sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The rate of return on the investment if the price fall by 7% next year is -22% which is shown below.

The price of Telecom would have to fall by $71.43($250-$178.57), before a margin call could be placed.

Lastly,if the price fall immediately,the margin price would $178.57 as shown below

Explanation:

Total shares bought=$40000/$250=160 shares

Interest on amount borrowed=8%*$20000=$1600

When the price falls by 7% the new price =$250(1-0.07)=$232.50

Hence rate of return=(New price*number of shares-Interest-total investment)/initial investor's funds

=($232.50*160-$40000-$1600)/$20000=-22%

Initial margin=investor's money/total investment=$20000/$40000=50%

maintenance  margin=30%

Margin call price=Current price x (1- initial margin)/ (1- maintenance margin)

                           =$250*(1-0.5)/(1-0.3)

                           =$178.57

Montana Mining Co. pays $3,721,000 for an ore deposit containing 1,525,000 tons. The company installs machinery in the mine cost
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Ore deposit depletion and Mining machinery depreciation Journal entries

Dr Depletion charge (Ore deposits) 405,528

Cr Accumulated depreciation 405,528

Dr Depletion charge (Ore deposits) 23,268

Cr Accumulated depreciation 23,268

Explanation:

Preparation of the year-end entries to record both the ore deposit depletion and the mining machinery depreciation of Montana Mining Co

Depletion of natural resources can be defined as the way in which the cost of natural resources is apportioned upto the period when it will be utilized which is why they are shown at cost in balance sheet.

The entry is to record depreciation charged on ore deposit depletion. Therefore To record this entry we have to debit depletion charges, and credit accumulated depreciation

Dr Depletion charge (Ore deposits) 405,528

Cr Accumulated depreciation 405,528

Computation of depletion cost per unit:

The depletion cost per unit can be calculated by dividing the net cost of the ore with the total units of capacity :

Depletion/units = Cost - Salvage/ Total unit of capacity

$3,721,000/1,525,000 tons

=$2.44

Hence, depletion per unit is $2.44.

Computation depletion amount on ore deposit:

The depletion amount on ore deposit can be calculated by multiplying the cost per depletion unit with the number of units utilized:

Depletion =Cost/Unit ×Units Utilized

$2.44×166,200 tones

=$405,528

Hence, depletion expenses on ore deposit amounts to $405,528.

The pass entry to record depreciation charged on mining machine :

Dr Depletion charge (Ore deposits) 23,268

Cr Accumulated depreciation 23,268

Computation of depreciation cost per unit:

The depletion cost per unit can be calculated by dividing the net cost of the ore with the total units of capacity :

Depletion/units = Cost - Salvage/ Total unit of capacity

$213,500/1,525,000 tons

=$0.14

Hence, depreciation per unit is $0.14.

Computation of depreciation amount on ore deposit:

The depletion amount on ore deposit can be calculated by multiplying the cost per depletion unit with the number of units utilized:

Depletion =Cost/Unit ×Units Utilized

$0.14×166,200 tones

=$23,268

Therefore the depreciation expenses on ore deposit amounts to $23,268

RuthAnn is 28 years old and is retiring at the age of 65. When she retires, she estimates that she will need an annual income of
inessss [21]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

From her current age of 28 to her retirement age of 65, RuthAnn has (65 - 28 =) 37 more years to work.

If she saves 11% of her annual income of $36,278.13 into a 401(k), she will be setting aside (11% * 36,278.13 =) $3,990.59 into the 401(k) account annually.

At 7.1% compounding rate, in 37 years, RuthAnn would have set aside an amount estimated by the future value of an annuity formula.

FV = \frac{A(1+r)^{n} - 1}{r}

where FV is the future value, the amount that would have been set aside,

A = is the annual savings,

r = is the compounding rate, and

n = is the number of years.

Therefore, the total amount that would be saved up after 37 years =

FV = \frac{3,990.59(1+0.071)^{37} - 1}{0.071}

= (3,990.59 * 11.6535)/0.071

= $654,990.31.

By spending $32,523 annually from an account earning 7.1% compound interest rate for 30 years, the present value of the total amount needed by RuthAnn today that will be sufficient for her retirement spending can be estimated using the present value of an annuity formula.

PV = \frac{A(1 - (1+r)^{-n}}{r}

= PV = \frac{32,523(1 - (1.071)^{-30}}{0.071}

= (32523 * 0.8723)/0.071

= $399,574.83.

Since the amount saved up ($654,990.31) is more than the total amount required for RuthAnn's retirement ($399,574.83), RuthAnn has more than sufficient to meet her Retirement goal.

Specifically, the amount she has saved up can support a maximum annual spending which can be estimated from the present value of an annuity formula.

PV = \frac{A(1 - (1+r)^{-n}}{r}

where PV = the amount saved up, $654,990.31,

A = the annual spending which we are estimating,

r = the 7.1% compound interest rate,

n = the number of years to retirement.

654,990.31 = \frac{A(1 - (1.071)^{-30}}{0.071}

= 654,990.31 = (A * 0.8723)/0.071

= A = 654,990.31/0.8723 * 0.071

= A = 53,312.29

Thus, the amount saved up can support a maximum retirement spending of $53,312.29, which is higher than the $32,523 annual income needed by RuthAnn for her retirement.

In the past few years, the demand for donuts has decreased. this would be illustrated by a change from?
zepelin [54]

The decrease in demand would be illustrated by a change from A to C.

<h3>What will be the change?</h3>

The demand curve is a downward sloping curve that shows the relationship between price and the quantity demanded. There is a negative relationship between price and quantity demanded.

A change in demand is caused by other factors other than the price of the good. Other factors include a change in income, a change in consumer taste or a change in the price of substitute goods.

When there is a change in demand, the demand curve would shift either to the right or to the left. When demand decreases, the demand curve would shift to the left. When demand increases, the demand curve would shift to the right.

Since, the demand for donuts have decreased, the demand curve would shift to the left. This would be a shift from A to C.

Please find attached the complete question. To learn more about the demand curve, please check: brainly.com/question/25140811
