Answer:
True or False Statements about the conceptual framework:
(a) False: The fundamental qualitative characteristics that make accounting information useful are relevance and faithful representation, which suggest materiality and completeness respectively.
(b) False: Relevant information must also be material in a financial statement user's decision, in addition to having predictive and confirmatory values.
(c) False: It is information that is relevant that is characterized as having predictive or confirmatory value, and not information that shows faithful representation.
(d) False: Comparability also refers to comparisons of a firm over time (which is appropriately described as consistency). This is in addition to the similar reporting of information by different companies.
(e) False: Enhancing characteristics do not relate only to faithful representation but also to relevance.
(f) True.
Explanation:
Faithful representation implies completeness. Relevance means that the disclosure will attract important consideration and is material to the matter. Therefore, users of financial reports base their decisions on relevant information and not irrelevant details.

When 24,000 units are produced, variable costs are $12.00 per unit. Therefore, when 18,000 units are produced ________. Group of answer choices variable unit costs will increase to $16.00 per unit variable costs will remain at $12.00 per unit variable costs will total $288,000 variable unit costs will decrease to $9.00 per unit
Answer: variable costs will remain at $12.00 per unit
Explanation:
Variable costs refers to the costs that change when there's a change in the quantity of the good that's produced.
Since when 24,000 units are produced, the variable costs are $12.00 per unit. It should be noted that even when 18,000 units are produced, the variable cost will still remain $12.00 per unit.
A company purchased $3,300 worth of merchandise. Transportation costs were an additional $290. The company returned $230 worth of merchandise and then paid the invoice within the 3% cash discount period. The total cost of this merchandise is:
Answer:
the total cost of the merchandise is $3,267.90
Explanation:
The computation of the total cost of this merchandise is shown below;
Purchase $3,300
Less Purchase return -$230
Purchase less return $3,070
Less: discount at 3% on $3,070 -$92.10
Net purchase cost $2,977.90
Add: transportation $290
Total cost $3,267.90
hence, the total cost of the merchandise is $3,267.90
Within Year, Inc. has bonds outstanding with a $1,000 par value and a maturity of 39 years. The bonds have an annual coupon rate of 8.0% with semi-annual coupon payments. You would expect a quoted annual return of 9.0% if you purchased these bonds. What are the bonds worth to you
Answer:
$892.48
Explanation:
Time = 39 years*2 = 78 periods
Coupon rate = 8%/2 = 4%
Coupon payment = 0.04*1,000 = $40
Annual return = 9%/2 = 4.5%
FV= 1,000, PMT= 40, N= 78, I/Y= 4.5
Worth of bond = PV(Fv, Pmt, N, I/Y)
Worth of bond = PV(1000, 40, 78, 4.5%)
Worth of bond = $892.48
Banana Electric is a public company with the following details: Risk free rate 2.0% MRP 5.0% Observed Beta 1.0 Price per share $10.00 Shares outstanding 1,000.0 Debt (market value) 200.0 Cash 1,500.0 Cost of debt 2.0% Tax rate 0.0% Question: Calculate the weighted average cost of capital.
Answer:
6.90 %
Explanation:
The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is the cost of the sources of finance pooled together.
WACC = Cost of equity x Weight of Equity + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt
where,
Cost of equity = Return from risk free security + Beta x Market Premium
= 2.0% + 1.0 x 5.0%
= 7.0 %
After tax cost of debt = Interest x ( 1 - tax rate)
= 2.0%
Weight of Equity = $10,000 / ($200.0 + $10,000) = 98 %
Weight of Debt = $200.0 / ($200.0 + $10,000) = 1.96 %
therefore,
WACC = 7.0 % x 0.98 + 2.0% x 0.02
= 6.90 %
thus,
The weighted average cost of capital is 6.90 %.
For the first time in two years, Big G (the cereal division of General Mills) raised cereal prices by 4 percent. If, as a result of this price increase, the volume of all cereal sold by Big G changed by -2 percent, what can you infer about the own price elasticity of demand for Big G cereal
Answer:
the coefficient of elasticity is 0.5. Thus, demand is inelastic.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.
Price elasticity = 2/4 = 0.5
Because demand is less than1, big g has an inelastic demand.
A liquidity trap is a situation in which: _________
a. using expansionary monetary policy is not effective because, the nominal interest rate is almost zero.
b. lenders are trapped by large loans with declining rates of return. using expansionary monetary policy is not effective, because the real interest rate is negative.
c. aggregate demand falls, because consumers do not have enough liquidity to consume.
d. using expansionary fiscal policy is not effective because, the budget is in a deficit.
In monetary policy, reference to a zero bound on interest rates means that the central bank can no longer reduce the interest rate to encourage economic growth. As the interest rate approached the zero bound, the effectiveness of monetary policy as a tool was assumed to be reduced.

You can determine a company’s cash situation by analyzing the cash flow statement. The cash flow statement also helps determine whether the company (1) is generating enough cash from its operations to make new investments and pay dividends or (2) will need to generate cash by issuing new debt or selling its assets. A firm has $100 million in revenues. Does that mean it has generated a cash flow of $100 million?
Answer:
A firm that has $100 million in revenues does not mean that the firm has generated a cash flow of $100 million.
Explanation:
The revenue could be on account, in which case, the firm has literally not generated any cash flow, but decreased the cash flow instead. To increase the cash flow by $100 million as a result of revenue, this particular firm needs to collect the amount from its customers in cash. Cash flow is generated when cash is received and not when services or goods are sold.

If interest is 6%, what are your monthly payments
Answer: $309.32
Explanation:
The amount that you are to find is an annuity figure because it will be a constant payment. The present value of this annuity is $16,000.
As it is pad monthly, convert time and rate to monthly figures:
5 years = 5 * 12 = 60 months
6% = 6/12 = 0.5%
Present value of annuity = Annuity * ( 1 - (1 + r) ^ -n) / r
16,000 = Annuity * ( 1 - (1 + 0.5%)⁻⁶⁰) / 0.5%
16,000 = Annuity * 51.72556
Annuity = 16,000 / 51.72556
= $309.32
You must prepare a return on investment analysis for the regional manager of Fast & Great Burgers. This growing chain is trying to decide which outlet of two alternatives to open. The first location (A) requires a $500,000 investment and is expected to yield annual net income of $80,000. The second location (B) requires a $200,000 investment and is expected to yield annual net income of $44,000. Compute the return on investment for each Fast & Great Burgers alternative. Using return on investment as your only criterion, which location (A or B) should the company open? (The chain currently generates an 22% return on total assets.)
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the return on investment is shown below:
For location A, it is
= $80,000 ÷ $500,000
= 16%
And, for location B it is
= $44,000 ÷ $200,000
= 23%
On the basis of the return on investment, the company should prefer for location B as it contains high return on investment
Therefore the same is to be considered

Suppose you've just inherited $10,000 from a relative. You're trying to decide whether to put the $10,000 in a non-interest-bearing account so that you can use it whenever you want (that is, hold it as money) or to use it to buy a U.S. Treasury bond.
The opportunity cost of holding the inheritance as money depends on the interest rate on the bond.
For each of the interest rates in the following table, compute the opportunity cost of holding the $10,000 as money.
Interest Rate on Government Bond (Percent) Opportunity Cost (Dollars per year)
8 _____ (10,000.00 / 800.00 / 0.08 / 8.00 / 125,000.00)
10 _____ (10,000.00 / 10.00 / 100,000.00 / 1,000.00 / 0.10)
What does the previous analysis suggest about for money?
a. The quantity of money demanded decreases as the interest rate rises.
b. The quantity of money demanded increases as the interest rate rises.
c. The supply of money is independent of interest rate.
Answer:
A. $800
B. $1,000
C. a. The quantity of money demanded decreases as the interest rate rises
Explanation:
A. Computation for the opportunity cost of holding the $10,000 as money if Interest Rate is 8%
Opportunity Cost for 8% interest rate=$8%*$10,000
Opportunity Cost for 8% interest rate= $800
Therefore the opportunity cost of holding the $10,000 as money if Interest Rate is 8% will be $800
B. Computation for the opportunity cost of holding the $10,000 as money if Interest Rate is 10%
Opportunity Cost for 10% interest rate =10%*$10,000
Opportunity Cost for 10% interest rate = $1,000
Therefore the opportunity cost of holding the $10,000 as money if Interest Rate is 10% will be $1,000
C. Based on the information given the previous analysis suggest about for money: THE QUANTITY OF MONEY DEMANDED DECREASES AS THE INTEREST RATE RISES.

Answer:
A bank currently has $100,000 in checkable deposits and $15,000 in actual reserves. If the reserve ratio is 20 percent, the bank has __$80,000__ in money-creating potential. If the reserve ratio is 14 percent, the bank has ___$86,000__ in money-creating potential.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Checkable deposits = $100,000
Actual reserves = $15,000
Required reserves = $20,000 ($100,000 * 20%)
Excess reserves = -$5,000 ($15,000 - $20,000)
Money-creating potential = $80,000 ($100,000 - $20,000)
Total amount of money the bank can create = $500,000 ($100,000/20%)
b) Checkable deposits = $100,000
Actual reserves = $15,000
Required reserves = $14,000 ($100,000 * 14%)
Excess reserves = $1,000 ($15,000 - $14,000)
Money-creating potential = $86,000 ($100,000 - $14,000)
Total amount of money the bank can create = $714,286 ($100,000/14%)
Carla Vista Company purchases Sandhill Company for $2470000 cash on January 1, 2021. The book value of Sandhill Company’s net assets, as reflected on its December 31, 2020 balance sheet is $1923000. An analysis by Carla Vista on December 31, 2020 indicates that the fair value of Sandhill’s tangible assets exceeded the book value by $190500, and the fair value of identifiable intangible assets exceeded book value by $142500. How much goodwill should be recognized by Carla Vista Company when recording the purchase of Sandhill Company?
Answer: $214000
Explanation:
The amount of goodwill that should be recognized by Carla Vista Company when recording the purchase of Sandhill Company will go thus:
Book value of net assets = $1923000
Add: Excess fair value of tangible asset = $190500
Add: Excess fair value of intangible assets = $142500
Fair value of net assets = $1923000 + $190500 + $142500 = $2256000
Therefore, Goodwill will be:
=Cash paid for purchase - Fair value of net assets
= $2470000 - $2256000
= $214000

In 1 to 2 paragraphs, analyze how a person's ethics or values might affect his performance on the job
Answer:
In simple words, Individual workers' ethical convictions have an impact on team and department productivity as well as individual achievement. Being an ethical worker allows you to be a stronger team participant constantly contributing positively in group situations and just never impeding collective success.
Even though all individuals are important in and of themselves, ethical individuals can be more monetarily useful to their companies as well as more respected by their colleagues and competitors. Reflecting on workplace ethics may help you become a better employee, and it's a good thing to begin if you want to do the right thing all of the time.
Answer:
How can poor ethics devalue you as an asset on the team? Well, if you have poor moral standards and beliefs and what not, people can somewhat easily identify your personality as a negative trait. However if you're a good person with good values and spot on ethics, people will quickly realize that you're a good asset to have on the team.
Your energy, work ethic, and values also determine how good or bad your work ethic is.

In cost-volume-profit analysis, the unit contribution margin is: Group of answer choices Sales price per unit less unit total cost per unit. Sales price per unit less unit fixed cost per unit. Sales price per unit less total variable cost per unit. )Sales price per unit less cost of goods sold per unit. The same as the contribution margin ratio.
Answer: Sales price per unit less total variable cost per unit.
Explanation:
Cost-volume-profit analysis works by dividing the expenses faced by a business in the production and/ or selling of goods into fixed and variable costs.
To calculate the contribution margin in such a scenario, the Total variable cost incurred per unit is deducted from the sales price per unit. From this figure, the fixed cost can then be subtracted to find the operating income per unit.
If one wants to find the breakeven volume, you can divide the Fixed assets by the Contribution margin.

= ($66,000 - $26,400) × 40%
= $15,840
Now the accumulated depreciation is
= $26,400 + $15,840
= $42,240

Julius builds dining chairs that he sells for $200 a chair. His fixed costs are $1,000 (for workshop equipment). Each chair costs him $50 in materials to produce plus an extra $25 for each previous chair made that day, which reflects Julius's increasing exhaustion. (Thus, the first chair cost $50, the second costs $75, the third cost $100, etc.) Assume time requirements in producing a chair are not a factor. How many chairs should Julius produce each day?
