According to the substitution effect of labor, firms would hire more workers because people are more willing to work more.
The substitution effect of labor tells us that as income is raised, people would be more willing to give up leisure hours to work more.
This is due to the fact that they would earn more money for the extra hours that they would have spent on leisure.
There would be more willingness to work and the firms would have more people to hire.

In January, Harry and Belinda Johnson had $10,660 in monetary assets: $1,100 in cash on hand; $1,200 in a statement savings account at First Credit Union earning 1.0 percent interest; $4,000 in a statement savings account at the Far West Savings Bank earning 1.1 percent interest; $2,260 in Homestead Credit Union earning a dividend of 1.3 percent; and $2,100 in their regular checking account at First Credit Union earning 1 percent.
If the Johnsons could put most of their monetary assets ($10,660) into a money market account earning 2.3 percent, how much would they have in the account after one year? Round your answer to the nearest dollar.
Answer:
the amount after one year is $10,905
Explanation:
The computation of the amount after one year is shown below:
= Monetary assets ×(1 + earning interest)
= $10,660 × (1 + 0.023)
= $10,660 × 1.023
= $10,905
Hence, the amount after one year is $10,905
We simply applied the above formula
One major advantage of limited liability is that it:________.
a. is not subject to a free-rider problem.
b. has unlimited profit sharing among the firm's owners.
c. shields the personal assets of owners from liability claims.
d. is not subject to a principal-agent problem.
Answer: c. shields the personal assets of owners from liability claims.
Explanation:
An advantage of limited liability is that it shields the personal assets of owners from liability claims.
For a limited liability company, it should be noted that the liabilities of the members in the company for the debts that are incurred are limited only to the investment of the members. Personal assets are not affected if the company first into debt.

The Manda Panda Company uses the allowance method to account for bad debts. At the beginning of 2009, the allowance account had a credit balance of $75,000. Credit sales for 2009 totaled $2,400,000 and the year-end accounts receivable balance was $490,000. During this year, $73,000 in receivables were determined to be uncollectible. Manda Panda anticipates that 3% of all credit sales will ultimately become uncollectible. The fiscal year ends on December 31.
Required:
1. Does this situation describe a loss contingency? Explain.
2. What is the bad debt expense that Manda Panda should report in its 2009 income statement?
3. Prepare the appropriate journal entry to record the contingency.
4. What is the net realizable value (book value) Manda Panda should report in its 2009 balance sheet?
Answer:
The Manda Panda Company
1. This is not a loss contingency. A loss contingency refers to a probable payment that might result from an uncertain event.
2. The bad debt expense that Manda Panda should report in its 2009 income statement is $70,000 ($73,000 -$75,000 + $72,000).
3. Debit Allowance for Uncollectible accounts $3,000
Credit Bad Debts Expense $3,000
To reduce the allowance account from $75,000 to $72,000.
Debit Bad Debts Expense $73,000
Credit Accounts Receivable account $73,000
To write-off the bad debts.
4. The net realizable value of accounts receivable is $418,000 ($490,000 - 72,000)
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Allowance for Uncollectible account (credit balance) = $75,000
Credit sales for 2009 = $2.4 million
Year-end Accounts Receivable = $490,000
Bad Debts = $73,000
Estimated allowance for Uncollectible = 3% of all credit sales (3% of $2.4 million) = $72,000
b) A contingency loss requires that a liability be created to account for the loss. This is not the case with making allowances for uncollectible accounts or writing off bad debts. There is no need to create a liability account since no payment will eventually be made to settle any liability in the future.

A. When microchip used in smartphones become less costly to produce, the supply of smartphones are going to increase, causing a fall in equilibrium price and a rise in equilibrium quantity.
since one of the resources used to make smartphones has become cheaper, more smartphones would be produced, raising its supply, increased supply causes fall in price and rise in equilibrium quantity.
B. since the ALS bucket challenge went viral, supply and demand for research would increase, causing equilibrium price or opportunity cost to either rise or remain unchanged. the equilibrium quantity will then rise, fall or remain unchanged
You decide to set aside $120 a month for your future. Assuming an interest rate of 6.35%, how much will you have after 25 years? How much more would you have if you invested for 30 years?
Answer:
After 20 years you will have "$87,784.99" and after 30 years you will have "$41,151.55".
Explanation:
The give values are:
After 25 years,
Cash Flow per period,
C = $120
Interest rate per period,
i = [tex]\frac{6.35 \ percent}{12}[/tex]
= [tex]0.52916667 \ percent[/tex]
Number of period,
n = [tex]25\times 12[/tex]
= [tex]300[/tex]
The future value will be:
= [tex]C\times \frac{ [(1+i)^n-1]}{i}[/tex]
On substituting the given values, we get
= [tex]\frac{120[ (1+0.0052916667)^{300} -1]}{0.0052916667}[/tex]
= [tex]120[\frac{(4.8711 -1)}{0.0052916667} ][/tex]
= [tex]87,784.99[/tex] ($)
After 30 years,
Cash Flow per period,
C = $120
Interest rate per period,
i = [tex]\frac{6.35 \ percent}{12}[/tex]
= [tex]0.52916667 \ percent[/tex]
Number of period,
n = [tex]30\times 12[/tex]
= [tex]360[/tex]
The future value will be:
= [tex]C\times \frac{ [(1+i)^n-1]}{i}[/tex]
On substituting the given values, we get
= [tex]\frac{120[ (1+0.0052916667)^{360} -1] }{0.0052916667}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{120[ (1.0052916667)^{360} -1]}{0.0052916667}[/tex]
= [tex]120[\frac{(6.6857 -1)}{0.0052916667} ][/tex]
= [tex]128,936.54[/tex] ($)
Thus
You will have:
= [tex]128936.54-87784.99[/tex]
= [tex]41151.55[/tex] ($)
In 1880 five aboriginal trackers were each promised the equivalent of 100 Australian dollars for helping to capture the notorious outlaw Ned Kelley. In 2002 the granddaughters of two of the trackers claimed that this reward had not been paid. The Victorian prime minister stated that if this was true, the government would be happy to pay the $100. However, the granddaughters also claimed that they were entitled to compound interest.

A company purchased $2,000 of merchandise on July 5 with terms 1/10, n/30. On July 7, it returned $220 worth of merchandise. On July 8, it paid the full amount due. The amount of the cash paid on July 8 equals:
Answer:
$1,762.2
Explanation:
Calculation for what The amount of the cash paid on July 8 equals:
Cash Paid = ($2,000 - $220) * (199%-1%)
Cash Paid = ($2,000 - $220) * 0.99
Cash Paid = ($1,780*0.99)
Cash Paid = $1,762.2
Therefore The amount of the cash paid on July 8 equals:$1,762.2
Consider Cowboys Stadium, a large football stadium that can seat approximately 80,000 people (and hold over 100,000 people), located in Arlington, Texas.
If the Super Bowl, the game that determines pro football's champion team for the year, is played in Cowboys Stadium, the quantity of parking spots demanded will far exceed capacity. On a typical game day in the regular season, the quantity of parking spots demanded will only slightly exceed capacity. For smaller events, less than half of the parking spots are typically filled. Assume the marginal cost of providing another parking spot, once the parking lot has already been built, is $0 up to capacity.
In the following table, match each event to the most likely pricing strategy per parking spot.
Pricing Strategy Regular Season Game Super Bowl Small Event
$180 per spot ? ? ?
$4 per spot ? ? ?
$60 per spot ? ? ?
Answer:
180 dollar per spot is matched to the super bowl
4 dollar per spot is matched to small events
60 dollars per spot is matches to regular season game
Explanation:
the principle used in answering this question is that greater demand increases price. so large events would have greater demands for parking sots and hence reduced supply and greater prices.
first of all for the super bowl season the demands for parking spots are high, so that the demands are higher than the supply, so price should be highest here at $180 per spot.
secondly, for small events, the question says that less than half of the parking spots are filled, this means that the demand for parking spots is lower than the supply , so the price would be cheaper and therefore the lowest. The appropriate price would be $4 per spot.
lastly for regular season events, quantity demanded is only a little more than supply. they are almost equal. so the price should be the 60 dollars per spot as it is the second highest amount for the parking spots.

One of my career goals is a ufc fighter anther is a rapper third is a you tuber. I guess I would have to keep moving forward and never give up, if I feel doubt then I have to turn myself around.
Explanation:
Overcoming a challenge can very difficult for many people. I can't really remember a time I overcame a challenge, I guess I always stayed positive and It wasn't really a big deal to me, I just dealt with it and life goes on. But I can tell you some challenges I will or am trying to overcome in my present and future life. First, High School can be difficult for others for so many reasons, but my main problem getting through high school is passing and graduating. I guess I was dealing with a lot and couldn't really focus on my school work, so I failed and haven't passed a lot of classes so I'm very behind on my credits to graduate. Now I'm in twelfth grade and it's like taking every single class of high school I didn't pass all in one, so it's very overwhelming and a lot of work. Second, another challenge I will be overcoming in the future is to accomplish my goals and passion. I want to become a UFC fighter, rapper, and You Tuber. These goals are big dreams and achieving them can be almost not possible, but anything can be possible, you just have to have the mind set and tell yourself you can do anything. But it can be difficult if you don't know what to do or how to work towards your drams, so that's my main problem. Finally, my main challenge I'm trying to overcome is getting through life, some and many people don't really worry about life because there taking care of and been told they don't have to worry about anything. I have a rough life filled with tough love and scars and tears. But growing up didn't change my soul, I still believe I can accomplish anything and overcome anything. From what I learned from my challenges is that life can be overwhelming and can become hell but sometimes you have to go through hell to get to heaven. And going through experiences can make you wiser by learning from your mistakes and sometimes even learning from other peoples mistake. But I'm trying, it's seems like it's almost impossible to accomplish things I want to accomplish because bad things just happen to me and pulls me down and makes me want to give up on everything.

Cogswell Printers purchased a four year insurance policy on May 1, Year 2 for $12,000,effective immediately. The company expensed the full cost of the policy in Year 2. Theadjusting journal entry required at December 31, Year 2 will include a:________
a. Credit to prepaid insurance of $9,000
b. Debit to insurance expense of $3,000
c. Credit to insurance expense of $2,000
d. Debit to prepaid insurance of $10,000
e. None of the above
Answer:
d. Debit to prepaid insurance of $10,000
Explanation:
The company has paid for insurance that covers a period of 4-year, hence, based on the matching concept it is expected that the insurance cost would be expensed over 4 years as well.
However, the company has debited the whole $12,000 to insurance expense in year 1, hence, we need to adjust for the remaining cost of insurance for the future period.
Insurance expense for the 8-month period(May-Dec)=$12,000*8/48=$2000
Note there are 48 months in 4 years
balance of insurance paid=$12,000-$2,000=$10,000
The $10,000 would be credited to insurance in order to reduce the insurance recognized earlier as $12,000 to only $2,000 while prepaid insurance is debited with $10,000

HW13. Suppose that you begin saving up to buy a car by depositing a certain amount at the end of each month in a savings account which pays 3.6% annual interest compounded monthly. If your goal is to have $15,000 in the account four and a half years from now, how much do you need to put into the savings account each month
Answer:
$256.31
Explanation:
Interest rate per annum = 3.6%
Number of years = 4.5
No of payment per annum = 12
Interest rate per period 3.6%/12 = 0.3%
Number of period = 4.5*12 = 54
FV of annuity = 15,000
Deposit in each month (P) = FVA / ([1+r)^n - 1]/r)
Deposit in each month (P) = 15,000 / ([1+0.3%]^54 - 1) / 0.3%)
Deposit in each month (P) = 15,000 / ([1.003^54 - 1]/0.003)
Deposit in each month (P) = 15,000 / (1.175575 - 1/0.003)
Deposit in each month (P) = 15,000 / (0.175575/0.003)
Deposit in each month (P) = 15,000 / 58.525
Deposit in each month (P) = 256.3007262
Deposit in each month (P) = $256.31

What is the sustainable growth rate?
Answer:
12.78%
Explanation:
Calculation for What is the sustainable growth rate
First step is to calculate ROE
Using this formula
ROE = NI / TE
Let plug in the formula
ROE = $3,480 / 21,500
ROE = .1619*100
ROE= 16.19%
Second step is to calculateThe plowback ratio b
Plowback ratio b = 1 - .30
Plowback ratio b = .70
Now let calculate the sustainable growth rate using this formula
Sustainable growth rate = (ROE × b) / [1 - (ROE × b)]
Let plug in the formula
Sustainable growth rate = [. 1619(.70)] / [1 - . .1619(.70)]
Sustainable growth rate=0.11333/(1-0.11333)
Sustainable growth rate=0.1133/0.88667
Sustainable growth rate = .1278*100
Sustainable growth rate=12.78%
Therefore the sustainable growth rate will be 12.78%

On January 1, 2019, Cullumber Corporation acquired machinery at a cost of $1650000. Cullumber adopted the straight-line method of depreciation for this machine and had been recording depreciation over an estimated life of ten years, with no residual value. At the beginning of 2022, a decision was made to change to the double-declining balance method of depreciation for this machine. Assuming a 30% tax rate, the cumulative effect of this accounting change on beginning retained earnings, is
Answer:
$0
Explanation:
Since in the given situation there is a depreciation method change i.e. from the straight-line method to double-declining method so there would be no impact restrospectively.
Hence, there would be no cumulative impact as it creates the impact prospectively
So the impact would be zero

USAco, a domestic corporation, manufactures widgets for sale worldwide. In year 2020, USAco had $10 million of net income related to sales of products it manufactures in the US, of which 3 million relates to sales to customers outside the US. USACO also owns a factory, which it uses to produce the above income, and which has an average adjusted U.S. tax basis of $40 million (taking into account the straight-line depreciation method). As a result of these activities, USACo will be allowed a Foreign Derived Intangible Income ("FDII") deduction of _______________
Answer:
USAco
As a result of these activities, USACo will be allowed a Foreign Derived Intangible Income ("FDII") deduction of _______________
$236,250.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations
Net income = $10 million
Export sales income = $3 million
Normal tax on $3 million at 21% = $630,000
FDII 13.125% tax on $3 million = $393,750
Difference = $236,250
b) A foreign derived intangible income (FDII) arises from the ownership, sale, or exchange of intangible property, patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, or other products tied to intangible assets by USACo, which entitles it to make a tax deduction of the calculated amount or to be taxed at a reduced tax rate of 13.125% instead of the normal 21% corporate tax rate. The FDII is aimed at encouraging US-based corporations to export more goods and services while locating more intangible assets in the US.
Suppose that you are running a business and you need some extra space for one year. Your bank offers you a loan of $200,000 at 0% interest. You consider borrowing this amount, buying the building, using it for one year, and then selling the building to pay back the loan. Unfortunately, the economy in which you are operating is experiencing deflation at a rate of 10% per year.
After one year, you should be able to sell the building for _.
Suppose that owning the building for a year would earn you $5,000. To decide whether or not you will be better off by owning it for one year and then selling it, you sought advice from three different people: (1) Your brother says that you should not buy the building because in one year it will cost you $100,000. (2) Your accountant says that you should definitely buy the building because you can borrow $100,000 at zero interest while the building will generate $5,000 in extra income. Then when you sell it, you will be $5,000 richer. (3) Your bookkeeper says that if you sell the building in a year, you will have to come up with more money to pay off the loan than you will make in extra income.
Keeping in mind that the economy experiences deflation at the rate of 10%, yourbookkeeper is right because: ________
a. When the nominal interest rate is zero, you do not incur any cost when you take out a loan.
b. The extra income you will earn will be less than the cost of owning the building for the year.
c. When the nominal interest rate is zero, the cost of a building is its full purchase price
Answer:
a. $180,000
b. The extra income you will earn will be less than the cost of owning the building for the year.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Bank loan = $200,000
Interest rate = 0%
Cost of building = $200,000
Deflation rate = 10%
After one year, the price of the building will reduce to $180,000 ($200,000 * 90%)
So with deflation rate of 10%, you should be able to sell the building for only $180,000.
Expected revenue from owning the building for a year = $5,000
Cost of owning the building for a year = $20,000 ($200,000 - $180,000)
Therefore, the cost of owning the building for a year outstrips the revenue from owning the building by $15,000 ($20,000 -$5,000)
b. When The extra income you will earn then will be less than the cost of owning the building for the year.
Explanation:
a) When Data and Calculations:Then Bank loan = $200,000After that Interest rate = 0%Then Cost of building = $200,000Now Deflation rate = 10%Now After that one year, the price of the building will be reduce to $180,000 ($200,000 * 90%)So with deflation rate of 10%, you should be able to sell the building for only that is $180,000.When the Expected revenue from owning the building for a year = $5,000
After that the Cost of owning the building for a year = $20,000 ($200,000 - $180,000)So thus that Therefore, the cost of owning the building for a year outstrips the revenue from owning the building by $15,000 ($20,000 -$5,000)Learn more about:

sally borrowed $1000 from her friend monique two years ago. their arrangement required sally to repay $250 each year for the subsequent four years. Today with two paymewnts remaining on the loan, Sally offers to repay the loan with a single payment of $475. Assuming no change in interest rates throughout the entire time, should monique accept the signle $475 payment today, why or why not
Answer:
a
Explanation:
Here are the options to this question :
A. yes, 475 is more than the PV of the two remaining payments
B. More information is needed to decide
C. Monique is indifferent between the options, the PVs are equivalent
D. No, the PV of the remaining two payments is more than 475
We have to determine the present value of the remaining two payments and compare the options
Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows
Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator
Cash flow in year 1 = 0
Cash flow in year 2 = 0
Cash flow in year 3 = 250
Cash flow in year 4 = 250
I = 2%
PV = $466.54
$475 is greater than $466.54. Therefore, she should accept the single $475 payment
To find the PV using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
3. Press compute
