Divac’s preferred stock is $100 par, 8% stock. If the stock is liquidated or redeemed, stockholders are entitled to $120 per share. There are no dividends in arrears on the stock. The common stock has a par value of $10 per share. Assume that the common stockholders have a right to the total net income of $74,000.
Answer:
1. 59.21%
2. $15.98
Explanation:
Note: The table is attached as picture below
Required: "1. Determine the dividend payout ratio for the common stock 2. Determine the book value per share of Divac’s common stock."
1. Dividend Payout Ratio = Cash Dividend / Net Income * 100
Dividend Payout Ratio = 45,000 / 76,000 * 100
Dividend Payout Ratio = 59.21052631578947%
Dividend Payout Ratio = 59.21%
2. Number of Shares for Preferred Stock = Total Value of Preferred Stock / Par Value Per Share of Preferred Stock
Number of Shares for Preferred Stock = 110,000 /100
Number of Shares for Preferred Stock = 1,100
Liquidation Value of Preferred Stock = Number of Shares of Preferred Stock * Liquidation Price Per Share
Liquidation Value of Preferred Stock = 1,100 * 120
Liquidation Value of Preferred Stock = 132,000
Total Stockholders' Equity ′ = Preferred Stock + Paid in Capital Preferred + Common Stock + Paid in Capital Common + Retained Earnings
Total Stockholders' Equity = 110,000 + 55,000 + 500,000 + 50,000 + 216,000
Total Stockholders' Equity = 931,000
Net Assets Applicable to Common Stock = Total Stockholders' Equity - Liquidation Value of Preferred Stock
Net Assets Applicable to Common Stock = 931,000 - 132,000
Net Assets Applicable to Common Stock = 799,000
Number of Shares of Common Stock = Total Value of Common Stock / Par Value Per Share of Common Stock
Number of Shares of Common Stock = 500,000 / $10
Number of Shares of Common Stock = 50,000
Book Value Per Share = Net Assets Applicable to Common Stock / Number of Shares of Common Stock Net Assets Applicable to Common Stock
Book Value Per Share = 799,000 / 50,000
Book Value Per Share = $15.98
So therefore, the Book Value Per Share is $15.98 per share
Mary saw a bangle bracelet at an accessories shop that she liked and told her friend Susan that the most she would pay for it was $38.00. When she found out the price was $33.50, she immediately bought it and gained $
nothing in consumer surplus. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places)

.
Answer:
$4.50 and =$9.00
Explanation:
Consumer surplus is the difference between what a consumer is willing to pay for a good or service and its market price.
i.e., Consumer surplus = maximum willing price - actual price
Mary is willing to pay $38.00, and the market price is $33.50 .
The consumer surplus = $38 - $33.50
=$4.50
If Mary buys a second bracelet, total consumer surplus would be
=$4.50 x 2
=$9.00

The total amount of common fixed expenses not traceable to the individual divisions is $106,800. What is the company's net operating income (loss)?Brewer 8e Rechecks 2018-06-22a) $241,800b) $135,000c) $28,200d) $135,000
Answer:
c) $28,200
Explanation:
The computation of the net operating income is as follows
Total segment margin is
= $41,300 + $93,700
= $135,000
And, the common fixed expenses is $106,800
So, the net operating income is
= Total segment margin - common fixed expenses
= $135,000 - $106,800
= $28,200
Hence, the net operating income is $28,200
Therefore the correct option is c.
On January 1, 2020, Global Sales issued $25,000 in bonds for $29,800. These are eight-year bonds with a stated rate of 15% and pay semiannual interest. Global Sales uses the straight-line method to amortize the bond premium. On June 30, 2020, when Global makes the first payment to bondholders, what is the amount that will be reported as Interest Expense? (Round your intermediate answers to the nearest dollar.) Group of answer choices $1575 $3225 $1875 $1225
Answer:
$ 1,875
Explanation:
Note that cash payable to bondholders semiannually( semiannual coupon payment) is the face value multiplied by the stated rate of 15% apportioned to reflect six-month payment rather than a whole year as computed below:
semiannual coupon payment=face value*coupon rate*6/12
face value=$25,000
coupon rate=15%
semiannual coupon payment=$25,000*15%*6/12
semiannual coupon payment=$1,875
In examining investors’ preferences for dividends, it is useful to begin with the concept of dividend irrelevance. Dividend irrelevance suggests that in a world with no taxes or brokerage (or transaction) costs, firms and investors are indifferent to the paying or receiving of dividends. However, as these restrictions are relaxed, various factors suggest that firms should pursue high or low payouts. One such factor is:
Answer: Favor a high payout
Explanation:
Investors are allowed to exclude as much as 70% of dividend income from taxes. They will therefore demand a higher payout in terms of investment so that they make make more income after they exclude taxes.
For instance, assume investors had a choice between receiving $40 and $60 in dividends.
On $40, the non-taxable amount would be = 40 * 70% = $28
On $60, the non-taxable amount would be = 60 * 70% = $42
They will pick the higher payout of $60 in order to get more income after tax.
Select the examples of layoffs. Check all that apply. India loses her job as an Urban Planner because the city ran out of funding. Tori loses her job as a Foreign Service Officer because she is not good at communicating with or negotiating with foreign officials. Hunter loses his job as a Tax Examiner because he keeps making mistakes. Fidel loses his job as an Eligibility Interviewer because Legislators decided to cut his department, even though Fidel was very good at his job.

Explanation:
A layoff refers to the termination of an employment contract due to a shortage of work. Employers initiate layoffs. They may be a temporary suspension of employment or permanent termination.
Layoffs are not a result of an employee's fault or incompetency. They may be caused by declining revenue, some operations' shutdown, automation of processes, and outsourcing of some services.
Fidel's case was a layoff. There was no work available for him after his department was shutdown.
Answer:
A.) India loses her job as an Urban Planner because the city ran out of funding.
D.) Fidel loses his job as an Eligibility Interviewer because Legislators decided to cut his department, even though Fidel was very good at his job.

Your healthy 63-year-old neighbor is about to retire and comes to you for advice. From talking with her, you find out she was planning on taking all the money out of her company’s retirement plan and investing it in bond mutual funds and money market funds. What advice should you give her? Reilly, Frank K.; Brown, Keith C.. Investment Analysis and Portfolio Management (Text Only) (p. 56). Cengage Textbook. Kindle Edition.
Answer:
Both mutual funds and money market funds are similar in the sense that they pool money from several investors in a variety of instruments. The difference is that money market funds pool the money in very liquid, short-term securities, while mutual funds do the same but in less liquid, longer-term securities.
The 63-year-old neighbor should therefore split the money around 60/40, 60% of the funds for mutual funds, in order to have long-term security, and 40% in the money market funds, in order to have quick cash available when needed.

Gross Corporation adopted the dollar-value LIFO method of inventory valuation on December 31, 2019. Its inventory at that date was $1,100,000 and the relevant price index was 100. Information regarding inventory for subsequent years is as follows: Inventory at Current Date Current Prices Price Index December 31, 2020 $1,284,000 107 December 31, 2021 1,450,000 125 December 31, 2022 1,625,000 130 What is the cost of the ending inventory at December 31, 2021 under dollar-value LIFO
Answer: $1,175,000
Explanation:
Cost of ending inventory December 31, 2021;
= December 2019 ending inventory + {(Inventory at 2021 price/2021 index * 2019 index) - December 2019 ending inventory} * 2021 index / 2019 index
= 1,100,000 + {(1,450,000/125 * 100) - 1,100,000} * 125/100
= 1,100,000 + 75,000
= $1,175,000

On January 1, 2020, Novak Corp. had inventory of $56,500. At December 31, 2020, Novak had the following account balances.
Freight-in $4,800
Purchases 509500
Purchase discounts 8000
Purchase returns and allowances 2700
Sales revenue 807000
Sales discounts 6000
Sales returns and allowances 10,900
At December 31, 2020, Novak determines that its ending inventory is $66,500.
Required:
Compute Novak's 2020 gross profit.
Compute Novak's 2020 operating expenses if net income is $143,000 and thre are no nonoperating activities.
Answer:
Gross Profit ⇒ $296,500Operating expenses ⇒ $153,500Explanation:
Gross Profit;
= Net sales - Cost of Goods sold
Net sales = Sales revenue - sales discounts - sales returns and allowances
= 807,000 - 6,000 - 10,900
= $790,100
Cost of Goods sold
= Opening balance + Purchases + Freight-in - Purchase discounts - Purchase returns and allowances -closing balance
= 56,500 + 509,500 + 4,800 - 8,000 - 2,700 - 66,500
= $493,600
Gross Profit = 790,100 - 493,600
= $296,500
Operating Expense
Net Income = Gross profit - operating expenses
143,000 = 296,500 - operating expenses
Operating expenses = 296,500 - 143,000
= $153,500

The Music Shop
Purchases Budget
January - May, 2010
January February March April May
Purchase units:
Purchase dollars:
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To calculate the purchases for each month, we need to use the following formula:
Purchases (units)= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
January (units):
Sales= 140,000
Desired ending inventory= (140,000*0.3)= 42,000
Beginning inventory= (60,000)
Total number of units= 122,000
Total cost= 122,000*4= $488,000
February (units):
Sales= 140,000
Desired ending inventory= (200,000*0.3)= 60,000
Beginning inventory= (42,000)
Total number of units= 158,000
Total cost= 158,000*4= $632,000
March (units):
Sales= 200,000
Desired ending inventory= (200,000*0.3)= 60,000
Beginning inventory= (60,000)
Total number of units= 200,000
Total cost= 200,000*4= $800,000
April (units):
Sales= 200,000
Desired ending inventory= (160,000*0.3)= 48,000
Beginning inventory= (60,000)
Total number of units= 188,000
Total cost= 188,000*4= $752,000
May (units):
Sales= 160,000
Desired ending inventory= (220,000*0.3)= 66,000
Beginning inventory= (48,000)
Total number of units= 178,000
Total cost= 178,000*4= $712,000
Your neighbor never mows his lawn. You don’t have any legal right to force him to mow, but the mess in his front yard is making your neighborhood unsightly and reducing the value of your house. The reduction in the value of your house is $5,000, and the value of his time to mow the lawn once a week is $1,000. Suppose you offer him a deal in which you pay him $3,000 to mow. How does this deal affect surplus?
Answer: The deal will have the effect of increasing both your surplus as well as your neighbor's
Explanation:
Assuming your neighbor accepts the deal, you would have paid $3,000 when in fact your house value had reduced by $5,000. This give you a surplus of $2,000 because you paid $2,000 less than the cost to you if your neighbor did not mow the lawn.
Your neighbor also makes a surplus because where normally it would cost them $1,000 to mow the lawn, they got $3,000. They also make a surplus of $2,000 over the cost to mow.
A Corporation produces shiny discs. A special order has been placed by the customer to Rick for 2,200 units of the shiny disc for $38 a unit. While the disc would be modified slightly for the special order, the normal unit product cost for each disc is $16.90:
Direct materials $ 4.60
Direct labor 4.00
Variable manufacturing overhead 1.70
Fixed manufacturing overhead 6.60
Unit product cost $ 16.90
Assume that direct labor is a variable cost. The special order would have no effect on the company's total fixed manufacturing overhead costs.
The customer would like modifications made to each disc that would increase the variable costs by $1.90 per unit and that would require an investment of $16,000 in special equipment that would have no salvage value.
This special order would have no effect on Rick Corp.'s other sales. The company has enough spare capacity for producing the special order.
What would be the annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for Rick as a result of accepting this special order?
a) $40,760
b) $15,700
c) $2,000
d) $16,200
Answer:
Rick Corporation
The annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for Rick as a result of accepting this special order is:
a) $40,760
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Special order for 2,200 units of shiny disc at $38 a unit
Normal product cost: Special order:
Direct materials $ 4.60 $ 4.60
Direct labor 4.00 4.00
Variable manufacturing overhead 1.70 1.70
Additional variable cost 1.90
Total variable costs $10.30 $12.20
Fixed manufacturing overhead 6.60 0
Investment in special equipment ($16,000/2,200) 7.273
Unit product cost $ 16.90 $19.473
Annual Financial Advantage (Disadvantage) for the special order:
Sales Revenue ($38 * 2,200) = $83,600
Variable costs ($12.20 * 2,200) 26,840
Contribution ($25.80 * 2,200) $56,760
Special equipment 16,000
Financial Advantage $40,760
Problems and Applications Q4 Suppose that the government imposes a tax on heating oil. True or False: The deadweight loss from this tax would likely be larger in the fifth year after it is imposed than in the first year as demand for heating oil becomes more elastic. True False The tax revenue collected from a tax on heating oil is likely to be in the first year after it is imposed than in the fifth year.
Answer:
TrueTrueExplanation:
The deadweight loss in the fifth year will indeed be higher in the fifth year than in the first because deadweight loss has been shown to increase with elasticity.
As demand becomes more elastic as a result of the oil becoming more expensive, tax revenue will decrease in future which means that tax revenue will be less in five years than in the first.
OKRs can be executed in stages. The first stage would be keyed to a deadline and then then once the project is completed and running objectives can be keyed to cash flow metrics.
a) true
b) false
Answer:
b) false

Communicate the OKRChoose a tool used for OKROrganize the Company's OKRSet the company's OKRSet every single OKR for teams, departments and IndividualsMake the changes in OKR if requiredApprove the OKR Evaluate the OKR at each period end.So, the OKR cannot be implemented in a single step and it requires multiple steps.
Hence the given statement is false.
Sraibn271 Corporation has two divisions: Domestic Division and Foreign Division. Last month, the corporation reported a contribution margin of $46,400 for Domestic Division. Foreign Division had a contribution margin ratio of 35% and its sales were $243,000. Net operating income for the Sraibn271 Corporation was $36,800 and traceable fixed expenses were $51,000.
(ID#19361)
What were Sraibn271 Corporation's common fixed expenses?
a) $131,450
b) $43,650
c) $51,000
d) $94,650
Answer: b) $43,650
Explanation:
Contribution margin of Domestic division + contribution margin of Foreign division - traceable fixed cost - common fixed cost = Net operating income for company
46,400 + (0.35 * 243,000) - 51,000 - Common = 36,800
80,450 - Common = 36,800

Bramble Corp. purchased a truck at the beginning of 2020 for $109000. The truck is estimated to have a salvage value of $3700 and a useful life of 121000 miles. It was driven 21000 miles in 2020 and 29000 miles in 2021. What is the depreciation expense for 2021
Answer:
2020 = 18275.206
2021 = 25237.190
Explanation:
Cost of truck at beginning of 2020 = $109,000
Salvage value = $3700
Useful life = 121,000 miles
Miles driven in 2020 = 21000
Miles driven in 2021 = 29000
Depreciation expense 2020:
((Cost of asset - salvage value) / useful life) * miles driven in 2020
((109,000 - 3700) / 121000) * 21000
0.8702479 * 21000 = 18275.206
Depreciation expense 2021:
((109,000 - 3700) / 121000) * 29000
= 25237.190
Harvey rents his second home. During the year, Harvey reported a net loss of $45,000 from the rental. If Harvey is an active participant in the rental and his AGI is $80,800, how much of the loss can he deduct against ordinary income for the year
Answer:
$25,000
Explanation:
Based on the information given we were told that a net loss of the amount of $45,000 from the rental was reported which means that if his is an active participant in the rental and his Adjusted gross income (AGI) was the amount of $80,800 the amount of loss that he can deduct against ordinary income for the year will be $25,000 reason been that his Adjusted gross income (AGI) is less than $100,000 and secondly the standard maximum rental amount that will be deducted for Adjusted gross income (AGI) than is less than $100,000 is $25,000.
Which of the following statements about adjustments is correct? Multiple Choice Accrued wages are wages owed, but not yet paid, to employees; the accrued wages will need to be recorded with an adjusting entry that increases expenses. When making an adjustment to recognize supplies used in a period, total assets will not change. Deferral adjustments are used to update amounts that have been previously deferred on the income statement. Depreciation is an example of an accrual adjustment.
Answer:
The Statement that is correct about adjustments is:
Accrued wages are wages owed, but not yet paid, to employees; the accrued wages will need to be recorded with an adjusting entry that increases expenses.
Explanation:
Unpaid wages are adjusted with a debit to the Wages Expense account, which increases the account, and a credit to the Wages Payable account, which also increases the account by the same amount. The purpose of this accrual adjustment is to ensure that the amount reported as Wages Expense is the actual expense incurred for Wages, whether actually paid or not, and thus report the accurate net income and liabilities for the period.
LaMount works for a company in downtown Chicago. The company encourages employees to use public transportation (to save the environment) by providing them with transit passes at a cost of $275 per month.
a. If LaMont receives one pass (worth $275) each month, how much of this benefit must he include in his gross income each year?
b. If the company provides each employee with $275 per month in parking benefits, how much of the parking benefit must LaMont include in his gross income each year?
Answer:
a. $60 per year
b. $60 per year
Explanation:
The IRS decide the limit for Employee Fringe Benefit every year. As per the Latest Statutory limit, we can generally exclude the value of Transportation benefits during 2020 from the Employee's wages up to $270 per month for combined commuter highway vehicle transportation and transit passes. In this case, since no year was mentioned in the question, it has been assumed as 2020.
a. The amount of transit pass benefit to be included in gross income each year is as follows:
Benefit included in gross income = Worth of pass - Slab rate
Benefit included in gross income = $275 - $270
Benefit included in gross income = $5 * 12 month
Benefit included in gross income = $60 per year
b. The amount of parking benefit that LaMont must include in his gross income each year is as follows
Parking benefit included in gross income = Parking benefit provided by the company - Slab rate
Parking benefit included in gross income = Worth of pass - Slab rate
Parking benefit included in gross income = $275 - $270
Parking benefit included in gross income = $5 * 12 month
Parking benefit included in gross income = $60 per year.
