Cost-benefit principle would state that you would only take an action if the benefit outweighs the cost.

For example: It may cost me $5 to drive to work, but I make $50 for showing up, I would go because the benefit I get outweighs the cost and I am better off going than staying at home.

Elm City issued a purchase order for supplies with an estimated cost of $5,000. When the supplies were received, the accompanyin

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

$5000

Explanation:

Since Elm City issued a purchase order for supplies with an estimated cost of $5,000, although when the supplies were received, the accompanying invoice indicated an actual price of $4,950, the amount that Elm should credit to encumbrances outstanding in its general fund after the supplies and invoice were received; is $5000

Notice that encumbrances are set aside funds for a purpose, therefore upon ordering, encumbrances balance would increase, and Elm would have passed the following entry

Dr. Encumbrances...$5000

Cr. Fund Balance.....................$5000

Therefore even if the supply came with a shortfall in amount, in order for Elm City to show that the purpose for making that encumbrance has been met, it has to be liquidated by crediting the Encumbrance account by the full amount of $5000

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

a commercial bank

Explanation:

A commercial bank is a deposit accepting institutions regulated by the central bank of a country. The banks play a crucial role in availing capital to businesses. They accept deposits in the form of savings from customers. They keep a small fraction(reserves) in their custody to cater for withdrawal and loan out the rest. Banks, therefore, pool resources together for businesses and households to borrow.

Since banks have a wide customer base, they are able to mobilize huge amounts of resources to loan out. Commercial banks are the best institution to issue a loan to Glenn and Maggie. Saving and loan, credit unions have a limited membership and may not have sufficient resources to issue a loan to Glenn and Maggie.

Happinessistheroad Corp. has the following information available regarding its labor: Managers expected to pay $11 per direct la

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

The actual labor rate per hour is $12

Explanation:

First and foremost, we need to understand that a direct labor spending variance of $990(unfavorable) means that the firm spent an additional $990 compared to what was expected.

Also, the spending variance is computed as the actual labor rate minus the standard labor rate multiplied by the actual labor hours worked

spending variance=(actual labor rate-standard labor rate)*actual labor hours

spending variance=$990

actual labor rate=unknown=(assume it is X)

standard labor rate=$11

actual labor hours worked=990

$990=(X-$11)*990

$990/990=X-$11

$1=X-$11

X=$1+$11

X=actual labor rate=$12

GaryK [48]

Answer:

10.45%

Explanation:

First find the cost of equity for the company

RE = [$4.60*(1.05) / $74] + 0.05

RE = 0.1153, or 11.53%

Then find the YTM on both bond issues

P1 = $950 = $45*PVIFA(R%,48) + $1,000*PVIF(R%,48)

R = 4.767%

YTM = 4.767%×2

YTM = 9.53%

P2 = $1,080 = $50*PVIFA(R%,16) + $1,000*PVIF(R%,16)

R = 4.298%

YTM = 4.298%×2

YTM = 8.60%

Total Debt = 0.95($80,000,000) + 1.08*($60,000,000)

Total Debt = $140,800,000

Weight of D1 = 76,000,000 / 140,800,000

Weight of D1 = 0.5398

Weight of D2 = 64,800,000 / 140,800,000

Weight of D2 = 0.4602

Weighted Average after-tax cost of debt

RD = (1 – 0.35)*[(0.5398)*(0.0953) + (0.4602)(0.086)]

RD = .0592, or 5.92%

Market value of equity = 8,000,000*($74) = $592,000,000

Market value of debt = $140,800,000

Total market value of the company = $592,000,000 + 140,800,000 = $732,800,000

Weights of equity and debt

E/V = $592,000,000 / $732,800,000 = 0.8079

D/V = 1−E/V = 0.1921

WACC = 0.8079(0.1153) + 0.1921(0.0592)

WACC = 0.1045, or 10.45%
