Answer:

A) -87.50%

Explanation:

The computation of the return on the investment is shown below:

= (Acquired price by JB Morgon - purchase price per share) ÷ (purchase price per share)

= ($11 per share - $88 per share) ÷ (88 per share)

= - ($77 per share) ÷ (88 per share)

= -87.50%

We simply take the difference of the price and then divide it with the purchase price per share so that the correct percentage can come.

Garnett Co. expects to purchase $180,000 of materials in July and $210,000 of materials in August. Three-fourths of all purchase

Savatey [412]

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Explanation:

It is given that Garnett Co. expects to purchase $180,000 of materials in July and $210,000 of materials in August.

Purchase in July = $180,000

Purchase in August = $210,000

Three-fourths of all purchases are paid for in the month of purchase, and the other one-fourth are paid for in the month following the month of purchase.

In August, the cash disbursements for materials purchases be 3/4th of $210,000 (Purchase in August) and 1/4 of $180,000 (Purchase in July).

August's cash disbursements for materials purchases be

$Amount=\frac{3}{4}\times 210000+\frac{1}{4}\times 180000$

$Amount=157500+45000$

$Amount=202500$

The August's cash disbursements for materials purchases be $202500. Therefore the correct option is B.

Answer:

The question is not complete, find below complete question:

Job WR53 at NW Fab, Inc. required $200 of direct materials and 10 direct labor hours at $15 per hour. Estimated total overhead for the years was $760,000 and estimated direct labor hours were 20,000. What would be recorded as the cost of job WR53?

A. $200

B. $350

C. $380

D. $730

The correct option is D, $730 as shown below

Explanation:

Overhead absorption rate is given total overhead /direct labor hours

Overhead absorption rate=$760000/20000

=$38/ labor hour

Hence job WR53 would require $380($38*10 hrs) in overhead cost

The total cost of the job is given as follows:

Direct materials $200

Direct labor cost($15*10) $150

Overhead on the job $380

Total cost $730

The job WR53 would cost $730

In essence, for the job to be profitable, it must be sold at a price beyond $730, otherwise the job might be sold at a loss

Sally has invested $10,000 now and wants to earn a real interest rate of 10% per year. Assume that the inflation rate is 7% per

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Inflation rate= 7%

Real rate of return= 10%

Present value (PV)= $10,000

Number of periods (n)= 10 years

The real rate of return incorporates the effect of the inflation rate. Therefore, the nominal rate of return:

Nominal rate of return= 0.1 + 0.07= 17%

To calculate the Future Value, we need to use the following formula:

FV= PV*(1 + i)^n

FV= 10,000*(1.17^10)

FV= $48,068.28

This is the nominal value received after ten years.

If Sally wants to determine the real value of the investment after 10 years, we must use the real rate of return:

FV= 10,000*(1.1^10)

FV=$25,937.42

The issue of preferred shares on July 1 would result in cash proceeds of $3,422,000.00 i.e (58,000*$59)

The proceeds would be debited to cash while preferred stock account is credited with par amount of $ 2,900,000.00 (58000*$50) and the remaining amount of $ 522,000.00 is credited to paid-in capital in excess of par-preferred stock
