At the end of 2017, Payne industries had a deferred tax asset account with a balance of $26 million attributable to a temporary book tax difference of $65 million in a liability for estimated expenses. At the end of 2018, the temporary difference is $60 million. Payne has no other temporary differences and no valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset. Taxable income for 2018 is $220 million and the tax rate is 40%. Required:
1. Prepare the journal entry(s) to record Payne’s income taxes for 2018, assuming it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized.
2. Prepare the journal entry(s) to record Payne’s income taxes for 2018, assuming it is more likely than not that one-fourth of the deferred tax asset will ultimately be realized.
Answer: 2.77
Explanation:
Portfolio Beta is the Weighted Average Beta of all the individual stocks in a portfolio.
Seeing as the other betas and proportions are given, we can plug this into a formula to find out the beta of stock B.
In case you do not see a beta for the U.S. Treasury bills that's fine because beta is a measure of risk and U.S. Treasury bills have NONE so that means that their better is 0.
And if you are wondering what the beta of stock A is, the answer is 1 because that is the beta of the overall market by definition.
Creating a formula therefore we have,
1.75 = 0.17(0) + 0.31(1) + 0.52x
0.52x = 1.75 - 0.31
0.52x = 1.44
x = 2.76923076923
x = 2.77 (2dp)
2.77 is the beta of Stock B.
<span>Foreign firms should seek this sorts of alliances, because making them is a good way to obtain knowledge of local markets; contrast this to a foreign firm attempting to start up a branch on their own, perhaps in the form of a greenfield venture. They would potentially have to figure out local market conditions from scratch, whereas a local company would potentially have years of successful experience and knowledge already at their fingertips.</span>
Answer: (a) $295 million
(b) $326 million
Explanation:
Given that,
Sales = $900 million during 2016
Cash = $871 million
Cost of goods sold = $280 million
Expenses for the year totaled = $325 million
Paid for Inventory = $375 million
Paid for everything else = $285 million
Beginning cash = $115 million
(a) Net Income = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Expenses for the year totaled
= $900 - $280 - $325
= $295 million
(b) Carter's cash balance at the end of 2016:
= Cash + Beginning cash - Paid for Inventory - Paid for everything else
= $871 + $115 - $375 - $285
= $326 million
