Aloma, a university graduate who started a successful business, wants to start an endowment in her name that will provide scholarships to CE students. She wants the scholarship to provide $11,000 per year and expects the first one to be awarded on the day she fulfills the endowment obligation. If Aloma plans to donate $250,000, what rate of return must the university realize in order to award the annual scholarship forever
Answer:
the rate of return is 4.60%
Explanation:
The computation of the rate of return is shown below;
= Scholarship provided per year ÷ (Expected donated amount - Scholarship provided per year)
= $11,000 ÷ ($250000 - $11,000)
= $11,000 ÷ $239,000
= 4.60%
Hence, the rate of return is 4.60%

Marigold Corp. enters into a contract with a customer to build an apartment building for $1,069,900. The customer hopes to rent apartments at the beginning of the school year and provides a performance bonus of $153,300 to be paid if the building is ready for rental beginning August 1, 2021. The bonus is reduced by $51,100 each week that completion is delayed. Marigold commonly includes these completion bonuses in its contracts and, based on prior experience, estimates the following completion outcomes: Completed by Probability August 1, 2021 70 % August 8, 2021 20 August 15, 2021 6 After August 15, 2021 4 Determine the transaction price for this contract.
Answer:
$1,193,562
Explanation:
Calculation to Determine the transaction price for this contract.
First step is to calculate the probabilities
Probabilities
August 1, 2021 =70 % *$153,300
August 1, 2021 =$107,310
August 8, 2021= 20%*$51,100
August 8, 2021= $10,220
August 15, 2021 =6%*$102,200
($153,300-$51,100)
August 15, 2021 =$6,132
After August 15, 2021= 4%*$0
After August 15, 2021= $0
Now let calculate the transaction price for this contract.
Total transaction price =$1,069,900+ $107,310+$10,220+$6,132+$0
Total transaction price =$1,193,562
Therefore the transaction price for this contract will be $1,193,562

Answer:
Answer is explained in the explanation section below.
Explanation:
First of all, this question is not complete and lacks the group of answer choices. However, I have found that question with complete options on the internet.
So,
The Correct option is: D
Option D = Not enough information
Reasoning:
For overestimated or underestimated or not full information required i.e. cost under traditional method and cost under activity based cost method , both information required for compare methods cost under each method.
Under Activity base costing all indirect cost is applied as per activities use by each product but under traditional method only one key factor use for applied overheads i.e. direct labor hours or machine hours etc.
Danks Corporation purchased a patent for $405,000 on September 1, 2019. It had a useful life of 10 years. On January 1, 2021, Danks spent $99,000 to successfully defend the patent in a lawsuit. Danks feels that as of that date, the remaining useful life is 5 years. What amount should be reported for patent amortization expense for 2021?
Answer:
Amortization Expense for year 2021 $90,000
Explanation:
The computation of the amount that should be reported for patent amortization for the year 2021 is shown below:
But before that following calculations need to be done
The value of the patent as of 31st Dec, 2020
Purchase Value as of Sep 1,2019 $405000
Less:- Amortization Expense for the year 2019 $13,500
($405000 ÷ 10 × 4 ÷ 12)
Less:- amortization expense for the year 2020 $40500 ($405,000 ÷ 10)
Value of patent as on 1st Jan, 2021 $351,000
Add:- fees to defend $99000
New Book Value for the year 2021 $450,000
Now Remaining Useful Life 5 years
So,
Amortization Expense for year 2021 $90,000 ($450,000 ÷ 5)

The Step Company has the following information for the year just ended: Budget Actual Sales in units 15,000 14,000 Sales $ 150,000 $ 147,000 Less: Variable Expenses 90,000 82,600 Contribution Margin $ 60,000 $ 64,400 Less: Fixed Expenses 35,000 40,000 Operating Income $ 25,000 $ 24,400 The Step Company's sales-price variance is: Multiple Choice $7,000 unfavorable. $7,500 unfavorable. $7,500 favorable. $7,000 favorable. $3,000 unfavorable.
Answer:
$7,000 Favourable
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what The Step Company's sales-price variance is:
Using this formula
Sales Price Variance = (Actual Sales Price – Budgeted Sales Price) * Actual Sales Volume
Let plug in the formula
Sales Price Variance=[($ 147,000÷14,000)-(150,000/15,000)]*14000
Sales Price Variance = ($10.5 – $10) * 14000
Sales Price Variance = $7,000 Favorable
Therefore The Step Company's sales-price variance is: $7,000 Favorable
The Step Company has the following information for the year just ended: Budget Actual Sales in units 15,000 14,000 Sales $ 150,000 $ 147,000 Less: Variable Expenses 90,000 82,600 Contribution Margin $ 60,000 $ 64,400 Less: Fixed Expenses 35,000 40,000 Operating Income $ 25,000 $

has 8.3 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current share price is $53, and the book value per share is $4. also has two bond issues outstanding. The first bond issue has a face value of $70 million and a coupon rate of 7 percent and sells for 108.3 percent of par. The second issue has a face value of $60 million and a coupon rate of 7.5 percent and sells for 108.9 percent of par. The first issue matures in 8 years, the second in 27 years. (a) What are capital structure weights on a book value basis
Answer:
Equity = 20.34%Debt = 79.66%Explanation:
Book value of stock:
= 8,300,000 * 4
= $33,200,000
Total book value = BV of stock + BV of bonds
= 33,200,000 + 70,000,000 + 60,000,000
= $163,200,000.
Weight of Equity:
= 33,200,000 / 163,200,000
= 20.34%
Weight of debt:
= (70,000,000 + 60,000,000) / 163,200,000
= 79.66%

The estimated variable manufacturing overhead was $2.78 per labor-hour and the estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead was $1,192,360.

a. $2.78
b. $25.45
c. $25.71
d. $22.93
Answer:
Predetermined overhead Absorption rate = $22.93. per labour hour
Explanation:
Predetermined Overhead absorption rate(POAR) = Estimate overhead /Estimated labour hours
Estimated overhead = $1,192,360
Estimated labour hours =52,000 hours
Overhead absorption rate = $1,192,360/52,000 hours =$22.93 per labour hour
Predetermined overhead Absorption rate = $22.93. per labour hour
The Massoud Consulting Group reported net income of $1,382,000 for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. In addition, during the year the company experienced a positive foreign currency translation adjustment of $380,000 and an unrealized loss on debt securities of $45,000. The company’s effective tax rate on all items affecting comprehensive income is 25%. Each component of other comprehensive income is displayed net of tax.
Required:
Prepare a separate statement of comprehensive income for 2021.
Answer: Check attachment
Explanation:
Kindly check the attachment.
Note that:
Foreign currency adjustment will be:
= $380000 × (1 - 25%)
= $380,000 × 75%
= $380,000 × 0.75
= $285,000
Loss on debt securities:
= $45000 × (1 - 25%)
= $45000 × 75%
= $45000 × 0.75
= $33750

You find a zero coupon bond with a par value of $10,000 and 24 years to maturity. The yield to maturity on this bond is 4.6 percent. Assume semiannual compounding periods. What is the price of the bond
Answer:
Zero-cupon bond= $3,357.14
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Par value= $10,000
Number of years to maturity= 24*2= 48 semesters
YTM= 0.046/2= 0.023
To calculate the price of the bond, we need to use the following formula:
Zero-cupon bond= [face value/(1+i)^n]
Zero-cupon bond= [10,000 / (1.023^48)]
Zero-cupon bond= $3,357.14
3. Simone is a marketing consultant hired to review the product sales for a new high-end barista machine line. The product line has four variations, selling in four specialty store regions.

Returns on ABC, Inc. are forecast to be the following: State Probability Return Boom 0.25 30% Normal 0.65 15% Bust 0.10 -14% What is the standard deviation of this company’s stock? Returns on ABC, Inc. are forecast to be the following: State Probability Return Boom 0.25 30% Normal 0.65 15% Bust 0.10 -14% What is the standard deviation of this company’s stock? 11.82% 11.56% 11.32% 11.07% 10.83%
Answer:
Standard deviation=11.82%
Explanation:
Standard deviation is measure of the total risks of an investment. It measures the volatility in return of an investment as a result of both systematic and non-systematic risks. Non-systematic risk includes risk that are unique to a company like poor management, legal suit against the company .
Standard deviation is the sum of the squared deviation of the individual return from the mean return under different scenarios
Expected return (r) = (30% × 0.25 ) + (15% × 0.65) + (-14%× 0.10)=15.8%
Outcome (R- r )^2 × P
Boom (30%-15.8)^2× 0.25 = 50.05
Normal (15%-15.8)^2×0.65 = 0.47
Bust ( 13.6%- 15.8)^2 ×0.1= 89.10
139.63
Standard deviation =√139.63= 11.82%
Standard deviation=11.82%
