Answer:
The appropriate journal entry to record the March purchases of shares under the employee share purchase plan are as follows:
Debit: Cash ($12 × 85%) × $50,000 = $510,000
Debit: Compensation Expense ($12 × 8%) × $50,000 = $90,000
Credit: Common Stock = $50,000
Paid in Capital – Excess of Par ($50,000 × $11) = $550,000
Answer:
Explanation: Both the marginal cost curve and the average variable cost curve are U-shaped. For many firms, this is true because their production exhibits increasing returns at low levels of output and decreasing returns at high levels of output. At the minimum of average cost, the marginal cost curve intersects the average cost curve. This is because when marginal cost is above average cost, average cost is decreasing and when marginal cost is below average cost, average cost is decreasing.
Answer:
The answer is: The excise tax on cola beverages is $2 per case.
Explanation:
Excise taxes are taxes levied on certain goods or services.
In this case the price of cola beverages is $4 per case, since excise taxes are included in the price of the product, then the excise tax on cola beverages = price paid by consumers - price received by producers = $4 - $2 = $2
Answer:
7.28%
Explanation:
For this question we use the RATE formula that is shown in the attachment below:
Provided that
Present value = $1,075
Assuming figure - Future value or Face value = $1,000
PMT = 1,000 × 8% ÷ 2 = $40
NPER = 20 years × 2 = 40 years
The formula is shown below:
= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after solving this, the coupon rate is
= 3.64% × 2
= 7.28%
Answer: 0.000903
Explanation:
Expected return is the sum of the probability that the other returns will happen.
= (13% * 83%) + (5% * 17%)
= 10.79 % + 0.85%
= 11.64%
Variance = ((Return during boom - Expected return)²*probability of boom) + ((Return during recession - Expected Return)²*probability of recession)
Variance = ((13% -11.64%)² * 83%) + (5% - 11.64%)² * 17%)
= 0.0001535168 + 0.0007495232
= 0.000903
