Explanation:
First and foremost, the issue price of the bond is the face value minus adjustments for discount and flotation costs
issue price=$1000*(1-5%-5%)
issue price=$900
semiannual coupon=face value*coupon rate/2
semiannual coupon=$1000*10%/2
semiannual coupon=$50
number of semiannual coupons in 30 years=30*2=60
Using a financial calculator, pretax cost of debt is computed thus:
N=60(number of semiannual coupons)
PMT=50(semiannual coupon)
PV=-900(price)
FV=1000(face value)
CPT
I/Y=5.58%(semiannual yield)
annual yield=5.58%*2=11.16%
after-tax cost of debt=annual yield*(1-tax rate)
tax rate=21%
after-tax cost of debt=11.16%*(1-21%)
after-tax cost of debt=8.82%
Alternative approach
Yield to Maturity [YTM] = Coupon Amount + [(Par Value – Bond Price) / Maturity Years] / [(Par Value + Bond Price)/2]
semiannual YTM=50+(1000-900)/30/(1000+900)/2
semiannual YTM=(50+3.33)/950
semiannual YTM=5.61%
annual YTM=5.61%*2=11.22%
after-tax cost of debt=11.22%*(1-21%)
after-tax cost of debt=8.86%

On December 31, 2017, Dow Steel Corporation had 730,000 shares of common stock and 43,000 shares of 9%, noncumulative, nonconvertible preferred stock issued and outstanding. Dow issued a 5% common stock dividend on May 15 and paid cash dividends of $530,000 and $82,000 to common and preferred shareholders, respectively, on December 15, 2018.
On February 28, 2018, Dow sold 60,000 common shares. Also, as a part of a 2017 agreement for the acquisition of Merrill Cable Company, another 24,000 shares (already adjusted for the stock dividend) are to be issued to former Merrill shareholders on December 31, 2019, if Merrill's 2019 net income is at least $630,000. In 2018, Merrill's net income was $760,000.
In keeping with its long-term share repurchase plan, 2,000 shares were retired on July 1. Dow's net income for the year ended December 31, 2018, was $2,750,000. The income tax rate is 40%.
As part of an incentive compensation plan, Dow granted incentive stock options to division managers at December 31 of the current and each of the previous two years. Each option permits its holder to buy one share of common stock at an exercise price equal to market value at the date of grant and can be exercised one year from that date. Information concerning the number of options granted and common share prices follows:
Date Granted Options Granted Share Price
(adjusted for the stock dividend)
December 31, 2016 20,000 $ 32
December 31, 2017 15,000 $ 41
December 31, 2018 18,500 $ 40
The market price of the common stock averaged $40 per share during 2018.
On July 12, 2016, Dow issued $500,000 of convertible 10% bonds at face value. Each $1,000 bond is convertible into 50 common shares (adjusted for the stock dividend).
Required:
Compute Dow's basic and diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2018. (Enter your answers in thousands.)
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
Dow's basic earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2018 will be:
= Net Income - Preference Dividend / Basic Number of Shares
= ($2,750,000 - $82,000) / (730,000 × 1.05) + (60,000 × 10/12 × 1.05) - (2,000 × 6/12)
= $2,668,000 / 818,000
= $3.26
Therefore, Dow's basic earnings per share is $3.26.
Dow's diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2018 will be:
First we calculate the number of shares which will be:
= (20,000 × $32) / $40
= $6,40,000 $40
= 16,000 Shares
Solving further, the diluted earnings per share for the year will be:
= $2698000 / 888000
= $3.04
The diluted earnings per year is $3.04

g If nominal GDP is $4,000 billion and the amount of money demanded for transactions purposes is $800 billion, it can generally be concluded that Multiple Choice the asset demand for money is $3,200 billion. the total demand for money is $4,800 billion. on average, each dollar will be spent five times a year. the supply of money needs to be increased to meet the demand.
Answer:
on average, each dollar will be spent five times a year.
Explanation:
Based on the information given it can generally be concluded that ON AVERAGE, EACH DOLLAR WILL BE SPENT FIVE TIMES A YEAR reason been that nominal GDP of the amount of $4,000 billion Divided by $800 billion which is the amount of money that was demanded for transactions purposes will give us 5 indicating that on average, each dollar will be spent five times a year.
Calculated as:
nominal GDP /Money demanded
=$4,000 billion/$800 billion
=5
Therefore it can generally be concluded that on average, each dollar will be spent five times a year.

$75,000
$200,000
$300,000
$375,000
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
1. Based on the information given in the question, there'll be a retained earning statement of:
= $1090000 × (1 - 30%).
= $1090000 × 70%
= $1090000 × 0.7
= $763000
There'll be a retained earnings statement as of $763,000 addition to the beginning balance.
2. Based on the information given in the question, the net income was overstated by $100,000 since the depreciation expense hasn't been deducted. Therefore, the correct option is A ''Overstated by $100,000".
3. The amount that will be debited to the Construction in Process account, to record the change at the beginning of 2021 will be:
= ($750000 - $450000) + ($375000 - $300000)
= $300000 + $75000
= $375000
Superior Company has provided you with the following information before any year-end adjustments: Net credit sales are $131,750. Historical percentage of credit losses is 3%. Allowance for doubtful accounts has a credit balance of $400. Accounts receivables ending balance is $43,500. What is the estimated bad debt expense using the percentage of credit sales method
Answer:
$3,553
Explanation:
Credit losses = Net credit sales × Historical percentage of credit losses
= $131,750 × 3%
= $3,953
Allowance for doubtful account has a credit balance of $400
The estimated bad debt expense can therefore be calculated as:
Bad debt expense = Credit losses - Allowance for doubtful accounts credit balance
= $3,953 - $400
= $3,553
Hence, the estimated bad debt expense using the percentage of credit sales method is $3,553

Qu. 13-95 (Algo) Two products, QI and VH, emerge from a joint process... Two products, QI and VH, emerge from a joint process. Product QI has been allocated $27,300 of the total joint costs of $48,000. A total of 2,200 units of product QI are produced from the joint process. Product QI can be sold at the split-off point for $11 per unit, or it can be processed further for an additional total cost of $10,200 and then sold for $13 per unit. If product QI is processed further and sold, what would be the financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company compared with sale in its unprocessed form directly after the split-off point
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the financial advantage or disadvantage is as follows:
Particulars Product Q1
Selling price after further processing 13.00
Selling price at split off point 11.00
Incremental revenue per pound or gallon 2.00
Total production 2,200.00
Total Incremental Revenue 4,400.00
Total Incremental Processing costs 10,200.00
Total Incremental profit or loss (5,800.00)
Since there is an incremental loss so the same would be Sold at split off

Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question. See the attached pdf for the full question.
The explanation of the answers is now provided as follows:
1. Earnings per share. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Number of shares outstanding = Common stock / Common stock par value = $140,000 / $10 = 14,000
Earnings per share = Net income / Number of shares outstanding = $183,820 / 14,000 = $13.13 per share
2. Dividend payout ratio. (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places. Round your percentage final answer to nearest whole number (i.e., 0.1234 should be entered as 12).)
Dividend payout ratio = Dividend per share / Earnings per share = $3.35 / $13.13 = 0.2551, or 26%
3. Dividend yield ratio. (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places. Round your percentage final answer to nearest whole number (i.e., 0.1234 should be entered as 12).)
Dividend yield ratio = Dividend per share / Market price per share = $3.35 / $61 = 0.0549, or 5%
4. Price-earnings ratio. (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places. Round your answer to nearest whole number.)
Price-earnings ratio = Market price per share / Earnings per share = $61 / $13.13 = 4.65, or 5
5. Book value per share. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Book value per share = Total stockholders’ equity / Number of shares outstanding = $812,000 / 14,000 = $58.00

how could competition policy undo the wrongs of the past and make south africa a better place
Yolo Company, which has excess capacity (i.e. it doesn't have to give up producing and selling products in the normal market if it accepts a special order), received a special order for 4,500 units at a price of $16 per unit. Currently, production and sales are anticipated to be 11,000 units without considering the special order. Budget information for the current year follows. Sales $ 231,000 Less: Cost of Goods Sold 165,000 Gross Margin $ 66,000 Cost of goods sold includes $44,000 of fixed manufacturing cost. If the special order is accepted, the company's income will:
Answer:
$22,500 increase
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Variable cost per unit is
= ($165,000 - $44,000) ÷ 11,000 units
= $11
And, the Sales price per unit is $16
So, the Profit per unit is
= $16 - $11
= $5 per unit
Now the company income would be
= 4,500 units × $5 per unit
= $22,500 increase
Hence, the company income would be increased by $22,500

b. The cash payback period.
c. The net present value. Use the above table of the present value of an annuity of $1. Round to the nearest dollar.
Present value of annual net cash flows $
Amount to be invested $
Net present value $
Answer:
12.5%
4 years
NPV = $302,387
PV of cash flows = $1,552,387
Amount invested = $1,250,000
Explanation:
Average rate of return = net income / amount invested
Net income = cash flow - depreciation
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
1,250,000 / 8 = 156,250
Net income = $312,500 - 156,250 = $156250
(156250 / $1,250,000) x 100 = 12.50%
Payback calculates the amount of time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from it cumulative cash flows
Payback period = Amount invested / cash flow
$1,250,000 / $312,500 = 4 years
Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator
Cash flow in year 0 = $-1,250,000
Cash flow each year from year 1 to 8 = $312,500
I = 12%
NPV = $302,387
To find the NPV using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
g In the theory of comparative advantage, a good should be produced in that nation where Multiple Choice the production possibilities line lies further to the right than the trading possibilities line. its cost is least in terms of alternative goods that might otherwise be produced. its absolute cost in terms of real resources used is least. its absolute money cost of production is least.
Answer:
its cost is least in terms of alternative goods that might otherwise be produced
Explanation:
Comparative Advantage
This is simply explained as when an individual has an opportunity cost of performing a task is lower than the other individuals opportunity cost that is it is more efficient. It is the usual fundamental basis for international trade. Its principle includes production at a maximum peak to be achieved if each individual focus on the job or activities for which his or her opportunity cost is lowest.
Opportunity Cost
This is simply known as the highest valued of an alternative that must be given up so as to be involved or engage in an activity/job or task. There are several sources of a comparative advantage. They includes;
1. Climate and natural resources
2. Relative abundance of labor and capital
3. Technology
4. External economies etc.
Burns Industries currently manufactures and sells 11,000 power saws per month, although it has the capacity to produce 26,000 units per month. At the 11,000-unit-per-month level of production, the per-unit cost is $46, consisting of $30 in variable costs and $16 in fixed costs. Burns sells its saws to retail stores for $71 each. Allen Distributors has offered to purchase 4,100 saws per month at a reduced price. Burns can manufacture these additional units with no change in its present level of fixed manufacturing costs. Using an incremental analysis approach, Burns should consider accepting this special order only if the price per unit offered by Allen is at least: Multiple Choice $16. $46. $71. $30. qizket
Answer:
Selling price= $30
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Unitary cost:
Variable= $30
Fixed= $16
Number of units= 4,100
Normally, when there is unused capacity and a new customer asks for a reduced price, the fixed cost should not be taken into account when calculating the selling price. The company benefits from increasing its sales, acquiring a new customer, and perhaps getting some discounts from suppliers in the variable components.
The lower price that the company accepts is the one that equals the unitary variable cost. In this case:
Selling price= $30
On February 24, 2020, Allison's building, with an adjusted basis of $2,986,000 (and used in her trade or business), is destroyed by fire. On March 31, 2020, she receives an insurance reimbursement of $3,881,800 for the loss. Allison invests $3,493,620 in a new building and buys stock with the balance of insurance proceeds. Allison is a calendar year taxpayer. a. By what date must Allison make the new investment to qualify for the nonrecognition election
Answer:
As a calendar-year taxpayer, Allison must make the new investment by December 31, 2020 to qualify for the nonrecognition election.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Adjusted basis of building = $2,986,000
Insurance reimbursement = $3,881,800
Gain from loss = $895,800 ($3,881,800 - $2,986,000)
Investment in new building = $3,493,620
Purchase of stock = $388,180 ($3,881,800 - $3,493,620)
b) Allison is expected to make the election for the nonrecognition of the gain from loss in his Federal Tax return in the taxable year in which the gain with respect to the loss of the building is realized. The return must set forth the computation of the gain and other required details.

Vaughn Manufacturing acquires a coal mine at a cost of $1920000. Intangible development costs total $354000. After extraction has occurred, Vaughn must restore the property (estimated fair value of the obligation is $183000), after which it can be sold for $208000. Vaughn estimates that 5000 tons of coal can be extracted. What is the amount of depletion per ton
Answer:
$452
Explanation:
The amount of depletion per ton is computed below.
= (Acquired cost of coal mine + Intangible development costs + Fair value of the obligation - Sale value) ÷ Number of estimated tons of coal extracted
= ($1,920,000 + $353,000 + $193,000 - $208,000) ÷ 5000
= $452
The amount of depletion per ton is therefore $452
