Kate fell asleep with a candle lit by her bed. She was sleeping on a mattress manufactured by the United Mattress Co. The candle fell from her nightstand and dropped onto the mattress where she slept. The mattress caught fire and Kate was severely burned. The mattress was a cheap no-frills model. It had been treated with some chemical additives to make it partially flame-resistant, but only to the extent of slowing the speed at which the fabric caught fire. It is possible to make mattresses fully flame-proof, but the process is an expensive one, so expensive that it would have taken the price of this mattress out of the "budget" range. The mattress bore a label indicating "flame resistant." During a discussion with the sales manager Kate asked about whether it was safe, and indicated she sometimes kept a candle by the bed. The sales manager said it was "the best mattress on the market." Kate wants to file a lawsuit against United Mattress Co. Can Kate sue based on negligence? Can Kate sue based on breach of warranty?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Kate cannot sue United based on negligence, which is the duty of care.  United was not negligent and owed no duty of care in this instance to Kate.

2. Kate can rather sue based on a breach of warranty.  There was a warranty (a written specific guarantee) on the mattress label, which indicated that it was "flame resistant."

Explanation:

A warranty, in this case, involves the written statement or claim by United Mattress Co. that the mattress was "flame resistant."  United could have limited its liability for breach of a warranty by indicating clearly that the mattress could only slow the flaming process instead of just resisting flame.  By making the onerous claim that the mattress was "flame resistant," United was exposing itself to liability claims by Kate, who was clearly negligent in putting a candle near her mattress while sleeping.

Oriole Company purchased for $8,767,800 a mine that is estimated to have 48,710,000 tons of ore and no salvage value. In the first year, 2,830,000 tons of ore are extracted. (a1) Calculate depletion cost per unit. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 0.50.) Depletion cost per unit $enter the depletion cost per ton amount in dollars per ton

Answers

Answer:

the depletion cost per unit is $0.18 per ton

Explanation:

The computation of the depletion cost per unit is shown below;

We know that

Depletion cost per ton is

= (Total cost - salvage value) ÷ total estimated units

= ($8,767,800 - $0) ÷ 48,710,000

= $0.18 per ton

Hence, the depletion cost per unit is $0.18 per ton

we simply applied the above formula so that the depletion cost per ton could come

Answers

Answer:

Overpriced

Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

As we know that

Expected rate of return = risk free rate + beta × ( expected market rate of return - risk free rate )

= 0.04 + 1.3 × (0.115 - 0.04)

= 0.1375

As the return of the security is 0.1375  i.e.  more than the expected rate of return i.e. 0.115

Suppose there are only two firms that sell smartphones: Flashfone and Pictech. The payoff matrix that follows shows the profit (in millions of dollars) each company will earn, depending on whether it sets a high or low price for its phones. For example, the lower-left cell shows that if Flashfone prices low and Pictech prices high, Flashfone will earn a profit of $10 million and Pictech will earn a profit of $3 million. (Hint: Assume this is a simultaneous game and that Flashfone and Pictech are both profit-maximizing firms.)

A company projects an increase in net income of $135,000 each year for the next five years if it invests $900,000 in new equipment. The equipment has a five-year life and an estimated salvage value of $300,000. What is the annual rate of return on this investment

Answers

Answer:

the annual rate of return is 22.50%

Explanation:

The computation of the annual rate of return is shown below:

Average investment is

= ($900,000 + $300,000) ÷ 2

= $600,000

Now

Annual rate of return is

= Annual net income ÷ Average investment

= $135,000 ÷ $600,000

= 22.50%

hence, the annual rate of return is 22.50%

If 32,842 units of the part are normally purchased during the year but could be manufactured using unused capacity, what would be the amount of differential cost increase or decrease from making the part rather than purchasing it

Answers

Answer:

$164,210 decrease

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what would be the amount of differential cost increase or decrease from making the part rather than purchasing it

Differential cost increase or decrease=(32,842 * 16)- (32,842 * 11)=

Differential cost increase or decrease=$525,472-$361,262

Differential cost increase or decrease=$164,210 decrease

Therefore what would be the amount of differential cost increase or decrease from making the part rather than purchasing it is $164,210 decrease

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is "43.875". A further explanation is provided below.

Harvey Dent wants to sell the $43,000 TriForcebonds he purchased 3 years ago at par value. The bonds have a 2.80% coupon, 9 years to maturity, and are trading at a 2.45% yield to maturity. If Harvey sells the bonds today, his proceeds from the sale would result in:

Answers

Answer: $1203

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, the proceeds gotten from the sales if Harvey sells the bonds today will be:

Formula for bond price = Present value (Rate, Period, -Coupon amount, -Par value)

= PV(2.45%, 9, -43000 × 2.8%, -43000)

= 44203

Therefore, the proceeds will be the difference between the selling price and the purchase price which will be:

= $44203 - $43000

= $1203

The total value of the bond, or the amount you'll earn if you sell it, is the sum of the face value and the bond's added interest value. The coupon for each bond specifies the interest rate.

The answer, $1203 is the proceeds from the sale would result in.  

If Harvey sells the bonds today, based on the evidence presented in the question, the revenues will be:

The formula for bond price = Present value (Rate, Period, -Coupon amount, -Par value)

[tex]= PV(2.45, 9, - 43000 \text{ x } 0.028, - 43000)\\= 44203[/tex]

As a result, the revenues will be equal to the difference between the selling and buying prices, which will be:

[tex]= 44203 - 43000= $1203[/tex]

Assume that Saudi Arabia has production possibilities to produce either 100 barrels of oil using 100 worker hours or 25 bushels of corn using 100 worker hours. If it decides to produce 60 barrels of oil, how many bushels of corn can it produce

Answers

Answer: 10 bushels

Explanation:

If they produce 100 barrels of oil using 100 worker hours, it means that the number of work hours taken for 1 barrel is:

= 100 / 100

= 1 work hour

For bushels however, 1 worker hour produces:

= 25 / 100

= 0.25 bushels of corn

If 60 barrels of oil are produced, it means 60 worker hours were used which would leave 40 worker hours.

Bushels of corn produced is therefore:

= 40 * 0.25

= 10 bushels

Castille Corp. purchases, for $600,000, land upon which a building and a dilapidated shed are situated. Castille plans to use the building as-is for operations but immediately razes the shed at a cost of $5,000 minus scrap recovery of $1,000. A recent tax appraisal of the property allocated $100,000 to the land and $400,000 to the building. In the entry to record the acquisition of the property, at what amount will Castille debit Land

Answers

Answer:

$120,800

Explanation:

Give that;

Cost of land = $600,000

Associated expenses :

Razing down the shed = $5,000

Income from scrap = $1,000

Total expenses = $4,000

The total cost of the land would be;

Total cost of land = Cost of land + Total expense

= $600,000 + $4,000

= $604,000

Tax allocation: land and building = $500,000

Land allocation will now be

= 100,000/500,000 × $604,000

= 0.2 × $604,000

= $120,800

Calculation for 2019 Temporary differences

2019

Using this formula

2019 Temporary differences = 2019 Depreciation- 2019 depreciation expense

Let plug in the formula

2019 Temporary differences =$32,000 - $24,000

2019 Temporary differences= $8,000

Calculation for 2020 Temporary differences

Using this formula

2020 Temporary differences=(2019 Depreciation+2020 Depreciation)-( 2019 Depreciation expense+2020 Depreciation expense)

Let plug in the formula

2020 Temporary differences= ($32,000 + $37,000) - ($24,000 + $26,000)

2020 Temporary differences=$69,000-$50,000

2020 Temporary differences= $19,000

Therefore the temporary difference between the book value of depreciable assets and the tax basis of these assets at the end of 2019 and 2020 will be $8,000 and $19,000

MAD Inc. has a capital structure consisting of 40 percent debt and 60 percent common equity financing. The company has $400 million in net income and plans to pay out 25 percent of their earnings as dividends. What is the maximum amount of new financing that the company can raise without selling new common stock

Answers

Answer:

$500 million

Explanation:

Retained earnings = Income * (1 - Dividend payout percentage)

Retained earnings = $400 million * (1-0.25)

Retained earnings = $400 million * 0.75

Retained earnings = $300 million

Amount that can be raise without selling new stock: Retained earnings / % of equity financing in total capital

= $300 million / 60%

= $300 million / 0.60

= $500 million

In the current year, she sold her interest in Activity D for a $10,000 gain. Activity D, which had been profitable until last year, had a current loss of $1,500. Answer the following questions to determine how the sale of Activity D affects Sarah's taxable income in the current year. a. The amount of suspended losses carried forward to the year of the sale is $fill in the blank 1 20,000 . b. What amount of the suspended losses is allocated to Activity D

Answers

Answer:

      a. -$20,000

      b. -$2,000

Explanation:

a. The amount of suspended losses carried forward to the year:

= 30,000 + (-30,000) + (-15,000) + (-5,000)

= -$20,000

b. Suspended losses allocated to Activity D:

First find the total amount of losses:

= -30,000 - 15,000 - 5,000

= -$50,000

Activity B accounted for -$5,000 of this loss.

Suspended losses to be allocated to D would therefore be:

= -5,000 / - 50,000 * -20,000

= -$2,000

Consider a trader who takes a long position in a six-month forward contract on the euro. The forward rate is $1.75 = €1.00; the contract size is €62,500. At the maturity of the contract the spot exchange rate is $1.65 = €1.00. A. The trader has lost $625. B. The trader has lost $6,250 C. The trader has made $6,250 D. The trader has lost $66,287.88

Answers

Answer:

B. The trader has lost $6,250

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the amount the trader has loss

You will buy at $1.75 and spend= (1.75 × 62,500) You will buy at $1.75 and spend= $109,375

Second step

But you could buy and spend= (1.65 × 62,500)

But you could buy and spend= $103.125

Now let calculate the amount the trader has loss

Loss=$103,125 - $109,375

Loss = -$6,250

Therefore The trader has lost $6,250
