g An arbitrage opportunity arises when... Group of answer choices An investment has a high risk-return ratio. disparity between 2 or more prices allow investors to yield a sure profit the risk-free rate generates a positive alpha. a net investment is taken place within a portfolio

Answers

Answer:

disparity between 2 or more prices allow investors to yield a sure profit

Explanation:

Arbitrage is defined as the practice where there is simultaneous buying and selling of an asset so as to benefit from a price difference.

Usually the price differences occur in different markets, so the arbitrator acts as a supplier of the goods to market where goods are to be sold.

For example if a company buys fertiliser from a whole seller and immediately sells the goods to a farmer's cooperative at higher price this is arbitrage.

So abitrage opportunity is when disparity between 2 or more prices allow investors to yield a sure profit

The term crowding-out effect refers to a situation in which a government _______________ results in ______________ interest rates, causing ______________ in private spending on investment and consumer durables.

Answers

Answer: Deficit; higher; a decrease

Explanation:

The term crowding-out effect refers to a situation in which a government deficit results in higher interest rates, causing a decrease in private spending on investment and consumer durables.

The Crowding-out effect is what happens when a Government increases its spending past its revenues and gets a budget deficit. In other to balance its books therefore it will borrow heavily.

If the Government is such a large one like the American Government or the British Government, the borrowing might be so large that it will have the effect of reducing the amount of loanable funds in the market thereby increasing the interest rates due to a reduced supply of loanable funds.

As there are now increased interest rates, it will be more expensive for companies to borrow to spend on investment or for consumers to spend on durables. It will have the effect of crowding out the private sector.

If the distribution of water is a natural monopoly, then:__________.
a. a single firm cannot serve the market at the lowest possible average total cost.
b. allowing for competition among different firms in the water-distribution industry is efficient.
c. average cost increases as the quantity of water produced increases.
d. multiple firms would likely each have to pay large fixed costs to develop their own network of pipes.

Answers

Answer:

d. multiple firms would likely each have to pay large fixed costs to develop their own network of pipes.

Explanation:

Option a is wrong because:

The initial investment is very high, therefore, the more firms competing will only increase the required investments and fixed costs associated with them, e.g. depreciation, maintenance. That is why the lowest average costs is generally achieved when only one firm serves this type of market.

Option b is wrong because:

A natural monopoly exists because it is extremely difficult for two or more competing firms to exist. Generally the required investment is very high, and the revenues are not large enough to allow two or more firms to compete.

Option c is wrong because:

Utilities require large initial investments, but once they are set up, the production costs are very small. I.e. the fixed costs are more relevant than the variable costs. Average production costs as decrease as the quantity produced increases.

In 2019, Dan transferred 5-year property to Fleck Corp. in a tax-deferred Section 351 transaction. Fleck took Dan's adjusted basis in the property. Dan originally placed the depreciable property in service in 2017. What year of the depreciation schedule will Fleck use to depreciate the property

Answers

Answer:

The property will be depreciated using the remaining 3 years of its life after the tax-free incorporation transfer year.  This is because Dan had already depreciated the property for 2 years before the transfer.

Explanation:

Sec. 351 allows a tax-free incorporation transfer if certain requirements are met, including that the property must be transferred to Fleck Corporation by Dan in exchange for stock in Fleck Corporation, and, immediately after the exchange, the Fleck Corporation is in control.

The common stock currently sells for $61 per share and has a beta of 1.15, the preferred stock has a par value of $100 and currently sells for $95 per share, and the bonds have 19 years to maturity and sell for 109% of par.

A. What is the firm’s market value capital structure?
B. If the company is evaluating a new investment project that has the same risk as the firm’s typical project, what rate should the firm use to discount the project’s cash flows?

Answers

Answer:

A. The Capital structure is : 4.23 % - Equity, 6.59 % - Preferred Shares and 89.17 % - Debt

B. The  firm should discount the project’s cash flows at 4.45 %.

Explanation:

Total Market Value = Market Value of Equity + Market Value of Debt + Market Value of Preferred Shares

Market Value of Equity =  280,000 shares × $61

                                      =   $17,080,000

Market Value of Preferred Shares = 280,000 shares × $95

                                                        = $26,600,000

Market Value of Debt = 165,000 bonds × $2,000 × 109%

                                    = $359,700,000

Total Market Value = $403,380,000

Capital Structure :

Weight of Equity = $17,080,000 / $403,380,000 × 100

                            = 4.23 %

Weight of Preferred Shares = $26,600,000 / $403,380,000 × 100

                                              = 6.59 %

Weight of Debt = $359,700,000 / $403,380,000 × 100

                          = 89.17 %

Thus, the market value capital structure is : 4.23 % - Equity, 6.59 % - Preferred Shares and 89.17 % - Debt

Firms use the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) to discount the project’s cash flows.

Cost of Debt, r

PV = $2000 × 109 % = - $2,100

PMT = ($2,000 × 5.9%) ÷ 2 = $59

n = 19 × 2 = 38

P/YR = 2

FV = $2,000

r = ?

Using a Financial Calculator, Pretax cost of debt, r is 5,47 %

After tax cost of debt = Interest × ( 1 - tax rate)

                                   = 5,47 % × ( 1 - 0.25)

                                   = 4.10 %

Cost of Equity

Cost of Equity = Return on Risk Free Security + Beta × Return on Risk Premium Portfolio

                       = 3.5 % + 1.15 × 7.1%

                       = 11.67 %            

Cost of Preference Stock            

Cost of Preference Stocks = 4.5%

WACC = ke(W/V) + kd(D/V) + kp(P/V)

           =  11.67 % × 4.23 % + 4.10 % × 89.17 % + 4.5% × 6.59 %

           =  4.45 %

Answer: did not change

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that On May 1, 2010, Ziek Corp. declared and issued a 10% common stock dividend and that prior to this dividend, Ziek had 100,000 shares of $1 par value common stock issued and outstanding. We are further informed that the fair value of Ziek 's common stock was $20 per share on May 1, 2010.

As a result of this stock dividend, Ziek's total stockholders' equity did not change. The accounts involved belong to the stockholders' equity, therefore, there will be no change on the total stockholders equity.

The following information describes the production activities of Mercer Manufacturing for the year.
Actual direct materials used 28,000 lbs. at $4.90 per lb.
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

Unlike direct materials, the sum of all the direct labor variances is always equal to the flexible budget variance.
A. True
B. False

Answers

Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

Unlike direct materials, the sum of all the direct labor variances is always equal to the flexible budget variance. Also, a negative direct labor efficiency variance is considered favorable one. And for a direct labor, if the efficiency and rate variances are both negative, then the flexible budget variance will be unfavorable. Therefore, the statement of the question is true.

A creamery shop sells its special ice cream for $4.50 a quart. It costs them $3.00 a quart to make it. The daily demand for this flavor is normally distributed with a mean of 35 quarts and a standard deviation of 4 quarts. Unsold ice cream is sold each day to a local restaurant at $1.50 per quart. What is the service level and corresponding optimal stocking level?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the service level and the corresponding optimal stocking level is shown below:

Given that

Selling price = SP = $4.50

Cost price = CP  = $3.00

So,

Salvage value =  V  = $1.50

Average daily demand (d) = 35 quarts

The  standard deviation of daily demand  = 4 quarts

based on the above information

Overage cost = (Co) is

= CP - V

= $3.00 - $1.50

= $1.50

Now

Underage cost= (Cu)

= SP - CP

= $4.50 - $3.00

= $1.50

So,  

Service level is

= Cu ÷ (Co + Cu)

= 1.50 ÷ (1.50 + 1.50)

= 1.50 ÷ 3.00

= 0.50

= 50%

Now

At 50 % service level, the value of Z is 0

So,

Optimal stocking level is

= d + Z × standard deviation

= 35 + (0  × 4)

= 35 + 0  

= 35 quarts

4. Suppose you hold a PUT option on Israeli shekels with a strike price of 3.4207s/$. If the spot rate on the final day of the option is 3.4329s/$, how much profit would you make trading $1,000,000? Should you do it?

Answers

Answer:

Profit $3,567

I would exercise my option by buying the shares before the expiration .

Explanation:

Calculation of how much profit would you make trading $1,000,000

First step is to multiply the spot rate on the final day by the trading amount

3.4329s*$1,000,000

=$3,432,900

Second step is to divide the spot rate option by the strike price

3,432,900/3.4207

=$1,003,567

Last Step is to find the profit

Profit =$1,003,567-$1,000,000

Profit=$3,567

Therefore the amount of PROFIT you would make trading $1,000,000 will be $3,567

Based on the above calculation I would exercise my option by buying the shares before the expiration .

If the rate of inflation is 2.2% per year, the future price pt (in dollars) of a certain item can be modeled by the following exponential function, where t is the number of years from today.

p(t)=1200(1.039^t)

Find the current price of the item and the price 9 years from today.

Answers

Answer:

1693.25

Explanation:

The computation of the current price of the item and the price 9 years from today is shown below:-

p(t) = 1,200 × (1.039)^t

Now, the current price can be found by putting t = 0

p(0) is

[tex]1,200\times (1.039)^0 = $1,200[/tex]

The price 10 years from today

p(9) is

[tex]1,200\times (1.039)^9[/tex]

Now we will solve the above equation

= 1,200 × 1.411041958

= 1693.25035

or

= 1693.25

When a deliverable arrived, Craig met with the team member responsible
for ordering the deliverable to confirm it was the correct model and size.


Which of the following project elements was Craig monitoring in this scenario?

a. Budget
b. Schedule
c. Scope
d. Risk

In the example above when deliverable came and Craig met with the team member for ordering confirming whether the model and size was correct, Craig was monitoring Risk. So the correct option is D.

Risk refers to the possibility chances that the desired or the expected result will be obtained from the activities that are undertaken. Risk is directly related to the reward of such activity.

In the example above where Craig confirms whether the model and size of goods arrived were correct with the help of the team member who ordered such deliverable, risk was being monitored.

In this case the risk can be denoted by value of 1 as the chances of getting the correct model and size are equal with chances of getting the incorrect model and size. Risk can be denoted by beta .

[tex]\rm Risk = \beta[/tex]

Monitoring of risk is an important aspect so as to ensure whether the activities undertaken for the benefit of the business are standing true to their efforts or not.

Hence, the correct option is D that Craig was monitoring risk by checking the deliverable was correct in terms of model and size with the help of a team member.
