Item7 1.25 points Return to questionItem 7Item 7 1.25 points In 1898, the first Green Jacket Golf Championship was held. The winner’s prize money was $230. In 2018, the winner’s check was $2,640,000. a. What was the annual percentage increase in the winner’s check over this period? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) b. If the winner’s prize increases at the same rate, what will it be in 2056? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 1,234,567.89.)
Answer:
a. 8.10%
b. $50,930,776.45
Explanation:
a. The 2018 prize money can be expressed as a compounded amount of the 1898 amount in the manner;
2,640,000 = 230 * ( 1 + rate) ^ 120 years
Year 2018 - 1898 = 120 years
Solving for rate;
2,640,000/230 = ( 1 + rate) ^ 120 years
( 1 + rate) = (2,640,000/230) ^ 1/120
1 + rate = 1.081016
rate = 0.0810
= 8.10%
b. Number of periods = 2056 - 2018
= 38 years
= 2,640,000 * ( 1 + 8.10%) ^ 38
= $50,930,776.45

The FOMC has instructed the FRBNY Trading Desk to purchase $820 million in U.S. Treasury securities. The Federal Reserve has currently set the reserve requirement at 5 percent of transaction deposits. Assume U.S. banks withdraw all excess reserves and give out loans. a. Assume also that borrowers eventually return all of these funds to their banks in the form of transaction deposits. What is the full effect of this purchase on bank deposits and the money supply? b. What is the full effect of this purchase on bank deposits and the money supply if borrowers return only 95 percent of these funds to their banks in the form of transaction deposits? (For all requirements, enter your answers in billions. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places. (i.e., 5,500,000,000 should be entered as 5.50).)
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. . Assume also that borrowers eventually return all of these funds to their banks in the form of transaction deposits. What is the full effect of this purchase on bank deposits and the money supply?
Based on the above scenario, there'll be an increase in bank deposits and money supply by $16.4 billion.
= (1/5%) × $820 million
= (1/0.05) × $820 million
= 20 × $820 million
= 16,400,000,000
= 16.4 billion
b.What is the full effect of this purchase on bank deposits and the money supply if borrowersreturn only 95 percent of these funds to their banks in the form of transaction deposits?
This will lead to an increase in the bank deposits and money supply by $8.2 billion
= [1/(0.05+(1-0.95)] × $820 million
= [1/0.05+0.05] × $820 million
= (1/0.1) × $820 million
= 10 × $820 million
= $8.2 billion
Company X classifies the total transportation costs paid to deliver goods to customers as a mixed cost with respect to the units sold. During the current year, the units sold have decreased unexpectedly, but are still within the relevant range. Which of the following statement is (are) correct about the transportation costs? Group of answer choices The per unit transportation costs increase as the units sold decrease. The total transportation costs increase proportionally to the decrease of units sold. The per unit variable component of transportation costs remains constant. The per unit transportation costs decrease proportionally to the decrease of units sold. The total transportation costs decrease proportionally to the decrease of units sold.
Answer:
The per unit transportation costs increase as the units sold decrease.
The per unit variable component of transportation costs remains constant.
Explanation:
mixed costs are costs that share both a fixed component and a variable one, e.g. transportation costs generally are mixed because depreciation, insurance and sometimes even maintenance costs are fixed, while gasoline and drivers' wages are variable.
If total units transported decrease, then the fixed part of transportation costs will increase on a per unit basis. Even if the variable part remains stable, total costs per unit will still increase.
We can plug in some numbers:
Fixed expenses = $1,000 per month
variable costs = $2 per package
total packages sent during month 1 = 500
total costs = $1,000 + ($2 x 500) = $2,000
costs per unit = $4
if suddenly the number of packages delivered drops to 300
total costs = $1,000 + ($2 x 300) = $1,600
costs per unit = $5.33
a 40% decrease in the number of packages delivered resulted in a 33.33% increase in costs per unit delivered.

Your non-debt liabilities such as accounts payable are forecasted to increase by . Assume your beginning debt is . What amount of equity and what amount of debt would you need to issue to cover the net new financing in order to keep your debt-equity ratio constant? The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 temporarily allows 100% bonus depreciation (effectively expensing capital expenditures). However, we will still include depreciation forecasting in this chapter and in these problems in anticipation of the return of standard depreciation practices during your career. The amount of equity to issue will be
Answer:
Since the numbers are missing, I looked for a similar question:
"you forecast net income of $50,000 and ending assets of $500,000. Your firm's payout ratio is 10%. Your beginning stockholders equity is $300,000 and your beginning total liabilities are $120,000. Your non-debt liabilities such as accounts payable are forecasted to increase by $10,000. What is you net new financing needed for next year?"
we must first determine the debt to assets ratio = $120,000 / ($300,000 + $120,000) = 0.2857
since total assets are expected to be $500,000, then total liabilities + equity will also = $500,000 (basic accounting equation)
since debt to equity ratio should remain constant, then:
total liabilities = $500,000 x 0.2857 = $142,850
total equity = $500,000 - $142,850 = $357,150
we can verify our calculations:
old debt to equity ratio = $120,000 / $300,000 = 0.4
new debt to equity ratio = $142,820 / $357,150 = 0.4
since your current equity = $300,000, you will need to raise $57,150
your current liabilities + future accounts payable = $120,000 + $10,000 = $130,000, therefore, you will need to issue debt for $142,850 - $130,000 = $12,850

Jamie's Motor Home Sales currently sells 1,100 Class A motor homes, 2,200 Class C motor homes, and 2,800 pop-up trailers each year. Jamie is considering adding a mid-range camper and expects that if she does so she can sell 1,500 of them. However, if the new camper is added, Jamie expects that her Class A sales will decline to 850 units while the Class C camper sales decline to 2,000. The sales of pop-ups will not be affected. Class A motor homes sell for an average of $140,000 each. Class C homes are priced at $59,500 and the pop-ups sell for $5,000 each. The new mid-range camper will sell for $42,900. What is the erosion cost of adding the mid-range camper
Answer:
$46,900,000
Explanation:
Calculation for the erosion cost of adding the mid-range camper
Erosion cost = [(1,100 - 850) × $140,000] + [(2,200 -2,000) × $59,500]
Erosion cost =(250×$140,000)+(200×$59,500)
Erosion cost =$35,000,000+$11,900,000
Erosion cost = $46,900,000
Therefore the erosion cost of adding the mid-range camper will be $46,900,000
The equity is owned by LP investors and MP in a ratio of 5 to 1. The total invested equity is $120. The outstanding mortgage balance at the end of 2019 is $240. The property sells for $400 net of all expenses at the end of 2019. The rules established for sales proceeds are, first pay the mortgage off, next return capital to equity partners and finally split all remaining proceeds 70 LP/30 MP. How much cash flow will the MP get from the sales transaction (do not put the $ sign in the answer)
Answer:
MP will get a cash flow of:
$128
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Equity shares
LP = 5
MP = 1
Ratio of equity = 5 : 1
Invested equity = $120
Share of invested equity:
LP = 5/6 * $120 = $100
MP = 1/6 * $120 = $20
Mortgage = $240
Property Sales = $400
Sales Proceeds Rules:
Property Sales = $400
Mortgage 240
Remaining 160
Equity share:
LP (100)
MP (20)
Balance 40
Sharing Ratio:
LP = 70% * $40 = $28
MP = 30% * $40 = $12
MP's cash flow:
Equity = $100
Balance Shared = $28
Total = $128
Alameda Tile sells products to many people remodeling their homes and thinks that it could profitably offer courses on tile installation, which might also increase the demand for its products. The basic installation course has the following (tentative) price and cost characteristics. Tuition $ 800 per student Variable costs (tiles, supplies, and so on) 480 per student Fixed costs (advertising, salaries, and so on) 160,000 per year Required: a. What enrollment will enable Alameda Tile to break even? b. How many students will enable Alameda Tile to make an operating profit of $80,000 for the year? c. Assume that the projected enrollment for the year is 800 students for each of the following (considered independently): 1. What will be the operating profit (for 800 students)? 2. What would be the operating profit if the tuition per student (that is, sales price) decreased by 10 percent? Increased by 20 percent? 3. What would be the operating profit if variable costs per student decreased by 10 percent? Increased by 20 percent? 4. Suppose that fixed costs for the year are 10 percent lower than projected, whereas variable costs per student are 10 percent higher than projected. What would be the operating profit for the year?
Answer:
Alameda Tile
a. The enrollment to enable Alameda Tile to break even = 500 students.
b. To make an operating profit of $80,000, number of students
= 750 students
c. With projected enrollment for the year of 800 students:
1. Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs
= ($320 * 800) - $160,000
= $96,000
2. a) Operating Profit, if the tuition per student decreased by 10%.
New selling price = $720 which is $800 * (1 - 10%)
Variable cost 480
Contribution $240
Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs
= ($240 * 800) - $160,000
= $32,000
2. b) Operating Profit, if the tuition per student increased by 20%.
New selling price = $960 which is $800 * (1 + 20%)
Variable cost 480
Contribution $480
Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs
= ($480 * 800) - $160,000
= $224,000
3. a) Operating Profit, if variable costs per student decreased by 10%.
Selling price = $800
Variable cost 432 $480 * (1 - 10%)
Contribution $368
Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs
= ($368 * 800) - $160,000
= $134,400
3. b) Operating Profit, if variable costs per student increased by 20%.
Selling price = $800
Variable cost 576 $480 * (1 + 20%)
Contribution $224
Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs
= ($224 * 800) - $160,000
= $19,200
4. Operating profit, if fixed costs reduced by 10% and variable cost increased by 10%:
Selling price = $800
Variable cost 528 $480 * (1 + 10%)
Contribution $272
Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs
= ($272 * 800) - $144,000 ($160,000 * (1 - 10%)
= $73,600
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Tentative Price and Cost Characteristics:
Tuition $ 800 per student
Variable costs (tiles, supplies, and so on) 480 per student
Fixed costs (advertising, salaries, and so on) 160,000 per year
Per unit Tentative
Selling price = $800
Variable cost 480
Contribution $320
b) Computation of break-even point:
To break-even with fixed cost of $160,000, sales unit will be equal to:
Fixed cost/Contribution per unit = $160,000/$320 = 500 students
c) Fixed cost + Target Profit /Contribution per unit:
= ($160,000 + $80,000)/$320
= $240,000/320
= 750 students

QUESTIONS: What is the state’s role in enforcing federal drug laws? Even in states where marijuana is legal, many large employers have company-wide policies that prohibit the hiring of anyone who tests positive for recent marijuana use. How do you think Congress should respond to protect the rights of citizens to sell and use marijuana in states where it is legalized while protecting the interests of employers? Given this complex dynamic and the legal theory of preemption, do you think marijuana is really legal in the states in which it is legalized? Why or why not
Answer:
States have a high duty to adhere to the federal laws and state rule as well, wherever it is applicable. But in case the state has unique requirement, it may enact and enforce its own law which suits the local population rather than use of federal law. When it comes to federal drug laws, the states have a responsibility to work along with the federal authorities and government to make sure that the laws are in place. This includes not bringing about conflicting laws.
Congress should allow the employers to set their own rules. For example, if an employer does not allow employees to drink during working hours, there is no problem with it. Similarly if an employer chooses not to hire anyone with visible tattoo on their body, then that is completely employers’ discretion. Similarly if the employers have company wide policy to avoid marijuana, then that is employers’ business. There are many NGOs where the employers do not allow smoking or recruit smokers. There is nothing wrong with it. Now, unless an employee has medical justification for consuming marijuana, the employer should be within their right to decide on action on the employee. This is why Congress should not interfere in the employer-employee relationship.
Given that in absolute conflict, the federal laws trump the state laws, marijuana is not legal in any of the states even if the state law permits it. The only reason the US Government is not taking action against recreational marijuana in the mentioned states is because it is too cumbersome and the outcome is not that significant. There is not a great deal of state benefit by arresting the farmers growing marijuana or the people distributing it. Thus it is still illegal but the government is not acting upon it.
A problem of interest to health officials (and others) is to determine the effects of smoking during pregnancy on infant health. One measure of infant health is birth weight; a birth weight that is too low can put an infant at risk for contracting various illnesses. Since factors other than cigarette smoking that affect birth weight are likely to be correlated with smoking, we should take those factors into account. For example, higher income generally results in access to better prenatal care, as well as better nutrition for the mother. An equation that recognizes this is bwght 5 b0 1 b1cigs 1 b2 faminc 1 u. (i) What is the most likely sign for b2
Answer:
β2 should have a positive sign
Explanation:
The regression equation is:
βwght = β0+β1cigs+β2faminc+μ
The equation tells us that the birth weight of a child is dependent on factors like cigarette consumption and family income.
β1 should have a negative sign because smoking during pregnancy has an adverse effect on birth weight. So there would be a negative correlation between birth weight and cigarette consumption.
β2 should have a positive sign. This is because while pregnant, a family with more income has the ability to provide better prenatal care and also better nutrition to the expectant mother. Therefore we have a positive correlation.

Answer:
C. Both of the above
Explanation:
Insurance policy and repair order are both contracts.
The insurance policy is an agreement between the insurer (person or company) and the policyholder (the person who takes the cover). On the other hand, the repair order is also a contract because it is an agreement between the company who will provide the service repair and the customer who will receive the service.
As long as both parties consent to the agreement, are capable of doing what is asked in the agreement and that the agreement is legal, then it is considered a contract.

By observing an individual’s behavior in the situations outlined below, determine therelevant income elasticities of demand for each good (i.e., whether the good is normal orinferior). If you cannot determine the income elasticity, what additional informationmight you need?
a. Bill spends all his income on books and coffee. He finds $20 while rummagingthrough a used paperback bin at the bookstore. He immediately buys a newhardcover book of poetry.
b. Bill loses $10 he was going to use to buy a double espresso. He decides to sell hisnew book at a discount to his friend and use the money to buy coffee.
c. Being bohemian becomes the latest teen fad. As a result, coffee and book pricesrise by 25 percent. Bill lowers his consumption of both goods by the same percentage.
d. Bill drops out of art school and gets an M.B.A. instead. He stops reading books anddrinking coffee. Now he reads The Wall Street Journal and drinks bottled mineralwater
Answer:
Normal goods are those goods which see their demand rise when income rises and fall when income falls. Inferior goods on the other hand will see their demand fall when income rises and vice versa.
a. Book = Normal Good
Coffee = Neutral good
The demand for Books increased when Bill had more money which makes it a normal good.
The demand for coffee did not change when new income came thereby making it a neutral good.
b. Book = Normal Good
Coffee = Inferior good
The demand for Books decreased when Bill had less money which makes it a normal good.
The demand for coffee increased when Bill's income reduced thereby making it an inferior good.
c. Book = Normal Good = Coffee
Both coffee and books are normal goods because Bill is buying less of them when their prices increase because it means that Bill has less income to spend on them.
d. More information needed.
We are unable to tell which goods are normal or inferior as we are not given information on the relative changes in demand as a result of income changing.

Linden, Inc. uses a 6,900 square foot factory space that it rents for $3,500 a month for all its manufacturing activities. Linden has decided to switch to an activity-based costing system, and has identified its activities as follows: Preparation and Setup, Machining, Finishing, and Quality Control. 3,100 square feet of the factory are used for machining, while 1,400 square feet (each) are used for Preparation and Setup and Quality Control. Finishing uses 1,000 square feet. When assigning indirect costs to each activity, how much factory rent should be assigned to the Preparation and Setup cost pool
Answer: $710.14
Explanation:
Out of the total space of 6,900 square foot, Preparation and Setup uses 1,400 out of this.
Rent is $3,500
The total rent to be apportioned to it will therefore be;
= 1,400/6,900 * 3,500
= $710.14
Is some number of occupational illnesses and injuries an acceptable part of doing business? Why or why not? Explain your answers.
Answer:
Explanation:
No injury or illness is ever an acceptable part of doing business. It reflects poorly on the company if they don't take the proper steps to prevent illness and injury. OSHA works hard to make sure work places are safe, and levy large fines if they don't meet safety requirements. In addition, if an injury or illness occurs the company can be sued, depending on the severity, the company could go out of business.
