Answer: the global tragedy of the commons
Explanation:
The tragedy of the commons is a term that is used to refer to a situation whereby resources that are held in common by everyone but owned by no one and is therefore overused by individuals which results in degradation.
Krisp Systems moves production to a developing country where they can pump pollutants into the atmosphere without any legal restriction will lead to
global tragedy of the commons. Here, the global tragedy is that Krisp system will only work in their own interest and exploit the resources at the detriment of the people which will lead to pollution.
Answer:
d. the global tragedy of the commons.
Explanation:
The tragedy of the commons is a situation that arises as a result of the selfish interest of people who exploit the shared economic resources at the expense and detriment of other users of the resources in the environment. Activities which result in Tragedy of the commons would cause pollution of the environment, excessive consumption, as well as the depletion of resources. A way to curb this sort of exploitation is by the regulation of the activities of companies by the government. This would ensure that certain limits are not overstepped.
When Krisp Systems decides to bypass this regulation by moving to a developing country where they are free to pump pollutants into the atmosphere, they are in effect contributing to the tragedy of the commons.
Hastings Corporation is interested in acquiring Vandell Corporation. Vandell has 1 million shares outstanding and a target capital structure consisting of 30% debt; its beta is 1.10 (given its target capital structure). Vandell has $8.67 million in debt that trades at par and pays an 7.3% interest rate. Vandell’s free cash flow (FCF0) is $1 million per year and is expected to grow at a constant rate of 6% a year. Both Vandell and Hastings pay a 40% combined federal and state tax rate. The risk-free rate of interest is 6% and the market risk premium is 7%. Hastings Corporation estimates that if it acquires Vandell Corporation, synergies will cause Vandell’s free cash flows to be $2.5 million, $3.2 million, $3.5 million, and $3.57 million at Years 1 through 4, respectively, after which the free cash flows will grow at a constant 6% rate. Hastings plans to assume Vandell’s $8.67 million in debt (which has an 7.3% interest rate) and raise additional debt financing at the time of the acquisition. Hastings estimates that interest payments will be $1.5 million each year for Years 1, 2, and 3. After Year 3, a target capital structure of 30% debt will be maintained. Interest at Year 4 will be $1.465 million, after which the interest and the tax shield will grow at 6%. Indicate the range of possible prices that Hastings could bid for each share of Vandell common stock in an acquisition. Round your answers to the nearest cent. Do not round intermediate calculations.
The bid for each share should range between $ ______ per share and $ _______ per share.
Answer:
$40.79 per share and $52.90 per share
Explanation:
Cost of Debt (Kd) = Wd * Rd (1 - T)
Cost of Debt for Vandell Corporation is $7.30 * (1 - 0.40) = 4.38%
Cost of Equity (Ke) = Rf + [tex]\beta[/tex] * Rp
Cost of Equity for Vandell Corporation is 6 + 1.10 * 7 = 13.70%
Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) = Wd * Kd + We * Ke
Cash Flow of Firm = $2.5m + $3.2m + $3.5m + $3.57m = $12.77
Weight of Equity = $8.94
WACC = 30% * 4.38% + 70% * 13.70% = 10.9%
CashFlows after discounting synergy will be = $40.79
James is the landlord of an apartment containing 22 houses which are to be maintained by him and Lily is one of the tenants. In which of the following cases would the tenant be liable for an injury occurring on the leased premises?A) James was negligent in repairing the broken step on which Lily tripped and broke her ankle.B) Lily's nephew cut his finger with the knife that was negligently kept in Lily's kitchen.C) A little child at the apartment almost choked himself by consuming the paint that was chipping off the common wall between Lily's apartment and her neighbor's.D) The entire apartment caught fire and the fire extinguisher could not be used since it was installed only in Lily's rented house and she was out shopping.E) Lily's visitor got into the common lift in the apartment that suddenly crashed leading to severe injuries to Lily's visi
Answer: B) Lily's nephew cut his finger with the knife that was negligently kept in Lily's kitchen.
Explanation:
James as the landlord will be responsible for the structural or other defects of the house so long as it is the house that is the problem.
Activities that go on inside a tenants house that are caused by the actions of the tenants will not be a liability on the path of the landlord.
If an elevator is damaged or there weren't enough fire extinguishers or there was a broken step or poor quality paint was used, these are all defects related to the house itself and as such will result in negligence on the part of the landlord.
A child getting injured by a knife that Lily as a tenant left, in her apartment will.be the fault of Lily and the negligence can only be on her because it was due to actions by her as a tenant in her leased property.
According to WSJ article, companies like Apple, Deere, and Walt Disney recently issued new bonds on the market, totaling $27 billion offering on a single day on Sep. 3. What explains such an increased activity in a corporate bond market
Answer: Fall in Benchmark Interest Rates.
Explanation:
This activity was caused by a Refinancing Drive. Refinancing is when entities get a new loan with a lower interest rate and pay off the older loan with a higher interest rate so that they can pay at the lower rate.
Bond interest rates are usually fixed so when interest rates in a country fall, bond holders don't benefit from that. One option they have to take advantage of that is to go on a Refinancing Drive and issue new bonds at those lower rates and then pay off the older ones.
That is what Apple, Deere, and Walt Disney have done.

One person owns a company's bond, and another owns a share of stock. The company makes a profit of $50 during a certain year. The bondholder is owed a coupon payment of $50, and the stockholder is promised a dividend of $50.
Which of the following is the likeliest outcome of this situation?
a) The bondholder is paid $50
b) The stockholder is paid $50
c) Each investor is paid $25
d) The company keeps the $50 as retained earnings
e) None of these outcomes are likely to happen
2) Assume you bought a share of stock a year ago at a certain price, and today you need the money, so are forced to sell it even though the price has decreased.
Which of the following statements is true?
a) The stock's dividend yield is negative.
b) The stock's dividend yield is positive.
c) The stock's capital gains yield is negative.
d) The stock's capital gains yield is positive.
e) The stock's current yield is negative.
Answer:
The correct option for the first question is A,the bondholder is paid $50
The correct option for the second question is C,the stock's capital gains yield is negative
Explanation:
The company has to pay the $50 owed to bondholder as payment of coupon payment takes precedence over payment of dividends.
It would be inappropriate to keep the $50 in retained earnings since there is a covenant in the agreement signed with bondholders that their coupon payment annually is mandatory.
The correct answer to the second question is that the stock's capital gains yield is negative.
Capital gains yield =the price now(which is lower)-original price/original price
Since the numerator would give a negative figure,overall yield is negative
A roofing company collects fees when jobs are complete. The work for one customer, whose job was bid at $3,900, has been completed as of December 31, but the customer has not yet been billed. Assuming adjustments are only made at year-end, what is the adjusting entry the company would need to make on December 31, the calendar year-end?
Answer:
Debit Accounts Receivable, $3,900;
Credit Roofing Fees Revenue, $3,900
Explanation:
Here, no cash transaction was involved. Since the job has been completed but the customer has not been billed yet, this simply means it has to be debited with accounts receivable, which is recognised as current asset and recognised as revenue for the period, hence needs to be credited.
This means that accounts receivable has to be debited with the amount of $3,900 while roofing fees revenue has to be credited with the amount of $3,900
Considering the above, the adjusting entry the company would need to make on December 31, the calendar year-end would be:
Debit Accounts Receivable, $3,900;
Credit Roofing Fees Revenue, $3.900
Pelzer Printing Inc. has bonds outstanding with 10 years left to maturity. The bonds have a 9% annual coupon rate and were issued 1 year ago at their par value of $1,000. However, due to changes in interest rates, the bond's market price has fallen to $950.70. The capital gains yield last year was -4.93%. What is the yield to maturity
Answer:
The answer is 9.85%
Explanation:
The number of periods N = 9years(10 years minus 1 year ago)
Yield to Maturity (I/Y) = ?
Present value of the bond (PV) = $950.70
Future value of the bond(FV) = $1,000
Annual payment (PMT) = $90 (9% x $1,000)
Using a financial calculator to solve the problem ( BA II plus Texas instruments):
Yield to Maturity (I/Y) = 9.85%
An asset was acquired on September 30, 2021, for $104,000 with an estimated five-year life and $25,000 residual value. The company uses double-declining-balance depreciation. Calculate the gain or loss if the asset was sold on December 31, 2022, for $54,000. Partial-year depreciation is to be calculated.
Answer:
There is a loss on disposal of $80
Explanation:
The double declining rate method of depreciation is an accelerated form of charging depreciation on an asset. It charges higher depreciation in the earlier years and lower depreciation in the later years of the useful life of the asset. the formula for double declining balance depreciation per year is,
Depreciation expense = 2 * [ (Cost - Accumulated depreciation) / estimated useful life of the asset ]
The depreciation expense per year on this asset is,
Depreciation expense = 2 * [(104000 - 0) / 5]
Depreciation expense for the 1 year(2021) = $41600
As the asset was purchased in September, we will charge a depreciation expense of 4 months.
Depreciation expense for 2021 = 31600 * 4/12 = $13866.67
Accumulated depreciation at the end of 2021 = $13866.67
Depreciation expense for 2nd year (2022) = 2 * [(104000 - 13866.67) / 5]
Depreciation expense for 2nd year (2022) = $36053.33
Accumulated depreciation at the end of 2022 = 13866.67 + 36053.33
Accumulated depreciation at the end of 2022 = $49920
To calculate the gain or loss on disposal, we need to determine the Net Book value of the asset at the end of 2022 and compare it with the cash received from the sale. If the cash received is more than the Net Book Value, there is a gain on disposal and if the cash received is less than the Net Book Value, there is a loss on disposal.
Net Book value at the end of 2022 = 104000 - 49920 = $54080
Loss on disposal = 54000 - 54080 = - $80 (loss on disposal)
The loss on the sale of the asset is $2,160.
There would be a loss on the sale of the asset is the book value of the asset is greater than the selling price of the asset.
Depreciation is a method used to reduce the carrying value of an asset.
Double declining depreciation = (2/ useful life) x cost of the asset
Depreciation expense in 2021 = (2/5) x $104,000 = $41,600
3/12 x $41,600 = $10,400
Book value in 2021 = $104,000 - $10,400 = $93,600
Depreciation expense in 2022 = (2/5) x $93,600 = $37,440
Book value in 2022 = $93,600 - $37,440 = $56,160
Loss = $56,160 - $54,000.= $2,160

Required information The Foundational 15 [LO5-1, LO5-3, LO5-4, LO5-5, LO5-6, LO5-7, LO5-8] [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Oslo Company prepared the following contribution format income statement based on a sales volume of 1,000 units (the relevant range of production is 500 units to 1,500 units): Sales $ 20,000 Variable expenses 12,000 Contribution margin 8,000 Fixed expenses 6,000 Net operating income $ 2,000 Foundational 5-11 11. What is the margin of safety in dollars
Answer:
$5,000
Explanation:
Sales $20,000
Variable expenses $12,000
Contribution margin $8,000
Fixed expenses $6,000
Net operating income $2,000
margin of safety in $ = current sales level - break even point
margin of safety in % = (current sales level - break even point) / current sales level
first we need to calculate the contribution margin per unit = $20 - $12 = $8 per unit
break even point = fixed costs / contribution margin = $6,000 / $8 = 750 units
sales level at break even point = 750 x $20 = $15,000
margin of safety in $ = $20,000 - $15,000 = $5,000
margin of safety = ($20,000 - $15,000) / $20,000 = $5,000 / $20,000 = 25%
Which of the following statements about pricing is true? Small changes in price can have big effects on company profit but not on the number of units sold. Small changes in price can have big effects on the number of units sold but not on company profit. Small changes in price can have big effects on the number of units sold and also on company profit. Compared to the other 4P’s, pricing is important because once an item has been priced, changing its price can be quite difficult.
Answer:
Small changes in price can have big effects on the number of units sold and also on company profit
Explanation:
Small change in price will definitely have an effect on the amount of units sold due to a corresponding change in demand that will follow this change, and also will affect the amount of profit that the company generates. This changes can either be positive or negative to the company. Example is the increase in price of coca-cola might trigger customers into switching to pepsi-cola, resulting in a reduced demanded quantity which means less units are produced. The overall effect of these will leave the company with less profit.
Lang Warehouses borrowed $287,610 from a bank and signed a note requiring 15 annual payments of $27,709 beginning one year from the date of the agreement. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) Required: Determine the interest rate implicit in this agreement
Answer:
The interest rate implicit in this agreement is 5%
Explanation:
A fix periodic payment made for a specific of time is known as annuity.
The 15 annual loan payment of $27,709 is an annuity payment and we will use the following formula to calculate the interest rate.
PV of annuity = P x annuity factor
Where
P = annual payments = $27,709
Placing values in the formula
$287,610 = $27,709 x annuity factor
Annuity factor = $287,610 / $27,709
Annuity factor = 10.37966
The annuity factor of 10.37966 for 15 years is for 5% interest rate.
Gomez runs a small pottery firm. He hires one helper at $16,500 per year, pays annual rent of $6,000 for his shop, and spends $22,500 per year on materials. He has $40,000 of his own funds invested in equipment (pottery wheels, kilns, and so forth) that could earn him $5,000 per year if alternatively invested. He has been offered $19,500 per year to work as a potter for a competitor. He estimates he could use his talents to earn an additional $5,500 per year in consulting fees if he were working full time as a potter. Total annual revenue from pottery sales is $89,000.Calculate the accounting profit and the economic profit for Gomez's pottery firm.
Accounting profit = ?
Economic profit = ?
Answer:
$44,000
$14,000
Explanation:
Accounting profit is total revenue less total explicit cost.
Accounting profit = Revenue - Explicit cost
Total explicit cost = $16,500 + $6,000 + $22,500 = $45,000
Total revenue = $89,000
Accounting profit = $89,000 - $45,000 = $44,000
Economic profit is accounting profit less implicit cost or opportunity cost.
Opportunity cost is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives.
Opportunity cost = $5,500 + $19,500 + $5,000 = $30,000
Economic profit = $44,000 - $30,000 = $14,000

The "Investment in Buisson, S.A.," on the balance sheet represents an investment in the stock of another company. The company's minimum required rate of return of 15%
Required:
1. Compute the company's average operating assets for last year
2. Compute the company's margin, turnover, and return on investment (ROl) for last year. (Round "Margin", "Turnover" and "ROI" to 2 decimal places.)
3. What was the company's residual income last year?
Answer:
1. $1,930,000
2. Margin = 15%
Turnover = $2.8
Return on investment = 42%
3. $521,100
Explanation:
1. The computation of average operating assets for last year is shown below:-
Average operating assets = (Beginning operating assets + Ending operating assets) ÷ 2
= ($2,562,000 - $399,000 - $253,000) + ($2,634,000 - $434,000 - $250,000) ÷ 2
= ($1,910,000 + $1,950,000) ÷ 2
= $3,860,000 ÷ 2
= $1,930,000
2. The computation of company's margin, turnover, and return on investment is shown below:-
Margin = Net operating income ÷ Sales
= $810,600 ÷ $5,404,000
= 15%
Turnover = Sales ÷ Average operating assets
= $5,404,000 ÷ $1,930,000
= $2.8
Return on investment = Margin × Turnover
= 15% × $2.8
= 42%
3. The computation of residual income last year is shown below:-
Residual income last year = Net operating income - Minimum required return
= $810,600 - ($1,930,000 × 15%)
= $810,600 - $289,500
= $521,100
So, we have applied the above formula.
On January 1, 20x1, the ABC Corporation purchased 80% of the XYZ Company's voting stock for $3,000,000. The FMV of all of XYZ's stock was $4,025,000, and XYZ's net assets had a book value of $2,850,000; the fair values of XYZ's assets are equal to their book values, with the exception of land, which is $625,000 greater than its book value. Assuming that ABC Corporation used the acquisition method to prepare its consolidated balance sheet, how much goodwill was reported on the January 1, 20X1 consolidated balance sheet assuming that the "full goodwill" method is used?
Answer: $440000
Explanation:
Fair market value = $4025000
Book value of asset = $2,850,000
Land value = $625,000
The value of the goodwill will be
(Fair market value - book of asset - land value) × 80%
= ($4,025,000 - $2,850,000 - $625,000) × 80%
= 550000 × 80%
= 550000 × 0.8
= $440,000
Perdue found that one of its chicken products may have been contaminated with bacteria, so it pulled it off the shelves and instituted a recall. This potential ethical issue was associated with which element of the marketing mix?
1. product
2. price
3. distribution
4. marketing communications promotion
Answer:
1. Product
Explanation:
Perdue finding out that one of its chicken products may have been contaminated with bacteria, pulled it off the shelves and instituted a recall.
Hence, this potential ethical issue is associated with product marketing mix because Perdue was very much concerned about the quality level, safety and reliability of his chicken products. This simply means, Perdue is much more interested in producing and selling highly uncontaminated products to it's customers.
A product marketing mix is focused mainly on the products, reason Perdue pulled the chicken products off the shelves and instituted a recall.
This would help to boost confidence among their customers to use more of their products in the future and by extension their market share.
A company reported total assets at the end of 2017 of $95,000; including cash of $35,000, accounts receivable of $20,000, and inventory of $40,000. It reported total assets at the end of 2018 of $110,000; including cash of $44,000; accounts receivable of $29,000, and inventory of $37,000. Compute the net increase or decrease in cash in 2018. Decrease of $9,000 Increase of $15,000 Increase of $9,000 Decrease of $15,000
Answer:
The correct option is increase of $9,000
Explanation:
The increase or decrease in cash in 2018 could be determined by using the formula below which is coined from the statement of cash flow:
Cash at the end of the year=cash at the beginning plus +increase in cash
cash at the end of 2018 is $44,000 whereas cash at the beginning which is the same at closing balance of 2017 is $35,000
$44,000=$35,000+increase in cash
increase in cash =$44,000-$35,000
increase in cash in 2018=$9,000
Cash Flow Ratios Tracy Company reports the following amounts in its annual financial statements:_________.
Cash flow from operating activities $90,000 Capital expenditures $31,000*

Degregorio Corporation makes a product that uses a material with the following direct material standards:
Standard quantity 3.7 kilos per unit
Standard price $5 per kilo
The company produced 6,300 units in November using 23,780 kilos of the material. During the month, the company purchased 25,950 kilos of the direct material at a total cost of $124,560. The direct materials purchases variance is computed when the materials are purchased.
The materials quantity variance for November is:
A. $2,350 F
B. $2,256 F
C. $2,350 U
D. $2,256 U
Answer:
Materials quantity variance = $2,350 F
Explanation:
Given:
Standard quantity = 3.7 kilos per unit
Standard price = $5 per kilo
Unit produced = 6,300
Total material = 23,780
Computation:
Materials quantity variance = (Actual quantity × Standard price) - (Standard quantity × Standard price)
Materials quantity variance = (23,780 × $) - (6,300 × 3.7 × $5)
Materials quantity variance = $118,900 - $116,550
Materials quantity variance = $2,350 F
Cooperton Mining just announced it will cut its dividend from $4.17 to $2.56 per share and use the extra funds to expand. Prior to the announcement, Cooperton's dividends were expected to grow at a 3.3 % rate, and its share price was $50.47. With the planned expansion, Cooperton's dividends are expected to grow at a 46% rate. What share price would you expect after the announcement? (Assume that the new expansion does not change Cooperton's risk). Is the expansion a good investment?
Answer: New share price= Price = $35.38. No, it's not a good investment
Explanation:
First, we have to calculate the cost of equity.
Price = Dividend/r - g
Dividend = $4.17 × (1 + 3.3%)
= $4.17 × (1 + 0.033)
= $4.17 × 1.033
= $4.30761
Price = Dividend/r - g
50.47 = 4.30761/r - 0.033
r - 0.033 = 4.30761/50.47
r - 0.033 = 0.08535
r = 0.08535 + 0.033
r = 0.11835
Now, we have to calculate the new price with dividend of $2.56 and g= 4.6%.
Price = Dividend/r - g
Price = 2.56/0.11835 - 0.046
Price = 2.56/0.07235
Price = $35.38
The expansion isn't a good investment because the stock price is s reduced from $50.47 to $35.38

You would like to invest in one of the profitable business units of a multinational corporation. In a meeting with management, you explain that you'll only consider a unit categorized, according to the BCG matrix, as a question mark. Here are your choices:Unit A has revenue of $27 billion and a profit of $6 billion. While its product is based on a new technology that is rapidly increasing in sales, the product currently lags the market share of competitors.Unit B has revenue of $30 billion and a profit of $7 billion. Its market share is strong and growing. While its product is based on an outdated technology, the product has a loyal following for now.Which of the corporation's two profitable units meets your criterion?
Answer:
Unit A has revenue of $27 billion and a profit of $6 billion. While its product is based on a new technology that is rapidly increasing in sales, the product currently lags the market share of competitors.
Explanation:
According to the BCG Matrix, question marks are business units that operate in rapidly growing markets but currently only possess a low market share.
This results in a lot of cash being consumed by the business unit, but also the possibility of high growth. It is called a question mark because it is uncertain if the business unit will be successful or not. This means that they are very risky investments.
