The Jones Company has just completed the third year of a​ five-year MACRS recovery period for a piece of equipment it originally purchased for

$ 296 comma 000$296,000.

a. What is the book value of the​ equipment?

b. If Jones sells the equipment today for

$ 182 comma 000$182,000

and its tax rate is

35 %35%​,

what is the​ after-tax cash flow from selling​ it?

College Supply Company (CSC) makes three types of drinking glasses: short, medium, and tall. It presently applies overhead using a predetermined rate based on direct labor-hours. A group of company employees recommended that CSC switch to activity-based costing and identified the following activities, cost drivers, estimated costs, and estimated cost driver units for Year 5 for each activity center.

In addition, management estimated 2,000 direct labor-hours for year 5.

Assume that the following cost driver volumes occurred in February, year 5:

Direct labor costs were $20 per hour.

Required:

a. Compute a predetermined overhead rate for year 5 for each cost driver recommended by the employees. Also compute a predetermined rate using direct labor-hours as the allocation base. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

b. Compute the production costs for each product for February using direct labor-hours as the allocation base and the predetermined rate computed in requirement a. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)

c. Compute the production costs for each product for February using the cost drivers recommended by the employees and the predetermined rates computed in requirement a.(Note: Do not assume that total overhead applied to products in February will be the same for activity-based costing as it was for the labor-hour-based allocation.) (Do not round intermediate calculations.)

Explain the admission data in terms of the pathophysiology of her condition.

The client remains home for three weeks. She is readmitted again after a severe GI bleed secondary to her ulcerative colitis. Since her trip to Jamaica, she has lost over 30 lbs. due to loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Due to her ulcerative colitis, she has uncontrollable bowel movements, both with and without rectal bleeding. She often chooses not to eat because she states, “it just runs right through me so why bother?”

USING EXCEL

I need assistance on this problem in Pseudocode and in C++ Program

Program 3: Give a baby $5,000! Did you know that, over the last century, the stock market has returned an average of 10%? You may not care, but you’d better pay attention to this one. If you were to give a newborn baby $5000, put that money in the stock market and NOT add any additional money per year, that money would grow to over $2.9 million by the time that baby is ready for retirement (67 years)! Don’t believe us? Check out the compound interest calculator from MoneyChimp and plug in the numbers!

To keep things simple, we’ll calculate interest in a simple way. You take the original amount (called the principle) and add back in a percentage rate of growth (called the interest rate) at the end of the year. For example, if we had $1,000 as our principle and had a 10% rate of growth, the next year we would have $1,100. The year after that, we would have $1,210 (or $1,100 plus 10% of $1,100). However, we usually add in additional money each year which, for simplicity, is included before calculating the interest.

Your task is to design (pseudocode) and implement (source) for a program that 1) reads in the principle, additional annual money, years to grow, and interest rate from the user, and 2) print out how much money they have each year. Task 3: think about when you earn the most money!

Lesson learned: whether it’s your code or your money, save early and save often…

Sample run 1:

Enter the principle: 2000

Enter the annual addition: 300

Enter the number of years to grow: 10

This assignment is about Repetition Structures.

For Pseudocode, here are key words to use

: · DO … WHILE – A loop that will always run at least once ·

FOR … ENDFOR – A loop that runs until certain criteria is met ·

WHILE … ENDWHILE – A loop that runs only while certain criteria is met ·

FOREACH … ENDFOREACH – A loop that runs over elements in a data structure · BREAK - "break out" of the current loop (or other structure) you're in and start immediately after the loop · CONTINUE - skip over the current iteration of the loop and move on to the next one

Use the following information to evaluate whether or not you should buy stock A.

                           Stock A                                                                      S&P 500

              Probability                       Return                              Probability         Return

                  0.1                                   -100%                                 0.3                      -30%

                  0.2                                    -10%                                  0.4 15%

                  0.6                                    18%                                  0.3 40%

                  0.1                                   130%

The current yield on the 10-year Treasury Note (risk-free rate) is 3.3%. The correlation between Stock A and the market is 0.53.

Hint One – Remember that the S&P 500 represents the market and that you can use the two probability distributions above to get the expected return and standard deviation for both Stock A and for the market (round calculations to 2 decimal places in percentage terms).

Hint Two – You will use the SML to get the required return and you will need to calculate beta from the data provided (round beta to two decimal places).
