Like all companies, McDonald's needs to continue identifying, developing, and introducing new products. One recent concept McDonald's identified is a vegan burger. After assessing the concept, McDonald's research and development kitchen developed a vegan burger that they felt would be appealing to the 13% of Americans that are vegetarian or vegan. Before rolling the vegan burger out, McDonald's wanted to examine the viability in the real world, but on a limited basis. McDonald's next step should be to ________ the vegan burger.
a. test market
b. concept test
c. field exam
d. commercialize
Answer:
a. test market
Explanation:
The test market consists of a strategy used by organizations to assess how consumers will be receptive to a new product or service launched. In this step, companies select a group of consumers or a specific region with a profile aligned with the new product, to feel the reaction of the market, and then be able to distribute the product on a large scale. After defining the target audience of the test market, the companies monitor the promotion and distribution strategies, carrying out a kind of test to verify the errors and successes of the marketing campaign and the possibilities of the insertion of the new product in the mass market to be successful .
This is an advantageous strategy for companies, due to the lower cost associated with a large-scale launch, the monitoring of high risks, and the possibility of feeling the market, making corrections and checking the demand for the product.
Prepare journal entries to record the following transactions involving the short-term securities investments of Krum Co., all of which occurred during year 2017. On August 1, paid $78,000 cash to purchase Houtte's 12% debt securities ($78,000 principal), dated July 30, 2017, and maturing January 30, 2018 (categorized as available-for-sale securities). On October 30, received a check from Houtte for 90 days' interest on the debt securities purchased in transaction a. (Use 360 days in a year. Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
Journal entries are shown below.
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,
Short-term security investment = $78,000
Debt securities rate = 12%
Interest on debt securities for 90days = $78,000 × ( 12% × 90÷360 )
= $2,340
So, Journal entries are as follows,
(a) Aug.1, 2017 Short-term security investment A/c Dr. $78,000
To, Cash A/c $78,000
(Being purchase of debt security is recorded)
(b) Oct.30, 2017 Cash A/c Dr. $2,340
To, Interest A/c $2,340
(Being interest received is recorded)
For each of the following scenarios, determine whether the situation described can be attributed to the real-balances effect, the interest-rate effect, or the foreign-purchases effect.
a. As a result of an increase in the price level, the cost of borrowing increases, which causes people to buy fewer cars.
1. Real-balances effect
2. Foreign-purchases effect
3. Interest-rate effect
b. When the price level decreases, restaurants become busier as more people purchase restaurant meals.
1. Real-balances effect
2. Foreign-purchases effect
3. Interest-rate effect
Answer:
A)Interest-rate effect
B)Real-balances effect
Explanation:
✓The interest rate effect can be regarded as change in borrowing as well as spending behaviors as a consequence or result of adjustment of interest rate. As a general rule, interest are been set by central bank of the nation, then consumer banks will then extend similar interest rates across their customers. For instance
As a result of an increase in the price level, the cost of borrowing increases, which causes people to buy fewer cars.
✓ In economics, real balance effect can be regarded as "Pigou effect" which can be regarded as stimulation of output as well as employment which is been caused as a result of increased consumption through a rise in real balances of wealth, especially during time of deflation. Instance of this is
When the price level decreases, restaurants become busier as more people purchase restaurant meals.
Crane Company estimates its sales at 80000 units in the first quarter and that sales will increase by 8000 units each quarter over the year. They have, and desire, a 25% ending inventory of finished goods. Each unit sells for $25. 40% of the sales are for cash. 70% of the credit customers pay within the quarter. The remainder is received in the quarter following sale. Cash collections for the third quarter are budgeted at
Answer:
Total cash collection Third Quarter= $2,364,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
40% of the sales are for cash.
70% of the credit customers pay within the quarter.
The remainder is received in the quarter following the sale.
Sales:
Q2= 88,000*25= 2,200,000
Q3= 96,000*25= 2,400,000
Selling price per unit= $25
Cash collection Third Quarter:
Sales in cash= 2,400,000*0.4= 960,000
Sales on account third quarter= (2,400,000*0.6)*0.7= 1,008,000
Sales on account second quarter= (2,200,000*0.6)*0.3= 396,000

Karen, Kelsey, Rita, and Lizzi own a large commercial building as concurrent owners. They are tenants with the right to survivorship. Lizzi transfers her one-quarter interest in the building to a private charity organization owned by Stella. Which form of concurrent ownership would allow Karen, Kelsey, and Rita to become the owners of the property following Lizzi's death without the inclusion of the private charity organization run by Stella?
a) a tenancy in common
b) a tenancy by entirety
c) a joint tenancy
d) a community property
Answer:
Option C: A Joint tenancy
Explanation:
Joint Tenancy
This is simply a type of a concurrent estate. This is the process by which the cotenants have acquired four unities of title. That is the: the unity of Time, the unity of Title, the Unity of Interest and the Unity of Possession. The cotenants must received these unities from the same transferor(s) and each joint tenant is has equal right to the primary benefit of a joint tenancy such as the right of survivorship. It is the property that belongs to two or more people, even if married or unmarried.
This Joint tenancy deals with 2 or more tenants who owns the land altogether, in all. No tenant has more than the other.
The right of survivorship
It is stated that upon death of a joint tenant, the deceased's interest transfers straight to the surviving joint tenant or tenants-one less owner
A new operating system for an existing machine is expected to cost $565,000 and have a useful life of six years. The system yields an incremental after-tax income of $165,000 each year after deducting its straight-line depreciation. The predicted salvage value of the system is $25,000. A machine costs $410,000, has a $26,000 salvage value, is expected to last eight years, and will generate an after-tax income of $75,000 per year after straight-line depreciation. Assume the company requires a 10% rate of return on its investments. Compute the net present value of each potential investment. (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)
Answer:
The net present value of each potential investment:

b. Certainly, Turnover and Warner Bros. are more profitable businesses than Home Box Office in terms of total contribution margin (dollars) and contribution margin ratio.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Segment Revenues
(in millions)
Turner (cable networks and digital media) $21,700
Home Box Office (pay television) 22,200
Warner Bros. (films, television, and videos) 80,600
Assume that the variable costs as a percent of sales for each segment are as follows:
Turner 22%
Home Box Office 47%
Warner Bros. 32%
b) The contribution margin ratio for the three segments can easily be determined by subtracting the variable costs percentages from 100 for each segment instead of doing more computations (Contribution margin/Sales Revenue * 100). But the results are the same for either method.
Overhead Application, Activity-Based Costing, Bid Prices Firenza Company manufactures specialty tools to customer order. Budgeted overhead for the coming year is:
Purchasing $40,000
Setups 37,500

Josiah is training users to navigate Access forms. What is the best way to advance in the form to the next field?
Enter
Shift+Tab
Ctrl+Home
End
Answer: Enter
Explanation:
If one wants to move to the next field but still in the same form on Access, one simply needs to tap the Enter button and it will move on. This is the same thing that happens in Excel when Enter is tapped.
It is probably because the forms created in Access do not allow for paragraphs so the enter key will only move you to another field instead of creating a new paragraph.
if the market price of common stock increases substantially, bondholders with convertible bonds benefit. convertible bonds can be converted into common stock at the option of the issuing company. bondholders with convertible bonds receive interest on the bonds until conversion. convertible bonds sell at a higher price and pay a lower rate of interest than those without the conversion option.
Answer:
if the market price of common stock increases substantially,
bondholders with convertible bonds benefit.
Explanation:
A convertible bond is a fixed interest debt security. The number of common shares into which it can be converted is predetermined at the issuance date. While the conversion can be done at certain time in the life of the bond, the decision to convert is usually at the discretion of the bondholder. As investors, bondholders opt to convert when it would be most profitable. This happens when the market price of the common stock increases.
The Jenkins Corporation has purchased an executive jet. The company has agreed to pay $200,000 per year for the next 10 years and an additional $1,000,000 at the end of the 10th year. The seller of the jet is charging 6% annual interest. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, and PVA of $1) (Use the appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) Determine the liability that would be recorded by Jenkins.'
Answer:
Present value of liability = $2,030,412.1871 rounded off to $2,030,412.19
Explanation:
To calculate the amount that would be recorded as a liability, we need to find the present value of the jet. The present value can be calculated by discounting the cash flows provided in the question. The 200000 cash flows that will be payable every year are in the form of an ordinary annuity and their present value will be calculated using the attached formula. The present value of 1000000 that is payable at the end of the 10th year will be calculated as follows,
Present Value of Cash flow = Cash Flow / (1+r)^t
Where,
r is the discount rate t is the time periodPresent value of liability = 200000 * [(1 - (1+0.06)^-10) / 0.06] +
1000000 / (1+0.06)^10
Present value of liability = $2,030,412.1871 rounded off to $2,030,412.19

hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi łíłśKim's Bridal Shoppe has 10,400 shares of common stock outstanding at a price of $38 per share. It also has 225 shares of preferred stock outstanding at a price of $89 per share. There are 540 bonds outstanding that have a coupon rate of 5.7 percent paid semiannually. The bonds mature in 19 years, have a face value of $1,000, and sell at 94 percent of par. What is the capital structure weight of the common stock
Answer:
42.83%
Explanation:
The computation of the weight of the common stock is shown below
= Common stock ÷ Total capital
= $395,200 ÷ $922,825
= 42.83%
Working note
For Common Stock
= 10,400 shares × $38
= $395,200
For Preferred Stock
= 225 shares × $89
= $20,025
Bonds Outstanding
= 540 Bonds × $1,000 × 94% of par
= $507,600
Now the Total capital is
= $395,200 + $20,025 + $507,600
= $922,825
Sunland Company received proceeds of $664000 on 10-year, 6% bonds issued on January 1, 2019. The bonds had a face value of $704000, pay interest annually on December 31, and have a call price of 105. Sunland uses the straight-line method of amortization. What is the amount of interest expense Sunland will show with relation to these bonds for the year ended December 31, 2020
Answer:
$46,240
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the amount of interest expense Sunland will show with relation to these bonds for the year ended December 31, 2020
Interest expense=($704,000 × .06)+[($704000-$664000)/10]
Interest expense= $42,240+($40,000/10)
Interest expense=$42,240+$4,000
Interest expense=$46,240
Therefore the amount of interest expense Sunland will show with relation to these bonds for the year ended December 31, 2020 is $46,240
Juan and Carl have a small medical practice that operates as a partnership. Juan does 70% of the work and Carl does 30%. However, Carl invested 60% of the money required to start the business. If the company makes $100,000 in profit this year, how much will each partner receive?
a. Juan will receive $70,000; Carl will receive $30,000.
b. Juan will receive $50,000; Carl will receive $50,000.
c. Juan will receive $40,000; Carl will receive $60,000.
d. Juan will receive $60,000; Carl will receive $40,000.
e. Profits will be shared in the proportion specified in the partnership agreement.
Answer:
e. Profits will be shared in the proportion specified in the partnership agreement.
Explanation:
Partnership agreement is the governing document of an partnership. The agreement consist of how profit will be shared and has been agreed right before the partnership contract become become binding. Thus, the fact that Juan does 70% of the work and Carl does 30% of work does not specifies nor idicate profit sharing. Also, the fact that Carl invested 60% of the money required to start the business does not specify profit sharing as well. The profit sharing agreement is in the partnership agreement.

the information or content on the website is not relevant to usersthe website takes too long to loadExcessive advertisement on the websiteMcCoy's Fish House purchases a tract of land and an existing building for $930,000. The company plans to remove the old building and construct a new restaurant on the site. In addition to the purchase price, McCoy pays closing costs, including title insurance of $2,300. The company also pays $12,600 in property taxes, which includes $8,300 of back taxes (unpaid taxes from previous years) paid by McCoy on behalf of the seller and $4,300 due for the current fiscal year after the purchase date. Shortly after closing, the company pays a contractor $46,500 to tear down the old building and remove it from the site. McCoy is able to sell salvaged materials from the old building for $3,600 and pays an additional $10,300 to level the land.
Required:
Determine the amount McCoy’s Fish House should record as the cost of the land.
Answer:
The amount McCoy’s Fish House should record as the cost of the land is $993,800.
Explanation:
The amount McCoy’s Fish House should record as the cost of the land can be determined as follows:
Total cost of the land = Purchase price + Title insurance + Property taxes which are back taxes + Cost of removing the building – Salvage value + Additional cost of leveling the land = $930,000 + $2,300 + $8,300 + $46,500 - $3,600 + $10,300 = $993,800
Therefore, the amount McCoy’s Fish House should record as the cost of the land is $993,800.

Answer:
There are no options included so I will give the answers as beat I can based on economic knowledge.
FISCAL policy is designed to shift the aggregate DEMAND curve by the federal government changing its SPENDING and TAXATION policies.
The government can influence the economy through fiscal policy. It does this by changing its taxation and spending policies to either increase economic growth or reduce overheating.
An EXPANSIONARY fiscal policy would attempt to speed up the economy by shifting this curve to the RIGHT. This would be accomplished by the government spending MORE than it took received in taxes. Such a policy would result in a budgetary DEFICIT .
With an expansionary policy, the government would increase it's spending such that it would be more than the taxation imposed. With the government spending more than they brought it from taxes, a budget deficit will result.
Such a policy would be employed to get the economy out of a RECESSION and fight the undesirable economic phenomenon of UNEMPLOYMENT.
When the economy is going through a recession, the economy will be facing a decline so in order to renew growth, the government would spend more to bring it out of a decline and therefore prevent or reduce unemployment.
