An investment adviser representative's friend provides him with a list of 10 prospective clients. The representative agrees to pay his friend a referral fee for each person on the list that opens an account with the adviser. Which statement is TRUE

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: C. The arrangement is permitted only if it is in writing between the investment adviser and the friend and the arrangement is disclosed in writing to any customer opening an account

Explanation:

The friend in this case will be ruled to be a Solicitor under SEC Rules as they are referring clients to the Investment Adviser for a fee.

As such this business relationship between the friend and the Investment Adviser representative will fall under SEC Rule 206(4)-3 Cash payments for client solicitations. This rule makes it clear amongst other things that the investment adviser will have to prepare a written disclosure document which will inform any customer opening an account  of the agreement between the adviser and his friend.

Kate is in the 15% tax bracket and has $29,000 available for investment during her current tax year. Assume that she remains in the same tax bracket over the next 11 years, and determine the accumulated amount of her investment after taxes if she puts the$29,000 into the following. (Round your answers to the nearest cent.)(a) a tax-deferred annuity that pays 4%/year, tax deferred for 11 years$ (b) a taxable instrument that pays 4%/year for 11 years

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The Accumulated amount of her investment atter taxes is

Before that first we have to determine the future value which is shown below:

As we know that

Future value = Present value × (1 + interest rate)^number of years

= $29,000 × (1 + 0.04)^11

= $44,644.17

And, the tax rate is 15%

So, the after tax value is

= $44,644.17 × (1 - 0.15)

= $37,947.54

b. Now for the second part it is

= Annual cash flows × Annuity factor at 3.4% for 11 years

= $29,000 × 10.638

= $308,502

Which of the following is not a recommended guideline for designing and administering a compensation and reward system that will truly motivate organization members, inspire their best efforts, and sustain high levels of productivity?
A. Make the performance payoff a major, not minor, piece of the total compensation package
B. Keep the time between achieving the target performance outcome and the payment of the reward as short as possible
C. Maintain a 50-50 balance between monetary and non-monetary rewards and a 50-50 balance between positive and negative incentives
D. Make sure that the performance targets that each individual or team is expected to achieve involve outcomes that the individual or team can personally affect
E. Absolutely avoid skirting the system to find ways to reward effort rather than results

Answers

Answer: C. Maintain a 50-50 balance between monetary and non-monetary rewards and a 50-50 balance between positive and negative incentives.

Explanation:

Employees generally prefer to be paid for their hardwork and so would prefer that their rewards are more monetary in nature than not. As good as non-monetary rewards are, they should not be on equal footing with monetary rewards. If they are, it could demotivate employees who will feel they are not getting paid their fair share.

Negative incentives get the job done but more often than not fail to positively motivate employees in such a way that they will bring out their best efforts. Negative incentives are more like punishments or the threat of them and so if they are on equal footing with positive investments, organization members will not be as motivated.

Shares in prince and nice have a beta of 0.9. The expected returns to the market are 10% and the risk free rate of return is 4%. What is the cost of equity capital for prince and nice?

Answers

Answer:

9.4%

Explanation:

using the CAPM formula, the cost of equity (Re) is:

Re = Rf + B(Rm - Rf)

Rf = risk free rate = 4%Rm = market risk = 10%B = beta = 0.9

Re = 4% x [0.9 x (10% - 4%)] = 4% x (0.9 x 6%) = 4% x 5.4% = 9.4%

The cost of equity (Re) refers to the required rate of return that investors expect to receive from a certain investment, e.g. stocks or any particular project

Answers

The question is incomplete as it does not contain values. The following is the complete question.

UPS, a delivery services company, has a beta of 1.2, and Wal-mart has a beta of 0.8. The risk-free rate of interest is 4% and the market risk premium is 7%. What is the expected return a portfolio with 40% of its money in UPS and the balance in Wal-Mart?

Answer:

The expected return of the portfolio is Portfolio r = 0.1072 or 10.72%

Explanation:

The expected return of a portfolio is the weighted average of the individual stocks' expected returns that form up the portfolio.

The formula for portfolio's expected return is as follows,

Portfolio r = wA * rA + wB * rB + ... + wN * rN

Where,

w is the weight of each stock in the portfolior is the expected return of each stock

To calculate the expected return of the portfolio, we will first calculate the expected return of UPS and Wal Mart using the CAPM equation.

The formula for expected return under CAPM is,

r = rRF + Beta * rpM

Where,

rRF is the risk free raterpM is the risk premium of market

r UPS = 0.04 + 1.2 * 0.07

r UPS = 0.124 or 12.4%

r Wal Mart = 0.04 + 0.8 * 0.07

r Wal Mart = 0.096 or 9.6%

Portfolio r = 0.4 * 0.124  +  0.6 * 0.096

Portfolio r = 0.1072 or 10.72%

The FREC is investigating a claim by a buyer that the broker had not given the proper disclosure to the buyer before the buyer purchased a home. The broker has paperwork dating back three years from the date of the signing of the document in question, and one year after the legal action of the case. Is the broker protected?

Answers

Answer:

No

Explanation:

The Florida Real Estate Commission was constituted in 1926. Members are appointed by the Governor.

The aim of FREC is to protect ye public from bad practices by brokers. They have the authority to impose disciplinary action on lisensees.

According to requirement of the FREC the broker is required to keep records of transactions 5 years after the transaction occurred and 2 years after any legal action.

In this case the broker kept his records 3 years after the transaction and 1 year after legal action.

So he is not protected from disciplinary action by the FREC

frolic Corporation has budgeted sales and production over the next quarter as follows: July August September Sales in units 41,500 53,500 ? Production in units 42,550 53,800 58,150 The company has 4,300 units of product on hand at July 1. 10% of the next month's sales in units should be on hand at the end of each month. October sales are expected to be 73,000 units. Budgeted sales for September would be (in units):

Answers

Answer:

56,500 units

Explanation:

The computation of Budgeted sales for September is shown below:-

we assume the no. of units sold in September be ‘x’

Budgeted Production production for September = Budgeted sale for September + desired ending inventory for September – Beginning Inventory for September

58,150 = x units + (73,000 × 10%) - (x units of Sept. × 10%)

58,150 = x + 7,300 - 0.10x

58,150 - 7300 = 0.9x

50,850 = 0.9x

x = 50850 ÷ 0.9

x = 56,500 units

What are the total costs for the year?c. If the selling price is $44.99 per unit, does the company break even on a cash basis? I depreciation is $435,000 per year, what is the accounting break-even point?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Unitary direct material cost= $11.13

Unitary direct labor cost= $7.29

A.

Total variable cost per unit= 11.13 + 7.29= $18.42

B. Fixed costs= $875,000

Production= 190,000

Total costs= 875,000 + 18.42*190,000= $4,374,800

C.

To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 875,000 / (44.99 - 18.42)

Break-even point in units= 32,932 units

D. Depreciation= $435,000

Accounting break-even point= (875,000 - 435,000) / 26.75

Accounting break-even point= 16,449 units

Rather than crediting the Unearned rent account for $400 of prepaid rent received from a customer, which explains an alternate recording procedure to journalize this receipt?

Answers

Answer:

Record receipt with a credit to the rent revenue account

Any unused portion of the prepayment still existing at the end of the period will be transferred to the Unearned rent account

Explanation:

Prepaid rent is an income that is to be earned at a future date. Since income is normally recorded as a revenue when it is earned, we usually credit Unearned Rent account.

However financial statements are made at end of a defined period (for example monthly, quarterly, biannually, or yearly).

The journal entry can be credited to the Rent Revenue account directly. At the end of the period the amount earned is retained in the account, and the unearned portion of the prepaid rent is transferred to the Unearned Rent account.

So financial statements will only recognise earned income when prepared.

Annual demand for a product is 13,000 units; weekly demand is 250 units with a standard deviation of 40 units. The cost of placing an order is $100, and the time from ordering to receipt is four weeks. The annual inventory carrying cost is $0.65 per unit.a. To provide a 98 percent service probability, what must the reorder point be?b. Suppose the production manager is told to reduce the safety stock of this item by 100 units. If this is done, what will the new service probability be?

Answers

Answer:

a. Reorder point is 1,164 units to provide a 98 percent service probability.

b. the new service probability will be 79% if production manager reduces the safety stock by 100 units.

Explanation:

a. To provide a 98 percent service probability, what must the reorder point be?

This can be calculated as follows:

Step 1: Calculation of optimal order quantity

The optimal order quantity also known as economic order quantity (EOQ) using the following formula:

[tex]EOQ = \sqrt{\frac{2 *D*O}{C} }[/tex] ........................................... (1)

Where,

EOQ = Optimal order quantity = ?

D = Annual demands = 13,000

O = Ordering cost = $100

C = Carrying cost of annual inventory = $0.65 per unit

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

[tex]EOQ = \sqrt{\frac{2*13,000*100}{0.65} }[/tex]

[tex]EOQ = \sqrt{\frac{2,600,000}{0.65} }[/tex]

[tex]EOQ = \sqrt{4,000,000}[/tex]

EOQ = 2,000 units

Step 2: Calculation of standard deviation during the lead time

This can be calculated using the following formula:

[tex]SL = \sqrt{L*(S)^{2} }[/tex] ................................................. (2)

Where;

SL = Standard deviation during the lead time = ?

L = Lead time = 4

S = Standard deviation = 40

Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:

[tex]SL = \sqrt{4 *(40)^{2} }[/tex]

[tex]SL = \sqrt{4*1,600}[/tex]

[tex]SL =\sqrt{6.400}[/tex]

SL = 80

Also, z = 2.05 from the standard normal distribution

Step 3: Calculation of reorder point

Total calculate reorder point, we use the following formula:

R = (d * L) + (z * SL) ............................................ (3)

Where;

R = Reorder point = ?

d = Weekly demand = 250

L = Lead time = 4

z = 2.05

SL = Standard deviation during the lead time = 80

Substituting the values into equation (3), we have:

R = (250 * 4) + (2.05 * 80)

R = 1,000 + 164

R = 1,164 units

Therefore, reorder point is 1,164 units to provide a 98 percent service probability.

b. Suppose the production manager is told to reduce the safety stock of this item by 100 units. If this is done, what will the new service probability be?

ISS = Initial safety stock = z * SL = 2.05 * 80 = 164

If the safety stock is reduced by 100 units, we have:

NSS = New safety stock = ISS - 100 = 164 - 100 = 64

The new z (nz) can be obtained as follows:

NSS = nz * SL ................................................. (4)

Where;

NSS = 64

nz = new z = ?

SL = Standard deviation during the lead time = 80

Substituting the values into equation (4) and solve for nz, we have:

64 = nz * 80

nz = 64 / 80

nz = 0.80

For the new z, nz = 0.80, from Standard Normal distribution, the new service probability is 79%.

Therefore, the new service probability will be 79% if production manager reduces the safety stock by 100 units.

An asset has had an arithmetic return of 11.9 percent and a geometric return of 9.9 percent over the last 86 years. What return would you estimate for this asset over the next 8 years? 23 years? 39 years? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

11.74% ; 11.38%; 11.01%

Explanation:

Given the following :

Arithmetic return (Ar) = 11.9%

Geometric return (Gr) = 9.9%

N = 86 years = Past period

A) Return in the next 8 years

T = future period = 8 years

Return = (T - 1) / (N - 1) * Geometric average + (N - T) / (N - 1) * Arithmetic average.

Return = (8 - 1) / (86 - 1) * 0.099 + (86 - 8) / (86 - 1) * 0.119

(0.0823529 * 0.099) + (0.9176470 * 0.119)

= 0.1173529301

= 0.1173529301 * 100 = 11.74%

B) over the next 23 years

T = 23 years

Return = (T - 1) / (N - 1) * Geometric average + (N - T) / (N - 1) * Arithmetic average.

Return = (23 - 1) / (86 - 1) * 0.099 + (86 - 23) / (86 - 1) * 0.119

(0.2588235 * 0.099) + (0.7411764 * 0.119)

= 0.1138235181

= 0.1138235181 * 100 = 11.38%

C.) over 39 years

F = 39 years

Return = (T - 1) / (N - 1) * Geometric average + (N - T) / (N - 1) * Arithmetic average.

Return = (39 - 1) / (86 - 1) * 0.099 + (86 - 39) / (86 - 1) * 0.119

(0.4470588 * 0.099) + (0.5529411 * 0.119)

= 0.1100588121

= 0.1100588121 * 100 = 11.01%

"When The Bank of Bank County borrows funds from the Federal Reserve; the rate the Fed charges the commercial bank is called the _____ rate."

Answers

Answer: Bank Rate/ Discount Rate

Explanation:

The Bank Rate is the interest rate that the Fed as the country's Central Bank charges commercial banks when they borrow money from it. The loans given are usually short term in nature.

The Bank Rate is a very useful tool in Monetary Policy by the Central Bank. If the Fed for instance would like to increase Economic activity by injecting cash into the economy, they can lower the bank rate and thus encourage more banks to loan money from them which will then be loaned to the public. If the Fed wanted to decrease Economic activity, the reverse would hold true.

If the market rate is 8%, calculate the issue price. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, and PVA of $1)

Answers

Answer:

$44,728,243.62

Explanation:

face value $40,700,000

coupon rate 9%, semiannual 4.5%

maturity 20 years x 2 = 40 periods

market interest rate 8%

issue price?

present value of face value = $40,700,000 / (1 + 4%)⁴⁰ = $8,477,364.12

present value of coupon payments = $1,831,500 x 19.793 (PV annuity factor, 4%, 40 periods) = $36,250,879.50

market price = $8,477,364.12 + $36,250,879.50 = $44,728,243.62

b) $75,000

c) 17,100 units

d) total sales revenue $342,000

- variable costs = -$239,400

- fixed expenses = $75,000

net income = $27,600

e) 20.38%

f.1) 30%

f.2) $22,800

Explanation:

                                                       Total          Per unit

Sales                                            $314,000        $20

Variable expenses                     $219,800         $14

Contribution margin                    $94,200          $6

Fixed expenses                           $75,000

Net operating income                 $19,200

break even point = fixed costs / contribution margin = $75,000 / $6 = 12,500 units

units needed to yield expected profits = (fixed costs + expected profits) / contribution margin = ($75,000 + $27,600) / $6 = 17,100 units

margin of safety = (current sales - break even point) / current sales = ($314,000 - $250,000) / $314,000 = 20.38%

contribution margin ratio = (total revenue - variable costs) / total revenue = ($314,000 - $219,800) / $314,000 = 30%

$76,000 x 30% = $22,800

The monthly break-even point in unit sales is 12,500 units. The total contribution margin at the break-even point is $75,000.

c) 17,100 units would have to be sold each month to attain a target profit of S27,600.

d) total sales revenue of $342,000

- variable costs = -$239,400

contribution margin = $102,600

- fixed expenses = $75,000

net income = $27,600

e) The company's margin of safety in percentage terms is 20.38%.

f.1) The company's CM ratio is 30%.

f.2) The  Expected monthly net operating income to increase by $22,800.

The break-even threshold is reached when overall costs and total revenues are equal, leaving your small firm with no net benefit or loss. In other words, you've achieved the point in manufacturing when the income from a product matches the cost of manufacturing.

A formula known as net operating income (NOI) is used to assess the profitability of real estate assets that produce revenue. NOI is the sum of all property revenues less all running costs that are deemed to be reasonably reasonable.

On a property's income and cash flow statement, NOI is a before-tax statistic that does not include loan principal and interest payments, capital expenses, depreciation, or amortization. In other sectors, this term is known as "EBIT," which stands for "earnings before interest and taxes."

Your first baby was born yesterday and is healthy and strong. To guard against your premature death, you want to purchase a life insurance policy that will replace $58,000 of your annual income until your child is 20 years old. How much life insurance should you purchase, if you assume a 3% inflation rate

Answers

Answer:

assuming the  interest rate is = 15% the  life insurance should you should purchase = $497854.0773

Explanation:

Given that :

Annual income receipt = $58000

Assumption:

If we assume that the inflation rate π = 3% = 0.03

Also , let assume that the interest rate is = 15%  = 0.15 since it is not given too

Then the effective interest rate = [tex]\dfrac{ (i-\pi)}{(1+\pi)}[/tex]

the effective interest rate = [tex]\dfrac{ (0.15-0.03)}{(1+0.03)}[/tex]

the effective interest rate = [tex]\dfrac{ (0.12)}{(1.03)}[/tex]

the effective interest rate = 0.1165

the effective interest rate = 11.65%

Since n = [tex]\infty[/tex]

The Principal amount of how much life insurance should you purchase is;

= Annual income receipt/the effective interest rate

= $58000/ 0.1165

= $497854.0773

If the capital stock is fixed and something happens to raise the marginal product of capital for any given quantity of capital, then the real rental price of capital will:

Answers

Answer: B) rise

Explanation:

The real rental price of capital refers to the cost of borrowing capital which is the interest payment on the capital less the capital gains made. As a result it is equal to the marginal product of capital which shows how much extra, a unit of capital enables the entity to produce.

Therefore, if marginal product of capital rises, as is the case in the question, so will the real rental price of capital.

Explanation:

For the following investments, identify whether they are: Trading debt securities. Available-for-sale debt securities. Held-to-maturity debt securities. None of the above. Each case is independent of the other.
(a) A bond that will mature in 4 years was bought 1 month ago when the price dropped. As soon as the value increases, which is expected next month, it will be sold.
(b) 10% of the outstanding stock of Farm-Co was purchased. The company is planning on eventually getting a total of 30% of its outstanding stock.
(c) Bonds were purchased in December of this year. The bonds are expected to be sold in January of next year.
(d) Bonds that will mature in 5 years are purchased. The company would like to hold them until they mature, but money has been tight recently and they may need to be sold.
(e) Preferred stock was purchased for its constant dividend. The company is planning to hold the preferred stock for a long time.
(f) A bond that matures in 10 years was purchased. The company is investing money set aside for an expansion project planned 10 years from now.

Answers

Answer:

(a) A bond that will mature in 4 years was bought 1 month ago when the price dropped. As soon as the value increases, which is expected next month, it will be sold.  - Trading Debt Securities

Trading debt securities such as these are held only for a short time before they are sold with the goal being short term profit.

(b) 10% of the outstanding stock of Farm-Co was purchased. The company is planning on eventually getting a total of 30% of its outstanding stock.  - None of the Above

This is an Equity Investment.

(c) Bonds were purchased in December of this year. The bonds are expected to be sold in January of next year.  - Trading Debt Securities

Like the bond in (a), this is being held for a short while only and then it will be sold so it is a Trading debt security.

(d) Bonds that will mature in 5 years are purchased. The company would like to hold them until they mature, but money has been tight recently and they may need to be sold.  - Available-for-sale debt securities

Available for sale debt securities are to be sold before maturity and therefore have no certain selling time. The bond above has no selling time as it might be sold at any point so it is an Available-for-sale debt security.

(e) Preferred stock was purchased for its constant dividend. The company is planning to hold the preferred stock for a long time.  - None of the above.

This is an Equity investment as well.

(f) A bond that matures in 10 years was purchased. The company is investing money set aside for an expansion project planned 10 years from now. - Held-to-maturity debt securities.

Held to Maturity bonds are bought with no intention of selling and the company hopes to hold them till they mature like this bond which will be held for 10 years.

How much will be in the Prepaid Insurance account at the end of the year, after the adjusting entries have been prepared and posted

Answers

Answer: $8,400

Explanation:

The $9,600 is for 2 years in advance. This can be apportioned per month at a rate of;

= 9,600/24

= $400 per month.

October to the end of the year is 3 months so;

= 400 * 3

= $1,200 will be recorded for the year.

Prepaid Insurance will therefore reduce to;

= 9,600 - 1,200

= $8,400

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Caribou Gold Mining Corporation is expected to pay a dividend of $6 in the upcoming year. Dividends are expected to decline at the rate of 3% per year. The risk-free rate of return is 5%, and the expected return on the market portfolio is 13%. The stock of Caribou Gold Mining Corporation has a beta of .5. Using the constant-growth DDM, the intrinsic value of the stock is _________. A. $150 B. $50 C. $100 D. $200

Answer:

$50

Explanation:

Caribou Gold mining corporation is expected to make a dividend payment of $6 next year

Dividend are expected to decline at a rate of 3%

= 3/100

= 0.03

The risk free rate of return is 5%

= 5/100

= 0.05

The expected return on the market portfolio is 13%

= 13/100

= 0.13

The beta is 0.5

The first step is to calculate the expected rate of return

= 0.05+0.5(0.13-0.05)

= 0.05+0.5(0.08)

= 0.05+0.04

= 0.09

Therefore, the intrinsic value of the stock using the constant growth DDM model can be calculated as follows

Vo= 6/(0.09+0.03)

Vo= 6/0.12

Vo= $50

Hence the intrinsic value of the stock is $50
