Answer:
Future value = $5912.87
Explanation:
Below is the calculation:
Interest rate = 4.7%
Present value of deposit = $4750
Time period, n = 5 years
Future value = Present value ( 1 + interest rate)^n
Future value = 4750 ( 1 + (4.7%/365)^5*365
Future value = 4750 (1 + 0.00012)^1825
Future value = $5912.87
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?
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.

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
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%.

Principles-based standards differ from a rules-based approach because: Principles-based standards rely on bright-line concepts to apply accounting standards Rules-based standards rely on bright-line rules to apply accounting standards Principles-based standards set uniform goals for the application of accounting standards Rules-based standards form the basis of IFRS
Answer: Principles-based standards set uniform goals for the application of accounting standards
Explanation:
Rule based standards are quite rigid and as a result, set specific goals when it comes to the application of accounting standards. This is in contrast to Principles based standards that set more uniform or general goals that should be met.
This is why IFRS is preferred by most nations in the world as opposed to U.S. GAAP. IFRS gives principle based standards which allow leeway unlike U.S. GAAP which is rules based and gives little leeway in application.

A. Debt = 50%, Equity = 50%, EPS = $3.05, Stock price = $29.90, Cost of Debt = 3.5%.B. Debt = 80%, Equity = 20%, EPS = $3.28, Stock price = $29.70, Cost of Debt = 5.8%.C. Debt = 40%, Equity = 60%, EPS = $2.95, Stock price = $30.50, Cost of Debt = 3.0%.D. Debt = 60%, Equity = 40%, EPS = $3.18, Stock price = $31.20, Cost of Debt = 4.0%.E. Debt = 70%, Equity = 30%, EPS = $3.42, Stock price = $30.40, Cost of Debt = 5.0%.
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.
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
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.

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
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%
Please answer the question posted in the attached image
Answer:
80
Explanation:
Years = 20
Compounding month = 4 (quarterly)
N is the number of compounding factors = 20 years * 4 periods per year = 80. So, the value of n in the F/A factor (for determining F/A factor the end of the 20 year period) is 80.
A comparable property sold 17 months ago for $115,000. If the appropriate adjustment for market conditions is 0.30% per month (without compounding), what would be the adjusted price of the comparable property
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Without compounding, the adjusted price of the comparable property is
= $115,000 × (1+ (0.003 × 17))
= $115,000 × 1.051
= $120,865
And,
With compounding:
= $115,000 × (1.003)^10
= $115,000 × 1.030408
= $118,496.92
In this way it should be calculated

On 6/30/12, a company recorded a journal entry for the coupon payment on its bond. As part of the journal entry, the company debited bonds payable. Which of the following is true regarding this journal entry?
a. The company debited Interest Expense
b. The bond was issued at a discount
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
Answer:
a. The company debited Interest Expense d. The company credited CashExplanation:
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.
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.
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.

Carr Inc. purchased equipment for $100,000 on January 1, Year 1. The equipment had an estimated 10-year useful life and a $15,000 salvage value. Carr uses the 200 percent declining balance depreciation method. In its Year 2 income statement, what amount should Carr report as depreciation expense for the equipment
Answer:
$16,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what amount should Carr report as depreciation expense for the equipment
First step is to calculate Depreciation under Double declining Balance method
Depreciation under DDB = 2/10 x $100,000
Depreciation under DDB =$ 20,000
Now let calculate what amount should Carr report as depreciation expense for the equipment
Depreciation expense=2/10 *($100,000-$20,000)
Depreciation expense=2/10*$80,000
Depreciation expense= $16,000
Therefore what amount should Carr report as depreciation expense for the equipment is $16,000
