Answer:

a. Market signaling studies suggest that the price of existing FARO shares will fall.

b. $60,000,000

c. 8.403%

d. $38.471

Explanation:

Given

New Shares: $200,000,000

Existing Shares: $17,000,000

Price per Share: 42

a.

Because the stock of the FARO Technologies is overvalued at the current price

b.

Expected Loss: 30% * New Shares Size

New Shares Size = $200,000,000 (given)

Expected Loss = 30% * $200,000,000

Expected Loss = $60,000,000

c.

Percentage of the value of FARO’s existing equity = Ratio of New Expected Share Value to Existing Share Value

Expected Share Value = $60,000,000

Existing Share Value = Price per Shares * Existing Shares

Existing Share Value = 42 * $17,000,000

Existing Share Value = $714,000,000

Percentage of FARO's Existing Equity = $60,000,000 ÷ $714,000,000

Percentage = 8.403%

d.

The price FARO should expect its existing shares to sell

= Price per Share (1 - Percentage of Existing Equity)

Price per Share = 42

Percentage Existing Equity = 8.403%

The price FARO should expect its existing shares to sell = 42(1-8.403%)

The price FARO should expect its existing shares to sell = 42(1-0.08403)

The price FARO should expect its existing shares to sell = 42 * 0.91597

The price FARO should expect its existing shares to sell = $38.47074

The price FARO should expect its existing shares to sell = $38.471 ----- Approximated

5. Refer to the original data. By automating, the company could reduce variable expenses by $3 per unit. However, fixed expenses
gogolik [260]

Question Completion:

Due to erratic sales of its sole product - a high capacity battery for laptop computers - PEM, Inc., has been experiencing difficulties for some time.  The contribution format income statement for the most recent month is given as follows:

Sales (19,500 units at $30 per unit) $585,000

Variable expenses                              409,500

Contribution margin                             175,500

Fixed expenses                                    180,000

Net operating margin                           ($4,500)

Answer:

PEM, Inc.

a1) New CM ratio = 40%

a2) Break-even point in unit sales and dollars sales

i) Break-even point in unit sales = Fixed Expenses/Contribution per unit

= $237,000/$12

= 19,750 units

ii) Break-even point in dollars sales = Fixed Expenses/Contribution margin ratio

= $237,000/0.4

= $592,500

b. Contribution format income statements, based on sales of 20,800 units:

                                                             Without                With

                                                         Automation         Automation

Sales (20,800 units at $30 per unit) $624,000    $624,000 (20,800 * $30)

Variable expenses (20,800 at $21)     436,800       374,400 (20,800 * $18)

Contribution margin (20,800 * $9)      187,200       249,600 (20,800 * $12)

Fixed expenses                                    180,000       237,000

Net operating margin                            $7,200       $12,600

c) I would recommend that the company should automate its operations.  It will generate more net operating margin, equal to $5,400 ($12,600 - $7,200), when it automates than when it does not, assuming that it expects to sell 20,800 units.  

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Variable expenses reduction = $3 per unit

Old variable expenses per unit = $21 ($409,500/19,500)

New variable expenses per unit = $18 ($21 - $3)

New variable expenses = $351,000 ($18 * 19,500)

New Contribution Margin per unit = $12 ($30 - $18)

New Contribution margin ratio = $12/$30 * 100 = 0.4 or 40%

Old Fixed Expenses = $180,000

New Fixed Expenses = $237,000 ($180,000 + $57,000)

In the economy of Mankewistan in 2015, consumption was $6000, exports were $1000, GDP was $10,000, government purchases were $18
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

$2,400

Explanation:

We know that

GDP = Consumption + Investment + Government purchase + Net exports

where,  

Net exports = Exports - imports

                    = $1,000 - $1,200

                    = -$200

Now the investment is

$10,000 =$6,000 + Investment + $1,800 - $200

$10,000 = $7,600 + Investment

So, the investment equal to

= $2,400

In your own words, interpret what 33% of all goods and property are owned by 1% of the
Radda [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

It means that there must be a huge number of people that have little or nothing.

The most recent estimate of America's population is 331,000,000 roughly

1% of the population is 331,000,000 * 1/100 = 3,310,000

So that means that 3 million people own 33% of 14 trillion in property alone. These numbers are really hard to imagine.

1 trillion has 12 zeros behind it

so 14 trillion has 12 zeros behind it.

3 million people own 1,400.000,000 = 14 000 000 000 000 dollars worth of property.

That means that each person in that group of 3 million is 1 of 14 , 000, 000 in wealth just in property alone. The goods will dilute this somewhat, but I think you get the idea.

3 million people in the United States are multimillionaires, if they own 100% of the property. Of course that isn't true, but I think it's fair to say that they are not poor either.

"Zurich Company reports pretax financial income of $70,000 for 2014. The following items cause taxable income to be different th
Ivan

Answer:

Explanation:

Income tax expense: The expense account that reveals the amount of pre-determined tax paid on income for a required period of time is known as income tax expense account. The following formula can be used to determine the income tax expense:

Income tax expense = (Income before tax\times Income tax rate

Income statement: This is the financial statement of a company which reports all the revenues that are earned and expenses that are to be expended by the company on the immediate accounting year. Income statement is also known profit and loss statement.

Rules for debit and credit:

  • When asset increases, debit it and when asset decreases, credit it.

  • When liabilities increase, credit it and when liabilities decrease, debit it.

  • When stockholders’ equity increases, credit it and when stockholders’ equity decreases, debit it.

  • When the expenses and losses increase, debit them and when the expenses and losses decrease, credit it.

  • When incomes and gains increase, credit them and when incomes and gains decrease debit them.

Earnings before tax: It is the revenue of a company before adjustment of tax. It consists of all operating expenses. It is the earning retained by the company.

1.) To calculate the taxable income and income tax payable:

    Particulars                              Current year      Deferred asset     Deferred liability

Financial income                            $70,000

Excess tax collected                      $16,000                                           $16,000

Excess rent collected                    $22,000              -$22,000

Fines (permanent)                          $11,000

Taxable income(IRS)                     $87,000              -$22,000            $16,000

Tax rate                                           30%                      30%                     30%

Income tax                                     $26,100               -$6,600              $4,800

Therefore, the taxable income is $87,000, and the income tax is $26,100 for current year.        

The taxable income is calculated by adding the income earned, which are eligible for taxation. The financial income is $70,000, the excess tax depreciation is $16,000 (which should be deducted), and the excess rent collected is $22,000. The fines are $11,000. It is taxable as it is permanent. Thus, the taxable income is $87,000. The tax rate is 30 percent. The taxable income should be multiplied with the tax rate. Thus, the taxable income is $26,100. It is income tax payable.

2.) To Prepare a journal entry to record income tax expense, deferred income taxes, and income tax payable for 2014.

Date      Account titles and ex[planations      Debit           Credit

2014      Income tax expense                          $24,300

             Deferred tax asset                             $6,600

             Deferred tax liability                                                  $4,800

             Income tax payable                                                  $26,100

Therefore, income tax expense is debited with $24,300, deferred tax asset is debited with $6,600, deferred tax liability is credited with $4,800, and the income tax payable is credited with $26,100.

It is given that the income tax expense, deferred income taxes, and income taxes payable should be recorded. The income tax expense is $24,300, deferred tax asset is $6,600, deferred liability is $4,800, and the income tax payable is $26,100. The income tax payable is calculated by adding the income tax expense to the deferred tax asset and deducting the obtained value from the liability. Thus, $24,300 is added to $6,600 and deducted by $4,800 and $26,100. Therefore, the income tax expense is debited with $24,300, deferred tax asset is debited with $6,600, deferred tax liability is credited with $4,800, and the income tax payable is credited with $26,100.

3.) To Prepare the income tax expense section of the income statement for 2014.

                                      Income Statement

Particulars                                             Amount       Amount

Income before taxes                                                 $70,000

Income tax expenses current             $26,100

Income tax expenses deferred          -$1,800         $24,300

Net income(loss)                                                       $45,700

It is given that the income before taxes is $70,000, income tax expense of current year is $26,100, and for the deferred year is $1,800. The net income tax expense is $24,300. The net income is calculated by deducting the income before taxes from the income tax expenses. Thus, $24,300 is deducted from $70,000. Therefore, the net income is $45,700.
