On December 1, year 1, Lester Company issued at 103, four hundred of its 9%, $1,000 bonds. Attached to each bond was one detachable stock warrant entitling the holder to purchase 10 shares of Lester's common stock. On December 1, year 1, the market value of the bonds, without the stock warrants, was 95, and the market value of each stock purchase warrant was $50. The amount of the proceeds from the issuance that should be accounted for as the initial carrying value of the bonds payable would be:______
a. $387,280.
b. $391,400.
c. $400,000.
d. $412,000.
Answer:
Lester Company
The amount of the proceeds from the issuance that should be accounted for as the initial carrying value of the bonds payable would be:______
c. $400,000.
Explanation:
Bonds issued at 103, 9% $1,000
Number of bonds issued = 400
Face value of bonds = $1,000 * 400 = $400,000
Proceeds from Bonds = $1,030 * 400 = $412,000
Premium from bonds issue = $12,000 ($412,000 - 400,000)
Carrying amount = $400,000
$400,000 is the bonds payable at maturity. The $12,000 bonds premium will be amortized with the interest expense. This implies that for the life of the bonds, part of the $12,000 will be deducted from the annual interest expense.

Mark M. Upp has just been fired as the university book store manager for setting prices too low (only 20% above suggested retail). He is considering opening a competing bookstore near the campus, and he has begun an analysis of the situation. There are two possible sites under consideration. One is relatively small, while the other is large. If he opens at Site 1 and demand is good, he will generate a profit of $50,000. If demand is low, he will lose $10,000. If he opens at Site 2 and demand is high he will generate a profit of $80,000, but he will lose $30,000 if demand is low. He also has decided that he will open at one of these sites. He believes that there is a 50% chance that demand will be high. He assigns the following utilities to the different profits:
U = 50,000 = ? U(-10,000) = 0.22
U = 80,000 = 1 U(-30,000) = 0
For what value of utility for $50,000, U(50000), will Mark be indifferent between the two alternatives?
Answer:
The utility of Mark for getting a 50,000 profit should be of 0.78 to make both Site option indifferent.
Explanation:
To be indifferent between the two sites the utility of Site 1 should match the utility of Site 2
Site 2:
weighted Utility of good demand +
weighted Utility of low demand:
50% x 1 + 50% 0 = 0.5
Site 1
50% of Ux + 50% 0.22
This shold match 0.50 to be indifferent
0.5Ux + 0.11 = 0.50
Ux = (0.50 - 0.11) / 0.5 = 0.39/0.50 = 0.78
Marc and Michelle are married and earned salaries this year of $64,000 and $12,000, respectively. In addition to their salaries, they received interest of $350 from municipal bonds and $500 from corporate bonds. Marc and Michelle also paid $2,500 of qualifying moving expenses, and Marc paid alimony to a prior spouse in the amount of $1,500. Marc and Michelle have a 10-year-old son, Matthew, who lived with them throughout the entire year. Thus, Marc and Michelle are allowed to claim a $1,000 child tax credit for Matthew. Marc and Michelle paid $6,000 of expenditures that qualify as itemized deductions and they had a total of $5,500 in federal income taxes withheld from their paychecks during the course of the year.
a) What is Marc and Michelle’s gross income?
b) What is Marc and Michelle’s adjusted gross income?
c) What is the total amount of Marc and Michelle’s deductions from AGI?
d) What is Marc and Michelle’s taxable income?
e) What is Marc and Michelle’s taxes payable or refund due for the year? (Use the tax rate schedules.)
f) Complete the first two pages of Marc and Michelle’s Form 1040 (use 2015 forms if 2016 forms are unavailable).
Answer:
A) $76500
B) $72500
C) $24750
D) tax refund of $260
Explanation:
A) calculate Marc and Michelle's gross income
Marc salary = $64000
Michelle's salary = $12000
interest from corporate bond = $ 500
Hence gross income = 64000 + 12000 + 500 = $76500
B) Calculate Marc and Michelle's Adjusted gross income
Gross income = $76500
qualifying moving expenditure = $2500
Alimony paid to previous spouse = $1500
adjusted gross income = 76500 - 2500 - 1500 = $72500
C) Calculate the total amount of Marc and Michelle's deductions from AGI
Standard deduction = $12600
itemized deduction = $6000
personal and dependency allowance = $12150
To calculate the Deductions from AGI we have to add the personal and dependency allowance to the standard deduction ( higher value between standard deduction and itemized deduction )
= 12600 + 12150 = $24750
D ) calculate Marc and Michelle's taxable income
Adjusted gross income = $72500
deduction from itemized deduction = $24750
taxable income = 72500 - 24750 = $47750
E) Determine if Marc and Michelle's taxes payable or refund due for the year
Tax rate schedules :
between $18451 to $79000 : tax rate = $1845 + 15% of income over $18450
Taxable income = $47750
Tax liability = 1845 + (47750 - 18450) * 15% = $6240
child tax credit = $1000
prepayment of taxes = $5500
Tax refund = tax liability - child tax - prepayment of taxes
6240 - 1000 - 5500 = $260
hence there will be a tax return of $260
We run a delivery service, and we believe our firm has market risk equally between that of UPS and FedEx. We know the following about these 2 firms:______.
Stock Price per share # shares outstanding Market Value of Debt
UPS $65 0.7 billion $ 5 billion
FedEx $55 250 million $ 3 billion
We also have the following data on the securities of these firms:_______.
Beta E Beta D
UPS 0.8 0
FedEx 1.1 0.1
Assume that our firm has risk-free debt with market value $20 million and equity with market value $450 million. Assume that taxes are not relevant. Please estimate our firm’s equity beta
Answer:
The firm’s equity beta is therefore equal to 0.85.
Explanation:
Note: The data in the question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question with the sorted data.
The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:
The equity beta refers to a beta that considers different levels of debt of a firm. The equity beta is also known as the levered beta or the project beta. The equity beta is therefore different from the asset beta.
Asset beta refers to a beta does not consider debt and assume that the firm uses only equity financing. Asset beta is known as unlevered beta.
The Firm’s equity can be calculated using the following steps:
Step 1: Calculation of average unlevered beta of the firm
Unlevered beta = Levered beta / (1 + ((1 - Tax rate) * (Debt / Equity ratio))) ……… (1)
Where for UPS;
Levered beta = Beta E = Beta of Equity = 0.80
Tax rate = 0
Debt = Market value of debt = $5 billion
Equity = Market value of equity = Stock Price per share * Number of shares outstanding = $65 * 0.7 billion = $45.50 billion
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
UPS unlevered beta = 0.80 / (1 + ((1 - 0) * (5 / 45.50))) = 0.720792079207921 = 0.72
Where for FedEx;
Levered beta = Beta E = Beta of Equity = 1.10
Tax rate = 0
Debt = Market value of debt = $3 billion
Equity = Market value of equity = Stock Price per share * Number of shares outstanding = $55 * 250 million = $13.75 billion
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
FedEx unlevered beta = 1.10 / (1 + ((1 - 0) * (3 / 13.75))) = 0.902985074626866 = 0.90
Therefore, firm’s averaged unlevered beta can be calculated as follows:
Firm’s averaged unlevered beta = (UPS unlevered beta + FedEx unlevered beta) / 2 = (0.72 + 0.90) / 2 = 0.81
Step 2: Calculation of firm’s levered beta
Firms’ levered beta = Firm’s averaged unlevered beta * (1 + ((1 - Tax rate) * (Debt / Equity ratio))) …….. (2)
Where;
Firm’s averaged unlevered beta = 0.81
Tax rate = 0
Debt = Market value of risk-free debt = $20 million
Equity = Market value of equity = $450 million
Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:
Firms’ levered beta = 0.81 * (1 + ((1 - 0) * (20 / 450))) = 0.846 = 0.85
Since from the definitions above, the equity beta is also known as the levered beta, the firm’s equity beta is therefore equal to 0.85.

Champion manufactures winter fleece jackets for sale in the United States. Demand for jackets during the season is normally distributed, with a mean of 20,000 and a standard deviation of 10,000. Each jacket sells for $60 and costs $30 to produce. Any leftover jackets at the end of the season are sold for $25 at the year-end clearance sale. Holding jackets until the year-end sale adds another $5 to their cost. A recent recruit has suggested shipping leftover jackets to South America for sale in the winter there rather than running a clearance. Each jacket will fetch a price of $35 in South America, and all jackets sent there are likely to sell. Shipping costs add additional $5 to the cost of any jacket sold in South America, along with the $5 for holding jackets till the end of the season.
Required:
a. Would you recommend the South American option? Support your decision with calculations.
b. How will the South American option affect production and profitability at Champion?
c. On average, how many jackets will Champion ship to South America each season? (Note: you have already calculated this value in order to get the expected profit for the South American option.
Answer:
The question puts
Mean demand to be 20000
Standard deviation to be 10000
Storage cost = 60-30= 30
Excess cost to be 30+5-25 = 10
For shipping to south america
Excess cost = 30+5+5-35 = 5 dollars
A.
It is of more benefits to ship to south america because we have an excess cost of 5 dollars and excess clearance cost of 10 dollars
B.
Production and profitability are high for south america. Please check attachment for the calculations I added
C.

Gina made a down payment on a motorcycle. What incentive did she have for making a down payment?
O A tax break
O A higher loan rate
O A less secure loan
O A reduced time in debt
Because Gina made a down payment on a motorcycle, an incentive that she have for making such down payment is a reduced time in debt.
What do we mean by down payment?Basically, a down payment refers to the cash that the buyer pays upfront in a transaction and other large purchases. These payment are typically a percentage of the purchase price and can range from as little as 3% to as much as 20%
Here, she intends to purchase that motorbike on credit and by making a down-payment, she is reducing the amount she needs to borrow to buy the bike. So, a reduced loan amount means that Gina will require less to repay which implies that the interest to be paid will reduce.

Consider a simple example economy where there are two goods, coconuts and restaurant meals (coconut-based). There are two firms. A coconut producer collects and sells 10 million coconuts at $2.00 each. The firm pays $5 million in wages, $0.5 million in interest on an old loan, and $1.5 million in taxes to the government. We also know that 4 million coconuts are sold to the public for consumption, and 6 million coconuts are sold to the restaurant firm, which uses them to prepare meals. The restaurant sells $30 million in meals. The restaurant pays $4 million in wages and the government $3 million in taxes. The government supplies security and accounting services and employs only labor, and government workers are paid $5.5 million, collected in taxed by the government. Finally, consumers pay $1 million in taxes to the government in addition to the taxes paid by the two firms.
Required:
a. Compute GDP for this simple economy using the product approach.
b. Compute GDP for this simple economy using the expenditure approach.
c. Compute GDP for this simple economy using the income approach.
d. Now, suppose that the coconut producer cannot sell 1 million coconuts during the course of the year. These are collected coconuts that are not sold to the public (assume that sales to the other firm, the restaurant, remain the same).
e. How does this new piece of information affect your calculations in the expenditure approach? Explain.
A) Product Approach
GDP = Value added of all industries
Value added = revenue - intermediate costs
Value added coconut producer = $20,000,000 (it does not have intermediate costs)
Value added restaurant = $30,000,000 - $12,000,000 (cost of coconuts)
= $18,000,000
Value added government = $5,500,000 (collected in taxes, $3 million from the restaurant, $1.5 million from the coconut producer, and $1 million from consumers).
GDP = $20,000,000 + $18,000,000 + $5,500,000
= $43,000,000
B) Expenditure Approach
GDP = Consumption + Investment + Government Spending + Net Exports
Consumption = $8,000,000 in coconuts + $30,000,000 in meals
= $38,000,000
Investment = $0
Government Spending = $5,500,000 in government wages
Net Exports = $0 (it is a closed-economy)
GDP = $38,000,000 + $0 + $5,500,000 + $0
= $43,500,000
C) Income Approach
Wages = $14,500,000
Corporate Profits = $24,000,000
Interest income = $500,000
Taxes = $4,500,000
GDP = $43,500,000
e. How does this new piece of information affect your calculations in the expenditure approach? Explain.
GDP under the expenditure approach, would rise by the value of the unsold coconuts ($1 million) as long as the coconuts were harvested in the given year. This is because inventory produced in the given year, is part of that year's GDP.
If overhead is applied using traditional costing based on direct labor hours, the overhead application rate is:
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Explanation:
If overhead is applied using traditional costing based on direct labor hours, the overhead application rate is:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
For example:
Total estimated overhead= $150,000
Allocation base= direct labor hours
Estimated Total number of direct labor hours= 10,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 150,000/10,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $15 per direct labor hour

A diet is to contain at least 3640 mg vitamin C, 2190 mg Calcium, and 2170 calories every day. Two foods, a dairy-based meal and a vegan option are to fulfill these requirements. Each ounce of the dairy-based meal provides 40 mg vitamin C, 30 mg Calcium, and 10 calories. Each ounce of the vegan option provides 60 mg vitamin C, 30 mg Calcium, and 50 calories. If the dairy-based meal costs $0.21 per ounce and the vegan option costs $0.27 per ounce.
Required:
a. How many ounces of each food should be purchased to minimize costs?
b. What is that minimum cost (per day)?
Answer:
(A) 73 ounces of diary-based meal and 28.8 ounces of the vegan option.
(B) The minimum cost per day is [73 × 0.21] + [28.8 × 0.27] = 15.33 + 7.776 = $23.106
Explanation:
First thing to note is that the dairy-based meal costs less than the vegan option. In otherwords, if you're to minimize cost, you should purchase as many ounces of dairy-based meal as possible. This is the first mindset or step.
What the diet should contain everyday:
3640mg - Vitamin C
2190mg - Calcium
2170 - Calories
DAIRY BASED:
(40 × 91 = 3640), (30 × 73 = 2190), (10 × 217 = 2170)
VEGAN OPTION:
(60 × 60.67 = 3640), (30 × 73 = 2190), (50 × 43.4 = 2170)
Getting 73 ounces of dairy-based meal, you have
(40 × 73), (30 × 73), (10 × 73) = 2920mg, 2190mg, 730 calories.
You have left 720mg of Vitamin C and 1440 calories to obtain from the Vegan Option.
(60 × 12 = 720), (30 × 0 = 0), (50 × 28.8 = 1440)
The highest quantity needed here is 28.8 ounces of calories from the vegan option, hence 28.8 ounces of the vegan meal should be purchased. There will be excesses of Vitamin C and Calcium but that is necessary in order to purchase the stipulated minimum amount of each nutrient.
The minimum cost per day will now be [73 × 0.21] + [28.8 × 0.27] = 15.33 + 7.776 = $23.106

Table 1 shows the financial position of Bank Uno once $ 3375.00 has been deposited. Assume that the required reserve ratio is 5.00 %, that banks do not keep excess reserves, and that all the money loaned out from Bank Uno is deposited into Bank Duo (whose loans go to other banks not shown here). Once the lending and depositing process is complete, what will the accounts look like in Tables 2 and 3? Specify all answers to two decimal places. Table 1.

(d) Bank Uno's loans in Table 2 = $3,206.25
Explanation:
Note: The data in this question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question with the sorted data.
The explanation to the answers is now given as follows:
Also note: See the attached Microsoft Word file for how the accounts will look like in Tables 2 and 3 once the lending and depositing process is complete.
Required reserve ratio refers to the percentage of reserves that the central bank of a country requires banks in the country to keep on hand in case depositors want to withdraw their funds.
The loan given out by a bank is therefore obtained by deducting the required reserve from the total reserve.
Based on the explanation above, we have:
For Table 2, we have:
Deposits in Table 2 = Deposits in Table 1 = $3,375.00
Reserve in Table 2 = Deposits in Table 1 * Required reserve ratio = $3,375.00 * 5% = $168.75
Loans in Table 2 = Deposits in Table 1 - Reserve in Table 2 = $3,375.00 - $168.75 = $3,206.25
For Table 3, we have:
Deposits in Table 3 = Loans in Table 2 = $3,206.25
Reserve in Table 3 = Deposits in Table 3 * Required reserve ratio = $3,206.25 * 5% = $160.31
Loans in Table 3 = Deposits in Table 3 - Reserve in Table 3 = $3,206.25 - $160.31 = $3,045.94
Based on the above calculations, we can now answer the following:
(a) What are Bank Uno's deposits in Table 2? $
Bank Uno's deposits in Table 2 = $3,375.00
(b) What are Bank Uno's reserves in Table 2? $
Bank Uno's reserves in Table 2 = $168.75
(c) What are Bank Duo's loans in Table 3? $
Bank Duo's loans in Table 3 = $3,045.94
(d) What are Bank Uno's loans in Table 2? $
Bank Uno's loans in Table 2 = $3,206.25

Nanjones Company manufactures a line of products distributed nationally through wholesalers. Presented below are planned manufacturing data for the year and actual data for November of the current year. The company applies overhead based on planned machine hours using a predetermined annual rate.
Planning Data
Annual November
Fixed manufacturing overhead $1,200,000 $100,000
Variable manufacturing overhead 2,400,000 220,000
Direct labor hours 48,000 4,000
Machine hours 240,000 20,000
Data for November
Direct labor hours (actual) 4,200
Direct labor hours (plan based on output) 4,000
Machine hours (actual) 21,600
Machine hours (plan based on output) 21,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead $101,200
Variable manufacturing overhead $214,000
The fixed overhead volume variance for November was
a. $1,200 unfavorable.
b. $5,000 favorable.
c. $5,000 unfavorable.
d. $10,000 favorable.
Answer:
Manufacturing overhead volume variance= $1,200 unfavorable
Explanation:
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
Fixed Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,200,000/240,000
Fixed Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $5 per machine hour
Now, to calculate the fixed manufacturing overhead volume variance, we need to use the following formula:
Manufacturing overhead volume variance = Actual Factory Overhead - Budgeted Allowance Based on Standard Hours
Manufacturing overhead volume variance= (101,200) - (5*20,000)
Manufacturing overhead volume variance= $1,200 unfavorable
You want a seat on the board of directors of Red Cow, Inc. The company has 260,000 shares of stock outstanding and the stock sells for $51 per share. There are currently 5 seats up for election. The company uses straight voting. How much will it cost you to guarantee that you will be elected to the board
Answer:
$2,210,051
Explanation:
The computation of the cost that would be guaranteed is shown below:
first find the number of shares controlled which is
= (S x N) ÷ (D + 1) ] + 1
Where,
S = the total number of shares
N = the number of directors required
D = total number of directors i.e. elected
So,
= (260,000 × 1) ÷ (5 + 1) + 1
= 43,334
Now the cost is
= 43,334 × $51
= $2,210,051
Assignment 3 Suggested Length: 750 to 1000 words Ethical Theories to Apply: Golden Rule and Virtue Ethics
1. Task You work in the Ethics Department for ABC Company (ABC). Your department is dedicated to advising its employees about their ethical obligations in the corporate setting. You are an internal consultant who provides advice and most importantly, recommendations for action to employees of the firm. All communications you receive in this capacity are confidential. Luke, an employee of ABC, comes to you with the following scenario and asks for your advice. He wants to fully consider the situation. Your task is to advise and recommend a course of action based on the specified ethical lenses and facts as given. Below are the facts that Luke provides to you. ***** Luke has been asked to work on a project that involves developing land recently purchased by ABC to build an adult entertainment retail store. According to the plan, the land is located on the corner of the neighborhood where Owen, Luke’s brother, lives. Luke knows that as soon as the plans for the store are made public, property values for the surrounding neighborhood will decrease significantly. ABC plans to publicly announce the project one month from today. Luke is concerned about his obligations of confidentiality to his company. However, Luke is also very close to Owen, who recently told Luke that he received an offer to sell his house at an "okay" price given the current real estate market. Owen is considering selling but hasn’t made any final decision yet. He wonders if he might get a better offer a few years from now when the real estate market improves. What is the ethical issue, why is this an issue, and what should Luke do about it?
***** For assignment 3, prepare a memo, setting out your analysis and recommendations, that considers ONLY the following two theories: Golden Rule and Virtue Ethics.
Answer:
My answer is a little long, so you will probably need to summarize it.
The ethical issue here is that you work for a company that is about to open a store that will make the price of your brother's house to plummet. Your brother has the option to sell his house right now, but if you tell him to accept the offer, you will be breaching your employment duties.
Is your duty towards your brother more or less important than the duty towards the company?
We can analyze both possible outcomes:
You do not tell your brother and he does not sell his house. After the store is announced, your brother's house will decrease in value. That means that your brother will lose a lot of money, but you complied with the obligation of confidentiality that you have with your company. The downside is that once your brother knows about it, he will hate you for the rest of his life. And the hatred will probably not be limited to only your brother, most, if not all of your family will be very unpleased and terribly mad at you. Your family will probably wonder why your parents didn't abort you?, or are you adopted?, or do you simply hate humanity? On the other hand, you decide that you value your brother and whole family, and you decide to tell him to accept the offer. You will have breached your confidentiality obligation towards the company, but you will have literally saved your brother's financial situation, and you will have saved any type of relationship that you have with your family. Will the company be hurt by your decision? No, it will not make any difference to them. They are announcing the decision in just a few days, so anything that you tell your brother will not make any difference. Since your brother will try to sell his house, he will keep the information to himself, since telling other people will only ruin any possible sale.If we follow the golden rule: do to others what you would like them to do to you, then obviously we should tell Owen about our company's plans. If we were Owen, that information would be really important for us.
If we follow virtue ethics, then it gets a little bit more complicated. Is telling Owen about the new store a virtuous action? Would a virtuous person do it? To be honest, I'm not really sure what exactly is a virtuous person.
What I understand is that virtue ethics is based on who you are, and not what you really will do. So, the question here would be: Are you a good (or virtuous) brother? Are you a good (or virtuous) employee? In this case, you cannot be a virtuous employee and a virtuous brother at the same time, so it depends on which you value the most. Going back to the possible outcomes, I would prefer to be a virtuous brother in this case.
