Answer:

When a company sells different securities together (this usually happens during mergers and acquisitions):

  1. and the price of all the securities is not certain, the incremental method will first allocate proceeds to the sale of securities whose price is actually certain. The remaining proceeds will be allocated to the securities whose price is uncertain. E.g. total sales $10 million, stocks worth $5 million were sold and bonds worth ? million were sold. The company will allocate $5 million to stocks and $5 million to bonds.
  2. and the price of all the securities is certain, the proportional method allocates the sales proceeds proportionally among the different securities sold. E.g. total sales $10 million, stocks worth $5 million were sold and bonds worth $3 million were sold. The company will allocate ($5/$8) x $10 million = $6.25 million to stocks and $3.75 to bonds.

elena55 [62]

Answer:

Promissory agreement and Deed of trust.

Explanation:

In this scenario, Seller Dayne was made aware by the trustee that the lender was wanting to proceed with foreclosure on his property. The type of financial agreement that Seller Dayne have with this lender is a Promissory agreement and Deed of trust.

A promissory agreement can be defined as an evidence of a debt and as such involves the use of a legal financial tool such as a promissory note as a written promise to declare that a party (borrower) would pay another (lender) at a specific period of time.

On the other hand, a deed of trust can be defined as a legal document used by a party (borrower) to pledge his or her property to another party (lender) as guarantee or collateral for the repayment of a loan. The deed of trust is typically made up of three (3) parties; the lender, borrower and a trustee.

Additionally, a foreclosure on a property refers to a legal procedure whereby the property being pledged by a borrower for a debt is sold to pay off the debt as a result of defaulting in payments or terms with respect to a loan.

Suppose that a 10 percent increase in the physical capital stock increases GDP by 10 percent. Nowconsider an additional 10 perce
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

B. Less than 10%

Explanation:

An addition increase by 10 % in the physical capital stock (which is a factor of production consisting of man made goods like machineries and so on) will lead to a less than 10% increase in the Gross domestic product. This is due to the law of diminishing marginal utility which talks about the consumption increases marginal utility from each additional unit declines. Thus, the more the physical capital stock increases, the GDP will increase at a decreasing rate.

Jimmer’s nominal income will go up by 10 percent next year. Inflation is expected to be – 2 percent next year. By approximately
kompoz [17]

Answer:

Nominal interest rate (n) = 10% = 0.10

Inflation rate (i) = -2% = -0.02  

Real interest rate (r) = ?  

Application of Fisher's Equation                                                      

(I + n) =   (1 + r)(1 + i)

(1 + 0.10)  = (1 + r)(1 + -0.02)

1.10 = (1 + r)(0.98)

<u>1.10</u> = 1 + r

0.98

1.1224 = 1 + r

1.1224 - 1 = r      

r = 0.1224 = 12.24%

Jimmer's real income will change by 12.24% next year.                                                                                                                                                

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       

Explanation:

In the determination of the rate of change in real income, there is need          to apply Fisher's equation. The nominal rate and inflation rate have been given, thus, we will make the real rate the subject of the formula.

The city of New Orleans has 200 advertising companies, 199 of which employ designers of normal ability at a salary of $100,000 a
zepelin [54]

Answer:

a. $700,000

b. 6/7 or 85.7%

c. No they will not.

Explanation:

a. Jacobs will earn the normal salary that the other designers in the other companies are getting in addition to the incremental income he brings to the company as a result of his talents.

Incremental income = Revenue with Jacobs - Revenue without Jacobs

= 1,000,000 - 400,000

= $600,000

Jacobs earnings = Normal designer earnings + incremental income

= 100,000 + 600,000

= $700,000

b. Economic rent is the excess amount that the company is paying Jacobs over what it should normally cost to get a designer.

Normal cost of designer is $100,000. Company is therefore paying an economic rent of $600,000.

Proportion of Jacobs salary that is economic rent = \frac{Economic rent}{Jacobs annual earning}

= \frac{600,000}{700,000}

= 6/7 or 85.7%

c. The company hiring Jacobs will not be making an economic profit because for them to make an economic profit they would have to be making more than the $400,000 that the other firms make. They cannot make this amount because for them to do so they would have to reduce the amount they pay Jacobs. If they do so, Jacobs would leave for greener pastures and then they would be making the same $400,000 that the rest are making.

Explain the requirements for putting together an Affirmative Action Plan (AAP). Include a discussion on mandatory and non-mandat
Sedbober [7]
Once a company reaches 50 or more employees, and meets any of the below criteria, it has 120 days to create an Affirmative Action Plan. Every year the company remains larger than 50 employees and meets the federal contracts guidelines listed below, it is required to update the plan to track changes in employee population and employee transactions.

In some instances, companies are required to implement an Affirmative Action Plan without a direct government contract. If government contractors purchase at least $50,000 worth of goods to fulfill their obligations on a government contract, then the goods’ seller is also subject to the OFFCP’s laws.

A prime example is a hardware company which sells screws to a company that builds Navy submarines. Although there’s no direct contract with the government for the hardware company, accepting the order as part of a government contract makes it a bill of lading, and if it exceeds $50,000 total revenue on those deals, then both sides must comply with Affirmative Action law.
