At the beginning of 2020, the balance sheet of a county general fund reports $500,000 in property taxes receivable from 2019, of

which $350,000 are considered uncollectible. During 2020 the county sends out tax bills in the amount of $10,000,000, of which $600,000 are expected to be uncollectible. Cash collections on 2019 taxes are $140,000, and the remaining uncollected taxes are written off. Cash collections on 2020 taxes are $9,500,000. Of the $500,000 uncollected at the end of 2020, $100,000 are expected to be collected within 60 days, $65,000 are expected to be collected more than 60 days after year-end, and the rest are uncollectible.What are total property tax revenues for 2020, related to 2020 tax bills?A. $ 9,600,000B. $ 9,500,000C. $10,000,000D. $ 9,400,000

Answer: A. $ 9,600,000

Explanation:

According to GAAP Principles on Financial Accounting for Property taxes, taxes which are Government revenue, can be accounted for in the period they are to be accrued for (the period incurred) provided that they do not exceed 60 days after the period elapses for it is assumed that they can still be used to pay off expenses in that period.

The total property tax revenues for 2020, related to 2020 tax bills should therefore the sum of the collected amount and the amount to be collected within 60 days after.

= 9,500,000 + 100,000

= $9,600,000

The total property tax revenues for 2020, related to 2020 tax bills is $9,600,000 which is Option A.

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

B. gives the same answer regardless of the direction of change

Explanation:

The computation of the price elasticity of demand using mid point formula is shown below:

Price elasticity of demand = (Percentage change in quantity demanded) ÷ (percentage change in price)

where,

Percentage change in quantity demanded is

= (change in quantity demanded ÷ average of quantity demanded)

And,

The percentage change in price is

= (percentage change in price ÷ average of price)

Therefore, it reflects the same answer

The market value of​ Fords' equity, preferred​ stock, and debt are $ 7 ​billion, $ 2 ​billion, and $ 13 ​billion, respectively.
Alisiya [41]

Answer: 9.48%

Explanation:

Given Data

Debts ;

$7 billion

$2 billion

$13 billion

Beta of Fords stock = Beta = 1.50

Market risk premium = Rp = 8.0%

Risk free rate of interest = Rf = 4.0%

Equity rate = 1.7

Market risk rate = 0.8

Risk free rate = 0.03

Therefore;

Cost of Equity ( Re ) = Risk free rate + equity rate × market risk premium

= 0.03 + (1.7 × 0.8)

= 0.166

Preferred Stock Cost ( PSC)= Dividend ÷ stock price

= 4 ÷ 30

= 0.1333

Total debt = 13 + 6 + 2 = 21 billion

D% = 13 billion ÷ 21 billion

      = 0.619

E% = 6 billion ÷ 21 billion

     = 0.286

P% = 2 billion ÷ 21 billion

     = 0.095

RD = debt capital at 8% maturity rate

Tc= 30%

Rwac =(w/ preferred stock)

= Re × E% + PSC × P% + Rd ( 1- Tc) D%

Rwac = (0.166)(0.286) + (0.1333)(0.095) + (0.08)(1- 0.3)*(0.619)

= 0.094803 * 100

= 9.48%

At 30% tax rate Ford weighted average cost is 9.48%

Cigarette smokers are very loyal buyers of cigarettes. Even if prices of cigarettes rise, they will typically continue to buy th
Amanda [17]

Answer:

a. mostly cigarette buyers.

Explanation:

The law of demand states an inverse relationship between quantity demanded of a good and it's price, keeping other factors affecting demand as constant.

Price elasticity of demand refers to the degree of responsiveness of quantity demanded to a change in price.

Alcohol and cigarettes are exceptions to the law of demand since in their case, the factor of addiction presides which outweighs rational decision making.

Thus, price elasticity of demand of cigarettes is inelastic. So a marginally higher price charged for cigarettes will not reduce their consumption.

A new tax on cigarettes would raise their prices. The manufacturers, to cover such taxes and maintain the same margin as before would further raise the prices of cigarettes further.

Thus, the tax burden would be shifted to the consumers and hence majorly borne by them.

brilliants [131]

Answer and Explanation:

Stockouts logistics cost factor-

Safeway,

Kmart

Transportation logistics cost factor-

Hyundai,

Ford

Inventory logistics cost factor-

Toyota,

Frito Lay

Return goods handling logistics cost factor-

Phillips,

Costco

Warehousing and materials handling logistics cost factor -

Coca Cola,

Walgreens

Order processing logistics cost factor-

SC Johnson,

Chrysler

logistics cost factors are cost factors associated with logistics ( concerned with acquisition, storage and transportation ofresources) based on the kind of business or kind of products or services a company is into. From the above we see that logistics cost factors vary as the companies are into different products or services and industries and therefore face different logistics costs associated with their production and or delivery. Every company aims to achieve logistics efficiency through minimizing costs associated with their logistics costs factors example Hyundai with transportation logistics cost factors would aim to reduce it's logistics cost factors and maximise profits by its locating it's manufacturing plant close to where it imports parts for it's vehicle manufacturing so as to reduce cost of transporting vehicle parts to manufacturing plant

In 2022: Net sales are expected to increase by $9.70 million. Cost of goods sold is expected to be 60 percent of net sales. Depr
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

The question is not complete.

Here is the complete question:

You have been given the following information for PattyCake’s Athletic Wear Corp. for the year 2021:

Net sales = $38,900,000.

Cost of goods sold = $22,220,000.

Other operating expenses = $6,400,000.

Addition to retained earnings = $1,210,500.

Dividends paid to preferred and common stockholders = $1,943,000.

Interest expense = $1,850,000.

The firm’s tax rate is 30 percent.

In 2022:

Net sales are expected to increase by $9.90 million.

Cost of goods sold is expected to be 60 percent of net sales.

Depreciation and other operating expenses are expected to be the same as in 2021.

Interest expense is expected to be $2,125,000.

The tax rate is expected to be 30 percent of EBT.

Dividends paid to preferred and common stockholders will not change.

Calculate the addition to retained earnings expected in 2022. (Enter your answer in dollars, not millions.)

Here is the answer:

Addition to retained earnings is $ 5,753,500

Explanation:

Addition to retained earnings is derived after deducting dividend paid to preferred and common stockholders from the earnings after tax of the entity.

In the case of PattyCake’s Athletic Wear Corp. , it is important to calculate earning after tax before deducting dividend to get addition to retained earnings:

Calculation of Earning after Tax

Earning after Tax is derived by deducting, cost of sales, operating expenses, interest and tax from the entity net sales.

Net Sales ( $38,900,000.  + $9,900,000)                        48,800,000

Cost of Sales (0.6  *    48,800,000)                                  (29,280,000)

Gross profit                                                                         19,520,000

Depreciation and other operating expenses                    (6,400,000)

Earning before Interest and Tax                                        13,120,000

Interest                                                                                 (2,125,000)

Earning before Tax                                                             10,995,000

Tax @ 30% EBT                                                                   (3,298,500)

Earning after Tax                                                                7,696,500

After this, dividend paid is removed to get addition to retained earnings

= $7,696,500  - $1,943,000

=$ 5,753,500
