Give an example of one good or service produced in the United States using the command model. Justify your example using research (where did you find this).
Answer:
An example of production under the command system in the United States is that of the production of roads and passable roads throughout the nation. In this case, it is the production of a public service, and as such it is controlled by the government in all stages of its production: from the identification of the need, through the tender, the construction authorization and the supervision of the results, everything is controlled by the government. This implies that individuals or private companies cannot by their own initiative create this type of road, but rather depend exclusively on the will of the government.
A stock sells for $10 per share. You purchase 100 shares for $10 a share (i.e., for $1,000), and after a year the price rises to $17.50. What will be the percentage return on your investment if you bought the stock on margin and the margin requirement was
(a) 25 percent,
(b) 50 percent, and
(c) 75 percent? (Ignore commissions, dividends, and interest expense.)
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below;
a. Rate of return
= (Selling price - purchase price) ÷ (purchase price × margin)
= ($17.50 - $10) ÷ ($10 × 25%)
= $7.50 ÷ 2.50
= 300%
b. Rate of return
= (Selling price - purchase price) ÷ (purchase price × margin)
= ($17.50 - $10) ÷ ($10 × 50%)
= $7.50 ÷ 5
= 150%
c. Rate of return
= (Selling price - purchase price) ÷ (purchase price × margin)
= ($17.50 - $10) ÷ ($10 × 75%)
= $7.50 ÷ 7.50
= 100%

During 2018, Raines Umbrella Corp. had sales of $810,000. Cost of goods sold, administrative and selling expenses, and depreciation expenses were $580,000, $90,000, and $135,000, respectively. In addition, the company had an interest expense of $91,000 and a tax rate of 21 percent. (Ignore any tax loss carryforward provisions and assume interest expense is fully deductible.) Suppose the company paid out $55,000 in cash dividends. If net capital spending and net working capital was zero, and if no new stock was issued during the year, what is the net new long-term debt
Answer:
$6,000
Explanation:
The computation of the net new long term debt is as follows:
But before that following calculations to be done:
Sales $810,000
Less: COGS ($580,000)
Less: S&A Expenses ($90,000)
Less: Depreciation ($135,000)
EBIT $5,000
Less: Interest ($91,000)
Taxable Income ($86,000)
Less: Taxes(21%) $0
Net Income(loss) ($86,000)
Now
OCF = EBIT + Depreciation - Taxes
= $5,000 + $135,000 - $0
= $140,000
Change in NWC = Net capital spending = Net new equity = 0
Cash flow from assets = OCF - Change in NWC - Net capital spending
= $140,000 - $0 - $0
= $140,000
Cash flow to stockholders = Dividends - Net New Equity
= $55,000 - $0
= $55,000
Cash flow to creditors = Cash flow from assets - Cash flow to stockholders
= $140,000 - $55,000
= $85,000
Cash flow to creditors = Interest - Net new LTD
$85,000 = $91,000 - Net new LTD
So,
Net new LTD is
= $91,000 - $85,000
= $6,000

On the morning of July 15, 2006, fourteen school buses were vandalized. The buses, property of Walt Whitman Middle School, were parked in the "bus barn" on campus. The vandals spray-painted the buses with pictures of dogs. Dogs happen to be the mascot of rival school Edgar Allan Poe Academy. This has led some to believe that some students from EAPA may be the culprits in the incident. Says the mother of one Walt Whitman student, "Oh, yeah, the [Edgar Allan] Poe [Academy] kids are definitely responsible. Those kids don't have any discipline, and they're still stewing over the loss of last week's football game." Police, however, say that they currently have no suspects.

It means that your personal interests (or family, friendships, financial, or other social factors) are being served, perhaps at the detriment of your employer's. In this situation, it is likely that you could compromise your judgment, decisions, or actions in the workplace by going ahead to acquire this land for your company because you want to serve your personal and community interests. However, you can avoid the conflict by clearly stating your positions to your company and allow other management staff to make the needed decision with regards to your land.

Synopsis:
Marshall Gordon, who works for a large chair manufacturing corporation, has unique insight and design skills that enable him to design the best chairs on the market. However, his coworkers do not enjoy working with him. In fact, they will often leave the company to avoid him. Now, two top designers have demanded that management do something about Marshall or they will resign.
Questions:
If you were a top leader, how would you respond to the ultimatum? Be specific. Explain why. What is Marshall missing with respect to his leadership abilities? How do you explain his poor leadership behavior? If you were Marshall’s manager, how might you increase Marshall’s awareness of the negative impact he is having on his team? How would you guide him toward better team leadership, sharing his knowledge with others, and mentoring his team members?
Explanation:
This is a complex issue that may reflect on the organizational culture of that company. As a leader, it is necessary to understand the situation and listen to both parties in order to find a favorable solution for the company and the employees. Since Marshall's work is important to the company, firing him at first may not be a favorable decision, what the leader can do is provide feedback to him about his interpersonal relationship at the company.
As an effective leader, it is necessary to constantly monitor the work and the relationship between employees, in which case it is necessary to understand the reason for Marshall's behavior and try to change the parameters and procedures that may be facilitating this behavior. It is necessary for him to understand that despite being an effective worker, the company is an integrated system that must be in perfect synchronicity for it to be successful in the market.
What the leader could do in this case then is to try to change the code of organizational ethics, seek training and psychological assistance for Marshall if necessary, talk to the workers who are part of the conflict to understand the situation in the best way, to seek a work redesign. , etc.

Smashed Pumpkins Co. paid $160 in dividends and $589 in interest over the past year. The company increased retained earnings by $492 and had accounts payable of $630. Sales for the year were $16,370 and depreciation was $732. The tax rate was 40 percent. What was the company's EBIT
Answer: $1675.67
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the company's EBIT would be calculated as:
Earnings After Tax will be:
= Retained Earnings + Dividends
= 492 + 160
= 652
Earnings Before Tax will be:
= EAT / (1 - tax rate)
= 652 / (1 - 40%)
= 652 / (1 - 0.40)
= 652/0.60
= 1086.67
EBIT would then be calculated as:
= EBT + Interest
= 1086.67 + 589
= 1675.67
6. You have just sold your house for $1,000,000 in cash. Your mortgage was originally a 30-year mortgage with monthly payments and an initial balance of $800,000. The mortgage is currently exactly 181/2 years old, and you have just made a payment. If the interest rate on the mortgage is 5.25% (APR), how much cash will you have from the sale once you pay off the mortgage? (Answer: $543,069)
Answer:
$543,069
Explanation:
The starting point of this analysis is to determine the monthly payment under the mortgage using excel pmt function as shown below:
=pmt(rate,nper,-pv,fv)
rate=monthly interest rate=5.25% /12
nper=number of monthly payments in 30 years=30*12=360 months
pv=mortgage amount=-800000
fv=0(the balance after all month payments is zero)
=pmt(5.25% /12,360,-800000,0)=$4,417.63
Number of month payments already made=18.5*12=222
Number of monthly payments outstanding=360-222=138
The balance of the mortgage now is the present of remaining mortgage payments
=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)
rate=5.25% /12
nper=138
pmt=4417.63
fv=0
=-pv(5.25% /12,138,4417.63,0)
pv=$456,931
Cash balance=cash proceeds from sale of house-outstanding mortgage balance
Cash balance=$1,000,000-$456,931=$543,069
