Answer:

$664,200

Explanation:

Computation of the given data are as follow:-

Material Overhead = (Machine purchase price ÷ Direct material per ton) × Cost of material handling

= (115,000 ÷ 20) × 80

= $460,000  

Set up of Machine = Production overhead =No. of production run × cost of production run

= 8 × $4,000 = $32,000

Quality Control = 12 × $600 = $7,200

Utilities Cost = 11,000 × $15 = $165,000

Work In Process Inventory During April = Material Overhead + Production Overhead + Quality Control +  Utilities Cost

= $460,000 + $32,000 + $7,200 + $165,000

=$664,200

Ivanshal [37]

Options:

I because these securities are not registered with the SEC, such an offering would be illegal in the United States

II because the securities are not registered with the SEC, they can only be resold in the public markets if the company effects a registered primary distribution and is current in its SEC filings

III public resale of these securities can only occur if the customer holds the securities for 6 months "at risk" and then sells the securities in measured quantities

IV these securities can only be resold by the customer to underwriters that will buy the securities into their inventory and then register them with the SEC

Answer:

II because the securities are not registered with the SEC, they can only be resold in the public markets if the company effects a registered primary distribution and is current in its SEC filings

III public resale of these securities can only occur if the customer holds the securities for 6 months "at risk" and then sells the securities in measured quantities

Explanation:

Option I is wrong because this type of operations is completely legal, and they are called private placements.

Option IV is also wrong because the underwriters do not register the stocks with the SEC, the company must be public in order for it to be registered  and their stocks publicly traded.

Option II is correct because you can privately resell the stocks, but the market is very limited.

Option III is correct because if the company does turn public, then the investor must hold the stocks for 6 months "at risk" (no puts purchased) before being able to sell them on public markets.

Nichols Corporation's value of operations is equal to $600 million after a recapitalization (the firm had no debt before the rec
Daniel [21]

Answer:

The answer is $750 millions

Explanation:

After recapitalization, the Weight of Debts of Nichols Corporation is 25%. Hence, its Weight of Equity Capital is: 100% - 25% = 75%.

The formula of Value of Operations as follows:

Value of Operations = Weight of Debts x Value of Debts + Weight of Equity Capital x Value of Equity Capital

Because Nichols Corporation's value of operations is equal to $600 million after recapitalization, we have the following equation with S as the value of equity after the recap:

600 = 25% x 150 + 75% x S

=> S = (600 - 25% x 150) / 75% = 750

fiasKO [112]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, the question is incomplete. Indeed, there is no question at all, just a series of statements.

What we can do is to comment on this case.

We are talking about the story of Bob Bell and Michael Sharpe.

Royalties were the main reason for this dispute. Bob Bell was the engineer that invented the bicycle trailer. Michale Sharpe would focus on Marketing the product due to his experience with computers and sales. Sharpe wanted both to share the financial risks but Bell considered it hos invention and wanted more royalties. Things went in the wrong direction, the situation got worse and they both hired lawyers in Toronto, Canada.

After disputes and legal actions, Bell won the case and he could expanse his business nationwide and signed an agreement with a Chinese company to sell the product.  On the other hand, Sharpe made a 180-degree turn and started a fitness business.

A municipal bond carries a coupon of 6.75% and is trading at par. What is the equivalent taxable yield to a taxpayer in a combin
Bingel [31]

Answer:

10.23%

Explanation:

Formula for computation of equivalent taxable yield is r = rm/1-t. Where the tax rate is t, rm is Yield on municipal bond and r is Tax equivalent yield

r = rm/1-t

r = 6.75% / 1 - 34%

r = 6.75% / 0.66%

r = 10.22727272727273%

r = 10.23%

So, the equivalent taxable yield to a taxpayer in a combined federal plus state 34% tax bracket is 10.23%.
