A University is offering a charitable gift program. A former student who is now 50 years old is consider the following offer: Th

e student can invest $8,900.00 today and then will be paid a 9.00% APR return starting on his 65th birthday (i.e For a $10,000 investment, a 9% rate would mean $900 per year). The program will pay the cash flow for this investment while you are still alive. You anticipate living 21.00 more years after your 65th birthday. The former student wants a return of 6.00% on his investments, but would like to consider this opportunity.

Answer:

The value of this deferred annuity today on his 50th birthday is <u>$2,621.27</u>.

Explanation:

Since the student's desired return of 6% will also start to be paid starting on his 65th birthday, the value of this deferred annuity today on his 50th birthday can be calculated by first calculating the value of the investment on the 65th birthday.

We therefore proceed with the following two steps:

Step 1: Calculation of the value of the investment on the 65th birthday

The value of the investment on the 65th birthday can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:

PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)

Where;

PV at 65 = Present value of the annuity at 65th birthday =?

P = Annuity payment = Invested amount * Student's desired return = $8,900 * 6% = $534

r = Student's desired return rate = 6%, or 0.06

n = number of more years anticipate to live after 65th birthday = 21

Substitute the values into equation (1) to have:

PV at 65 = $534 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.06))^21) / 0.06)

PV at 65 = $534 * 11.764076621288

PV at 65 = $6,282.02

Therefore, the value of the investment on the 65th birthday is $6,282.02.

Step 2: Calculation of the value of this deferred annuity today on his 50th birthday

The value of this deferred annuity today on his 50th birthday can therefore be calculated using the simple present value for as follows:

PV at 50 = PV at 65 / (1 + r)^N …………………………….. (2)

Where;

PV at 50 = the value of this deferred annuity today on his 50th birthday = ?

PV at 65 = Present value of the annuity at 65th birthday = $6,282.02

r = Student's desired return rate = 6%, or 0.06

N = number of years from 50th birthday to 65th birthday = 65 - 50 = 15

Substitute the values into equation (2) to have:

PV at 50 = $6,282.02 / (1 + 0.06)^15

PV at 50 = $6,282.02 / 2.39655819309969

PV at 50 = $2,621.27

Therefore, the value of this deferred annuity today on his 50th birthday is <u>$2,621.27</u>.

Answer:

Explanation:

Opportunity Cost is the cost of next best alternative foregone, while choosing an alternative. This arises because of 'choice' problem, due to unlimited wants & limited resources - having alternative uses.

Southwest Pediatrics has the following balances on December 31, 2021, before any adjustment: Accounts Receivable = $121,000; All
kogti [31]

Answer:

Bad debt expense  $ 26,300

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts   $ 26,300

Explanation:

Initial Balance  

Accounts Receivable  $ 121,000

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts   $ 2,100 - Debit

Bad Debts Expense =  20% / Accounts Receivable $ 24,200

Adjusting Entry

Bad debt expense  $ 26,300

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts   $ 26,300

Final Balance  

Accounts Receivable  $ 121,000

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts   $ 24,200 - Credit

Accounts Uncollectible are those credit that the company give and there are not chances of been collected.

When the customers buy products on credits but then the company can't collect the debt, then it's necessary to write off the unpaid bill as uncollectible

One way it's to write-off directly the bad debts at the moment decided that the credit are uncollectible, the total amount it's reported as bad debt expenses which affect negativly the income statement and the accounts receivable are reduce in the same amount, less assets.

The other way it's to determine a percentage of total amount of accounts receivables as uncollectible, exist many ways to analize the accounts receivable and figure the value of uncollectible.

When the company have the percentage of uncollectible accounts the journal entry required is Bad Expenses (debit) with Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (credit)

At the moment of the write-off as the expenses were before recognized we only use the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (Debit) with Accounts Receivable (Credit), with this we are recognizing the uncollectible credit of the company.

Explanation:

given data

mean = 500

standard deviation = 300

cost = $10

price = $25

Inventory  salvaged = $5

to find out

What is its maximum profit

solution

we get here maximum profit that is express as

maximum profit = mean × ( price - cost )   ..................................1

put here value in equation 1 we get maximum profit

maximum profit = mean × ( price - cost )

maximum profit = 500 × ( $25 - $10 )

maximum profit = 500 × $15

maximum profit = $7500

so correct option is c  $7500
