Answer: The management must ensure that the personnel manager must be up and doing in the performance of their job in order to ensure that accident in the workplace is reduced to the nearest minimum. (b) The increasing safety measures will not affect sales but increase sales because consumers will see the organization as the one who makes the safety of their workers top on their priority.
Explanation:
Safety measures in the workplace are the steps taken by the management in an organization in order to ensure that workers work in an environment that will not endanger their lives while performing their official duties at their workplace. The responsibility for the health and safety as well as the welfare of all workers falls under the functions of the personnel department headed by the personnel manager. The accident in the workplace account for a considerable loss of Labour hours in addition to personal suffering and it is necessary and economically sensible and humane to ensure that working conditions are as safe and as healthy as possible. The management in some cases also appoint an officer specifically to look after health and safety known as department safety officer whose job will be to advice and help as required and also complement the effort of the personnel manager aimed at ensuring the safety of the employees in the workplace

Jamie is saving for a trip to Europe. She has an existing savings account that earns 2 percent annual interest and has a current balance of $4,500. Jamie doesn’t want to use her current savings for vacation, so she decides to borrow the $1,500 she needs for travel expenses. She will repay the loan in exactly one year. The annual interest rate is 5 percent.
a. If Jamie were to withdraw the $1,500 from her savings account to finance the trip, how much interest would she forgo? $_________b. If Jamie borrows the $1,500 how much will she pay in interest? $__________
Answer:
forgo interest = $30
interest = $75
Explanation:
given data
annual interest = 2%
current balance = $4,500
borrow = $1,500
annual interest rate = 5 percent
to find out
how much interest would she forgo and how much will she pay in interest
solution
first we get here Forgo interest that is here
forgo interest = withdrawal amount × interest rate ..........................1
put here value we get
forgo interest = $1500 × 2%
forgo interest = $30
and
now w get here pay in interest that is
interest = amount borrow × interest rate ..........................2
put here value we get
interest = $1500 × 5%
interest = $75
Jamie would forgo $30 in interest earnings if she were to use her savings for her trip. Instead, if she borrows $1,500 at a 5% interest rate, she would end up paying $75 in interest on the loan.
Explanation:a. If Jamie were to withdraw the $1,500 from her savings account to finance the trip, her savings account balance would decrease by that amount and the interest earned would also decrease. To calculate how much interest she would forgo, you use the formula of the principal amount times the interest rate. So, $1,500 * 0.02 (2% as a decimal) = $30. Therefore, Jamie would forgo $30 in interest earnings.
b. If Jamie borrows the $1,500, she will have to pay interest on this amount. The annual interest rate on the loan is 5%. So, $1,500 * 0.05 (5% as a decimal) = $75. Thus, Jamie will pay $75 in interest on the loan.

To prepare a bank reconciliation for the Carla Vista Boat Company at November 30, start with the balance per bank, consider items not yet recorded in the bank statement and items recorded on the company's books but not yet cleared the bank. Adjust the balance per bank based on these items and compare it to the Cash account balance in the general ledger. Make adjusting entries to reflect the correct balances.
Explanation:To prepare a bank reconciliation for the Carla Vista Boat Company at November 30, we need to compare the company's Cash account balance in the general ledger with the balance per the bank statement.
Starting with the balance per bank, which is $8,500, we need to take into consideration the items that are not yet recorded in the bank statement. These items include the cash receipts for November 30 ($6,480) that were not yet recorded. So, we add $6,480 to the balance per bank, giving us a corrected balance of $14,980.
We also need to consider the items that have been recorded on the company's books but have not yet cleared the bank. This includes the total amount of checks still outstanding ($6,260). So, we subtract $6,260 from the corrected balance, resulting in a adjusted balance per bank of $8,720.
Now, let's compare this adjusted balance per bank with the balance in the company's Cash account in the general ledger. The Cash account balance is $5,536.
To reconcile the difference, we need to consider the items that have been recorded on the company's books but have not yet cleared the bank. One of these items is Check No. 138, which was recorded as $560 in the company's Cash account but cleared the bank for $506. So, we subtract the difference of $54 from the Cash account balance, giving us a reconciled balance of $5,482.
We also need to consider the payment to Sunland Company, which was recorded for $368 but should have been $386 according to the accounts payable subsidiary ledger. So, we subtract the difference of $18 from the Cash account balance, resulting in a reconciled balance of $5,464.
Finally, we need to consider the debit memorandum for $50 for check printing charges. This charge is not yet recorded in the company's Cash account, so we subtract $50 from the reconciled balance, giving us a final adjusted balance of $5,414.
In summary, the bank reconciliation for the Carla Vista Boat Company at November 30 shows an adjusted balance per bank of $5,414, which is the reconciled balance between the balance per bank and the Cash account balance in the general ledger.
As for the adjusting entries necessary as a result of the bank reconciliation, we need to record the cash receipts for November 30 ($6,480) and the check printing charges ($50) in the Cash account. These will increase the Cash account balance by $6,530. We also need to adjust the payment to Sunland Company to the correct amount of $386, increasing the Cash account balance by $18. Therefore, the total adjustment to the Cash account is $6,548.
You have a bond that entitles you to a one-time payment of $10,000 one year from now. The interest rate is 10 percent per year. How much is the bond worth today?
Answer:
$9,090.91
Explanation:
The computation of today price is shown below:
Present value = One time payment × (1 + interest rate)^ number of years
= $10,000 × (1 + 0.10)^1
= $10,000 × 0.909090
= $9,090.91
Simply we determine the discount factor and then multiplied it with the one time payment so that estimated value can come
Durable goods such as _____________, furniture, and appliances will fluctuate more widely in sales over a business cycle than nondurables such as food and medicine which are necessities.A drinking waterB tooth pasteC gasolineD automobiles
Answer:
D automobiles
Explanation:
In economic theory, a durable good is defined as that product (or service) that once acquired can be used a large number of times over time. Durable goods are those reusable goods and, although they may end up being spent, they are not consumed quickly as non-durable goods. It is argued that durable goods are those that provide the consumer with a flow of service for a relatively long time, such as automobiles, furniture, homes, etc. It is not necessary that a durable good be luxurious, for example an armchair is a durable good. On the other hand, non-durable goods are depleted or consumed completely in the act of satisfying a need, such as food, water or electricity. It should be noted that one of the fundamental characteristics of durable goods is that they are bought today, while the flow of their services extends over time and that the benefits they yield in a period are proportional to the number of units that are removed from the stock, characteristics that resemble it with the investment in productive capital and is defined as a good that is consumed immediately, with a use or a life time of less than 3 years.
Final answer:
The correct answer is D. automobiles. Durable goods such as automobiles fluctuate more in sales compared to nondurables due to changes in economic conditions, while nondurable goods like food and medicine are necessities with more stable sales patterns.
Explanation:
Durable goods such as automobiles, furniture, and appliances will fluctuate more widely in sales over a business cycle than nondurables such as food and medicine which are necessities. In this context, the correct answer is D. automobiles.
When discussing consumers, goods & services, we refer to economic products that are transferable and useful to individuals or entities. As consumers, we purchase these products to fulfill our needs. Consumer goods are intended for individual use and are classified into durable goods, like automobiles, and nondurable goods, such as food products and gasoline. Durable goods tend to experience larger fluctuations in sales during the business cycle, affected significantly by changes in economic conditions like disposable income and consumer confidence.

Julie has just retired. Her company’s retirement program has two options as to how retirement benefits can be received. Under the first option, Julie would receive a lump sum of $150,000 immediately as her full retirement benefit. Under the second option, she would receive $14,000 each year for 20 years plus a lump-sum payment of $60,000 at the end of the 20-year period.Required:1. Calculate the present value for the following assuming that the money can be invested at 11%.2. If she can invest money at 11%, which option would you recommend that she accept?
Final answer:
To advise Julie on the best retirement benefit option, we calculate the present value of both options assuming an 11% return. The first option's present value is simply the lump sum of $150,000. For the second option, we calculate the present value of the annuity using the annuity formula and add it to the discounted present value of the future lump sum.
Explanation:
To determine which retirement benefit option is more favorable for Julie, we need to calculate the present value of both options, assuming an investment return of 11%. The present value of an annuity formula is used to calculate the value of a series of future payments in today's dollars, which is given by the formula: PV = P * [1 - (1 + r)^{-n}] / r, where PV is the present value, P is the payment per period, r is the interest rate per period, and n is the number of periods.
Option 1: Lump Sum Payment
The first option offers a lump sum of $150,000 immediately, so the present value of this option is simply $150,000, as no calculations are necessary for a single lump sum already in today's dollars.
Option 2: Annuity Plus Lump Sum
The second option is an annuity of $14,000 per year for 20 years and a separate lump sum of $60,000 at the end of 20 years. To find the present value of the annual payments, we use the present value of annuity formula:
Present Value of Annuity = $14,000 * [1 - (1 + 0.11)^{-20}] / 0.11
We also calculate the present value of the $60,000 lump sum to be received at the end of 20 years by discounting it back to its present value using the formula:
Present Value of Lump Sum = $60,000 / (1 + 0.11)^{20}
By adding these two present values together, we obtain the total present value for the second option.
Once the present values of both options are calculated, Julie can compare the two and choose the option with the higher present value, meaning the most beneficial option when taking into account the time value of money.
If Julie can invest money at 11%, she should choose the option that offers her the highest present value as that would represent the greater amount of money in today's dollars.
On a reset date, floating-rate notes:
Multiple Choice:
O experience very volatile price changes.
O market price will usually gravitate toward par.
O market price will usually gravitate toward par, unless the borrowers’ credit rating has declined.
O none of the options
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "B" and "C": market price will usually gravitate toward par; market price will usually gravitate toward par, unless the borrowers’ credit rating has declined.
Explanation:
A floating-rate note is a debt instrument with an interest rate that floats or varies. They are also called floaters. Financial institutions and governments typically issue floaters. Floaters can protect investors because they gain more when interest rates rise, unlike fixed-rate bonds which lose value when rates rise. Then, it is said that the market price will gravitate towards par unless the borrower's credit rating declines.
Use the following information to determine the ending cash balance to be reported on the month ended June 30 cash budget. a. Beginning cash balance on June 1, $94,000. b. Cash receipts from sales, $413,000. c. Budgeted cash disbursements for purchases, $268,000. d. Budgeted cash disbursements for salaries, $95,000. e. Other budgeted cash expenses, $57,000. f. Cash repayment of bank loan, $32,000. g. Budgeted depreciation expense, $34,000.
To calculate the ending cash balance, subtract the total cash disbursements from the sum of the beginning balance and cash receipts. Depreciation expense is ignored as it is not a cash item. The ending cash balance for June 30 is $55,000.
To determine the ending cash balance to be reported on the month-ended June 30 cash budget, we start with the beginning cash balance and adjust for cash inflows and outflows throughout the month. Here's a step-by-step calculation:
Beginning cash balance: $94,000Plus cash receipts from sales: +$413,000Less budgeted cash disbursements for purchases: -$268,000Less budgeted cash disbursements for salaries: -$95,000Less other budgeted cash expenses: -$57,000Less cash repayment of bank loan: -$32,000Ignore budgeted depreciation expense since it is a non-cash item.Now, we calculate the ending balance:
End Balance = Begin Balance + Cash Inflows - Cash Outflows
End Balance = $94,000 + $413,000 - ($268,000 + $95,000 + $57,000 + $32,000)
End Balance = $94,000 + $413,000 - $452,000
End Balance = $507,000 - $452,000
End Balance = $55,000
The ending cash balance to be reported on the June 30 cash budget is $55,000.

a. 21%.
b. 19.87%.
c. 18.74%.
d. 1761%.
Answer:
Effective accounting tax rate = 17.61%
Explanation:
given data
Pre Tax book income = $1,026,000
Reserve for warranties = $101,300
Tax depreciation = $206,500
Deduction inform of dividends received = $55,200
to find out
accounting effective tax rate
solution
we assume here tax rate is 21 %
So Taxable income will be here as
Taxable income = [ $1,026,000 + $101,300 ] - [ $206,500 + $55,200 ]
Taxable income = $1,127,300 - $261,700
Taxable income = $865,600
Tax @21% = $865,600 × 21%
Tax = $181,776
Effective accounting tax rate will be
Effective accounting tax rate = [tex]\frac{181776}{1026000}[/tex]
Effective accounting tax rate = 17.61%
A building acquired at the beginning of the year at a cost of $1,375,000 has an estimated residual value of $250,000 and an estimated useful life of 40 years. Determine (A) the double-declining-balance rate and (B) the double-declining-balance depreciation for the first year.
Answer:
a. 5%
b. $68,750
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. The double-declining balance rate would be
= One ÷ estimated useful life
= 1 ÷ 40 years
= 0.025 or 2.5%
Now the rate is double So, 5%
b. In year 1, the original cost is $1,375,000, so the depreciation is $after applying the 5% depreciation rate is $68,750
In mathematically, it would be
= $1,375,000 × 5%
= $68,750
The double-declining-balance rate for a building with an estimated useful life of 40 years is 5%. The double-declining-balance depreciation for the first year for a building acquired for $1,375,000 would be $68,750.
Explanation:To answer your question, we need to firstly calculate the double-declining-balance rate. This is determined by dividing 1 by the estimated useful life of the asset and then doubling the result. So, for a 40-year life, the rate would be (1/40) * 2 = 0.05 or 5%.
For the double-declining-balance depreciation in the first year, you would multiply the initial cost of the asset by the double-declining-balance rate. In this case, $1,375,000 * 0.05 = $68,750 is the depreciation for the first year.

Final answer:
The delivered cost of the purchases made by Beverly Hills Clothiers during June is $62,590, calculated by adding purchases of $63,895 to freight costs of $2,975 and subtracting returns and allowances of $4,280.
Explanation:
The student asked about calculating the delivered cost of purchases made during June by Beverly Hills Clothiers. To find this value, we utilize the information provided from the general ledger: the balance in the Purchases account, the Freight In account, and the Purchases Returns and Allowances account.
To calculate the delivered cost of the purchases, we must add the cost of purchases to the cost of freight and subtract any returns and allowances. The formula for this calculation is as follows:
Delivered Cost of Purchases = Purchases + Freight In - Purchases Returns and Allowances
Using the given balances:
Purchases: $63,895
Freight In: $2,975
Purchases Returns and Allowances: $4,280
Delivered Cost = $63,895 + $2,975 - $4,280 = $62,590
Therefore, the delivered cost of the purchases made by Beverly Hills Clothiers for June is $62,590.

The free cash flow to the firm is reported as $205 million. The interest expense to the firm is $22 million. If the tax rate is 35% and the net debt of the firm increased by $25, what is the market value of the firm if the FCFE grows at 2% and the cost of equity is 11%?a. $2,168 billionb. $2,397 billionc. $2,565 billiond. $2,998 billion
Answer:
The correct answer is $2,444.6 billion
Explanation:
FCFE= FCF+ Increase in debt- Interest (1-t)
= $205+$25-$22( 1-0.35)
=$215.7
Market Value = [(215.7)1.02)]/ [11%-2%]
=$2,444.6
Assuming a single period growth rate of 2%,
the forecasted FCFE =$215.7(1+0.02)
=$220.01 billion
Although this is not available in the options provided ,$220.01 billion is the correct answer.
Final answer:
The market value of the firm is calculated using the FCFE model, considering the given FCFF, net debt issued, interest expenses after taxes, cost of equity, and growth rate. The resulting market value of the firm is $2,397 million.
Explanation:
To calculate the market value of the firm using the Free Cash Flow to Equity (FCFE) model, we first need to find the FCFE. The FCFE can be calculated by taking the Free Cash Flow to the Firm (FCFF), adding any net debt issued, and then subtracting interest expenses after taxes. We are given that the FCFF is $205 million, net debt issued is $25 million, and the interest expense is $22 million. Taking the tax rate of 35% into account, the after-tax interest expense is $22 million ( 1 - 0.35) = $14.3 million.
The FCFE is therefore $205 million + $25 million - $14.3 million = $215.7 million. Now, to find the market value of equity, we would use the Gordon Growth Model, also known as the perpetuity formula: Market Value of Equity = FCFE ( Cost of Equity - Growth Rate). Plugging in our numbers: Market Value of Equity = $215.7 million ( 0.11 - 0.02) = $2,397 million.
Therefore, the market value of the firm is $2,397 million, which corresponds to option b.
Blair Madison Co. issues $1.9 million of new stock and pays $281,000 in cash dividends during the year. In addition, the company took advantage of falling interest rates to borrow $1.59 million in a new bond issue and paid off existing bonds with a face value of $2.45 million. The company bought 509 of another company's $1,090 bonds at a $109,000 premium. The net cash flow provided by financing activities is:
Answer:
$759,000
Explanation:
Given that,
New stock issues = $1.9 million
Dividend paid in cash during the year = $281,000
The net cash flow provided by financing activities is:
= Million new stock issue increase in cash - Cash dividend decrease in cash + Increase in cash - Decrease in cash
= $1,900,000 - $281,000 + $1,590,000 - $2,450,000

Stewart Parnell, the former CEO of the now-bankrupt Peanut Corporation of America, was charged with falsifying food safety reports required by the FDA. The reports certified that his peanut base product was salmonella free. In some cases, the tests were not yet complete when the certification was done and in other cases the tests indicated the presence of salmonella. Part of the case came from federal agents’ examination of e-mails Mr. Parnell sent to his managers and employees. Which of the following is correct about the agents’ access to those e-mails?
a. Because employees e-mails are not private, the agents did not need a warrant.
b. both b and c
c. The agents would have been required to obtain a warrant.
d. Mr. Parnell could successfully object to the use of the e-mails because of his Fifth Amendment rights.
Answer: c. The agents would have been required to obtain a warrant
Explanation: The decision determined that a person’s cell phone contains more information than a person’s house does. A person therefore has a "reasonable expectation of privacy" for the contents in their phone and police should not be able to search an arrestees cell phone without voluntary consent or a valid search warrant. Police are required to have a warrant to search a person’s cell phone even after a valid arrest... So it is very feasible that the agents to search the employees phone would have been asked to get a warranty which they possibly did to have been able to assess such information.
Federal agents would have needed a warrant to access Stewart Parnell's e-mails (option c), because the Fourth Amendment protects individuals' privacy and typically requires a warrant based on probable cause.
The correct answer to the question about Stewart Parnell, the former CEO of the Peanut Corporation of America, and federal agents' access to his e-mails is option c. The agents would have been required to obtain a warrant before accessing the e-mails.
This is because, under the Fourth Amendment, individuals have a right to privacy, and accessing private communications typically requires law enforcement to obtain a warrant based on probable cause.
Option a is incorrect because, although there may be circumstances where employee e-mails are not considered private, generally, a warrant is still needed to access electronic communications. Option d is also incorrect because Mr. Parnell's Fifth Amendment rights, which protect against self-incrimination, do not directly protect the content of his e-mails from being used as evidence, especially if there was a warrant to collect them.

The Product Owner of a team was asked for a forecast for the completion of a product release. There were 140 story points worth of work remaining in the project. The team's average velocity in the past 3 Sprints has been 65, though the best Sprint among the last three had a velocity of 85 story points. What should the Product Owner say?
Answer:
The product owner should say:
The team will need about 3 Sprints more to complete the product release.
Explanation:
As given the team's average velocity in the past 3 Sprints has been 65 points and best sprint among three was 85 points. There were 140 story points worth of work in the project.
So, if the team keep such a performance then,
three sprints can get = 3 x 65 points
Three sprints can get = 195 points
So, the team will need about 3 sprints more to complete the product release.
