SCENARIO:Marcus, feeling stressed out from work, decided to search for a meditation app for his phone that would help him relax during the day. One app, CalmDown, appeared to be promising. It didn't have any reviews yet and looked to be a brand-new app, so he decided to try it out. He downloaded the app to his phone and opened it up. The first screen required he enter in his name and email address. At the very bottom of the screen it had some small writing, but Marcus didn't notice it and hit the continue button.
Had Marcus clicked on the link at the bottom of the screen, he would have seen the following:
The second screen stated "Three-day trial version- Free! $59.99 annual fee thereafter." Marcus was annoyed that the app would cost him almost $60 but figured he would set a reminder on his phone to cancel the app before the trial period expired so he wouldn't get charged. Plus, he wanted to see the app in action. If it was actually worth the price, he wouldn't mind paying the annual fee. He clicked "Continue" and put in his bank card information on the next screen. The following screen asked Marcus a series of questions about his stress level and what he felt caused stress in his life. He clicked "high" and "work" as the level and cause. He then completed the first CalmDown meditation in the app, but was not impressed with its functionality. Deciding he would cancel his subscription immediately, he went into the profile settings to try to find the cancel option but couldn't. He searched every possible place on the app but didn't see a way to cancel the subscription. Marcus decided to try to find the app's developer through their website, but a quick search didn't turn up anything. Already stressed and becoming more frustrated, Marcus decided to contact the app store. They informed him that he should be able to go into his app store account and cancel the subscription there. However, when Marcus went there, he didn't see the app as an option or as a subscription. Thinking that maybe his subscription didn't process, he just deleted the app from his phone.
Marcus didn't give the app or the subscription any more thought, becoming increasingly more distracted by the amount of stress at work. Four months later, Marcus was looking at his bank account online and noticed it was lower than it should have been. He began reviewing the charges and noticed multiple charges for $59.99 to a merchant named "CDgotU." He immediately remembered the app and contacted his bank to dispute the charges. His bank replied that due to the charges being debit withdraws he needed to dispute them within 2 days of being made. Moreover, if he had been diligent about watching his account, they could have put a block on the account and the remaining fraudulent charges would have been prevented. The bank representative also told him that he should try to get a refund from the company that charged him. After making his case with the bank representative for several hours about how he tried to cancel his subscription, he was unsuccessful. The bank's representative was able to provide Marcus a phone number attached to the Merchant account, but when Marcus called the number it was disconnected. The bank could not provide him with any additional information such as a company address or website.
After more internet searching, Marcus saw a number of other complaints online about the app, and noticed it had been removed from the app store and was no longer available for download. Marcus decided to bring an action against the company for fraud, breach of contract, conversion, and several other claims in his home state of Vermont.

Can Marcus compel the bank or the app store to provide additional information about the creator of CalmDown in order to determine the creator's location and potential assets?
a. No, these records are not subject to being subpoenaed due to their confidential nature.
b. Yes, he can subpoena records during the discovery process from both, but the bank and the app store may ask the judge to deny the request or limit the request due to privacy concerns.
c. Yes, but he must subpoena these records prior to the filing of the complaint.
d. Yes, he can file interrogatories during the discovery process to both the bank and the app store.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: b. Yes, he can subpoena records during the discovery process from both, but the bank and the app store may ask the judge to deny the request or limit the request due to privacy concerns.

Explanation:

Marcus can indeed compel the bank or the app store to provide additional information about the creator of the app should he wish to find out the creator's location and its potential assets so he can purse the case appropriately legal wise.

He can do this by subpoenaing the required information when laying the background for the suit. As this information is considered private and confidential however, both the bank and the store could appeal to the Judge to refuse Marcus's request on the grounds of privacy concerns.

Which of the following ratios indicate strong capacity for a company? Select ALL correct answers.Low profit margin ratio
Low asset turnover ratio
Low operating margin ratio
Low debt to equity ratio
High debt service coverage ratio

Answers

The ratios that indicate a strong capacity for a company are Low debt to equity ratio and High debt service coverage ratio.

Debt service coverage ratio is an example of a coverage ratio. It measures the solvency of a firm. A high ratio indicates greater solvency when compared with a low ratio.

Debt to equity ratio is an example of a debt ratio. A high debt to equity ratio indicates higher financial risk and weaker solvency. Thus, a lower ratio is more desirable.

Prescott expects to produce 225,000 basic models and 225,000 professional models. Compute the predetermined overhead allocation rates using activity-based costing. How much overhead is allocated to the basic model? To the professional model?Estimated overhead cost / Estimated qty of the allocation base= Predetermined OH Basic Model Professional ModelManufacturing overhead assembly 264800 195200Manufacturing overhead packaging 55200 227700Total manufacturing overhead cost 320000 422900

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The Calculation of Predetermined OH Rate is shown below:

For Materials Handling, it is

= Estimated Overhead Costs ÷ Estimated allocated base Quantity  

= $54,000 ÷ 96

= $562.50 per part

For Machine Setup, it is

= Estimated Overhead Costs ÷ Estimated allocated base Quantity

= $204,000 ÷ 60

= $3,400 per setup

For Insertion of Parts, it is

= Estimated Overhead Costs ÷ Estimated allocated base Quantity  

= $486,000 ÷ 96

= $5,062.50 per part

Now  

Calculation of allocated OH is

For Basic Model:

Allocated OH is

= $562.50 × 32 + $3,400 × 20 + $5,062.50 × 32

= $248,000

For Professional Model:

Allocated OH is

= $562.50 × 64 + $3,400 × 40 + $5,062.50 × 64

= $496,000

An investment offers $5,900 per year for 15 years, with the first payment occurring one year from now. If the required return is 6 percent, what is the value of the investment? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))

Answers

Answer:

Today, the investment is worth $31,997.29

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

An investment offers $5,900 per year for 15 years, with the first payment occurring one year from now. The required return is 6 percent

First, we need to calculate the final value, using the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual pay= 5,900

n= 15

i= 0.06

FV= {5,900*[(1.06^15)-1]} / 0.06= $137,328.22

Now, we can determine the present value:

PV= FV/ (1+i)^n

PV= 137,328.22/ 1.06^25= $31,997.29
