On January 1, 2018, Busy Beaver, Inc., signed a $315,000, 5-year note payable to buy a new industrial veneer cutter. Busy Beaver plans to use the machine for 10 years and then sell it for its scrap value of $5,000. Using straight-line depreciation, Depreciation Expense for the year ended December 31, 2018 equals ______.
a. $284,000.
b. $31,500.
c. $283,500.
d. $31,000.
Answer:
Annual depreciation= $31,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchase price= $315,000
Useful life= 10 years
Salvage value= $5,000
To calculate the depreciation expense, we need to use the following formula:
Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)
Annual depreciation= (315,000 - 5,000) / 10
Annual depreciation= 310,000/10
Annual depreciation= $31,000

Why does Sutton draw a distinction between endogenous sunk costs, such as advertising, and other sunk costs, such as capital investments?
Answer:
Advertising cost tends to keep increasing compared to other endogenous sunk cost
Explanation:
Sunk cost are defined as cost that have been incurred and cannot be recovered by a business.
Prospective costs on the other hand are those ones a business anticipates it will incur in the future.
Sutton drew a distinction between advertising and other sunk cost because in a competitive market that companies find themselves advertising cost continues to increase to keep the brand visible compared to others.
Companies increasingly invest more in brand awareness.
Other endogenous sunk cost however tend to be relatively constant.
You invest $650 in security A with a beta of 1.2 and $450 in security B with a beta of 0.7. The beta of this portfolio is _________.
Answer:
Beta of this portfolio = 0.9953
Explanation:
Given:
Investment in security A = $650 beta 1.2
Investment in security B = $450 beta 0.7
Find:
Beta of this portfolio
Computation:
Beta of this portfolio = [650 / (650+450)]1.2 + [450 / (650+450)]0.7

Define the three economic aspects of monopoly and the three economic effects of oligopoly?
Answer:
MONOPOLY
1) Ownership of a Key Resource
A firm that has exclusive control or ownership of a key resource can restrict access to that resource and establish a monopoly. The limited availability of the key resource will make it impossible for new sellers to enter the market. Although this factor is important in economic theory, monopolies rarely ever arise for this reason in reality anymore. Mainly because most resources are available in various regions across the globe.
One famous example of a monopoly that arose because of ownership of a key resource is the diamond market in the twentieth century. During this period, the company De Beers effectively controlled most of the world’s diamond mines, either through direct ownership or exclusive agreements. As a result, De Beers could dominate the market and influence the market price at will.
2) Government Regulation
The government can restrict market entry by law (e.g. through patents or copyright laws), which may result in a monopoly. Governments usually do this to serve the public interest, because these regulations promote innovation as well as research and development (R&D). The idea behind this is that firms can be rewarded for their R&D efforts by getting exclusive rights to sell their product. Without this kind of protection, it would be more reasonable for many firms to let others do the research and just copy their products once they are on the market. However, this would eventually eradicate all innovation and research.
Arguably the most prominent (and controversial) examples of government-regulated monopolies can be found in the pharmaceuticals industry. It often takes more than a decade for companies to develop new drugs. However, if they succeed, the firms can apply for a patent and become the sole seller of the new drug for a set period of time. This monopoly position allows them to make enough profits to make up for high R&D expenditures.
3) Economies of Scale (i.e. Natural Monopoly)
In some industries, a single firm can supply a good or service at a lower cost than two or more firms could. We call this a natural monopoly (because it arises without government intervention). A natural monopoly can arise in industries where firms face high fixed costs but are able to realize significant economies of scale over the relevant range of output. Those circumstances result in decreasing average total costs as output increases, which makes it more difficult for new firms to enter the market.
The market for electricity is a common example of a natural monopoly. Building the infrastructure to supply a city with electricity is extremely expensive. Thus, the market has high barriers to entry. However, connecting an additional house to the power grid is relatively cheap once the infrastructure is in place. As a result, a single firm can supply a whole city at a lower cost than two or more competing companies could.
Explanation:
OLIGOPOLY
Some of the oligopoly effects are discussed as follows:
i. Restriction on output:
Implies that oligopoly results in small output and high prices as compared to other market structures, such as perfect competition.
ii. Price exceeds average costs:Implies that under oligopoly, there are restrictions on entry of new organizations. Thus, organizations charge prices more than the average costs. Therefore, consumers have to pay more in case of oligopoly market.
iii. Lower Efficiency:
Leads to non-optimum levels of output. This is because the output produced under oligopoly depends on the market share held by the organization. Thus, the oligopoly organizations fail to build the optimum scales of economies and achieve optimum output.
iv. Selling Costs:
Refer to high promotional costs. The oligopolists engage in high promotion tasks to take the share of its rivals. Thus, the resources are wasted in form of high selling costs which do not add to the satisfaction of customers.
Apart from aforementioned points, oligopoly shows the poor performance from various other angles. From the point of economic welfare, it fails to satisfy customers since the price charged is very high, even more than average costs. In addition, sometimes oligopolists may face wasteful fluctuations in output as the output is not determined optimally.

in your own idea, are "doing good for others" and "doing well for oneself" conflicting ideas? Which would you choose and why?
Answer:
The "Invisible Hand" orden a sus In his 1776 book The Wealth of Nations, Adam Smith first noted that the operation of a market system creates a curious unity between private interests and social interests. Firms and resource suppliers, seeking to further their own self-interest and operating within the framework of a highly competitive market system, will simultaneously, as though guided by an “invisible hand," promote the public or social interest. For ex- ample, we have seen that in a competitive environment, businesses seek to build new and improved products to increase profits. Those enhanced products increase society's well-being. Businesses also use the least costly combination of resources to produce a specific output because it is in their self-interest to do so. To act otherwi forgo profit or even to risk business failure. But, at the same time, to use scarce resources in the least costly way is clearly in the social interest as well. It "frees up" resources to produce something else that society desires. Self-interest, awakened and guided by the competitive market system, is what in- duces responses appropriate to the changes in society's wants. Businesses seeking to make higher profits and to avoid losses, and resource suppliers pursuing greater mon- etary rewards, negotiate changes in the allocation of resources and end up with the output that society wants. Competition controls or guides self-interest such that self- interest automatically and quite unintentionally furthers the best interest of society The invisible hand ensures that when firms maximize their profits, and resource SP ety's output and and pliers maximize their incomes, these groups also help maximize society income.
The following inventory was available for sale during the year for Dolphin Tools: Beginning inventory 10 units at $120 First purchase 15 units at $165 Second purchase 30 units at $210 Third purchase 20 units at $195 Dolphin Tools has 25 units on hand at the end of the year. What is the dollar amount of inventory at the end of the year according to the first-in, first-out method?a. $6,600.b. $11,900.c. $6,300.d. $7,800.
Answer: $4,950
Explanation:
If the company is using the First In First Out method for Inventory valuation then the earlier inventory is sold off first which would mean that the inventory at year end will be the more recent inventory.
The 25 units at the end of the year will be the most recent units purchased and so will be;
20 units from the third purchase
5 units from the 2nd purchase
Inventory value = (20 * 195) + ( 5 * 210)
= $4,950

Southland Company is preparing a cash budget for August. The company has $18,100 cash at the beginning of August and anticipates $123,000 in cash receipts and $136,700 in cash payments during August. Southland Company wants to maintain a minimum cash balance of $10,000. To maintain the minimum cash balance of $10,000, the company must borrow:A. $0.B. $10,000.C. $6,700.D. $7,000.E. $27,700.
The options provided are incorrect. The correct answer is given below.
Answer:
The company needs to borrow $5600 to maintain the desired ending balance of $10000
Explanation:
To calculate the amount that Southland will need to borrow, we must first calculate the ending cash balance for the month of August. The ending cash balance can be calculated as follows,
Ending balance = Opening balance + Receipts - Payments
Plugging in the values for beginning balance, receipts and payments for the month, we calculate the ending balance to be,
Ending balance = 18100 + 123000 - 136700
Ending balance = $4400
Difference between desired and ending balance = 10000 - 4400 = 5600
So, the company needs to borrow $5600 to maintain the desired ending balance of $10000

Compound interest is usually better than simple interest because it pays interest on the principal and the interest earned in each period. interest on the entire principal rather than the interest in each period. more, as it is matched by an employer’s 401k contribution. more often throughout the year rather than once a year.
Answer:
A) interest on the principal and the interest earned in each period
Interest is the return of an amount over the payment of principal by a lender or payment financial company to a creditor or bondholder at a set rate. It is not to be confused with a fee that the borrower may pay to the creditor or a potential buyer.
The correct option is interest on the principal and the interest earned in each period.
The reason for the correct answer is:
The original investment of a debt or investment is the main attribute to calculate simple interest. Compound interest is calculated by using the principal sum and the curiosity that accumulates on it over time.
Simple interest is easier to compute as compared to compound interest because it is calculated on the principal balance of the loan or bank.
The simple interest is calculated as:
[tex]\text{Simple interest} = P \times R \times T[/tex]
On the other hand, the compound interest is calculated as:
[tex]\text{Compound Interest} = P\times (1+r)^{t} -P[/tex]

The level strategy and the chase strategy are examples of a(an)________ aggregate production strategy.
a) Long term
b) Constant
c) Pure
d) Combined
Answer:
c) Pure
Explanation:
Chase, Level and Mixed are the three type of aggregate production strategy. Both level and chase strategy are pure strategies in terms of operations planning wherein the aggregate resources are matched with that of the capacity to satisfy the production level in its aggregate form, when applied in isolation. The other options of constant, long-term and combined does not hold true because Chase cannot be constant, and level and chase are not mixed to make it a combined one while it could be both long or short term in nature.

Synovec Corporation is expected to pay the following dividends over the next four years: $5.20, $16.20, $21.20, and $3.00. Afterward, the company pledges to maintain a constant 5.5 percent growth rate in dividends forever. If the required return on the stock is 9 percent, what is the current share price?
Answer:
Present value = $92.6899 rounded off to $92.69
Explanation:
Using the dividend discount model, we calculate the price of the stock today. It values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. To calculate the present value of the next four dividends, we will use the following formula,
Present value = D1 / (1+r) + D2 / (1+r)^2 + D3 / (1+r)^3 + D4 / (1+r)^4 +
[(D4 * (1+g) / (r - g)) / (1+r)^4]
Where,
r is the required rate of return g is the constant growth rate in dividends
Present value = 5.2 / (1+0.09) + 16.2 / (1+0.09)^2 + 21.2 / (1+0.09)^3 +
3 / (1+0.09)^4 + [(3 * (1+0.055) / (0.09 - 0.055)) / (1+0.09)^4]
Present value = $92.6899 rounded off to $92.69
