Answer:

No

Explanation:

Given the information from the question .We need to discuss if the Luis’s situation is allowable by the IRS. The IRS doesn’t permit to show fewer expenses or expenditures to acquire more reimbursement or refund. Therefore it is impossible for Luis to remove the expenses so that he can get maximum refund .The correct answer for this question is No.

Consider a file whose size varies between 4 kb and 4 mb during its lifetime. which of the three allocation schemes (contiguous,
uranmaximum [27]
Table/indexed.  
Let's look at the three options and see what their advantages and disadvantages are:  
Contiguous - In this scheme, the file is stored in contiguous blocks of the disk. It allows for easy random access of the data, but requires a contiguous sequence of blocks large enough to handle the entire file. Since the size of the file specified in this question varies quite a bit over it's lifespan, you're either going to be wasting a lot of space by having an allocation large enough to handle the maximum sized file, or the file will need to be copied whenever it grows and "bumps" into a file that was allocated after it. Because of this, this method is not the best.  
Linked - The file is stored as a single, or double linked list of file blocks. This allows for the file to grow or shrink as needed, using only the amount of space needed for the file. Unfortunately, this storage scheme doesn't allow for random access of the file contents and the file can only be accessed sequentially. The question for this problem doesn't specify how the file is being accessed, so as long as random access isn't required, then this would be a reasonable allocation scheme. But I'm assuming that random access will be required, in which case, this scheme isn't ideal.  
table/indexed - In this scheme, some disk blocks are used as tables to point to other disk blocks that actually contain the file data. It's almost as fast as contiguous allocation for random access of the file contents, yet allows for the growth and shrinkage of a file like linked allocation. As such, it handles all use cases at a relatively minor cost in total storage required. So this would be the most appropriate allocation scheme since the file access behavior wasn't specified in this question.

Spree Company sold $769,300 of goods during the year at a cost of goods sold of $548,600. Inventory was $31,283 at the beginning
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

16.42

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Cost of goods sold =  $548,600

Beginning inventory of the year = $31,283

Ending inventory of the year = $35,538

Now,

the Inventory turnover ratio is calculated as;

⇒ ( Cost of goods sold ) ÷ ( Average inventory of the year )

Also,

Average inventory of the year = \frac{\textup{Beginning inventory + Ending inventory}}{\textup{2}}

= \frac{\$31,283+\$35,538}{\textup{2}}

= $33,410.5

Therefore,

Inventory turnover ratio = $548,600 ÷  $33,410.5

= 16.42

A company received a bank statement showing a balance of $78,000. Reconciling items included outstanding checks of $2,400 and a
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Adjusted Bank Balance = $85,000

Explanation:

Adjustment of bank balance is a bank reconciliation procedure, that is used to match the amount in the bank statement with the amount in the company's balance sheet.

To adjust the bank balance, particulars that need to be subtracted or added to the bank statement balance has to be identified and treated accordingly.

For this example, the adjusted balance is calculated thus:

Adjusted bank balance = (Bank statement balance) - (outstanding checks) +(deposit in transit)

Adjusted Bank Balance = 78,000 - 2,400 + 9,400 = $85,000

Note:

outstanding checks are subtracted because they are payments to be made made by the company, representing a liability to the company (payer)

deposit in transit is an income to the company that has not been credited yet, but that will be credited.

Bond Yields and Rates of Return A 30-year, 10% semiannual coupon bond with a par value of $1,000 may be called in 4 years at a c
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The bond's yield to maturity is 9.45% using Excel to get exact values, and 9.59% using approximate method.

Explanation:

We can calculate is using 2 ways, using Excel to get the exact percentage or with approximate methods, calculating the semi-annual Yield to Maturity using the following formula

YTM_{sm} =\cfrac{PMT+\cfrac{FV-PV}n}{\cfrac{FV+PV}2}

And from there we can calculate the Yield to Maturity just by multiplying the semi-annual one by 2.

Identifying the given information.

We have a period of 30 years, so for the semiannual bond we have n=2(30) = 60 periods.

The face value, FV, is $1000, the coupon rate is 0.10, thus we can use them to  find the interest per period PMT.

PMT=0.10 \times \cfrac{1000}{2}\\PMT=\$ 50

The current price of the bond, PV is $1050.

Replacing the values on the semiannual Yield to Maturity

YTM_{sm} =\cfrac{PMT+\cfrac{FV-PV}n}{\cfrac{FV+PV}2}

YTM_{sm}=\cfrac{50+\cfrac{1000-1050}{60}}{\cfrac{1000+1050}{2}}

Simplifying we get

YTM_{sm}=4.797\%\\

Finding the Yield to Maturity.

We can just multiply by 2 to get the Yield to Maturity from our previous result and rounding it to 2 decimals we get

YTM = 2 YTM_{sm}\\YTM=9.59\%

Alternatively we can use Excel and write:

RATE(n, PMT, PV, FV)*2

That is

RATE(60,50,1050,1000)*2

And we will get the exact Yield to maturity 9.49%
