Answer:
The correct answer is letter "D": smaller, community banks.
Explanation:
The Great Recession is the economic fall that occurred between 2007 and 2009 as a result of the housing bubble burst in the U.S. During this period many well-known firms such as <em>Chrysler, General Motors, </em>and <em>Lehman Brothers</em> filed for bankruptcy. However, not all the business experienced a downturn.
A study conducted by the <em>Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis</em> (2013) indicates that 417 <em>banks and thrift institutions</em> failed between 2006 and 2011 but 702 <em>small community banks</em> reported total assets of around $10 billion by allowing individuals to benefit from loans. Banks and thrift institutions were too conservative in loans during the Great Recession which was interpreted in lower revenues.
The question is incomplete:
A consumer values a car at $30,000 and a producer values the same car at $20,000. If the transaction is completed at $24,000, what level of sales tax will result in unconsummated transaction?
a. 0%
b. 25%
c. 20%
d. 40%
Answer:
d. 40%
Explanation:
The unconsummated transaction would occur when the price that the customer has to pay is higher than the value that he gave to the car. According to that, the answer would be the tax that would increase the final price to more than $30,000:
0%: $24,000
25%: 24,000*1.25= $30,000
20%: 24,000*1.20= $28,800
40%: 24,000*1.40= $33,600
The answer is that the amount of tax will result in an unconsummated transaction is 40%.
Answer:
$88,000
Explanation:
The computation of the pension expense for the year is shown below:
Service Cost $100,000
Add: Interest Cost $60,000 ($750,000 × 8%)
Add: Amortization of prior service cost $6,000
Add: Amortization of net loss $2,000
Less Expected return on plan assets $80,000 ($800,000 × 10%)
Pension Expense $88,000
We simply deduct the expected return on plant assets and the other values would be added to the service cost so that the pension expense could come
Answer:
- The journal to record the write-off is:
Debit Allowance for doubtful accounts $6,400
Credit Accounts receivable $6,400
- Cash realizable value of the accounts receivable (1) before the write-off is $670,300 (2) after the write-off is $670,300.
Explanation:
- The write-off would impact the allowance for doubtful accounts and the accounts receivable since Bramble Corp. uses the allowance method. See the journals as recorded above.
- The balance in the allowance for doubtful accounts would have reduced by $6,400 upon the write-off, so did the balance in the accounts receivable, so the effect of the write-off evens out. That led to the cash realizable value of $670,300.
Answer: $87780
Explanation:
The monthly financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of accepting this special order will be calculated thus:
Sales = $295020
Less Cost:
Material = $162030
Labor = $31020
Variable manufacturing = $7920
Variable selling = $6720
Total cost = $207240
Financial Advantage = $295020 - $207240
= $87780
