Consider the market for mobile applications, smartphones, and conventional phones. For each pair, identify whether they are complements or substitutes:
Pairs of Goods and Services Complements Substitutes
Mobile applications and smartphones
Mobile applications and conventional phones
Smartphones and conventional phones
Answer:
Mobile Applications and Smart Phones are Complements
Smart Phones and Conventional Phones are Substitutes
Mobile Applications and Conventional Phones are substitutes.
Explanation:
Complement goods are goods that can be used or consumed together. E.g. car and gas. A car would not work without gas. A rise in price of a good leads to a fall in demand of the complement good.
Subsituite goods rival one another in consumption. They can be used in place of another good.
A rise in price of a good leads to a rise in demand of the other good.

Jeanie acquires an apartment building in 2008 for $280,000 and sells it for $480,000 in 2019. At the time of sale there is $60,000 of accumulated straight-line depreciation on the apartment building. Assuming Jeanie is in the highest tax bracket for ordinary income and the Medicare tax on net investment income applies, how much of her gain is taxed at 28.8 percent?
Answer:
$60,000
Explanation:
According to section 1250 of the Internal Revenue Service, the depreciation previously allowed as a deduction would now be taxed in the case of ordinary income at the highest tax level.
And, For this, the asset should be depreciated real property.
In the question, there is depreciation charged for apartment building so the same is eligible
The eligibility is allowed up to $60,000 and the same is to be considered

Privacy:_______.
a. is an absolute value.
b. must be respected if we are to function as complete, self-governing agents.
c. is something that employees today don't care about.
d. is guaranteed by Article 3, section 3, of the Constitution.
Answer: b. must be respected if we are to function as complete, self-governing agents.
Explanation:
Privacy enables humans to be able to figure out who they are and what they want in life. By giving a person the right to privacy instead of interfering in their lives you are essentially giving them the power to make their own decisions and trusting them to do well with this right.
By respecting privacy therefore, humans are better able to function as complete and independent agents who can take charge of their own lives without having to worry about interference with the intent to influence.
1. Of the 4 strategic approaches to international markets, which one(s) might be the best for a manufacturing company? a financial services company? or a company like Coke or Pepsi? Thoughts? 2. What strategy option for entering a foreign market might you employ if your firm is technology-centric? 3. What strategy option for entering a foreign market might you use if you were a start-up or smaller firm? 4. Why is the Think Global- Act Local strategy appear to be the best for many companies wishing to go global?
Answer:
1a. For manufacturing company– Buying a local manufacturing company
b. For a financial services company– Partnership
c. A company like Coke or Pepsi– Greenfield Investments
Explanation:
1a. Buying a local company saves valuable resources for the foreign manufacturing, and it allows for quick market knowledge since this company has already been in operations for a long time.
b. A partnership would be best for a financial services company, this would involve a smooth transition into new markets without having to spend much on physical structures as the domestic company is already having necessary infrastructures in place.
c. Coke and Pepsi would preferably choose to use the Greenfield investment strategy by building a new plant from the ground up because of its established quality standards as well as trade mark and intellectual property protection.
2. A technology-centric firm would benefit most by buying a Company because of the already available market share as well as benefiting from reduced government regulations.
3. If one is operating a start-up or smaller firm of course cost would be a major consideration, therefore selling out License to foreign companies may be effective. This would transfer the rights to use a product or service in a different market geography.
4. It provides a good foresight into the requirements needed to enter foreign markets.
*Reintermediation takes place when Intermediaries provide only matching services between buyers and sellers. O Disintermediated entitles or newcomers take on new Intermediary roles O Intermediaries provide only relevant information about demand O Disintermediated entitles or newcomers take on existing intermediary roles O
Answer: Disintermediated entitles or newcomers take on new Intermediary roles
Explanation:
Disintermediation refers to, for example, stockbrokers who only execute trade manually being left behind because of the development of online transactions.
However, new developments might bring new intermediary roles. Following our example, brokers who turn to electronic intermediation (or newcomers who take on the new intermediary role) prosper through reintermediation
Suppose that a labor economist performs a statistical analysis on economywide worker wages using standard, measurable explanatory factors, such as job characteristics, years of schooling, and so forth. How much of the variation in worker wages can be accounted for by such measurable explanatory factors
Answer: Somewhat less than 50%
Explanation:
Here is the complete question;
Suppose that a labor economist performs a statistical analysis on economywide worker wages using standard, measurable explanatory factors, such as job characteristics, years of schooling, and so forth. How much of the variation in worker wages can be accounted for by such measurable explanatory factors?
a. Somewhat less than 50%.
b. Somewhat more than 60%
c. Nearly 100%
d. About 0%?
The variables which are typically removed from the quantitative analysis of wages are those which cannot be directly measured, directly observed or normative in nature.
Chance plays a vital role in deciding ones wage, the type of job one applies for and gets, and the salary that can be gotten. Chance cannot neither be measured nor observed. Natural ability cannot also be quantified, observed or measured. These variables are also subject to normative judgement.
Based on this analysis, the measurable traits will account for less than 50% of total variation in the wages.
Ford Motor Company is discussing new ways to recapitalize the firm and raise additional capital. Its current capital structure has a 20% weight in equity, 10% in preferred stock, and 70% in debt. The cost of equity capital is 14%, the cost of preferred stock is 10%, and the pretax cost of debt is 9%. What is the weighted average cost of capital for Ford if its marginal tax rate is 30%?
Answer: 8.21%
Explanation:
The Weighted Average Cost of Capital(WACC) simply put, is the rate at which a company pays those who have invested in it and financed it be it debt holders or equity holders.
The rates in question are averaged according to the proportion by which the company uses the said capital. This results in the following formula,
WACC= [(Wd*Rd) * (1-Tax) + (We * Re) +(Wp * Rp )]
Where,
Wd is the Weight of debt
We is the weight of common Equity
Wp is the weight of preferred Equity
Rd is the Pre-tax cost of debt
Re is the cost of common Equity
Rp is the cost of Preferred equity.
Note: Sometimes you will be given the After - tax cost of debt. In which case you will not need to include the tax adjustment of (1 - tax).
Calculating,
= [( 70% * 9%) * ( 1 - 30%) + (20% * 14%) + (10% * 10%) ]
= 0.0441 + 0.028 + 0.01
= 0.0821
= 8.21%
Calculate the firm’s WACC (using 2018 numbers). (You will need to collect information on the long-term debt and common stock equity from the Balance Sheet. The firm has no preferred stock).
Use the WACC to calculate NPV and evaluate IRR for proposed capital budgeting projects. Assume the projects are mutually exclusive and the firm has the money available to fund the project
A 7.5% percent annual coupon bond with 20 years to maturity, selling for 104 percent of par. The bonds make semiannual payments. What is the before tax cost of debt? If the tax rate is 40%, what is the after-tax cost of debt?
The firm’s beta is 1.2. The risk-free rate is 4.0% and the expected market return is 9%. What is the cost of equity using CAPM?
Answer:
Before tax cost of debt is 7.12%
After tax cost of debt is 4.27%
Cost of equity is 10%
Explanation:
The before-tax cost of debt can be determined using excel rate formula as found below:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the number of semiannual payments the bond has i.e 20*2=40
pmt is the amount of semiannual payment=$1000*7.5%*6/12=$ 37.50
pv is the current price =$1000*104%=$1,040.00
fv is the face value of $1000
=rate(40,37.50,-1040,1000)=3.56%
The 3.56% is semiannual yield, hence 7.12% per year (3.56%*2)
After-tax cost of debt=7.12%*(1-t) where is the tax rate of 40% or 0.4
after-tax cost of debt=7.12%*(1-0.40)=4.27%
Cost of equity is determined using the below CAPM formula:
Ke=Rf+Beta*(Mr-Rf)
Rf is the risk free rate of 4%
Beta is 1.2
Mr is the market return of 9%
Ke=4%+1.2(9%-4%)=10.00%
Pincus Associates uses the allowance method to account for bad debts. During 2021, its first year of operations, Pincus provided a total of $156,000 of services on account. In 2021, the company wrote off uncollectible accounts of $6,300. By the end of 2021, cash collections on accounts receivable totaled $132,300. Pincus estimates that 10% of the accounts receivable balance at 12/31/2021 will prove uncollectible.
Required:
1. & 2. What journal entry did Pincus record to write off uncollectible accounts during 2021 and to recognize bad debt expense for 2021? (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)

Note: Enter debits before credits.
Event General Journal Debit Credit
2
Answer: the answer is given below
Explanation:
It should be noted that the account receivable ending balance was calculated as:
Credit sales = 156,000
Less: collection of account= 132,300
Less: written off = 6,300
= 17,400
The bad debt expense was calculated as:
= (17,400 × 10%) + 6300
= (17400 × 0.1) + 6300
= 1740 + 6300
= 8040

Match the following terms with the best definition given.
a. Currently attainable standard
b. Favorable cost variance
c. Ideal standard
d. Nonfinancial performance measure
e. Unfavorable cost variance
- An example is number of customer complaints.
- Actual cost > standard cost at actual volumes
- Actual cost < standard cost at actual volumes
- Normal standard
- Theoretical standard
Answer: Please refer to Explanation
Explanation:
a. Currently attainable standard - Normal standard.
When a company says that a certain level of production is it's Currently Attainable Standard, they mean that this is the normal standard that they are able to operate in. That it is the standard that they have the actual capacity to produce at and so is normal for them.
b. Favorable cost variance - Actual cost < standard cost at actual volumes.
Variance cost in production is a measure that compares the cost that a company budgets to be able to produce a good vs the actual amount it takes to produce the said good. When the Budget is higher than the actual cost of production, it is said to be a FAVOURABLE balance because the budget was not exceeded.
c. Ideal standard - Theoretical standard.
This is the Standard that the company would like to be producing at to make a certain level of profit. It is usually different from the Normal Standard and the goal of most of not all companies is to work towards attaining their Ideal standard. They usually make Theoretical forecasts about their Ideal Standard.
d. Nonfinancial performance measure - An example is number of customer complaints.
There are many ways to measure performance but those ways are usually group into 2 categories being Financial and Non-financial measures of performance. The number of customer complaints that a business gets is a type of Non-financial Performance. As the intended market for a product, Customers are the most important appraisers of a Company's goods and services and if there are relatively low customer complaints, this shows that the company is performing well as they are able to please their customers.
e. Unfavorable cost variance - Actual cost > standard cost at actual volumes
As mentioned before, Variance helps determine the cost of production vs the budgeted cost of production. When a cost Variance is labeled as Unfavourable, it means that the Actual Cost exceeded the Budget of the production activity. This is unfavourable because it means that the business had to spend more than it thought it would on production thereby harming it's profit margins.
Weisman, Inc. uses activity-based costing as the basis for information to set prices for its six lines of seasonal coats.
Activity Cost Pools Estimated Overhead Estimated Use of Cost Drivers per
Activity

Sizing and cutting 3,948,000 168,000 machine hours
Stitching and trimming 1,479,725 78,500 labor hours
Wrapping and packing 333,000 30,000 finished units
Compute the activity-based overhead rates using the following budgeted data for each of the activity cost pools.
Activity-based overhead rates
Designing $ per designer hour
Sizing and cutting $ per machine hour
Stitching and trimming $ per labor hour
Wrapping and packing $ per finished unit
Answer:
Designing = $32.50 per designer hour
Sizing and cutting = $23.50 per machine hour
Stitching and trimming = $18.85 per labor hour
Wrapping and packing = $11.10 per finished unit
Explanation:
The Activity Based Overhead Costing involves calculation of cost driver rate for each activity center.
Cost Driver Rate = Cost of Activity / Number of Times that Activity is Performed
Designing = $455,000 / 14,000
= $32.50
Sizing and cutting = $3,948,000 / 168,000
= $23.50
Stitching and trimming = $1,479,725 / 78,500
= $18.85
Wrapping and packing = $333,000 / 30,000
= $11.10

You work for a company that ends their fiscal year on September 30th. The company billed its customers for services provided in August, but they have not yet received payment for these services. Assuming the company uses accrual accounting, how should this transaction be recorded
Answer:
Debit Accounts receivable
Credit Service Revenue
Being entries for services rendered to customers in August
Explanation:
Under accrual accounting, revenue is recognized once it is earned which is when the goods or services have been delivered to the customers such that the risk and reward or control of the goods/services now lies with the customer.
This is different from the cash basis of accounting where revenue is only recognized when cash has been received.
In accrual accounting, When revenue is earned but cash is yet to be received,
Debit Accounts receivable
Credit Revenue account
On receipt of cash,
Debit Cash account
Credit Accounts receivable.
One-year Treasury securities yield 4.15%. The market anticipates that 1 year from now, 1-year Treasury securities will yield 4.4%. If the pure expectations theory is correct, what is the yield today for 2-year Treasury securities
Answer:
The yield today for 2-year Treasury securities is 4.27%
Explanation:
In order to calculate the yield today for 2-year Treasury securities we would have to calculate the following formula:
2-year treasury yield = [(1 + 1-yr treasury yield) * (1 + 1-yr treasury yield, 1 year from now)]1/2 - 1
= [(1 + 0.0415) * (1 + 0.044)]∧1/2 - 1
= [1.0873]∧0.5 - 1
= 1.0427 - 1 = 0.0427, or 4.27%
The yield today for 2-year Treasury securities is 4.27%
Johnson Company uses the allowance method to account for uncollectible accounts receivable. Bad debt expense is established as a percentage of credit sales. For 2018, net credit sales totaled $5,800,000, and the estimated bad debt percentage is 1.40%. The allowance for uncollectible accounts had a credit balance of $55,000 at the beginning of 2018 and $46,500, after adjusting entries, at the end of 2018. Required: 1. What is bad debt expense for 2018 as a percent of net credit sales
Answer:
Bad debt expense for 2018 is $81,200
Explanation:
2018 net credit sales = $5,800,000
Estimated bad debt percentage = 1.40%.
The allowance for uncollectible accounts had a credit balance of $55,000 at the beginning of 2018 and $46,500, after adjusting entries, at the end of 2018.
Bad debt expense = Estimated bad debt percentage × net credit sales
= 1.40% × $5,800,000
= $ 81,200
Baka Corporation applies manufacturing overhead on the basis of direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the most recent year, the company based its predetermined overhead rate on total estimated overhead of $243,000 and 8,000 estimated direct labor-hours. Actual manufacturing overhead for the year amounted to $244,200 and actual direct labor-hours were 5,700.The applied manufacturing overhead for the year was closest to:________
a. 229586
b. 234600
c. 242006
d. 236854
Answer:
Allocated overhead= $173,137.5
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated overhead= $243,000
Estimated direct-labor hours= 8,000
Actual direct labor-hours were 5,700.
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 243,000/8,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $30.375 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead based on actual direct labor hours:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated overhead= 30.375*5,700= $173,137.5
Agency theory presents some important managerial considerations. Broadly speaking, governance mechanisms need to assure alignment of incentives between principals and agents. The text provides an example of financial institutions in the situation of profits remaining within the firm while losses are paid by the public as a description of:________.A) a board of directors' problem.B) a challenge of information symmetry.C) a moral hazard problem.D) a private information problem.E) an adverse selection problem.
Answer: a moral hazard problem
Explanation:
Agency theory is a principle used to explain and resolve the issues in the relationship that exists between business principals and their agents. The relationship is usually the one between the shareholders who act as the principals, and the company executives who act as the agents.
When banks are bailed out through public funds for the excessive risky mortgage obligations or undue risk taking, this lead to increase in moral hazard. The gains of successful risk taking will stay with the private firm and the risks would be shared with the other parties.
A mail-order house uses 18,000 boxes a year. Carrying costs are 60 cents per box a year, and ordering costs are $96. The following price schedule applies. Determine: a. The optimal order quantity. b. The number of orders per year.
Answer:
Hie, the price schedule is missing from your question however the important principles are explained below.
a. The optimal order quantity
Optimum order quantity is the order level that results in minimum ordering costs and holding costs.
Optimum order quantity = √ (2 × Annual Demand × Cost per order) / holding cost per unit
b. The number of orders per year.
orders per year = Annual Demand / optimal order quantity
This calculates the number of orders to be placed during the year at the optimum order quantity.

Answer:
$42,969,487
$ 39,100,000
$ 35,745,399
Explanation:
The price of the bond using the pv formula in excel is given thus:
=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)
rate is the market rate divided by 2 since interest is payable twice a year
nper is 20year multiplied by 2 which gives 40
pmt is the semiannual coupon=$39,100,000*9%*6/12=$1,759,500.00
fv is the face value of $39,100,000
market rate of 8%
=-pv(8%/2,40,1759500,39100000)=$42,969,487
market rate of 9%
=-pv(9%/2,40,1759500,39100000)=$ 39,100,000
market rate of 10%
=-pv(10%/2,40,1759500,39100000)=$35,745,399
Asset management ratios are used to measure how effectively a firm manages its assets, by relating the amount a firm has invested in a particular type of asset (or group of assets) to the amount of revenues the asset is generating. Examples of asset management ratios include the average collection period (also called the days sales outstanding ratio), the inventory turnover ratio, the fixed asset turnover ratio, and the total asset turnover ratio.
Consider the following case:
Walker Telecommunications has a quick ratio of 2.00x, $35,550 in cash, $19,750 in accounts receivable, some inventory, total current assets of $79,000, and total current liabilities of $27,650. The company reported annual sales of $200,000 in the most recent annual report.
Over the past year, how often did Walker Telecommunications sell and replace its inventory?
a. 8.01 x
b. 5.24 x
c. 2.85 x
d. 4.75x
Answer:
Option A 8.01x is the closest answer
Explanation:
Quick ratio =current assets-inventory/current liabilities
let x represent the value of inventory
quick ratio is 2.00
current assets is $79,000
current liabilities is $27,650
2.00=$79,000-x/$27650
2.00*$27,650=$79,000-x
$55,300=$79,000-x
x=$79,000-$55,300
x= $23,700.00
Inventory turnover =sales/inventory
sales is $200,000
Inventory value is $23,700
inventory turnover ratio=$200,000/$23,700=8.44
The closest option is A,
On January 1, 20X8, Potter Corporation acquired 90 percent of Shoemaker Company’s voting stock, at underlying book value. The fair value of the noncontrolling interest was equal to 10 percent of the book value of Shoemaker at that date. Potter uses the fully adjusted equity method in accounting for its ownership of Shoemaker. On December 31, 20X9, the trial balances of the two companies are as follows: Based on the preceding information, what amount would be reported as income to controlling interest in the consolidated financial statements for 20X9?
Answer:
$138,000
Explanation:
Subsidiary is a company which is controlled by its parent. Potter Corporation acquired 90% stock in Shoemaker Company. The non controlling interest is 10% in Shoemaker Company. The company made a profit of $1,380,000. The 90% share will be allocated to the parent company and only 10% share will be allocated to the Non Controlling Interest.

You are given the following information concerning a noncallable, sinking fund debenture: Principal: $1,000 Coupon rate of interest: 7 percent Term to maturity: 15 years Sinking fund: 5 percent of outstanding bonds retired annually; the balance at maturity If you buy the bond today at its face amount and interest rates rise to 12 percent after three years have passed, what is your capital gain or loss
Answer:
Explanation:
A) If you buy the bond today at its face amount and interest rates rise to 12% after three years have passed what is your capital gain or loss?
B) If you hold the bond 15 years what do you recive at maturity?
C) What is the bond current yield as of right now?
D) Given your price in a, what is the yield of maturity
E) Is there any reason to believe that the bond will be called after three years have elapsed if interest rates decline
F) what proportion of the total debt issue is retired by the sinking fund
G) What assets secure this bond?
h) If the final payment to retire this bond is $1,000,000 how much must the firm invest to accumulate this sum if the firm is able to earn 7% on the invest funds.
A) If the interest rates rise to 12%, the price of the bond assuming semi-annual interest payments, will be
1000*pvif(6,24) + 35*pvifa(6,24)
= 1000*0.2470 +35*12.5504
= 247 + 439.26 = $686.26
The capital gain would be 1000 - 686.26 = $313.74.
B) Bond face value is $1000 and coupon rate is 7%. Half yearly interest = 1000*7%/2 = $35.
Maturity value of $1000, plus half yearly interest of $35.
C) The bonds current yield = 7%, assuming the price of the bond is $1000 today.
D) The yield to maturity is 12%.
E) No, the bonds are not callable.
F) 5% of the bonds are retired every year. So 14 years * 5 = 70%. Balance 30% is paid full at EOY 15.
5%*14 = 70%.
G) Debentures are not secured by any specific asset.
H) It is not specified as to how the money would be invested; whether its a
lump sum invested on day 0 or equal amounts invested at each year end
If it a lump sum to be invested now, the amount should be 1000000/107^15 = $362,446
If it in equal amounts to be invested each year end the annual investments is given by 1,000,000/fvifa(7,15)
= 1000000/25.1290
= $3979.
