Answer:
Gordon's Pretax return is 13.015%
Explanation:
Dividend yield of Gordon =2.9% =0.029
Tax rate = 35% =0.35
Gordon's after-tax return = Gecko's after-tax return =12
% (This is because the capital gains tax is zero)
Using the formulae
After-tax return of Gordon= Capital gains yield + Dividend yield x (1-tax rate)
0.12 = Capital gains yield + (0.029 x ( 1 - 0.35)
0.12 = Capital gains yield + (0.029 X 0.65)
0.12 = Capital gains yield + 0.01885
Capital gains yield= 0.12 -0.01885 =0.101155
Pretax return is given as
Capital gains yield + Dividend yield
= 0.101155+ 0.029 =0.13015 x 100=13.015%
Therefore, Gordon's Pretax return is 13.015%
Answer:
Net income from special order = $56,400
Blowing Sand Company should accept the order because it will increase net income by $56,400
Explanation:
In order to carry out an incremental analysis, only relevant cash flows should be considered.
The relevant cash flows from accepting the special order are the variable costs and the sales revenue.
Please, note that the fixed costs are not relevant for this decision. Simply because they would be incurred either way.
1. The sales revenue from the order- $30 × 9400 = $282,000
2. the variable cost of production $24 per unit × 9,400 = $225,600
The contribution from the special order would be determined as follows:
Contribution from special order = sales revenue - variable cost
= $282,000 - $225,600
= $56,400
Blowing Sand Company should accept the order
Answer:
The journal entry for the issuance of the stock is shown below:
Explanation:
Land A/c....................................................................................Dr $236,000
Building A/c...............................................................................Dr $378,000
Common Stock A/c..................................................................................Cr $192,000
Paid in Capital in excess of par value of Common stock A/c.......Cr $422,000
Working Note:
Common Stock = Number of shares × Rate per share
= 24,000 × $8
= $192,000
Paid in Capital in excess of par value of Common stock = (Land + Building) - Common Stock
= ($236,000 + $378,000) - $192,000
= $614,000 - $192,000
=$422,000
Answer:
$20,000
Explanation:
Calculation for what will be the balance in the allowance for doubtful accounts after the year-end adjustment to record bad debt expense
Using this formula
Balance in the allowance for doubtful accounts=
(Outstanding Accounts Receivable
* Percentage uncollectible)- Eebit balance of in the allowance for uncollectible accounts.
Let plug in the formula
Balance in the allowance for doubtful accounts=($500,000*8%)-$20,000
Balance in the allowance for doubtful accounts=$40,000-$20,000
Balance in the allowance for doubtful accounts=$20,000
Therefore the balance in the allowance for doubtful accounts after the year-end adjustment to record bad debt expense is $20,000
Answer:
The answer is option (d)$2.76
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
The cost of a particular brand of toothpaste = 4 pounds
The exchange rate = .80
Real exchange rate = 1.16
Now
Real exchange rate is given as:
R = real exchange rate
e = nominal exchange rate
PF = foreign price
P = domestic price
Suppose we say that U.S. is a domestic country and British is a foreign country we have the following formula below:
R = e(PF/P)
R = 1.16
e = 0.80
PF = 4
Thus
R = e(PF/P)
1.16 = 0.80(4/P)
P = 3.2/1.16
= 2.7586207
= $2.76
Therefore, The U.S rice of the same toothpaste is about $2.76
