Answer:

B) $5,000

Explanation:

Cypress total bill is $1,000,000. Since a foreign bank is going to provide them a service (the acceptance of payment) it will charge them 1.4% per year or 0.7% for thee six month period.

That means that Cypress will collect $1,000,000 x (1 - 0.7%) = $993,000

If Cypress decides to sell the bankers acceptance at a 1% annual fee, he will lose an additional 0.5% for the 6 month period = $930,000 x 0.5% =  $4,965. Apparently we have to round to the nearest thousand ≈ $5,000

Kobotan [32]

There are four parts to property rights are namely the right to use the good, the right  to transfer the good to others, the right to enforcement of property rights, and the right to earn income from the good .

Option C

<u>Explanation: </u>

Property rights are abstract and legally regulated legal buildings for deciding which property or economic goods are used and held.

  2. The right to earn an income from the good
  3. The right to transfer the good to someone else, change it, give up it or destroy it (the right to cease ownership)  
  4. The right to implement property rights.

Throughout economics, the land is normally considered to be owned by an asset or good (rights on the income obtained from property). In fact, several economists argue that ownership rights must be fixed and relations between other parties represented in order to be more efficient .

mart [117]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

If a firm sells on terms of 2/10, net 30 days, and its DSO is 28 days, then the fact that the 28-day DSO is less than the 30-day credit period tell us that the credit department is functioning efficiently and there are no past due accounts. This is a false statement.

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Gunst should produce 500 Bio-mutant games:

  • total contribution margin = $71 x 500 = $35,500

Explanation:

                                   Android          Bio-mutant          Cyclops

selling price                  $100                 $107                   $125

labor                               $48                  $24                     $60

direct materials               $9                    $8                       $16

variable overhead          $7                     $4                        $9

contribution margin      $36                   $71                      $40

labor hours                        4                       2                          5

Bio-mutant generates by far the largest contribution margin and requires the least direct labor hours.

Gunst should produce 500 Bio-mutant games:

  • total revenue = $107 x 500 = $53,500
  • total contribution margin = $71 x 500 = $35,500

If it produces 250 Android games its total contribution margin will = $9,000

If it produces 200 Cyclops games its total contribution margin will = $8,000

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

13.28%

Explanation:

return on stockholders' equity = net income after taxes and preferred stock dividends / average stockholders' equity

  • net income = $1,429,000
  • preferred stocks dividends = 8,000 stocks x $75 x 6% = $36,000
  • average stockholders' equity = ($10,317,000 + $10,662,000) / 2 = $10,489,500

return on stockholders' equity = ($1,429,000 - $36,000) / $10,489,500 = 13.28%
