Polly Khan is trying to calculate the current market rate given the following information: Investor’s have been requiring a 12% annual return on Builtrite’s stock which has a beta of 2.0 and the current risk-free rate is 4%. What is the current market rate?

Answers

Answer:

The current market rate is 8%

Explanation:

The market rate is the return on market or the market portfolio. To calculate the market rate (rM) we will use the CAPM equation which is used to calculate the required rate of return on a stock or portfolio. The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,

r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)

Where,

rRF is the risk free raterM is the market rate

We already know the value of r, rRF and Beta. We will input these values in the above equation to calculate the market rate.

0.12 = 0.04 + 2 * (rM - 0.04)

0.12 - 0.04 = 2 * rM - 0.08

0.08 + 0.08 = 2 * rM

0.16 / 2 = rM

rM = 0.08 or 8%

The stock ABC has a beta of 1.6 and its standard deviation is 30%. Its correlation coefficient with the market return is 0.8. What is the standard deviation of the market return? A. None of the answers is correct B. 18% C. 20% D. 15%

Answers

Answer: D. 15%

Explanation:

Beta is given as 1.6 but is calculable by the formula;

Beta = Correlation Coefficient of stock with market returns * [tex]\frac{Standard Deviation of stock returns}{Standard Deviation of market returns}[/tex]

1.6 = 0.8 * 30%/Sdm

30% /Sdm = 1.6/0.8

30% / Sdm = 2

Sdm * 2 =30%

Sdm = 30%/2

Sdm = 15%

. How much would you have to deposit today if you wanted to have $66,000 in four years? Annual interest rate is 9%. (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided. Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.) b. Assume that you are saving up for a trip around the world when you graduate in two years. If you can earn 8% on your investments, how much would you have to deposit today to have $18,500 when you graduate? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) c-1. Calculate the future value of an investment of $787 for ten years earning an interest of 9%. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

a. To have $66,000 in four years with an annual interest rate of 9%, the present value is:

PV = $66,000 x discount factor

= $66,000 x (1.09)^4

= $66,000 x 0.708

= $46,728

b. To have $18,500 in two years with an interest rate of 8% yearly, the present value is:

PV = $18,500 x discount factor

= $18,500 x (1.08)^2

= $18,500 x 0.857

= $15,854.50

c. The future value of an investment of $787 for ten years earning an interest of 9% is:

FV = $787 x FV factor

= $787 x (1.09)^10

= $787 x 2.367

= $1,862.83

Explanation:

The present values for options A and B are calculated by discounting the future values with their discount factors.  The present values show the amounts that need to be invested today at prevailing interest rates to yield the future values after the indicated periods of time.

The future value for option C is calculated by multiplying the present value of the investment with its future value factor.  These present and future values show that there is a time value of money.  This concept means that money received today is not equal in value to the same amount received some time later.  Based on this difference, interest rates are charged to equate the values of money received today and money received in a year's time.  The interest rates also consider the inflation rate and must always be above the inflation rate in order to retain future value.

Time Warner shares have a market capitalization of billion. The company is expected to pay a dividend of per share and each share trades for . The growth rate in dividends is expected to be ​% per year. ​ Also, Time Warner has billion of debt that trades with a yield to maturity of ​%. If the​ firm's tax rate is ​%, compute the​ WACC?

Answers

Complete Question:

Time Warner shares have a market capitalization of $50 billion. The company is expected to pay a dividend of $0.30 per share and each share trades for $30. The growth rate in dividends is expected to be 7% per year. Also, Time Warner has $15 billion of debt that trades with a yield to maturity of 8%. If the firm's tax rate is 30%, what is the WACC?

Answer:

7.5%

Explanation:

We can calculate WACC using the following formula:

WACC = Ke * MV of Equity / (MV of Equity  + MV of Debt)    +   Kd * MV of Debt / (MV of Equity  + MV of Debt)

Here:

Market Value of Equity is $50 billion

Market Value of Debt is $15 billion

Ke is % (Step 1)

Kd is 8%

By putting values, we have:

WACC =  8.07% * $50 Billion / ($50 Billion + $15 Billion)     +  8% * $50 Billion / ($50 Billion + $15 Billion)

WACC = 7.5%

Step 1: Calculate Ke

We can calculate Ke using the following formula:

Ke = Do * (1 + g) / P               + g

Here

Do is the dividend per share which is $0.3

g is the growth rate which is 7%

And

P is the market value of share which is $30 per share.

Ke = $30 * (1 + 7%) / $30     +  7%   =  8.07%

Answers

Answer:

variable costs per unit = $10.57

variable cost per unit for utilities = $0.85

variable cost per unit for maintenance = $0.25

Explanation:

I believe that the question is incomplete: the missing part is that both utilities and maintenance costs are mixed.

Production in units 3,900

Variable production cost s:

Direct materials $9,675  / 3,900 = $2.4808 per unit

Direct labor $27,420  / 3,900 = $6.9846 per unit

Utilities ($3,702 - $387) / 3,900 = $0.85 per unit

Maintenance ($1,233 - $258) / 3,900 = $0.25 per unit

total variable costs per unit = $10.5654 ≈ $10.57

A. Margin of safety ratio
B. Costs and expenses ratio
C. Profit ratio

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the option A: Margin of safety ratio.

Explanation:

To begin with, the name of "Margin of Safety", in the field of business and accounting, is refered to a ratio whose main purpose is to establish the point in where the company knows that it has to sale obligately due to the fact that at that point the company can be sure that they have covered the fixed costs of it and after that point every sale will became a profit for the company. So that is why that this ratio indicates the percentage of each sales dollar that is available to cover those costs.

3. At an oral auction for a lamp, half of all bidders have a value of $50 and half have a value of $70. What is the expected winning bid if there are four bidders

Answers

Answer: $60

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that At an oral auction for a lamp, half of all bidders have a value of $50 and half have a value of $70.

The expected winning bid if there are four bidders goes thus:

Since there are four bidders, the probability that the winning bid is $50 is 1/2 and for $70, it's 1/2 as well based on the question.

The expected winning bid will now be:

= ($50 × 1/2) + ($70 × 1/2)

= ($50 × 0.5) + ($70 × 0.5)

= $25 + $35

= $60

The risk-free rate is 6% and the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 13%. a. Calculate the required rate of return on a security with a beta of 1.25.

Answers

Answer:

The required rate of return is r = 0.1475 or 14.75%

Explanation:

The required rate of return is the minimum return that investors demand/expect on a stock based on the systematic risk of the stock as given by the beta. The expected or required rate of return on a stock can be calculated using the CAPM equation.

The equation is,

r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)

Where,

rRF is the risk free raterM is the return on market

r = 0.06 + 1.25 * (0.13 - 0.06)

r = 0.1475 or 14.75%

(Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

Current price of stock = $130.76(Approx).

Explanation:

Given:

Dividend paid = $4.25

Required return of return = 10%

Growth rate = 6.75%

Answer:

b. $19,020

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided in the attached pdf file before answering the question. Please, see the attached file for the full question.

Also note that the "1. Option A 2. Option B 3. Option C" are not actually part of the question.

The explanation to the answer is now provided as follows:

Note: This is an example of annuity. An annuity can be described as a series of payments made or income received at equal intervals.

Therefore, the relevant table in the question is the second table, i.e. table for the present value of an annuity of $1 at compound interest.

To calculate the present value (PV), the following for formula is used:

PV = ACI * PVA10% ............................ (1)

PV = Present value = ?

ACI = Annual cash inflows = $6,000

PVA = Present value of annuity of $1 at 10% for 4 years = 3.170

Note that the PVA is obtained for year 4 at 10% from the second table as already explained above.

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

PV = $6,000 * 3.170

PV = $19,020

Therefore, the correct option is option b. $19,020.

c. Is there anything that could have been done to make the communication more effective?

Answers

Explanation:

a. What were some good and/or poor examples of communication?

Intercultural communication in the workplace can generate some significant difficulties, in an intercultural work team, there may be behaviors of certain members that differ from the rest of the group, which can mean lack of integration of the team due to lack of respect and interest to the cultural values ​​of a particular member.

b. Discuss any examples or interpretation of cultural differences as described in Hoftstede's Cultural Values chart on p. 46 of your text (i.e. individualism, time orientation, formality, etc.).

Formality can be interpreted differently according to different cultures. In a more flexible culture like the American one, for example, formality may not be so expressed through the use of formal language and dress, whereas in a less flexible culture, this can be seen as a disrespect, as they can establish a more serious and formal communication in the workplace.

c. Is there anything that could have been done to make the communication more effective?

To make intercultural communication more effective, it is necessary above all to respect the individual values ​​of an individual that exist in certain ways in some situations. The ideal is that people are open to learn and exchange experiences, willing to help the individual to integrate into the group, and above all to act in an ethical and respectful way always.

The bargaining power of suppliers is low when Review Later Few substitute inputs are available Suppliers are large or concentrated There are many alternative suppliers Switching costs are high

Answers

Answer:

There are many alternative suppliers

Explanation:

Bargaining power of suppliers is one of Porters Five Forces. It refers to the extent to which a supplier can exert influence over buyers.

If there are many suppliers and a supplier raises price, consumer can easily change suppliers. But if the cost of changing suppliers is high (Switching costs), consumers would have less incentive to change suppliers. Thus, the bargaining power of suppliers would be high.

If there are few substitutes, there are few alternatives to the product offered by the supplier. so, the bargaining power of the supplier is high because consumers have little alternatives to the suppliers product.

White Lion Homebuilders is considering investing in a one-year project that requires an initial investment of $475,000. To do so, it will have to issue new common stock and will incur a flotation cost of 2.00%. At the end of the year, the project is expected to produce a cash inflow of $595,000. The rate of return that White Lion expects to earn on its project (net of its flotation costs) is:___________.

Answers

Answer:

22.81%

Explanation:

The computation of the rate of return is shown below:

= (cash inflow ÷ total cost) - 1

where,

Cash inflow is $595,000

And, the total cost is

= $475,000 + $475,000 × 2%

= $475,000 + $9,500

= $484,500

So, the rate of return is

= ($595,000 ÷ $484,500) - 1

= 22.81%

Hence, the rate of return is 22.81%

Basically we applied the above formulas

According to the kinked demand curve theory, the behavior of firms in an oligopoly creates a demand curve that is ________ at prices above the cartel price and ________ at prices below the cartel price.

According to the kinked demand curve theory, this behavior creates a demand curve that is more elastic at prices above the cartel price and more inelastic at prices below the cartel price.

Explanation:

Oligopoly is a market structure with a small number of firms, none of which can keep the from from having significant influence in the same specialization they indulge in.

The kinked demand curve theory means that the response to a price increase is less than the response to a price decrease of the Olipolist in the market

Answer:

Guillermo's Oil and Lube Company

Calculating the Direct Labor Rate Variance and the Direct Labor Efficiency Variance

a1. Direct labor rate variance (LRV) = Actual Labor Rate minus Standard Labor Rate multiplied by Actual hours worked

= $16 - $15 x 291

= $291 U

a2. Direct labor efficiency variance (LEV) = Standard hours minus Actual hours x Standard hourly rate

= 297 - 291 x $15

= $90 F

b1. Direct labor rate variance (LRV) = the difference between the actual wages paid and the standard wages

= (Actual labour rate x actual hours) - (standard rate x actual hours)

= ($16 x 291) - ($15 x 291)

= $4,656 - $4,365

= $291 U

b2. Direct labor efficiency variance = the difference between the actual number of direct labor hours worked and budgeted direct labor hours that should have been worked based on the standards

(291 x $15) - (297 x $15)

4,365 - 4,455

= $90 F

c. Total Direct labor rate variance (LRV) = Actual Wages minus Standard Wages

= (Actual labor rate x Actual hours) - (Standard labor rate x Standard hours)

= ($16 x 291) - ($15 x 297)

= $4,656 - $4,455

= $201 U

d. If actual wage rate paid in June was $14.00:

d1. Direct labor rate variance (LRV) = Actual Labor Rate minus Standard Labor Rate multiplied by Actual hours worked

= $14 - $15 x 291

= $291 F

d2. Direct labor efficiency variance (LEV) = Standard hours minus Actual hours x Standard hourly rate

= 297 - 291 x $15

= $90 F

d3. Total Direct labor rate variance (LRV) = Actual Wages minus Standard Wages

= (Actual labor rate x Actual hours) - (Standard labor rate x Standard hours)

= ($14 x 291) - ($15 x 297)

= $4,074 - $4,455

= $381 F

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations

Actual number of oil changes performed: 990

Standard number of direct labor hours to for 990 oil changes = 990 x 0.3 hours (since 18 minutes = 0.3 hours or 18/60) = 297 hours

Actual number of direct labor hours worked: 291 hours

Actual rate paid per direct labor hour: $16.00

Standard rate per direct labor hour: $15.00

b) The impact on direct labor rate variance if the actual wage rate paid in June was $14 was to turn the unfavorable labor rate variance into a favorable variance of $291 and the total direct labor variance would have been a favorable variance $381 instead of an unfavorable variance of $201.

Rahman stock just paid a dividend of $3.00 per share. Future dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate of 6% per year. What is the value of the stock if the required return is 12%

Answers

Answer:value of stock for the required return of 12 % =  $53

Explanation:

Given

current dividend just paid = $3.00

dividend to grow at constant rate of 6%

required rate of return =12%

to calculate the value of stock for the requitred return of 12 % , we use the dividend growth model which is  

Current price = dividend ( 1 + growth rate )/ (required rate -growth rate )

                        = 3 x (1+6%) / 12-6 = 3 x 1.06 /6% =3.18/0.06=  $53

Therefore  value of stock for the requitred return of 12 % ,=  $53

What economic benefit has the debt reschedule for developing countries?

Answers

Answer:

The main economic benefit that debt rescheduling has for developing countries is that it changes principal and interest payments to more favorable conditions.

This means that after the reschedule, developing countries will have to put less resources into the payments of public debt, which allows them to have more resources available for other public investments like education, healthcare, and infraestructure.
