Answer: d) Cannot sue Bob for misrepresentation

Explanation: A misrepresentation is a false statement made from one person to another that a certain fact is true or accurate when it is indeed false. The fact that the value of the stock I bought on Bob's opinion does not give me the right to sue him for misrepresentation (intentional). The reason is this, Bob's expression of his opinion concerning the HotNet stock does not usually constitute a misrepresentation even when it turns out that his opinion is incorrect. It wasn't intended, however, he could be sued for negligent misrepresentation.

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $2.15 per direct labor hour

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

It takes 80,900 direct labor hours to manufacture the X-1 and 93,500 direct labor hours to manufacture the X-2 Line.

Total overhead= 225,000 + 149,960=  $374,960

To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 374,960 / (80,900 + 93,500)

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $2.15 per direct labor hour

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

$1,035,459.51

Explanation:

First we must determine the issuing value:

  • cash flow 1 = $60,000
  • cash flow 1 = $60,000
  • cash flow 1 = $60,000
  • cash flow 1 = $60,000
  • cash flow 1 = $1,060,000

using an excel spreadsheet to calculate the bond's price with a discount value of 5%:

the bonds were sold at $1,043,294.77

the effective interest expense = bond's price x market interest = $1,043,294.77  x 5% = $52,164.74

bond's value = bond's price - (coupon payment - effective interest) = $1,043,294.77 - ($60,000 - $52,164.74) = $1,035,459.51

Archy [21]

Answer:

The amount of loss should Jacob Inc. record on December 31, 2019 is $38,000

Explanation:

Truck Value =  $48,000

Annual depreciation =   ( $48,000 -   $8,000) / 8 = $40,000 / 8= $5,000

First year (2018) = $40,000 - $5,000 =  $35,000

Second year (2019) = $35,000 - $5,000 =  $30,000

Loss  = Truck Value (actual) + estimated residual value=  $30,000 + $8,000 = $38,000
