Explanation:
(i) Should we include attend along with alcohol as explanatory variables in a multiple regression model? (Think about how you would interpret beta-alcohol.)
No. We should not include attend along with alcohol as explanatory variables in a multiple regression model. This is due to the fact that a high degree of negative correlation exists between attend along with alcohol and including both of them will bring about multi collinearity.
(ii) Should SAT and hsGPA be included as explanatory variables? Explain.
Yes. SAT and hsGPA should be included as explanatory variables. This is important to overcome bias of the model.

Explanation:
Based on market values, Gubler's Gym has an equity multiplier of 1.46 times. Shareholders require a return of 10.91 percent on the company's stock and a pretax return of 4.84 percent on the company's debt. The company is evaluating a new project that has the same risk as the company itself. The project will generate annual aftertax cash flows of $277,000 per year for 7 years. The tax rate is 39 percent. What is the most the company would be willing to spend today on the project
Answer:
The answer is "5.4% and 15,23,500".
Explanation:
Calculating the capital cost:
[tex]=(1-\frac{1}{1.46})\times 10.91\% \times (1-39\%)+(\frac{1}{1.46})\times 4.84\% \\\\=(\frac{1.46-1}{1.46})\times \frac{10.91}{100} \times (\frac{100-39}{100})+(\frac{1}{1.46})\times \frac{4.84}{100} \\\\ =(\frac{0.46}{1.46})\times \frac{10.91}{100} \times (\frac{61}{100})+(\frac{1}{1.46})\times \frac{4.84}{100} \\\\=\frac{306.1346}{14600}+\frac{4.84}{146} \\\\= 0.021+0.033 \\\\ =0.054\\\\= 5.4\%[/tex]
Maximum amount to be spent
[tex]=\frac{277,000\times 100 }{5.4} \times (1-\frac{1}{(1.054)^7})\\\\=\frac{277,000\times 100 }{5.4} \times (1-\frac{1}{1.44})\\\\=\frac{277,000\times 100 }{5.4} \times (1-0.7)\\\\=277,000 \times 100\times 0.055\\\\=\$15,23,500\\[/tex]

Crane, Inc. a manufacturer of gourmet potato chips, employs activity-based costing. The budgeted data for each of the activity cost pools is provided below for the year 2020.
Activity Cost Pools Estimated Overhead Estimated Use of Cost Drivers per Activity
Ordering and receiving $117,600 16,000 orders
Food processing 530,625 62,500 machine hours
Packaging 1,701,120 443,000 labor hours
For 2020, the company had 11,600 orders and used 50,900 machine hours, and labor hours totaled 490,000.
Required:
Calculate the overhead rates for each activity.
Answer:
Ordering and receiving = $7.35 per order
Food processing = $8.49 per machine hour
Packaging = $3.84 per labor hour
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,
We can calculate overhead rate by using following formula,
Overhead Rate = Estimated Overhead ÷ Estimated Use of Cost Drivers per Activity
So, by putting the value in the formula, we get
Overhead rate of Ordering and receiving = $117,600 ÷ 16,000 = $7.35 per order
Overhead rate of Food processing = 530,625 ÷ 62,500 = $8.49 per machine hour
Overhead rate of Packaging = 1,701,120 ÷ 443,000 = $3.84 per labor hour
Well-managed companies set aside money to pay for emergencies that inevitably arise in the course of doing business. A commercial solid-waste recycling and disposal company in Mexico City puts 0.5% of its after-tax income into such an account. (a) How much will the company have after 7 years if after-tax income averages $15.2 million and inflation and market interest rates are 5% per year and 9% per year, respectively
Answer:
$699,200
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,
After tax income = $15,200,000
Amount in account = 0.5% × $15,200,000 = $76,000
Time period = 7 years
inflation = 5%
Interest rate = 9%
So, Total amount after 7 years = $76,000 × (F/A, 9%, 7)
= $76,000 ×[ [tex]((1+.09)^{7}-1 )[/tex] ÷ .09]
= $76,000 × [.82803912082 ÷ .09]
= $76,000 × 9.2
= $699,200

Required: what adjusting journal entries, if any, would you make for each of these items? Explain why each adjustment is necessary. (AICPA adapted)
Answer:
The adjustments made are as attached in the excel sheet. As the goods are entered prior to shipment in the first item, the inventory control variation is to be made.
Explanation:
As the goods are shipped before taking the physical inventory, the inventory control is not made. As the shipment got prior to the physical inventory, the control amount is credited. However, the auditee credited Inventory Control for the cost of these goods on December 16, one of these two credits must be removed.
For the third item, similar situation happened where the inventory control is made.

Should a room attendant share information with others about a guest if he/she thinks what the guest is doing is morally wrong?
Answer:
No, a room attendant should not share information with others about a guest if he/she thinks what the guest is doing is morally wrong.
Explanation:
Morality is a subjective issue. Even at that, what may be morally wrong can still be legal. Hence, there is no reason for a room attendant to share information with others about a guest if he/she thinks what the guest is doing is morally wrong.
For example, smoking shisha or drinking alcohol may be morally wrong to a room attendant, but it is legal for the guest to do in a guest house or hotel, hence the guest is within his rights to do so. Therefore, there is no need for a room attendant to inform others in as much it is legal.
how market forces would act to return the market to state of equilibrium at the new equilibrium position.
Answer:
market forces would shift upwards or downwards
Explanation:
during a situation of high demand, supply would shift to the right in order to achieve more sales or in a situation of high supply the demand can be shifted to the right by decreasing prices. At low supply demand can be shifted leftwards by increasing prices and when demand is lower, supply falls due to lower sales
Market factors would change to the upside or downside would act to return the market to state of equilibrium at the new equilibrium position.
What do you mean by equilibrium?When economic forces are in balance, there is said to be an economic equilibrium. In the absence of outside influences, economic variables essentially hold true to their equilibrium levels. Market equilibrium and economic equilibrium are two different concepts.
The set of economic factors that the economy is normally driven toward by supply and demand and other conventional economic processes is known as economic equilibrium.
The concept of economic equilibrium can also be used to describe a wide range of elements, including interest rates or overall consumer spending.
The point of equilibrium denotes a theoretical state of rest where all economic activities that "should" occur have actually happened, given the initial conditions of all significant economic variables.
Economists who think of economic processes as akin to physical phenomena like velocity, friction, heat, or fluid pressure draw the notion of equilibrium from the physical sciences. Nothing else changes once a system's physical forces are in equilibrium.

Desmond is 25 years old and he participates in his employer’s 401(k) plan. During the year, he contributed $3,000 to his 401(k) account. What is Desmond’s 2016 saver’s credit in each of the following alternative scenarios?
a) Desmond is not married and has no dependents. His AGI after deducting his 401(k) contribution is $34,000.
b) Desmond is not married and has no dependents. His AGI after deducting his 401(k) contribution is $17,500.
c) Desmond files as a head of household and has an AGI of $44,000.
d) Desmond and his wife file jointly and report an AGI of $30,000 for the year.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
The savers credit is mostly used to motivate taxpayers so that they'll contribute to their retirement plans.
a. Desmond is not married and has no dependents. His AGI after deducting his 401(k) contribution is $34,000.
In this case, there'll be no credit that's available for Desmond as he'll be all under files AGI and his maximum savers credit will be $0.
b) Desmond is not married and has no dependents. His AGI after deducting his 401(k) contribution is $17,500.
Since he's single and doesn't have dependents, and his AGI is $17500, therefore, the saver's credit of Desmond will be 50% of $2000 which will be:
= 50% × $2000.
= 0.5 × $2000
= $1000
c) Desmond files as a head of household and has an AGI of $44,000.
Here, his percentage of saver's credit will be 10% of $2000 because he AGI of $44,000 which falls between $30001 - $46125. Therefore savers income will be:
= 10% × $2000
= 0.1 × $2000
= $200
d) Desmond and his wife file jointly and report an AGI of $30,000 for the year.
Here, the saver's percentage used will be 50% of $2000 and this will be:
= 50% × $2000
= 0.5 × $2000
= $1000
How much interest (to the nearest dollar) would be saved on the following loan if the condominium were financed for 15 rather than 30 years? A $256,000 condominium bought with a 30% down payment and the balance financed for 30 years at 3.05%
Answer:
The interest saved is $49569.228 or $49569.
Explanation:
Total price of Condominium=$256,000
Downpayment=30% of total price=30%x$256,000= 76800
Amount Financed=Total Payment-Downpayment
Amount Financed=256000-76800=179200
Annual Interest rate=3.05%
Monthly interest rate =[tex]\frac{3.05\%}{12}[/tex]=0.25146%
The montly installment is calculated as follows:
[tex]M=\dfrac{P}{\dfrac{1-\left(\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{r}{100}}\right)^{nt}}{\dfrac{r}{100}}}[/tex]
Here
M is the montly installmentP is the amount financedr is the montly rate in percentagen is the number of yearst is the number of months in a yearCase 1 when the number of years is 30.
So the equation becomes
[tex]M=\dfrac{P}{\dfrac{1-\left(\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{r}{100}}\right)^{nt}}{\dfrac{r}{100}}}\\\\M=\dfrac{179200}{\dfrac{1-\left(\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{0.25146}{100}}\right)^{30*12}}{\dfrac{0.25146}{100}}}\\\\M=\dfrac{179200}{\dfrac{1-\left(\dfrac{1}{1+0.0025146}\right)^{30*12}}{0.0025146}}\\\\M=\dfrac{179200}{\dfrac{1-\left(\dfrac{1}{1.0025146}\right)^{30*12}}{0.0025146}}\\\\M=\dfrac{179200\times {0.0025146}}{1-\left(\dfrac{1}{1.0025146}\right)^{30*12}}\\M=\dfrac{450.61632}{0.59510 }\\M=\$757.2087[/tex]
So the total amount paid in installments is
[tex]T=M\times n\times t[/tex]
So the equation becomes
[tex]T=M\times n\times t\\T=757.2087\times 30\times 12\\T=\$272595.132[/tex]
So the interest is given as
[tex]I=T-P\\I=272595.132-179200\\I=\$93395.132[/tex]
So a total interest of $93395.132 is paid when the amount is financed for 30 years.
Case 2 when the number of years is 15.
So the equation becomes
[tex]M=\dfrac{P}{\dfrac{1-\left(\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{r}{100}}\right)^{nt}}{\dfrac{r}{100}}}\\\\M=\dfrac{179200}{\dfrac{1-\left(\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{0.25146}{100}}\right)^{15*12}}{\dfrac{0.25146}{100}}}\\\\M=\dfrac{179200}{\dfrac{1-\left(\dfrac{1}{1+0.0025146}\right)^{15*12}}{0.0025146}}\\\\M=\dfrac{179200}{\dfrac{1-\left(\dfrac{1}{1.0025146}\right)^{15*12}}{0.0025146}}\\\\M=\dfrac{179200\times {0.0025146}}{1-\left(\dfrac{1}{1.0025146}\right)^{15*12}}\\M=\dfrac{450.61632}{0.36368 }\\M=\$1239.0328[/tex]
So the total amount paid in installments is
[tex]T=M\times n\times t[/tex]
So the equation becomes
[tex]T=M\times n\times t\\T=1239.0328\times 15\times 12\\T=\$223025.904[/tex]
So the interest is given as
[tex]I=T-P\\I=223025.904-179200\\I=\$43825.904[/tex]
So a total interest of $43825.904 is paid when the amount is financed for 15 years.
The savings on interest if the condominium is financed for 15 years is given as
[tex]S=I_{30}-I_{15}\\S=93395.132-43825.904\\S=49569.228[/tex]
The interest saved is $49569.228 or $49569.

Explanation:
XYZ Inc. is seeking an investment of $64,000 from your venture capital firm. After extensive economic analysis, you estimate that the exit value of the company will be $307,000 4 years from now. Because of the risk, you will only invest if you can generate of return of 14% per year on your investment. The founders want to have 100,000 shares of the company. What is the post-money valuation of the company
Answer:
$181,768.65
Explanation:
Post-money valuation = Exit value / (1 + Required return)^years
Post-money valuation = $307,000 / (1+14%)^4
Post-money valuation = $307,000 / (1.14)^4
Post-money valuation = $307,000 / 1.68896016
Post-money valuation = $181768.6451526482
Post-money valuation = $181,768.65
So, the post-money valuation of the company is $181,768.65.

A movie theater company obtains the following estimated elasticity of demand.
The absolute value of the short run price elasticity of demand for movie tickets is 0.85.
The absolute value of of the long run price elasticity of demand for movie tickets is 3.2.
The cross price elasticity of demand for good X, another product sold by the theater, with respect to the price of movie tickets is - 0.26
The income elasticity of demand for movie tickets is 0.75.
Answer each of the following by referring to the given elasticities.
a. If the theater raises movie ticket prices by 10 percent, by what percentage and in what direction will the quantity demanded for movie tickets change in the short run?
b. Explain why the short-run price elasticity of demand for movie tickets differs from the long-run price elasticity of demand for movie tickets.
c. What will happen to total revenue from movie ticket sales in the long run if movie ticket prices increase? Explain using the relative percentage changes in price and quantity.
d. Are movie tickets a normal good or an inferior good? Explain. (e) Given the increase in the price of movie tickets in part (a), what would be the impact on the demand for good X? Use the appropriate graph for good X to illustrate your answer.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given:
Short-run price elasticity = - 0.85
Long-run price elasticity = - 3.2
Cross-price elasticity = - 0.26
Income elasticity = 0.75
a. If the theater raises movie ticket prices by 10 percent it means that percentage of price change is 10%.
[tex]Elasticity = \frac{Percentage change in Quantity demanded}{Percentage change in price} \\\\-0.85 = \frac{Percent change in Quantity demanded\\}{10} \\\\Percent change in Quantity demanded = -0.85*10\\ \\ = -8.5[/tex]
Thus, quantity demanded falls by 8.5 percent.
b. Short-run price elasticity is different from long-run elasticity due to the time horizon. When individuals have more time they can switch to cheaper alternatives. While, it takes time to adjust in the short-run as the time horizon is not much. So short-run elasticity is less elastic than in the long-run.
c.
In the long-run demand for movie tickets is very elastic. So as price rises in the long-run, quantity demanded falls by a greater proportion. This will cause total revenue to fall in the long-run.
d. Normal goods are goods which have a positive income elasticity. This means for normal goods demand increases as income increases. But in case of inferior goods, demand is inversely related to income. As income rises demand for inferior goods decreases.
Since in this case, income elasticity is 0.75 (positive) it can be concluded that movie tickets are normal goods.
e. Good X is the related good to movie tickets. As cross price elasticity is -0.26 it means that as price of movie tickets rises by 1 percent demand for good X will fall by 0.26 percent.
Thus, as demand for good X and price of movie tickets are inversely related to each other it can be said that they are complementary goods.
If the price of movie tickets are increased by 10%, quantity demanded would increase by 8.5%.
b. The short run elasticity of demand differs from the long run elasticity of demand because in the short run there is limited time to search for suitable suitable alternatives for movies.
c. If the price of movie tickets are increased revenue would decline because demand is elastic.
d. Movie tickets are a normal good. This is because its coefficient of elasticity is greater than zero.
e. If the price of movie tickets are increased, the demand for good X would decline. This is because the two goods are complements.
What is the price elasticity of demand?
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one.
What are normal and inferior goods?
Normal goods are goods that are goods whose demand increases when income increases and falls when income falls. Inferior goods are goods whose demand falls when income rises and increases when income falls.

Assume that three identical units of merchandise are purchased during October, as follows: Units Cost October 5 Purchase 1 $ 5 12 Purchase 1 7 28 Purchase 1 9 Total 3 $21 Assume one unit is sold on October 31 for $15. Determine Cost of Merchandise Sold, Gross profit, and Ending Inventory under the FIFO method.
Answer:
Cost of merchandise sold = $5
Closing inventory=$16
Gross profit =$20
Explanation:
Under the FIFO system , inventories are priced using the price of the oldest batch in the stock, after which the price of the next oldest batch and this is done in turn. It is based on the principle that the first batch that arrives the store should be issued first.
Using the FIFO method of the perpetual inventory, the 1 unit sold by the company will be priced as follows:
1 units at a price of $5 = 1× $5= $5
Cost of merchandise sold = $5
Closing inventory = Total cost of golds in stock less the cost of goods sold
= 21 - 5= 16
Gross profit = Sales value - cost of goods sold
= $15-$5= $20
Cost of merchandise sold = $5
Closing inventory=$16
Gross profit =$20
EcoFabrics has budgeted overhead costs of $1,039,500. It has allocated overhead on a plantwide basis to its two products (wool and cotton) using direct labor hours which are estimated to be 495,000 for the current year. The company has decided to experiment with activity-based costing and has created two activity cost pools and related activity cost drivers. These two cost pools are cutting (cost driver is machine hours) and design (cost driver is number of setups). Overhead allocated to the cutting cost pool is $396,000 and $643,500 is allocated to the design cost pool. Additional information related to these pools is as follows.
Wool Cotton Total
Machine hours 110,000 110,000 220,000
Number of setups 1,100 550 1,650
1. Calculate the overhead rate using activity based costing.
2. Determine the amount of overhead allocated to the wool product line and the cotton product line using activity-based costing.
3. Calculate the overhead rate using traditional approach.
4. What amount of overhead would be allocated to the wool and cotton product lines using the traditional approach, assuming direct labor hours were incurred evenly between the wool and cotton?
Answer:
1. Cutting $1.80 per machine hour
Design $390 per setup
2. Wool product line $627,000
Cotton Product line $412,500
3. Overhead rate $2.10
4. Wool Product line $519,750
Cotton Product line $519,750
Explanation:
1. Calculation to determine the overhead rate using activity based costing.
Overhead rate using the activity based costing
Cutting = Overhead / Total Machine hours
= $396,000 / 220,000
= $1.80 per machine hour
Design = Overhead / Number of setups
= $643,500 / 1,650
= $390 per setup
2. Calculation to determine the amount of overhead allocated to the wool product line and the cotton product line using activity-based costing
Overhead allocated to the wool product line and the cotton product line
Wool product line = (110,000 * $1.80) + (1,100 * $390)
Wool product line= $198,000 + $429,000
Wool product line= $627,000
Cotton Product line = (110,000 * $1.80) + (550 * $390)
Cotton Product line= $198,000 + $214,500
Cotton Product line= $412,500
3.Calculation to determine the overhead rate using traditional approach.
