natita [175]

Answer:

FINISHING TOUCHES

Balance Sheet  December 31, 2015

(Stockholders’ Equity Section)

Stockholders’ equity:

Common stock  = $100,000

Preferred stock  =  $30,000

Treasury stock  = -$5,500

Additional paid-in capital  = $3,216,000

Total paid-in capital  = $3,340,500

Retained earnings  = $63,100

(Preferred stock  = -$,30,000)

Total stockholders’ equity = $3,373,600

Explanation:

a) 100,000 Common stock issued at $35 per share with $1 par is valued at $1 in the Common Stock section while the difference $34 $(35 - 1) is taken to the Additional paid-in capital at 100,000 x $34.

b) 3,000 Preferred Stock  issued at $11 per share with $10 par is valued at $10 in the Preferred Stock while the difference $1 $(11 - 10) is taken to the Additional paid-in capital at 3,000 x $1.

c) Treasury stock is the repurchase of stock by the company.  It is a contra account to the equity accounts.  It is therefore deducted from the equity section.  Two methods exist for its treatment: the cost method and the par value treatment.  We used the par value treatment.

This involves stating the par value movements in the Treasury stock while  the additional loss or additional gain is taken to the Additional Paid-in Capital section.

On the other hand, the cost method treats the cost of repurchase in the Treasury stock.

d) Additional Paid-in Capital (APIC) account records the above par value received.  It is also where the above par value is deducted for Treasury Stock.

e) Retained Earnings represent the net income after paying dividends to common stockholders and preferred stockholders.

f) To get the total stockholders' equity, the preferred stock is deducted.  Holders of preferred stock are not equity holders.

Is the concept of a team bonding through the subjugation and humiliation of some of its junior members valid, or do these behavi
NARA [144]
Team bonding through the subjugation of junior members is not valid. Junior members should be encouraged by the senior members to strive for the team, not belittled or humiliated in the process. Different people assume comradery in different ways, some through degradation or laughter, and others through positivity and cohesiveness, but subjugation and humiliation should never be a factor when building teams, especially in today’s society since we live in such a diverse culture in this country. If an organization relied on humiliating banter in order to form a collective unit, then it shows that the organization is less cohesive and reflects poor management and leadership skills within the organization.

A University of Iowa basketball standout is offered a choice of contracts by the New York Liberty.
Ratling [72]

Answer: <em>The lowest interest rate at which the present value of the second contract exceeds that of the first is </em><em>a. 7 percent</em><em>.</em>

Explanation:

<em>Calculating present values is a useful way to compare cases where money is to be received in the future. The higher the present value (when comparing cases where you get money), the better</em>. To calculate it, we make use of the next formula:

PV=\frac{C}{(1+r)^{n}}

Where PV: Present value,

C: Cash flow at a given period,

r: Interest rate, and

n: Number of periods that will have passed (in this case, we are talking about years).

Now, since we are getting money twice in each case (the first payment one year from today, and the final payment two years from today), we can restructure our present value formula to include these two payments. We will get something like this:

PV=\frac{C_1}{1+r}+\frac{C_2}{(1+r)^{2}}

<em>Notice how each fraction represents one of the payments received, with one having an 'n' of 1 year, and the other one having an 'n' of 2 years. C₁ and C₂ represent the first and the second payment, respectively.</em>

<em />

Now that we have our completed formula, let's review each contract's present value (PV) with the lowest interest rate (7%), just to see how it turns out. <em>Remember that 7% equals 0.07 in any formula</em>:

<em>Contract A) This one gives her $100,000 one year from today and $100,000 two years from today</em><em>.</em>

PV_{A,0.07}=\frac{100000}{1+0.07}+\frac{100000}{(1+0.07)^{2}}\\PV_{A,0.07}=93457.944+87343.873\\PV_{A,0.07}=180801.817dollars

So Contract A's present value at 7% interest rate would be equal to <em>$180801.817</em>.

<em>Contract B) The second one gives her $132,000 one year from today and $66,000 two years from today</em><em>.</em>

PV_{B,0.07}=\frac{132000}{1+0.07}+\frac{66000}{(1+0.07)^{2}}\\PV_{B,0.07}=123364.486+57646.956\\PV_{B,0.07}=181011.442dollars

So Contract B's present value at 7% interest rate would be equal to <em>$181011.442, </em><em><u>which exceeds that of Contract A</u></em><em>.</em>

<em>Since among our options of interest rates, 7 percent is the lowest one, and, with this taken into account, the present value of the second contract (Contract B) exceeded that of the first (Contract A), </em><em>the answer is a. 7 percent</em><em>.</em>

A company desires to sell a sufficient quantity of products to earn a profit of $280000. If the unit sales price is $16, unit va
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

$270,000

Explanation:

Data provided

Quantity of products = $280,000

Total fixed costs = $800,000

Unit sales price = $16

Variable cost = $12

The computation of units must be sold is shown below:-

Contribution per unit = $16 - $12

= $4 per unit

Units must be sold = (Quantity of products + Total fixed costs) ÷ Contribution per unit

= ($280,000 + $800,000) ÷ $4

= $1,080,000 ÷ $4

= $270,000
