Explanation:
Primary market for securities is one that provides access to buy new new issues of stocks and bonds of a company. A good example of primary market is an Initial Public Offering (IPO), organized by a company that wants to sell it's shares for the first time to investors.
While Secondary market, are places to sell securities to a secondary (second) buyer from the current security owner who bought from the primary market.
The primary market is dependent on the secondary market since it is the demand from the secondary market that determines the asset valuation of the primary market.
Suppose an item sells for $125 in the United States and for 62,500 pesos in Chile. According to the law of one price, the nominal exchange rate (pesos/dollar) should be ________.
Answer:
$1 = 500 Pesos
1 Pesos = $0.002
Explanation:
$125 = 62,500 Pesos
$1 = 62,500 / 125
$1 = 500 Pesos
$1 = 500 Pesos
1 Pesos = $1 / 500
1 Pesos = $0.002
An asset for drilling was purchased and placed in service by a petroleum production company. Its cost basis is $60,000,and it has an estimated MV of $12,000 at the end of an estimated useful life of 14 years. Compute the depreciationamount in the thirdyear and the BV at the end of the fifth year of life by each of these methods:
Answer:
straight line depreciation:
depreciation expense per year, the same for every year = ($60,000 - $12,000) / 14 = $3,428.57
book value end of year 1 = $56,571.43
book value end of year 2 = $53,142.86
book value end of year 3 = $49,714.29
book value end of year 4 = $46,285.72
book value end of year 5 = $42,857.15
double declining balance:
deprecation expense year 1 = 2 x 1/14 x $60,000 = $8,571.43
book value end of year 1 = $51,428.57
deprecation expense year 2 = 2 x 1/14 x $51,428.57 = $7,346.94
book value end of year 2 = $44,081.63
deprecation expense year 3 = 2 x 1/14 x $44,081.63 = $6,297.38
book value end of year 3 = $37,784.25
deprecation expense year 4 = 2 x 1/14 x $37,784.25 = $5,397.75
book value end of year 4 = $32,386.50
deprecation expense year 5 = 2 x 1/14 x $32,386.50 = $4,626.64
book value end of year 5 = $27,759.86
sum of digits:
depreciable value = $60,000 - $12,000 = $48,000
total sum of digits = 120 years
deprecation expense year 1 = $48,000 x 15/120 = $6,000
book value end of year 1 = $54,000
deprecation expense year 2 = $48,000 x 14/120 = $5,600
book value end of year 2 = $48,400
deprecation expense year 3 = $48,000 x 13/120 = $5,200
book value end of year 3 = $43,200
deprecation expense year 4 = $48,000 x 12/120 = $4,800
book value end of year 4 = $38,400
deprecation expense year 5 = $48,000 x 11/120 = $4,400
book value end of year 5 = $34,000
"A husband and wife wish to open an account that allows either party to trade or draw checks; and that becomes the property of the surviving spouse if one should die. The proper ownership form is:"
Answer:
Joint Tenants with Rights of Survivorship
Explanation:
The property ownership form that is being mentioned in the question is known as Joint Tenants with Rights of Survivorship . As described, this is when two individuals share equal ownership of the property and have the equal, undivided right to keep or dispose of the property. Rights of Survivorship means that if one of the individual joint tenants dies then their ownership of the property does not pass on to the next of kin but instead is passed to the other joint tenant that is the beneficiary.
On January 1, a company issued and sold a $300,000, 5%, 10-year bond payable, and received proceeds of $293,000. Interest is payable each June 30 and December 31. The company uses the straight-line method to amortize the discount. The carrying value of the bonds immediately after the first interest payment is:
Answer: $293,350
Explanation:
The carrying value of the bonds immediately after the first interest payment will be the addition of the received proceed and the ammortized discount. This will be:
= $293,000 + $350
= $293,350
Note that the ammortized discount was calculated as:
= ($300000 - $293000)/20
= $7000/20
= $350
Additional short-term borrowings $ 20,000

Chester currently has $17,624 (000) in cash and management has decided to issue stocks and bonds worth an additional $8,000 (000). Assuming that cash from operations will be the same for each of the following activities, which activity exposes this company to the most risk of being issued an emergency loan?
a) purchasing $18,000 (000) worth of plant and equiptment
b) liquidate the new inventory
c) retiring the oldest bond
d) a $5 dividend
Answer: a) purchasing $18,000 (000) worth of plant and equipment
Explanation:
Of the 4 options listed, liquidating the new inventory would lead to a cash inflow and so is not going to lead to an emergency loan.
Retiring the oldest bond is something that would probably have been budgeted for so it will be less probable to cause Chester to seek emergency funding.
The activity that poses the greatest threat to Chester in terms of loan solicitation would be the purchase of plant and equipment. This would have less chance of being budgeted for and is a significant amount to leave the company which is even larger than the company's current cash amount. It has a higher chance of causing Chester to seek emergency loan funding.
The issue of _____ concerns how often a particular project will be repeated and what its lifespan will be.
Full question reads;
The issue of _____ concerns how often a particular project will be repeated and what its lifespan will be.
a. frequency
b. consumption
c. pressures
d. rules
Answer:
a. frequency
Explanation:
Indeed, no particular human project can last forever, so there is a need to ascertain the frequency of a project, detailing how often the project would be repeated so as to also determine what the project's lifespan will be.
For example, a road construction project may take into account how often the road would be used, which provides insight into the frequency of road repairs and the overall lifetime of the car.
The issue of _____ concerns how often a particular project will be repeated and what its lifespan will be.
Alexander has been accepted as a freshman at a college two hundred miles from his home for the fall semester. Alexander's wealthy uncle, Michael, decides to give Alexander a car for Christmas. In November, Michael makes a contract with Jackson Auto Sales to purchase a new car for $18,000 to be delivered to Alexander just before the Christmas holidays, in mid-December. The title to the car is to be in Alexander's name. Michael pays the full purchase price, calls Alexander and tells him about the gift, and takes off for a six-month vacation in Europe. Is Alexander an intended third party beneficiary of the contract between Michael and Jackson Auto Sales
Answer:
Yes.
Alexander is an intended third party beneficiary of the contract between Michael and Jackson Auto Sales.
Explanation:
In the law of contracts, Alexander becomes a third-party beneficiary of the contract between Michael and Jackson Auto Sales, and he has the right to sue in the contract notwithstanding that he was not an active party to the contract. Some of the factors that may be present to show that a Alexander is an intended beneficiary are: (1) the contract's performance is rendered directly to Alexander; (2) Alexander has rights to control the details of the performance; or (3) there is an express designation in the contract, e.g. the title to the car is in Alexander's name.

Moorcroft sales are 40% cash and 60% credit. Credit sales are collected 20% in the month of sale, 50% in the month following sale, and 26% in the second month following sale; 4% are uncollectible. Moorcroft purchases are 50% cash and 50% on account. Purchases on account are paid 40% in the month following the purchase and 60% in the second month following the purchase.Prepare a schedule of expected collections from customers for June.
Answer:
The budgeted sales are missing, so I looked for them. I found the following question, hopefully it will be similar:
Month Sales
April $300,000
May $320,000
June $370,000
Schedule of expected collections
For the month of June, 202x
Cash sales during June = $370,000 x 40% = $148,000
Collection from June's credit sales = $222,000 x 20% = $44,400
Collection from May's credit sales = $192,000 x 50% = $96,000
Collection from April's credit sales = $180,000 x 26% = $46,800
Total cash collections during June = $335,200

Archie Co. purchased a framing machine for $60,000 on January 1, 2021. The machine is expected to have a four-year life, with a residual value of $5,000 at the end of four years. Using the sum-of-the years'-digits method, depreciation for 2022 and book value at December 31, 2022, would be: (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
$16,500
Explanation:
Depreciation is a method used in expensing the cost of an asset.
sum-of-the years'-digits method = (useful life remaining / sum of years) x (cost of asset - residual value)
sum of the years = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 10
(3 / 10) x ($60,000 - $5,000) = $16,500
You are planning to save for retirement over the next 30 years. To do this, you will invest $900 a month in a stock account and $600 a month in a bond account. The return of the stock account is expected to be 8 percent, and the bond account will pay 5 percent. When you retire, you will combine your money into an account with a return of 6 percent. How much can you withdraw each month from your account assuming a 15-year withdrawal period
Answer:
$15,533.69
Explanation:
the future value of your stock account = $900 x 1,490.48048 (FV annuity factor, 0.6667%, 360 periods) = $1,341,432.43
the future value of your bond account = $600 x 832.32019 (FV annuity factor, 0.4167%, 360 periods) = $499,392.11
after 30 years, the balance of your 2 accounts = $1,840,824.54
the monthly withdrawal = $1,840,824.54 / 118.50531 (PV annuity factor, 0.5%, 180 periods) = $15,533.69
If an investor's aversion to risk increased, would the risk premium on a high beta stock increase by more or less than that of a low-beta stock? Explain.
Answer:
risk premium increases by more of the low - beta stock
A risk averse investor is an investor that avoids risk. if risk aversion increases, it means that the investor is more wary of risky investment.
Beta measures the volatility of a portfolio. the higher the volatility, the more risky the portfolio is.
risk premium measures the rate of return in excess of the risk free rate.
According to CAPM :
risk free rate + (beta x stock risk premium)
Beta is a multiplier of stock risk premium, so the higher the beta, the more there would be an increase in the stock risk premium
If a risk averse investor invests in a high beta stock, he would want extra or higher compensation for holding such a volatile stock. this extra compensation would be in the form of a higher risk premium.
Explanation:
Current cost to source from the home plant to Country A is $0.55 per unit, plus $0.02 in shipping (there is no tariff). If product is sourced from Country B, manufacturing cost is expected to be 20% lower; but shipping will increase to $0.06, and there is a tariff of 15% on CIF. What will the savings be on 100 million units if sourcing for Country A switches from the home plant to Country B
Answer:
Cost savings in sourcing from Country A = $0.5 million ($57.5 - $57 million)
Explanation:
Sourcing from Country A:
Purchase price = $0.55 per unit
Shipping = $0.02
Total Cost = $0.57
Cost of 100 million units = $57 million
Sourcing from Country B:
Purchasing price = $0.44 ($0.55 x 80%)
Shipping = $0.06
CIF Tariff = 15% = $0.075 ($0.5 x 15%)
Total Cost = $0.575
Cost of 100 million units = $57.5 million
Sourcing from Country A is more beneficial than sourcing from Country B with reduced product cost, but increased shipping and additional tariff. Whereas Country A gives a total cost for 100 million units of $57 million, sourcing the same units from Country B gives a total cost of $57.5 million. The savings of $0.5 million is substantial that no company would like to lose unless the goods from Country B are of higher quality than those from Country A.

Assume Division 1 of the XYZ Company had the following results last year. Sales $5,000,000 Operating income 1,000,000 Total assets (average) 10,000,000 Current liabilities 500,000 Management's required rate of return is 8% and the weighted average cost of capital is 6%. Its effective tax rate is 30%. What is the division's economic value added?
Answer:
Economic Value was $130,000
Explanation:
As we know that:
Economic Value Added = Net Operating Income after tax - (WACC * Capital Employed)
Here
Operating Income After Tax is $700,000 (Step1)
WACC is 6%
Capital Employed is $9,500,000 (Step2)
By putting values, we have:
EVA = $700,000 - 9,500,000 * 6%
EVA = $700,000 - $570,000
EVA = $130,000
Step1: Operating Income After Tax
Simply deduct the 30% tax share from the operating income to arise at Net Operating Income After Tax.
Mathematically,
Net Operating Income After Taxes = Operating Income *(1 - Tax Rate)
Here
Operating Income is $1,000,000
Tax Rate is 30%
By putting values, we have:
Net Operating Income After Taxes = $1,000,000 * (1 - 30%)
Net Operating Income After Taxes = $700,000
Step2: Capital Employed
Capital Employed = Total Assets - Current Liabilities
Capital Employed = $10,000,000 - $500,000
Capital Employed = $9,500,000

The following data has been collected about Keller Company's stockholders' equity accounts: Common stock $10 par value 21,000 shares authorized and 10,500 shares issued, 1,100 shares outstanding $105,000 Paid-in capital in excess of par value, common stock 51,000 Retained earnings 26,000 Treasury stock 12,760 Assuming the treasury shares were all purchased at the same price, the number of shares of treasury stock is:
Answer:
9,400 shares
Explanation:
Treasury stock is the difference between issued shares and outstanding shares.
Number of treasure shares = Number of issued shares - Number of outstanding shares
Number of treasure shares = 10,500 - 1,100
Number of treasure shares = 9,400 shares
Therefore, number of treasury shares is 9,400

The development manager is required to choose between two projects. Project A has an IRR of 25% and project B has an IRR of 30%. Which of the following statements is correct? A. If she can invest only in one project, the manager will choose project B B. None of the statements above is correct C. If she can invest only in one project, the manager will choose project A D. If she can invest in both projects, the manager will choose both projects A and B
Answer:
A
D
Explanation:
Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested.
Because the IRR of both projects are positive, both projects are acceptable.
If the manager can only choose one project, she should choose the one with the higher IRR because it would be more profitable.

Trevor Company discloses supplementary operating segment information for its three reportable segments. Data for 20X8 are available as follows:
Segment A Segment B Segment C
Sales $500,000 $300,000 $200,000
Traceable operating expenses 250,000 120,000 90,000
Allocable costs for the year was $180,000. Allocable costs are assigned based on the ratio of a segment's income before allocable costs to total income before allocable costs. The 20X8 operating profit for Segment B was:
a. $180,000
b. $120,000
c. $126,000
d. $110,000
Answer:
Operating profit of segment B = $180,000
Explanation:
The allowable cost to any of the segment would be equal to the proportion that the segment income bears to the overall total income multiplied by the allocable cost.
Mathematically, we can use the realationship below:
Allocable cost to Segment B = Sales of segment B/Total sales × Alllocable cost
Allowable cost = 180,000
Total sales = 250,000+ 120,000 + 90,000 = 460,000
Allocable cost to B = (120,000/460,000) × 180,000 = 46,956.52
Allocable cost to segment B =$46,956.52
However,the question required us to determine operation profit.
Operating profit is the excess of sales revenue over operating expenses
Operating profit of segment B-= 200,000 - 90,000 = 180,000
Operating profit of segment B = $180,000
