Answer: $11,200

Explanation:

Using the accounting equation:

(Total Assets) = (Total Liabilities) + (Total Capital)

So,

(Total Liabilities) = (Total Assets) - (Total Capital)    (1)

Based on equation (1), in order to compute for the total liability, we need to compute the total assets and total capital.

At the end of the first year, the following are the assets Shapiro's consulting services (together with the amount):

Cash:                              $16,000
Office Supplies:                $3,200
Equipment:                     $24,000
Accounts Receivable:       $8,000
TOTAL ASSETS            $51,200

Note that the total assets is obtained by adding the amount (or value) of the all the assets listed above.

Since the net income is an increase (or decrease if it's a net loss) of capital, we classify net income as capital. In particular, the net income of Shairo's at the end of first year adds to the capital at the start of first year. 

Moreover, the withdrawal of money by the owner also decreases the capital.  

Thus, the total capital at the end of first year is calculated as follows:

Capital (start of the year):            $15,000
Net Income (end of year):           $27,000   
Withdrawal Amount:                    ($2,000)
TOTAL CAPITAL:                       $40,000

Note: ($2,000) means -$2,000. This notation is used in accounting.

Hence using equation (1), the total liabilities at the end of first year is given by

(Total Liabilities) = (Total Assets) - (Total Capital)
                           = $51,200 - $40,000
Total Liabilities = $11,200

Simora [160]

Answer: $40

Explanation:

First find the required return using CAPM;

Required return = Riskfree rate + beta * (Market return - riskfree rate)

= 6% + 0.5 * (13% - 6%)

= 9.5%

Then use DDM to determine intrinsic value;

= Next dividend / (Required return - growth rate)

= 5 / (9.5% - (-3%))

= $40

A hot dog vendor sells an average of 50 hot dogs during a Little League baseball game. If the sales are Normally distributed wit
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

74.64%

Explanation:

Average sales (μ) = 50 hot dogs

Standard deviation (σ) = 7 hot dogs

In a normal distribution, the z-score for any given number of hot dogs sold, X, is determined by:

z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

For X = 45 hot dogs:

z=\frac{45-50}{7}\\ z= -0.7143

For X = 65 hot dogs:

z=\frac{65-50}{7}\\ z= 2.1429

A z-score of -0.7143 falls in the 23.75th percentile of a normal distribution while a z-score of 2.1429 falls in the 98.39th percentile.

Therefore, the probability that he vendor will sell between 45 and 65 hot dogs is:

P(45 \leq X \leq 65) = 98.39-23.75\\P(45 \leq X \leq 65) = 74.64\%
