7. If net sales decrease and cost of goods sold increases, the gross profit percentage
O A. decreases.
O B. will change based upon the change in total assets.
OC. increases.
D. remains the same.
Answer:
A. decreases.
Explanation:
When provided with the sales figure and the costs of golds sold (COGS), the calculation of gross profit will be the sales revenue minus the cost of goods sold.
I.e., Sale revenue - COGS = gross profit.
IF sales revenue is high and the cost of goods is low, a business will have a gross profit. The business will make losses if the cost of good s sold is greater than sales.
If sales revenue reduces and COGS increases, the gross profit percentage will decrease.

You bought a stock three months ago for $51.27 per share. The stock paid no dividends. The current share price is $55.36. What is the APR and EAR of your investment? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
APR= 23.91%
EAR= 8%
Explanation:
A stock was bought at $51.27 three months ago
The current share price is $55.36
Therefore the APR of the investment can be calculated as follows
= 55.36-51.27/51.27
= 4.09/51.27
= 0.0797
= 7.97%
APR= 3×7.97
= 23.91%
EAR= (1+0.079/3)^3-1
= 1+0.0263^3-1
= 1.026^3-1
= 0.08×100
= 8%
A trucking company sold its fleet of trucks for $55,200. The trucks originally cost $1,416,000 and had Accumulated Depreciation of $1,271,000 recorded through the date of disposal. What gain or loss did the trucking company record when it sold the fleet of trucks?A. Loss of $55,600.
B. Gain of $55,600.
C. Gain of $105,400.
D. Loss of $105,400.
Answer:
the loss at the time of sale is $89,800
Explanation:
The computation of the gain or loss at the time of sale is shown below:
Written down value of trucks at the sale date is
= Cost - Accumulated Depreciation
= $1,416,000 - $1,271,000
= $145,000
And, the sale value is $55,200
So, the loss would be
= $145,000 - $55,200
= $89,800
This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options
hence, the loss at the time of sale is $89,800

C. Dr Loan Receivables 50,000
Cr Cash 50,000
D. Dr Interest Receivables 750
Cr Interest Income 750
2. $625
Explanation:
Answer and Explanation:
1. Preparation of journal entries
a. In a situation where A customer made deposits of the amount of $50,000 in WaMu savings account on 1/1/2006 the Journal entry will be:
Dr Cash 50,000
Cr Customers Saving Account 50,000
(Being to record the deposit from customers)
b. In a situation where WaMu pays a 1% as annual interest on the deposit on 3/31/06 the journal entry will be:
Dr Interest Expense 125
(50,000*1%*3/12)
Cr Cash 125
(Being to record the payment of interest Expense)
c. In a situation where WaMu lends out the
amount of $50,000 to another customer the Journal entry will be:
Dr Loan Receivables 50,000
Cr Cash 50,000
(Being to record the receivable lent to customers)
d. In a situation where WaMu accrues interest on this date 3/31/06 the journal entry will be:
Dr Interest Receivables 750
(50,000*6%*3/12)
Cr Interest Income 750
(Being to record the interest accrued)
2. Calculation for How much net interest income (profit) did WaMu earn in the first quarter
First step is to calculate the Net Interest Rate
Interest Rate on Receivables 6%
Less Interest Rate on Payable 1%
Net Interest Rate 5%
Second Step will be to calculate the Annual Net Interest
Using this formula
Annual Net Interest=Principal *Net Interest Rate
Let plug in the formula
Annual Net Interest=50,000*5%
Annual Net Interest= 2,500
Last step is to calculate the first quarter net interest income
Using this formula
First quarter net interest income=Time*Annual Net Interest
Let plug in the formula
First quarter net interest income= 3/12*2,500
First quarter net interest income= $625
Therefore the First quarter net interest income will be $625

A. Inventory-related selling costs.
B. Inventory inspection costs.
C. Inventory preparation costs.
D. Freight charges incurred to bring inventory to the warehouse.
Answer:
A. Inventory-related selling costs
Explanation:
Cost of goods sold is the carrying value of a good produced by a company. It involves all the costs that were incurred by a business in transporting and processing the product before it is ready for sales.
This includes inspection costs, inventory preparation costs, and freight charges.
However costs related to sales are not part of cost of goods sold. It does not add to the cost of producing the good.
Rather this is classified as general and administrative expenses

Assume Venture Healthcare sold bonds that have a ten-year maturity, a 12 percent coupon rate with annual payments, and a $1,000 par value Suppose that two years after the bonds were issued, the required interest rate fell to 7 percent. What would be the bond's value? a. Suppose that two years after the bonds were issued, the required interest rate rose to 13 percent What would be the bond's value? b. What would be the value of the bonds three years after issue in each scenario above, assuming that interest rates stayed steady at either 7 percent or 13 percent?
Answer:
market rate falls to 7%
market price of bonds after 2 years:
PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.07⁸ = $582.01
PV of coupon payments = $120 x 5.9713 (PV annuity factor, 7%, 8 periods) = $716.56
market price = $1,298.57
market price of bonds after 3 years:
PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.07⁷ = $622.75
PV of coupon payments = $120 x 5.3893 (PV annuity factor, 7%, 7 periods) = $646.72
market price = $1,269.47
market rate increases to 13%
market price of bonds after 2 years:
PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.13⁸ = $376.16
PV of coupon payments = $120 x 4.7988 (PV annuity factor, 13%, 8 periods) = $575.86
market price = $952.02
market price of bonds after 3 years:
PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.13⁷ = $425.06
PV of coupon payments = $120 x 4.4226 (PV annuity factor, 13%, 7 periods) = $530.71
market price = $955.77

Sea Company reports the following information regarding its production costs:
Units produced 42,000 units
Direct labor $35 per unit
Direct materials $28 per unit
Variable overhead $17 per unit
Fixed overhead $105,000 in total
Compute the product cost per unit under absorption costing.
a. $28.00
b. $82.50
c. $80.00
d. $63.00
e. $35.00
Answer:
b. $82.50

The computation of the product cost per unit under absorption costing is shown below:
= Direct labor + Direct materials + variable overhead per unit + (Total fixed overhead ÷ Units produced)
= $35 + $28 + $17 + ($105,000 ÷ 42,000)
= $35 + $28 + $17 + $2.5
= $82.50 per unit
Hence, the product cost per unit under absorption costing is $82.50 per unit
Therefore the correct option is b. $82.50
It is always more profitable to operate a full flight at a lower cost per ticket than a partially full flight at a higher price.
a. True
b. False
Answer: False
Explanation:
It is not always more profitable to operate a full flight at a lower cost per ticket because this depends on the unique situation in question. If the tickets are so low that even with the amount of people in the airplane the company is unable to recuperate its cost, then the condition does not hold.
Meanwhile sometimes the partially full price might see the prices being paid would offset the costs of the flight which would bring profits to the company. It therefore depends on the unique situation.

Together, Coca-Cola and Pepsi account for approximately ________ percent of the soft drink market.
a. 35
b. 45
c. 55
d. 65
e. 75
Answer:
e. 75
Explanation:
Not sure what year this question is referring to but as of 2019 Coca-Cola and Pepsi account for approximately 85 percent of the soft drink market. They have controlled the vast majority of this market since the 70's when Pepsi started making waves in the soft drink market. Effectively making the market into an oligopolistic market. Both of which continue to grow steadily as the year's pass. Therefore, for this question, I would put a 75% market control since 85% is not available.

Which area is not protected by most homeowners insurance?
The home
Your view
Loss of use
Personal property
Homeowners insurance typically covers the home itself, personal property, and loss of use. But it does not cover the view from the home. So, the correct option is "Your view".
The view from a domestic isn't secured by Homeowners insurance since it isn't seen as a physical asset that can be insured.
The cost of repairs or substitution will not be secured by Homeowner's protections, if the house is harmed or destroyed by a secured event, such as a fire or surge. According to the perspective, they seem to have been able to get supplemental protections, but usually as a rule not secured by a conventional homeowner's security policy.
To understand what is and isn't covered, it is vital to carefully examine the Homeowner's insurance policy.

Troll Island is a small island nation that recently experienced an autonomous change in aggregate expenditures (AE). AE increased by 4 billion, and the marginal propensity to consume on Troll Island is equal to 0.7. What is the change in Troll Island's real GDP after the increase in AE?
Answer:
Change in real GDP = $13,333,332,000
Explanation:
MPC = 0.7
Change in real GDP = Change in autonomous spending * Autonomous spending multiplier
Change in real GDP = $4 billion * 1 / (1 - MPC)
Change in real GDP = $4 billion * 1 / 1 - 0.7
Change in real GDP = $4 billion * 3.33333
Change in real GDP = $13,333,332,000
Thus, the real GDP will rise by $13.33 billion
The following data pertains to Michalko Corp. Assuming that the risk-free rate is 4.2% and the market risk premium is 6.2%, calculate Michalko's weighted-average cost of capital.
Michalko Corp.
Total Assets $14,680
Interest-Bearing Debt $19,100
Average borrowing rate for debt 11%
Common Equity:
Book Value $5,120
Market Value $25,700
Marginal Income Tax Rate 40%
Market Equity Beta 1.25
Answer:
Michalko's weighted-average cost of capital is 9.65 %.
Explanation:
Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is the return that is required by providers of Long term sources of finance.
WACC = Ke x (E/V) + Kp x (P/V) + Kd x (D/V)
Therefore,
Ke = Cost of Equity
= Return on Risk free Security + Beta x (Return on Market Portfolio - Return on Risk free Security)
= 4.2% + 1.25 × 6.2%
= 11.95 %
E/V = Market Weight of Equity
= $25,700/ ($25,700 + $19,100)
= 0.57
Kd = Cost of Debt
= Market Interest x ( 1 - tax rate)
= 11% × (1 - 0.40)
= 6.60 %
D/V = Market Weight of Debt
= $19,100/($25,700 + $19,100)
= 0.43
Thus,
WACC = Ke x (E/V) + Kd x (D/V)
= 11.95 % × 0.57 + 6.60 % × 0.43
= 9.65 %

A survey of small businesses with Web sites found that the average amount spent on a site was $11,500 per year (Fortune, March 5, 2001). Given a sample of 60 businesses and a population standard deviation of $4000, what is the margin of error (o decimals)? Use 95% confidence. What sample size would you recommend if the study required a margin of error of $500 (0 decimals)?
Answer: Margin of error 1012.144.
I would recommend a sample size of 246.
Explanation:
Given data:
Mean= M = $11,500
Standard deviation =s = $4,000
sample size=n= 60
s x = standard error of mean
=s / square root of n= 516.4 = ( 4000 / square root of 60)
Confidence level= 95%
Therefore, Significance level= a (alpha) = 5% = 1- 0.95
No of trails= 2
This is so because it’s a 2 tailed test because we need to find the margin of error.
Since sample size= 60 >= 30
we will use normal distribution
Z at the 0.05 level of significance 2 tailed test = 1.96
Margin of error =z*s x
= 1.96*516.4
= 1012.144.
if the study requires us to assume a margin of error of $500, we will then need to increase the sample size
•Therefore,
Standard deviation =s = $4,000
confidence interval= 95%
Z corresponding to 95% and two tailed test is = 1.96
We have to ensure that Z* s x < $500
or s x < =500/Z
= 500/1.96
= or s x < 255.102041
But
s x=standard error of mean=s / square root of n
s = 4000
or n=(s ^2)/(s x^2)
= 4000^2/255.102041^2
= 246.
Therefore, the sample size should be increased to 246.
