Banc Corp. Trust is considering either a bankwide overhead rate or department overhead rates to allocate $396,000 of indirect co
joja [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated overhead= $396,000

Department:

Consumer= 700

Commercia= 300

To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 396,000/1,000= $396 per loan processed.

Now, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 396*300= $118,800

Consider a mutual fund with $260 million in assets at the start of the year and 10 million shares outstanding. The fund invests
Ugo [173]

Answer: $26; $28.057

Explanation:

Total value = $260 million in assets

Shares outstanding = 10 million

Dividends = $2.5 million

Fund value at the start of the year = \frac{Total\ value}{No.\ of\ shares\ outstanding}

                                                         = \frac{260}{10}

                                                         = $26

Fund value at the end of the year:

Dividend per share = \frac{Dividends}{No\ of\ shares}

                                = \frac{2.5}{10}              

                                = $0.25

Price gain at 9% with deduction of 1% of 12b-1

Fund value at the end of the year = $26 × 1.09 × (1 - 0.01)

                                                        = $28.057

Diversification is most effective when security returns are _________. a. high b. negatively correlated c. positively correlated
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer: Option B  

                       

Explanation: In simple words, diversification refers to the process of allocating capital in different investments to reduce the overall risk of the investment portfolio.

Therefore, analyst tries to make portfolio in such a way that securities will be negatively correlated. If two securities are negatively correlated then the decrease of one will lead to proportionate increase of others.

This ensures that the investors money will not be depreciated but at the same time the potential for abnormal returns also decreases.

Coffee Corporation has 2,000 shares of common stock outstanding. John owns 700 of the shares, John’s grandfather owns 100 shares
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

1,000 shares

Explanation:

The 318 attribution rule states that stock owned directly or indirectly by a partnership is considered to be owned by any partner that owns 5% or more in the business.

This is relevant to family owned businesses and is a way to mark out principal owners of a business in order to avoid tax evasion and fraud.

In this scenario John directly owns 700 of the outstanding shares. But according to the 318 attribution rule, since he he is a 50% partner he owns half of the outstanding 2,000 shares. That is 1,000 shares.
