Stan and Dwight were playing in a golf tournament and came to a hole where there was a hill that required a blind shot to the green. Dwight asked Stan to drive ahead in the golf cart to see if they could hit their shots. Stan drove the cart over the hill, saw the green was clear, and started driving back to the tee box. Dwight never saw Stan heading back in the cart, became impatient and without warning hit his shot. The shot conked Stan on the head, knocking him out and resulting in a long term disability. Stan sued Dwight for negligence. What is the likely result? a) Dwight is liable for negligence because a tortfeasor is always liable for whatever damages their behavior causes. b) Dwight is liable for negligence because Stan did not knowingly assume the risk that Dwight would hit a shot in his direction. c) Dwight is not liable for negligence but is liable for assault and battery because he committed an intentional tort. d) Dwight is not liable for negligence because Stan knowingly assumed the risk that Dwight would hit a shot in his direction.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

b) Dwight is liable for negligence because Stan did not knowingly assume the risk that Dwight would hit a shot in his direction

Explanation:

In this scenario there was an agreement between Stan and Dwight where Dwight asked Stan to drive ahead in the golf cart to see if they could hit their shots.

However Stan drove the cart over the hill, saw the green was clear, and started driving back to the tee box.

Instead of waiting as agreed Dwight made a shot that hit Stan on the head injuring him.

Dwight is liable in this case because he was supposed to wait and get feedback from Stan before making a shot.

He knowingly made the shot knowing there was a blind spot.

This is negligence on Dwight's part.

1. What information is provided by the budget? Specifically, what questions can the bank manager ask of the Operations Department
manager?
2. What information does the static budget fail to provide? Specifically, could the budget information be presented differently to
provide even more insight for the bank manager?

Answers

Answer:

Some of the information provided by the budget is...

fixed costs - items such as rent, salaries and financing costs

variable costs - including raw materials and overtime

one-off capital costs - purchases of computer equipment or premises, for example

Some interview questions include:

What would you say is your leadership style?

You have an underperforming team member–how do you handle that?

Your team's morale has been low–how would you go about fixing that?

Tell me about a past project that did not go as planned.

2. One key disadvantage of a static budget is that it is not flexible and so it cannot be changed to take advantage of changes in revenue or expenses as the year proceeds. With a static budget, companies cannot manage the impact of changes, for example, by decreasing a portion of the budget in response to slow sales.

Last year Hamdi Corp. had sales of $500,000, operating costs of $450,000, and year-end assets (which is equal to its total invested capital) of $435,000. The debt-to-total-capital ratio was 17%, the interest rate on the debt was 7.5%, and the firm's tax rate was 35%. The new CFO wants to see how the ROE would have been affected if the firm had used a 50% debt-to-total-capital ratio. Assume that sales, operating costs, total assets, total invested capital, and the tax rate would not be affected, but the interest rate would rise to 8.0%. By how much would the ROE change in response to the change in the capital structure

Answers

Answer:

1.74%

Explanation:

                               17% Debt       50% Debt

Sales                      $500,000      $500,000

Less: Cost              $450,000      $450,000

Less: Interest         $5,546           $17,400

Profit before tax   $44,454        $32,600

Less: Tax at 35%   $15,559          $11,410

Net Income           $28,895        $21,190

Equity                     $361,050        $217,500

Return on Equity   8.00%             9.74%

Change in ROE = 9.74% - 8.00% = 1.74%

Workings

Interest (17% Debt) = 43,500*17%*7.5% = $5,546

Interest (50% Debt) = 43,500*50%*8% = $17,400

Tax (17% Debt) = $44,454 * 0.35 = 15,559

Tax (50% Debt) = $32,600 * 0.35 = 11,410

Equity (17% Debt) =435,000*83% = 361,050        

Equity (50% Debt) = 435,000*50% = $217,500

Return on Equity = $28,895/$361,050 = 8.00%

Return on Equity = $21,190/$217,500 = 9.74%

Answers

Answer:

$180

Explanation:

Calculation for What are the total overhead costs assigned to Job 101

Using this formula

Total overhead costs assigned to Job 101=(Total Overhead/Total Machine-hours)*Machine-hours

Let plug in the formula

Total overhead costs assigned to Job 101 = ($90,000/10,000) *20

Total overhead costs assigned to Job 101=9*20

Total overhead costs assigned to Job 101=$180

Therefore Total overhead costs assigned to Job 101 will be $180

The outstanding capital stock of Coronado Corporation consists of 1,900 shares of $100 par value, 9% preferred, and 5,400 shares of $50 par value common. Assuming that the company has retained earnings of $87,500, all of which is to be paid out in dividends, and that preferred dividends were not paid during the 2 years preceding the current year, state how much each class of stock should receive under each of the following conditions.

a. The preferred stock is noncumulative and nonparticipating.
b. The preferred stock is cumulative and nonparticipating.
c. The preferred stock is cumulative and participating.

Answers

Answer:

preferred stock dividends = 1,900 x $100 x 9% = $17,100

common stocks = 5,400 stocks

a) distribution of dividends:

preferred stocks = $17,100

common stocks = $70,400

b) distribution of dividends:

preferred stocks = $17,100 x 3 = $51,300

common stocks = $36,200

c) distribution of dividends:

preferred stocks = $51,300 + (1,900/7,300 x $19,100) = $56,271

common stocks = $17,100 + (5,400/7,300 x $19,100) = $29,429

Which of the following scenarios illustrates the law of demand?

B. Kathleen eats more steak when the price is low, and less when the price is high.
C. Francis does not care about the price of coffee at the coffee shop – he must buy two cappuccinos every day, regardless of the price.
D. John likes to drink spring water. At $2 he buys four bottles of water, and at $1.50 he still buys four bottles of water.

Answers

Answer:

Option B is correct.

Explanation:

In order to answer this question correctly, we first need to understand the law of demands.

Law of demands: It says that the relationship of price and quantity demanded is inversely proportional. It means if the price of a particular product goes high, then the quantity of demand will be reduced. Similarly, if the price of the product is low then the quantity of demanded will be higher.

Here,

Option B is the most relevant to the Law of Demand which says that Kathleen eats more steak when the price is low. It means when the price is low, the quantity of steak demanded is higher in Kathleen's case. Furthermore, Kathleen eats less when the price is high. It means, when the price of steak is higher then the quantity of steak demanded from Kathleen is low.

Hence, Option B is the correct option which fulfills the law of demand.

Cash flows: Hillman Corporation reported current assets of $3,495,055 on December 31, 2017 and current assets of $3,103,839 on December 31, 2016. Current liabilities for the firm were $2,867,225 and $2,760,124 at the end of 2017 and 2016, respectively. Compute the cash flow invested in net working capital at Hillman Corporation during 2017.

Answers

Answer:

$284,115

Explanation:

Computation for the cash flow invested in net working capital at Hillman Corporation during 2017.

First step is to calculate the Net working capital for 2017

Net Working Capital 2017 = $3,495,055 - $2,867,225

Net Working Capital 2017 =$627,830

Second step is to calculate the Net Working Capital for 2016

Net Working Capital 2016 = $3,103,839 - $2,760,124

Net Working Capital 2016= $343,715

Now let calculate the cash flow invested in net working capital

2017 Cash flow invested in net working capital=$627,830-$343,715

2017 Cash flow invested in net working capital=$284,115

Therefore the cash flow invested in net working capital at Hillman Corporation during 2017 will be $284,115

Consider an economy in which money does not exist, so that agents rely on barter to carry out transactions. When the economy was small, barter seemed sufficient. However, the economy has now begun to grow. If people in this economy trade five goods, the price tag of each good must list____prices, and the economy requires____prices for people to carry out transactions. Suppose that the number of goods people trade increases to 17. Then the price tag of each good must list____prices, and the number of prices that the economy requires increases to____.
Now suppose that our economy has a money. The government now issues a national currency and there is no longer any barter. In this economy, money and currency are not the same because:____.
1. The fact that the government issues currency means that the currency will be accepted as money by all agents.
2. The fact that the currency is backed by the government means that it will never lose value and will remain a perfect unit of account.
3. Just because the government issues currency does not mean that the currency will be accepted as money, since it must be used as a medium of exchange, store of value and standard of value.
4. Just because the government issues currency does not mean that the currency will be accepted as money, and buyers and sellers still need barter to ensure that money does not lose its value.
Suppose now that our economy is suffering from rapid, ongoing increases in the cost of living. Which characteristic of money is directly negatively impacted in that economy?
1.Medium of exchange.
2.Double coincidence of wants.
3.Store of value.
4.Unit of account.

The following is Arkadia Corporation's contribution format income statement for last month: Sales $1,200,000 Variable expenses 800,000 Contribution margin 400,000 Fixed expenses 300,000 Net operating income $100,000 The company has no beginning or ending inventories and produced and sold 20,000 units during the month. (Each requirement is worth 3 points for a total of 18 points) Required: a. What is the company's contribution margin ratio

Answers

Answer:

Missing word "sold 20,000 units during the month at a sales price of $60 per unit.. b. What is the company's degree of operating leverage? c. How many units would the company have to sell to achieve a desired operating income before taxes of $150,000?"

a. Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution margin / Sales

= 400000 / 1200000

= 0.3333

= 33.33%

b. Operating Leverage = Contribution / Net Income

= 400000 / 100000

= 4 Times

c. Sale to achieve desired profit = (Fixed Cost + Desired Profit) / Contribution Margin Ratio

= (300000 + 150000) / 0.3333

= $1350000

Sales in Units = $1350000 / 60 units = 22500 units

Part II: Article II, Section I of the U.S. Constitution provides that the president must "take care that the laws be faithfully executed." Presidents have used this authority to issue executive orders, which are orders to federal agencies that are a part of the executive branch and which contain detailed instructions on how laws enacted by Congress should be carried out.

Presidents are not specifically given the power to issue executive orders by the U.S. Constitution. Is it appropriate for the president to exercise powers that the Constitution does not specifically grant to him or her? Why, or why not?

Answers

Answer: Yes it is.

Explanation:

The Constitution puts the President at the head of the Executive branch of government and provides that the President should ensure that the laws of the land are faithfully executed.

Seeing as executive orders are issued to members of the executive - which are under the President - and are done to ensure that the laws of the land are carried out, the President is not only following the Constitution's directives in  Article II, Section I of the Constitution but doing it within their power as head of the executive.

Executive orders are therefore an implied constitutional power that the President has.

You start a new business in town that is very successful. However, you find out after the first year of operation that you must have a safety permit, and that safety permit must be obtained upon commencement of your business. Obviously you have violated the law. You never had any training in running a business nor did anyone tell you about this law. You can tell the judge you did not know what the law was and he will dismiss your case because of that.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

b. False

Explanation:

False, the judge will not dismiss your case because the fact that you did not know about the safety permit does not exonerate you from fulfilling or breaching the law. As an entrepreneur, it is your legal responsability to meet all license requirements and permits that opening a business in your state requires.

It is false that the judge will dismiss your case because of ignorance.

What is ignorance of the law?

It is a legal principle that binds a person that is not aware of law and such individual may not escape the liability for violating the law merely by not being aware of its content.

Although ignorance of the law, is not a defence for violating a principle or law.

It is important as an entrepreneur, to meet all license and permits requirements for opening a business in your state.

Therefore, It is false that the judge will dismiss your case because of ignorance.

An investor, who believes the economy is slowing down, wishes to reduce the risk of her portfolio. She currently owns 12 securities, each with a market value of $3,000. The current beta of the portfolio is 1.21 and the beta of the riskiest security is 1.62. What will the portfolio beta be if the riskiest security is replaced with a security of equal market value but a beta of 0.80

Answers

Answer:

1.14

Explanation:

Investors has number of securities = 12

Each with a market value = $3,000

Current beta of the portfolio (before replacement of riskiest security ) = 1.21

Beta of the riskiest security= 1.62

If the riskiest security is replaced = 0.80

Portfolio Beta before replacement of the riskiest security = Remaining number of securities / total number of securities * Beta of securities + Number of riskiest security / total number of securities * Beta of the riskiest security

Portfolio Beta before replacement of the riskiest security = Weight of securities*Beta of securities + Weight of riskiest security*Beta of riskiest security

Let the beta of securities be x.

1.21 =11/12 *x + 1/12 *1.62

1.21 =11/12 *x +0.135

1.21-0.135 = 11/12 x

1.075 =11/12 x

x = 1.075*12/11

x = 1.1727

Beta of securities = 1.17

Portfolio beta after the replacement of the riskiest security = 11/12*1.17 +1/12*0.8 = 1.0725 + 0.0666 = 1.1391 = 1.14

Jeremiah expressed his disdain for the economic reports he heard on the news. "All economists care about is increasing GDP," he said. "I wish economists cared about living conditions and well-being instead of just some economic indicator." How could you acknowledge the shortcomings of GDP to Jeremiah, while also showing him how GDP functions as both an economic indicator and a measure of well-being? While it is true that GDP calculations omit such things as and , it is still a useful way to measure .

Answers

Answer: the value as opposed to the price of an item; environmental degradation; total output and income.

Explanation:

While it is true that GDP calculations omit such things as the value as opposed to the price of an item and environmental degradation, it is still a useful way to measure total output and income.

Gross Domestic Product is a means of measuring economic performance over a given period(usually a year). It works by adding up the final value of the goods and services produced in a country in that given period and thus can show the total output and income in a country.

Sadly however, it has some shortcomings. One of those is that it uses the prices of goods not their actual value. Another is that it does not take into account important factors such as environmental degradation which if added, would reduce GDP because the environment on average suffers negatively from production.

On January 1, 2020, HD Corp. paid $60,000 and issued a 5-year noninterest bearing note payable with a face value of $120,000 in exchange for a piece of equipment. The applicable interest rate is 8%. HD Corp depreciates over a straight-line basis and utilizes the effective interest method to record interest expense.

Fiji had issued 50 shares of stock when it went into business in 2019 for $10 per share, and not stock has been issued since that time. At December 31, 2025, Fiji had $23,000 in assets and $4,000 in liabilities. How much was Fiji's net income during 2025 if the company paid $1,000 in dividends during the year?

Given that;

Beginning asset = $12,000

Dividend = $1,000

Beginning liabilities = $2,500

Net income

= $12,000 + $1,000 - $2,500

= $10,500

You are looking at a one-year loan of $26,000. The interest rate is quoted as 11 percent plus two points. A point on a loan is 1 percent (one percentage point) of the loan amount. Quotes similar to this one are common with home mortgages. The interest rate quotation in this example requires the borrower to pay two points to the lender up front and repay the loan later with 11 percent interest.
What rate would you actually be paying here? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Interest rate %

Answers

Answer:

the rate of interest is 13.27%

Explanation:

The computation of the actual rate paid is shown below;

Present value is

= $26,000 - 2% of $26,000

= $26,000 - $520

= $25,480

The future value is

= $26,000 × (1 + 0.11)

= $28,860

Now as we know that

Future value = Present value × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years

$28,860 = $25,480 × (1 + rate of interest)

So, the rate of interest is 13.27%
