When Sandra and Charles Givens were divorced, the court ordered a division of property and awarded Sandra $65,000. The award was a judgment against Charles, who failed to pay it. Sandra asked the court to find Charles in contempt. Their lawyers had a conference with the judge, and they agreed that Charles would pay $2500 immediately and $300 per month until the judgment was paid in full. Charles alleged that the new payment schedule was a binding contract, because Sandra had accepted his offer of payments. Was it a contract
Answer:
Yes, it is a binding contract.
Explanation:
A contract is a legal binding agreement between two or more parties at the court of law. The agreement could be in terms of money, services, right or duties between the parties involved.
Since a consent has been reached between the two parties before the judge, Charles would pay the sum in the stipulated manner. The acceptance of the offer of payment by Sandra made it a binding contract for Charles, so he is bound by this service until he pays the full amount to Sandra.

Suppose Nike's managers were considering expanding into producing sports beverages. Why might the company decide to do this under the Nike brand name? The cost of producing sports beverages along with its current products under the Nike brand name is less than the cost of producing sports beverages under a new brand name plus the cost of producing Nike's current products under the Nike brand name. The cost of producing sports beverages along with its current products under the Nike brand name is greater than the cost of producing sports beverages separately under a new brand name plus the cost of producing Nike's current products under the Nike brand name.
Answer:
Te correct answer is the first option: The cost of producing sports beverages along with its current products under the Nike brand name is less than the cost of producing sports beverages under a new brand name plus the cost of producing Nike's current products under the Nike brand name
Explanation:
To begin with, the fact that the managers are looking forward to expand the business and to aggregate sports beverages indicates that the company is doing good in the sales and therefore they have margin to invest in a plan like that. Secondly, the fact that they do it under Nike's name will cost them less than doing it otherwise due the fact that they will not have to pay for a new name and all the registrations and patents that the strategy involves. They will only need to register the new product and even more they would have all the marketing campaign focus on the same audience and will find strength in using the brand and name of Nike for that, in terms of publicity.

A mutual fund had NAV per share of $19.00 on January 1, 2016. On December 31 of the same year, the fund's NAV was $19.14. Income distributions were $0.57, and the fund had capital gain distributions of $1.12. Without considering taxes and transactions costs, what rate of return did an investor receive on the fund last year
Answer:
9.63%
Explanation:
Calculation of Mutual Fund rate of return that the investor receive on the fund last year
Using this formula
Rate=(Fund's NAV -NAV per share +Income distributions+ Capital gain distributions )
Let plug in the formula
Where:
Fund's NAV =$19.14
NAV per share=$19.00
Income distributions=.57
Capital gain distributions =1.12
Hence
Rate =($19.14 - 19.00 + .57 + 1.12) / $19.00
=1.83/$19.00
=0.0963×100
Rate = 9.63%
Therefore without considering taxes and transactions costs, the rate of return that the investor receive on the fund last year will be 9.63%
The Digby company will sell 100 units (x1000) of capacity from their Daft product line. Each unit of capacity is worth $6 plus $4 per automation rating. The Digby company will sell the capacity for 35% off. How much do they receive when the capacity is sold
Answer: $2,210,000
Explanation:
The company will sell at full cost per Automation rating which is not provided.
The Comp-XM Inquirer shows this Automation rating to be 7.
The Total Cost per Automation rating is,
= $6 + ($4 * 7)
= $34
Selling 100,000 units gives
= 100,000 * 34
= $3,400,000
Selling at 35% off.
= 3,400,000 * ( 1 - 0.35)
= $2,210,000

First step is to calculate for Variable cost per unit:
Variable cost per unit =
$270,000 ÷ 20,000 units
= $13.50 per unit
Second step is to calculate for the cost function
Cost function :
Y = $630,000 + $13.50X
Y= $630,000 + $13.50(18,000)
Y=$630,000+$243,000
Y = $873,000
Therefore:
Total cost / number of units = total cost per unit$
Total cost =$873,000
Number of units= 18,000
$873,000 ÷ 18,000
= $48.50
Therefore the total cost per unit is $48.50
Discount-Mart issues $19 million in bonds on January 1, 2021. The bonds have a seven-year term and pay interest semiannually on June 30 and December 31 each year. Below is a partial bond amortization schedule for the bonds: Date Cash Paid Interest Expense Increase in Carrying Value Carrying Value 01/01/2021 $ 17,233,953 06/30/2021 $ 950,000 $ 1,034,037 $ 84,037 17,317,990 12/31/2021 950,000 1,039,079 89,079 17,407,069 06/30/2022 950,000 1,044,424 94,424 17,501,493 12/31/2022 950,000 1,050,090 100,090 17,601,583 What is the market annual rate of interest on the bonds
Answer: 12%
Explanation:
The semi annual market rate of interest on the bonds will be the interest expense divided by the carrying value i.e issue price of bond which is then multiplied by 100%. This will be mathematically expressed as:
= 1,034,037/17,233,953 × 100
= 0.06 × 100
= 6%
This implies that the semi annual market interest rate is 6%.
Since we are told to calculate the market annual rate of interest on the bonds, we multiply the value of 6% by 2 since 12 months make a year and we used 6 months for the calculation above which is semi annual. This will be:
= 6% × 2
= 12%
Therefore, the market annual rate of interest on the bonds is 12%
Ratio proficiency McDougal Printing, Inc., had sales totaling $ 41 comma 000 comma 000 in fiscal year 2019. Some ratios for the company are listed below.

Cost of goods sold c. Operating profits d. Operating expenses e. Earnings available for common stockholders f. Total assets g. Total common stock equity h. Accounts receivable
Answer:
a. Gross profits
= total sales x gross profit margin = $41,000,000 x 76% = $31,160,000
b. Cost of goods sold
= total sales - gross profit = $41,000,000 - $31,160,000 = $9,840,000
c. Operating profits
= total sales x operating profit margin = $41,000,000 x 31% = $12,710,000
d. Operating expenses
= total sales - operating profit = $41,000,000 - $12,710,000 = $28,290,000
e. Earnings available for common stockholders
= net profits = total sales x net profit margin = $41,000,000 x 9% = $3,690,000

Due to the adoption of a just in time assembly line system, NWC is expected to decrease. Inventory is expected to decrease from $254600 to $143072 while accounts payable will also decrease by $26648. What is the cash flow impact for the change in net working capital to be included in the initial investment
Answer:
$84,880
Explanation:
Since there is a decrease in inventory from $254,600 to $143,072 i.e $111,528 and the account payable is also decreased by $26,648
So, there is an increase in cash flow due to the change in net working capital of
= Decrease in inventory - decrease in account payable
= $111,528 - $26,648
= $84,880
Hence, the cash flow impact is of $84,880 i.e to be included in the initial investment

Suppose all individuals are identical, and their monthly demand for Internet access from a certain leading provider can be represented as p = 5 minusone half q where p is price in $ per hour and q is hours per month. The firm faces a constant marginal cost of $1. If the firm will charge a monthly access fee plus a per hour rate, the monthly access fee will equal A. $5. B. $16. C. $1. D. $8.
Answer: B) $16
Explanation:
First lets take down the data given to us;
access from a certain leading provider can be represented as p = 5 minusone half q i.e 5 - 0.5q
Using the concept of two-part terrific which is a monopolistic market system, it is type of price discrimination where the price of goods and services are of two section namely; a lump-sum fee (expensive) as well as a per-unit charge .
Entry fees are set to be equal to the consumer surplus in the competitive equilibrium.
So we calculate our price and quantity in the competitive equilibrium first, marginal cost is equal to price
5 - 0.5q = 1
4 / 0.5 = q
q = 8
Now the intercept of the demand curve at the vertical axis is 5,
so the consumer surplus in the competitive equilibrium is:
M = (5 - 1) * 8 / 2
M = 4 * 4
M = 16
the monthly access fee will be equal to $16.
The University of Michigan football stadium, built in 1927, is the largest college stadium in America, with a seating capacity of 110,500 fans. Assume the stadium sells out all six home games before the season begins, and the athletic department collects $86.19 million in ticket sales. Required: 1. What is the average price per season ticket and average price per individual game ticket sold
Answer:
The average price per season ticket is $780
The average price per individual game ticket is $130
Explanation:
The season involves 6 home games. Thus, a season ticket entitles you to attend six home games. The capacity of the stadium is 110500 fans per game. Thus, for a season of 6 games, the number of total fans to attend will be,
Season total attendance = 6 *110500 = 663000 fans
Average ticket price per game will be = 86,190,000 / 663,000
Average ticket price per game will be = $130
As the season involves 6 games and the average ticket price per game is $130, the average price per season ticket will be,
Average price per season ticket = 130 * 6 = $780
A company currently pays a dividend of $3.4 per share (D0 = $3.4). It is estimated that the company's dividend will grow at a rate of 17% per year for the next 2 years, and then at a constant rate of 5% thereafter. The company's stock has a beta of 1.3, the risk-free rate is 6.5%, and the market risk premium is 1.5%. What is your estimate of the stock's current price? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent.

Explanation:
The Dividend Valuation Model is a technique used to value the worth of an asset. According to this model, the worth of an asset is the sum of the present values of its future cash flows discounted at the required rate of return.
The model is given as
P = D× g/(r-g)
P- price, D- dividend payable in year 1, r -cost of equity, g - growth rate in dividend
Cost of equity
The cost of equity can be calculated using the Capital Asset Model (CAPM).
Ke= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)
Ke =? , Rf- 6.5%, (Rm-Rf)- 1.5, β- 1.3
Ke=6.5% + 1.3× (1.5)= 8.45%
Stock price
PV of dividend in year 1 = 3.4× 1.17× 1.0845^(-1)=3.668
PV of dividend in year 2 = 3.4× 1.17^2× 1.0845^(-2) = 3.9572
PV of dividend in year 3
This will be done in two(2) steps:
Step 1- PV in year 2 terms
3.4× 1.17^2× 1.05/(0.0845- 0.05)= 141.651
Step 2- PV in year 0
141.6513913× 1.0845^(-2)= 120.4375
Current piece of stock = 3.668 + 3.957 + 120.4375 = 128.062
Current price of stock =$128.062

Assume that HotLap, Inc., a manufacturer of laptop computers, is considering a merger with SassyChips, a leading producer of computer chips. HotLap believes such a merger would benefit their business by giving them a guaranteed steady supply of the chips they need to make their laptops, and more control over the way those chips are designed. If this merger occurs, it would be an example of:____________.
1. contract manufacturing.
2. a vertical merger.
3. a conglomerate merger.
4. a franchise arrangement.
5. a horizontal merger.
6. a leveraged buyout.

Shrinkage at Walmart In 2015, the world’s largest retailer, Walmart, announced a quarterly increase in sales that was accompanied by an increase in expenses that reduced its hoped-for profit. In discussing the higher expenses, the company mentioned "shrinkage" three times in its written press release and 13 times in its conference call with financial analysts. The company attributed a significant part of its increased shrinkage to shoplifting and outright theft, including one instance in which a team of thieves pushed a shopping cart full of electronics out a back door and loaded them into a waiting car. To combat these problems, which are unfortunately common in retailing, the company announced it was restarting a training program for employees that helps them learn how to spot shoplifters and fellow employees who are pilfering, along with adding staff to areas of the store that contain high-value or easy-to-steal items. They also plan to start checking customers’ receipts at store exits. In addition to these measures, however, the company also reported that a sizable portion of the shrinkage results from difficulties encountered in managing inventory flow throughout the company’s distribution network and its stores. When warehouses and store backrooms become overstocked with inventory, it can be difficult to determine which items should be discounted and moved to the store’s shelves. In recent years, Walmart has increased its sales of grocery and food items, which can be damaged more easily than its other inventory and for which failure to monitor expiration dates can be costly. To deal with these backroom inventory management issues, the company has added employees to staff those areas. Walmart’s U.S. supply chain includes more than 100 distribution centers from which the company makes deliveries to its more than 5000 stores and Sam’s Club locations using its fleet of more than 6000 trucks. Managing the flow of inventory from the company’s suppliers through its distribution centers and into its retail outlets is a mammoth task and, as discussed in this chapter, the company has made attempts to use technology in new and creative ways to address these challenges in the past.

Radio frequency identification makes use of electromagnetic fields, to instantly identify and track tags attached to objects. The tags could be
1. Active or 2. Passive
These tags are the unique form of identification of an item in the store.
The advantages:
1. The main advantage of using the RFID in all Walmart's stores and to manage every single item, is: unlike barcodes, multiple RFID tags can be read at a time.
2. Whether the tag is showing openly or is covered by a part of the object to which it is affixed, it can still be read, if passed by a reader.
3. It can be used to track pilferers or shoplifters.
4. The RFID code is also used to bill the customers.
5. It is used to access the item or good.
6. Active RFID tags can be read from a far distance from the reader.

Phionia Phelps has developed a gourmet cat food. Not only is this food eagerly eaten by the most finicky felines, but it is specially formulated to prevent the many health problems of aging cats. Phionia has been making the food on her kitchen range and selling it at $250 per case only to close acquaintances who are also cat lovers. One of her wealthy acquaintances has now offered to invest in her business if Phionia will begin selling the product through her website. However, the investor wants Phionia to produce a budget for the first six months of operation. Based on her experience to date, Phionia predicts the following sales in cases:
Each case of Finicky Feline Gourmet Cat Dinner requires 5 pounds of prime lamb meat, 10 pounds of short grain Chinese rice, 2 pounds of wild caught Alaskan salmon, and 1 pound of secret vitamins and supplements. Phionia plans to maintain end-of-month inventories equal to 10 percent of the next month's projected sales, to meet expected sales growth. All the ingredients inventories are to be maintained at 5 percent of the production needs for the next month, but not to exceed 1,000 pounds of any one ingredient. January will begin with all inventories at the projected levels. Phionia has the following price quotes good for the following year:
The production process requires direct labor at two skill levels: (1) ingredient preparation, $18 per hour, and (2) cooking and canning, $24 per hour. Two workers are willing to work part days if there is not enough demand for them to work full time. lt takes one hour to process one batch. Because of preparation and cleanup time, only six batches can be produced per day. Each batch produces enough food to fill 100 cases. Manufacturing overhead is $6,000 fixed per month plus $15 per case.
Item $ per pound

1. Prepare the following budgets for the period. January through June:________.
a. Sales budget in dollars.
b. Production budget in units.
c. Direct materials purchases budget in pounds.
d. Direct materials purchases budget in dollars.
e. Direct manufacturing labor budget in dollars.
2. Comment on the viability of this business and the advisability of the investor making a $50,000 investment to get it started.
Answer:
Explanation:
a.
Sales budget = $ 250 per case * 100 cases per batch * 6 batches per day * 20 days a month * 6 months
= $ 18,000,000
b. Production budget in units = 100 cases per batch * 6 batches per day * 20 days a month * 6 months
= 72,000 cases
Production budget including 10 percent inventories
= 72000 + 100*6*20*10%
= 73200 cases
c. Direct materials purchases budget in pounds including 5% inventories
Lamb = 5 pounds per case * (73200 cases + 100*6*20*5% cases )
= 369,000 pounds
Rice Lamb = 10 pounds per case * (73200 cases + 100*6*20*5% cases )
= 738,000 pounds
Salmon = 2 pounds per case * (73200 cases + 100*6*20*5% cases )
= 147,600 pounds
Vitamins = 1 pound per case * (73200 cases + 100*6*20*5% cases )
= 73,800 pounds
d. Direct materials purchases budget in dollars = 369000*15 + 738000*1.2 + 147600*24 + 73800*45
= $ 1,328,400
e. Manufacturing labor budget in dollars = 1 hours per batch * 6 batches per day * 20 days per month * 6 months * ($ 18 per hour for ingredient preparation + $ 24 per hour for cooking and canning ) * 2 workers
= $ 60,480
2. The business requires an investment of $ 1,328,400 + 60,480
= $ 1,388,880 over six months.
This translates to monthly investment of $ 231,480
Therefore $ 50,000 investment is too small to begin with.

Matt Winne, Inc. issued $ 1 comma 000 comma 000 of 9%, nine-year bonds payable on January 1, 2018. The market interest rate at the date of issuance was 6%, and the bonds pay interest semiannually.
1) How much cash did the company receive upon issuance of the bonds payable?
2) Prepare an amortization table for the bond using theeffective-interest method, through the first two interest payments. (Round to the nearest dollar.)
3) Journalize the issuance of the bonds on January 1, 2018, and the first and second payments of the semiannual interest amount and amortization of the bonds on June 30, 2018, and December 31, 2018. Explanations are not required.
4) Journalize the payment of the first semiannual interest amount and amortization of the bond on June 30, 2018
5) Journalize the payment of the second semiannual interest amount and amortization of the bond on December 31, 2018.
Answer:
1) $1,223,163
2) bond premium amortization coupon 1 = $8,305
bond premium amortization coupon 2 = $8,554
3)
January 1, 2018, bonds are issued
Dr Cash 1,223,163
Cr Bonds payable 1,000,000
Cr Premium on bonds payable 223,163
4)
June 30, 2018, first coupon payment
Dr Interest expense 36,695

5)
December 31, 2018, second coupon payment
Dr Interest expense 36,446
Dr Premium on bonds payable 8,554
Cr Cash 45,000
Explanation:
bonds price = PV of face value + PV of coupons
PV of face value = $1,000,000 / 1.03²⁰ = $553,675.75
PV of coupon payments = $45,000 x 14.8775 (annuity factor 3%, 20 payments) = $669,487.50
issue price = $553,675.75 + $669,487.50 = $1,223,163.25 ≈ $1,223,163
Dr Cash 1,223,163
Cr Bonds payable 1,000,000
Cr Premium on bonds payable 223,163
amortization coupon 1 = $45,000 - ($1,223,163 x 3%) = $45,000 - $36,695 = $8,305
amortization coupon 2 = $45,000 - ($1,214,858 x 3%) = $45,000 - $36,446 = $8,554
If your employer offers a retirement plan, don’t participate in it. Don’t bother to set target dates for achieving your financial goals. Pay credit card balances in full each month. Start saving early in life and save throughout your life.
Answer: Please refer to Explanation
Explanation:
If your employer offers a retirement plan, don’t participate in it. Yes.
Having a retirement plan with your employer especially one in which you are a 100% vested is a drain on your income. It might have benefits in future when you retire but if you want to engage in financial planning, you need to have access to every penny and that includes the money going to the retirement plan.
Don’t bother to set target dates for achieving your financial goals. No
Setting a target date for various amounts in your financial goals enables you to work towards them with more determination. It is important to set target dates.
Pay credit card balances in full each month. Yes
Paying your credit card balance in full every month helps you avoid interest accruing as well as increasing your credit score. It is therefore very important to pay off the balance in full every month which will be easier as long as you charge things to it that you can afford.
Start saving early in life and save throughout your life. Yes.
The more you save the more you have to invest. This is why you should start saving early if you want to engage in financial planning. You need to formulate the determination to save every time. And don't just save for saving's case, save to invest.
