<span>Setting a rent control price ceiling will cause the same impact as any other price ceiling that is below the market equilibrium price: it will create a shortage in the market. At the price equilibrium of $600, the number of renters would exactly meet the number of available 2 bedroom apartments. However, with this fixed price ceiling, the position along the demand curve will shift to one of higher demand, with no analogous change in the supply curve. Thus there will be more renters than can be supported, and renters will have to look for alternatives and substitutes.</span>

A company’s stock is currently selling for 28.50. Its next dividend, payable one year from now, is expected to be 0.50 per share
melisa1 [442]

Answer: $22.22

Explanation:

We can use the dividend discount model to solve for this.

The formula is,

P = D1 / r - g

Where,

D1 = the next dividend

r = the expected return

g = the growth rate.

We do not have the expected return but we can calculate for it using the old stock price and growth rate. Making it x we have,

28.5 = 0.5 / x - 0.075

28.5 (x - 0.075) = 0.5

x = 0.5 / 28.5 + 0.075

x = 0.09254385964

x = 9.25 %

Now that we have the expected return we can calculate the new stock price with the new growth rate,

P = 0.5 / 9.25% - 7%

P = 22.2222222222

P = $22.22

The new stock price is $22.22

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

1. $77,200 Cost of goods available for sale & 1,800 units available for sale

2. 400 units in ending inventory

3. FIFO $18,400, LIFO $18,000, WEIGHTED AVERAGE $17,760 and SPECIFIC $18,200

4. FIFO $46,200, LIFO $45,800, WEIGHTED AVERAGE $45,560 and SPECIFIC $46,000

Explanation:

1. Cost of goods available for sale is computed as follows:

1-Jan  600   45   27,000

10-Feb  400   42   16,800

13-Mar  200   27   5,400

<u>5-Sep  500   46   23,000 </u>

     1,800    77,200

2.Units ending inventory is computed by deducting available units for sale 1,800 by the units sold 1,400 equals 400 units.

3. Ending inventory is computed as follows:

            FIFO  

5-Sep  400 x $46 = $18,400.00

                    LIFO  

Jan 1        400 x $45 = $18,000.00

           SPECIFIC

On June 30, 2021, Georgia-Atlantic, Inc. leased a warehouse equipment from IC Leasing Corporation. The lease agreement calls for
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

1. $3,799,988

2. $3,419,989

Explanation:

1. Semiannual lease payment = $468,683

Total semiannual payments = 5*2 = 10

Incremental borrowing rate = 10%, 5% semiannual

Present value of minimum lease payments used to record right to use assets = Semi Annual lease payments * Cumulative PV Factor of annuity due for 10 periods at 5%

= $468,683 * 8.1078 = $3,799,988.0274 ≈ $3,799,988

2. Semiannual payment on 30.06.2021 = $468,683

Pretax amount of liability on 30.06.2021 = ($ 3,799,988.0274 - $468,683) = $3,331,305.0274

Interest expense for 31.12.2021 = $3,331,305.0274 * 5% = $166,565.25137

Semiannual lease payment on 31.12.2021 = $468,683

Pre tax amount for liability December 31, 2021 = $3,331,305.0274 + $166,565.25137 - $468,683 = $3,029,187.2788

Depreciation on right to use assets for 2021 = ($3,799,988.0274 ÷ 5) * (5/10)= $379,998.80274

Pre tax amount of right to use asset to be reported for 2021 = $3,799,988.0274 - $379,998.80274 = $3,419,989.2247 ≈ $3,419,989
