Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

Internal rate of return abbreviated as  IRR, is a capital budgeting technique used to evaluate the profitability of a potential project or an investment. In calculating the IRR,  the net present value of the project's cash inflows is set at zero.  Getting the actual value of the IRR is through trial and error, or specially programmed software.

IRR shows the growth rate a project or an investment is expected to generate. The higher the value, the better. As a rule, only projects whose IRR is greater than the minimum required rate of return should be accepted. The required rate of return is the same as the cost of capital for the project.

storchak [24]

Answer:

Ending Inventory Units = 500 + 6700 - 6000 = 1200 units

Equivalent units for Material = Units completed and transferred*100% + Ending Inventory units*50% = 6000*100% + 1200*50%

= 6000 + 600 = 6600 units

Cost per equivalent unit for materials = (Beginning Material cost + Material cost incurred during the month) / Equivalent units for Material

= ($5800 + $125600) / 6600

= $19.91

Hence, third option is correct.

Indigo Inc. owns land that it purchased on January 1, 2000, for $418,200. At December 31, 2017, its current value is $679,700 as
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

$679,700

Explanation:

I believe Mickelson is the person preparing the books for Indigo Inc.

This question tests your knowledge of revaluation and its application to financial statements. It indirectly checks your knowledge of depreciation also.

A quick definition of terms would make it clearer.

Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the price of an asset over its useful life. That is once an asset (non-current) is purchased, it cannot be used up immediately in one financial year, hence accountants usually want to spread the use of the asset and match it with whatever revenue they get from the use of the asset (an application of prudence concept).

But land does not depreciate, rather it appreciates over time. Due to the fact that land appreciates over time, it would be misrepresentation on the part of Mickelson to report the value of the asset in December 2017 at the price in which the land was purchased in 2000.

Because land appreciates over time, a revaluation is more appropriate. this revaluation compares the carrying value of the land with the fair value on the land as at the date of revaluation (comparing $418,200 with $679,700) and the higher is used.

Hence to faithfully represent the current details of the status of the land, the IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) states that the entity should record the value of land at fair value.

I hope this is clear and easy to understand.

Other concepts you might want to check out are;

depreciation

carrying amount

revaluation surplus

fair value

Debt Book Equity Market Equity Operating Income Interest Expense Firm A 500 300 400 100 50 Firm B 80 35 40 8 7 1. What is the ma
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Data for Question

<u>Debt</u>  <u>Book Equity</u>  <u>Market Equity</u>  <u>Operating Income</u>  <u>Interest Expense</u>

Firm A

500       300                  400                       100                          50

Firm B

80          35                    40                           8                             7

1.

Market debt-to-equity ratio = Debt of Firm / Market Equity

Firm A = 500 /400 = 1.25

Firm B = 80 / 40 = 2

2.

Book debt-to-equity ratio = Debt of Firm / Book Equity

Firm A = 500 /300 = 1.67

Firm B = 80 / 35 = 2.29

3.

Interest coverage ratio = Operating Income / Interest Expense

Firm A = 100 /50 = 2

Firm B = 8 / 7 = 1.14

4.

Firm B will have more difficulty meeting its debt obligations because it has higher debt equity ratio and lower interest coverage ratio than Firm A.

suppose that you have an option to hire a consultant who has the ability to predict the future with 100 percent accuracy. using
Advocard [28]

Answer: d. No, because EVPI is $25, which is less than the consultant's fee of $30

Explanation:

The expected value with the consultant's input is $200 and the expected value without it is $175.

The difference of $25 is the maximum that the consultant should be paid because anything larger than this would result in an opportunity loss because if the consultant is paid $30, the net return earned will be $170 which is $5 lower than what would have been earned without her input.

The $30 is simply not worth it.
