Answer:

d.) discretionary expenses

Explanation:

We can explain going further into what is each item.

<u>A and B are your income </u>(for this question don’t sweat about the difference between gross and realized). They will constitute all the money you have in that period (the period will depend on the regularity of your income, it could be weekly, monthly, etc.).

Your fixed expenses are the things you will expend money on which, no matter what happens, will not change (it could be your rent, tax, health insurance, etc.).

Discretionary expenses, however, are costs that are things that you WANT, not NEED. It could go anywhere from a new shoe to a new boat (if you´re feeling rich, that is lol). That kind of expense will impact your available money (hey, nothing is free) but is not part of your budget as it is not a planned cost.

However, is important to note that if you wanna be super Monica Geller with your money you should forecast your discretionary expenses. Using your history as a base for calculating will eliminate most of the margin error.

Your company has spent $290,000 on research to develop a new computer game. The firm is planning to spend $49,000 on a machine t

Maslowich

Answer:

$132,745.82

Explanation:

required investment = $290,000 + $49,000 + $5,900 + $59,000 = $403,900

depreciable amount = $49,000 + $5,900 = $54,900

Research and development costs are expensed, they cannot be capitalized. Increase in net working capital cannot be capitalized either.

MACRS depreciation expense for year 1 under 8 year class life = 14.29%

depreciation expense year 1 = $54,900 x 14.29% = $7,845.21

net cash flow year 1 = [($390,000 - $190,000 - $7,845.21) x (1 - 35%)] + $7,845.21 = ($192,154.79 x 0.65) + $7,845.21 = $124,900.61 + $7,845.21 = $132,745.82

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The correct words for the blank spaces are: Government purchases; Government Expenditures.

Explanation:

Government purchases refer to the expenses the central government incurs in federal, state, and local agencies. These purchases represent part of the <em>Gross Domestic Product</em> (GDP) of the country considering transfer payments are not including in these expenditures.

When the transfer payments are added to the government purchases the result represents the Government Expenditures. It is one of the factors of the GDP along with private investments, individuals' consumption, and net exports (exports minus imports).

Use the following balance sheet and cash flow statement information to answer the questions below. Liquid assets: $10,000; home

Ilya [14]

Answer:

(a) Liquidity ratio for individuals

basic liquidity ratio = cash assets / monthly expenses = $10,000 / $6,000 = 1.67

Depending on the maturity of the investment assets, the liquidity ratio could increase, but since the information is limited, we can only consider liquid assets. E.g. if the investment assets include bonds that mature in a very short term they should be included in this formula, but if they include bonds that mature in x number of years, then they aren't included.

(b) Asset-to-debt ratio :

generally the formula is debt to asset ratio = $175,500 / $330,000 = 0.53

but here we are asked to find asset to debt = $330,000 / $175,500 = 1.88

debt service to income ratio = monthly payments / gross income = ($250 + $2,100) / $9,000 = $2,350 / $9,000 = 0.26

(d) Debt payments-to-disposable income ratio

debt payments to disposable income ratio = monthly payments / disposable income = ($250 + $2,100) / $6,800 = $2,350 / $6,800 = 0.35

In 2013, Natural Selection, a nationwide computer dating service, had $500 million of assets and $200 million of liabilities. Ea

Allisa [31]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a) Liabilities to equity ratio is

= $200 ÷ ($500 - $200)

= 0.667

Times interest earned ratio is

= EBIT ÷ Interest expense

= $120 ÷ $28

= 4.285

Times burden covered is

= EBIT ÷ (Interest +Principal repayment ÷ ( 1 -tax rate))

= 120 ÷ (28+24 ÷ (1-0.4))

= 1.764

Interest paying requirements

= ($128 - $20) ÷ 120

= 76.7%

Principal and interest requirements

= [$120 - ($28 + $24 ÷ (1-0.4))] ÷ 120

= 0.433 or 43.3%

Principal, Interest and Common dividend payments -

= [$120 - ($28 + (($24 + 0.3 × 20) ÷ (1 - 0.4))] ÷ 120

= 0.35 or 35%
