• What are the advantages and disadvantages of owning versus outsourcing for each of these components (staff, computer servers, software licensing, and data storage)?
Answer:
Explanation below
Explanation:
Outsourcing simply involves the act of contracting our certain business activities and processes to third-party providers.
Staff
When you outsource your staff, you can be able to save cots and use the freed capital for other things but the disadvantage would certainly be around the issue of confidentiality of business information.
When you outsource computer servers, software licensing, and data storage, you would gain access to world-class capabilities because the third-party providers would likely provide them to meet their customers.
There would also be shared risks as part of the benefits. The disadvantages could include loss of control. People who discourage outsourcing of these functions are of the opinion that third-party vendor cannot be able to match the level of responsiveness and levels of services that could be offered by an in-house team

berkshire hathaway a corporation, owns Goldman Sachs preferred stock with a 12 dividend yield. What is Berthshire Hathaway's after-tax dividend yield on this preferred stock if their marginal tax rate is
Answer: 11.2%
Explanation:
Here is the completed question:
berkshire hathaway a corporation, owns Goldman Sachs preferred stock with a 12 dividend yield. What is Berthshire Hathaway's after-tax dividend yield on this preferred stock if their marginal tax rate is 21%?
The dividend yield that's not subject to tax will be:
= 12% × 70%
= 0.12 × 0.7
= 0.084
The dividend yield that's subject to tax will be:
= 12% × 30% × (1 - 21%)
= 0.12 × 0.3 × 0.79
= 0.02844
Berthshire Hathaway's after-tax dividend yield will now be:
= 0.084 - 0.02844
= 0.11244
= 11.2%

If the cross-price elasticity of demand between Good A and Good B is 3, the price of Good B increases, and the price elasticity of demand for Good B is inelastic, we can expect to see a(n) ________ change in the quantity demanded for Good A. Group of answer choices
Answer:
INCREASE
There are no options available, but since the cross price elasticity of demand is positive, that means that goods A and B are substitute products. An increase in the price of good B will increase the quantity demanded for good A. If the cross price elasticity had been negative, then they would be complement goods, and an increase in the price of one of them would decrease the quantity demanded of both.
Larner Corporation is a diversified manufacturer of industrial goods. The company's activity-based costing system contains the following six activity cost pools and activity rates:
Activity Cost Pool Activity Rates
Labor-related $5.00 per direct labor-hour
Machine-related $10.00 per machine-hour
Machine setups $30.00 per setup
Production orders $200.00 per order
Shipments $140.00 per shipment
General factory $10.00 per direct labor-hour
Cost and activity data have been supplied for the following products:
J78 B52
Direct materials cost per unit $5.50 $20.00
Direct labor cost per unit $4.25 $7.00
Number of units produced per year 2,000 200
Total Expected Activity
J78 B52
Direct labor-hours 1,500 50
Machine-hours 2,600 30
Machine setups 6 1
Production orders 8 1
Shipments 8 1
Required:
Compute the unit product cost of each product listed above.
Answer:
J78= $35.45
B52= $34.2
Explanation:
First, we need to allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
J78:
Labor-related= 5*1,500= 7,500
Machine-related= 10*2,600= 26,000
Machine setups= 30*6= 180
Production orders= 200*8= 1,600
Shipments= 140*8= 1,120
General factory= 10*1,500= 15,000
Total allocated overhead= $51,400
Unitary allocated overhead= 51,400/2,000= $25.7
B52:
Labor-related= 5*50= 250
Machine-related= 10*30= 300
Machine setups= 30*1= 30
Production orders= 200*1= 200
Shipments= 140*1= 140
General factory= 10*50= 500
Total allocated overhead= $1,420
Unitary allocated overhead= 1,420/200= $7.1
Finally, the unitary cost:
J78= 5.5 + 4.2 + 25.7= $35.45
B52= 20 + 7 + 7.2= $34.2
On June 30, 2021, Georgia-Atlantic, Inc. leased warehouse equipment from IC Leasing Corporation. The lease agreement calls for Georgia-Atlantic to make semiannual lease payments of $562,907 over a three-year lease term, payable each June 30 and December 31, with the first payment at June 30, 2021. Georgia-Atlantic's incremental borrowing rate is 10%, the same rate IC uses to calculate lease payment amounts. Amortization is recorded on a straight-line basis at the end of each fiscal year. The fair value of the equipment is $3 million.
Required:
a. Determine the present value of the lease payments at June 30, 2021 that Georgia-Atlantic uses to record the right-of-use asset and lease liability.
b. What pretax amounts related to the lease would Georgia-Atlantic report in its balance sheet at December 31, 2021
Answer:
1. $3,000,000
2. Liability $1,996,041
Asset$2,500,000
Explanation:
1. Calculation to Determine the present value of the lease payments at June 30, 2021
Present value of lease payments will be calculated as : $562,907 × 5.32948
(Present value of an annuity due of $1:
n = 6, i = 5% is 5.32948)
Present value of lease payments = $3,000,000
Therefore the Present value of lease payments will be $3,000,000
2. Calculation to Determine the pretax amounts related to the lease that Georgia-Atlantic would report in its balance sheet at December 31, 2021
Liability at December 31, 2021
Initial balance, June 30, 2021 3,000,000
June 30, 2021 Reduction(562,907)
Dec. 31, 2021 reduction (441052)
[562,907-(3,000,000-562,907)*5%]
December 31, 2021 NET LIABILITY $1,996,041
ASSETS at December 31, 2021
Initial balance, June 30, 2021 3,000,000
Accumulated depreciation at Dec. 31, 2021 (500,000)
(3000000/3*1/2)
December 31, 2021 ASSETS $2,500,000
Therefore the pretax amounts related to the lease that Georgia-Atlantic would report in its balance sheet at December 31, 2021 will be : Liability $1,996,041
Asset$2,500,000
A machine was purchased for $35,500, having a useful life of 10 years, and a residual value of $6,000. Compute the annual depreciation expense using the straight-line method.
Answer:
Annual depreciation= $2,950
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
A machine was purchased for $35,500, having a useful life of 10 years, and a residual value of $6,000.
To calculate the depreciation expense under the straight-line method, we need to use the following formula:
Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)
Annual depreciation= (35,500 - 6,000) / 10
Annual depreciation= $2,950
The premium on a three-year insurance policy expiring on December 31, 20x11, was paid in total on January 1, 20x9. The original payment was initially debited to a prepaid asset account. The appropriate journal entry has been recorded on December 31, 20x9. The balance in the prepaid asset account on December 31, 20x9 should be Select one: a. The same as the original payment b. The same as it would have been if the original payment had been debited initially to an expense account c. Higher than if the original payment had been debited initially to an expense account d. Zero Check
Answer:
b. The same as it would have been if the original payment had been debited initially to an expense account
Explanation:
We can use an example to explain this:
original journal entry to record a 3 year insurance policy on January 1 is:
Dr Prepaid insurance 3,600
Cr Cash 3,600
Adjusting entry on December 31
Dr Insurance expense 1,200
Cr Prepaid insurance 1,200
balance of prepaid insurance = $3,600 - $1,200 = $2,400
If instead of recording prepaid insurance on January 1, you recorded insurance expense:
Dr Insurance expense 3,600
Cr Cash 3,600
Adjusting entry on December 31
Dr Prepaid insurance 2,400
Cr Insurance expense 2,400
balance of prepaid insurance = $2,400
Determine the selling price PV, per $1,000 maturity value, of the bond. HINT [See Example 8.] (Assume twice-yearly interest payments. Do not round those payments to the nearest cent. Round your selling price PV to the nearest cent.) 20-year, 4.225% bond, with a yield of 4.23%
Answer:
$999.60
Explanation:
For computing the selling price i.e. present value we have to use the present value function i.e. shown below:
Given that
NPER = 20 × 2 = 40
PMT = $1,000 × 4.225% ÷ 2 = $21.125
RATE = 4.23% ÷ 2 = 2.115%
FV = $1,000
the formula is shown below:
PV =-PV(RATE;NPER;PMTFV;TYPE)
After applying the above formula, the present value is $999.60
On August 20th, one of your employees comes to you with a vacation request. The employee’s available vacation time expires on September 1st, however she wants to take her vacation between September 20th through the 25th.
She asks you to submit her vacation request to the corporate office for the week prior to September 1st, and wants you to not schedule her for the days between the 20th and 25th, and she wants her "vacation" pay for those days.
Would you do it? Why? or Why Not?
Answer:
No
Explanation:
Her vacation is expired and therefore invalid. Also she is requesting for a pay during this period which counters Amy form of sympathy for this employee. However, depending on the relationship the employee has with her employer, there might be a compromise especially if the employee really does need the vacation as she may be burned out or may have postponed vacation till expiration for the interest of the company
You are considering starting a company that manufactures racing bicycles. You are planning on financing your firm 40% equity and 60% debt. You estimate that your upfront costs will be $5M, and that you will earn an EBIT of $1M per year for the next 12 years. Lightning Bolt Bikes makes racing bicycles similar to the ones that you wish to manufacture. They have a CAPM equity beta of 1.9 and a debt to equity ratio of 0.7. The tax rate for both firms is 35%, the riskless rate is 3%, and the expected return on the S&P500 is 15%. Cost of Debt is 6%
Part A (5 points). What is the asset beta of Lightning Bolt Bikes?
Part B (5 points). What is your unlevered cost of equity?
Part C (5 points). What is your firm’s equity beta?
Part D (10 points). What is your firm’s weighted average cost of capital?
Part E (5 points). What is the NPV of your proposed bicycle company using the WACC method?
Answer and Explanation:
1. Asset beta measures company's risk or volatility of return in assets without the effect of leverage financing or debt.
Asset beta= Equity beta / 1+(1-tax rate) *debt / equity
2. Unlevered cost of equity measures the returns on assets without the effect of debt
Unlevered cost of equity = Risk free return + Asset Beta * (Expected market return - Risk free return)
3. Equity beta measures security prices' volatility to change in the market
4. Weighted average cost of capital is the weighted average cost or average cost of all capital sources employed by the company in financing it's assets
Weighted Average cost of capital = Cost of Equity * proportion of equity + Cost of debt after tax rate * proportion of debt
Expected return in CAPM= Risk free return +asset beta *market return -risk free return
The inventory of a large grocery store client is material, and it is the largest current asset on the balance sheet. The cost of inventory items ranges from very small amounts (like individual candy at the checkout line) to larger amounts (like prime meat and specialty deli items). Typical risks for a grocery store are theft and spoilage of inventory. During the second quarter, the client caught three employees in a scheme of stealing produce and meats from the store and selling them, at a discount, to friends and family. Based on an investigation by authorities and store management, the scheme had been operating for about two months.
Required:
Based on the information, evaluate which accounts and assertions are at risk of misstatement.
Answer:
The auditor of the large grocery store can identify the accounts at risk of misstatement to include Inventory account, Cost of Goods Sold account, and Accounts Payable account. They have some relationships. A misstatement in the Inventory account will lead to a misstatement in the Cost of Goods Sold, which eventually affects the Net Income.
The auditor should be aware that the assertions that are at risk of misstatement include existence, completeness, accuracy and valuation, and disclosure of Inventory. Assuming that the pilfering scheme had gone on for more months, the employees could have devised more sinister schemes.
Explanation:
The management of this large grocery store must attest to the assertions of existence, completeness, rights and obligations, accuracy and valuation, and presentation and disclosure with regard to the accuracy of the information contained in the financial statements: the balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flows. This implies that its management must declare that it has truthfully measured and presented the financial information about its activities.
Deferred tax liability $ 355,000 $ 463,000 The income statement reported tax expense for Year 2 in the amount of $580,000. Required: 1. What was the amount of income taxes payable for Year 2
Answer: $472,000
Explanation:
Deferred Tax Liability arises as a result of the different accounting methods used by Companies and by the Government for taxation.
Deferred tax liabilities are taxes that are owed to the Government due to the company using the Accrual system but as the Government uses the Cash basis, they have not yet recognised this tax.
The Tax Payable in Year 2 is;
= Reported Tax Expense - increase in Deferred Tax liability
= 580,000 - (463,000 - 355,000)
= $472,000

An individual has $2000 in physical assets, and $600 in cash initially. This person faces the following loss distribution to the wealth. Full insurance is available at $600
Probability Loss
0.5 0
0.1 200
0.2 400
0.1 1000
0.1 2000
The Individual can also buy partial insurance with i. a $200 deductible, or ii. 75% coinsurance, or iii. Upper limit on coverage, with the limit being $1000. The premium on each partial coverage policy is $450.
Required:
Provide a ranking of the four types of policies for the individual, in terms of preference if the preference function is given by U(FW) = LN(1+FW), where FW is final wealth of the individual.
Answer with Explanation:
Probability Expected Loss Loss Forecast
0.5 0 0
0.1 200 20
0.2 400 80
0.1 1000 100
0.1 2000 200
1.00 Total 400
Now,
A. Final Wealth with no Insurance = Physical Assets of the person + Cash Assets - Total Loss Forecast
By putting values, we have:
Final Wealth with no Insurance = $2,000 + $600 - $400 = $2,200
B. For Full insurance, we will not consider expected loss because we will receive Insurance Premium instead:
Final Wealth with Full Insurance = Physical Assets + Cash Assets - Insurance Premium
By putting values, we have:
Final Wealth with Full Insurance = $2,000 + $600 - $600 = $2,000
C. Final Wealth with Partial Insurance and $200 deductibles = Physical Assets + Cash Assets - Insurance Premium For Partial Coverage - Deductible
By putting values, we have:
Final Wealth with Partial Insurance and $200 deductibles = $2,000 + $600 - $450 - $200 = $1,950
D. Final Wealth with 75% Co-insurance = Physical Assets + Cash Assets - Insurance Premium - Co-payment
By putting values, we have:
Final Wealth with 75% Co-Insurance = $2,000 + $600 - $450 - (75% * $400)
= $1,850
E. Final Wealth with Partial Insurance and $1,000 Upper Limit = Physical Assets + Cash Assets - Insurance Premium - Maximum Loss Expected
By putting values, we have:
= $2,000 + $600 - $450 - (Probability 0.1 * $2,000) = $1950
From the above, we can say that the best option here in descending order is as under:
1. A. Final Wealth with no Insurance
2. B. With Full insurance
3. C. Final Wealth with Partial Insurance and $200 deductibles & E. Final Wealth with Partial Insurance and $1,000 Upper Limit
4. E. Final Wealth with Partial Insurance and $1,000 Upper Limit

Alan inherited $100,000 with the stipulation that he "invest it to financially benefit his family." Alan and his wife Alice decided they would invest the inheritance to help them accomplish two financial goals: purchasing a Park City vacation home and saving for their son Cooper’s education.
Vacation Home Cooper’s Education
Initial investment $50,000 $50,000
Investment horizon 5 years 18 years
Alan and Alice have a marginal income tax rate of 32 percent (capital gains rate of 15 percent) and have decided to investigate the following investment opportunities.
Required:
Determine the two annual after-tax rate of return.
Answer:
the question is missing the information about potential investments, so I looked for a similar one:
5 Years 18 Years
Corporate bonds 5.75% 4.75%
(ordinary interest taxed annually)
Dividend-paying stock 3.50% 3.50%
(no appreciation and dividends are taxed at 15%)
Growth stock FV $65,000 FV $140,000
Municipal bond (tax-exempt) 3.20% 3.10%
Alan and Alice should invest in growth stocks since they yield the highest after tax return:
5 years:
FV of growth stocks = $65,000
taxable gain = $65,000 -$50,000 = $15,000 x 15% = $2,250
net gain = $15,000 - $2,250 = $12,750
to determine the yield rate we can use the future value formula:
62,750 = 50,000 x (1 + r)⁵
(1 + r)⁵ = 62,750 / 50,000 = 1.255
⁵√(1 + r)⁵ = ⁵√1.255
1 + r = 1.046
r = 4.6% after tax yield per year
18 years:
FV of growth stocks = $140,000
taxable gain = $140,000 -$50,000 = $90,000 x 15% = $13,500
net gain = $90,000 - $13,500 = $76,500
to determine the yield rate we can use the future value formula:
126,500 = 50,000 x (1 + r)¹⁸
(1 + r)¹⁸ = 126,500 / 50,000 = 2.53
¹⁸√(1 + r)¹⁸ = ¹⁸√2.53
1 + r = 1.053
r = 5.3% after tax yield per year
MotorCar, a major automobile company headquartered in Detroit, is concerned about being left behind in the race to produce autonomous vehicles. There remains much uncertainty regarding the future of autonomous vehicle technology. Some industry experts say fully self-driving cars could be brought to market within a couple of years. Others believe the technology could take decades to develop. And still others are skeptical that the technology will ever be safe enough to bring to the automobile mass market. Further, in addition to safety and technological hurdles, there are regulatory obstacles as well. However, MotorCar has decided that it needs to innovate.
The company is considering (1) increasing funding to its existing R&D department to expand to the development of AI (artificial intelligence) technology, needed for self-driving vehicles; (2) launching a fully owned subsidiary (a new company that it owns and controls) focused exclusively on AI; or (3) partnering with a major Silicon Valley tech company that has already made considerable progress on AI technology.
Required:
What do you see as some of the potential benefits and risks of these different organizational approaches?
Answer:
(1) increasing funding to its existing R&D department to expand to the development of AI (artificial intelligence) technology, needed for self-driving vehicles
This strategy would produce the benefit of puttinig the company on the edge of the development of AI in order to produce driverless vehicles.
The risk is that the investment could be too high for the initial benefit, since there is no certainty that driveless cars will be in the market in the short-term.
(2) launching a fully owned subsidiary (a new company that it owns and controls) focused exclusively on AI
This strategy would produce a similar benefit as the strategy above. However, it could also benefit from a little bit less administrative control because in this case, the AI development would be in charge of a subsidiary, not a division.
The risk is the same as above: initial investments may be too high for the initial benefits.
(3) partnering with a major Silicon Valley tech company that has already made considerable progress on AI technology.
This strategy produces the benefit of requiring less investment while still putting the company on the edge of AI research. However, the risk lies in loss of control over the thecnology, and possible future conflicts with the partner company.
Last month Empire Company had a $35,280 profit on sales of $287,000. Fixed costs are $68,040 a month. By how much would sales be able to decrease for Empire to still break even
Answer:
sales might decrease by $287,000 - $189,000 = $98,000 and the company will still break even
Explanation:
gross profit = net income + fixed costs = $35,280 + $68,040 = $103,320
COGS = total sales - gross profit = $287,000 - $103,320 = $183,680
contribution margin ratio = $103,320 / $287,000 = 36%
break even point in $ = $68,040 / 36% = $189,000
sales might decrease by $287,000 - $189,000 = $98,000 and the company will still break even
If national income is $5,000 billion, compensation of employees is $1,105 billion, proprietors’ income is $1,520 billion, corporate profits are $490 billion, and net interest is $128 billion, then rental income is equal to
Answer:
Rental income = $1,757 billion
Explanation:
National income is defined as the value of goods and services that a nation produces within a financial year.
Therefore it is made up of all economic actives that the nation is involved in.
The gross domestic product is a measure of the national income.
The formula for national income is given below
National income = employees compensation + proprietors' income + corporate profits + rental income +net interest
5,000 billion = 1,105 billion + 1,520 billion + 490 billion + rental income + 128 billion
Rental income = 5,000 billion - 3,243 billion
Rental income = $1,757 billion

Complete question :
Your company has sales of $101,500 this year and cost of goods sold of $66,300. You forecast sales to increase to $118,900 next year. Using the percent of sales method, forecast next year's cost of goods sold. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 temporarily allows 100% bonus depreciation (effectively expensing capital expenditures). However, we will still include depreciation forecasting in this chapter and in these problems in anticipation of the return of standard depreciation practices during your career The forecasted cost of goods sold (COGS) is $ ___________ (Round to the nearest dollar.)
Answer:
$77,666
Explanation:
Given the following :
Sales for the year = $101,500
Cost of goods sold =$66,300
Forecasted increase in sales for next year = $118,900
Forecasted cost of goods sold for next year =?
Percentage cost of goods sold for this year:
Cost of goods sold / sales for this year
$66300/$101500
= 0.6532019
Forecasted cost of goods sold for next year:
(Forecasted increase in next year's sale * % cost of goods sold for this year)
= 118,900 * 0.6532019
= $77665.714
= $77666 ( nearest dollar)

The city of Belgrade, Serbia, is contemplating building a second airport to relieve congestion at the main airport and is considering two potential sites, X and Y. Hard Rock Hotels would like to purchase land to build a hotel at the new airport. The value of land has been rising in anticipation and is expected to skyrocket once the city decides between sites X and Y. Consequently, Hard Rock would like to purchase land now. Hard Rock will sell the land if the city chooses not to locate the airport nearby. Hard Rock has four choices: (1) buy land at X, (2) buy land at Y, (3) buy land at both X and Y, or (4) do nothing. Hard Rock has collected the following data (which are in millions of euros):
Site X Site Y
Current purchase price 29 18
Profits if airport & hotel built at this site 35 30
Sale price if airport not built at this site 8 4
Hard Rock determines there is a 55% chance the airport will be built at X (hence, a 45% chance it will be built at Y)
Set up a decision table (in millions of Euros) (enter as a whole number and include minus sign if necessary)
State of Nature
Alternatives Airport at X Airport at Y
buy land at X
buy land at Y
buy land at both X & Y
Do nothing
Probability 0.55 0.45
Answer:
Alternatives Airport at X Airport at Y
Buy land at X 6 -14
Buy land at Y -21 12
Buy land at X and Y -15 -2
Do nothing 0 0
probability 0.55 0.45
Payoff if you buy land at X = (0.55 x 6) + (0.45 x -) = -3
Payoff if you buy land at Y = (0.55 x -21) + (0.45 x 12) = -6.15
Payoff if you buy land at X and Y = (0.55 x -15) + (0.45 x -2) = -9.15
Payoff for doing nothing = 0
The best option is simply doing nothing. The risks are too high, the potential losses are very large and the benefits are really low.
