Answer and Explanation:
A. The point estimate of individuals that would provide yes responses is the sample proportion. The sample proportion is calculated by dividing number of yes responses by sample size:
p = x/n = 200/700= 0.2857
B. The standard error of the population is the square root of the product of the point estimate and it's complement divided by the sample size given by
√p(1-p)/n
=√0.2857(1-0.2857)/700= 0.0170
C. For confidence level 95%, z score is calculated 1-0.95= 0.05/2= 0.025
Z score checked under the table = 1.96
Boundaries=
P-1.96 *standard error and p+1.96 *standard error
= 0.2857-1.96*0.0170= -0.25238
=0.2857+1.96*0.0170= 0.31902

On January 1 of Year 1, Congo Express Airways issued $3,240,000 of 8% bonds that pay interest semiannually on January 1 and July 1. The bond issue price is $2,980,000 and the market rate of interest for similar bonds is 9%. The bond premium or discount is being amortized at a rate of $8,667 every six months. After accruing interest at year end, the company's December 31, Year 1 balance sheet should reflect total liabilities associated with the bond issue in the amount of:
a.$3,482,666.
b.$2,867,734.
c.$3,126,934.
d.$2,997,334.
e.$3,612,266.
Answer:
d.$2,997,334.
Explanation:
bond's carrying value = bond's issue price + (amortized discount x 2) = $2,980,000 + ($8,667 x 2) = $2,980,000 + $17,334 = $2,997,334
the journal entry when the bonds were issued:
January 1, 202x, bonds issued at a discount
Dr Cash 2,980,000
Dr Discount on bonds payable 260,000
Cr Bonds payable 3,240,000
Discount on bonds playable is a contra liability account that decreases the carrying value of bonds payable. As discount is amortized, the carrying value of bonds payable increases

Bermuda Triangle Corporation (BTC) currently has 520,000 shares of stock outstanding that sell for $85 per share. Assume no market imperfections or tax effects exist. Determine the share price and new number of shares outstanding if:
a. BTC has a five-for-three stock split.
b. BTC has a 12 percent stock dividend.
c. BTC has a 43.5 percent stock dividend.
d. BTC has a four-for-seven reverse stock split.
Answer:
a. BTC has a five-for-three stock split.
new number of shares outstanding = (520,000 / 3) x 5 = 866,666.67 ≈ 866,667
new market price per stock = ($85 / 5) x 3 = $51
b. BTC has a 12 percent stock dividend.
new number of shares outstanding = 520,000 x 1.12 = 585,400
new market price per stock = $85 / 1.12 = $75.89
c. BTC has a 43.5 percent stock dividend.
new number of shares outstanding = 520,000 x 1.435 = 746,200
new market price per stock = $85 / 1.435 = $59.23
d. BTC has a four-for-seven reverse stock split.
new number of shares outstanding = (520,000 / 7) x 4 = 297,142.86 ≈ 297,413
new market price per stock = ($85 / 4) x 7 = $148.75

You would like to invest $24,000 and have a portfolio expected return of 11.5 percent. You are considering two securities, A and B. Stock A has an expected return of 18.6 percent and B has an expected return of 7.4 percent. Approximately how much should you invest in Stock A if you invest the balance in Stock B? a) $7,137 b) $7,411 c) $8,786 d) $8,626 e) $7,807
Answer:
c) $8,786
Explanation:
0.186A + 0.074B = (24,000 x 0.115)
0.186A + 0.074B = 2,760
A + B = 24,000
where A = amount invested in stock A and B = amount invested in stock B
A = 24,000 - B
0.186(24,000 - B) + 0.074B = 2,760
4,464 - 0.186B + 0.074B = 2,760
4,464 - 0.112B = 2,760
4,464 - 2,760 = 0.112B
1,704 = 0.112B
B = 1,704 / 0.112 = $15,214.29
A = $24,000 - $15,214.29 = $8,785.71 ≈ $8,786
A potential obligation that depends on the future outcome of past events is a contingent liability. true false
Answer:
TRUE
Explanation:
A potential obligation that depends on the future outcome of past events is a contingent liability!
- An obligation is something that is to be done
- A potential obligation is a thing or activity that is among the options of stuff that can be done
- When something depends on the future outcome of past events, it introduces or carries with it, the cost of waiting (for future outcomes)
- A contingent liability is something that poses probability of loss instead of gain. The opposite of liability is asset.
So in business, a potential obligation or action that depends on the future outcome of past events is a contingent loss rather than gain.
Why is Apple’s industry so competitive and how could this affect the ethical risks in Apple’s operations?
Answer:
Apple industry is the consumer goods technological sector.
Explanation:
This sector is very competitive because it tends to be very profitable, which means that it attracts a large number of skilled entrepreneurs and wokers who create high quality products that customers demand. This is specially true of the mobile phone sub-sector, with industry giants like Samsung and Huawei being in stiff competition with Apple.
Because of this, Apple faces several ethical risks: for one, it faces the risk of not practicing predatory pricing techniques like dumping in order to drive out competition, because this would be unfair not only to the other firms, but also to the other companies.
Another ethical risks would be more relevant for managers, and that is that managers should avoid to overestimate their ability to increase profits, because this may create false expectations on the board, on stockholders, and on the customers, leading to malinvestment, and other negative eocnomic consequences.
Deal or No Deal. You are a contestant with 5 suitcases left: $1 $30,000 $100,000 $300,000 $750,000 The bank offers you $250,000 to walk away from the game. Based on EXPECTED VALUE, explain whether or not you choose the deal.
Answer:
Deal
Explanation:
Amount of cash left in the 5 Suitcase = $1 , $30000, $100000, $300000, $750000
The probability of selecting each bad is equal and it is 1/5
Thus, the expected value of prize = 0.2(1+30000+100000+300000+750000)
= 0.2 * 1180001
= $236,000.2 0
Since the bank is offering amount of $250,000 which is greater than the expected value, then it is considered as a deal.
Chef salaries are usually highest in elegant restaurants in major metropolitan areas.
True or false
Answer: True
Explanation:
The amount that a chef is paid is dependent on the restaurant they work in. A chef that works in a restaurant that is not well known and has few customers will be paid less because that's what the restaurant can afford.
This will therefore change if the chef works in an elegant restaurant in major metropolitan areas where the wealthier people in society live. Such restaurants demand better skill from their chefs so that they may impress their wealthy clients and charge them higher amounts for the food.
They will compensate their chefs for their better skillset and will be able to do so because they can afford to. Chefs working in such restaurants therefore command the highest salaries.

Zebco Inc is evaluating a project that has a cost of $1,000 and will produce end-of-year net cash inflows of $500 per year for 3 years. The required rate of return for this project's is 10 percent. The difference between the project's IRR and its MIRR is closest to:_________.
a. 5.09%
b. 5.75%
c. 4.31%
Answer:
a. 5.09%
Explanation:
initial outlay = -$1,000
cash flow 1 = $500
cash flow 2 = $500
cash flow 3 = $500
the simplest way to determine the IRR and MIRR is to use an excel spreadsheet and the IRR and MIRR functions:
IRR = 23.38%

MIRR = 18.29%
difference between them = 23.38% - 18.29% = 5.09%
Many businesses borrow money during periods of increased business activity to finance inventory and accounts receivable. For example, Mattel builds up its inventory to meet the needs of retailers selling to Christmas shoppers. A large portion of Mattel's sales are on credit. As a result, Mattel often collects cash from its sales several months after Christmas. Assume on November 1, 2018, Mattel borrowed $6 million cash from Metropolitan Bank and signed a promissory note that matures in six months. The interest rate was 8.0 percent payable at maturity. The accounting period ends December 31.
Required:
1, 2 & 3. Prepare the required journal entries to record the note on November 1, 2018, interest on the maturity date, April 30, 2019, assuming that interest has not been recorded since December 31, 2018

3. Apr 30, 2019
Notes payable (short-term) 6,000,000
Interest Payable 80,000
Interest Expense 160,000
Cash 6,240,000
Explanation:
1. $6,000,000 cash Mattel acquired from Metropolitan Bank for signing a short-term note (matures in six months).
2. 6,000,000 x .08 x 2/12 = 80,000
2 months (Nov and Dec) time that Mattel accrued $80,000 worth of interest.
