Answer:

Record the loss contingency in the December 31, Year 1, balance sheet and also disclose the lawsuit in the footnotes.

Explanation:

Since the loss is both probable and material, then it must be recorded as a liability in the balance sheet. This is a loss contingency, and depending on whether the probability of occurrence is probable, possible or not possible, and the amount can be determined, then it will be recorded in the balance sheet, included in the footnotes or not considered.

Since the loss is probable and it can be quantified, plus the incident occurred during last year, then the loss contingency must be included as a liability. The company should also disclose the lawsuit in the footnotes.

mote1985 [20]
The correct answer is - the number of hours he works at each job.
If we have the number of hours he works for each job separately, then we will be able to take out a percentage of the earnings from both of the jobs separately. We will than get the sum of the percentages if both of them, and have the real amount of George's weekly savings.

A company with $70,000 in current assets and $50,000 in current liabilities pays a $1,000 current liability. As a result of this
Viktor [21]

The question is missing the options and is incomplete. The q=complete question is,

A company with $70,000 in current assets and $50,000 in current liabilities pays a $1,000 current liability. As a result of this transaction, the current ratio and working capital will:

a. both decrease

b. both increase

c. remain the same and decrease, respectively

d. increase and remain the same, respectively

Answer:

The correct answer is option D as the current ratio has increased while the working capital has remained the same.

Explanation:

The current ratio is calculated by dividing the current assets by the current liabilities. The formula for current ratio is,

Current ratio = Current assets / current liabilities

The old current ratio was,

Current ratio = 70000 / 50000 = 1.4

After the transaction, the new current ratio is,

Current ratio = (70000 - 1000) / (50000 - 1000)  =  1.408

Thus, as a result of the transaction, the current ratio has increased.

The working capital is the difference between the value of current assets and the value of current liabilities.

The formula to calculate the working capital is,

Working capital = Current assets - Current liabilities

Old working capital = 70000 - 50000 = $20000

The new working capital = 69000 - 49000 = $20000

Thus, the working capital remain unchanged after the transaction.

Pelicans Ice is a snow cone stand near the local park. To plan for the? future, Pelicans Ice wants to determine its cost behavio
ra1l [238]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Month Number of snow cones Total operating costs

January 6,400 $5,980

February 7,000 $6,400

March 5,000 $5,000

April 6,900 $6,330

May 9,000  $7,000

June 7,250 $6,575

To calculate the fixed costs using the high-low method, first, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost:

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (7,000 - 5,000) / (9,000 - 5,000)= $0.5 per unit

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= 7,000 - (0.5*9,000)= 2,500

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Fixed costs= 5,000 - (0.5*5,000)= 2,500

Huxley Building Supplies' last free cash flow was $1.75 million. Its free cash flow growth rate is expected to be constant at 25
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Ans. The best estimate of the current intrinsic stock price is $36.51

Explanation:

Hi, first, we have to determine the cash flows for year 1 and 2 (when the stock grows at 25%) and then, the terminal value (using the constant growth rate of 6%). Then we have to bring to present value all the cash flows (terminal value included) and since the terminal value is an amount of money expressed in dollars of year 2, we have to bring it to present value, discounted at the WACC.

Normally, we need to use the rate of return of the equity but in this case this is not possible due to the lack of information. What we can do is to find the value of the company´s equity, which means that If we bring to present value tha cash flows of year 1 and 2 and the terminal value (using thte WACC as a discount rate) and add the short term invesments and substract the debt of the company, we can find the equity´s value and divide it by the outstanding shares, therefore obtaining a good aproximation to the intrinsic value of the stock. It all goes like this.

Note. Notice that 1.75 millions were the last cash flow so we need to find the cash flow for year 1 (CF1)

(PV)CF1=\frac{1.75(1+0.25)}{(1+0.12)^{1} } =1.9531

(PV)CF2=\frac{1.75(1+0.25)^{2} }{(1+0.12)^{2} } =1.9463

(P.V)Terminal Value=\frac{1.75(1+0.25)^{2}(1+0.06) }{(0.12-0.06)} *(\frac{1}{(1+0.12)^{2} } )=38.51

Where (PV) means present value.

Now, let´s do the following operation

EquityValue=(PV)allCashFlows+ShortTermInvest-Debt

EquityValue=(1.9531+1.9463+38.51)+5-7=36.51

Then, the equity´s value is $36.51 millions.

Now, the intrinsic value of the stock is the value of its equity divided by the number of outstanding shares.

Intrinsic ValueStock=\frac{36.51}{1} =36.51

So, the intrinsic value of Huxley Building Supplies' is $36.51

Best of luck.

suter [353]

Answer:

Ethics

Explanation:

Ethics also called moral philosophy involves how an individual systemises, defends and recommends the concept of right or wrong.

Summer is facing an ethical decision of either returning the bag or keeping it for herself. Her decision will be based on her definition of right or wrong.

If her moral philosophy is one that does not see theft as something that is wrong, she will decide to keep the bag. If on the other hand she sees keeping the bag that is not her own as wrong she will decide to return it.
