/2
= 12 pizzas
Budget = $40.00. 0 Pizzas.
Salads = 40/4

Alan inherited $100,000 with the stipulation that he "invest it to financially benefit his family." Alan and his wife Alice decided they would invest the inheritance to help them accomplish two financial goals: purchasing a Park City vacation home and saving for their son Cooper’s education.
Vacation Home Cooper’s Education
Initial investment $50,000 $50,000
Investment horizon 5 years 18 years
Alan and Alice have a marginal income tax rate of 32 percent (capital gains rate of 15 percent) and have decided to investigate the following investment opportunities.
Required:
Determine the two annual after-tax rate of return.
Answers
Answer:
the question is missing the information about potential investments, so I looked for a similar one:
5 Years 18 Years
Corporate bonds 5.75% 4.75%
(ordinary interest taxed annually)
Dividend-paying stock 3.50% 3.50%
(no appreciation and dividends are taxed at 15%)
Growth stock FV $65,000 FV $140,000
Municipal bond (tax-exempt) 3.20% 3.10%
Alan and Alice should invest in growth stocks since they yield the highest after tax return:
5 years:
FV of growth stocks = $65,000
taxable gain = $65,000 -$50,000 = $15,000 x 15% = $2,250
net gain = $15,000 - $2,250 = $12,750
to determine the yield rate we can use the future value formula:
62,750 = 50,000 x (1 + r)⁵
(1 + r)⁵ = 62,750 / 50,000 = 1.255
⁵√(1 + r)⁵ = ⁵√1.255
1 + r = 1.046
r = 4.6% after tax yield per year
18 years:
FV of growth stocks = $140,000
taxable gain = $140,000 -$50,000 = $90,000 x 15% = $13,500
net gain = $90,000 - $13,500 = $76,500
to determine the yield rate we can use the future value formula:
126,500 = 50,000 x (1 + r)¹⁸
(1 + r)¹⁸ = 126,500 / 50,000 = 2.53
¹⁸√(1 + r)¹⁸ = ¹⁸√2.53
1 + r = 1.053
r = 5.3% after tax yield per year
Assignment 3 Suggested Length: 750 to 1000 words Ethical Theories to Apply: Golden Rule and Virtue Ethics
1. Task You work in the Ethics Department for ABC Company (ABC). Your department is dedicated to advising its employees about their ethical obligations in the corporate setting. You are an internal consultant who provides advice and most importantly, recommendations for action to employees of the firm. All communications you receive in this capacity are confidential. Luke, an employee of ABC, comes to you with the following scenario and asks for your advice. He wants to fully consider the situation. Your task is to advise and recommend a course of action based on the specified ethical lenses and facts as given. Below are the facts that Luke provides to you. ***** Luke has been asked to work on a project that involves developing land recently purchased by ABC to build an adult entertainment retail store. According to the plan, the land is located on the corner of the neighborhood where Owen, Luke’s brother, lives. Luke knows that as soon as the plans for the store are made public, property values for the surrounding neighborhood will decrease significantly. ABC plans to publicly announce the project one month from today. Luke is concerned about his obligations of confidentiality to his company. However, Luke is also very close to Owen, who recently told Luke that he received an offer to sell his house at an "okay" price given the current real estate market. Owen is considering selling but hasn’t made any final decision yet. He wonders if he might get a better offer a few years from now when the real estate market improves. What is the ethical issue, why is this an issue, and what should Luke do about it?
***** For assignment 3, prepare a memo, setting out your analysis and recommendations, that considers ONLY the following two theories: Golden Rule and Virtue Ethics.
Answers
Answer:
My answer is a little long, so you will probably need to summarize it.
The ethical issue here is that you work for a company that is about to open a store that will make the price of your brother's house to plummet. Your brother has the option to sell his house right now, but if you tell him to accept the offer, you will be breaching your employment duties.
Is your duty towards your brother more or less important than the duty towards the company?
We can analyze both possible outcomes:
You do not tell your brother and he does not sell his house. After the store is announced, your brother's house will decrease in value. That means that your brother will lose a lot of money, but you complied with the obligation of confidentiality that you have with your company. The downside is that once your brother knows about it, he will hate you for the rest of his life. And the hatred will probably not be limited to only your brother, most, if not all of your family will be very unpleased and terribly mad at you. Your family will probably wonder why your parents didn't abort you?, or are you adopted?, or do you simply hate humanity? On the other hand, you decide that you value your brother and whole family, and you decide to tell him to accept the offer. You will have breached your confidentiality obligation towards the company, but you will have literally saved your brother's financial situation, and you will have saved any type of relationship that you have with your family. Will the company be hurt by your decision? No, it will not make any difference to them. They are announcing the decision in just a few days, so anything that you tell your brother will not make any difference. Since your brother will try to sell his house, he will keep the information to himself, since telling other people will only ruin any possible sale.If we follow the golden rule: do to others what you would like them to do to you, then obviously we should tell Owen about our company's plans. If we were Owen, that information would be really important for us.
If we follow virtue ethics, then it gets a little bit more complicated. Is telling Owen about the new store a virtuous action? Would a virtuous person do it? To be honest, I'm not really sure what exactly is a virtuous person.
What I understand is that virtue ethics is based on who you are, and not what you really will do. So, the question here would be: Are you a good (or virtuous) brother? Are you a good (or virtuous) employee? In this case, you cannot be a virtuous employee and a virtuous brother at the same time, so it depends on which you value the most. Going back to the possible outcomes, I would prefer to be a virtuous brother in this case.

What was the intrinsic value of SmileWhite Co. stock when the analyst was evaluating the stock (that is in year 2008)
Answers
Answer: $28.96
Explanation:
Using the Dividend discount model, the intrinsic value will be a sum of the present values of the dividends in addition to the present value when the dividends become constant.
First use CAPM to calculate the required return
= Risk free rate + Beta * (market return - risk free rate)
= 4.5% + 1.15 * (14.5% - 4.5%)
= 16%
The required return will be used to discount the dividends.
2009 dividends = 1.72 * 1.12 = $1.93
2010 = 1.93 * 1.12 = $2.16
2011 = 2.16 * 1.12 = $2.42
Dividends grow at 9% from 2011
Stock terminal value in 2011 = (2.42 * 1.09) / (16% - 9%) = $37.68
[tex]= \frac{1.93}{1.16} + \frac{2.16}{1.16^{2} } + \frac{2.42}{1.16^{3} } +\frac{37.68}{1.16^{3}}\\\\= 28.959397679[/tex]

Robert needs his daily fix of coffee in the mid-afternoon and visits different coffee shops that will give him as much utility as possible, given his $20/month food budget. On Monday, the Blue Coffee Shop was selling espresso shots for $3 each and Robert added 3 shots to his cappuccino. By Friday, the Purple Coffee Shop offered espresso shots for $2 each, while all other prices remained the same, so Robert was bold and added 4 espresso shots to his hot beverage.
Required:
Given this information, plot Robert's demand curve for espresso shots.
Answers
Answer:
I drew Robert's demand curve for espresso shots assuming that it was a linear curve since the information contained in the question is limited to that.
A demand curve generally is downward sloping, since an increase in price will usually result in a higher quantity demanded (at least for normal goods).
