rt, a $0.73 per share cash dividend was declared by the board of directors for it common stock. On 12/31, the date of declaration, there were 98,000 shares authorized, 59,000 shares issued, and 8,000 Treasury shares. On the date of the dividend declaration, what amount will Walmart record into their dividend account
Answers
Answer:
$36,792
Explanation:
Missing word "At Walmart, the board of directors declared a $0.73"
Outstanding stockholder = Issued stockholder - Treasury stock
Outstanding stockholder = 59,000 shares - 8,600 shares
Outstanding stockholder = 50,400 shares
Amount of Dividend = Declared per share cash dividend * Outstanding stockholder
Amount of Dividend = 50,400 shares * $0.73
Amount of Dividend = $36,792
So therefore, on the date of the dividend declaration, $36,792 shall be recorded by Walmart into their dividend account.
An FI purchases at par value a $100,000 Treasury bond paying 10 percent interest with a 7.5 year duration. If interest rates rise by 4 percent, calculate the bond's new value. Recall that Treasury bonds pay interest semiannually. Use the modified duration valuation equation.
Answers
Answer:
The bond's new value is $70,000
Explanation:
First calculate the percentage change in the value of the bond
Duration = Percentage change in price / Percentage change in yield
Percentage change in price = Duration x Percentage change in yield
where
Duration = 7.5 years
Percentage change in yield = 4%
Percentage change in price = ?
Placing value sin the formula
Percentage change in price = 7.5 x 4%
Percentage change in price = 0.30
Percentage change in price = 30%
As we know that the value of the bond and the yield rate are inversely proportional to each other, If the yield rate increases the value of the bond decreases due to the discounting factor used in the valuation o the bond.
Hence, the value of the bond is calculated as follow
Value of the bond = Par value of the bond x ( 1 - per centage of change in the price of the bond
Value of the bond = $100,000 x ( 1 - 30% )
Value of the bond = $100,000 x 0.70
Value of the bond = $70,000
Spanolia LLC is estimating its WACC. Its bonds have a 12 percent coupon, paid semiannually, a current maturity of 20 years, and sell for 1,000 USD. The firm's marginal tax rate is 40 percent. What is the after-tax cost of debt? Answer in % terms to 2 decimal places w/o the % sign.
Answers
Answer:
Spanolia LLC
The after-tax cost of debt is:
= 7.20%.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Coupon interest rate of bonds = 12%
Maturity period = 20 years
Selling price = $1,000
Firm's marginal tax rate = 40%
After-tax cost of debt = Coupon interest rate * (1 - tax rate)
= 12% * (1 - 0.4)
= 12% * 0.6
= 7.20%
b) Spanolia's after-tax cost of debt is derived by multiplying the cost of debt by the after-tax rate. The after-tax cost of debt represents the interest that Spanolia LLC pays on the bonds less the income tax savings that it gains because interest expenses are tax-deductible.
The government of Egalitariania wants to favor firms and is considering implementing a maximum wage. Assume the maximum wage is both binding and less than the equilibrium wage. What happens to the employment of workers
Answers
Answer: It will increase
Explanation:
A maximum wage means that companies do not have to pay more than a certain wage limit. If this wage limit is less than the equilibrium wage, companies would be able to spend less on wages than they are normally supposed to.
Their cost will therefore reduce and they will be able to hire more workers with the money they would have spent to pay the workers the equilibrium wage thereby increasing the number of people employed in the country.

This is commonly refered to as a form of research review and final evaluation of one's competitors. It is beneficial due to the fact that the information you obtained/known can help you to be based on your competitor weaknesses
When starting this analysis, always you set up expectations that can be achieved so that one's team has enough time to fully research, analyze, and share their findings.
Competitive analysis, as a part of your business planning, is a means by which an individual believes that their business will survive and thrive competitively in the market because the individual has full attachment to current competitors and one's potential competition too.

MSI has been approached by a fourth-grade teacher from Portland about the possibility of creating a specially designed game that would be customized for her classroom and environment. The teacher would like an educational game to correspond to her classroom coverage of the history of the Pacific Northwest, and the state of Oregon in particular. MSI has not sold its products directly to teachers or school systems in the past, but its Marketing Department identified that possibility during a recent meeting.
The teacher has offered to buy 1,000 copies of the CD at a price of $5 each. MSI could easily modify one of its existing educational programs about U.S. history to accommodate the request. The modifications would cost approximately $500. A summary of the information related to production of MSI’s current history program follows:
Direct materials $ 1.50
Direct labor 0.60
Variable manufacturing overhead 2.25
Fixed manufacturing overhead 2.00
Total cost per unit $ 6.35
Sales price per unit $ 12.00
Required:
1. Compute the incremental profit (or loss) from accepting the special order.
2. Should MSI accept the special order?
Yes
No
3. Suppose that the special order had been to purchase 1,000 copies of the program for $4.50 each. Compute the incremental profit (or loss) from accepting the special order under this scenario.
4. Suppose that MSI is operating at full capacity. To accept the special order, it would have to reduce production of the history program. Compute the special order price at which MSI would be indifferent between accepting or rejecting the special order. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answers
Answer:
1. The incremental profit from accepting the special order is $150.
2. Yes, MSI should accept the special order. This is because it will increase profit by $150.
3. The incremental loss from accepting the special order is $350.
4. The special order price at which MSI would be indifferent between accepting or rejecting the special order is $12.50 per unit.
Explanation:
Note that only variable costs are relevant to making decision on a special order. That is, fixed cost is not relevant. Therefore, we have:
Total variable cost per unit = Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead = $1.50 + $0.60 + $2.25 = $4.35.
We then proceed as follows:
1. Compute the incremental profit (or loss) from accepting the special order.
Incremental profit (or loss) = ((Special order price per unit - Total variable cost per unit) * Units of special order) - Modification cost = (($5 - $4.35) * 1,000) - $500 = $150
Therefore, the incremental profit from accepting the special order is $150.
2. Should MSI accept the special order?
Yes, MSI should accept the special order. This is because it will increase profit by $150.
3. Suppose that the special order had been to purchase 1,000 copies of the program for $4.50 each. Compute the incremental profit (or loss) from accepting the special order under this scenario.
Incremental profit (or loss) = ((Special order price per unit - Total variable cost per unit) * Units of special order) - Modification cost = (($4.50 - $4.35) * 1,000) - $500 = ($350), or –$350
Therefore, the incremental loss from accepting the special order is $350.
4. Suppose that MSI is operating at full capacity. To accept the special order, it would have to reduce production of the history program. Compute the special order price at which MSI would be indifferent between accepting or rejecting the special order. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
This can be calculated as follows:
Modification cost per unit = Modification cost / Units of special order = $500 / 1,000 = $0.50
Special order price = Regular price + Modification cost per unit = $12 + $0.50 = $12.50 per unit
Therefore, the special order price at which MSI would be indifferent between accepting or rejecting the special order is $12.50 per unit.

BK Books is an online book retailer that also has 10,000 "bricks and mortar" outlets worldwide. You are a risk-neutral manager within the CorporateFinance Division and are in dire need of a new financial analyst. You onlyinterview students from the top MBAprograms in your area. Thanks to yourscreening mechanisms and contacts, the students you interview ultimately dif-fer only with respect to the wage that they are willing to accept. About 5 per-cent of acceptable candidates are willing to accept a salary of $60,000, while95 percent demand a salary of $110,000. There are two phases to the inter-view process that every interviewee must go through. Phase 1 is the initialone-hour on-campus interview. All candidates interviewed in Phase 1 are alsoinvited to Phase 2 of the interview, which consists of a five-hour office visit.In all, you spend six hours interviewing each candidate and value this time at$750. In addition, it costs a total of $4,250 in travel expenses to interview each candidate. you are very impressed with the first interviewee completing both phases of bk books’s interviewing process, and she has indicated that her reservation salary is $110,000. should you make her an offer at that salary or continue the interviewing process? explain.
Answers
Answer: Therefore, we should make her an offer at that salary
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question,
Lowest salary = $60,000
Highest salary = $110,000
Expected Benefit = 5% × ($110,000 - $60,000) = 5% × $50,000 = $2500
The cost of conducting another interview will be:
= cost of time + cost of travel
= $750 + $4250
= $5000
Since the cost of conducting the additional interview is more than the expected benefit, therefore the interviewee should be hired rather than continuing the interviewing process.
Therefore, we should make her an offer at that salary.

Suppose you buy 30 of the September corn futures contracts at the last price of the day. One month from now, the futures price of this contract is 464.5, and you close out your position. Calculate your dollar profit on this investment
Answers
Full question attached
Answer and Explanation:
If you buy 30 of the September corn futures contract at the closing price of 472.00(refer to the chart in picture attached)
Your total buying value = 30×472.250=14167.5
Since one month from now the corn futures contract is 464.5
Total value of your corn futures now= 30×464.5= 13935
Profit/loss=13935-14167.5= -232.5

Suppose a company wants to structure its assets and liabilities such that its equity is unaffected by interest rate risk. To accomplish that objective, which of the following must the company do?
a. The duration of its liabilities must be longer than the duration of its assets.
b. The duration of its liabilities must equal the duration of its assets.
c. The duration of its liabilities must be shorter than the duration of its assets.
Answers
Answer: b. The duration of its liabilities must equal the duration of its assets
Explanation:
Since the company wants to structure its assets and liabilities such that its equity is unaffected by interest rate risk, then the duration of its liabilities must equal the duration of its assets.
It should be noted that when the duration of its liabilities is shorter than the duration of its assets, the duration gap is positive and when there's a rise in interest rate, the worth of assets will be affected more.
When duration of its liabilities is longer than the duration of its assets, the duration gap is negative and when there's a rise in interest rate, the worth of liabilities will be affected more.
Finally, when the duration of its liabilities is equal the duration of its assets, its equity is unaffected by interest rate risk.
