Answer:

Wilson's compensation expense in 2018 for these stock options was $258.50 millions

Explanation:

Compensation Expense in 2018 Stock Option =Estimated value of Option at Jan 1, 2013 = 26 Million X $47 = $1222 Million

Estimated value of Option at Jan 1, 2018=22 Million X $47

Estimated value of Option at Jan 1, 2018=$1,034 million

Options vest on January 1, 2022, therefore, Fair value is spread over 4 Years of vesting period= $1,034 million/4

Fair value is spread over 4 Years of vesting period=$258.50 millions

Wilson's compensation expense in 2018 for these stock options was $258.50 millions

December 31, 2021 = $60 million

December 31, 2022 = $40 million

December 31, 2023 = $20 million

December 31, 2024 = $0

b. The balance to be reported in the deferred tax liability account are as follows.

December 31, 2021 = $15 million

December 31, 2022 = $10 million

December 31, 2023 = $5 million

December 31, 2024 = $0

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of cumulative temporary book-tax difference for the depreciable asset and the balance to be reported in the deferred tax liability account for December 31 of years 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 in bold red color.

Suppose there are only two firms that sell Blu-ray players, Movietonia and Videotech. The following payoff Matrix shows the prof
Karolina [17]

Answer:

From the given Matrix we can see that if videotech is selecting a high price, movietonia has a higher profit when it is charging a low price and this profit is 18. Similarly when videotech is selecting a lower price movietonia again has a higher profit when it is selecting a lower price which is 10. This indicates that movie tonia has a dominant strategy of selecting a low price.

If movietonia is selecting a high price videotech has a a higher pay off of 18 when it is selecting a low price. In case movietonia is selecting a low price videotech again has a higher profit when it is selecting a low price and this profi is 10.

Therefore videotech and movietonia both have dominant strategy of selecting a low price and this implies that low price, low price will be the Nash equilibrium.

In case the two firms are not colluding, both of them will choose a low price.

This is definitely an example of business dilemma game. The statement is true.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? The time to maturity does not affect the change in the value of a bond in response
Julli [10]

Answer:

You hold two bonds. One is a 10-year, zero coupon, issue and the other is a 10-year bond that pays a 6% yearly coupon. A similar market rate, 6%, applies to the two securities. In the event that the market rate increases from the present level, the zero coupon security will encounter the bigger rate decay. In this manner, the shorter the opportunity to development, the more prominent the adjustment in the estimation of a security because of a given change in financing costs.
