A company purchased a computer system at a cost of $34,000. The estimated useful life is 8 years, and the estimated residual value is $9,000. Assuming the company uses the double-declining-balance method, what is the depreciation expense for the second year
Answer:
Year 2= $4,687.5
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchase price= $34,000
Useful life= 8 years
Salvage value= $9,000
To calculate the depreciation expense under the double-declining-balance, we need to use the following formula:
Annual depreciation= 2*[(book value)/estimated life (years)]
Year 1= [(34,000 - 9,000)/8]*2= $6,250
Year 2= [(25,000 - 6,250)/8]*2= $4,687.5
In Lurnee, it takes 10 resources to produce 1 ton of cocoa and 13.5 resources to produce 1 ton of rice. In South Tyberg, it takes 40 resources to produce 1 ton of cocoa and 20 resources to produce 1 ton of rice. Lurnee has a comparative advantage over South Tyberg in cocoa. This follows the theory of comparative advantage, and we can say that engaging in free trade benefits all countries that participate in it; however, this conclusion stems from which of these inaccurate assumptions?
A. We have assumed that agrarian nations do not specialize in producing particular products.
B. We have assumed the prices of resources and exchange rates in the two countries are dynamic.
C. We have assumed diminishing returns to specialization.
D. We have assumed constant returns to scale.
E. We have assumed there are barriers to the movement of resources from the production of one good to another within the same country.
Answer: We have assumed constant returns to scale.
Explanation:
Comparative advantage simply stated that an economy should produce the goods whereby the said economy has a lower opportunity cost than its counterpart.
Based on the analysis in the question, the inaccurate assumption is that we have assumed constant returns to scale. This means that an increase in the inputs such as capital and labour which are used in producction will also cause an identical increase in output. In reality, this isn't always true.
The board of directors of DDC omitted dividends in 2016 on their $100 par 6% noncumulative preferred stock. In 2017, a $2 preferred dividend was paid. For DDC, 2018 has been a good year, and the board wishes to pay a common dividend. How much must be paid per share on the preferred for 2018 in order to pay a common dividend
Answer:
$6
Explanation:
Calculation for the amount to be paid per share on the preferred for 2018 in order to pay a common dividend.
Using this formula
Common dividend=Omitted dividend *noncumulative preferred stock
Where,
Omitted dividend =$100
Noncumulative preferred stock=6%
Let plug in the formula
Common dividend =$100*6%
Common dividend =$6
Therefore the amount to be paid per share on the preferred for 2018 in order to pay a common dividend will be $6 per share.
On December 1 of Year 1, Jones, a self-employed cash basis taxpayer, took out a loan to use in her business. The loan principal is to be repaid on November 30 of Year 3. Jones prepaid the entire interest of $12,000 on December 1 of Year 1. What amount of interest was deductible on Jones' Year 2 income tax return?
Answer: $6,000
Explanation:
When expenses such as this interest expense are for 12 months or more, the deduction will need to be evenly spread over the period that they apply to. As the loan was to be repaid in 24 months, the interest payment deductions should be evenly spread over 24 months.
= 12,000/24
= $500
That means that for Year 2, the relevant deduction will be for the 12 months in it;
= 500 * 12
= $6,000
On December 1, 20X1, Tigg Mortgage Co. gave Pod Corp. a $200,000, 12% loan. Pod received proceeds of $194,000 after the deduction of a $6,000 nonrefundable loan origination fee. Principal and interest are due in 60 monthly installments of $4,450, beginning January 1, 20X2. The repayments yield an effective interest rate of 12% at a present value of $200,000 and 13.4% at a present value of $194,000. What amount of accrued interest receivable should Tigg include in its December 31, 20X1, balance sheet
Answer:
$2,000
Explanation:
Accrued interests = loan principal x interest rate x time = $200,000 x 12% x 1/12 (1 month) = $2,000
The adjusting journal entry to record accrued interests should be:
December 31, 20x1, accrued interest receivable
Dr Interest receivable 2,000
Cr Interest revenue 2,000
Interest receivable is an asset account with a normal debit balance.
Answer:
$2,000
Explanation:
Present value of loan = $200,000
Interest rate = 12%
Therefore, the accrued interest receivable can be calculated using the simple interest formula :
Where the present value of the loan is the principal amount,
Accrued interest = principal * rate * time
Since the period is between December 1st to 31 st December = 1 month = (1/12) years
Accrued interest = $200,000 * (1/12) * 12%
Accrued interest = $200,000 * 0.083333 * 0.12
Accrued interest = $2000
In what country do the three largest shareholders control, on average, about 60 percent of the shares of a public company?
a. Great Britain
b. Italy
c. United States
d. Canada
Answer:
b. Italy
Explanation:
Even though this % doesn't apply to all corporations, it is still a very small number of shareholders that control corporations (and their board) on average. We can compare this situation to the American normality, where any shareholder that owns 5% or more of a large corporation is considered a major shareholder and must report himself/herself to the SEC as such.
In the US, many of the corporations would be considered closed corporations. The smaller the number of shareholders with large decision power, the less small shareholders can do.

The XYZ Corporation's A-rated convertible debenture is currently selling for 90. If the bond's conversion price is $40, what is the parity price of the stock
Answer:
$36
Explanation:
Step 1
We find the number of shares the bond is convertible into. This means we find the conversion ratio.
Conversion ratio formula =
Par value/ Bond conversion price
Par value = $1,000
Bond conversion price = 25
Conversion ratio = $1,000/25
= 40 shares.
Step 2
The parity price of the stock is calculated as:
Rate of the convertible debenture (in dollars/ Conversion ratio
In the above question, rate of convertible debenture = 90
converting to dollars = 90 × $10
= $900
Conversion ratio = 40 shares
Parity price of stock = $900/40 shares
= $36

What would happen in the market for loanable funds if the government were to decrease the tax on interest income for savers? Group of answer choices Interest rate would be unaffected The effect on the interest rate is uncertain Interest rates would fall Interest rates would rise
Answer:
The interest rate would be unaffected.
Explanation:
Option A, “Interest rate would be unaffected” is correct because, in a market for loanable funds, the government has decreased the tax rate on the amount of interest. At the same time, this will increase the interest-earning of consumers however the interest rate on the money will be unaffected. The intervention made by the government resulted in an increase in interest-earning. Moreover, a reduction in the tax rate will induce people to save more in order to earn more interest.
Consider a situation in which a utility company emits high levels of sulfur dioxide and the company is not liable for the damages its pollution causes. According to the Coase theorem, government action is ________ to achieve an ________ amount of pollution
Answer:
not necessary; efficient.
Explanation:
Consider a situation in which a utility company emits high levels of sulfur dioxide and the company is not liable for the damages its pollution causes. According to the Coase theorem, government action is not necessary to achieve an efficient amount of pollution. Coase theorem was developed in 1960 by a British economist and author named Ronald Coase.
Coase theorem states that when the actions of a party (X) negatively affects or harm another party (Y), then party Y should be able to create an incentive for party X to stop or limit the action creating such harm.
Hence, when transaction cost are low, the two parties are able to bargain and reach a mutual agreement in the presence of an externality such as a pollution.

Daves Inc. recently hired you as a consultant to estimate the company's WACC. You have obtained the following information. (1) The firm's noncallable bonds mature in 20 years, have an 8.00% annual coupon, a par value of $1,000, and a market price of $1,000.00. (2) The company's tax rate is 25%. (3) The risk-free rate is 4.50%, the market risk premium is 5.50%, and the stock's beta is 1.20. (4) The target capital structure consists of 35% debt and the balance is common equity. The firm uses the CAPM to estimate the cost of equity, and it does not expect to issue any new common stock. What is its WACC? Do not round your intermediate calculations.
Answer:
9.315%
Explanation:
The computation of WACC is shown below:-
But before that we need to do the following calculations
PV -$1,000
PMT 80
N 20
FV $1,000
Compute IY 8%
After tax cost of Debt = Before tax cost of debt × (1 - tax rate)
= 8% × (1 - 25%)
= 6%
According to the CAPM,
Cost of Equity =Risk free Rate + (Beta × Market Risk Premium)
= 4.5% + (1.2 × 5.5%)
= 11.10%
Weight of Equity = 100% - 35%
= 65%
WACC = (Weight of Equity × Cost of Equity) + (Weight of debt × Cost of debt)
= (65% × 11.10) + (35% × 6)
= 9.315%
Based on the information given Daves Inc WACC is 9.32%.
First step is to find then YTM using financial calculator
PV= -$1,000
PMT= 80
N=20
FV =$1,000
Hence:
YTM=8%
Second step is to calculate the After tax cost of Debt
After tax cost of Debt = Before tax cost of debt × (1 - tax rate)
After tax cost of Debt = 8% × (1 - 25%)
After tax cost of Debt = 6%
Third step is to calculate the Cost of Equity
Cost of Equity =Risk free Rate + (Beta × Market Risk Premium)
Cost of Equity= 4.5% + (1.2 × 5.5%)
Cost of Equity= 11.10%
Fourth step is to calculate WACC
WACC= (.35 × 6%×)+ [(1-.35)×11.10%]
WACC=(.35×6%)+(.65×11.10%)
WACC=2.1%+7.215%
WACC=9.315%
WACC= 9.32% (Approximately)
Inconclusion Daves Inc WACC is 9.32%.

Which of the following is true of a corporation? Group of answer choices A corporation is owned by partners who have founded the business and have the right to manage it. A corporation does not have a life separate from its owners and its managers. A corporation has the ability to attract capital, more than the limited partnership. A corporation is not a tax-paying entity for federal income tax purposes.
Answer:
A corporation has the ability to attract capital more than the limited partnership
Explanation:
Corporation is defined as a group of people or company that come together to operate a business as a single entity with the approval of the government through incorporation.
Being a legal entity on its own , ownership is separated from the owners as the business itself can be held legally liable and it also pay income tax on the profits.
One of the advantages of corporation over the other forms of business is the ability to attract capital through issuing of share stocks , which form the basis of the size of ownership of each member.
