A stock has an average return of 13.6% and a standard deviation of 8.4%. In any one given year, you have a 95% chance that you will not lose more than _____% nor earn more than ____% if you invest in this security.
a. 5.2% to 22.0%.
b. 3.2% to 30.4%.
c. 3.2% to 30.4%.
d. 5.2% to 22.0%.
e. 13.6% to 38.8%.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

options B and C are identical, and they are both right.

b. 3.2% to 30.4%. c. 3.2% to 30.4%.

you have a 95% chance that you will not lose more than 3.2% nor earn more than 30.4% if you invest in this security.

Explanation:

a 95% confidence level represents approximately 2 standard deviations, so the stock could lose up to 13.6% - (2 x 8.4%) = -3.2% in the worse case scenario. You should also be able to earn 13.6% + (2 x 8.4%) = 30.4% in the best case scenario.

c. $59.91.
d. $58.62.
e. $59.05.

Answers

Answer:

There is no correct answer is these options. But the correct answer is $113.41

Explanation:

The formula to solve this is:

Po = D1/r - g

Po is the Current price of the common stock

D1 is the future dividend payment

r is the rate of return

g is the growth rate.

This is quite different from the usual(single stage). This is Two-stage Dividend Discount Model. To solve this;

D1(Dividend in year 1) is $3.15( $2.42 x 1.3)

D2(Dividend in year 2) is $3.78(3.15 x 1.2)

D3(Dividend in year 3) is $4.15($3.78 x 1.1)

D in subsequent years is $4.36(4.15 x 1.05)

P3(price of stock in year 3) = $4.36/0.083 - 0.05

=$132.12

Now the stock's current market value is

$3.15/1.08 + $3.78/1.08^2 + $4.15/1.08^3 + $132.12^3

The price of the stock is $113.41

Your campus computer store reported Sales Revenue of $175,000. The company's gross profit percentage was 65 percent. What amount of Cost of Goods Sold did the company report?

Answers

Answer:

The company reported $61,250 amount of Cost of Goods Sold

Explanation:

As gross profit percentage is the net percentage of sales revenue and cost of goods sold. We can find the cost of goods sold percentage as follow

Gross profit = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold

Placing the percentage

65% = 100 % - Cost of Goods sold

Cost of Goods sold = 100% - 65%

Cost of Goods sold = 35%

Now calculate the value of cost of goods sold using following formula

Cost of goods sold percentage = Cost of good sold / Sales Revenue

35% = Cost of Goods sold / $175,000

Cost of Goods sold = $175,000 x 35%

Cost of Goods sold = $61,250

a. 20,711.
b. 113,377.
c. 41,422.
d. 56,688.
e. 23,000.

Answers

Answer:

$19,810.54

Explanation:

Calculation for the minimum number of bonds the firm must sell to raise the $11 million it needs

First step is to calculate the price of each bond

Price of each bond =1,000 / (1+0.04)^15

Price of each bond =1,000 / (1.04)^15

Price of each bond =$555.26

Now let calculate the minimum number of bonds the firm must sell

Minimum number of bonds to sell=$11 million/$555.26

Minimum number of bonds to sell=$19,810.54

Therefore the minimum number of bonds the firm must sell to raise the $11 million it needs is

$19,810.54

For 2018, Gourmet Kitchen Products reported $23 million of sales and $18 million of operating costs (including depreciation). The company has $15 million of total invested capital. Its after-tax cost of capital is 10% and its federal-plus-state income tax rate was 35%. What was the firm's economic value added (EVA), that is, how much value did management add to stockholders' wealth during 2018?

Answers

Answer:

$1,750,000

Explanation:

Calculation for how much value did management add to stockholders' wealth during 2018

First step is to calculate the Operating income

Operating income=23 million-18 million

Operating income= 5 million

Now let calculate the EVA=

EVA= (5,000,000 *(100-35%))-($15,000,000*10%)

EVA=($5,000,000*65%)- ($15,000,000*10%)

EVA=$3,250,000-$1,500,000

EVA=$1,750,000

Therefore the amount of value that the management add to stockholders' wealth during 2018 will be $1,750,000

A company purchased an asset for $2,850,000 that will be used in a 3-year project. The asset is in the 3-year MACRS class. The depreciation percentage each year is 33.33%, 44.45%, and 14.81%, respectively. What is the book value of the equipment at the end of the project?
A) $211,185.B) $0.C) $633,270.D) $1,900,095.E) $2,638,815.

Answers

Answer:

A) $211,185

Explanation:

The computation of the book value of the equipment at the end of the project is as follows;

Depreciation in Year 1 is

= Asset Price × 33.33%

= $2,850,000 × 33.33%

= $949,905

Depreciation in Year 2 is

= Asset Price × 44.45%

= $2,850,000 × 44.45%

= $1,266,825

And, Depreciation in Year 3 is

= Asset Price × 14.81%

= $2,850,000 × 14.81%

= $422,085

Now

Total Accumulated Depreciation is

= $949,905 + $1,266,825 + $422,085

= $2,638,815

And, finally  

Book Value of the equipment is

= $2,850,000 - $2,638,815

= $211,185

Therefore the correct option is a.

In December, Handy announced $202,700 net income for 2021 and declared and paid a cash dividend of $3.00 per share on all 202,500 shares of its outstanding common stock. Zwick Company's dividend revenue from Handy Corporation in December 2021 would be:

Answers

Answer:

$76,500

Explanation:

Zwick Company owns 25,500 shares of Handy Corporation, which represents 25,500 / 202,500 = 12.59% of all common stocks. Since Zwick influence over Handy is not significant, all dividends received will be directly considered dividend revenue.

total dividends received = $3 per share x 25,500 shares = $76,500

Answers

Answer:

since the market price is lower than the offered price, you should reject this offer

Explanation:

bond's market value

PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 4.5%)²⁰ = $414.64

PV of coupon payments = $40 x 13.00794 (PV annuity factor, 20 periods, 4.5%) = $520.32

market price = $934.96

since the market price is lower than the offered price, you should reject this offer

Petersen Company has a capital budget of $1.0 million. The company wants to maintain a target capital structure that is 55% debt and 45% equity. The company forecasts that its net income this year will be $800,000. If the company follows a residual distribution model and pays all distributions as dividends, what will be its payout ratio?

Answers

Answer: 43.75%

Explanation:

Payout ratio = Dividends paid / Earnings

Company has a Capital budget of $1 million which must be financed by 45% equity.

= 1,000,000 * 45%

= $450,000

This will be taken from the Net income which would leave the following for dividends;

= 800,000 - 450,000

= $350,000

Payout ratio = 350,000/800,000

= ‭0.4375‬

= 43.75%

C. Inflation can result from falling demand and reduces the value of money. Deflation can result from rising demand and boost the value of money.

D. Inflation can result from rising demand and reduces the value of money. Deflation can result from falling demand and boost the value of money.

Answers

Answer:

D. Inflation can result from rising demand and reduces the value of money. Deflation can result from falling demand and boost the value of money.

Explanation:

Inflation is the general increase in prices in the economy over time. As the economy grows, prices automatically rise. There is a direct correlation between economic development and inflation. A high growth rate may result in a high inflation rate. High growth is caused by an increase in demand for goods and services.

Inflation erodes the purchasing power of money. As prices increase, it means one unit of money will purchase fewer quantities of goods and services than the previous season.

Deflation is the opposite of inflation. It means a general decline in prices in the country. Low production due to reduced demand causes prices to decline. One unit of money will purchase more quantities of goods and services as prices decline.

I believe the answer is D :)

a) $32,720,000
b) $29,448,000
c) $35,446,667
d) $33,538,000

Answers

Answer: d) $33,538,000

Explanation:

Use straight line depreciation and find the annual depreciation.

= (40,900,000 - 4,090,000) / 15

= $‭2,454,000‬

In 3 years, the depreciation is;

= ‭2,454,000‬ * 3

= $‭7,362,000‬

Net book value = 40,900,000 - ‭7,362,000‬

= $‭33,538,000‬
