Answer:
$0
Explanation:
your IRA contributions are based on your earned income, and earned income means money that you earned by working. A person can contribute up to $6,000 per year or $7,000 if they are older than 50, to an IRA account as long as their earned income is higher than that amount.
But this client only has passive income, rental income and a trust fund, so his earned income is $0. Since he has no earned income, he cannot contribute any money to an IRA account.
You are bullish on Stock A. The current market price is $67 per share, and you wish to purchase 200 shares. Your plan is to borrow at the maximum possible amount allowed under the initial margin requirement of 50%. How far does the price of Telecom stock have to fall for you to get a margin call if the maintenance margin is 26%?
Answer:
The Margin call will be made at $50.92
Explanation:
Initial Margin per share = Price*Margin requirement
Initial Margin per share = $67*50%
Initial Margin per share = $33.50
Maintenance Margin per share = $67 * 26% = $17.42
Hence, the loss allowed = Initial Margin per share - Maintenance Margin per share = $33.50 - $17.42 = $16.08
Hence, the price of a share can fall up to $50.92 (i.e. $67-$16.08) before getting a margin call. Thus, the Margin call will be made at $50.92
'11.8. A company stocks an SKU with a weekly demand of 225 units and a lead time of 3 weeks. Management will tolerate one stockout per year. If sigma for the lead time is 175 and the order quantity is 800 units, what is the safety stock, the average inventory, and the order point
Answer:
a. 261 units
b. 661 units
c. 936 units
Explanation:
Safety stock, average inventory, and the order point can be calculated as follows according to their formulas.
DATA
Weekly Demand = 225 units
Lead time = 3 weeks
Annual Demand = 225 units x 52 weeks = 11,700 units
sigma = 175
Order Quantity Q = 800
Solution
No of orders per year = Annual demand/order quantity
No of orders per year= 11700/800
No of orders per year= 14.625 orders
Service level = (no of orders-1)/no of orders
Service level = (14.625-1)/14.625
Service level = 93.16 %
Saftey factor for 93.16 is 1.49
Saftey stock = 1.49 \sigma
Saftey stock = 1.49 * 175
Saftey stock = 260.75 OR 261 units
Average inventory = Q/2 + saftey stock
Average inventory = 800/2 + 261
Average inventory = 400 + 261
Average inventory = 661
Order point = Demand during the lead time + safety stock
Order point= 225 x 3 + 261
Order point= 936 units

Sledge Co. manufactures a product requiring 1.5 lbs. of raw material for each finished unit. The beginning inventory of raw materials in March was 5,000 lbs. The company wants an inventory of 2,500 lbs at the end of March. Production for March will be 4,000 units. How many lbs. of raw material must be purchased in March
Answer:
Purchases= 3,500lbs
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production= 4,000*1.5= 6,000 lbs
Beginning inventory= 5,000 lbs
Ending inventory= 2,500 lbs
To calculate the direct materials purchase, we need to use the following formula:
Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Purchases= 6,000 + 2,500 - 5,000
Purchases= 3,500lbs
Answer:
Sledge Co./
3,500 Ibs. of raw materials must be purchased in March.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Purchases of raw materials:
Expected ending inventory = 2,500 Ibs.
Production for March (4,000 x 1.5 Ibs.) = 6,000 Ibs.
Raw materials available for production = 8,500 Ibs.
Less beginning inventory = 5,000 Ibs.
Purchases = 3,500 Ibs.
b) The units to be purchase is the difference between raw materials expected to be available for production and the beginning inventory. Since the expected ending inventory is 2,500 Ibs. and the units to be produced during March is 4,000 units, which will use 6,000 Ibs (4,000 * 1.5 Ibs.), therefore, the total units of raw materials required is 8,500 Ibs. When the inventory of raw material is taken away, the difference is the Purchases of materials to be made during March.

The market price of an $1,000,000, ten-year, 12% (pays interest semiannually) bond issue sold to yield an effective rate of 10% is:______
a. $1,124,623.
b. $1,872,360.
c. $1,122,890.
d. $1,133,270.
Answer:
Bond price= 1,124,622
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Face value= $1,000,000
Number of periods= 10*2= 20
Cupon rate= 0.12/2= 0.06
YTM= 0.1/2= 0.05
To calculate the bond price, we need to use the following formula:
Bond Price= cupon*{[1 - (1+i)^-n] / i} + [face value/(1+i)^n]
Bond Price= 60,000*{[1 - (1.05^-20)] / 0.05} + [1,000,000 / 1.05^20]
Bond Price= 747,732.62 + 376,889.48
Bond price= 1,124,622

Write a paragraph to explain if the business had a net income or net loss. Why?
Write a paragraph to explain what the chart shows about the business's financial condition?
3. Now, based on your financial statements, decide what financing source (self-financing, friends and family, investors, loans, grants, or credit cards) you will use to expand your business and explain why you chose this source.
Question # 1
Long Text (essay)
Type your answers to the questions here:
Write a paragraph to explain if the business had a net income or net loss. Why?
Write a paragraph to explain what the chart shows about the business's financial condition?
Based on your financial statements, decide what financing source (self-financing, friends and family, investors, loans, grants, or credit cards) you will use to expand your business and explain why you chose this source.
Answer: The business shown in the graph had a net income or gain. The reason being is one quick glance shows that the business shows its revenue and assets in a teal blue. That teal blue is well above owners equity, total liabilities, and total expenses.
The chart shows that the business is doing great and is pulling in massive profits. The chart also shows that whatever the business is doing they can continue to do so for a while until market or economic changes occur that would render their strategies ineffective.
Based on my financial statements I would likely use self financing. At the very least in the initial stages of the business. This is because I'd rather not owe anyone for a business that doesn't even generate revenue yet. However after the business is stable and more money is needed for growth then I would entertain the possibility of getting a grant or seeking an investor.
Explanation: I'm not sure this is the best answer but this question is more opinion than anything, try taking my answer as an example and work off of that in order to make yours more unique.
Answer:
Based on the charts the company is making a Net Income because almost all four quarters had a profit. In order to find out if they had a profit or not, I added up the Total Revenue and Total Expenses. Total revenue made around $100,000 and the total expenses were around $61,000. I calculated that the company roughly made $39,000 in profit for that year.
The chart shows that the business is doing well and is attracting huge profits. The chart also shows that whatever the business is doing they can continue to do so for a while until market or economic changes make their strategies ineffective.
Based on my financial statements I would try to get a loan to help finance the company because the company is making a profit of 15%. With a profitable business with proof, it can be used to show that the company is able to pay of the loan and fees. This financial source is the best for my situation because the business is too large for funding from self financing and family or friends, is too small for Angel Investors, and is too much for a credit card. The loans allow the company to pay off at a gradual rate for a fixed term.

These were answers for when I finished the project.

Prices for airline tickets change on average about once per month. This would suggest that airline ticket prices are
Answer:
relatively flexible
Explanation:
Flexible pricing is when there is room for negotiation of prices of a product between the buyers and sellers.
So the price is prone to change in short amount of time.
Sticky price on the other hand tends to be non negotiable and the does not change over time.in the given scenario prices for airline tickets change on average about once per month.
So there is constant change of the price every month. Meaning the buyer can convince the seller to change his offering price.
The price is relatively flexible
At the end of the year, Sheffield Co. has pretax financial income of $616,000. Included in the $616,000 is $78,400 interest income on municipal bonds, $28,000 fine for dumping hazardous waste, and depreciation of $67,200. Depreciation for tax purposes is $50,400. Compute income taxes payable, assuming the tax rate is 30% for all periods.
Answer:
$173,820
Explanation:
pretax financial income $616,000
- interest income on municipal bonds ($78,400)
+ depreciation ($67,200 - $50,400) = $16,800
+ fine for dumping hazardous materials $25,000
taxable income = $579,400
income taxes payable = $579,400 x 30% = $173,820
Fines are not tax deductible, and since depreciation for tax purposes is lower than accounting depreciation, you must add them. But since municipal bonds are not taxable, they must be subtracted.

During the current year, Tucker had the following personal casualty gains and losses (after deducting the $100 floor):
Asset Holding Period Gain or (Loss)
Asset 1 18 months ($26,300)
Asset 2 2 months 15,780
Asset 3 3 years 32,875
Required:
What are the tax consequences of these items to Tucker?
Answer:
$22,355 will be taxed as long term capital gains
Explanation:
First of all, casualty gains or losses result from events that are not business related, e.g. your house burnt down. Casualty gains occur when an insurance company or another third party pays for the damage that resulted from a casualty loss. If the reimbursement is larger than the asset's basis, an involuntary conversion gain results. Involuntary conversion gain or net casualty gains are taxed as long term capital gains if the holding period is more than 1 year.
Tucker's net casualty gains = ($15,780 + $32,875) - $26,300 = $22,355
Since capital gains taxes are lower than ordinary income taxes, Tucker will have to pay between either 0%, 15% or 20% as capital gains tax rate.

c. decreases; supply
d. increases; demand
Answer: d. increases; demand
Explanation:
Autonomous expansionary policy by the Central bank of a nation is what happens when the central bank is engaging in actions that are increasing the amount of money in the nation.

How should an organization think about cyber defense? What are the limits of a ‘perimeter-oriented’ security posture?
Answer:
In the explanation is a short point of view about the cyber defense and the perimeter oriented posture.
Explanation:
To begin with, the concept known as "Cibersecurity" refers to the process of protection of computer systems and everything related to them like softwares, hardwares or any electronic data that could be harmful and sensitive for the company. The reason why this type of practice has been rising up the last years is due to the fact that the "internet of things" has been growing up as well and everyday the companies need to protect their information more and more. Moreover, the "perimeter-oriented" security posture implicates the focus on the external networks as being bad and on the other side the internal networks as being good and stable. So the reason why the companies should consider the cyber defense important is because they need to protect all the information that could be use against them.
A friend asks to borrow $635.52 today and promises to repay you $1,000 with interest compounded annually at 12%. How many years (compounding periods) will pass before you receive the payment
Answer:
4 years
Explanation:
We can calculate the years (compounding periods that) will pass before you receive the payment by calculating the PV factor at 12% as follows.
DATA
Amount borrowed = $635.52
future amount = $1,000
Interest rate = 12%
Time period (n) = ?
Solution
Amount borrowed = future amount x Present value factor (12%, n)
$635.52 = $1,000 x PV factor(12%, n)
0.63552 = PV factor(12%, n)
If you see in a discount table yu wi see 0.63552 in the fourth row of 12% rate that means it will take 4 years to receive the payment.

1. How important is elasticity in the analysis of the market?
2. What are tge relying factors of demand elasticity?
Answer:
(1)Elasticity is an important economic measure, particularly for the sellers of goods or services, because it indicates how much of a good or service buyers consume when the price changes. ... If the market price goes up, firms are likely to increase the number of goods they are willing to sell.
(2) Many factors determine the demand elasticity for a product, including price levels, the type of product or service, income levels, and the availability of any potential substitutes. High-priced products often are highly elastic because, if prices fall, consumers are likely to buy at a lower price
Melaney has had a bad year with her investments. She lent a friend $8,000; the friend did not repay the loan whenit was due and then declared bankruptcy. The loan is totally uncollectable. Melaney also was notified by her broker that Oak corporate bonds she owned became worthless on October 13, 2015. She had purchased the bonds for $22,000 on November 10, 2014. Melaney also had a $60,000 loss on the disposition of Section 1244 corporate stock that she purchased several years ago. Melaney is single.
a. What are the nature and amount of Melaney's losses?
b. What is Melaney's AGI for 2015 assuming that she has $65,000 of ordinary gross income from sources other than those discussed?
c. What are the nature and amount of Melaney's loss carryforwards?
Answer:
a. The nature and amount of Melaney's losses is shown below
Type of loss Nature of loss Amount of loss
1 Bad debts of $8,000 Short-term capital loss $8,000
2. Bond of Oak Co. Long-term capital loss $22,000
3. Section 1244 Ordinary loss $50,000
Corporate stock
4. Section 1244 Long-term capital loss $10,000
Corporate stock (60,000- 50,000)
Note: Non business debt of $8,000 is treated as Short-term capital loss, The loss of $50,000 is treated as ordinary loss for single tax payers. Ordinary loss is fully deductible in the current years.
b. The ordinary loss and net capital loss would be deducted from the ordinary income to get the AGI.
AGI = $65,000 - ($50,000 + $3,000)
AGI = $65,000 - $53,000
AGI = $12,000
So the AGI of Malaney is $12,000
c. Malenay can claim the deduction for net capital losses of $3,000 in the current year. The short term capital loss of $5,000 ($8,000-$3,000) and the Long term capital loss of $32,000($22,000+$10,000) would be carried forward to future years.
Riverbed Inc. purchased land, building, and equipment from Laguna Corporation for a cash payment of $327,600. The estimated fair values of the assets are land $62,400, building $228,800, and equipment $83,200. At what amounts should each of the three assets be recorded
Answer:
Land=$54,600, Building = $200,200, Equipment = $72,800
Explanation:
Total Asset Fair Value = Land + Building + Equipment
Total Asset Fair Value = 62,400 + 228,800 + 83,200
Total Asset Fair Value = 374,400
Recorder Amount
Land = 62,400 / 374,400 * 327,600 = $54600
Building = 228,800 / 374,400 * 327,600 = $200200
Equipment = 83,200 / 374,400 * 327,600 = $72,800
