Summarize the purpose of each organization, and discuss how you believe you can use these organizations to improve your ability to perform your duties as a safety and health professional.

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The three organizations would be OSHA, NIOSH, and NACOSH.

OSHA stands for Occupational Safety and Health Administration. It tries to ensure that the workers labor under the proper safety and health conditions in their workplace.

NIOSH stands for the National Instituto for Occupational Safety and Health. This organization basically is dedicated to researching to know the working conditions of workers in America and make recommendations.

NACOSH stands for the National Advisory Committee on Occupational Safety and Health. It functions as an adviser or counselor to the Department of Labor on safety and security issues.

These three can definitely be used to improve my ability to perform my duties as a safety and health professional in that they include a series of recommendations, programs, and educational tips to be applied in the workplace and diminish the possibility of accidents or how to react in case of one.

Answers

Answer:

None of the options are correct.

Explanation:

We start by calculating the net change of the treasury bond position.

= $95,125 - $95,000

= $125

The long treasury bond position gains $125 after a month.

We will also calculate the net change of the treasury bond futures contract.

= $94,125 - $95,187.50

= -$1,062.50

Therefore, Net profits is;

= $125 - $1,062.50

= -$937.50

Gabriele Enterprises has bonds on the market making annual payments, with eleven years to maturity, a par value of $1,000, and selling for $982. At this price, the bonds yield 7.6 percent.

Required:
What must the coupon rate be on the bonds?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 7.35 percent

Explanation:

N(Number of periods) = 11years

I/Y(Yield to maturity) = 7.6 percent

PV(present value or market price) = $982

PMT( coupon payment) = ?

FV( Future value or par value) = $1,000.

We are using a Financial calculator for this.

N= 11; I/Y = 7.6; PV = -$982; FV= $1,000; CPT PV= $73.52

Therefore, coupon rate is ($73.52/$1,000) x 100 percent

=7.35 percent

A bond par value is $1,000 and the coupon rate is 5.1 percent. The bond price was $946.02 at the beginning of the year and $979.58 at the end of the year. The inflation rate for the year was 2.6 percent. What was the bond's real return for the year

Answers

Answer:

the bond's real return for the year is 6.18 %.

Explanation:

First find the nominal return of the bond then the real return as follows :

PV = - $946.02

Pmt = $1,000 × 5.10% = $51

P/yr = 1

FV = $979.58

n = 1

r = ?

Using a Financial Calculator, the nominal return of the bond, r is 8.9385 %.

Real Return = ( 1 + nominal return) / (1 + inflation rate) -1

                   =  (1 + 0.089395) / (1 + 0.026) - 1

                   = 0.0618 or 6.18 %

Answers

Answer: a) A measure of the volatility of returns on an individual stock relative to the market

Explanation:

Beta is indeed a measure of the volatility of returns on an individual stock relative to the return on the market as a whole.

It is used in the Capital Asset Pricing Model which enables for the calculation of the stock's expected return.

Market Beta is always 1. Therefore betas measure shows how much more or less volatile than the market return, the stock return is. For instance, a beta of 2 means that the stock's returns are twice as volatile as the markets and a beta of 0.5 means the returns are only half as volatile as the market.

Cost of goods sold for the year was $362,000. Northwest uses a perpetual inventory system. What is ending inventory assuming Northwest uses the gross method to record purchases

Answers

Answer:

The ending inventory by using the gross method is $243,011

Explanation:

Purchases = Net purchases + Freight inwards

Purchases = 491,111 + 8,900

Purchases = 500,011

When Net purchase = Gross Purchase - Purchase return - Discount

Net purchase = 510,000 - 3,700- 15,189

Net purchase = 491,111

Working

Discount = (Purchases - Purchase return) × Discount rate

Discount = (510,000 - 3,700) * 3%

Discount = 15,189

Ending inventory = Beginning inventory + Purchases− Cost of good sold

Ending inventory = (105,000 + 500,011) - 362,000

Ending inventory = $243,011

Thus, the ending inventory by using the gross method is $243,011.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard: Direct materials 6 pounds $4.30 per pound $25.80

Actual= Jackson purchased 145,600 pounds of direct material at a total cost of $655,200.

To calculate the direct material price variance, we need to use the following formula:

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Actual price= 655,200/145,600= $4.5

Direct material price variance= (4.3 - 4.5)*145,600

Direct material price variance= $29,120 unfavorable

what I want to buy would be purchased at $50

at market exchange rate:

0.25 x 100 = $25

products bought from this place are not a good deal as I am paying more than the market exchange rate.

2. at equilibrium exchange rate:

100 x 0.25% = $25

the price is $25

3. from answers 1 and 2, I will not want demand Stan's rupees. the products are costly to get.

4. Stan's currency is obviously overvalued. the people from this country now has increased purchasing power so they can purchase goods in dollars, therefore they would be supplying their currency.

5. They will have to buy up the surplus of rupees so that they can easily keep up with maintaining the rupee at half a dollar.

an investment under consideration has a payback of six years and a cost of 876000. Assume the cash flows are conventional. If the required return is 12 percent, what is the worst-case NPV?

Answers

Answer:

-43291.14

Explanation:

Npv = net present value

Payback = 6 years

Required return = 12 percent

Cost = 876000

When we talk about last case npv we mean that cash flow has gotten to its last future. The entire cost of 876000 will have to be paid after 6 years and after that future cash flows would exist.

Npv = -876000 +(876000/1.12)⁶

= -876000+443808.86

= = -43291.14

Yan Yan Corp. has a $3,000 par value bond outstanding with a coupon rate of 5.2 percent paid semiannually and 25 years to maturity. The yield to maturity on this bond is 4.8 percent. What is the price of the bond? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

$3,173.63

Explanation:

For computing the price of the bond we need to apply the present value i.e to be shown in the attachment

Given that,  

Future value = $3,000

Rate of interest = 4.8% ÷ 2 = 2.4%

NPER = 25 years × 2 = 50 years

PMT = $3,000 × 5.2% ÷ 2  = $78

The formula is shown below:

= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)

So, after applying the above formula, the price of the bond is $3,713.63

Division A had ROI of 15% last year. The manager of Division A is considering an additional investment for the coming year. What step will the manager likely choose to take

Answers

Answer: c.Reject the investment if it returns less than 15% ROI.

Explanation:

Additional investments should yield incremental returns if they are to be accepted. In the previous year, Division A had an Return on Investment of 15%, when an additional investment is being considered, it must bring in more than that 15% if it is to be accepted.

Therefore, if an investment is to give a less than 15% ROI, it should be rejected as it is not bringing additional returns for the Division.

Net sales$688,500 $450,000 Cost of goods sold 337,364 133,200 Determine the 2016 and 2017 trend percents for net sales using 2016 as the base year.

Answers

Answer:

Trend- % change in sales =  34.64%

Explanation:

Trend analysis entails determining the performance of a business over time by comparing its performance data from one period to another. The aim of trend analysis is to identify the behavior of a set of ratios over a period of time by comparing them across different years.

To determine the trend for a particular data, we use the formula below

% Change in variable =

(Current year figure - Previous year figure)/Previous year figure × 100

DATA

Current year figure  for sales (2017) - 450,000

Previous year figure for sale (2016) - 688,500

% change in sales =   (450,000 -688,500)/688,500 × 100 = 34.64%

% change in sales =  34.64%

This implies that the company made sales in 2017 which is 34.64% less than that made in 2016

balance sheet reports assets of $6900000 and liabilities of $2700000. All of Ivanhoe’s assets’ book values approximate their fair value, except for land, which has a fair value that is $410000 greater than its book value. On 12/31/21, Oriole Corporation paid $7030000 to acquire Ivanhoe. What amount of goodwill should Oriole record as a result of this purchase?

Answers

Answer: $2,420,000‬

Explanation:

Goodwill is the amount over the fair value of a company that it is purchased for.

Goodwill = Acquisition price - Net Assets

Net Assets = Assets - Liabilities

= (6,900,000 + 410,000) - 2,700,000

= $4,610,000‬

Goodwill = 7,030,000 - 4,610,000

= $2,420,000‬

Complete Question:

Ford Motor Company is discussing new ways to recapitalize the firm and raise additional capital. Its current capital structure has a 10% weight in equity, 25% in preferred stock, and 65% in debt. The cost of equity capital is 17%, the cost of preferred stock is 11%, and the pretax cost of debt is 9%. What is the weighted average cost of capital for Ford if its marginal tax rate is 40%?

Answer:

7.96%

Explanation:

We can calculate WACC using the formula:

WACC = Cost of equity * Equity %age / 100%         +          

After Tax Cost of Debt * Debt %age / 100%            +        

Cost of Preferred Stock * Preferred Stock %age / 100%

Here,

Cost of equity is 17%

Cost of preferred stock is 11%

Post tax cost of debt = Pre-Tax cost *  (1 - Tax rate)

This implies,

Post tax cost of debt = 9% * (1 - 40%) =  5.4%

Equity weight is 10% weight in equity

Preferred stock weight is 25%

Debt Weight is 65%

By putting value in the formula given in the attachment, we have:

WACC = 17% * (10% / 100%)      +     11% * (25% / 100%)    +    5.4% * (65% / 100%)

WACC = 1.7%   +   2.75%   +    3.51%

WACC = 7.96%
