Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": None of the above.

Explanation:

<em>Even if John has no direct either indirect influence in the business it is not suitable for him to accept the gift from his friend</em>. The position John's friend has in the supplier company is unknown which implies his friend could play a managerial role, therefore, it is better to avoid any type of action that could be a signal of preference towards that company.

Besides, John works in accounting which is an administrative department of the business, thus, John should be extra careful in his actions regardless of the influence he might have in the firm.

Three individuals, Mary, Jack and Helen, make up the total demand for donuts per month in a particular market.
Paraphin [41]

The market demand curve would be 1000 - 0.125Q.

<h3>How to calculate the demand curve?</h3>

It should be noted that the market demand curve will be the sum of the individual demand curve.

The market demand curve will be calculated thus. Mary’s demand curve is 5P = 5000 – 1.25QM. Here, p = 1000 - 0.25QM

Jack’s demand curve for donuts is given by P = 1000 – 0.5QJ. Helen’s demand curve is given by QH = 2000 – 2P. This will be P = 1000 - 0.5QH.

The slope will be:

= 0.5 × 0.25

= 0.15

The demand function of Jack and Helen are the same. The demand curve will be 1000 - 0.125Q.

XYZ Company earned operating income of $1,500,000 before income taxes. Capital employed equaled $10,000,000, of which $1,000,000
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

The answer is creating wealth, with the economic value added is $390,000

Explanation:

The company WACC is: Percentage of mortgage bond in capital employed x Cost of mortgage bond x ( 1 - tax rate) + Percentage of unsecured bond in capital employed x Cost of unsecured bond x ( 1 - tax rate) + Percentage of common stock in capital employed x cost of common stock

In which:  Percentage of mortgage bond in capital employed = 1,000,000/10,000,000 = 10%

Percentage of unsecured bond in capital employed = 3,000,000/10,000,000 = 30%;

Percentage of common stock in capital employed = (10,000,000 - 1,000,000 - 3,000,000) /10,000,000 = 60%

Cost of common stock = Risk free rate + Risk premium = 10% + 5% = 15%;

Tax rate = 40%

Thus, WACC = 10% x 8% x ( 1- 40%) + 30% x 9% x (1-40%) + 60% x 15% = 11.10%.

Thus, Capital cost per year: Capital employed x WACC = 10,000,000 x 11.10% = $1,110,000.

Economic value added = Operating Income - Capital cost = 1,500,000 - 1,110,000 = $390,000.

g Cathy Rogers deposits $200 in currency in her checking account at a bank. This deposit is treated as:
Step2247 [10]

Answer: 4) No change in the money supply because the $200 in currency has been converted to a $200 increase in checkable deposits

Explanation:

The money supply refers to the total amount of money currently in circulation. In this instance it remains the same because no new money was introduced into the economy.

All that has happened is that Ms. Rogers took her $200 which was already in circulation and part of money supply and deposited it in her checking account. The money is therefore still in circulation, just not in immediate cash.

Money supply therefore remains the same.
