Answer:

97.37 SF

Explanation:

Swiss bond purchase price = 1,000 SF

Swiss bond current value = PV at maturity + PV of coupon payments  = (1000 / (1 + 0.10)^7) + (80 * (1 - (1 + 0.1)^-7) / 10% = 513.16 + 389.47 = 902.63 SF

Loss to investor who holds Swiss bond for a year = 1,000 - 902.53 = 97.37 SF

Peggy-Sue's cookies are the best in the world, or so I hear. She has been offered a job by Cookie Monster, Inc., to come to work
Ivan

Answer:

Accounting profit $103,000

Economic profit(loss here) is -$64,000

She should rather take the job at Monster Inc as she is not enjoying an economic profit

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the economic and accounting profits for Peggy-sue’s cookies. We proceed as follows;

Accounting profit(I.e profit without opportunity cost) = 250,000 - 80,000 - 22,000 - 40,000 - 5,000 = $103,000

The Economic profit(profit with opportunity cost) = Accounting Profit - opportunity cost

Let’s calculate the opportunity cost;

Opportunity cost = 160,000( her salary I’d she was working with Monster Inc) + 35,000 * 20%( her investment if she leaves the company) = 160,000 + 7,000 = 167,000

Her Economic Profit = 103,000 - 167,000 = -64 000( a loss in this case)

The company expects an annual need for 5,000 switches. If the company makes the product, it will have to utilize factory space c
WITCHER [35]

Based on the cost to produce each unit of the switches and the annual demand, the total costs will be $25,900 more than the cost of purchasing the switches.

<h3>What is the cost of producing the switches?</h3>

This can be found as:

= Variable cost + set up costs + supervisor's salary + opportunity cost of lost rent

= ( (6 + 5 + 4) x 5,000 units) + 45,500 + 41,000 + (3,700 x 12 months)

= $205,900

If they bought the switches at $36, they would cost:

= 36 x 5,000

= $180,000

Its cheaper to buy by:

= 205,900 - 180,000

= $25,900

In April of the current year, Steelman Press Company transferred Ken Sherm from its factory in Louisiana to its plant in Florida
Verdich [7]

Answer:

A) $158.40

B) $77.90

C) $42

Explanation:

The question is to determine the tax figures for both the State Unemployment Tax Act (SUTA) for Louisiana and Florida and the net Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA) on Sherm's wages.

A) Amount of SUTA tax the company must pay to Louisiana on Sherm's wages

Out of the $14,190 wages of Sherm for the year, $4,950 was paid in Louisiana

Meaning the State SUTA tax in Louisiana = $4,950 x the tax rate for SUTA in Louisiana = 3.2%

= $4,950 x 3.2% = $158.40

B) Amount of SUTA tax the company must pay to Florida on Sherm's wages

Out of $14,190, $4,950 was paid in Louisiana meaning (14,190 - 4,950) = 9,240 was paid in Florida

However, the taxable wage limit is $7,000

threefore, SUTA in Florida = ($7,000-$4950 x 3.8%

= $77.90

C) Amount of the net FUTA tax on Sherm's wages

Using the same taxable wage limit of $7,000

FUTA tax = $7,000 x 0.6% = $42
