In Spring 2018, Parmac Engineering Company signed a $160 million contract with the city of Parkersburg, to construct a new city
marta [7]

Answer:

By using the percentage-of-completion method the $64 million revenue should Parmac recognize in 2018

Explanation:

Percentage-of-completion method : Under this method,

First we have to calculate the percentage which is based on current period cost to total period cost.

After that, multiply the percentage with the revenue so that we get to know how much revenue is being recognized during an particular year.

In mathematically,

Estimated Cost percentage =  current period cost ÷ total period cost

                                              = $48 million ÷ $120 million

                                              = 40%

Now,

Revenue recognized = Estimated cost percentage × Revenue

                                   = 40% × $160 million

                                   = $64 million

Hence, by using the percentage-of-completion method the $64 million revenue should Parmac recognize in 2018

Sunset Corp. has a bond outstanding with a coupon rate of 5.94 percent and semiannual payments. The yield to maturity is 5.1 per
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

$2,189.76

Explanation:

<em>The price of a bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash inflows expected from the bond discounted using the yield to maturity.</em>

<em>The price of the bond can be calculated as follows:</em>

<em>Step 1</em>

<em>PV of interest payment</em>

Interest payment =( 5.94%× $2000)/2

= $59.4

Semi annual yield = 5.1/2 = 2.6%

PV of interest payment

= 59.4× (1-(1.026)^(-20×2))/0.026)

= 59.4 × 24.41400537

=<em>$ 1,450.19</em>

Step 2

<em>PV of  redemption value</em>

=  2,000 × (1+0.051)^(-20)

= 2,000 × 0.369781925

=   739.56

Step 3

<em>Price of bond  </em>

= $1,450.19 + $739.56  

=$2,189.76

Does this​ "stiff competition" mean that the demand curve for​ McDonald's Chicken McNuggets is​ horizontal? Briefly explain.
blagie [28]

Answer: I found the complete question on Google:

By 2017, McDonald's had stopped selling Chicken McNuggets and other products made from chickens fed antibiotics. The change increased McDonald's costs, but an article in the Wall Street Journal noted that "...McDonald's ability to raise its prices is limited because of stiff competition."Source: David Kesmodel, Jacob Bunge, and Annie Gasparro, "McDonald's to Curb Antibiotics in Chicken," Wall Street Journal, March 4, 2015. Does this "stiff competition" mean that the demand curve for McDonald's Chicken McNuggets is horizontal? Briefly explain.

And the correct answer is: "B. ​No, the demand curve is not horizontal because Chicken McNuggets are not identical to other chicken products.".

Which of the following is not considered a legitimate expense of a partnership? a Interest paid to partners based on the amount
never [62]

Answer:

a Interest paid to partners based on the amount of invested capital.

Explanation:

A partnership is formed between two parties that agree to go into a venture for mutual gain. The parties share ownership of the business entity and as such are entitled to profit from their equity holdings.

Interest paid based on invested capital is considered a distribution of profit by the business and not an expense. This is similar to sharing profit to shareholders in a company.

Legitimate expenses include: cost of sales, staff cost, administrative costs, advertising costs, and professional expenses like hiring an accountant.
