A firm pays a current dividend of $1.00 which is expected to grow at a rate of 5% indefinitely. If current value of the firm’s shares is $35.00, what is the required return based on the constant growth dividend discount model (DDM)?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

8%

Explanation:

A firm pays a current dividend of $1

The growth rate is 5%

= 5/100

= 0.05

The current value of the firm's share is $35

Therefore, the required return using the constant growth discount dividend model can be calculated as follows

K = 1×(1+0.05)/35 + 0.05

K= 1×1.05/35 + 0.05

= 1×0.03 + 0.05

= 0.03 + 0.05

= 0.08×100

= 8%

Hence the required return is 8%

Builtrite has calculated the average cash flow to be $16,000 with a standard deviation of $4000. What is the probability of a cash flow being less than $9000? (Assume a normal distribution.)

Answers

Answer:

4%

Explanation:

For Builtrite, we can find the probability of cash flows by using the following formula:

Z = (X - C) / S

Average Cash Flow is $16000 which denoted by "C"

Standard Deviation is $4000 and is denoted by "S"

And

For cash flows that are less than $9000 which is denoted by X in the equation, "Z" can be calculated as under:

Z = (X - C) / S = ($9,000 - $16,000) / $4,000 = -1.75

As Z is less than -1.75, now we can see that the probability from the Z-table is 4% for -1.75.

Hence the probability of cash flow below $9,000 is 4%.

Assume that your parents wanted to have a 170,000 saved for college by your 18th birthday and they started saving on your first birthday. They saved the same amount each year on your birthday and earned 6.5% per year on their investmenets.Required:a. How much would they have to save each year to reach their goal?b. If they think you will take five years instead of four to graduate to graduate and decide to have $140,000 saved just in case, how much more would they have to save each year to reach their new goal?

Answers

Answer:

a. They will have to save $5,245.28 each year to reach their goal of $170,000.

b. They will have to save $925.63 less to reach their new goal of $140,000.

Note: The answer to part b is based on the information in the question. Therefore, the correct answer is "they will have to save $925.63 less" not  "save more" as suggested in the question. Kindly confirm this from your teacher.

Explanation:

a. How much would they have to save each year to reach their goal?

Since the saving started on your first birthday to have $170,000 saved, it implies the saving will be on your every birthday for 18 years. Therefore, the relevant formula to use to determine this is the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity as follows:

FV = M * {[(1 + r)^n - 1] / r} ................................. (1)

Where,

FV = Future value of the amount after your 18th birthday = $170,000

M = Yearly saving to have $170,000 = ?

r = interest rate = 6.5%, 0.065

n = number of years this savings will be made = 18

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for M, we have:

$170,000 = M * {[(1 + 0.065)^18 - 1] / 0.065}

$170,000 = M * 32.4100673759666

M = $170,000 / 32.4100673759666

M = $5,245.28

Therefore, they will have to save $5,245.28 each year to reach their goal of $170,000.

b. If they think you will take five years instead of four to graduate to graduate and decide to have $140,000 saved just in case, how much more would they have to save each year to reach their new goal?

First, we have to calculate how much they will save each year, by also using the Future Value (FV) for calculating an Ordinary Annuity as follows:

FVn = Mn * {[(1 + r)^n - 1] / r} ................................. (1)

Where,

FV1 = New future value of the amount after your 18th birthday = $140,000

M1 = New yearly saving to have $140,000 = ?

r = interest rate = 6.5%, 0.065

n = number of years this savings will be made = 18

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for M1, we have:

$140,000 = M1 * {[(1 + 0.065)^18 - 1] / 0.065}

$140,000 = M1 * 32.4100673759666

M1 = $140,000 / 32.4100673759666

M1 = $4,319.65

Therefore, they will have to save $4,319.65 each year to reach their goal of $140,000.

To obtain difference in yearly savings, we have:

Difference in yealy saving = M - M1 = $5,245.28 - $4,319.65 = $925.63

Since $5,245.28 each year to reach their goal of $170,000 is greater than $4,319.65 each year to reach their goal of $140,000, it therefore implies that they will have to save $925.63 less to reach their new goal of $140,000.

Compute the break-even sales (units) for the overall enterprise product, E.

Answers

Answer:

$15,500 units

Explanation:

For the computation of break-even sales (units) for the overall enterprise product, E first we need to follow some steps which is shown below:-

Contribution margin = (Selling price - Variable costs)

For Bats $90 - $50

= $40

For Gloves = $105 - $65

= $40

Overall contribution margin = (40 × 40%) + (40 × 60%)

= $40

a.Break-even point = Fixed costs ÷ Contribution margin

= $620,000 ÷ 40

= $15,500 units

The Prior Period Adjustment to be recorded in 2025 will be:

Answers

Answer:

The Prior Period Adjustment to be recorded in 2025 will include a $90 debit as adjustment to Retained Earnings

Explanation:

Correct depreciation would have been = ($500-$100)/5 = $80

Depreciation charged wrongly as ($500-$400)/8 = $50

Therefore depreciation has been charged short by $30 for three years, thereby reflecting income greater by $30 each year for 3 years.

Since due to wrong depreciation retained earnings is higher by $90, therefore we have to debit retained earnings by $90

A stock is bought for $24.00 and sold for $26.00 one year​ later, immediately after it has paid a dividend of​ $1.50. What is the capital gain rate for this​ transaction?

Answers

Answer:

8.33%

Explanation:

A stock is bought for $23.00

The stock is sold for $26 after one year

The dividend paid is $1.50

Therefore, the capital gain rate can be calculated as follows

Capital gain= P1-Po/Po

= 26-24/24

= 2/24

= 0.0833 ×100

= 8.33%

Hence the capital gain rate for this transaction is 8.33%

Actual direct labor used 8,650 hours for a total of $174,730
Actual units produced 51,600
The budgeted standards for each unit produced are 0.50 pounds of direct material at $6.85 per pound and 10 minutes of direct labor at $21.20 per hour.
1. Compute the direct materials price and quantity variances. Do not round intermediate calculations.
2. Compute the direct labor rate and efficiency variances. Indicate whether each variance is favorable or unfavorable. Do not round intermediate calculations.

Answers

Answer:

Actual Quantity = 28,000

Actual Price  = 4.90

Standard Quantity = 25,800  

Standard Price  = 4.85

1)a. Direct Material Price variance = (Standard price – Actual Price)*Actual Quantity

= (4.85 - 4.90) * 28,000

= $1,400 U

b. Direct Material Quantity variance = (Standard Quantity – Actual Quantity)*Standard price

= (51,600*0.5 - 28,000)*4.85

= $10,670 U

2) a. Direct Labor Rate Variance = (Standard Rate – Actual Rate)*Actual Hours

= (21.20 - 20.2) * 8,650

= $8,650 F

b. Direct Labor Efficiency variance = (Standard Hours – Actual Hours)*Standard rate

= (51,600*1/6 - 8,650) * 21.20

= $1,060 U

On January 2 2018, Maxwell Furniture purchased display shelving for $8,100 cash, expecting the shelving to remain in service for five years. Maxwell depreciated the shelving on a double-declining-balance basis, with $1,800 estimated residual value. On October 31, 2019, the company sold the shelving for $2,700 cash.
Requirement:

Answers

Answer: Please find answers in explanation column

Explanation:

Double declining depreciation rate = 1/n x 2

= 1/5 x 2= 2/5 = 0.4 x 100 = 40 %

Carrying value = if depreciation rate = 40 % , then begining value = 100-40=60%

 Depreciation expense for 2019 =  Carrying value x depreciation nrate x period(jan- oct) = $8,100 x 60% x 40% x 10/12 = $1,620

D) Martin will be unable to recover because parking under an open window amounts to assumption of risk.

Answers

Answer:

B) Martin can recover if he can prove that book racks do not fall out of windows in the absence of negligence and that Regalia Inc. had exclusive control of the rack prior to the fall.

Explanation:

Negligence is defined as a situation where a person does not take due care and conduct oneself like a reasonable person in a given circumstance.

When a defendant is negligent he will be held responsible for damage that results from his negligence.

In this scenario Martin's parked his bike and makes a delivery, meanwhile a book rack falls on his bike.

Martin's can only recover against Regalia if he proves that he was not negligent in any way, and that Regalia had control of the rack before the fall.

For example if Martins did not park his bike in a designated parking spot, he can be seen to be negligent. In that case he will not be able to recover against Regalia.

Jason has a loan that requires a single payment of $6,000 at the end of 3 years. The loan's interest rate is 10%, compounded semiannually. How much did Jason borrow? (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)

Answers

Answer:

Jason borrowed $4,4,77.29

Explanation:

In order to calculate this, let we will use the formula for the future value on an invested amount, semiannually, yielding interest at a certain interest rate. This is done as follows:

[tex]FV\ =\ PV(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{(n\times t)}[/tex]

where:

FV =  future value = $6,000 (loan repayment)

PV = present value = amount borrowed = ??

r = interest rate = 10% = 10/100 = 0.1

n = number of compounding periods per year = 2

t = time = 3 years

[tex]6,000\ =\ PV(1+\frac{0.1}{2} )^{(2\times 3)}\\6,000\ =\ PV(1+ 0.05)^{6}\\6,000\ =\ PV(1.05)^{6}\\6,000\ =\ PV (1.340096)\\diving\ both\ sides\ by\ 1.340096\\PV = \frac{6,000}{1.340096} \\PV = \$4,477.29[/tex]

Therefore, Jason borrowed $4,4,77.29

There is a minimum chance that you might be able to make some money by selling your stocks to someone that hasn't heard about the fire and its negative consequences (not a regular trader or outside the market), but it would be extremely rare for it to happen. When such extraordinary events happen, it is common for stocks to be traded after market hours, so when the market opens the next day, the price will already be adjusted.

Explanation:

the total decrease in Roybus's market value = ($175,000,000 / 1.126) + ($61,000,000 / 1.126²) = $155,417,407 + $48,111,960 = $203,529,367

the decrease will negatively affect stock price by -$203,529,367 / 37,000,000 stocks = -$5.50 per stock

The treasurer of Riley Coal Co. is asked to compute the cost of fixed income securities for her corporation. Even before making the calculations, she assumes the aftertax cost of debt is at least 3 percent less than that for preferred stock.

Debt can be issued at a yield of 11.0 percent, and the corporate tax rate is 20 percent. Preferred stock will be priced at $60 and pay a dividend of $6.40. The flotation cost on the preferred stock is $6.

a. Compute the aftertax cost of debt. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Input your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)
b. Compute the aftertax cost of preferred stock. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Input your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)
c. Based on the facts given above, is the treasurer correct?

Answers

Answer:

a. Compute the after tax cost of debt.

after tax cost of debt = 11% x (1 - tax rate) = 11% x 0.8 = 8.8%

b. Compute the after tax cost of preferred stock.

after tax cost of preferred stock = cost of preferred stock (no taxes are deducted for paying preferred dividends since they are paid in capital)

cost of preferred stocks = $6.40 / ($60 - $6) = $6.40 / $54 = 11.85%

c. Based on the facts given above, is the treasurer correct?

the difference = 11.85% - 8.8% = 3.05%, so the treasurer was right

Suppose that Dunkin Donuts reduces the price of its regular coffee from $2 to $1 per cup, and as a result, the quantity sold per day increased from 10 to 40. Over this price range, the price elasticity of demand for Dunkin Donuts’ regular coffee is:

Answers

Answer:price elasticity of demand for Dunkin Donuts’ regular coffee is 1.8

Explanation: Using the midpoint formnulae

Price elasticity of Demand =percentage change in quantity demanded/ Percentage change in price.

Percentage change in quantity = new quantity  - old quantity  / (new quantity + old quantity)/2  x 100

= 40-10/(40+10)/ 2 = 30 /25 = 1.2 x 100 =120%

Percentage change in price  = new price   - old price   / new price + old price)/2   x 100

= 1- 2 / (1+2)/2= -1/1.5x 100 = -66.67 %

Price elasticity of Demand =percentage change in quantity demanded/ Percentage change in price.

= 120%/-66.67%= -1.79 = -1.8

For Price elasticity of demand, the sign is not included and the basis for elasticity is on the value itself . here we can conclude that the Price elasticity of demand for Dunkin donut is 1.8 and elastic because a fall in price led to an increase in amount being sold.

An appraiser estimated the replacement cost new of a building at $560,000. The building has an estimated economic life of 40 years and an estimated remaining life of 30 years. What is the current value of the building

Answers

Answer:

The answer is $420,000

Explanation:

To find the amount of depreciation being charged years, we use the following formula:

Cost of the asset ÷ number of useful life

Cost of the asset - $560,000

Number of useful life - 40 years

$560,000 ÷ 40 years

$14,000.

The asset has 30 years remaining, that means it has used 10 years. So the accumulated depreciation is $140,000

And the current value of the building now is $420,000($560,000 - $140,000)

The current value of the building is $420000

The estimated economic life is 40 years, hence after 40 years the value of the house would be 0.

Since the estimated remaining life is 30 years. Hence:

Percentage value of house = 30 remaining years / 40 economic year

Percentage value of house = 0.75 * 100 = 75%

The current value of the building = 75% * $560000 = $420000

The current value of the building is $420000
