Answer:
D. "Great brands do more than just get attention, they make emotional connections."
Explanation:
In the given scenario the aim of Manuel Margolis was to catch attention of clients aged 18 - 35 years. However Kia Chin developed campaign is based on the slogan "Do What You Do in a Shadowleaf Shoe." Visuals depict men’s legs—different sizes, skin colors, etc.—walking, jogging, dancing, and otherwise moving in every type of Shadowleaf’s shoes. After running the ads, the Excellent Agency wins an advertising effectiveness award.
This initiative created an emotional connection with the customer where the visuals attracted them and the comfort of Shadowleaf shoes made them loyal customers.
So the best statement Kia Chin can tell Manuel is "Great brands do more than just get attention, they make emotional connections."

Round your answer to three decimal places. Do not round intermediate calculations.__________ %
CALCULATION PART
what nominal interest rate will they charge their customers?
Effective annual rate= (1+nominal rate/n)^n -1)
n= compounding period
Effective annual rate=[(1+0.06/2)^2 -1]
[(1+0.06/2)^2 -1]
= (1+0.03)^2 -1
=1.0609-1
=0.0609
= 6.09%
They will charge it 6.09%
There are four quarter in a year which means n=4
Let the nominal rate = x
Using the effective annual rate formula
0.0609=[ (1+x/4)^4 -1]
0.0609+1= (1+x/4)^4
(1.0609)^1/4 = 1+x/4
1.01489= 1+x/4
1.01489-1= x/4
x= 0.01489×4
x= 0.05956×100
x= 5.956%
Hence, effective annual rate for the both banks is 6.09%
While nominal annual rate for bank2 is 5.956%

Explanation:
Gold Company was experiencing financial difficulties, but was not bankrupt or insolvent. The National Bank, which held a mortgage on other real estate owned by Gold, reduced the principal from $110,000 to $85,000. The bank had made the loan to Gold when it purchased the real estate from Silver, Inc. Pink, Inc., the holder of a mortgage on Gold’s building, agreed to accept $40,000 in full payment of the $55,000 due. Pink had sold the building to Gold for $150,000 that was to be paid in installments over 8 years. As a result of the above, Gold must:____________
a. Include $40,000 in gross income.
b. Reduce the basis in its assets by $40,000.
c. Include $25,000 in gross income and reduce its basis in its assets by $15,000.
d. Include $15,000 in gross income and reduce its basis in the building by $25,000.
e. None of these.
Answer:
c. Include $25,000 in gross income and reduce its basis in its assets by $15,000.
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Decrease by Bank
= $110000 - $85000
= $25,000
The same amount i.e. $25,000 would be involved in the gross income
And, the reduction in mortgage is
= $55000 - $40000
= $15,000
It redued the building or assets basis
hence, the correct option is c. and the same is to be considered
Pilot plus Pens is deciding when to replace its old machine. The old machine’s current salvage value is $2 million. Its current book value is $1 million. If not sold, the old machine will require maintenance costs of $400,000 at the end of the year, for the next five years. Depreciation on the old machine is $200,000 per year. At the end of five years, the old machine will have salvage value of $200,000 and a book value of $0. A replacement machine costs $3 million now and requires maintenance costs of $500,000 at the end of each year during its economic life of five years. At the end of five years, the new machine will have a salvage value of $500,000. It will be fully depreciated by the straight-line method. In five years, a replacement machine will cost $3,500,000. Pilot will need to purchase this machine regardless of what the choice it makes today. The corporate tax rate is 34% and the appropriate discount rate is 12%. The company is assumed to earn sufficient revenues to generate tax shields from depreciation. Should Pilot Plus replace the old machine now or at the end of five years? no excel and financial calculator, so please show the answer by hand written and how u get to the numbers
The company should replace the machinery now as the NPV of old machine is very less as compared to new machine.

Ruiz Co. provides the following sales forecast for the next four months:
April May June July
Sales (units) 560 640 590 680
The company wants to end each month with ending finished goods inventory equal to 30% of next month's forecasted sales. Finished goods inventory on April 1 is 168 units. Assume July's budgeted production is 590 units. In addition, each finished unit requires six pounds (lbs.) of raw materials and the company wants to end each month with raw materials inventory equal to 30% of next month’s production needs. Beginning raw materials inventory for April was 1,051 pounds. Assume direct materials cost $4 per pound.
Required:
Prepare a direct materials budget for April, May, and June.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
We need to calculate the production required for each month:
Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
April= 560 + (640*0.3) - 168= 584
May= 640 + (590*0.3) - 192= 625
June= 590 + 680*0.3 - 177= 617
Now, we can prepare the direct material budget:
Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
April (pounds):
Production= 584*6= 3,504
Desired ending inventory= (625*6)*0.3= 1,125
Beginning inventory= (1,051)
Total pounds= 3,578
Total cost= 3,578*4= $14,312
May (pounds):
Production= 625*6= 3,750
Desired ending inventory= (617*6)*0.3= 1,110.6
Beginning inventory= (1,125)
Total pounds= 3,735.6
Total cost= 3,735.6*4= $14,942.4
June:
Production= 617*6= 3,702
Desired ending inventory= (590*6)*0.3= 1,062
Beginning inventory= (1,110.6)
Total pounds= 3,653.4
Total cost= 3,653.4*4= $14,613.6

What is the WACC for the company?
Answer:
11,73 %
Explanation:
WACC = Ke × (E/V) + Kd × (D/V) + Kp × (E/V)
Ke = Cost of Equity
= Return on Risk Free Security + Beta × Risk Premium
= 3.5 % + 1.20 × 6.9 %
= 11.78 %
E/V = Weight of Equity
= (2,300,000 × $92) ÷ (2,300,000 × $92 + 60,000 × $106.10 + 18,900 × $21.60 + 155,000 × $84)
= 0.91
Kd = Cost of Debt
Debt : 60,000 bonds
Pv = ($106.10)
Pmt = (5.10% × $1,000) ÷ 2 = $25.50
n = 15 × 2 = 30
Fv = $1,000
P/yr = 2
i = ?
Pre-tax cost = 48.66 %
After tax cost = 0.75 × 48.66 %
= 36.50%
DV = Weight of Debt
= (60,000 × $106.10) ÷ (2,300,000 × $92 + 60,000 × $106.10 + 18,900 × $21.60 + 155,000 × $84)
= 0.03
Debt : 18,900 zero coupon bonds
Pv = ($21.60)
Pmt = $0
n = 27 × 2 = 54
Fv = $10,000
P/yr = 2
i = ?
Pre-tax cost = 24,07 %
After tax cost = 0.75 × 24,07 %
= 18.05%
DV = Weight of Debt
= (18,900 × $21.60) ÷ (2,300,000 × $92 + 60,000 × $106.10 + 18,900 × $21.60 + 155,000 × $84)
= 0.002
Kp = Cost of Preference Share
Market Rate = (Return × Par Value) ÷ Current Price
= (2.90 % × $100) ÷ $84
= 0.03 %
P/V = Weight of Preference Shares
= (155,000 × $84) ÷ (2,300,000 × $92 + 60,000 × $106.10 + 18,900 × $21.60 + 155,000 × $84)
= 0.06
WACC = 11.78 % × 0.91 + 36.50% × 0.03 + 18.05% × 0.002 + 0.03 % × 0.06
= 11,73 %
Which idea forms the basis of double-entry accounting?
A. For every single transaction, at least two accounts will be
affected.
B. For every single transaction, only assets will be impacted.
C. The assets of a business equal the stockholders' equity.
O D. The stockholders' equity in a business must equal the liabilities.
Answer:
A. For every single transaction, at least two accounts will be
affected.
Explanation:
Double-entry accounting is a record-keeping method where a transaction is recorded in a minimum of two accounts. There is no upper ceiling on the actual number of accounts that may be used in a transaction.
Every account has two columns, with debits on the left and credit entries on the right. The aggregate of the debit entries must equal the result of all credit entries. If this happens, the transaction has balanced. If not, the transaction is "out of balance."

The mean value of land and buildings per acre from a sample of farms is $1400, with a standard deviation of $200. The data set has a bell-shaped distribution. Assume the number of farms in the sample is 74.
(a) Use the empirical rule to estimate the number of farms whose land and building values per acre are between $1200 and $1600.
(b) If 29 additional farms were sampled, about how many of these additional farms would you expect to have land and building values between $1200 per acre and $1600 per acre?
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
The Empirical Rule (or 3 sigma rule) states that for a normal distribution (bell shaped distribution) 68% of the data falls within one standard deviation (μ ± σ), 95% percent within two standard deviations (μ ± 2σ), and 99.7% within three standard deviations from the mean (μ ± 3σ).
Given that the mean (μ) = $1400, standard deviation (σ) = $200
a) The percentage of data within one standard deviation = μ ± σ = (1400 ± 200) = (1200, 1600)
Hence 68% of the land are between $1200 and $1600.
Number of farms = 68% × number of sample = 0.68 × 74 = 50.23 ≈ 51 farms
b) For an additional 29 farms, the number of additional farms between $1200 per acre and $1600 per acre = 29 × 0.68 ≈ 20 farms
a)The land is between $1200 and $1600. The number of farms is 51, b. The number of additional farms between $1200 per acre and $1600 per acre is 20 farms.
According to the Empirical Rule (or 3 sigma rule), for a normal distribution (bell shaped distribution), 68% of the data falls within one standard deviation (ut o), 95% fall within two standard deviations (u 20), and 99.7% fall within three standard deviations (+30). Given that the mean () is $1400 and the standard deviation () is $200,
a) The percentage of data within one standard deviation=uo=(1400+ 200) (1200, 1600)
Hence 68% of the land are between $1200 and $1600. Number of farms- 68% x number of sample - 0.68 74 50.23 51 farms
b) For an additional 29 farms, the number of additional farms between $1200 per acre and $1600 per acre- 29 x 0.68 = 20 farms.

Brace Corporation uses direct labor-hours in its predetermined overhead rate. At the beginning of the year, the estimated direct labor-hours were 21,600 hours. At the end of the year, actual direct labor-hours for the year were 20,400 hours, the actual manufacturing overhead for the year was $506,920, and manufacturing overhead for the year was underapplied by $23,440. The estimated manufacturing overhead at the beginning of the year used in the predetermined overhead rate must have been:_________
A. $501,920
B. $531,445
C. $483,480
D. $511,920
Answer:
D. $511,920
Explanation:
For determining the estimated manufaturing overhead first determined the predetermined overhead which is shown below:
= (Actual manufacturing overhead - underapplied overhead) ÷ (actual direct labor hours)
= ($506,920 - $23,440) ÷ (20,400 hours)
= $23.7
Now the estimated manufacturing overhead is
= $23.7 × 21,600 hours
= $511,920

You want to buy a house that costs $140,000. You have $14,000 for a down payment, but your credit is such that mortgage companies will not lend you the required $126,000. However, the realtor persuades the seller to take a $126,000 mortgage (called a seller take-back mortgage) at a rate of 5%, provided the loan is paid off in full in 3 years. You expect to inherit $140,000 in 3 years, but right now all you have is $14,000, and you can afford to make payments of no more than $22,000 per year given your salary. (The loan would call for monthly payments, but assume end-of-year annual payments to simplify things.)
Required:
a. If the loan was amortized over 3 years, how large would each annual payment be? Could you afford those payments?
b. If the loan was amortized over 30 years, what would each payment be? Could you afford those payments?
c. To satisfy the seller, the 30-year mortgage loan would be written as a balloon note, which means that at the end of the third year, you would have to make the regular payment plus the remaining balance on the loan. What would the loan balance be at the end of Year 3, and what would the balloon payment be?
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Explanation:
Given the following :
Cost of house = $140,000
Down payment = $14000
Take back mortgage = 126000 = PV
Rate (r) = 5%
Yearly payment one can afford = 22000
a. If the loan was amortized over 3 years, how large would each annual payment be? Could you afford those payments?
Number of period = 3
Using the relation:
PMT = r(PV) / 1 - (1 + r)^-n
PMT = 0.05(126000) / 1 - 1.05^-3
PMT = 6300 / (1-0.8638375)
PMT = 46,268.23
He won't be able to afford it, as the monthly payment is larger than the affordable amount of $22000
b. If the loan was amortized over 30 years, what would each payment be? Could you afford those payments?
PMT = r(PV) / 1 - (1 + r)^-n
PMT = 0.05(126000) / 1 - 1.05^-30
PMT = 6300 / (1-0.2313774)
PMT = 8196.48
He would be able to afford it, as the monthly payment is lower than the affordable amount of $22000
c. To satisfy the seller, the 30-year mortgage loan would be written as a balloon note, which means that at the end of the third year, you would have to make the regular payment plus the remaining balance on the loan. What would the loan balance be at the end of Year 3, and what would the balloon payment be?
Present value of remaining balance after the 3rd year:
Present Value (PV) = PMT[(1 - (1 + r)^-n) / r]
Where
PMT = periodic payment = 8196.48
r = Interest rate = 5% = 0.05
n = number of periods = 30 - 3 = 27
PV = 8196.48[(1 - (1 + 0.05)^-27) / 0.05]
PV = 8196.48[(1 - (1. 05)^-27) / 0.05]
PV = 8196.48[0.7321516 / 0.05]
PV = 120,021.32
Balloon payment :
120,021.32 + 8196.48 = 128,217.80
a. The annual payment if the Mortgage was amortized over three years is $45,315.96 (Interest + Principal)
The Mortgage payments are not affordable because his affordability funds are limited to $22,000 annually.

b. The annual payment if the Mortgage was amortized over thirty years is $8,116.80 (Interest + Principal)
The Mortgage payments are now affordable with his affordability amount of $22,000 per year.
Annual Amortization Schedule for the first three years:
Beginning Balance Interest Principal Ending Balance
1 $126,000.00 $6,257.79 $1,859.01 $124,141.04
2 $124,141.04 $6,162.68 $1,954.12 $122,186.97
3 $122,186.97 $6,062.70 $2,054.10 $120,132.93
c. Payments made by the end of the third year were $5,867.07 with a balance of $120,132.93.
Data and Calculations:
Cost of house = $140,000
Down payment = $14,000
Mortgage value = $126,000($140,000 - $14,000)
Mortgage interest rate = 5%
Affordable annual payments = $22,000
Thus, the balloon payment is always based on an agreed percentage of the loan, which is not provided here.

An operation that closes due to an imminent health hazard can reopen only after getting approval from what agency?
Answer:
the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration)
Explanation:
The Food and Drug Administration is a federal agency, which is allowed under US law to prevent an operation from going on if it determines that an imminent health hazard still exists.
However, according to the FDA food code, "if immediate corrective action is taken, there is no "Imminent Health Hazard," meaning the operation can get approval from the agency to reopen.
Imminent Health Hazard means threat to life due to some product, procedure, events which need to stopped immediately. After FDA approval, operation can be restarted.
What do you mean by Imminent Health Hazard?FDA Food Code describes Imminent Health Hazard as the product, procedure, events that can posses threat or danger to life and requires immediate actions or suspension of action to prevent the loss.
The FDA(U.S. Food and Drug Administration) is the agency which looks after the Imminent Health Hazard. So when operations are ceased due to health hazard and after taking corrective measures and when no hazards are left, operations can be reopened after prior approval of FDA.
Therefore, it can be said that after FDA approval, operations can be started.

It offers two varieties of popcorn: plain and flavored. The flavors range from Caramel Popcorn to Dark Chocolate Drizzled Popcorn to White Cheddar Popcorn. The plain popcorn sells for per box and costs per box to make. The flavored popcorn sells for per box and costs per box to make. has fixed costs per month of . sells 1 box of plain popcorn for every 4 boxes of flavored popcorn. How many boxes of plain popcorn and how many boxes of flavored popcorn must sell each month to break even?
Answer:
The numbers are missing, so I looked for a similar question (see image):
first we must calculate the contribution margin:
plain popcorn = selling price - variable costs = $2 - $0.80 = $1.20
flavored popcorn = selling price - variable costs = $4 - $2.50 = $1.50
sales mix = 1 plain : 4 flavored
weighted contribution margin = [$1.20 + (4 x $1.50)] / 5 = $1.44
total fixed costs = $3,240
break even point in units = $3,240 / $1.44 = 2,250 units
the company must sell 2,250 x 1/5 = 450 plain popcorn boxes and 1,850 flavored popcorn boxes in order to break even

g Benton, Inc. has decided to discontinue manufacturing its Quantum model personal organizer. Currently the company has a number of partially completed personal organizers on hand. The company has spent $111 per unit to manufacture these organizers. To complete each unit, costs of $14 for material and $15 for direct labor will be incurred. In addition, $9 of variable overhead and $34 of allocated fixed overhead (relating primarily to depreciation of plant and equipment) will be added per unit. If Benton, Inc., completes the organizers, it can sell them for $124 per unit. Another manufacturer is interested in purchasing the partially completed organizers for $107 per unit and converting them into inventory tracking devices. Determine whether Benton should complete the personal organizers or sell them in their current state.
Answer:
Sell them in their current state
Explanation:
Ignore the cost already incurred ($111) since it is a sunk cost (already spent) and should not affect future decision.
1) The incremental cost of completing each unit = material cost ($14) + direct labour cost ($15) + variable overhead cost ($9) = $38 (allocated fixed cost was not included since it is a non-cash item)
With a sale price of $124, the profit per unit = $124 - $38 = $89.
2) Whereas, selling the partially completed unit will earn $107 (without any additional cost).
Since selling the partially completed unit earns higher incremental value than completing manufacture before sale, selling is the optimal decision.
Praveen Co. manufactures and markets a number of rope products. Management is considering the future of Product XT, a special rope for hang gliding, that has not been as profitable as planned. Since Product XT is manufactured and marketed independently of the other products, its total costs can be precisely measured. Next year’s plans call for a $210 selling price per 100 yards of XT rope. Its fixed costs for the year are expected to be $193,200, up to a maximum capacity of 550,000 yards of rope. Forecasted variable costs are $168 per 100 yards of XT rope.
