Suppose the economy is in a recession. The economy needs to expand by at least $350 billion, and the marginal propensity to cons
MissTica

Answer:

$140

Explanation:

Calculation for What is the least amount the government can spend to overcome the $350 billion gap

First step is to find the Multiplier using this formula

Multiplier=1(1-Marginal propensity)

Let plug in the formula

Multiplier=1/(1-0.6)

Multiplier=1/0.4

Multiplier=2.5

Now let calculate the least amount the government can spend using this formula

Least amount=Gap/Multiplier

Let plug in the formula

Least amount=$350 billion /2.5

Least amount=$140

Therefore the least amount the government can spend to overcome the $350 billion gap is $140

Identify the internal control weakness in the following situations. State how the person can hurt the company.
Degger [83]

Answer:

Identification of the Internal Control Weaknesses:

A.  There is no segregation of duties and there is lack of access control.  Jerry Miller as a security guard is not expected to have a master key to the cash box.  With this he can pilfer the cash.  If he prepares the report that shows the number of cars that parked on the lot, he is not supposed to also prepare the day's cash receipts.  Otherwise, he can state any number of cars as parked that he likes, and which corresponds to the cash he might leave in the Cash box since he also has a master key.

B.  There is no segregation of duties and there is lack of supervision,  proper reconciliations, and assets audit.  Sharon Fisher handles purchase transactions from the beginning to the close all alone with a third party.  This exposes the company to procurement frauds and collusion with suppliers.  She can purchase assets for the company at prices that would enrich her personally.

C. Forming an audit opinion on the basis of ratio analysis of last year's comparative financial statements exposes the company to audit risks.  While ratio analysis is part of the basis for forming audit opinions, it is surely not the first audit procedure to obtain audit evidence to support his audit opinion on the financial statements.  An auditor is expected to obtain sufficient audit evidence and perform audit substantive tests of financial statement assertions.  He or she is also expected to review the internal control system to ensure that it is operating effectively after establishing its existence and reviewing changes in internal controls.

Explanation:

Internal Controls are controls established by management in order to help it achieve business goals.  There are many internal controls, including Separation of Duties, Access Controls , Authorization and Approvals, Asset Audits, Reconciliations, and Data Backups.  The purposes of internal controls are to establish the reliability of financial reporting, ensure timely feedback on the achievement of operational or strategic goals, and achieve compliance with financial management laws, and accounting regulations.

3-30 Operating leverage. Cover Rugs is holding a 2-week carpet sale at Josh’s Club, a local warehouse store. Cover Rugs plans to
Leni [432]

Answer:

The step by step answer to your problem is given below:

Explanation:

1A) Break even point for option 1:    

Sales- Variable cost= Fixed cost    

Q* $950-Q*$760= $7410    

Q*$190= $7410  

Q=$7410/$190  

Q= 39 carpets

1B) Breakeven point for Option 2    

Sales- variable cost-rent cost= 0    

Q*$950- $760*Q- (Q*950*10%)= 0    

95Q= 0    

Q= 0

2. At what level of revenues will Cover Rugs earn the same operating income under either option?

Operating income under Option 1 = $190Q - $7140

Operating income under Option 2 = $95Q

We have to find Q such that $190Q - $7140 = $95Q

Q=$7410/$95= 78 Carpets

Revenue= $950 x 78 = $74,100

For Q = 78 Carpets, operating income under both option 1 and 2 will be = $7410

a. For what range of unit sales will Cover Rugs prefer Option 1? b. For what range of unit sales will Cover Rugs prefer Option 2?

For Q > 78, say 79 carpets:

Option 1 gives operating income= (190*79) - 7410= $7600

Option 2 gives operating income= 95*79= $7505

So color rugs will prefer Option 1.

For Q < 78, say 77 carpets:

Option 1 gives operating income= (190*77) - 7410= $7220

Option 2 gives operating income= 95*77= $7315

So color rugs will prefer Option 2.

3. Calculate the degree of operating leverage at sales of 65 units for the two rental options.

Operating Leverage= \frac{Contribution margin}{Operating Income}

= Contribution margin per unit x Numbers of Carpet Sold= Contribution Margin

Under Option 1,

Contribution Margin per unit= $950-$760=$190,

Operating income= $190*65-$7410= $4940.

Degree of Operating Leverage= \frac{190*65}{6175}

=2.5

Under Option 2,

Contribution Margin per unit= $950-$760-$760-0.10*$950=$95,

Operating income= $95x65-$0= $6175.

\frac{95*65}{6175}

=1.0

4. Briefly explain and interpret your answer to requirement 3.

The degree of operating leverage helps managers calculate and anticipate the effects of fluctuations in sales on operating income. The calculation in requirement 3 show that when sales are 65 units, a % change in sales and contribution margin will result in 2.5 times that % change in operating income for option 1. But the same % change in Option 2 because there are no fix costs attached in option 2.

Bank A quotes a bid rate of $0.300 and an ask rate of $0.305 for the Malaysian ringgit (MYR). Bank B quotes a bid rate of $0.306
Artemon [7]

Answer: $1639.3

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Bank A quotes a bid rate of $0.300 and an ask rate of $0.305 for the Malaysian ringgit (MYR) and that bank B quotes a bid rate of $0.306 and an ask rate of $0.310 for the ringgit.

The profit for an investor that has $500,000 available to conduct locational arbitrage goes thus:

Purchasing Malaysian ringgit (MYR) from bank A at the ask rate will be:

= $500,000/$0.305

= 1,639,344.3

Selling the Malaysian ringgit (MYR) at bank B based on the ask rate will be:

= 1,639,344.3 × 0.306

= $501,639.3

The profit for an investor that has $500,000 available to conduct locational arbitrage will be:

= $501,639.3 - $500,000

= $1639.3

fiasKO [112]

Complete Question:

Jon is a cash-basis taxpayer and has adjusted gross income of $40,000 in 2018. During the year he incurred and paid the following medical expenses.

Drugs and medicines prescribed by doctors $300

Health insurance premiums $750

Doctors' fees $2,250

Eyeglasses $75

How much medical expense can he deduct as itemized deduction?

Answer:

Jon

Medical expense that Jon can deduct as itemized deduction:

= $375

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Adjusted gross income = $40,000

Incurred medical expenses:

Drugs and medicines prescribed by doctors $300

Health insurance premiums $750

Doctors' fees $2,250

Eyeglasses $75

Total  = $3,375

Under Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), the medical expenses which can be deducted as an itemized deduction on the federal income tax return are only to the extent that they exceed 7.5% of adjusted gross income (AGI).

7.5% of $40,000 = $3,000

Therefore, Jon can itemize deduction of $375 in medical expense.
