Suppose that the experiment to toss a balanced coin three times independently. Define the following events
• A is the event of getting at least one head
• B is the event of getting exactly two heads and one tail
• C is the event of getting all three coins with the same side
Please answer I have exam tomorrow and I don’t know how I answer
Answer:
Probability = 7/9
Probability = 3/9
Probability = 2/9
Explanation:
Total probability = 2³ = 9
Computation:
A is the event of getting at least one head
Probability = Event of getting at least one head / Total event
Probability = 7/9
B is the event of getting exactly two heads and one tail
Probability = 3/9
C is the event of getting all three coins with the same side
Probability = 2/9
TeleGlobal is an American firm producing TV sets. TeleGlobal imports TV set components from Taiwan and assemb them domestically. Suppose that in the United States, a TV set sells for $500 and that 80% of the TV set's value comes from the value of the imported components. The United States imposes a 30% tariff on TV sets and a 10% tariff on the TV set's components. Assume that costs of producing components are the same in the United States a Taiwan. Based on the information provided, the effective rate of protection that TeleGlobal receives from the tariff is:__________.
a. -17.5%
b. 70.0%
c. 110.0%
d. 24.4%
e. 47.5%
Answer:
c. 110.0%
Explanation:
Effective Rate of Protection (ERP) = (t1 - at2) / (1 - a)
Where t1: Nominal tariff rate on imported final product = 30% = 0.3
t2: Nominal tariff rate on imported input = 10% = 0.1
a: (Value of imported input / Value of finished good) = 80% = 0.8
ERP = (t1 - at2) / (1 - a)
ERP = 0.3 - (0.8*0.1) / (1 - 0.8)
ERP = 0.3 - 0.08 / 0.2
ERP = 0.22 / 0.2
ERP = 1.1
ERP = 110%
4. Which of the following are NOT typical characters used in a commercial by a company marketing to teenagers?
A Popular Radio DJs
B Current Hip-Hop Artists
C Popular Classical Musicians
D Popular Professional Athletes
Answer:
C Popular Classical Musicians
Explanation:
Classical music was a trendy music genre some decades ago. Popular classical musicians had an appeal and influence over the generation of that time. Classical music is still present but does not attract the young generation in multitudes.
For marketing to be effective, the target audience should identify with characters or content in the advertisement. Commercial targeting teenagers will be more influential with popular radio DJs, current hip-hop artists, and popular professional athletes as characters. Today's teenagers will not identify themselves with popular classical musicians as this music genre is not trendy anymore.
Kiner Co. computed an overhead rate for machining costs ($520000) of $5 per machine hour. Machining costs are driven by machine hours. If computed based on direct labor hours, the overhead rate for machining costs would be $10 per direct labor hour. The company produces two products, Cape and Chap. Cape requires 62400 machine hours and 20000 direct labor hours, while Chap requires 41600 machine hours and 30000 direct labor hours. Using activity-based costing, machining costs assigned to each product is
Answer:
Cape $312,000
Chap $208,000
Explanation:
Calculation for the machining costs assigned to each product
Using this formula
Machining costs =Machine hours×Machine amount per hour.
Let plug in the formula
Cape= 62,400x $5per machine hour.
Cape=$312,000
Chap= 41,600x $5per machine hour.
Chap=$208,000
Therefore Using activity-based costing, machining costs assigned to each product is:
Cape $312,000

A company makes bicycles. It produces 850 bicycles a month. It buys the tires for bicycles from a supplier at a cost of Rs.60 per tire. The company’s inventory carrying cost is estimated to be 15% of cost and the ordering is Rs.90 per order. Compute EOQ.
A: 639 tires
B: 522 tires
C: 580 tires
D: 621 tires
From the information given in the question above , Calculate number of orders to be made per year.
A: 35 orders
B: 39 orders
C: 37 orders
D: 32 orders
Answer:
B: 522 tires
B: 39 orders
Explanation:
a. Calculation for EOQ
First step is to Calculate the Annual Demand which is D
D = Annual demand = (2 tires per bicycle) x (850 bicycles per month) x (12 months in a year)
D=20,400 tires
Second step the ordering cost is given in the question which is :
S = Ordering cost = 90 per order
Third step is to Calculate the carrying cost which is H
H = carrying cost = (15%) x ($60 per unit)
H= $ 13.50 per unit per year
Last step is to Calculate the EOQ
EOQ = √{ (2 x 20,400 x $90) / $13.50
EOQ= 522 tires
Therefore the EOQ is 522 tires which means that the company should order 522 tires each time they places an order.
b. Calculation for the number of orders per year
Using this formula
Number of orders per year = D / Q
Let plug in the formula
Number of orders per year = 20,400 / 522
Number of orders per year = 39 orders per year
Therefore the Number of orders per year will be
39 orders per year.
On December 31, 2022, Monty Company prepared an income statement and balance sheet and failed to take into account three adjusting entries. The incorrect income statement showed net income of $44,000. The balance sheet showed total assets, $166,400; total liabilities, $66,000; and stockholders’ equity, $100,400. The data for the three adjusting entries were: (1) Depreciation of $9,720 was not recorded on equipment. (2) Salaries and wages amounting to $10,720 for the last two days in December were not paid and not recorded. The next payroll will be in January. (3) Rent of $7,520 was paid for two months in advance on December 1. The entire amount was debited to Prepaid Rent when paid.
Answer:
Salaries and Wages are owed so they are now liabilities. They are also expenses and will reduce the Net Income.
Rent Revenue was in advance for 2 months meaning one of those months will be December which is in the current period so;
= 7,520/2
= $3,760 will be added to net income for the year
The same amount will be removed from Liabilities as the revenue has now been recognized.
Depreciation reduces the value of Fixed assets so will be deducted from Assets.
It is also an expense so it will reduce Net Income.
Whatever happens to Net Income will happen to Stockholders' equity as well because Net Income is an Equity account.
Azule Co. manufactures in two sequential processes, cutting and binding. The two departments report the information below for a recent month. Cutting Binding Beginning work in process Transferred in from cutting dept. $ 1,250 Direct materials $ 1,070 2,766 Conversion 3,400 3,350 Costs added during March Direct materials $ 10,140 $ 9,456 Conversion 11,100 18,725 Transferred in from cutting dept. 17,110 Transferred to finished goods 33,000 Determine the ending balances in the Work in Process Inventory accounts of each department.
Answer:
Cutting $8,600
Binding $19,657
Explanation:
Calculation to Determine the ending balances in the Work in Process Inventory accounts of each department
Ending work in process:
Cutting = $1,070 + $3,400+ $10,140 + $11,100- $17,110
Cutting = $8,600
Binding = $1,250 + $2,766 + $3,350+ $9,456+ $18,725 + $17,110 - $33,000
Binding= $19,657
Therefore the ending balances in the Work in Process Inventory accounts of each department is:
Cutting $8,600
Binding $19,657
Today you are feeling bullish on UPP stock. You decide the best way to play that opinion is to purchase 5 call options that expire in 4 months with a strike price of 70.00. To lower your risk and your cost basis you simultaneously sell 3 call options that also expire in 4 months with a strike price of 77.50. The current stock price is 70.80. The price of the 70-strike call is 5.50 and the price of the 77.50 strike call is 2.40. The current continuously compounded risk free rate is 3% (annual). 3.
a. Calculate your profit/loss if the ending price of one share of UPP stock is 80.00.
b. Calculate your profit/loss if the ending price of one share of UPP stock is 65.00.
Answer:
a. Total profit = $22.2
b. Total profit = -$20.3 / Loss of $20.3.
Explanation:
a) If ending price is $80
Profit of long call = No. of contracts * [max(St - X,0) - premium paid]
Long call profit = 5 * [max(80 - 70,0) - 5.5]
Long call profit = 5 * [10 - 5.5]
Long call profit = $22.5
Profit of short call = No. of contracts * [-max(St - X, 0) + Premium received]
Profit of short call = 3 * [-max(80 - 77.5, 0) + 2.4]
Profit of short call = 3 * [-2.5 + 2.4]
Profit of short call = -$0.3
Total profit = Long call profit - Profit of short call
Total profit = 22.5 - 0.3
Total profit = $22.2
b) If ending price is $65
Profit of long call = No. of contracts * [max(St - X,0) - premium paid]
Profit of long call = 5 * [max(65 - 70, 0) - 5.5]
Profit of long call = 5 * [0 - 5.5]
Profit of long call = -$27.5
Profit of short call = No. of contracts * [-max(St - X, 0) + Premium received]
Profit of short call = 3 * [-max(65 - 77.5, 0) + 2.4]
Profit of short call = 3 * [0 + 2.4]
Profit of short call = $7.2
Total profit = Long call profit - Profit of short call
Total profit = -27.5 + 7.2
Total profit = -$20.3 / Loss of $20.3.
Jamie's Motor Home Sales currently sells 1,100 Class A motor homes, 2,200 Class C motor homes, and 2,800 pop-up trailers each year. Jamie is considering adding a mid-range camper and expects that if she does so she can sell 1,500 of them. However, if the new camper is added, Jamie expects that her Class A sales will decline to 850 units while the Class C camper sales decline to 2,000. The sales of pop-ups will not be affected. Class A motor homes sell for an average of $140,000 each. Class C homes are priced at $59,500 and the pop-ups sell for $5,000 each. The new mid-range camper will sell for $42,900. What is the erosion cost of adding the mid-range camper
Answer:
$46,900,000
Explanation:
Calculation for the erosion cost of adding the mid-range camper
Erosion cost = [(1,100 - 850) × $140,000] + [(2,200 -2,000) × $59,500]
Erosion cost =(250×$140,000)+(200×$59,500)
Erosion cost =$35,000,000+$11,900,000
Erosion cost = $46,900,000
Therefore the erosion cost of adding the mid-range camper will be $46,900,000

Explanation:
A. Preparation for the schedule of cost of goods manufactured for the year
Schedule cost of goods manufactured
Direct material 51,000
Direct labor 34,500
Overhead 64,000
Total manufacturing cost 149,500
Beginning work in process 17,000
Total Cost of work in process 166,500
Less: Ending work in process (13,500)
Cost of goods manufactured $153,000
(166,500-13,500)
B. Computation for cost of goods sold for the year.
Schedule of cost of goods sold
Beginning finished goods 20,200
Cost of goods manufactured 153,000
Cost of goods available for sale 173,200
(153,000+20,200)
Less; Ending finished goods (20,900)
Cost of goods sold $152,300
(173,200-20,900)
Therefore the schedule of cost of goods manufactured for the year will be $153,000 while the cost of goods sold for the year will be $152,300
For the next fiscal year, you forecast net income of and ending assets of . Your firm's payout ratio is Your beginning stockholders' equity is and your beginning total liabilities are . Your non-debt liabilities such as accounts payable are forecasted to increase by . Assume your beginning debt is . What amount of equity and what amount of debt would you need to issue to cover the net new financing in order to keep your debt-equity ratio constant? The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 temporarily allows 100% bonus depreciation (effectively expensing capital expenditures). However, we will still include depreciation forecasting in this chapter and in these problems in anticipation of the return of standard depreciation practices during your career. The amount of equity to issue will be
Answer:
Since the numbers are missing, I looked for a similar question:
"you forecast net income of $50,000 and ending assets of $500,000. Your firm's payout ratio is 10%. Your beginning stockholders equity is $300,000 and your beginning total liabilities are $120,000. Your non-debt liabilities such as accounts payable are forecasted to increase by $10,000. What is you net new financing needed for next year?"
we must first determine the debt to assets ratio = $120,000 / ($300,000 + $120,000) = 0.2857
since total assets are expected to be $500,000, then total liabilities + equity will also = $500,000 (basic accounting equation)
since debt to equity ratio should remain constant, then:
total liabilities = $500,000 x 0.2857 = $142,850
total equity = $500,000 - $142,850 = $357,150
we can verify our calculations:
old debt to equity ratio = $120,000 / $300,000 = 0.4
new debt to equity ratio = $142,820 / $357,150 = 0.4
since your current equity = $300,000, you will need to raise $57,150
your current liabilities + future accounts payable = $120,000 + $10,000 = $130,000, therefore, you will need to issue debt for $142,850 - $130,000 = $12,850
Last week, an investigative reporter for a major metropolitan newspaper discovered that the doctors conducting clinical trials of a new cancer treatment drug are also the principal shareholders in Cancer Solutions Inc. (CSI). CSI is the company developing and attempting to market the drug. Upon being interviewed by federal authorities, the doctors acknowledged their conflict of interest but reported that they were sold the shares at a 75% discount by CSI's chief financial officer. The CFO was concerned that CSI might not be able to meet its annual performance objectives and in turn pay his anticipated multimillion-dollar bonus.
Does an agency conflict exist between CSI's CFO and the company's shareholders?
a. Yes; CSI's CFO engaged in unethical conduct to manipulate the firm's short-term earnings and improve the likelihood of receiving his annual bonus.
b. Yes; the shares should not have been sold at a 75% discount, which is price discrimination.
c. No; professionals, such as doctors and professional money managers, would not participate in unethical activities.
d. No; in general, shareholders are satisfied with company officers engaging in any type of legal or illegal activity to ensure the chances of them receiving greater dividend payments.
Which of the following actions will help ease agency conflicts and better align managers' objectives with the firm's shareholder wealth?
a. Pay the manager a combination of salary and stock options (phased in over several years) that reward him or her for consistently increasing shareholder wealth.
b. Pay the manager a large base salary with a huge stock option package that matures on a single date.
Amalgamated Metals Corporation's stockholders are mostly individual investors, and there is relatively little institutional ownership. If several pension and mutual funds were to take large positions in Amalgamated Metals Corporation's stock, direct shareholder intervention would be___________ likely to motivate the firm's management.
Answer:
FIRST QUESTION
A)Yes; CSI's CFO engaged in unethical conduct to manipulate the firm's short-term earnings and improve the likelihood of receiving his annual bonus.
SECOND QUESTION
A)Pay the manager a combination of salary and stock options (phased in over several years) that reward him or her for consistently increasing shareholder wealth.
Explanation:
We are informed from the question about an investigative reporter for a major metropolitan newspaper discovery about the doctors conducting clinical trials of a new cancer treatment drug are also the principal shareholders in Cancer Solutions Inc. And how The CFO was concerned that CSI might not be able to meet its annual performance objectives and in turn pay his anticipated multimillion-dollar bonus.
In this case there is an agency conflict that exist between CSI's CFO and the company's shareholders, this is because the, CSI's CFO engaged in unethical conduct to manipulate the firm's short-term earnings and improve the likelihood of receiving his annual bonus.
Agency conflict in finance, is also regarded as conflict of interest, usually occur between the management and the shareholders of that company, it is conflict that usually emerge when those that are required for certain responsibility like interest of principal decide to divert the the authority for their own benefits. However,agency conflict can be minimized by allowing transparency and some ways.
It should be noted here that the CSI's CFO engaged in unethical conduct to manipulate the firm's short-term earnings and improve the likelihood of receiving his annual bonus which is the reason behind the conflict because he act on his own interest.
SECOND QUESTION,
Which of the following actions will help ease agency conflicts and better align managers' objectives with the firm's shareholder wealth?
From the explanation of Agency conflict from First question it should be noted that there are some actions that will help to ease agency conflicts and better align managers' objectives with the firm's shareholder wealth such
Payment of the manager a combination of salary and stock options (phased in over several years) that reward him or her for consistently increasing shareholder wealth.
The payment of the stock options to the manager will allow selling of stock at agreed price as well as date.

Bruce Church, Inc. is a company engaged in extensive commercial farming in Arizona and California. A provision of the Arizona Fruit and Vegetable Standardization Act requires that all cantaloupes grown in Arizona "be packed in regular compact arrangement in closed standard containers approved by the supervisor." Arizona, through its agent Pike, issued an order prohibiting Bruce Church from transporting uncrated cantaloupes from its range in Parker, Arizona, to nearby Blythe, California, for packing and processing. It would take many months and $200,000 for Bruce Church to construct a processing plan int Parker. Further, Bruce Church had $700,000 worth of cantaloupes ready for transportation. Bruce Church filed suit in federal district court challenging the constitutionality of the Arizona statutory provision on shipping cantaloupes. The court issued an injunction (essentially saying the statute was not constitutional) against the enforcement of the act on the grounds that it was an undue hardship on interstate commerce. Answer the following questions: 1. What is the Commerce Clause? 2. Will the Arizona regulation withstand Commerce Clause scrutiny? Why or why not?
Answer:
1. What is the Commerce Clause?
The Commerce Clause refers to the power held by Congress to regulate interstate commerce. Individual states can regulate commerce that takes place within their territory, but they cannot regulate trade between entities from their state and entities from other states.
2. Will the Arizona regulation withstand Commerce Clause scrutiny? Why or why not?
This is an actual court case and the US Supreme Court ruled against Arizona's regulation because it interferes with interstate commerce. The cantaloupes that Bruce Church produced were supposed to be sold in California, that means that 2 states are involved. The Commerce Clause applies whenever trade between 2 states are involved. An individual state's regulations cannot result in a burden for businesses engaged in interstate commerce.
X Corporation reported the following data for the month of August: Inventories: Beginning Ending Raw materials $36,000 $24,000 Work in process $23,000 $17,000 Finished goods $37,000 $55,000 Additional information: Budgeted manufacturing overhead cost $672,000 Budgeted direct labor cost $1,680,000 Raw materials purchased $79,000 Manufacturing overhead cost incurred $51,975 Indirect materials included in manufacturing overhead cost incurred $8,000 Manufacturing overhead cost applied to Work in Process using direct labor cost 37800 Job #82 started in August Direct materials used $4,000 Direct labor cost $6,000 Round your answers to the nearest dollar. Fill in the blank without $ or comma or period, e.g., 12345 What was Job# 82's total manufacturing cost in August using normal costing?
Answer:
$12,400
Explanation:
The computation of Job 82's total manufacturing cost in August using normal costing us shown below:-
Overhead rate = Budgeted Overhead ÷ Budgeted Labor cost
= $672,000 ÷ 1,680,000
= 40%
Applied overhead = 6000 × 40%
= 2,400
The Total cost of Job 82 = Direct material + Direct labor + Overhead applied
= $4,000 + $6,000 + $2,400
= $12,400

Using an exponential smoothing model with an alpha value of 0.20, estimate the smoothed value calculated as of the end of 2012. Use the average demand for 2005 through 2007 as your initial forecast for 2008, and then smooth the forecast forward to 2012. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to the nearest whole number.)
Answer:
The forecast for the year 2012 with an alpha value of 0.20 = 366.04.
Explanation:
The first step in order to solve this question/problem is to calculate or determine the Exponentially smoothed forecast for a period of time, t using the values of average demand for 2005 through 2007, that is to say;
Exponentially smoothed forecast for a period of time, t using the values of average demand for 2005 through 2007 = [actual sales in 2005 + actual sales in 2006 + actual sales in 2007]/ 3.
Therefore, Exponentially smoothed forecast for a period of time, t using the values of average demand for 2005 through 2007 =[ 281 + 367 + 409]/3 = 1057/3 = 352.3.
Since we are asked to use the smoothed value calculated as of the end of 2012. Use the average demand for 2005 through 2007 as your initial forecast for 2008, then, we have that for 2008 the forecast = 352.3.
Therefore, the forecast from the year 2009 through to the year 2012 can be calculated as given below;
The forecast for the year 2009 with an alpha value of 0.20 = 0.2 × 467 + [1 - 0.2] × 352.3 = 375.24.
The forecast for the year 2010 with an alpha value of 0.20 = 0.2 × 369 + [1 - 0.2] × 352.3 = 355.64.
The forecast for the year 2011 with an alpha value of 0.20 = 0.2 × 511 + [1 - 0.2] × 352.3 = 384.04.
The forecast for the year 2012 with an alpha value of 0.20 = 0.2 × 421 + [1 - 0.2] × 352.3 = 366.04.

1. (30 points) Please elaborate what will happen to Net Earnings to Sales and Net Earnings to Total Book Assets when you observe these trends. (a) and (b) are separate unrelated circumstances. a) Sales increased by a total of 30% in the prior three years, while Days of Sales in Inventories increased also by 30% in each of these three years. Costs of Goods Sold to Sales remained constant. b) Gross property, plant, and equipment increased by a total of 30% during the prior three years. Operating and administrative expense increased relative to sales by 30% in the prior three years. Sales remained constant. Costs of goods sold to sales remained constant. ANSWER:
Answer:
Impact on Net Earnings to Sales and Net Earnings to Total Book Assets:
a) A company's Net Earnings to Sales and Net Earnings to Total Book Assets will increase due to the 30% increase in sales. This result will be different with an increase by a similar margin in the Cost of Goods Sold.
b) Net Earnings to Sales and Net Earnings to Total Book Assets will decrease by 30% as a result of the increase in Property, Plant, and Equipment, because this increase also increased the operating and administrative expense (depreciation), even though Sales and Cost of Goods Sold remained constant.

Candlewood LLC started business on August 1, and it adopted a calendar tax year. During the year, Candlewood incurred $10,950 in legal fees for drafting the LLC's operating agreement and $5,475 in accounting fees for tax advice of an organizational nature, for a total of $16,425 of organizational costs. Candlewood also incurred $22,000 of preopening advertising expenses and $31,000 of salaries and training costs for new employees before opening for business, for a total of $53,000 of startup costs. The LLC wants to take the largest deduction available for these costs. If required, round any division to six decimal places and use in subsequent computations. Round your final answers to the nearest dollar. How much can Candlewood deduct as organizational expenses
Answer:
$5,317

Calculation of the organizational expenses is as shown below.
Actual expense $53,000 - reduced startup $48,000 = $5,000
This means that Candlewood LLC may deduct
= ($16,425 - $5,000) × 5/180
= $11,425 × 5/180
= $317.4
Therefore, organizational expenses would be;
= $5,000 + $317.361111
= $5,317.361111
= $5,317. Approximated to the nearest dollar.
Candlewood LLC may deduct $5,317 as organizational expenses.

Spaceley’s Sprockets has just developed a new product. George Jetson, the Head of Product Development, feels that the product is a winner, but he also feels it would be an even better product if waited six more months for further development before launching. Unfortunately, Spaceley’s closest competitor, Cogsley Cogs, has a similar product in the development pipeline. George feels that if he launches the product now to get a head start on Cogsley, he has a 50% chance of achieving a high level of sales, a 30% chance of a medium level of sales, and a 20% chance of a low level of sales. If he waits, he has a 30% chance of a high level of sales, and a 70% chance of a medium level of sales, with no chance of a low level of sales. High sales represents 100,000 units, medium sales represents 65,000 units, and low sales represents 10,000 units. If his objective is to maximize his expected number of units sold, what should George do and how many units would he be expected to sell
Answer:
George should wait for six more months for further development before launching.
Total units expected to be sold by this time is 75500 units
Explanation:
when launched early
Spaceley has : 50% of high level sale, 30% chance of medium level sale
20% chance of low level sale
When launched late
Spaceley has : 30% of high level sale, 70% of medium level sale, o% of low level sale
while
High sales = 100000
Medium sale = 65000
low level sale = 10000
A) when launched early
50% * 100000 = 50000
30% * 65000 = 19500
20% * 10000 = 2000
Total sales = 71500 units
B) when launched after 6 months
30% * 100000 = 30000
70% * 65000 = 45500
Total sales = 75500 units
George should wait for six more months for further development before launching.
Total units expected to be sold by this time is 75500 units
