At the beginning of 2020, Pronghorn Company acquired a mine for $1,732,800. Of this amount, $112,000 was ascribed to the land value and the remaining portion to the minerals in the mine. Surveys conducted by geologists have indicated that approximately 11,600,000 units of ore appear to be in the mine. Pronghorn incurred $190,400 of development costs associated with this mine prior to any extraction of minerals. It also determined that the fair value of its obligation to prepare the land for an alternative use when all of the mineral has been removed was $44,800. During 2020, 2,718,000 units of ore were extracted and 2,310,000 of these units were sold.
Required:
a. Compute the total amount of depletion for 2020.
b. Compute the amount that is charged as an expense for 2014 for the cost of the minerals sold during 2020.
Answer: a. $434880
b. $369,600
Explanation:
a. Compute the total amount of depletion for 2020.
Depletion Rate can be calculated as:
= (Mine cost - Value of land + Obligation + Development cost)/Ore extracted
= ($1,732,800 - $112,000 + $44,800 + $190,400)/$11,600,000
= $1856000/$11600000
= 0.16
Total amount of depletion for 2020 will now be calculated as:
= Depletion Rate × Ore extracted
= 0.16 × 2,718,000
= $434880
b. Compute the amount that is charged as an expense for 2014 for the cost of the minerals sold during 2020.
This will be calculated as the totsl depletion for 2014 divided by the value of the amount of ore that was extracted multiplied with amount of unit sold. This will be:
= (434,880/2,718,000) × 2,310,000
= 0.16 × 2,310,000
= $369,600
Emily Lim owns and runs an ice cream parlor in San Diego. Last year, she had sales of $430,000 and an average tax rate of 34%. She spent $43,000 on ingredients, $21,500 on utilities, and $77,400 to rent the premises Emily has a few employees and paid them $86,000 in wages in total. She also paid herself a salary of $64,500 and spent $43,000 to pay for employee benefits A few years ago, Emily borrowed money to buy the ice making equipment. Last year, she paid $21,500 in interest on that loan. Depreciation for the equipment was $12,900 .
1. What was operating income (EBIT) for the year?
2. What was net income for the year?
Answer:
1). Operating Income (EBIT) = Sales - Expenses - Depreciation
Operating Income (EBIT) = $430,000 - ($43,000 - $21,500 - $77,400 - $86,000 - $64,500 - $43,000) - $12,900
Operating Income (EBIT) = $430,000 - $335,400 - $12,900
Operating Income (EBIT) = $81,700
2). Net Income = (EBIT - Interest)*[1 - t]
Net Income = ($81,700-$21,500)*(1-0.34)
Net Income = $60,200*0.66
Net Income = $39,732

The value of a share of common stock depends on the cash flows it is expected to provide, and those flows consist of the dividends the investor receives each year while holding the stock and the price the investor receives when the stock is sold. The final price includes the original price paid plus an expected capital gain. The actions of the marginal investor determine the equilibrium stock price. Market equilibrium occurs when the stock's price is -Select-less thanequal togreater thanCorrect 1 of Item 1 its intrinsic value. If the stock market is reasonably efficient, differences between the stock price and intrinsic value should not be very large and they should not persist for very long. When investing in common stocks, an investor's goal is to purchase stocks that are undervalued (the price is -Select-abovebelowequivalent toCorrect 2 of Item 1 the stock's intrinsic value) and avoid stocks that are overvalued.
The value of a stock today can be calculated as the present value of -Select-a finitean infiniteCorrect 3 of Item 1 stream of dividends:
This is the generalized stock valuation model. We will now look at 3 different situations where we can adapt this generalized model to each of these situations to determine a stock's intrinsic value:
1. Constant Growth Stocks;
2. Zero Growth Stocks;
3. Nonconstant Growth Stocks.
Constant Growth Stocks:
For many companies it is reasonable to predict that dividends will grow at a constant rate, so we can rewrite the generalized model as follows:
This is known as the constant growth model or Gordon model, named after Myron J. Gordon who developed and popularized it. There are several conditions that must exist before this equation can be used. First, the required rate of return, rs, must be greater than the long-run growth rate, g. Second, the constant growth model is not appropriate unless a company's growth rate is expected to remain constant in the future. This condition almost never holds for -Select-maturestart-upCorrect 4 of Item 1 firms, but it does exist for many -Select-maturestart-upCorrect 5 of Item 1 companies.
Which of the following assumptions would cause the constant growth stock valuation model to be invalid?
The growth rate is zero.
The growth rate is negative.
The required rate of return is greater than the growth rate.
The required rate of return is more than 50%.
None of the above assumptions would invalidate the model.

Quantitative Problem 1: Hubbard Industries just paid a common dividend, D0, of $1.60. It expects to grow at a constant rate of 2% per year. If investors require a 10% return on equity, what is the current price of Hubbard's common stock? Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round intermediate calculations.
$ per share
Zero Growth Stocks:
The constant growth model is sufficiently general to handle the case of a zero growth stock, where the dividend is expected to remain constant over time. In this situation, the equation is:
Note that this is the same equation developed in Chapter 5 to value a perpetuity, and it is the same equation used to value a perpetual preferred stock that entitles its owners to regular, fixed dividend payments in perpetuity. The valuation equation is simply the current dividend divided by the required rate of return.
Quantitative Problem 2: Carlysle Corporation has perpetual preferred stock outstanding that pays a constant annual dividend of $2.00 at the end of each year. If investors require an 10% return on the preferred stock, what is the price of the firm's perpetual preferred stock? Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round intermediate calculations.
$ per share
Nonconstant Growth Stocks:
For many companies, it is not appropriate to assume that dividends will grow at a constant rate. Most firms go through life cycles where they experience different growth rates during different parts of the cycle. For valuing these firms, the generalized valuation and the constant growth equations are combined to arrive at the nonconstant growth valuation equation:
Basically, this equation calculates the present value of dividends received during the nonconstant growth period and the present value of the stock's horizon value, which is the value at the horizon date of all dividends expected thereafter.
Quantitative Problem 3: Assume today is December 31, 2013. Imagine Works Inc. just paid a dividend of $1.15 per share at the end of 2013. The dividend is expected to grow at 15% per year for 3 years, after which time it is expected to grow at a constant rate of 6% annually. The company's cost of equity (rs) is 9.5%. Using the dividend growth model (allowing for nonconstant growth), what should be the price of the company's stock today (December 31, 2013)? Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round intermediate calculations.

McNulty, Inc., produces desks and chairs. A new CFO has just been hired and announces a new policy that if a product cannot earn a margin of at least 30 percent, it will be dropped. The margin is computed as product gross profit divided by reported product cost.Manufacturing overhead for year 1 totaled $799,000. Overhead is allocated to products based on direct labor cost. Data for year 1 show the following:

Regardless of your answer in requirement (a), the CFO decides at the beginning of year 2 to drop the chair product. The company cost analyst estimates that overhead without the chair line will be $680,000. The revenue and costs for desks are expected to be the same as last year. What is the estimated margin for desks in year 2? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percentage rounded to 1 decimal place.)Estimated margin for desks- Year 2 ?%
Answer:
McNulty, Inc.
Chairs Desks
1. Margin on cost 25% 35%
2. Chairs should be dropped.
3. Margin for desks in Year 2 = 25%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Expected margin = 30% = Gross profit/Product cost
Manufacturing overhead $799,000
Chairs Desks
Sales revenue $1,240,000 $2,286,900
Direct materials 587,000 830,000
Direct labor 150,000 320,000
Overhead 255,000 544,000
Product costs $992,000 $1,694,000
Gross profit $248,000 $592,900
Margin on cost 25% 35%
Expected margin 30% 30%
Expected Margin for desks in Year 2:
Desks
Sales revenue $2,286,900
Direct materials 830,000
Direct labor 320,000
Overhead 680,000
Product costs $1,830,000
Gross profit $456,900
Margin on cost 25%
Expected margin 30%
McNulty's new CFO has made a bad decision. Should the desks be eliminated also? Decisions involving overhead costs should not be made lightly. Detailed and precise information about the overhead costs should be obtained before a decision is taken on product elimination. This case demonstrates the reason for not taking a hasty decision on an issue like this.

The interest expense should be recorded in accordance with the accrual principle of accounting. The accrual or matching principle states that the expenses and revenues should be matched and should be recorded in the period to which they relate to rather then when the cash is paid or received.
Thus, the interest expense relating to 7 months from June 2021 to December 2021 will be recorded as interest expense and interest payable in2021.
Interest expense for 7 months = 800000 * 0.05 * 7/12 = $23333.33
Which account is an example of a contra-expense account? A. purchases B. purchase returns C. sales D. sales returns
Answer:
b. purchase returns
An account which is an example of a contra-expense account is purchase returns. The correct option is b.
What is the contra-expense account?A contra expense account is a general ledger expense account that will intentionally have a credit balance instead of the debit balance that is typical for an expense account. In other words, this account's credit balance is contrary to or opposite of the usual debit balance for an expense account.
Another description of a contra expense account is an account that reduces or offsets the amounts reported in another general ledger expense account. Contra accounts are presented on the same financial statement as the associated account, typically appearing directly below it with a third line for the net amount. Accountants use contra accounts rather than reduce the value of the original account directly to keep financial accounting records clean.
Key examples of contra accounts include accumulated depreciation and allowance for doubtful accounts.

A project manager is faced with the following activities and times associated with a building construction for a cancer research facility. Each activity can be crashed at most by 2 weeks. The cost associated with each week time reduction is given below. (note: The 1st crash and 2nd crash costs are associated with the first and second time that a specific activity is crashed. So, if you crash Activity A once, the cost is $9,000, if you have to crash Activity A a second time, the cost is $9,500)
Crash Costs
Activity Immediate Predecessor Normal Time (weeks) 1st crash 2nd crash

G F 2 $14,000 $16,000
What is the minimum cost to crash this project by 2 weeks?
a. $12,000
b. $9,000
c. $16,000
d. $3,500
Answer:
$12000 ( A )
Explanation:
Calculate The minimum cost to crash this project by 2 weeks
To get the minimum cost to crash this project in 2 weeks we have to first look to crash the activity on the critical path that has the lowest cost of crashing from the first week
critical path: A-B-D-F-G = 25 weeks
After crashing Activity B by 1 week both paths become critical paths hence we need to crash activity C and D by 1 week each so that the paths can crash simultaneously within 2 weeks
therefore the overall crash cost for 2 weeks will be
crash costs of Activities : B + C + D ( 1st crashes)
= 3500 + 4000 + 4500
= $12000

Brews 4 U is a local chain of coffee shops. Managers are interested in the costs of the stores and believe that the costs can be explained in large part by the number of customers patronizing the stores. Monthly data regarding customer visits and costs for the preceding year for one of the stores have been entered into the regression analysis.
Average monthly customer-visits 1,462
Average monthly total costs $4,629
Regression results: Intercept $1,496
b coefficient $2.08
R2 0.86814
Required:
a. In a regression equation expressed as y= a + bx, how is the letter b best described?
b. How is the letter y in the regression equation best described?
c. How is the letter x in the regression equation best described?
d. Based on the data derived from the regression analysis, what are the estimated costs for 370 customer-visits in a month?
e. What is the percent of the total variance that can be explained by the regression equation?
Answer:
Explanation:
a. In a regression equation expressed as y= a + bx, how is the letter b best described?
Here, b is the slope and best described as the estimate of the cost when there's a visit of an additional customer.
b. How is the letter y in the regression equation best described?
The letter y is the observed store cost for that particular month.
c. How is the letter x in the regression equation best described?
The letter x is the observed customer visit for that particular month.
d. Based on the data derived from the regression analysis, what are the estimated costs for 370 customer-visits in a month?
The estimated cost for 370 customer visit will be:
Y = a + bx
where,
a =$1496
b = $2.08
x = 370 customer visit
Y = $1496 + ($2.08 × 370 customer visit)
= $1496 + $769.6
= $2265.6
e. What is the percent of the total variance that can be explained by the regression equation?
The percent of total variance which the regression equation explain will be:
R2 = 0.86814 or 86.814%
We would like to invest $10,000 into shares of companies XX and YY.
Shares of XX cost $20 per share. The market analysis shows that their expected return is $1 per share with a standard deviation of $0.5.
Shares of YY cost $50 per share, with an expected return of $2.50 and a standard deviation of $1 per share.
Returns from the two companies are independent. In order to maximize the expected return and minimize the risk (standard deviation or variance), is it better to invest
a. All $10,000 into XX
b. All $10,000 into YY
c. $5,000 into each company
Answer:
c. $5,000 into each company
Explanation:
Let X be the actual (random) return from each share of XX, and Y be the actual return from each share of YY. Computing the returns from each option:
A) Investing $10,000 into XX
Given that variance = (standard deviation)²
Since XX cost $20 per share, only 500 shares can be bought.
Expected value = 500 * E(x) = 500 * 1 = 500
Variance = 500² * Var(x) = 500² * 0.5² = 62500
B) Investing $10,000 into YY
Since YY cost $50 per share, only 200 shares can be bought.
Expected value = 200 * E(y) = 200 * 2.5 = 500
Variance = 200² * Var(y) = 200² * 1² = 40000
C) Investing $5,000 into each company
Since XX cost $20 per share and YY cost $50 per share, only 250 shares of XX and 100 shares of YY can be bought.
Expected value = 250 * E(x) + 100 * E(y) = 250 * 1 + 100 * 2.5 = 500
Variance = 250² * Var(x) + 100² * Var(y) = 250² * 0.5² + 100² * 1 = 25625
Since all options have the same expected return, but option C has the lowest variance hence it is the least riskiest. So the best option is C

When your roommate does not consider your external costs in the absence of external costs from playing music, the number of hours played is
Answer:
the number of hours music played is too high
Explanation:
When the roommate does not consider the external cost in absence of external benefit then the hours of music played is too high. The roommate has bought the expensive stereo system so his marginal benefit is lower than the marginal costs. The marginal benefit will equal to the marginal cost when the stereo system is played for many hours.
The Excellent Agency specializes in developing advertising campaigns for smaller retail clients. Excellent is hired by Shadowleaf Shoes, a small regional chain of six shoe stores, to develop a slogan and specific ads to be used in a three-month newspaper campaign. Shadowleaf’s marketing director, Manuel Margolis, is adamant while meeting with Excellent's account executive, Kia Chin, that the campaign must be catchy and modern to appeal to a target audience that has an active lifestyle and is between the ages of 18 and 35. More importantly, Margolis wants the slogan to be memorable and unique. Kia Chin, representing Excellent, develops a campaign and presents it to Margolis. The campaign is based on the slogan "Do What You Do in a Shadowleaf Shoe." Visuals depict men’s legs—different sizes, skin colors, etc.—walking, jogging, dancing, and otherwise moving in every type of Shadowleaf’s shoes. Margolis feels that this campaign will target young male consumers, but will also get the attention of others regarding the comfort of the shoes, raising awareness of the Shadowleaf brand. After running the ads, the Excellent Agency wins an advertising effectiveness award. It seems that the surprising and appealing visuals gave the slogan unexpectedly positive social meaning for people of all ages, not just men aged 18 to 35. When Manuel Margolis insists on a measuring stick for the creativity of the campaign, what will the Xcellent Agency tell him, if Kia Chin is smart?
A. "The award alone proves that this ad is loaded with creativity."
B. "If people like the ad, they’ll buy the product."
C. "We met the technical standards for this advertising effort."
D. "Great brands do more than just get attention, they make emotional connections."
Answer:
D. "Great brands do more than just get attention, they make emotional connections."
Explanation:
In the given scenario the aim of Manuel Margolis was to catch attention of clients aged 18 - 35 years. However Kia Chin developed campaign is based on the slogan "Do What You Do in a Shadowleaf Shoe." Visuals depict men’s legs—different sizes, skin colors, etc.—walking, jogging, dancing, and otherwise moving in every type of Shadowleaf’s shoes. After running the ads, the Excellent Agency wins an advertising effectiveness award.
This initiative created an emotional connection with the customer where the visuals attracted them and the comfort of Shadowleaf shoes made them loyal customers.
So the best statement Kia Chin can tell Manuel is "Great brands do more than just get attention, they make emotional connections."
