Answer:
a) 1.562
b) ( overvalued by 56.2% )
c) 1.477
d ) -5.3% ( appreciation of dollar vs euro )
e) 2%
f) -5.1% ( appreciation of dollar vs euro )
Explanation:
Given that : $1.25 = 1 euro
Inflation rate next year in U.S = 3%
Inflation rate next year in euro area = 1%
U.S basket that cost $100 cost 64 euro in the euro area
a) Determine the current U.S real exchange rate with the euro area
= $100 / $64 = 1.562
b) The dollar is overvalued because the given exchange rate is lower than the real exchange rate
= ( 1.562 - 1 ) * 100% = 56.2% ( overvalued by 56.2% )
c) prediction of the U.S real exchange rate with euro in a year's time
given that the speed of convergence to absolute PPP = 15% pear year ( i.e. exchange rate will be adjusted by 15% each year )
assume prices do not change in each economy
Today's real exchange rate = 1.562 ∴ an adjustment of 0.562 is needed( decrease )
and 15% of the adjustment = ( 15/100 ) * 0.562 = 0.084
hence the real exchange rate in a year's time = 1.562 - 0.084 = 1.477
d) Determine the expected rate of real depreciation for the U.S vs Euro
= - 0.084 / 1.562 = -0.053 = -5.3% ( appreciation of dollar vs euro )
e) Determine The expected inflation differential
= 3% - 1% = 2%
f) determine the rate of nominal depreciation for the U.S vs Euro
inflation rate differential = 2%
real exchange rate = 1.47 therefore change required = ( 15% * 0.47 ) = 0.075
hence the rate of nominal depreciation = - 0.075 / 1.47 = -0.051 = -5.1% ( appreciation of dollar vs euro )
Suppose your salary in 2016 is $30,000. Assuming an annual inflation rate of 3%, what salary do you need to earn in 2022 in order to have the same purchasing power
Answer:
$35821.5
Explanation:
Using compound formula
A= P( 1+ r/ n)^ nt
A= amount
t= time period
n=Number of years
2016----2022= 6years
Substitute for the values we have
A= $30,000[ 1+ (3/100)/1]^ (6)
A= $35821.5
Hence, salary you need to earn in 2022 in order to have the same purchasing power is $35821.5

e. A firm from Macedonia selling in the US.
f. U .S. based Hewlett-Packard, which is a tech purchasing a high tech company in Macedonia
Answer:
A. Todd, American, to visit Macedonia spring brew
Explanation:
Todd is a loser due to the depreciation of the U.S. dollar because now he will need more dollars to buy a comparative amount of South Korea won. His trip will now be more expensive.
An investment bank in South Korea, interested in purchasing U.S. government bonds - winner
The investment bank will exchange fewer wons for U.S. dollars than before. Buying government bonds will now be cheaper for them.
Goodyear, a firm based in the United States, sells car tires in South Korea - winner
Goodyear will likely sell more cars because for its South Korean customers, the cars are now cheaper since the value of the dollar has depreciated against the currency that they hold.
A family from South Korea visits relatives in the United States - winner
The South Korean family will exchange fewer wons for more U.S. dollars, making their trip cheaper.
A firm from South Korea sells handbags in the United States - loser
The handbags will now be more expensive for their American customers, likely causing a loss in sales revenue for the firm.
An electronics manufacturer in the United States, purchases a high tech company in South Korea - loser
The cost of the high-tech South Korean company is now higher for the American manufacturer because more dollars had to be exchanged for wons before the purchase.

Required:
1. The loan of $420,000 and acceptance of the note receivable on April 1, 2021
2. The adjustment for accrued interest on December 31, 2021
3. Cash collection of the note and interest on April 1, 2022.
Record the above transactions for Shoemaker Corporation.

Interest Revenue $12600 Cr
April 1, 2022
Cash $470400 Dr
Note Receivable $420000 Cr
Interest Receivable $50400 Cr
Explanation:
1.
The issuance of notes creates an asset in the books of Shoemaker and the note receivable is debited by the amount of the loan. In exchange, cash is paid out as loan and thus it is credited.
2.
Following accrual principle, the interest revenue related to year 2021, is recorded on 31 December 2021 and a receivable is created against it as the interest revenue has not been received on 31 December 2021. The amount of interest revenue will be,
Interest Revenue - 31 December 2021 = 420000 * 12% * 9/12 = $37800
The loan was issued on 1 April and 9 months interest has been earned till 31 December 2021.
3.
On 30 March 2022, the remaining three months interest revenue will be recorded against a receivable. The amount will be ,
Interest Revenue - March 2022 = 420000 * 12% * 3/12 = $12600
On 1 April, cash will be received for 420000 Principal and 50400 (37800 + 12600) (37800 + 12600 interest and it will be recorded as debit to cash for 470400 and credit to notes receivable for 420000 and interest receivable to 50400.
In July, one of the processing departments at Okamura Corporation had beginning work in process inventory of $24,000 and ending work in process inventory of $29,000. During the month, the cost of units transferred out from the department was $159,000. In the department's cost reconciliation report for July, the total cost to be accounted for under the weighted-average method would be:
Answer: $188000
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the total cost to be accounted for under the weighted-average method would be calculated thus:
Cost of ending work in process inventory = $29,000
Add: Cost of units transferred out = $159,000
Therefore, the total cost to be accounted for will be;
= $29000 + $159000
= $188000
Holtzman Clothiers's stock currently sells for $40.00 a share. It just paid a dividend of $1.75 a share (i.e., D0 = $1.75). The dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 7% a year. What stock price is expected 1 year from now? Round your answer to the nearest cent. $ What is the required rate of return? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places. %
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. What stock price is expected 1 year from now?
This will be calculated as:
= P0 × (1 + g)
where,
P0 = $40
g = growth rate = 7%
= P0 × (1 + g)
= 40 × (1 + 7%)
= 40 × (1 + 0.07)
= 40 × 1.07
= $42.80
b. What is the required rate of return?
This will be:
= (D1 / P0) + g
where D1 = D0 × (1+g) = 1.75 × (1+0.07) = 1.75 × 1.07 = 1.8725
= (D1 / P0) + g
= (1.8725 / 40) + 0.07
= 0.1168
= 11.68%
TB MC Qu. 8-199 The Puyer Corporation makes and sells ... The Puyer Corporation makes and sells only one product called a Deb.

If the company has budgeted to sell 17,000 Debs in March, then the average budgeted selling and administrative expenses per unit sold for March is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
Answer: $10
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the total budgeted selling and administrative expenses for March which will be:
Advertising = $50,000
Add: Executive salaries = $60,000
Add: Depreciation on office equipment = $20,000
Add: Other = $40,000
Total = $170,000
Since the company has budgeted to sell 17,000 Debs in March, then the average budgeted selling and administrative expenses per unit sold for March is:
= $170000 / 17000
= $10
Leakages and injections Suppose the economy is initially in equilibrium, when a decrease in decreases total leakages out of the economy. Which of the following will occur as a result of this change? Suppose the economy is initially in equilibrium, when a decrease in decreases total leakages out of the economy. Which of the following will occur as a result of this change? Check all that apply. GDP rises above planned spending. Firms experience an increase in unplanned inventory. There is a proportionate decrease in investment. Real GDP falls. Injections and leakages are equal to each other .
Answer:
Suppose the economy is initially in equilibrium, when a decrease in Savings decreases total leakages out of the economy.
Savings are considered leakages in the economy because the represent money that is not spent but rather saved.
Which of the following will occur as a result of this change?
GDP rises above planned spending.
Savings reduces spending but as savings have reduced, there will be more spending which is unplanned and so this increase in unplanned spending will make GDP higher than planned spending.
Injections and leakages are equal to each other when real GDP is equal to aggregate expenditure.
Injections and leakages are equal when the output (GDP) and the Aggregate expenditure are the same.
Patricia purchased a home on January 1, 2017 for $1,420,000 by making a down payment of $100,000 and financing the remaining $1,320,000 with a 30-year loan, secured by the residence, at 6 percent. During year 2017 and 2018, Patricia made interest-only payments on the loan of $79,200. What amount of the $79,200 interest expense Patricia paid during 2018 may she deduct as an itemized deduction
Answer: $60,000
Explanation:
The maximum amount deductible is based on a mortgage of $1,000,000 and the interest rate of the mortgage being paid.
Interest on $1,000,000 at 6% is:
= 6% * 1,000,000
= $60,000
Only $60,000 of the $79,200 may be deducted.
The carrying value of bonds at maturity always equals: Multiple Choice the amount of discount or premium. the amount of cash originally received in exchange for the bonds plus any unamortized discount or less any premium. the par value of the bond. the amount of cash originally received in exchange for the bonds. the amount in excess of par value.
Answer: the par value of the bond
Explanation:
The carrying value of bonds at maturity will always be equal to the par value of the bond. The carrying value of a bond is simply refered to as the bond's face value or par value plus the premiums taht are unamortized.
We should note that during the time of maturity of the bond, there'll have been an ammortization of the discounts or premiums, while the bond's par value will be left.
The carrying value of bonds at maturity always equals to the amount of cash originally received in exchange for the bonds plus any unamortized discount or less any premium. Thus, option (b) is correct.
At maturity, bonds' carrying values will always be the same as their par values. The face value or par value of a bond plus any unamortized premiums are simply referred to as the bond's carrying value.
To put it another way, it is the total of a bond's face value, any unamortized premiums, and any unamortized discounts, if any. The par value, interest rate, and remaining maturity period of the bond must all be known before calculating the carrying value using the effective interest rate technique.
Therefore, option (b) is correct.

Ms. T. Potts, the treasurer of Ideal China, has a problem. The company has just ordered a new kiln for $464,000. Of this sum, $58,000 is described by the supplier as an installation cost. Ms. Potts does not know whether the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) will permit the company to treat this cost as a tax-deductible current expense or as a capital investment. In the latter case, the company could depreciate the $58,000 straight-line over 5 years. The tax rate is 30% and the opportunity cost of capital is 5%.
a. What is the present value of the cost of the kiln if the installation cost is treated as a separate current expense?
b. What is the present value of the cost of the kiln if the installation cost is treated as a part of the capital investment?
Answer:
Ideal China
a) The present value of the cost of the kiln if the installation cost is treated as a separate current expense is:
= $318,304.
b) The present value of the cost of the kiln if the installation cost is treated as a part of the capital investment is:
= $363,776.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Present value factor for 5 years at 5% = 0.784
Cost of new kiln = $464,000
Installation cost = $58,000
Present value of the cost of the kiln if the installation cost is treated as a separate current expense = $406,000 * 0.784 = $318,304
Present value of the cost of the kiln if the installation cost is treated as a part of the capital investment = $464,000 * 0.784 = $363,776

Explanation:
1. Calculation to Show how International Machines determined the $18,200 quarterly lease payments
First step is to find the Present value of annuity at period start
Lease term=n = 2 x 4 quarters
Lease term=n= 8 periods
Fair value of asset = $138,287
Implicit interest rate, i = 6%, quarterly rate = 6%/4 Implicit interest rate= 1.5%
Present value of annuity at period start at 1.5%, 8 periods
Present value of annuity at period start = 7.5982
Now let determine the quarterly payments

MillerCoors Brewing Company is the world’s fifth largest brewer. In the United States, its tie to the magical appeal of the Rocky Mountains is one of its most powerful trademarks. Some of the items included in its recent annual consolidated statement of cash flows presented using the indirect method are listed here. Indicate whether each item is disclosed in the Operating Activities (O), Investing Activities (I), or Financing Activities (F) section of the statement or use (NA) if the item does not appear on the statement. (Note: This is the exact wording used on the actual statement.)
Answer:
1. Purchase of stock. FINANCING ACTIVITIES.
Financing activities relate to transactions that involve the capital of the company. They include long term debt and equity. In this case, the company is buying back its own shares so this falls under Financing activities as it has to do with the company's own capital.

Principal repayment retires long term debt and as mentioned above, financing activities relate to activities that involve long term debt.
3. Proceeds from sale of properties. INVESTING ACTVITIES.
Properties are fixed assets and transactions involving these are considered investing activities so the proceeds from a sale of properties would rightfully be an investing activity.
4. Inventories (decrease). OPERATING ACTIVITIES.
Transactions that have to do with the day to day operations of the business fall under operating activities and this includes inventories decreasing.
5. Accounts payable (decrease). OPERATING ACTIVITIES.
Operations of the business includes accounts payables decreasing as well.
6. Depreciation and amortization. OPERATING ACTIVITIES.

The demand for the firm's product is inelastic. C. The firm must practice product differentiation. D. The firm must be able to segment the market for the product.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Price discrimination is when the same product is sold at different prices to customers in different markets
Types of Price Discrimination
1. first degree price discrimination : here sellers charge each consumer at their willingness to pay in order to eliminate consumer surplus.
2. second degree price discrimination : here firms offer different prices depending on the quantity purchased. e.g. giving discounts for bulk purchases.
3, third degree price discrimination : firms charge different prices to different groups of customers. e.g. having a certain price for senior citizens, students
Requirements to practice successful price discrimination
The firm must have market power. If the firm does not have market power and attempts to price discriminate they would lose customersThe firm must have different elasticities of demand for their product in different marketsThe firm must be able to segment the market for their productsWhispering Winds Corp. just began business and made the following four inventory purchases in June: June 1 147 units $882 June 10 196 units 1372 June 15 196 units 1568 June 28 147 units 1323 $5145 A physical count of merchandise inventory on June 30 reveals that there are 196 units on hand. Using the LIFO inventory method, the value of the ending inventory on June 30 is
Answer:
the ending inventory using the LIFO method is $1,225
Explanation:
The computation of the value of the inventory using the LIFO method is shown below;
Since there are 196 closing units
So,
= 146 units × $6 + 49 units × $7
= $882 + $343
= $1,225
The $6 come from
= $882 ÷ 147 units
And, $7 comes from
= $1,372 ÷ 196 units
Hence, the ending inventory using the LIFO method is $1,225

Pewabic plans to sell 900 boxes of art tile in April, and estimates they'll craft 870 boxes during the month. Each box of tile requires 44 pounds of clay and a quarter hour of direct labor. Clay costs $0.40 per pound and pottery artisans are paid $12.00 per hour. Manufacturing overhead is applied at a rate of 110% of direct labor costs. Pewabic has 3,900 pounds of clay in beginning inventory on April 1 and wants to have 4,500 pounds in ending inventory on April 30. What total amount should Pewabic budget for direct labor for the of April
Answer:
Direct labour cost budget= $2,610
Explanation:
The direct labor cost budget is a function of the production product budget. The quantity of the product budgeted to be produced would determine the labor cost budget.
Direct labour budget = Production budget × standard hours × standard labour rate per hour
Standard hour = a quarter direct labour = 1/4 hour
Direct labour budget = 870 × 0.1× $12= $2610
Direct labour cost budget= $2,610
Consider the following statements regarding the economic pricing model:
I. The economic model is limited in use because a firm's demand curve is difficult to determine.
II. The marginal revenue and marginal cost model is valid for all forms of market organization (perfect competition, oligopoly, and so forth).
III. Cost accounting systems are not designed to measure the marginal changes in cost incurred as production and sales increase.
Which of the above statements is (are) true?
A. I only.
B. III only.
C. I and III.
D. II and III.
E. I, II, and III.
Answer:
C. I and III.
Explanation:
The demand curve is affected by many variables that can change in a relatively short period of time, for example, consumers' income. Even if a company is able to measure the demand curve, it cannot be sure for how long that result holds true. Managerial accounting is designed to measure historical costs generally associated to a certain production range.
Berry Bloom Co is getting ready for Mother's Day and needs to purchase bouquets of flowers which will be sold prior to the holiday. Due to the high demand leading up to Mother's Day, the bouquets of flowers are sold at $20/bouquet. However, after the holiday, the bouquets can only be sold at $10/bouquet. The bouquets of flowers are purchased at $15/bouquet. Berry Bloom Co wants to perform an analysis to determine how many bouquets should be procured in preparation for Mother's Day. This type of problem is called the Group of answer choices Economic Order Quantity Problem Nonlinear Optimization Problem Newsvendor Problem Discriminant Analysis Problem
Answer:
Berry Bloom Co.
This type of problem that requires Berry to perform an analysis to determine how many bouquets of flowers to procure in preparation for Mother's Day is a:
Newsvendor Problem.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Selling price of bouquets of flowers = $20/bouquet
Cost price of bouquets of flowers = $15/bouquet
Profit per bouquet during Mother's Day = $5 ($20 - $15)
After-holiday selling price of the bouquets of flowers = $10/bouquet
Loss per bouquet of flower after the holiday = $5 ($15 - $10)
b) The Newsvendor model describes the challenges facing Berry Bloom as it gets ready for the Mother's Day holiday. The company must decide the volume of bouquets of flowers to procure prior to the holiday. The purchase decision becomes a problem because the demand for flowers is not certain, and the company is aware that unsold bouquets will be sold at a loss of $5 per bouquet after the holiday.
Let T1 be the time between a car accident and reporting a claim to the insurance company. Let T2 be the time between the report of the claim and payment of the claim. The joint density function of T1 and T2, f(t1, t2), is constant over the region 0 < t1 < 6, 0 < t2 < 6, t1 t2 < 10, and zero otherwise. Determine E[T1 T2], the expected time between a car accident and payment of the claim.
Answer:
5.7255
Explanation:
From the given information:
[tex]T_1 \to \text{time between car accident \& reporting claim} \\ \\ T_2 \to \text{time between reporting claim and payment of claim}[/tex]
The joint density function of [tex]T_1[/tex] and [tex]T_2[/tex] is:
[tex]f(t_1,t_2) = \left \{ {{c \ \ \ 0<t_1<6, \ \ \ 0<t_2<6, \ \ \ t_1+t_2<10} \atop {0} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ otherwise} \right.[/tex]
Area(A): [tex]= 6\times 6 - \dfrac{1}{2}*2*2[/tex]
= 34
The limits are:
[tex]\text{limits of } \ t_1 \ from \ 0 \ is \ 10 \to t_2 \\ \\ \text{limits of } \ t_2 \ from \ 0 \ is \ 4 \to 6[/tex]
Also;
[tex]\text{limits of } \ t_1 \ is \ 0 \to 6 \\ \\ \text{limits of } \ t_2 \ is \ 0 \to 4[/tex]
∴
[tex]\iint f(t_1,t_2) dt_1dt_2 =1 \\ \\ c \iint 1dt_1dt_2 = 1 \\ \\ cA = 1 \\ \\ \implies c = \dfrac{1}{34}[/tex]
To find;
[tex]E(T_1+T_2) = \iint (t_1+t_2)c \ \ dt_1dt_2 \\ \\ \implies \dfrac{1}{34} \Big[\int \limits^4_0 \int \limits^6_0(t_1+t_2) dt_1 \ dt_2 + \int \limits^6_4 \int \limits^{10-t_2}_0(t_1+t_2) dt_1 dt_2 \Big] \\ \\ \implies \dfrac{1}{34} (120 + \dfrac{224}{3}) \\ \\ = \mathbf{5.7255}[/tex]
