Answer:
Rental income = $1,757 billion
Explanation:
National income is defined as the value of goods and services that a nation produces within a financial year.
Therefore it is made up of all economic actives that the nation is involved in.
The gross domestic product is a measure of the national income.
The formula for national income is given below
National income = employees compensation + proprietors' income + corporate profits + rental income +net interest
5,000 billion = 1,105 billion + 1,520 billion + 490 billion + rental income + 128 billion
Rental income = 5,000 billion - 3,243 billion
Rental income = $1,757 billion
Bonita Beauty Corporation manufactures cosmetic products that are sold through a network of sales agents. The agents are paid a commission of 18% of sales. The income statement for the year ending December 31, 2014, is as follows.
BONITA BEAUTY CORPORATION
Income Statement For the Year Ended December 31, 2014
Sales $75,000,000
Cost of goods sold
Variable $31,500,000
Fixed 8,610,000 40,110,000
Gross margin $34,890,000

Operating income $11,130,000
The company is considering hiring its own sales staff to replace the network of agents. It will pay its salespeople a commission of 8% and incur additional fixed costs of $7,500,000.
Under the current policy of using a network of sales agents, calculate the Bonita Beauty Corporation
Answer: $56,040,000
Explanation:
Here is the question:
1.Under the current policy of using a network of sales agents, calculate the Bonita Beauty Corporation's break-even point in sales dollars for the year.
Sales = $75,000,000
Less: variable cost = $75,000,000 + ($75,000,000 × 8%) = $31,500,000 + $6,000,000 = $37,500,000
Contribution margin = $37,500,000
Fixed cost = 10,260,000 + 10,260,000 + 7,500,000 = $28,020,000
Operating income = $11,130,000
Contribution margin = 0.5
Break even point in sales will now be:
= Fixed cost/contribution margin ratio
= $28,020,000/0.5
= $56,040,000

Precision Systems manufactures CD burners and currently sells 18,500 units annually to producers of laptop computers. Jay Wilson, president of the company, anticipates a 15 percent increase in the cost per unit of direct labor on January 1 of next year. He expects all other costs and expenses to remain unchanged. Wilson has asked you to assist him in developing the information he needs to formulate a reasonable product strategy for next year.
You are satisfied that volume is the primary factor affecting costs and expenses and have separated the semivariable costs into their fixed and variable segments. Beginning and ending inventories remain at a level of 1,000 units. Current plant capacity is 20,000 units. The following are the current-year data assembled for your analysis.
Sales price per unit $100
Variable costs per unit:
Direct materials $10
Direct labor $20
Manufacturing overhead and selling and administrative expenses 30 60
Contribution margin per unit (40%) $40
Fixed costs $390,000
Required:
a. What increase in the selling price is necessary to cover the 15 percent increase in direct labor cost and still maintain the current contribution margin ratio of 40 percent?
b. How many units must be sold to maintain the current operating income of $350,000 if the sales price remains at $100 and the 15 percent wage increase goes into effect?
c. Wilson believes that an additional $700,000 of machinery (to be depreciated at 20 percent annually) will increase present capacity (20,000 units) by 25 percent. If all units produced can be sold at the present price of $100 per unit and the wage increase goes into effect, how would the estimated operating income before capacity is increased compare with the estimated operating income after capacity is increased? Prepare schedules of estimated operating income at full capacity before and after the expansion.
Answer:
a. What increase in the selling price is necessary to cover the 15 percent increase in direct labor cost and still maintain the current contribution margin ratio of 40 percent?
estimated production costs per unit:
direct materials $10
direct labor $23
overhead $30
total $63
if we want contribution margin to remain at 40%, then selling price = $63 / (1 - 40%) = $105
to verify our answer, contribution margin = $105 - $63 = $42 / $105 = 40%
b. How many units must be sold to maintain the current operating income of $350,000 if the sales price remains at $100 and the 15 percent wage increase goes into effect?
if sales price doesn't change, then contribution margin = $37 (not $40)
units sold to keep profit at $350,000 = ($350,000 + $390,000) / $37 = 20,000 units per year
c. Wilson believes that an additional $700,000 of machinery (to be depreciated at 20 percent annually) will increase present capacity (20,000 units) by 25 percent. If all units produced can be sold at the present price of $100 per unit and the wage increase goes into effect, how would the estimated operating income before capacity is increased compare with the estimated operating income after capacity is increased? Prepare schedules of estimated operating income at full capacity before and after the expansion.
working at full capacity, sales price $100 (unchanged) and direct labor costs increasing by 15%
capacity 20,000 capacity 25,000
sales revenue $2,000,000 $2,500,000
direct labor $460,000 $575,000
direct materials $200,000 $250,000
overhead $600,000 $750,000
fixed costs $390,000 $670,000
operating revenue $350,000 $255,000
The expansion will result in lower operating profits ($95,000 less) so it should be discarded.
Models of financial markets that emphasize psychological factors affecting investor behavior are called _______.
Answer:
behavioral finance
Explanation:
Behavioral finance focuses on how psychological factors influence markets, and how important they are. E.g. expectations can sometimes be more important than actual results. Stock prices are not necessarily determined using scientific methods, that is why each analyst has his/her own expected future price. No one can know for sure which price is correct, since each analyst will factor certain variables depending on his/her expectations about the future of the company, the stock market, the country's economy and even the world's economy.
Most people would agree that Warren Buffet is generally right when pricing stocks or adjusting stock prices, but even he is not 100% right all the time. Even personal issues affect how investors value stocks. E.g. if the market has been rising and the economy is strong, most investors will be confident and might decide to take higher risks. On the other hand, if the market is not doing so well, investors might be afraid, and they will seek risk free investments. That is the reason why US securities sometimes yield negative returns. It is simply illogical to invest money knowing that you will lose, just leave the money in the bank. But sometimes desperation leads to mistakes.
If an investment triples in value in seven years, the rate of return on the investment is nearest to:
Answer: 17%
Explanation:

A movie ticket cost $0.5 in 1970. The CPI (1970) and the CPI (2011) was 38.8 and 218.8 respectively. How much money would you have needed in 2011 to buy a movie ticket?
help please
Answer:
$2.82
Explanation:
The CPI is the measure of the average changes in prices of consumer goods and services. The CPI compares current prices and prices at the base year.
CPI is expressed as a percentage. It represents the cost of goods in a given year divided by the cost of goods in the base year multiplied by 100.
In 1970, the movie price was $0.50, and CPI was 38.8%
in 2011, CPI was 218.8%; the movie price will be?
in 1970: $0.50 =38.8%
in 2011: ? = 218.8%
?= 218.8/38.8 x $0.50
?=5.6392 x 0.50
=$2.81896
=$2.82

If there is a technological advance that lowers the cost of producing x-ray machines, then we can say that the
Answer:
C) quantity supplied of those machines will go up.
Explanation:
the options are missing:
A ) quantity demanded for those machines will increase.
B) demand for those machines will shift right.
C) quantity supplied of those machines will go up.
D) quantity supplied of those machines will decrease.
If production costs decrease, the supply curve will shift to the right, increasing the total quantity supplied while decreasing the sales price. Advances in technology increase productivity, which allows companies to supply a higher amount of goods at lower prices, which in turn increases the total quantity demanded for these goods.
This outcome of an expansionary period would be considered negative for those living on a
fixed income
Unemployment
Full Employment
Peak
Inflation
Answer:
fixed income
Explanation:
During the expansion business cycle, economic activities are on the increase. Key economic indicators such as employment, incomes, business earnings, demand, and supply of goods and services show positive and progressive numbers. During expansion, the GDP growth rate is healthy, and the level of investment is high.
The expansion phase brings along inflationary pressure. At the peak or near the end of the expansion cycle, the inflation rate is always above the optimal level and sometimes in double digits. A high rate of inflation weakens the purchases power of the local currency. Employees on a fixed income will be disadvantaged. Their income will afford them fewer goods and services compared to the period before expansion.
Big Wave Marine Products had sales revenue of $850,000 for the year-ended December 31, 2017. The units sold were covered by a two-year warranty and Big Wave began 2017 with a warranty liability balance of $11,600. Big Wave's management team estimated that the units sold in 2017 would result in future warranty claims in the amount of 4% of sales revenue and during 2017. Big Wave spent $34,800 servicing customer warranty claims.
Write down the that Big Wave will record in 2017 for warranty expense.
Answer:
$34,000
Explanation:
the journal entry to record the warranty expense would be:
Dr Warranty expense 34,000
Cr Warranty liability 34,000
The warranty liability account covers products sold during the current and previous year (until the 2 year warranty period is over). It is a permanent liability account that changes over time, while the warranty expense account is a temporary account and is recorded when the goods are sold.
Consider the experiments. Experiment 1: A study is done to determine which of two fuel mixtures allows a rocket to travel farther over a period of time. Rocket A, which requires additional equipment to keep it stable, is used to test one fuel mixture, and rocket B is used to test the other. Both rockets are identical aside from their mass. The results indicate that rocket B traveled farther than rocket A over the same period of time. Experiment 2: A double-blind experiment is performed to test whether a new drug is effective in lowering blood pressure. A random sample of subjects with high blood pressure is assigned to two groups. One group receives the new drug and the other group does not. Neither group is permitted to take any other medications during the experiment or to change their lifestyles in any way. The results of the experiment show that the drug is effective in lowering blood pressure.
Identify the experiment in which confounding occurs and the reason for its occurrence.
a. Neither experiment has a confounding variable.
b. Experiment 1 has a confounding variable related to the fuel mixtures. Varying the fuel mixture could skew the results of the study and should be kept constant.
c. Experiment 2 has a confounding variable related to the type of experiment. A double-blind experiment may increase the risk of the placebo effect and possibly skew the results.
d. Experiment 1 has a confounding variable related to the mass of the rockets. Any variation in mass may cause a discrepancy in the distance traveled.
e. Experiment 2 has a confounding variable related to the subjects used. Choosing a sample of subjects with high blood pressure instead of individuals with different blood pressure levels may confuse the results.
Answer:
d. Experiment 1 has a confounding variable related to the mass of the rockets. Any variation in mass may cause a discrepancy in the distance traveled.
Explanation:
Both experiments have confounding variables. But the reasons given for the occurrence of the confounder in experiment 2 do not justify (c) and (e) as correct answers. By definition, confounders are factors other than the independent variable that cause differences in outcome. For experiment 1, the different masses of the two rockets affect the independent variable (fuel mixture) being studied, and actually cause the discrepancy in the distance traveled as indicated in answer (d). Other examples of confounders are placebo, weather, age, and experimenter bias which a double-blind can eliminate.

On January 1, 20X1, Tucker Company leases equipment from Franz Inc. over three years of the equipment's five-year estimated useful life. Franz acquired the asset for $431,213 and normally utilizes an 8% interest rate for these types of transactions. The present value of the lease payments is $357,710. The annual lease payment is $100,000; the first payment is due on January 1, 20X1. Tucker should recognize the second lease payment by debiting (round to the nearest whole dollar and select all that apply)
Answer:
Lease payable for $79,383
Interest expense for $20,617
Explanation:
Calculation for the amount that Tucker should recognize the second lease payment
Calculation for Lease payable
Lease payable =$100,000-($357,710-$100,000)*8%
Lease payable =$100,000-($257,710*8%)
Lease payable =$100,000-$20,617
Lease payable =$79,383
Calculation for Interest expense
Interest expense =( $357,710-$100,000)*8%
Interest expense =$257,710*8%
Interest expense =$20,617
Therefore Tucker should recognize the second lease payment by debiting:
Lease payable for $79,383
Interest expense for $20,617

Broca Corporation has a current ratio of 2.5. Which of the following transactions will increase Broca's current ratio? Select one: a. the purchase of inventory for cash. b. the collection of an account receivable. c. the payment of an account payable. d. none of the above.
Answer:
b. the collection of an account receivable
Explanation:
The formula to compute the current ratio is shown below:
As we know that
Current ratio = Current assets ÷ Current liabilities
If the current ratio is 2.5 that means the current assets is higher than the current ratio
As per the given options, the option b is correct and hence the same is to be considered
The transaction that will increase Broca's current ratio is d. none of the above.
The current ratio is not increased by the purchase of inventory for cash because this transaction has no effect on the current assets. The collection of an account receivable is not going to increase the current ratio for the same reason above (no effect on the current assets).
The payment of an account payable reduces the current assets and current liabilities by the same amount and will not affect the current ratio.
Thus, the transaction that will increase the current ratio is d.

What are some of the government requirements imposed on a public corporation that are not imposed on a private, closely held corporation? Discuss pros and cons of each
Answer:
The government (the SEC) imposes several regulations on publicly traded corporations and requires mandatory reporting regarding their financial position, compensation to key employees, auditing and accounting procedures, conflicts of interest between upper management and shareholders, operating results, etc.
The pros of that large amount of reports is that it makes management accountable for what happens and it makes their job more transparent.
The downside is that they are expensive and time consuming.
On the other hand, privately held corporations decide what to disclose to the general public or the government. The IRS is something that cannot be avoided, but the SEC and its scrutiny is avoided.
Other advantages of publicly held corporations:
a publicly held corporation should be able to raise larger amounts of capitalsince the number of owners is larger, debt per ownership stake is generally much lowertop management tends to be more independent and suffer less pressures from individual stockholderspublicly trades corporations tend to receive more publicity and are better knownthey also attract more talentOther disadvantages of publicly held corporations:
publicly held corporation have a lot of owners and they all have the right to be informed about what happens within the corporation and vote to elect the board of directorssome decisions require that shareholders vote on them, e.g. mergersstock prices suffer from market riskgoing public is also expensiveA medical supplies salesperson walks into a hospital administrator's office.

The city of Belgrade, Serbia, is contemplating building a second airport to relieve congestion at the main airport and is considering two potential sites, X and Y. Hard Rock Hotels would like to purchase land to build a hotel at the new airport. The value of land has been rising in anticipation and is expected to skyrocket once the city decides between sites X and Y. Consequently, Hard Rock would like to purchase land now. Hard Rock will sell the land if the city chooses not to locate the airport nearby. Hard Rock has four choices: (1) buy land at X, (2) buy land at Y, (3) buy land at both X and Y, or (4) do nothing. Hard Rock has collected the following data (which are in millions of euros):
Site X Site Y
Current purchase price 29 18
Profits if airport & hotel built at this site 35 30
Sale price if airport not built at this site 8 4
Hard Rock determines there is a 55% chance the airport will be built at X (hence, a 45% chance it will be built at Y)
Set up a decision table (in millions of Euros) (enter as a whole number and include minus sign if necessary)

Buy land at Y -21 12
Buy land at X and Y -15 -2
Do nothing 0 0
probability 0.55 0.45
Payoff if you buy land at X = (0.55 x 6) + (0.45 x -) = -3
Payoff if you buy land at Y = (0.55 x -21) + (0.45 x 12) = -6.15
Payoff if you buy land at X and Y = (0.55 x -15) + (0.45 x -2) = -9.15
Payoff for doing nothing = 0
The best option is simply doing nothing. The risks are too high, the potential losses are very large and the benefits are really low.
Svetlana won $1,000,000 in a contest, to be paid in twenty $50,000 payments at yearly intervals, the first payment paid at the time of the contest. (Of course, the present value of her winnings is less than $1,000,000.) Svetlana decided to keep X each year to spend and deposit the remaining $50;000 X into an account earning an annual effective interest rate of 5%. She chose the value X to be as large as possible so that, at the moment of the 20th deposit, the account would have grown to such a size that it would provide Svetlana and her heirs at least X per year in interest forever. Find X.
Answer: 31155.5
Explanation:
The following can be deduced from the question:
Money won = $1,000,000
Installments made yearly = $50,000
Interest rate = 5%
The yearly deposits made by Svetalana will be: = 500000-x
The future Value of the yearly deposits made by Svetalana will be:
= (50000-x) × (1/(1.05) + (1/(1.05)^2 .....(1/(1+0.05)^20))
= (500000-x) × 33.066
We should recall that the interest from the question is equated to x. This will be:
33.066 × (50000-x) × 0.05 =x
1.6533(50000 - x) = x
82665 - 1.6533x = x
2.6533x = 82665
x = 82665/2.6533
x = 31155.5
