How much should you pay for a share of stock that offers a constant growth rate of 13%, requires a 18% rate of return, and is ex

marin [14]

Answer:

$44.25

Explanation:

<u>procedure 1:</u>

we can determine the present value of the stock using the following formula:

present value = future value / (1 + constant growth rate)ⁿ

future value = $50
constant growth rate = 13%
n = 1

present value = $50 / (1 + 13%) = $50 / 1.13 = $44.25

<u>procedure 2 (optional):</u>

future value = future dividend / (required rate of return - constant growth rate)

$50 = future dividend / (18% - 13%)

future dividend = $50 x 5% = $2.50

now we must determine the dividend for the current year:

current dividend = future dividend / (1 + constant growth rate)

current dividend = $2.50 / (1 + 13%) = $2.50 / 1.13 = $2.21

now we apply the Gordon growth model:

present value = dividend / (required rate of return - constant growth rate)

present value = $2.21 / (18% - 13%) = $2.21 / 5% = $44.25

Answer:

To Deferred tax liability (8% × $15,000,000) $1,200,000

To Income tax payable ($30,000,000 × 40%) $12,000,000

(Being the income tax expense is recorded)

Explanation:

The compound journal entry is shown below:

Income tax expense (Balancing figure) $13,200,000

To Deferred tax liability (8% × $15,000,000) $1,200,000

To Income tax payable ($30,000,000 × 40%) $12,000,000

Maria Lorenzi owns an ice cream stand that she operates during the summer months in West Yellowstone, Montana. She is unsure how

ddd [48]

Answer:

1. $2,185

2. Percentage increase 14%. Sales decrease -22%

3. $1,805

4. -17.4%

Explanation:

1. In calculating the profit for the first week we will simply deduct the costs from the sales.

= Sales - Fixed Costs - Variable costs

= (1,800 cones * 3.5) - 2,675 - ( 1,800 cones * 0.8)

= 6,300 - 2,675 - 1,440

= $2,185

$2,185 is her profit for the first week.

2. Percentage increase in selling price will be,

= 4-3.5/3.5 * 100%

= 14%

Percentage decrease in sales

= 1,400 - 1,800 / 1,800 * 100%

= -22%

3. Using the first questions method we have,

= (1,400 * 4) - 2,675 - (1,400 * 0.8)

= 5,600 - 2,675 - 1,120

= $1,805

$1,805 is her profit for the second week.

4. Decrease in profit

= $1,805 - $2,185 / 2,185 * 100%

= -17.4%

Maria Lorenzi suffered a decrease in profit of -17.4% as a result of raising her prices by 14%.

On February 1, a customer's account balance of $2,700 was deemed to be uncollectible. What entry should be recorded on February

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

On February 1, a customer's account balance of $2,700 was deemed to be uncollectible.

The entry to be recorded on February 1 to record the write-off assuming the company uses the allowance method is:

Debit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $2,700; credit Accounts Receivable $2,700.

Explanation:

Using the allowance method, every bad debt entry is first reflected in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts before it is taken to the bad debt expense account.

The entries above reduce the Accounts Receivable account by the amount of the write-off and reduces the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts by the same amount. Any recovery of written off debt is also treated in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and the Accounts Receivable account in revised order. This method is unlike the direct write-off method. With the direct write-off method, the Accounts Receivable is credited with the amount of the write-off and the write-off is expensed in the Bad Debts Expense account directly.
