Rockwood Industries has 100 million shares outstanding, a current share price of $25, and no debt. Rockwood's management believes that the shares are under-priced, and that the true value is $30 per share. Rockwood plans to pay $250 million in cash to its shareholders by repurchasing shares. Management expects that very soon new information will come out that will cause investors to revise their opinion of the firm and agree with Rockwood's assessment of the firm's true value. Assume that Rockwood is not able to repurchase shares prior to the market becoming aware of the new information regarding Rockwood's true value. If Rockwood repurchases the shares following the release of the new information, then the number of shares outstanding following the repurchase is closest to:_______
A. $30.00
B. $31.50
C. 28.75
D. $30.60

Answers

Answer:

D. $30.60

Explanation:

A step by step approach is provided below to determine the shares value after repurchase.

Number of Shares Repurchased = $250 million / $25 per share

Number of Shares Repurchased = 10 million shares

The total number of shares outstanding after repurchase are 90 Million (100 million - 10 million).

Value of the firm before repurchase = $30 x 100 million shares = $3,000 million

Value of the firm after repurchase = $3,000 million - $250 million = $2,750 million

Price per share after repurchase = $2,750 million / 90 million shares = $30.56 per share

The company is now using only 70% of its normal capacity; it could fully use its normal capacity by processing the assembly further and selling it for $51 per unit. If the company does this, material and labor costs will each increase by $2 per unit and variable overhead will go up by $1 per unit. Fixed costs will increase from the current level of $160,000 to $225,000.

Prepare an analysis showing whether Jensen should process the assemblies further.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The preparation of the analysis shows whether the assemblies should process further or not is presented below:

Differential revenue  (38,000 units × ($51 - $44)) $266,000

Differential costs:  

Direct material (38,000units × $2 per unit) ($76,000)

Direct labor (38,000units × $2 per unit) ($76,000)

Variable overhead (38,000units × $1 per unit) ($38,000)

Fixed costs ($160,000  - $225,000) ($65,000)

Additional income (loss) from processing further $11,000

Since the amount comes in positive so it should be processed further

Carla McFarland was an associate professor of English literature at Highland College. She was the only single person in her department. Consequently, she was frequently assigned classes late in the evening, on weekends, and during the summer semester. She was also called upon to pick up visiting professors and serve as their escort and guide during their stays at the college. She received extra duty as adviser to the The Highland Review, the college’s literary magazine. When McFarland complained about the unequal treatment, she was told that the married professors had family responsibilities that she did not have, which took up much of their time and prevented them from having the flexibility that she had. Thus, she would continue to carry the extra load. McFarland filed a complaint with the EEOC.

Can discrimination based on an employee’s status as a single person be considered unlawful under the Civil Rights Act? Explain. Is this a case of disparate impact or disparate treatment? Explain.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The case shown above is an example of discrimination by civil status, however it is not an example of violation of the civil rights law, as it is not prohibited by the Civil Rights Act of 1964. However, some states have their own legislation that prevents this type of discrimination, which makes it a violation of state laws, which can lead the offender to be severely punished.

This is an example of case of disparate treatment, as we can see that there is discriminatory treatment with an employee, where she is treated differently compared to other employees because of a characteristic of her personal life.

This would be a case of disparate impact if there were a group of protected and privileged employees at the expense of the exploitation of other employees.

On November 1, Year One, a company is paid $12,000 in advance to do a job for a customer. The job has ten separate steps. The first four steps were completed in Year One and the remaining six steps were completed in Year Two. The accountant mistakenly believed that this was just one big job and recorded it in that fashion. However, each of the ten steps was really an individual job and should have been accounted for in that way. Which of the following statements is true?

a. At the end of Year One, the company's liabilities are understated.
b. At the end of Year Two, the company's assets are overstated.
c. At the end of Year Two, the company's retained earnings are overstated.
d. At the end of Year One, the company's retained earnings are understated.
e. At the end of Year Two, the company's net income is understated.

Answers

Answer: a. At the end of Year One, the company's liabilities are understated.

Explanation:

Under the Accrual basis of Accounting, revenue should be recorded for only jobs that have been completed. In other words, only earned revenue should be recorded. Revenue that has not been earned but yet received, is to be termed Deferred revenue and should be treated as a current liability.

In this scenario, there are steps that have not been completed so some of the revenue received should be termed deferred revenue. These should therefore be in current liabilities and because they were not, the liabilities for the end of year 1 will be understated.

Looking back over the last ten years or so, what was changed in your workplace? What do you think will happen next in your work place 5 years from now?​

Answers

As 2020 draws near, it’s hard not to reflect on the past decade- so much has changed in the 10 years that flew by. In 2010, those who even had a smartphone were carrying around an iPhone 4 or a BlackBerry OS 6.0 version.

While the illustrious BlackBerry has all but disappeared from the workplace of 2019, there has been plenty of technologies in its wake to replace it. Let’s take a look at how the workplace has changed, communication tools and otherwise, in the past decade.

1. Collaboration over competition

“So many things have happened in the last decade that have really accelerated this change from competition to collaboration,” said Ann Shoket, workplace thought leader and former Editor-In-Chief of Seventeen Magazine.

“So first of all this old idea that there was room at the table for one woman, and you would fight tooth or nail for that spot, so obviously there was a lot of competition, particularly among women.

“Then the next generation, Millennial women, came in and made more room at the table and brought their friends along with them. That was the shift toward collaboration.”

2. It’s an employee market, not an employer market  

“Reflecting back on 2010 and what the economic circumstances were versus where we are at today, the competition for talent was very different in 2010 than as we enter 2020,” said Rhiannon Staples, the Chief Marketing Officer at Hibob.

Low unemployment rates today mean that job seekers have more options, and employees have more leverage in terms of what they can expect of their company due to the competition for top talent.

“It really is on businesses to help develop an environment, a culture, and perks that really draw the best talent in the market,” Staples said. “That’s really very different from where we were just 10 years ago.”

3. Push towards a more remote workforce

Anyone in the workforce 10 years ago won’t be shocked that the change in when and where we work made this list. Whereas in the past remote work was reserved for special situations,  that kind of idea is now replaced by a lot more freedom of where you work and when you work, and that’s not just people who are entrepreneurs. This idea is something that everybody wants out of work, to have a more flexible time frame to be free from the office. This idea of freedom is such an important piece of where we are going at work.

“That kind of idea is now replaced by a lot more freedom of where you work and when you work, and that’s not just people who are entrepreneurs,” Shoket said. “This idea is something that everybody wants out of work, to have a more flexible time frame to be free from the office. This idea of freedom is such an important piece of where we are going at work.”

Fore Farms reported a pretax operating loss of $210 million for financial reporting purposes in 2021. Contributing to the loss were (a) a penalty of $10 million assessed by the Environmental Protection Agency for violation of a federal law and paid in 2021 and (b) an estimated loss of $20 million from accruing a loss contingency. The loss will be tax deductible when paid in 2022. The enacted tax rate is 25%. There were no temporary differences at the beginning of the year and none originating in 2021 other than those described above. Required: 1. Prepare the journal entry to recognize the income tax benefit of the net operating loss in 2021. 2. What is the net operating loss reported in 2021 income statement

Credit Loss Carryforward Relief $180 million

To record the income tax benefit of the net operating loss.

2. The net operating loss reported in 2021 income statement is $180 million.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Enacted tax rate = 25%

2021 Reported pretax operating loss = $210 million

Less:

Penalty for EPA violation =                          10 million

Loss contingency accrued

(temporary difference) =                            20 million

Net pretax operating loss =                    $180 million

b) The net operating loss (NOL) suffered by Fore Farms, after adjusting non-allowable penalty for EPA violation and temporary differences, will be used to offset the company's tax payments in subsequent tax periods.  This is an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) tax provision called a "loss carryforward."  It allows some tax relief to Fore Farms for losing money in 2021.

Corazon Company purchased an asset with a list price of $14,000. Corazon paid $500 of transportation in cost, $800 to train an employee to operate the equipment, and $200 to insure the asset against theft after it has been setup in the factory. The asset was purchased under terms 1/20/n30 and Corazon paid for the asset within the discount period. Based on this information, Corazon would capitalize the asset on its books at:_______
a. $14,000.
b. $14,660.
c. $15,160.
d. $14,800.

Answers

Answer:

c. $15,160.

Explanation:

The computation of the amount that should be capitalized is shown below:

= Purchase price + transportation + training cost - discount

= $14,000 + $500 + $800  - 1% of $14,000

= $14,000 + $500 + $800 - $140

= $15,160

Hence, the  amount that should be capitalized is $15,160

Therefore the option c is correct

(FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, and PVA of $1) (Use the appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)
How much additional money should she deposit now to provide her with $1,003,500 when she retires? (Round your answer to nearest whole dollar.)

Answers

Answer:

x = $240759.82559797761 rounded off to $240.759.83

Explanation:

To calculate the additional amount that is required to be invested today, we will use the formula for Future value of a cash flow.

FV = PV * (1+r)^t

Where,

FV and PV are future value and present value respectivelyr is the interest rate or rate of returnt is the time period

We know the Future value that is the sum required and we know the r which is 8% and t which is 8 years. We know the partial PV which is 301400 and we need to calculate the other part of PV. Thus we can say that PV = 301400 + x

Solving the equation for x where x is the additional money that should be deposited today.

1003500 = (301400 + x)  *  (1+0.08)^8

1003500 / (1+0.08)^8  = (301400 + x)

542159.8255977329 = 301400 + x

542159.8255977329  -  301400  =  x  

x = $240759.82559797761 rounded off to $240.759.83

The current price of the Volkswagen ADR (VWAGY) is 35.50. You purchase 50 shares on margin. You finance half of the purchase yourself and borrow the other half from your broker at an annual interest rate of 6.0%. Assume that the ADR pays an annual dividend of 0.56 per share. If the price in one year is 42, what is the return on your investment (keep in mind that you need to pay interest on the loan)

Answers

Answer:

33.77%

Explanation:

In one year, you are going to receive ($42 x 100) + ($0.56 x 100) = $4,256

you must return ($35.50 x 50) = $1,775

plus interests = $1,775 x 6% = $106.50

total return = $4,256 - $1,775 - $106.50 = $2,374.50

During the middle years of last decade, the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar has declined against the currencies of its major trading partners. You would expect this to result in a corresponding increase in U.S. dollar denominated import prices from those trading partners. U.S. dollar import prices, however, often rise less than the increase in the currency value of the exporter. Why

Answers

Answer:

Because there are other factors that influence the weakening or strengthening of the dollar, not just the dollar exchange rate in relation to the exchange rates of other countries' currencies.

Explanation:

Although the United States has registered increases in the trade deficit, that is, when the country imports more goods and services from abroad than it exports, there are other factors that determine whether the country's currency is valued or not. In the case of the dollar, its value has not decreased despite the fall in the exchange rate of the dollar in relation to the currencies of its main trading partners due to the fact that the dollar is the main reserve currency in the world, which means that the dollar is the fashion of commercial transaction in the world, therefore its value is not lost in relation to other currencies, since several important transactions in the world such as gold and oil commodities are traded in dollars.

There is also the fact that the US attracts a lot of international investment for US Treasury bills, which helps to strengthen the dollar.

Required:
Prepare a factory overhead cost budget, separating variable and fixed costs.

Answers

Answer:

Fixed costs= $73,760

Variable cost= $159,430

Explanation:

First, let's separate the factory overhead costs:

Power and light 40,450

Factory insurance 23,560

Production supervisor wages 118,980

Production control wages 30,930

Factory depreciation 19,270

Now, the fixed and variable costs:

Fixed costs= Factory insurance 23,560  + Production control wages 30,930 + Factory depreciation 19,270

Fixed costs= $73,760

Variable cost= Power and light 40,450 + Production supervisor wages 118,980

Variable cost= $159,430

1-b. In present value terms, which offer is clearly a better deal?
a. Option a
b. Option b
c. The present values of the options are nearly the same

Answers

Answer:

1-a.

in order to determine the present value of option a we can look for the PVIFA (annuity factor) for 24% / 12 = 2% monthly rate and 25 payments.

PVIFA = 19.523

Present value of the 25 payments = $540 x 19.523 = $10,542.42

+

Present value of final payment = $10,000 / (1 + 24%)²⁵/¹² = $6,388.10

PV = $16,930.52

Present value of option b = $16,638

1-b.

b. option b (lower present value)

Nicholas is the production manager for a manufacturing firm. He has two supervisors who are experiencing conflict with each other based upon personality differences. Nicholas should have held a meeting last week to discuss next year's budget, but cancelled it because the two supervisors had a verbal confrontation on the shop floor the previous day. What conflict handling style is Nicholas demonstrating

Answers

Answer:

Avoidance

Explanation:

It is only useful when facing trivial/temporary issues, no chance to get what you want, when others can, when people need to cool down/get more information etc. But it usually makes other people perceive you as uncaring and a conflict simmers.
