Answer:
kyle does not owe the landlord any liability since the contract is void.
Explanation:
To answer this question i would first explain what disaffirmance means. the term means that to express oneself in a way which shows that they are no longer liable to certain bindings to a contract. A minor is someone who is considered to be younger than 18 years of age. Minors do not have certain rights and obligations and these includes certain civil and political obligations. As a minor kylie has no legal rights to enter a contract with the landlord. The law is protective of people of his age from certain ntypes of responsibilities due to their young age which makes them incapable of handling such. Apart from sports a minor cannot enter into a contract. also we have in this scenario that kyle returned the keys to the landlord and by this action he has shown that he is not bound by any contract with the landlord. since he paid his rent for the period of 4 months, the contract was disaffirmed when he took the keys back to the landlord.

The cost of equipment purchased by Bonita, Inc., on June 1, 2020, is $119,700. It is estimated that the machine will have a $10,500 salvage value at the end of its service life. Its service life is estimated at 7 years, its total working hours are estimated at 54,600, and its total production is estimated at 728,000 units. During 2020, the machine was operated 6,600 hours and produced 60,500 units. During 2021, the machine was operated 6,050 hours and produced 52,800 units. Compute depreciation expense on the machine for the year ending December 31, 2020, and the year ending December 31, 2021, using the following methods. (Round depreciation per unit to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25 and final answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 45,892.) 2020 2021 (a) Straight-line $ $ (b) Units-of-output $ $ (c) Working hours $ $ (d) Sum-of-the-years'-digits $ $ (e) Double-declining-balance (twice the straight-line rate)
Answer:
(a) Straight-line $ $
straight line depreciation expense = $109,200 / 7 = $15,600
depreciation expense 2020 = $15,600 x 7/12 = $9,100
depreciation expense 2020 = $15,600
(b) Units-of-output $ $
depreciation expense per unit of output = $109,200 / 728,000 = $0.15 per unit
depreciation expense 2020 = $0.15 x 60,500 = $9,075
depreciation expense 2020 = $0.15 x 52,800 = $7,920
(c) Working hours $ $
depreciation expense per working hour = $109,200 / 54,600 = $2 per working hour
depreciation expense 2020 = $2 x 6,600 = $13,200
depreciation expense 2020 = $2 x 6,050 = $12,100
(d) Sum-of-the-years'-digits
total years = 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 28
depreciation expense 2020 = $109,200 x 7/28 x 7/12 = $15,925
depreciation expense 2021 = ($27,300 - $15,925) + (109,200 x 6/28 x 7/12) = $25,025
(e) Double-declining-balance (twice the straight-line rate)
depreciation expense 2020 = $119,700 x 2/7 x 7/12 = $19,950
depreciation expense 2021 = ($34,200 - $19,950) + ($85,500 x 2/7 x 7/12) = $28,500
Explanation:
depreciable value = $119,700 - $10,500 = $109,200
useful life = 7 years
working hours = 54,600
production = 728,000 units
During the next two months, General Cars must meet (on time) the following demands for trucks and cars:
month 1—400 trucks, 800 cars;
month 2—300 trucks, 300 cars.
During each month, at most 1,000 vehicles can be produced.
Each truck uses 2 tons of steel, and each car uses 1 ton of steel.
During month 1, steel costs $400 per ton; during month 2, steel costs $600 per ton.
At most, 1,500 tons of steel may be purchased each month (steel may only be used during the month in which it is purchased).
At the beginning of month 1, 100 trucks and 200 cars are in inventory. At the end of each month, a holding cost of $150 per vehicle is assessed. Each car gets 20 mpg, and each truck gets 10 mpg. During each month, the vehicles produced by the company must average at least 16 mpg.
Formulate an LP to meet the demand and mileage requirements at minimum cost (include steel costs and holding costs).
Answer:
the formulation of the given linear program is,
Minimize
z = 400S1 + 600S2 + 150 ( LT1 + LT2 + LC1 + LC2)
Subject to the constraints
T1 + C1 ≤ I000
T2 + C2 ≤ 1000
2T1 + C1 = S1
2T2 + C2 = S2
100 + T1 = 400 + LT1
LT1 + LT2 = 300 + LT2
200 + C1 = 800 + LC1
LC1 + C2 = 300 + LC2
S1,S2 ≤ 1 500
4C1 - 6T1 ≥ 0
4C2 - 6T2 ≥ 0
All variables ≥ 0
Explanation:
Firstly;
Let T1 be number of trucks to be produced in month 1 and T2 be number of trucks to be produced in month 2.
Let C1 be number of cars to be produced in month 1 and C2 be number of cars to be produced In month 2.
Let S1 be tons of steel used in month 1 and S2 be tons of steel used in month 2.
Let LT1 be number of trucks in inventory at the end of month 1 and LT2 be number of trucks In inventory at the end of month 2.
Let LC1 be number of cars in inventory at the end of month 1 and LC2 be number of cars in inventory at the end of month 2.
Now the objective is to minimize the cost, so
z = [(cost of steel during month 1)(tons of steel used in month 1)] + [(cost of steel during month 2)( tons of steel used in month 2)] + [(holding cost at the end of each month )(trucks and cars in inventory at the end of each month)]
= 400S1 + 600S2 + 150 ( LT1 + LT2 + LC1 + LC2)
Thus, the objective function Is, Minimize
z = 400S1 + 600S2 + 150 ( LT1 + LT2 + LC1 + LC2)
Constraint1 Each month, the production capacity of the vehicle is 1000 vehicles.
Number of trucks produced in month 1 + number of cant produced in month 1 ≤ 1000
T1 + C1 ≤ 1000
Number of trucks produced in month 2 + number of cars produced in month 2 ≤ 1000
T2 + C2 ≤ 1000
Constraint2 Each month. each truck uses 2 tons of steel and each car uses 1 ton of steel.
[(Tons of steel used to produce truck in month 1) + (tons of steel used to produced cars in month 1)] = S1
2T1 + C1 = S1
[(Tons of steel used to produce truck in month 2) + (tons of steel used to produced cars in month 2)] = S2
2T2 + C2 = S2
Constraint3 At the beginning of month 1, 100 trucks are in inventory.
[100 trucks at the beginning are in inventory +
number of trucks produced in month 1] = [400 trucks are demanded in month 1 + number of trucks in inventory at the end of the month 1]
100 + T1 = 400 + LT1
[trucks at the beginning of month 2 in inventory + number of trucks produced in month 2 ] = [300 trucks are demanded in month 2 + number of trucks in inventory at the end of the month 2]
LT1 + T2 = 300 + LT1
Constraint 4 At the beginning of month 1, 200 cars are in Inventory
[200 cars at the beginning are in inventory + number of cars produced in month 1] = [800 cars are demanded in month 1 + number of cars in inventory at the end of the month 1]
200 + C1 = 800 + LC1
[cars at the beginning of month 2 in inventory + number of cars produced in month 2 ] = [300 cars are demanded in month 2 + number of cars in inventory at the end of the month 2]
LC1 + C2 = 300 + LC2
Constraint 5 At most, 1,500 tons of steel can be purchased each month.
S1 ≤ 1,500
S2 ≤ 1,500
Constraint 6 Each month, vehicle produced by company must average at least 16mpg.
[{{(mpg of trucks)(number of trucks produced in month 1)} + {(mpg of cars)(number of cars produced in month 1)}} / {(number of trucks produced in month 1 ) + ( number of Cars produced in month 1)}] ≥ 16
(10T1 + 20C1 / T1 + C1) ≥ 16
4C1 - 6T1 ≥ 0
[{{(mpg of trucks)(number of trucks produced in month 2)} + {(mpg of cars)(number of cars produced in month 2)}} / {(number of trucks produced in month 2 ) + ( number of Cars produced in month 2)}] ≥ 16
(10T2 + 20C2 / T2 + C2) ≥ 16
4C2 - 6T2 ≥ 0
Therefore, the formulation of the given linear program is,
Minimize
z = 400S1 + 600S2 + 150 ( LT1 + LT2 + LC1 + LC2)
Subject to the constraints
T1 + C1 ≤ I000
T2 + C2 ≤ 1000
2T1 + C1 = S1
2T2 + C2 = S2
100 + T1 = 400 + LT1
LT1 + LT2 = 300 + LT2
200 + C1 = 800 + LC1
LC1 + C2 = 300 + LC2
S1,S2 ≤ 1 500
4C1 - 6T1 ≥ 0
4C2 - 6T2 ≥ 0
All variables ≥ 0
After graduating, you might decide to start a small business. As discussed in this chapter, owners of any business need to know how to calculate the cost of their products. In fact, many small businesses fail because they don't accurately calculate their product costs, so they don't know if they are making a profit or losing money—until it's too late.Suppose that you decide to start a landscape business. You use an old pickup truck that you've fully paid for. You store the truck and other equipment in your parents' barn, and you store trees and shrubs on their land. Your parents will not charge you for the use of these facilities for the first two years, but beginning in the third year they will charge a reasonable rent. Your mother helps you by answering phone calls and providing customers with information. She doesn't charge you for this service, but she plans on doing it for only your first two years in business.In pricing your services, should you include charges for the truck, the barn, the land, and your mother's services when calculating your product cost?InstructionsWrite a response indicating your position regarding this situation. Provide support for your view.
Answer:
When the value of the service ends, it will be necessary to include the charges for the truck, the granary and the land. It is not necessary to include your mother's service charges, as she is not charging for the service.
Explanation:
Setting up your own business can be quite a big challenge and you need a lot of control and planning so you don't have to lose money. One of the biggest challenges of becoming an entrepreneur is to price the service performed. As was said in the question above, many people do not know how to place a value on the service produced, mainly because they are unable to identify the expense for service production.
In summary, the expense to produce the service must take into account all charges related to any element necessary to perform the service. Thus, we can consider that in the case shown in the question above, it will be necessary for you to include expenses with the truck (gasoline, repairs, exchange of parts, etc.), with the rent of the granary, with the rent of the land and with the gratification of any employee. Since your mother is not charging for her services, this charge should not be included, however, your mother will only be in this service for two years. If the person replacing your mother charges for the service, this should be added to the cost.
A manufacturing company produces products 1, 2, and 3. The three products have the following resource requirements and produce the following profit:
Profit Labor (hr/unit) Material (lb/unit) Profit ($/unit)
1 5 4 $3
2 2 6 5
3 4 3 2
At present, the firm has a daily labor capacity of 240 available hours and a daily supply of 400 pounds of material. Management has developed the following set of goals, arranged in order of their importance to the firm:
1. Because of recent labor relations difficulties, management wants to avoid underutilization of normal production capacity.
2. Management has established a satisfactory profit level of exist500 per day.
3. Overtime is to be minimized as much as possible.
4. Management wants to minimize the purchase of additional materials to avoid handling and storage problems.
Required:
Formulate a goal programming model (multi-criteria model) to determine the number of each product to produce to best satisfy the goals.
di+, di- are the deviation variables for i-th objectives.
Product_1, product_2, product_3 are respectively the products 1,2 and 3 to be produced in a day. Those are the Standard variables
goal: (1/400)*d4+ (2/240)*d3+ (3/500)*d2-+ Min (4/240)*d1-
variables are equal or bigger than zero
400 = 5*product_1 + 6*product_2 + 3*product_3 - d4- + d4+
240 = 5*product_1 + 2*product_2 + 4*product_3 - d3- + d3+
240 = 5*product_1 + 2*product_2 + 4*product_3 + d1- - d1+

Determine the amount of tax liability in the following situations. In all cases, the taxpayer is using the filing status of married filing jointly. Use the appropriate Tax Tables or Tax Rate Schedules.
1. Taxable income of $62,449 that includes a qualified dividend of $560.
2. Taxable income of $12,932 that includes a qualified dividend of $322.
3. Taxable income of $144,290 that includes a qualified dividend of $4,384. (Round your intermediate computations to 2 decimal places and final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)
4. Taxable income of $43,297 that includes a qualified dividend of $971.
5. Taxable income of $262,403 that includes a qualified dividend of $12,396. (Round your intermediate computations to 2 decimal places and final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)
Answer:
1. Taxable income of $62,449 that includes a qualified dividend of $560.
tax liability = $1,975 + [12% x ($62,449 - $19,750)] = $7,098.88
2. Taxable income of $12,932 that includes a qualified dividend of $322.
tax liability = $12,932 x 10% = $1,293.20
3. Taxable income of $144,290 that includes a qualified dividend of $4,384.
tax liability = $9,235 + [22% x ($144,290 - $80,250)] + ($4,384 x 15%) = $23,981.40 ≈ $23,981
4. Taxable income of $43,297 that includes a qualified dividend of $971.
tax liability = $1,975 + [12% x ($43,297 - $19,750)] = $4,800.64 ≈ $4,801
5. Taxable income of $262,403 that includes a qualified dividend of $12,396.
tax liability = $29,211 + [24% x ($262,403 - $171,050)] + ($12,396 x 15%) = $52,995.12 ≈ $52,995
Explanation:
I used the 2020 tax bracket. Everyone earning over $78,750 but less than $488,850 must pay a 15% tax rate for their qualified dividends.

3. Continuous review inventory control is being applied to purchase motors for an electric fan manufacturer. Demand is uniformly distributed between 500 and 600 motors per week. Each order costs $250 to prepare, place and receive. Motors cost $2.75/unit and the holding cost rate is 1% per week. Management proposes using the EOQ order quantity and setting reorder points to ensure a 97% fill rate. Find the imputed(implied) cost of a shortage and the expected number of shortages per year.
Answer:
The expected no. of shortage will be "0.27".
Explanation:
The given values are:
Ordering cost,
O = $250
Holding cost (i),
= 1% (per week)
= 52% (a year)
Cost of goods (C),
= $2.75
The average annual demand is:
[tex]=\frac{600+500}{2}\times 52 \ weeks[/tex]
[tex]=28600 \ units[/tex]
Now,
⇒ [tex]EOQ=\sqrt{(2\times D\times \frac{O}{C}\times i)}[/tex]
[tex]=\sqrt{2\times 18600\times \frac{250}{2.75}\times 52 \ percent}[/tex]
[tex]=\sqrt{10000000}[/tex]
[tex]=3162.27[/tex]
In a year, the number of orders will be:
⇒ [tex]\frac{D}{EOQ}=\frac{28600}{3162.27}[/tex]
[tex]=9.04 \ i.e., \ 9 \ orders[/tex]
Demand mean will be:
= [tex]\frac{500+600}{2}[/tex]
= [tex]550 \ units \ Demand \ SD[/tex]
= [tex]max[\frac{(Upper \ limit - Mean)}{3} , \frac{(mean-lower \ limit)}{3} ][/tex]
= [tex]max [\frac{50}{3} ,\frac{50}{3} ][/tex]
= [tex]16.66 \ units[/tex]
So, in a year, the expected number of the shortages will be:
⇒ [tex]Number \ of \ orders \ in \ a \ year\times fill \ rate[/tex]
⇒ [tex]9\times (1-97 \ percent)[/tex]
⇒ [tex]0.27[/tex]
Kale, a California CPA, is a sole practitioner who prepared 500 tax returns in 20X6. At the end of 20X6 she took over a tax practice from a close friend who died suddenly and will now prepare nearly 900 returns during 20X7. Due to the increased work load and her inability to hire qualified help, Kale because so busy that she forgot to complete all of her required continuing professional education. When it became time to renew her license in May 20X7 she realized that she was 30 hours short of the total hours required, she had not taken enough accounting and auditing hours, and it was the renewal period in which she was required to take her California Regulatory Review course which she had not completed within the previous six years. Given the situation, what must Kale do
Answer:
Kale should apply to have her license put on inactive status while she completes her CPE requirements. During thatperiod of time she may not engage in the practice of public accounting
Explanation:
Acceptance. Amy Kemper was seriously injured when her motorcycle was struck by a vehicle driven by Christopher Brown. Kemper’s attorney wrote to Statewide Claims Services, the administrator for Brown’s insurer, asking for "all the insurance money that Mr. Brown had under his insurance policy." In exchange, the letter indicated that Kemper would sign a "limited release" on Brown’s liability, provided that it did not include any language requiring her to reimburse Brown or his insurance company for any of their incurred costs. Statewide then sent a check and release form to Kemper, but the release demanded that Kemper "place money in an escrow account in regards to any and all liens pending." Kemper refused the demand, claiming that Statewide’s response was a counteroffer rather than an unequivocal acceptance of the settlement offer. Did Statewide and Kemper have an enforceable agreement? Discuss.
Answer:
In the clarification section down, the definition including its concern is mentioned.
Explanation:
In terms of strategy, two important components necessarily entail an "Agreement."
Offer AcceptanceStep 1: Approval + Bid = Agreement
Step 2: Agreement + Enforceability = Contract.
Throughout water to establish a legal Arrangement or Contract, those would be the two underlying equations to be met. Going to come to something like the case's reality, The counsel for Kemper addressed to Statewide Claims Management, Brown's insurance company agent, calling for "all the premium money something which Mr. Brown seems to be under his insurance contract." Statewide decided to send the document and perhaps freedom of the individual to Kemper throughout reaction to the aforementioned request, however, they pointed to Kemper's current requirement that she should put money during an emergency fund concerning anything and everything outstanding liens.Kemper disagreed with all of the above assumptions as well as denied the proposal, arguing that perhaps the response from Nationwide was a counteroffer. If we correctly examine the aforementioned situation, without even any discussion, we will realize that it is indeed a pure "Counter Bid." Why whenever the offender becomes encouraged with just 2 choices, YES/NO, whenever an Offeror makes an object to something like the Offeree. and then when the promise offers a conditional response, it destroys the initial offer so it corresponds to Counter Offer.In quite a similar manner, the Nationwide reaction to Kemper's letter here alone leads to "Counter Bid" and becomes an Absolute acceptance, but not. i.e., there is no approval of an invitation, and no deal remains.There is, however, no "Acceptance" to either the original Bid, and therefore no binding mediation agreements between Nationwide and Kemper have been established.
Deepa Dalal opened a free-standing radiology clinic. She had anticipated that the costs for the radiological tests would be primarily fixed, but she found that costs increased with the number of tests performed. Costs for this service over the past nine months are as follows:
Month Radiology Test Total Cost
January 2,800 $135,500
February 2,600 $135,060
March 3,100 $175,000
April 3,500 $170,600
May 3,400 $176,900
June 3,700 $186,600
July 3,840 $174,450
August 4,100 $195,510
September 3,450 $85,300
1) Compute the cost formula for radiology services using the high-low method.
2) Calculate the predicted cost of radiology services for October for 3,500 tests using the formula found in Requirement 1.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To calculate the fixed and variable cost under the high-low method, we need to use the following formulas:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (195,510 - 135,060) / (4,100 - 2,600)
Variable cost per unit= $40.3
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 195,510 - (40.3*4,100)
Fixed costs= $30,280
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 135,060 - (40.3*2,600)
Fixed costs= $30,280
Now, the total cost for 3,500 tests:
Total cost= 30,280 + 40.3*3,500
Total cost= $171,330

Which of the following is the best example of an ethical statement?
Answer:
Ethical dilemmas are situations in which there is a difficult choice to be made between two or more options, neither of which resolves the situation in a manner that is consistent with accepted ethical guidelines. When faced with an ethical dilemma, a person is faced with having to select an option that doesn’t align with an established code of ethics or societal norms, such as codes of law and religious teachings, or with their internal moral perceptions of right and wrong. Explore ethical dilemma examples to see how you might handle these difficult situations.
Explanation:
Ethical Dilemma Situations
Ethical dilemmas occur all too frequently in everyday life. There is rarely a clear answer regarding right and wrong. Instead of being able to rely on external standards, people have to rely on their morals and values to navigate such situations. A storytelling approach, as introduced by Lawrence Kohlberg in the 1930s, is often used to encourage people to think through possible outcomes and consequences of ethical dilemmas.
This is one of the most extreme moral dilemma examples, as well as an ethical dilemma. The choice is between actively causing one person’s death or allowing people (including oneself) to die. Someone following a utilitarian approach to ethics would likely choose to eliminate the person who is stuck, as this philosophy is based on choosing actions that result in the greatest good for the greatest number of people. Someone who focuses primarily on the sanctity of each individual life, however, would not consider harming the person who is stuck to be a viable option.
Following the Rules
One of the most important characteristics of an effective leader is treating people equitably. This involves fairness and consistency, including regards to applying the rules to everyone equally. What should a coach do when a few superstar players get caught breaking rules that should lead to their suspension from the team immediately before a big game that is very important to the team?
If the star players don’t play, there is a good chance the team will lose. If the team has to win this game to advance to the championship game, should that affect the coach’s decision?
If the coach doesn’t apply appropriate consequences to the actions of the players who broke the rules, what lesson are those players learning? Will they continue to break rules?
What about the other players who do follow the rules. Will they learn that the rules are just suggestions and feel like they don’t need to comply in the future?
What if one of the players who broke the rules will miss a chance to be seen by professional scouts if he doesn’t play in the game?
What if the team’s school will earn a large amount of money from television coverage of the big game if the team goes to the championship?
What if the coach is set to earn a big bonus or significant pay increase if the team advances to the championship game?

g Phoenix industries has pulled off a miraculous recovery. Four years ago it was near bankruptcy. Today, it was announced a $1 per share dividend to be paid a year from now, the first dividend since the crisis. Analysts expect dividends to increase by $1 a year for another 2 years. After the third year dividends growth is expected to settle down to a more moderate longterm growth rate of 8%. If the firm's investors expect to earn a return of 16% on this stock, what must the price be
Answer:
Market Share price $ 31,12
Explanation:
The price of the stock will be the same as the present value of their dividends:
Year Dividend Presnet Value
First year $1,00 $ 0,8621
Second $2,00 $ 1,7241
Third $3,00 $ 2,5862
Total Value $ 5,1724
Now, we solve for the horizon value
3 x (1.08) / (0.16 - 0.08) = 40,50
And, as this is three year ahead we also discounted like the other dividends:
[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]
Maturity 40,50
time 3,00
rate 0,16
[tex]\frac{40,5}{(1 + 0,16)^{3} } = PV[/tex]
PV 25,95
And last, we add up the horizon with the other dividends:
5.17 + 25,95 = 31,12

What are the major objectives of macroeconomics? Write a brief definition of each of these objectives. Explain carefully why each objective is important?
Answer:
Some of the major objectives of macroeconomics are:
Economic growth: more specifically, non-inflationary, sustainable economic growth, in order to raise the living standards of the people by increasing the production of goods and services.Low inflation: inflation is the general rise in the price level of goods and services of a economy within a period of time. High inflation has shown to be damaging to the economy, and this is why one of the most important macroeconomic goals is to keep inflation low.Low unemployment: unemployment is very damaging for both individuals and society. Unemployed people are likely to be unable to live by themselves. Maintaining unemployment low is one of the most important macroeconomic objectives and it often conflicts with the goal of keeping inflation low, at least in the short-term.Balanced Budget: macroeconomists try to advise governments to keep low levels of debt, and to not spend too much more than they earn from tax revenue, public entreprise profits, and other sources of public income.
Modern Flooring is considering a new product line. The new line would require $134,000 of fixed assets and net working capital of $24,000. The firm will apply straight-line depreciation to a zero salvage value over three years. The new line is expected to produce an operating cash flow of $35,000 the first year with that amount decreasing by 10 percent annually for two years before the new line will be discontinued. The fixed assets can be sold for $25,000 at the end of the project and all net working capital will be recovered. What is the net present value of the new line at a discount rate of 11.5 percent and a tax rate of 35 percent
Answer:

Racket Corporation and Laocoon Corporation create Raccoon Corporation. Racket transfers $600,000 in assets for all of Raccoon's common stock. Racket distributes its remaining assets ($300,000) and the Raccoon common stock to its shareholder, Mia, for all her stock in Racket (basis $950,000) and then liquidates. Laocoon receives all the Raccoon preferred stock for its $400,000 of assets. Laocoon distributes its remaining assets ($300,000) and the Raccoon preferred stock to its shareholder, Carlos, for all his stock in Laocoon (basis $200,000) and then liquidates. What type of acquisition (if any) is this an example of?
Answer:
Type A reorganization
Explanation:
Type A reorganizations are known as statutory mergers or consolidations. This transaction involves 2 corporations, but one of them (Racket) will absorb the other one (Laocoon).
In this case, Mia doesn't have to recognize any loss or gain resulting from this merger, but Carlos has to recognize a gain equal to the remaining assets that were distributed ($300,000).

Explanation:
Lear Inc. has $940,000 in current assets, $420,000 of which are considered permanent current assets. In addition, the firm has $740,000 invested in fixed assets.
A. Lear wishes to finance all fixed assets and half of its permanent current assets with long-term financing costing 9%. The balance will be financed with short-term financing, which currently costs 5%. Lear’s earnings before interest and taxes are $340,000. Determine Lear’s earnings after taxes under this financing plan. The tax rate is 30%.
B. As an alternative. Lear might wish to finance all fixed assets and permanent current assets plus half of its temporary current assets with long-term financing and the balance with short-term financing. The same interest rates apply as in part a. Earnings before interest and taxes will be $340,000. What will be Lear's earnings after taxes? The tax rate is 30%.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
A. Current assets = permanent current assets + temporary current assets
Temporary current assets:
= $940,000 - $420,000
= $520,000
Short-term interest expense:
= 5% × [$520,000 + ½ ($420,000)]
= 5% ($520,000 + $210,000)
= 5% × ($730,000)
= 0.05 × $730,000
= $36,500
Long-term interest:
= 9% × [$740,000 + ½ ($420,000)]
= 9% × ($740,000 + $210,000)
= 9% × $950,000
= 0.09 × $950,000
= $85,500
Total interest expense:
= $36,500 + $85,500
= $122,000
Earnings before interest and taxes $340,000
Less: Interest expense = $122,000
Earnings before taxes = $218,000
Less: Taxes (30%) = $65,400
Earnings after taxes = $152,600
B. Short term interest expense:
= $260,000 × 5%
= $260,000 × 0.05
= $13,000
Long term interest expense:
= ($740,000 + $420,000 + $260,000) × 9%
= $1,420,000 × 0.09
= $127,800
Total interest expense:
= $13000 + $127800
= $140,800
Earnings before interest and taxes $340,000
Less: Interest expense = $140,800
Earnings before taxes = $199,200
Less: Taxes (30%) = $59760
Earnings after taxes = $139440

Answer:
0.80
Explanation:
The computation of the debt to equity ratio is shown below:-
Total debt = Current Liabilities + Long - term liabilities
= $200,000 + $40,000
= $240,000
Total Equity = Shareholders’ equity = $300,000
Now,
Debt to equity ratio = Total Debt ÷ Total Equity
= $240,000 ÷ $300,000
= 0.80

Andy works at AZ Corporation. He has been working very hard and feels he deserves a pay hike. He wants to seek a meeting with Anna, the manager of AZ Corp., and ask for a raise. Since Anna is busy preparing for the annual board meeting, Andy decides to delay the meeting with Anna for a while. Which of the following dimensions to context influenced Andy's interaction with Anna? Group of answer choices The physical context The social context The chronological context The cultural context
The correct answer is C. The chronological context
Explanation:
The chronological context is related to the time during which a situation or communication occurs; this includes the age, year, season, month, day, etc. In the case presented, the chronological context is some days before the annual board meeting. Moreover, this condition of time is the one that makes Andy delay her meeting with Anna because she knows how busy is Anna during this time of the year, and based on this, she considers it is better to wait before asking her for a rise. According to this, the dimension that influences Andy is the chronological context.
A small nation of 10 people idolizes the TV show The Voice. All they produce and consume are karaoke machines and CDs, in the following amounts: Karaoke Machines CDs Quantity Price Quantity Price (Dollars) (Dollars) 2020 20 50 60 5 2021 21 70 80 6 Using a method similar to that used to calculate the consumer price index, the percentage change in the overall price level is . (Note: Use 2020 as the base year, and fix the basket at 2 karaoke machines and 6 CDs.) Using a method similar to that used to calculate the GDP deflator, the percentage change of the overall price level is . (Note: Again, use 2020 as the base year.) Which of the following statements is correct
Answer:
1. Using a method similar to that used to calculate the consumer price index, the percentage change in the overall price level is;
Value of market basket of the good in 2020
= (50 * 2) + (5 * 6)
= $130
Value of market basket of the good in 2021
= (70 * 2) + (6 * 6)
= $176
CPI in 2020
= 130/ 130 * 100
= 100
CPI in 2021
= 176 / 130 * 100
= 135.38
Percentage change
= (135.38 - 100)/100
= 35.38%.
2. Using a method similar to that used to calculate the GDP deflator, the percentage change of the overall price level is ;
Nominal GDP in 2020 = (50 * 20) + (5 * 60) = $1,300
Nominal GDP in 2021 = (70 * 21) + (6 * 80) = $1,950
Real GDP using 2020 prices
Real GDP in 2020 = (50 * 20) + (5 * 60) = $1,300
Real GDP in 2021 = (50 * 21) + (5 * 80) = $1,450
GDP deflator in 2020 = (Nominal GDP in 2020 / Real GDP in 2020) * 100 = (1,300 / 1,300) * 100 = 100
GDP deflator in 2021 = (Nominal GDP in 2021 / Real GDP in 2021) * 100 = (1,950 / 1,450) * 100 = 134.48
Percentage Change = [(134.48 - 100) / 100] * 100
= 34.48%
2) If a country, like the US, can produce all of the goods and services needed by
their citizens, why would they want to specialize in producing only some products
and trade with other countries for other products wanted by their citizens?
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Specialization means a company or country concentrating on producing few commodities. In practice, a state or company will focus on the products it can produce more efficiently. It means focusing on goods they can manufacture at a lower cost compared to other countries.
The USA can specialize in the goods and services it can produce at a lower cost than other nations. It can then export these products to other countries at competitive prices. For products that are costly to manufacture in the USA, it is prudent to import them from countries that can produce them at lower costs.
Some products manufactured in other countries at a lower cost may be sold in the USA at fair prices than when produced in the USA.

Answer:
$15.76
Explanation:
beginning WIP 500 units
materials 85% complete, so 15% added during the period (EUP during current month = 75 units)
conversion costs 55% complete, so 45% added during the period (EUP during current month = 225 units)
units started 7,000
units transferred out 6,100
units started and transferred out = 6,100 - 500 = 5,600 (EUP = 5,600 units)
ending WIP 1,400 units
materials 60% complete (EUP = 840 units)
conversion costs 50% complete (EUP = 700 units)
materials cost for the month = $102,700
total EUP for the month = 6,515 units
total cost per EUP for materials = $102,700 / 6,515 = $15.7636 ≈ $15.76
