Answer:
$469.25
Explanation:
total cost = total cost of renting car + cost of gas + miscellaneous items
total cost of renting car = 37.45 x 10 = 374.5
374.5 + 78 + 16.75 = 469.25
A bank has $132,000 in excess reserves and the required reserve ratio is 11 percent. This means the bank could have __________ in checkable deposit liabilities and __________ in (total) reserves. Group of answer choices $5,000,000; $5,869,000 $1,000,000; $110,000 $4,000,000; $590,000 $4,700,000; $869,000
Answer:
$14,520 in check-able deposit liabilities and $117,480 in total reserves.
Explanation:
The bank has $132,000 in excess reserves and excess reserves ratio is 11%. The bank will have total reserves of $132,000 * 89% = $117,480. The total liabilities will be equivalent to the excess reserves which is $14,520 [$132,000 - $117,480].
Eddy Jones Pottery produces serving bowls among other items. If they reengineer their automated equipment, a serving bowl can be formed in just 1.5 min instead of 2.5 min. If Eddy Jones Pottery uses the reengineered equipment, how many more bowls could they produce in one 8-hr shift
Answer and Explanation:
Old equipment=2.5 mins per serving bowl
New equipment=1.5 mins per serving bowl
With old equipment, in one hour Eddy Jones can produce 60/2.5= 24 serving bowls
With new equipment, in one hour Eddy Jones can produce 60/1.5= 40 serving bowls
With old equipment, in 8 hours Eddy Jones can produce 24*8=192 serving bowls
With new equipment, in 8 hours Eddy Jones can produce 40*8=320 serving bowls
Therefore in 8 hours with new equipment Eddy Jones will produce 320-192= 128 more serving bowls than with old equipment.
Current interest rates are 8%. You want to buy a long-term bond with a face value of $1000 that pays a coupon rate of 10%. Which of the following prices is feasible?
a. $888.88
b. $1,000.00
c. $1,111.11
d. Not enough information to answer.
e. None of the above is feasible.
Answer: c. $1,111.11
Explanation:
When a bond's coupon rate is higher than the prevailing interest rate, the bond will be more sought after because it is paying more than the market is paying. As a result, the price of the bond will be higher than its par value to reflect the increased demand for it.
In other words, when a bond coupon rate is higher than the interest rate, the price will be higher than par. This is the case here so the bond will be selling at a higher price than $1,000 and the only option higher than $1,000 is option c at $1,111.11.

A short forward contract that was negotiated some time ago will expire in 4-month and has a delivery price of $42.25. The current forward price for the 4-month forward contract is $42.75. The 4-month risk-free interest rate (with continuous compounding) is 7.90%. What is the value of the short forward contract? Answer with two decimal digits accuracy and the correct sign. Example: -11.92
Answer:
the value of the short forward contract is -0.49
Explanation:
the computation of the value of the short forward contract is shown below:
= (Delivery price - current forward price)× e^(risk free interest rate × no of months ÷ total number of months)
= ($42.25 - $42.75)× e^(-7.90% × 4÷12)
= -0.49
Hence, the value of the short forward contract is -0.49
Therefore the same should be considered

An end of the month (1/31/15) inventory showed that 160 units were on hand." uses FIFO, what is the value of the ending inventory?
Answer:
$868
Explanation:
FIFO means first in, first out. It means that it is the first purchased inventory that is the first to be sold
The ending inventory would consist of the purchases that were made last.
It would include 100 units of the inventory purchased on 1/28/15 and 60 units of the inventory purchased on 1/15/15
Value of ending inventory = (100 x 5.5) + (60 X 5.3)
= 550 + 318

On December 31, 2020, Marin Company borrowed $67,653 from Paris Bank, signing a 5-year, $114,000 zero-interest-bearing note. The note was issued to yield 11% interest. Unfortunately, during 2022, Marin began to experience financial difficulty. As a result, at December 31, 2022, Paris Bank determined that it was probable that it would receive back only $85,500 at maturity. The market rate of interest on loans of this nature is now 12%.
Prepare the entry, if any, to record the impairment of the loan on December 31, 2022, by Paris Bank.

Dr. Note Receivables $114,000
Cr. Discount on bond $46,347
Cr. Cash $67,653
December 31, 2020
Dr. Impairment loss $20,839
Cr. Allowance for Impairment $20,839
Explanation:
Calculate the discount on the bond as follow
Discount on the bond = Face value of Note - Borrowed Amount = $114,000 - $67,653 = $46,347
On December 31, 2020 calculate the present value of face value of note and recoverable value
Present value of Note = Face value x Discount factor at 11% for 3 years = $114,000 x 1/( 1 + 11%)^3 = $83,355.82
Present value of recoverable value of note = Recoverable value of note x Discount factor at 11% for 3 years = $85,500 x 1/( 1 + 11%)^3 = $62,516.86
Now calculate the impairment loss as follow
Impairment loss = Present value of Note - Present value of recoverable value of note = $83,355.82 - $62,516.86 = $20,838.96 = $20,839

Analyze and compare Amazon to Netflix Amazon, Inc. (AMZN) is one of the largest Internet retailers in the world. Netflix, Inc. (NFLX) provides digital streaming and DVD rentals in the United States. Amazon and Netflix compete in streaming and digital services; however, Amazon also sells many other products online. The cash, temporary investments, operating expenses, and depreciation expense from recent financial statements were reported as follows for both companies (in millions):
Amazon Netflix
Balance sheet year:
Cash $19,334 1,468
Short term investment 6647 266
Income Statement:
Operating expense 131,801 8,451
Depreciation expense 8,116 4,925
Required:
a. Determine the days' cash on hand for Amazon and Netflix.
b. Interpret the results
Answer:
a. We have:
Days' cash on hand for Amazon = 77 days
Days' cash on hand for Netflix = 180 days
b. The results show Amazon can keep up with its expenses for 77 days using the current cash reserves if it makes no sales, while Netflix can keep up with its expenses for 180 days using the current cash reserves if it makes no sales.
Explanation:
a. Determine the days' cash on hand for Amazon and Netflix.
Days' cash on hand = (Cash + Short term investment) / ((Operating expense - Depreciation expense) / 365) …………… (1)
Using equation (1), we have:
Days' cash on hand for Amazon = ($19,334 + $6,647) / (($131,801 - $8,116) / 365) = 77 days
Days' cash on hand for Netflix = ($1,468 + $266) / (($8,451 - $4,925) / 365) = 180 days
b. Interpret the results
The results show Amazon can keep up with its expenses for 77 days using the current cash reserves if it makes no sales.
However, the results show that Netflix can keep up with its expenses for 180 days using the current cash reserves if it makes no sales.

The units of Manganese Plus available for sale during the year were as follows:
Mar. 1 Inventory 22 units $29
June 16 Purchase 31units $20
Nov. 28 Purchase 46 units $39
There are 14 units of the product in the physical inventory at November 30. The periodic inventory system is used. Determine the inventory cost in (a) FIFO, (b) LIFO, and (c) average cost methods.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the ending inventory by following methods are
a. Under FiFO
= 14 units at $39
= $546
b. Under LIFO
= 14 units at $29
= $406
c, Under average cost method
But before that the average cost per unit should be determined
= (22 units at $29 + 31 units at $20 + 46 units at $39) ÷ (22 units + 31 units + 46 units)
= ($638 + $620 + $1,794) ÷ (99 units)
= $30.83
Now the ending inventory is
= $30.83 × 14 units
= $431.62
= $432

A truck acquired at a cost of $120,000 has an estimated residual value of $5,300, has an estimated useful life of 37,000 miles, and was driven 3,300 miles during the year. Determine the following. If required, round your answer for the depreciation rate to two decimal places.
a. The depreciable cost $
b. The depreciation rate $ per mile
c. The units-of-activity depreciation for the year $
Answer:
Cost of Truck = $120,000
Residual Value = $5,300
Useful Life = 37,000 miles
a. Depreciable Cost = Cost of Truck - Residual Value
Depreciable Cost = $120,000 - $5,300
Depreciable Cost = $114,700
b. Depreciation Rate = Depreciable Cost / Useful Life
Depreciation Rate = $114,700/37,000 miles
Depreciation Rate = $3.1 per mile
c. Number of miles driven during the year = 3,300
Depreciation for the Year = Depreciation Rate * Number of miles driven during the year
Depreciation for the Year = $3.1 per mile * 3,300
Depreciation for the Year = $10,230

Due to a turnover, a company hires 400 employees each year, on average. Assume that an average stay of an employee in the company is 5 years. On average, how many employees does the company have?
Answer:
On average, the company has 2000 employees.
Explanation:
Since, due to a turnover, a company hires 400 employees each year, on average; assuming that an average stay of an employee in the company is 5 years, to determine, on average, how many employees does the company have, the following calculation must be performed:
Year 0 = 0
Year 1 = 400 (+400)
Year 2 = 800 (+400)
Year 3 = 1200 (+400)
Year 4 = 1600 (+400)
Year 5 = 2000 (+400)
Year 6 = 2000 (+400 -400)
Year 7 = 2000 (+400 - 400)
Therefore, on average, the company has 2000 employees.

If Sweet Catering had recorded transactions using the Accrual method, how much net income (loss) would they have recorded for the month of May?
Answer:
1. Cash Basis $790
Accrual basis $263
2. Cash method $(3,440)
Accrual method $780
Explanation:
1. Calculation to determine how much advertising expense would they have recorded for the two months ending February 28
UNDER THE CASH BASIS, the Law Firm will record $790 of advertising expense for the two months ending February 28.
UNDER THE ACCRUAL BASIS, the Law Firm will record $263 ($790/6*2) of advertising expense for the two months ending February 28.
Therefore the amount of advertising expense l would they have recorded for the two months ending February 28 is:
Cash Basis $790
Accrual basis $263
2a. Calculation to determine how much net income (loss) would they have recorded for the month of May If Sweet Catering had recorded transactions using the Cash method
Using this formula
Net income (loss) using cash method = Meals served to customer – Rent paid – Electricity bill – Cash paid for kitchen equipment
Let plug in the formula
Net income (loss) using cash method= $2,520 -$2,100-$90-$3,770
Net income (loss) using cash method= $(3,440)
Therefore If Sweet Catering had recorded transactions using the Cash method, how much net income (loss) would they have recorded for the month of May is $(3,440)
2b. Calculation to determine how much net income (loss) would they have recorded for the month of May If Sweet Catering had recorded transactions using the Accrual method
Using this formula
Net income (loss) using accrual method = Meals served to customer+ Served a banquet on account – Rent expense – Electricity bill – Salary expense – Depreciation
Let plug in the formula
Net income (loss) using accrual method= $2,520+$1,900-($2,100/3)-$90-$2,290-$560
Net income (loss) using accrual method=$2,520+$1,900-$700-$90-$2,290-$560
Net income (loss) using accrual method=$780
Therefore If Sweet Catering had recorded transactions using the Accrual method, how much net income (loss) would they have recorded for the month of May is $780
