Bruce Church, Inc. is a company engaged in extensive commercial farming in Arizona and California. A provision of the Arizona Fruit and Vegetable Standardization Act requires that all cantaloupes grown in Arizona "be packed in regular compact arrangement in closed standard containers approved by the supervisor." Arizona, through its agent Pike, issued an order prohibiting Bruce Church from transporting uncrated cantaloupes from its range in Parker, Arizona, to nearby Blythe, California, for packing and processing. It would take many months and $200,000 for Bruce Church to construct a processing plan int Parker. Further, Bruce Church had $700,000 worth of cantaloupes ready for transportation. Bruce Church filed suit in federal district court challenging the constitutionality of the Arizona statutory provision on shipping cantaloupes. The court issued an injunction (essentially saying the statute was not constitutional) against the enforcement of the act on the grounds that it was an undue hardship on interstate commerce. Answer the following questions: 1. What is the Commerce Clause? 2. Will the Arizona regulation withstand Commerce Clause scrutiny? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. What is the Commerce Clause?

The Commerce Clause refers to the power held by Congress to regulate interstate commerce. Individual states can regulate commerce that takes place within their territory, but they cannot regulate trade between entities from their state and entities from other states.

2. Will the Arizona regulation withstand Commerce Clause scrutiny? Why or why not?

This is an actual court case and the US Supreme Court ruled against Arizona's regulation because it interferes with interstate commerce. The cantaloupes that Bruce Church produced were supposed to be sold in California, that means that 2 states are involved. The Commerce Clause applies whenever trade between 2 states are involved. An individual state's regulations cannot result in a burden for businesses engaged in interstate commerce.

SUOMI

Answers

Answer:

C. Shareholders may remove the original owners from a corporation

Explanation:

Unfortunately, the founders of a corporation can be removed from the business. The process of removing a  shareholder is hectic but still possible. A shareholder's agreement binds the shareholders of a business or a corporation. The agreement is the equivalent of a contract among the shareholder.

A gross violation of the agreement by a shareholder may lead to their removal. The conditions and processes of removal are normally contained in the shareholder's agreement.

An investment counselor calls with a hot stock tip. He believes that if the economy remains​ strong, the investment will result in a profit of ​$10,000. If the economy grows at a moderate​ pace, the investment will result in a profit of ​$30,000. ​However, if the economy goes into​ recession, the investment will result in a loss of ​$30,000. You contact an economist who believes there is a ​30% probability the economy will remain​ strong, a 60​% probability the economy will grow at a moderate​ pace, and a 10​% probability the economy will slip into recession. What is the expected profit from this​ investment?

Answers

Answer:

6,000

Explanation:

The expected value from this investment can be calculated by possible values for random variables by multiplying them by their probability

DATA

Strong  = 30,000   , probability = 30%

Moderate = 10,000 , probability = 60%

Weak = -30,000 , probability = 10%

Calculation

Expected profit = Values x Probability

Expected profit = (30,000 x 30%) + (10,000 x 60%) + ( 30,000 x 10%)

Expected profit = 6,000 + 6,000 -6,000

Expected profit = 6,000

The Wall Street Journal reports that the rate on 3-year Treasury securities is 7.20 percent, and the 6-year Treasury rate is 7.45 percent. From discussions with your broker, you have determined that expected inflation premium is 2.70 percent next year, 2.95 percent in Year 2, and 3.15 percent in Year 3 and beyond. Further, you expect that real interest rates will be 3.60 percent annually for the foreseeable future. What is the maturity risk premium on the 6-year Treasury security

Answers

Answer:

The maturity risk premium on the six year is 0.45%

Explanation:

For computing the maturity risk premium, we need to use the formula which is shown below:

3-year treasury securities = 3-year inflation period + 3-year real interest rate + maturity risk premium

7.20% = 3.15% + 3.60% + maturity risk premium

7.20% = 6.75% + maturity risk premium

Maturity risk premium  = 7.20% - 6.75%

Maturity risk premium  = 0.45%

Hence, the maturity risk premium on the six year is 0.45%

Time period is important in accounting. Companies need to report revenue and expenses on their income statement based on what they earned and incurred during the accounting period. Assume the company had invested $100,000 in an interest-bearing investment on September 1st of this year. The investment earns 6% interest, but the interest doesn't get paid out until the end of the first six months. What, if any, interest revenue should the company record on their December 31st year ending income statement of this year

Answers

Answer: $2,000

Explanation:

The question alludes to the Accrual principle of Accounting that states that companies need to report revenue and expenses on their income statement based on what they earned and incurred during the accounting period.

The investment is to earn 6% annually which means that every year it is to show returns of;

= 6% * 100,000

= $6,000

On a monthly basis therefore this should be;

= 6,000 / 12

= $500

They invested on September 1st which means that they would have been invested for 4 months by December 31.

The interest for the year is therefore;

= 4 * 500

= $2,000

c. What is the total overhead allocated to product A1 next month?
d. What is the total overhead allocated to product B2 next month?
a. predetermined rate ?? % of direct materials costs
b. predetermined rate ?? % of direct-labor cost
c. Total Overhead (A1) ??
d. Total Overhead (B2) ??

Answers

Answer:

a. 15% of direct material cost

b.  30% of direct labor cost

c. $16,500

d. $37,500

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:-

a. Predetermine overhead rate = Direct-material related ÷ Total of direct labor

= 13,500 ÷ 90,000

= 15% of direct material cost

b. Predetermine overhead rate = Direct-labor related ÷ Total of direct labor

= 40,500 ÷ 135,000

= 30% of direct labor cost

c. Total overhead (A1) = Direct material × Predetermine overhead rate of direct material + Direct labor × Predetermine overhead rate of direct labor

= 30,000 × 15% + 40,000 × 30%

= $16,500

d. Total overhead (B2) = Direct material × Predetermine overhead rate of direct material + Direct labor × Predetermine overhead rate of direct labor

= 60,000 × 15% + 95,000 × 30%

= $37,500

The balance will be financed with short-term financing, which currently costs 5%. Lear’s earnings before interest and taxes are $340,000. Determine Lear’s earnings after taxes under this financing plan. The tax rate is 30%.
B. As an alternative. Lear might wish to finance all fixed assets and permanent current assets plus half of its temporary current assets with long-term financing and the balance with short-term financing. The same interest rates apply as in part a. Earnings before interest and taxes will be $340,000. What will be Lear's earnings after taxes? The tax rate is 30%.

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

A. Current assets = permanent current assets + temporary current assets

Temporary current assets:

= $940,000 - $420,000

= $520,000

Short-term interest expense:

= 5% × [$520,000 + ½ ($420,000)]

= 5% ($520,000 + $210,000)

= 5% × ($730,000)

= 0.05 × $730,000

= $36,500

Long-term interest:

= 9% × [$740,000 + ½ ($420,000)]

= 9% × ($740,000 + $210,000)

= 9% × $950,000

= 0.09 × $950,000

= $85,500

Total interest expense:

= $36,500 + $85,500

= $122,000

Earnings before interest and taxes $340,000

Less: Interest expense = $122,000

Earnings before taxes = $218,000

Less: Taxes (30%) = $65,400

Earnings after taxes = $152,600

B. Short term interest expense:

= $260,000 × 5%

= $260,000 × 0.05

= $13,000

Long term interest expense:

= ($740,000 + $420,000 + $260,000) × 9%

= $1,420,000 × 0.09

= $127,800

Total interest expense:

= $13000 + $127800

= $140,800

Earnings before interest and taxes $340,000

Less: Interest expense = $140,800

Earnings before taxes = $199,200

Less: Taxes (30%) = $59760

Earnings after taxes = $139440

What are the major objectives of macroeconomics? Write a brief definition of each of these objectives. Explain carefully why each objective is important?

Answers

Answer:

Some of the major objectives of macroeconomics are:

Economic growth: more specifically, non-inflationary, sustainable economic growth, in order to raise the living standards of the people by increasing the production of goods and services.Low inflation: inflation is the general rise in the price level of goods and services of a economy within a period of time. High inflation has shown to be damaging to the economy, and this is why one of the most important macroeconomic goals is to keep inflation low.Low unemployment: unemployment is very damaging for both individuals and society. Unemployed people are likely to be unable to live by themselves. Maintaining unemployment low is one of the most important macroeconomic objectives and it often conflicts with the goal of keeping inflation low, at least in the short-term.Balanced Budget: macroeconomists try to advise governments to keep low levels of debt, and to not spend too much more than they earn from tax revenue, public entreprise profits, and other sources of public income.

Answers

Explanation:

we have to get The Amount and nature of recognized gain or loss for each transaction:

a.  The condemnation proceeds = $15,000.  allocable basis of acquired land = $40,000."

loss = $40,000 - $15,000

= $25,000

b. sale of truck = $3,500. the adjusted basis = 0

Gain = $3,500 - 0 = $3,500

c.

As rowing machine was sold for 4900 and is fully depreciated, with an adjusted basis of 0

Gain = $4,900 - 0 = $4,900

d. sale of apartment = 300000

adjusted basis = $124,783

when we subtract we get :

The Overall gain would be = $300,000 - $124,783 = $175,217

Unrecaptured Section gain = $150,000 - $124,783 = $25,217

Regular long-term capital gain = Overall gain - Uncaptured section gain

This is:

= $175,217 - $25,217 = $150,000

e. his yatch was stolen, it had cost $25,000. The fair market value = $19,600. he was insured for 50% of the original cost, of which he got $12,500 on December 1."

Then Tax loss = Fair market value - Amount received from insurance

$19600-$12,500 = $7,100

so we have here a tax loss of $7,100 ( before any AGI limitation),

f. he sold a Buick for $9,600.  It was bought for $20,800."

Loss = $20,800 - $9,600 = $11,200

a non-deductible personal loss.

g. after his trampoline machine was stolen. fair market value was 8000, adjusted basis = 6000

Tax Loss = $6,000

lorenzos Adjusted Gross Income for 2019 = $102,000 + $3,500 + $4,900 + $150,000 - $6,000 = $254,400

Answer:

James did not like the fact that he had no input in his productivity goal. Because of this, his Goal acceptance was low and he did not take it as seriously as if he had set the same goal himself.

Goal acceptance refers to the willingness of an individual to receive or consent internally to a certain goal. It is usually higher when the individual is contributes to the setting of the goal and it is low here as James did not have any input into it.

Carol always tries extremely hard to reach her performance goal. She takes it personally when she falls short, which rarely happens because she is so dedicated to reaching it. Carol's Goal commitment is high.

Goal commitment refers to how much dedication and effort a person puts into meeting an objective. Carol puts a lot of effort into achieving her goals so her Goal commitment is high.

After organizational and subsidiary goals are set, each manager meets with each subordinate to explain the unit goals to the subordinate. Together the two determine how the subordinate can contribute to the unit's goals most effectively. This is called Management by objectives.

Management by Objectives is a type of management that works by making sure that employees understand the goals that management set. It works by management and employees working together to find out how best employees can meet the goals set.

As the bookkeeper of a new start-up company, you are responsible for keeping the chart of accounts up to date. At the end of each year, you analyze the accounts to verify that each account should be active for accumulation of costs, revenues, and expenses. In July, the accounts payable clerk has asked you to open an account named New Expenses. You know that an account name should be specific and well defined. You feel that the A/P clerk might want to charge some expenses to that account that would not be appropriate. Why do you think the A/P clerk needs this New Expenses account

Answers

Answer:

There are a number of reasons, the A/P clerk could want this New Expenses account to be opened with some of them being suspicious and some of them being out of a lack of knowledge.

Assuming it is the latter (no need to be suspicious, yet), the A/P might not know that expenses accounts should be specific and well defined and so just assumed that New Expenses would serve them well.

You should explain to them how the naming of accounts is done and ask them for the Source document so you can see what name to give the new account.

If the A/P is being uncooperative, it is time to be suspicious and to clarify the issue with the superior of the clerk so as to avoid any issues with the company's books.

It's important to explain to the accounts payable clerk that the account title is inappropriate and therefore needs to be specific with the name.

If the accounts payable clerk doesn't understand, he should be told to show the source document for the expenses incurred like a check, invoice, etc so that the proper name of the account can be decided.

There isn't any reason to be suspicious because the clerk doesn't understand much about accounting. In a situation where he still insists on the account name, then the information should be reported to higher authorities.

Answers

Answer:

the formulation of the given linear program is,

Minimize  

z = 400S1 + 600S2 + 150 ( LT1 + LT2 + LC1  + LC2)  

Subject to the constraints  

T1 + C1 ≤ I000

T2 + C2 ≤ 1000

2T1 + C1 = S1

2T2 + C2 = S2

100 + T1 = 400 + LT1

LT1 + LT2 = 300 + LT2

200 + C1 = 800 + LC1

LC1 + C2 = 300 + LC2

 

S1,S2 ≤ 1 500

4C1 - 6T1 ≥ 0

4C2 - 6T2 ≥ 0

All variables  ≥ 0  

Explanation:

Firstly;

Let T1 be number of trucks to be produced in month 1 and T2 be number of trucks to be produced in month 2.  

Let C1 be number of cars to be produced in month 1 and C2 be number of cars to be produced In month 2.  

Let S1 be tons of steel used in month 1 and S2 be tons of steel used in month 2.

Let LT1 be number of trucks in inventory at the end of month 1 and LT2 be number of trucks In inventory at the end of month 2.

Let LC1 be number of cars in inventory at the end of month 1 and LC2 be number of cars in inventory at the end of month 2.  

Now the objective is to minimize the cost, so

z = [(cost of steel during month 1)(tons of steel used in month 1)] + [(cost of steel during month 2)( tons of steel used in month 2)] + [(holding cost at the end of each month )(trucks and cars in inventory at the end of each month)]

= 400S1 + 600S2 + 150 ( LT1 + LT2 + LC1  + LC2)  

Thus, the objective function Is, Minimize  

z = 400S1 + 600S2 + 150 ( LT1 + LT2 + LC1  + LC2)  

Constraint1 Each month, the production capacity of the vehicle is 1000 vehicles.

Number of trucks produced in month 1 + number of cant produced in month 1 ≤ 1000

T1 + C1 ≤ 1000  

Number of trucks produced in month 2 + number of cars produced in month 2 ≤ 1000

T2 + C2 ≤ 1000  

Constraint2 Each month. each truck uses 2 tons of steel and each car uses 1 ton of steel.

[(Tons of steel used to produce truck in month 1) + (tons of steel used to produced cars in month 1)] = S1

2T1 + C1 = S1

[(Tons of steel used to produce truck in month 2) + (tons of steel used to produced cars in month 2)] = S2

2T2 + C2 = S2  

Constraint3 At the beginning of month 1, 100 trucks are in inventory.  

[100 trucks at the beginning are in inventory +  

number of trucks produced in month 1]  = [400 trucks are demanded in month 1 + number of trucks in inventory at the end of the month 1]

100 + T1 = 400 + LT1

[trucks at the beginning of month 2 in inventory + number of trucks produced in month 2 ] =  [300 trucks are demanded in month 2 + number of trucks in inventory at the end of the month 2]

LT1 + T2 = 300 + LT1

Constraint 4 At the beginning of month 1, 200 cars  are in Inventory

[200 cars at the beginning are in inventory + number of cars produced in month 1] =   [800 cars are demanded in month 1 + number of cars in inventory at the end of the month 1]

200 + C1 = 800 + LC1

[cars at the beginning of month 2 in inventory + number of cars produced in month 2 ] =  [300 cars are demanded in month 2 + number of cars in inventory at the end of the month 2]

LC1 + C2 = 300 + LC2

Constraint 5 At most, 1,500 tons of steel can be purchased each month.

S1 ≤ 1,500

S2 ≤ 1,500

Constraint 6 Each month, vehicle produced by company must average at least 16mpg.

[{{(mpg of trucks)(number of trucks produced in month 1)} + {(mpg of cars)(number of cars produced in month 1)}}  /  {(number of trucks produced in month 1 ) + ( number of Cars produced in month 1)}] ≥ 16  

(10T1 + 20C1 /   T1 + C1) ≥ 16

4C1 - 6T1 ≥ 0

[{{(mpg of trucks)(number of trucks produced in month 2)} + {(mpg of cars)(number of cars produced in month 2)}}  /  {(number of trucks produced in month 2 ) + ( number of Cars produced in month 2)}] ≥ 16  

(10T2 + 20C2 /   T2 + C2) ≥ 16

4C2 - 6T2 ≥ 0

Therefore, the formulation of the given linear program is,

Minimize  

z = 400S1 + 600S2 + 150 ( LT1 + LT2 + LC1  + LC2)  

Subject to the constraints  

T1 + C1 ≤ I000

At the beginning of the month, the Painting Department of Skye Manufacturing had 24,000 units in inventory, 80% complete as to materials, and 20% complete as to conversion. The cost of the beginning inventory, $32,650, consisted of $26,400 of material costs and $6,250 of conversion costs. During the month the department started 119,000 units and transferred 126,000 units to the next manufacturing department. Costs added in the current month consisted of $283,440 of materials costs and $562,825 of conversion costs. At the end of the month, the department had 17,000 units in inventory, 30% complete as to materials and 15% complete as to conversion. If Skye Manufacturing uses the weighted average method of process costing, compute the costs per equivalent unit of materials and conversion respectively for the Painting Department.

Answers

Answer:

Materials     $2,36

Conversion $4,43

Explanation:

 Weighted-Average:

completed + ending WIP

(there is not differenciation between completed and started and completed)

Equivalent units Materials: 126,000 + 17,000 x 30% = 131,1 00

Conversion: 126,000 + 17,000 x 15% = 128,55 0

Material Equivalent cost:

283,440 + 26,400 = 309,840

$309,840 / 131,100 = 2,3633867

Conversion Equivalent cost:

562,825 + 6,250 = 569,075

569,075 / 128,550 = 4,4268767

Acceptance. Amy Kemper was seriously injured when her motorcycle was struck by a vehicle driven by Christopher Brown. Kemper’s attorney wrote to Statewide Claims Services, the administrator for Brown’s insurer, asking for "all the insurance money that Mr. Brown had under his insurance policy." In exchange, the letter indicated that Kemper would sign a "limited release" on Brown’s liability, provided that it did not include any language requiring her to reimburse Brown or his insurance company for any of their incurred costs. Statewide then sent a check and release form to Kemper, but the release demanded that Kemper "place money in an escrow account in regards to any and all liens pending." Kemper refused the demand, claiming that Statewide’s response was a counteroffer rather than an unequivocal acceptance of the settlement offer. Did Statewide and Kemper have an enforceable agreement? Discuss.

Answers

Answer:

In the clarification section down, the definition including its concern is mentioned.

Explanation:

In terms of strategy, two important components necessarily entail an "Agreement."

Offer Acceptance

Step 1: Approval + Bid = Agreement

Step 2: Agreement + Enforceability = Contract.

Throughout water to establish a legal Arrangement or Contract, those would be the two underlying equations to be met. Going to come to something like the case's reality, The counsel for Kemper addressed to Statewide Claims Management, Brown's insurance company agent, calling for "all the premium money something which Mr. Brown seems to be under his insurance contract." Statewide decided to send the document and perhaps freedom of the individual to Kemper throughout reaction to the aforementioned request, however, they pointed to Kemper's current requirement that she should put money during an emergency fund concerning anything and everything outstanding liens.Kemper disagreed with all of the above assumptions as well as denied the proposal, arguing that perhaps the response from Nationwide was a counteroffer. If we correctly examine the aforementioned situation, without even any discussion, we will realize that it is indeed a pure "Counter Bid." Why whenever the offender becomes encouraged with just 2 choices, YES/NO, whenever an Offeror makes an object to something like the Offeree. and then when the promise offers a conditional response, it destroys the initial offer so it corresponds to Counter Offer.In quite a similar manner, the Nationwide reaction to Kemper's letter here alone leads to "Counter Bid" and becomes an Absolute acceptance, but not. i.e., there is no approval of an invitation, and no deal remains.

There is, however, no "Acceptance" to either the original Bid, and therefore no binding mediation agreements between Nationwide and Kemper have been established.

Explanation:

The company sold the quantum dot produce will have a huge amount of money in the company, shareholders may have differing opinions to use that money the holds the surplus. As capital becomes kept, this hardly increases the value of a business or takes the investors through their pockets.

Position of the investor on (repurchasing, earnings)

Payout and buyback of shares are considered a factor influencing shareholders' interest and some factors are based on investor interest.

Current income source

Many investors can only be the source of revenue for such investors so that they'd prefer to have a regular dividend. Then the more current revenue you earn its most beneficial is a unique dividend. Share buybacks as an opportunity to share in order to collect large sums of cash.

Productive investments value

Those who become shareholders that must increase the asset's lengthy-term price, — for example stock values by companies investing in positive NPV ventures and in this case increase the interest of existing investors.

Improved future dividend

Just after the purchase of shares in share price issuance, a number of shares will be limited, and effective dividends rise per share. It means that an investor will acquire a further equity interest in the business by buying back preferred stock.

Focused on the hypotheses of dividends, repurchases, or portion share price plus repurchases, there are many mainly three opinions.

Many people would prefer the $0.51 dividend payment as a sum of money that was received in the case of a dividend. And at the same time, there will be an idea that the dividends must be paid regularly as well as the remaining cash must buy safely.
