A perfectly elastic supply curve is: Group of answer choices upward sloping to the right. vertical. horizontal. downward sloping to the left.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

vertical

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.

A subsidy causes a deadweight loss since people only make a purchase because the subsidy _____ the price. The amount they value the extra quantity is _____ than it costs the government to move them to buy it.

Answers

Answer: lowers; less

Explanation:

Subsidies are usually given on public goods which the government wants the public to buy more of. For this reason, these goods will cost less than they should on account of the government paying some of the cost.

The deadweight loss arises because the government is paying more than consumers would have paid in order to entice the consumers to buy the good. Essentially the cost to the government is higher than the consumer surplus which creates a deadweight loss.

You have just deposited $10,000 into an account that promises to pay you an annual interest rate of 6.3 percent each year for the next 4 years. You will leave the money invested in the account and 10 years from today, you need to have $32,800 in the account. What annual interest rate must you earn over the last 6 years to accomplish this goal

Answers

Answer:

The annual interest rate you must earn over the last 6 years to accomplish this goal is 17.03%.

Explanation:

Future value after 4 years = Deposited amount * (100% + Annual interest rate for 4 years)^4 = $10,000 * (100% + 6.3%)^4 =  12,768.30

The interest rate can be calculated using the following RATE function in Excel:

Interest rate = RATE(nper,pmt,-pv,fv,type) .............(1)

Where;

nper = number of periods = number of years remaining after 4 years = 10 - 4 = 6

pmt = Annual payments = 0 (This is 0 because there is no annual payment)

pv = present value = Future value after 4 years = $12,768.30

fv = future value = The amount you need to have in the account after 10 years = $32,800

type = when payments are due (0 = end of period. 1 = beginning of period) = 0

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Interest rate = RATE(6,0,-12768.30,32800,0) .................. (2)

Inputting =RATE(6,0,-12768.30,32800,0) into a cell in an excel sheet (Note: as done in the attached excel file), the annual interest rate is obtained as 17.03%.

Therefore, the annual interest rate you must earn over the last 6 years to accomplish this goal is 17.03%.

Assume US GAAP to answer this question. In 2017, $2 million in wages were earned and no cash wages were paid. In 2018, $8 million in wages were earned and $9 million in cash wages were paid. Cash wages were used to first pay wages earned in 2017 with the remainder used to pay wages earned in 2018. Any earned but unpaid wages will be paid during the first quarter of 2019. Using only the information provided, which of the following statements is most accurate?

a. Liabilities increased by $1.0 million in 2018
b. Liabilities increased by $3.0 million in 2018
c. Assets decreased by $5.0 million in 2018
d. Retained earnings decreased by $10.0 million in 2018
e. Retained earnings decreased by $7.0 million in 2018

Answers

Answer: a. Liabilities increased by $1.0 million in 2018

Explanation:

In 2018, $9 million was used to settle the wage debt of 2017 and the remainder was used to settle the wages in 2018.

The money remaining in cash after the wage settlement was:

= 9,000,000 - 2,000,000 - 8,000,000

= -$1,000,000

This means that $1,000,000 of wages was not settled in 2018 which means that this would have to go to the Wages Payable account to signify that the company owes wages.

This account is a liability account so liabilities in 2018 would increase by $1,000,000.

If Wolves Entertainment Company is acting in the best interests of stockholders (following the primary goal of the firm), which of the following is the optimal (best) capital structure for the firm?

Answers

Answer: D. Debt = 60%, Equity = 40%, EPS = $3.18, Stock price = $31.20, Cost of Debt = 4.0%.

Explanation:

Since the company is acting in the best interests of stockholders the optimal capital structure for the firm will be option D "Debt = 60%, Equity = 40%, EPS = $3.18, Stock price = $31.20, Cost of Debt = 4.0%".

In this case, the price is at maximum when compared to other options, therefore the value of the shareholders will be maximize.

A bond pays $80 per year in interest and has a $1,000 par value. The market rate of interest is 6%. What is the coupon rate for this bond

Answers

Answer:

8%

Explanation:

The coupon is the amount of periodic cash payable to bondholders which is usually a percentage of the bond's face value.

The coupon of $80 is payable annually in this case, hence, based on the face value( par value) of $1,000 per bond, the coupon rate is computed as shown thus:

annual coupon=face value*coupon rate

annual coupon=$80

face value=$1000

coupon rate=unknown

$80=$1000*coupon rate

coupon rate=$80/$1000

coupon rate=8%

Andy is driving a 20-year-old boat that he borrowed from a friend. While he's on the water, the steering system fails and the boat crashes. Subsequent investigation shows that the steering system failed as a result of corrosion. Andy sues the boat manufacturer for negligence. How strong is his negligence case against the product manufacturer

Answers

Answer:

Weak.

Explanation:

In the given scenario, the case is weak because Andy cannot sue the manufacturer company for negligence.

it is because Andy is driving a 20-year-old boat. So, Andy cannot prove that the corrosion was due to manufacturing defect. The possibility of corrosion must be the wearing or tearing away of the boat.

Normally, material corrodes if not taken care of properly or due to a long lifespan.

Therefore, the case of Andy against the product manufacturer is weak.

Hau Lee Furniture, Inc., spends 50% of its sales dollars in the supply chain and finds its current profit of $21,000 inadequate. The bank is insisting on an improved profit picture prior to approval of a loan for some new equipment. Hau would like to improve the profit line to $26,000 so he can obtain the bank's approval for the loan. What percentage improvement is needed in the supply chain strategy for profit to improve to $26000

Answers

Answer: 7.1%

Explanation:

The cost of materials needs to reduce for the profit to increase. If the profit is to go from $21,000 to $26,000, the material cost would need to decrease by:

= 26,000 - 21,000

= $5,000

The current material cost is $70,000 so a decrease of $5,000 in percentage terms would be:

= 5,000 / 70,000 * 100%

= 7.1%

The new material cost would be:

= 70,000 - 5,000

= $65,000

Required:
What is the current price per share of the stock?

Answers

Answer:

$53.09

Explanation:

Calculation to determine current price per share of the stock

First step is to determine the Dividend per share in Year 1

Using this formula

Dividend per share in Year 1 = Cash flow generated next year / Number of shares

Let plug in the formula

Dividend per share in Year 1 == $450,000 / 20,000

Dividend per share in Year 1 == $ 22.5

Second step is to determine the Dividend per share in Year 2 using this formula

Dividend per share in Year 2 = Cash flow generated in two years / Number of shares

Let plug in the formula

Dividend per share in Year 2 = $790,000 / 20,000

Dividend per share in Year 2 = $39.5

Dividend per share in Year 2 =$40 Approximately

Now let determine the Share price today using this formula

Share price today = [ Dividend in Year 1 / (1 + Required rate of return) ] + [ Dividend in Year 2 / (1 + Required rate of return)2 ]

Let plug in the formula

Share price today = [22.5 /(1+.12)]+ (40 / 1.12^2

Share price today = (22.5 /1.12) + (40 / 1.12^2)

Share price today =$20.09+(40/1.25)

Share price today =$20.09+32

Share price today = $ 53.09

Therefore current price per share of the stock

Is $53.09

How much income from self-employment did Samuel earn from STU

Answers

Answer:

$220,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine How much income from self-employment did Samuel earn from STU

Using this formula

Income from self-employment =Guaranteed payment received+(Interest rate*Ordinary income)

Let plug in the formula

Income from self-employment=$120,000+(25%*$400,000)

Income from self-employment=$120,000+$100,000

Income from self-employment=$220,000

Therefore the amount of income from self-employment that Samuel earn from STU is $220,000

Singh, a consumer, leases sheet music from Tunes Inc. for a public performance. United Music Corporation, which holds a copyright on the music, sues Singh to stop the performance without a royalty payment. Singh fails to notify Tunes of the suit within a reasonable time. The lessee:_________
a. loses any remedy against the lessor for liability established in the suit.
b. can assert this failure to delay the litigation, but it is not a defense.
c. can raise the failure to notify as a defense in copyright holder’s suit.
d. can sue the lessor to recover the expenses of the suit.

Answers

Answer:

a. loses any remedy against the lessor for liability established in the suit.

Explanation:

This is because it was lessee's responsibility to inform the lessor in time.

A lessee is in contract with the lessor and is responsible for all the actions taken on behalf of the lessor with the lessor's permission.

If the lessee fails to inform the lessor in time or do any action without his permission then the lessor can sue the lessee or take any other legal action as may be required by the law against the lessee.

In breach of contract the lessee has to face the consequences and pay penalty.

Choice a is the best option.

The lessee can never sue the lessor for his illegal actions.

So option d is incorrect.

b) Delaying the litigation would do no good. It would add to his failures.

Choice c is also incorrect.

c. The proceeds of the bond were less than the face value
d. The company credited Cash
e. The coupon rate is greater than the effective rate

Answers

Answer:

a. The company debited Interest Expense  d. The company credited Cash

Explanation:

The coupon payment represents the interest payment being paid by the company on the bond. They will therefore record this coupon by debiting it to the Interest expense account as expenses are debited when they are incurred.

The same amount will be credited to the Cash account because the payment will come from the cash holdings of the company. Cash is an asset account so it is credited when it reduces.

2. The materials cost variance report for Nickols Inc. indicates a large favorable materials price variance and a significant unfavorable materials quantity variance. What might have caused these offsetting variances?

Answers

Answer:

A favorable materials price variance is caused by the amount budgeted for material prices (standard price) being higher than the actual price of the materials. This can happen as a result of increased supply of materials in the market.

An unfavorable materials quantity variance arises when the actual amount of materials used surpasses the amount of materials that was budgeted (standard materials). This can happen due to wastage and inefficiency.

These two cancel each other out because the extra material that is to be used will be acquired at the surplus price that standard price exceeds actual price by.
