Answers

Answer:

Supply of and demand for money.

Explanation:

The equilibrium interest rate is determined by the demand and supply of the money. The interest rate is represented by the verticle axis of the graph and supply and demand for money is represented by the horizontal axis. Thus, the point of intersection between supply curve and demand curve determines the equilibrium interest rate.

Thirty years ago, the original owner of Greenacre, a lot contiguous to Blueacre, in fee simple, executed and delivered to his neighbor an instrument in writing which was denominated "Deed of Conveyance." In pertinent part it read, "[The owner] does grant to [the neighbor] and her heirs and assigns a right-of-way for egress and ingress to Blueacre." If the quoted provision was sufficient to create an interest in land, the instrument met all other requirements for a valid grant. The neighbor held record title in fee simple to Blueacre, which adjoined Greenacre. Twelve years ago the owner's son succeeded to the original owner's title in fee simple in Greenacre and seven years ago the neighbor's daughter succeeded to the neighbor's title in fee simple to Blueacre by a deed which made no mention of a right-of-way or driveway. At the time the neighbor's daughter took title, there existed a driveway across Greenacre which showed evidence that it had been used regularly to travel between the main road and Blueacre. Blueacre did have frontage on a side road, but this means of access was seldom used because it was not as convenient to the dwelling situated on Blueacre as was the main road. The driveway originally was established by the neighbor. The neighbor's daughter has regularly used the driveway since acquiring title. The period of time required to acquire rights by prescription in the jurisdiction is ten years. Six months ago the son notified the neighbor's daughter that the son planned to develop a portion of Greenacre as a residential subdivision and that the daughter should cease any use of the driveway. After some negotiations, the son offered to permit the daughter to construct another driveway to connect with the streets of the proposed subdivision. The daughter declined this offer on the ground that travel from Blueacre to the main road would be more circuitous. The neighbor's daughter brought an appropriate action against the son to obtain a definitive adjudication of the respective rights of the daughter and the son. In such lawsuit the son relied upon the defense that the location of the easement created by the grant from the original owner to the neighbor was governed by reasonableness and that the son's proposed solution was reasonable.

The son's defense should:____________

Answers

Answer: Son's argument should fail

Explanation:

The son's defense will fail because the location of the easement is not governed by reasonableness as it had been established at its current location by the neighbor.

It can not now be changed arbitrarily by the son because the original owner had allowed it to be built. The easement's location is therefore established by actions between the original owner and the neighbor and so it is a binding location.  

Paul, the Director of Recruitment at an insurance company, finds that the company has a disparate impact on the proportion of Hispanic employees compared to the proportion of Hispanics in the labor market. Which of the following steps should Paul take to solve the problem most efficiently?
a) He should lower the job specifications for Hispanic applicants.
b) He should continue using the current recruiting practices because only organizations with affirmative action plans are required to meet EEO guidelines.
c) He should start advertising for job openings on the local Spanish radio station.
d) He should freeze the hiring process until qualified Hispanics apply for vacant positions

Answers

Answer: c) He should start advertising for job openings on the local Spanish radio station.

Explanation:

This realization by Paul should make him want to hire more Hispanics into the company and the best way to do so would be to advertise it in such a way that Hispanics have a better chance of hearing about job openings.

Advertising on Spanish radio would ensure that Hispanics hear the advertisements because they are the main ethnicity that speaks Spanish. This will give them an edge in learning about job openings and enable Paul to hire more Hispanics.

Here are data on two companies. The T-bill rate is 4% and the market risk premium is 6%.What would be the fair return for $1 Discount Store according to the capital asset pricing model (CAPM)

Answers

Answer:

13%

Explanation:

Please find attached a table containing further information needed to answer this question

According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)

Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x market premium

Beta measures systemic risk

The higher beta is, the higher the systemic risk and the higher the compensation demanded for by investors

4% + (1.5 x 6%) = 13%

At the present time, Water and Power Company (WPC) has 10-year noncallable bonds with a face value of $1,000 that are outstanding. These bonds have a current market price of $1,495.56 per bond, carry a coupon rate of 10%, and distribute annual coupon payments. The company incurs a federal-plus-state tax rate of 25%. If WPC wants to issue new debt, what would be a reasonable estimate for its after-tax cost of debt (rounded to two decimal places)? (Note: Round your YTM rate to two decimal place.)
a. 3.53%
b. 3.38%
c. 2.35%
d. 2.94%

Answers

Answer:

d. 2.94%

Explanation:

First, Calculate the Yield to maturity of the bond using the following formula

Use the following formula to calculate the YTM

P = [ C x ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n ) / r ] + [ F / ( 1 + r )^n ]

Where

F = Face value = $1,000

P = Price = $1,495.56

C = Coupon payment = Face value x Coupon rate = $1,000 x 10% = $100

n = numbers of periods = Numbers of years to maturity = 10 years

r = YTM = ?

Placing values in the formula

$1,495.56 = [ $100 x ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-10 ) / r ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + r )^10 ]

r = 3.916%

Now calculate the after-tax cost of debt

After-tax cost of debt = YTM x ( 1 - Tax rate )

After-tax cost of debt = 3.916% x ( 1 - 25% )

After-tax cost of debt = 2.937%

After-tax cost of debt = 2.94%

Sweet Treats common stock is currently priced at $17.15 a share. The company just paid $1.22 per share as its annual dividend. The dividends have been increasing by 2.4 percent annually and are expected to continue doing the same. What is this firm's cost of equity

Answers

Answer:

9.68 percent

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the firm's cost of equity

Using this formula

Cost of equity=[(Annual dividend×Increase in dividends×/Current price of common stock]+Dividends

Let plug in the formula

Cost of equity=[($1.22 × 1.024)/$17.15] + 0.024

Cost of equity=($1.24928/$17.15)+0.024

Cost of equity=0.0728+0.024

Cost of equity=0.0968*100

Cost of equity=9.68 percent

Therefore the firm's cost of equity is 9.68 percent

With so many workers habituated to using mobile devices for so much of their work, should company management develop apps for influencing subordinates? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

This is not a yes or no answer.

The action of leadership/management would depend on their assessment of the impact of the habit on the results being delivered by the workers.

The questions to ask are:

Does the use of the mobile phone for their work reduce or increase productivity?Does what are the advantages? are there disadvantages?What would developing an app achieve for management?

Explanation:

In trying to influence workers who are already habituated or accustomed to a particular way of doing things, it is best practice to study the culture and establish what its advantages are. This can then be compared to its demerits. If the demerits clearly and consistently present risks that make of no relevance the advantages, the leader(s) must move to correct such a risk.

So assuming that using mobile phones makes ICT risks (such as loss of company data, loss of company data, risk of unauthorised access etc) even more pronounced, whether or not the app is the best solution will depend on the total cost of that solution to the company weighed against other options.

Other options could simply be

- looking for an already existing app

- banning the using of mobile phone for office work using etc

- re-establishing the use of laptops as the preferred work tool

In any of the above scenarios, the leadership will succeed in influencing its workers positively if it:

plays its part well as a cultural shift role modelbecomes an arbiter of the policies modifying changes affecting work styleencourages the new workstyle by rewarding those that embrace it openly manage change by ensuring that there is a training platform that helps ease the transition into the new work style.

The quantity demanded of cereal increased from 1,350 to 1,700 when the price of milk decreased from $2.05 to $1.65. What is the estimated cross-price elasticity of demand for cereal

Answers

Answer:

-1.33

Explanation:

Cross price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded of good A to changes in price of good B.

If cross price elasticity of demand is positive, it means that the goods are -substitute goods.

Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good.

If the cross-price elasticity is negative, it means that the goods are complementary goods.

Complementary goods are goods that are consumed together

Cross Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded of good A / percentage change in price of good B

percentage change in quantity demanded of good = (1700/ 1350) - 1 = 0.259

percentage change in price = (1.65 / 2.05) - 1 = -0.195

0.259 / -0.195 = -1.33

4. Cost of goods sold under LIFO = F. $9,020

5. Cost of ending inventory under LIFO = A. $3,300

6. Cost of goods sold under weighted average = E. $8,484

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Date     Description               Units   Unit Cost    Total

May 1    Beginning inventory  250      $8             $2,000

May 14  Purchase                    800    $10                8,000

May 20 Purchase                      60    $13                   780

May 28 Sales                           840            $28

May 28 Ending inventory       380

Sales revenue = $23,520 (840 * $28)

FIFO:

Cost of goods sold = $7,900 (250 * $8 + 590 * $10)

Ending inventory = $4,420 ($12,320 - $7,900)

LIFO:

Ending inventory = $3,300 ($250 * $8 + 130 * $10)

Cost of goods sold = $9,020 (12,320 - $3,300)

Weighted average costs:

Cost of goods available for sale = $12,320

Total units available for sale = 1,220

Unit cost of goods = $10.10 ($12,320/1,220)

Cost of goods sold = $8,484 (840 * $10.10)

I am buying a firm with an expected perpetual cash flow of $1,000 but am unsure of its risk. If I think the beta of the firm is 0, when the beta is really 1, how much more will I offer for the firm than it is truly worth? Assume the risk-free rate is 4% and the expected rate of return on the market is 10%. (Input the amount as a positive value.)

Answers

Answer:

$15,000

Explanation:

Value of a perpetuality = cash flow / r

According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)

4 + 0 (10 - 4) = 4

1,000/ 0.04 = 25,000

On January 1, Able Company purchased equipment costing $135,000 with an estimated salvage value of $10,500, and an estimated useful life of five years. Using the straight-line method, what is the amount that should be recorded as depreciation on December 31?
a. $135,000
b. $24.900
c. $124,500
d. $27,000

Answers

Answer:

Depreciation = $24900

Explanation:

Below is the calculation of depreciation:

Cost of equipment = $135000

Salvage value = $10500

Useful life = 5 years

Depreciation = (Cost of machine - salvage value) / useful life

Depreciation = (135000 - 10500) / 5  

Depreciation = $24900

Marlow Company purchased a point of sale system on January 1 for $6,500. This system has a useful life of 5 years and a salvage value of $950. What would be the depreciation expense for the second year of its useful life using the double-declining-balance method

Answers

Answer:

$1,560

Explanation:

The computation of the depreciation expense for the second year of its useful life is shown below:

First depreciation rate is

= 1 ÷ 5 ×2

= 40%

Now the depreciation expense for one year is

= 40% of $6,500

= $2,600

Now the depreciation expense for the second year is

= ($6,500 - $2,600) ×40%

= $1,560

Select a commercial or public service announcement that uses an emotional appeal.

A public service announcement that shows the aftermath of environmental pollution

Using the information in this section, how would you characterize the way it persuades listeners with emotion?

When the general public feels guilty about not having the ability to try to do something about environmental degradation, there'll be a change from the utilization of inorganic to the use of organic materials. When companies that pollute the environment are charged or closed down, and when the people resort to planting more trees.

Is it effective in persuading you as a listener?

Yes.

Why or why not?

It is very effective in persuading because the listeners put themselves in the situation and feel the effect of not taking care of the environment.

Discuss your findings with your classmates.

When people feel guilty for not taking care of the environment, they're going to take social action aimed toward correcting things. The people imagine how the planet is going to be like 50 years from now and picture how their children and grandchildren will survive. they're therefore compelled to try to do something so on contribute to environmental protection and to support the ecology.

1. A time study analyst timed an assembly operation for 30 cycles, and then computed the average time per cycle, which was 18.75 minutes. The analyst assigned a performance rating of .96, and decided that an appropriate allowance was 15%. Assume the allowance factor is based on the workday. Determine the following: observed time (OT), the normal time (NT), and the standard time (ST)

Answers

Answer:

1. observed time = 18.75 minutes.

2. Normal time = 18 minutes

3. Standard time = 21.17 minutes

Explanation:

1. The observed time will be equal to the average time per cycle, which was given in the question as 18.75 min. Therefore, observed time = 18.75 minutes.

2. The normal time will be:

= Average Time x Performance Rating

= 18.75 x 0.96

= 18 minutes

3. The standard time will be:

= Normal time × 1/(1 - 15%)

= Normal time × 1/(1 - 0.15)

= 18 × 1/0.85

= 18 × 1.176

= 21.17 minutes

Corporations differ from partnerships and other forms of business association in two ways. One of these is that:________.
a. they are regulated by the Federal Trade Commission.
b. they are formed simply by an agreement entered into among their members.
c. they must be publicly registered or in some way officially acknowledged by the law.
d. their shareholders are entitled to their share of the company's profits as soon as they are ascertained or determined.

Answers

Answer: c. they must be publicly registered or in some way officially acknowledged by the law.

Explanation:

Corporations tend to have many shareholders who would get hurt if the company fails and for this reason they are regulated by the law. They must be publicly registered to allow people to purchase and sell shares and they must have the official acknowledgement of the law.

The formation of a corporation can be complicated and require a relatively high number of legal processes and corporations are not regulated by the Federal Trade Commission.

Also, even though shareholders are technically entitled to the company's profits, they don't get to collect it immediately because the company needs money to function and grow.
