The common stock of Leaning Tower of Pita Inc., a restaurant chain, will generate payoffs to investors next year, which depend on the state of the economy, as follows: Dividend Stock Price Boom $ 10 $ 200 Normal economy 6 90 Recession 0 0 The company goes out of business if a recession hits. Assume for simplicity that the three possible states of the economy are equally likely. The stock is selling today for $80.
a. Calculate the rate of return to Leaning Tower of Pita shareholders for each economic state. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.) Rate of return Boom Normal economy Recession a-2.
b. Calculate the expected rate of return and standard deviation of return to Leaning Tower of Pita shareholders. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.) Expected return Standard deviation
Answer:
a) Boom = 162.50%
Normal =20.00%
Recession = - 100.00%
b) Expected return = 27.50%
Standard deviation = 107.30%
Explanation:
a) To find the rate of return for each economy state, let's use:
Rate of return = (Dividend +Stock price next year-stock price today)/stock price today
i) For Boom:
[tex] \frac{10 + 200 - 80}{80} = 1.625 [/tex] = 162.50%
ii) Normal:
[tex]\frac{6 + 90- 80}{80} = 0.2 [/tex] = 20.00%
iii) Recession :
[tex]\frac{0 + 0 - 80}{80} = - 1 [/tex] = -100%
b) To calculate the expected rate of return, let's use:
Expected return = Sum of expected return in different scenario / number of economy states
[tex] = \frac{162.5 + 20 - 100}{3} = 27.50[/tex]
Standard deviation:
To find the standard deviation, let's use:
Standard deviation = √[(sum of square of expected return in each scenario -average return)/n]
[tex] = \sqrt{\frac{(162.50-27.50)^2+(20-27.50)^2+(-100-27.50)^2}{3}} [/tex]
[tex] = \sqrt{\frac{(135)^2 + (-7.50)^2 + (-127.50)^2}{3}} [/tex]
[tex] = \sqrt{\frac{18225+56.25+16256.25}{3} [/tex]
= 107.30%
Standard deviation = 107.30%
You would like to retire in 30 years. The expected rate of inflation is 2% per year. You currently have a standard of living that requires $7940 of monthly expenses. Assuming you want to maintain the same standard of living in retirement, what are your monthly expenses expected to be the first year of retirement
Answer:
You would need $14,382.21 to maintain your purchasing power.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
You would like to retire in 30 years. The expected rate of inflation is 2% per year. You currently have a standard of living that requires $7940 of monthly expenses.
The inflation rate has the same intrinsic behavior as an investment with a compounded interest rate.
We need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 7,940*(1.02^30)
FV= $14,382.21
You would need $14,382.21 to maintain your purchasing power.
Grape Inc. uses the percentage of credit sales method of estimating doubtful accounts. The Allowance for Doubtful Accounts has an unadjusted credit balance of $3,500 and the company had $180,000 of net credit sales during the period. Grape has experienced bad debt losses of 4% of credit sales in prior periods. After making the adjusting entry for estimated bad debts, what is the ending balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts accou
Answer:
$9,700
Explanation:
The calculation of ending balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts account is shown below:-
Ending balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts account = Net credit sales × Credit sales percentage + Credit balance
= $180,000 × 4% + $2,500
= $7,200 + $2,500
= $9,700
So, for computing the ending balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts account we simply applied the above formula.
At the end of the prior year, Atoka Industries reported the following account balances: Common Stock ($0.01 par value) $ 2,000 Additional Paid-in Capital 1,000,000 Retained Earnings 1,400,000 Treasury Stock 780,000 The treasury stock arose from a purchase of 10,000 shares of common stock for $78 per share. If the 10,000 treasury shares are issued for $50 per share in the current year, what journal entry must be prepared to record the transaction
Answer and Explanation:
According to the scenario, journal entry of the given data are as follow:-
Journal Entry
Cash A/c (10,000 ×$50) Dr. $500,000
Additional paid in capital A/c $280,000
To Treasury stock A/c(10,000 × $78) $780,000
(Being the reissue of treasury shares is recorded)
For recording this we debited the cash as it increased the cash and debited the additional paid in capital as it reduced the stockholder equity and credited the treasury stock
Answer and Explanation:
The Journal entry is shown below:-
Cash Dr, $500,000
(10,000 × $50)
Additional Paid in Capital Dr, $280,000
To Treasury Stock $780,000
($10,000 × $78)
(Being treasury stock is recorded)
Therefore If the shares from treasury stock are reissued at a cost that is lower than its cost, so the balance is debited to the additional paid-in capital.

A work center uses kanban containers that hold 200 parts. To produce enough parts to fill a container, 60 minutes of setup plus run time are needed. Moving the container to the next workstation, waiting time, processing time at the next work station, and return of the empty container take 120 minutes. There is an overall demand rate of 10 units per minute. Calculate the number of containers needed for this process.
Answer:
9 containers
Explanation:
Data given
Container holds (capacity) = 200 units
Demand rate per minute = 10 units
The computation of number of containers needed is shown below:-
Time to fill container = Setup time + Processing time
= 60 + 120
= 180 minutes
Number of containers (n) = (Demand × Time to fill container) ÷ Capacity of the container
= (10 × 180) ÷ 200
= 1,800 ÷ 200
= 9 containers
Therefore for computing the number of containers we simply applied the above formula.

Mercredi, Inc., is considering investing in automated equipment with a ten-year useful life. Managers at Highpoint have estimated the cash flows associated with the tangible costs and benefits of automation, but have been unable to estimate the cash flows associated with the intangible benefits. Using the company's 14% required rate of return, the net present value of the cash flows associated with just the tangible costs and benefits is a negative $182,560. How large would the annual net cash inflows from the intangible benefits have to be to make this a financially acceptable investment? (Ignore income taxes.)
Answer:
$35,000
Explanation:
The computation of the annual net cash inflows from the intangible benefits is shown below:
= Tangibles cost and benefits ÷ PVIFA factor at 14% for 10 years

Bedrock Company reported a December 31 ending inventory balance of $412,000. The following additional information is also available: The ending inventory balance of $412,000 included $73,200 of consigned inventory for which Bedrock was the consignor. The ending inventory balance of $412,000 included $24,400 of office supplies that were stored in the warehouse and were to be used by the company's supervisors and managers during the coming year. Based on this information, the correct balance for ending inventory on December 31 is: Multiple Choice $303,000 $358,400 $387,600 $338,600 $241,000
Answer:
Bedrock Company
Ending Inventory is $387,600.
Explanation:
The inventory already includes the consigned inventory. Since, Bedrock the consignor, its inclusion is correct. In consignment accounting, consigned inventory belongs to the consignor, who is the legal owner. The consignee is only in physical possession and not the legal owner.
The ending inventory should not include office supplies since they would be used during the coming year.
As of December 31, 2019, Sheridan Company had $3500 of raw materials inventory. At the beginning of 2019, there was $3000 of materials on hand. During the year, the company purchased $315000 of materials; however, it paid for only $252500. How much inventory was requisitioned for use on jobs during 2019
Answer: $314,500
Explanation:
When calculating how much of a material of any sort was used, the following formula should be used,
= Beginning inventory + Purchases - Ending inventory
This is the same formula largely used to calculate Cost of Goods sold.
Here, the figure to be concerned about is the actual materials used not the ones paid for.
Plugging in figures into the formula then,
= 3,000 + 315,000 - 3,500
= $314,500
Thus $314,500 was the inventory requisitioned for use on jobs during 2019.
Consider a portfolio manager with a $20,500,000 equity portfolio under management. The manager wishes to hedge against a decline in share values using stock index futures. Currently a stock index future is priced at 1250 and has a multiplier of 250. The portfolio beta is 1.25. Calculate the number of contracts required to hedge the risk exposure and indicate whether the manager should be short or long.
Answer:
Assume that a month later the equity portfolio has a market value of $20,000,000 and the stock index future is priced at 1150 with a multiplier of 250. Calculate the profit on the equity position.
Calculate the overall profit.
$1,550,000
Explanation:
Assume that a month later the equity portfolio has a market value of $20,000,000 and the stock index future is priced at 1150 with a multiplier of 250. Calculate the profit on the equity position.
Calculate the overall profit.
The manager should be short on the stock index futures because the position on the equity portfolio is long.
Number of contracts required to hedge
= [$20,500,000/(1250*250)] * 1.25 = 82 contracts
Profit on the equity portfolio
= $20,000,000 - $20,500,000 = -$500,000
Profit on the stock index future
= [(1250)(250) – (1150)(250)] x 82 = $2,050,000
Overall profit
= $2,050,000 - $500,000
= $1,550,000
therefore, the overall profit is $1,550,000

Big and Tall, CPAs, were auditing Mountain Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2019. On January 15, 2020, a major customer of Mountain Corporation declared bankruptcy as the result of an uninsured loss due to a major fire in their warehouse on January 10, 2020. As a result, a material accounts receivable from the customer was determined to be uncollectible. Big and Tall, CPAs, would expect the client to:________.
A. Record the loss on uncollectible accounts as a routine transaction in the year 2020.
B. Treat the loss as a subsequent event and adjust the 2019 financial statements to record the loss on uncollectible accounts.
C. Treat the loss as a subsequent event and provide a footnote about the loss in the 2019 financial statements.
D. File a lawsuit against the customer in hopes of collecting some of the money owed to the client.
Answer:
The correct answer is Option B.
Explanation:
Based on IAS 10 Events after the Reporting Period, subsequent events can be an adjusting event or non-adjusting event. If it is an adjusting event, it means an event after the reporting date before the audited financial statements are signed that provides further evidence of conditions that existed at the reporting date. However, non-adjusting events are events after the reporting date that are indicative of a condition that arose after the reporting date, this requires disclosure in the financial statements while for adjusting events, the financial statements are adjusted for condition that arose after the reporting date.
The declaration of the customer as bankrupt is an adjusting event since it affects the receivable collection, hence the need to adjust it as uncollectible,

Direct material quantity variance= (5.3*790 - 5,650)*14.1
Direct material quantity variance= $20,628.3
The property appraisal district for Marin County has just installed new software to track residential market values for property tax computations. The manager wants to know the total equivalent cost of all future costs incurred when the three county judges agreed to purchase the software system. The system has an installation cost of $150,000 and an additional cost of $50,000 at year 10. The annual software maintenance cost is $5,000 for the first 4 years and $8,000 thereafter. If the new system will be used for the indefinite future, find the equivalent present value at a discount rate of 5%.
Answer:
Equivalent annual cost = $16,502.89
Explanation:
Equivalent annual cost = Present Value of cost / Annuity factor
Present value of cost:
PV of additional cost =50,000 ×1.05^(-10)=30,695.66
PV of maintenance cost
First four years= 5,000× (1-1.05^(-4))/0.05=17,729.75
From year 5 to infinity = (8,000/0.05)× 1.05^(-4)=131,632.39
PV of maintenance cost = 17,729.75 + 131,632.396= 149,362.14
PV of costs = 150,000 + 30,695.66 + 149,362.14= 330,057.8112
Annuity factor = 1/r = 1/0.05= 20
Equivalent annual cost = 330,057.8112 /20=$16,502.89
Equivalent annual cost = $16,502.89

Answer:
The principle that suggests that the distribution of income should be based on the contribution made by individuals to society's total output is known as:
C. the productivity standard.The productivity standard fails to yield an equal distribution of income because:
A. individuals have different abilities and skills.Explanation:
Generally speaking, productivity refers to how many units of output we can produce by using X amount of units of inputs. The higher the output, the more productive we are.
The same principle is used by the productivity standard to allocate resources in a society. This is a basic doctrine of capitalism that believes that more work and more productivity should equal more income. That is why capitalistic countries tend to have unequal income distribution.
7. A generous benefactor pledges $1 million to The Smith Foundation, a NPO that promotes the arts. The gift is to be used to provide scholarships for talented musicians at a music camp operated by the Foundation. The gift was given in August 2006 to support the Summer 2007 music program. The Foundation Director argues that the gift is a conditional restricted gift and therefore cannot be recognized as revenue in 2006. The accountant argues that the gift is an unconditional restricted gift and must be recognized in the current year. What is the basis for the Director’s argument? What is the basis for the accountant’s argument? In your answer provide an explanation of the terms conditional, unconditional, restricted and unrestricted.
Answer:
What is the basis for the Director’s argument?
The director believes that this is a temporarily restricted contribution and therefore it should be classified as restricted and recognized in 2007 once it can be classified as unrestricted.What is the basis for the accountant’s argument?
Unconditional gifts or donations must be recognized when they are made, and since the money was received in 2006, it should be recognized then.Explanation:
I agree with the Director since this is a restricted donation, i.e. the donor established strict conditions for its use both in time and purpose. For it to be unconditional, the donor should have stated that the money could be used in the best way that the NPO considers and at any time. But instead it established that it must be used to provide scholarships to musicians during 2007.
Both a condition and a restriction exits:
the restriction refers to the time: 2007the condition refers to its use: scholarships for musiciansWember Catering uses two measures of activity, jobs and meals, in the cost formulas in its budgets and performance reports. The cost formula for catering supplies is $400 per month plus $90 per job plus $10 per meal. A typical job involves serving a number of meals to guests at a corporate function or at a host's home. The company expected its activity in September to be 15 jobs and 145 meals, but the actual activity was 11 jobs and 142 meals. The actual cost for catering supplies in September was $2,710. The catering supplies in the planning budget for September would be closest to:
Answer:
The catering supplies in the planning budget for September would be closest to $3,200
Explanation:
In order to calculate the the catering supplies in the planning budget for September we would have to use the following formula:
catering supplies in the planning budget=The cost formula for catering supplies+cost per job×number of jobs+cost per meal×number of meals
catering supplies in the planning budget=($400+$90*15+145*$10) = $3,200
The catering supplies in the planning budget for September would be closest to $3,200

A perfectly competitive firm is a: Group of answer choices price taker, because it must accept the market equilibrium price. price participant, because it can coordinate its pricing decisions with other firms. price maker, because it has the freedom to set the selling price. price leader; it can change its price and other firms will adjust.
Answer:
A. price taker, because it must accept the market equilibrium price.
Explanation:
A perfectly competitive firm is an ideal firm in which different firms sell products that are homogeneous or similar in nature. They are price takers because the prices of goods are determined by changes in demand and supply, therefore they must accept the market equilibrium price. They do not attempt to fix the prices of commodities. The opposite of this type of firm is a monopoly where a firm has complete control of a market, having the ability to change prices as it wills.
An example can be found among businesses that sell similar kinds of products. It could be in the form of grocery stores that sell similar wares. When any of the sellers leave the market, it does not affect the other sellers as their prices are at equilibrium. Therefore, anyone can enter or exit this type of market.
