Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

To reach full employment (reduce inflationary gap), government spending must fall by $8 million.

Explanation:

Multiplier = 1 / (1 - mpc) = 1 / (1 - 0.8) = 5

Output gap = Current GDP - Potential GDP = $100 - $60 = $40 million

Amount of change in government expenditure needed = Output gap / mpc = $40 / 5 = $8 million

Since the Potential GDP is less than the Current GDP, this implies that the government spending must fall by $8 million to reach full employment.

Therefore, to reach full employment (reduce inflationary gap), government spending must fall by $8 million.

You have just started a new job and plan to save $5,200 per year for 36 years until you retire. You will make your first deposit in one year. How much will you have when you retire if you earn an annual interest rate of 9.54 percent?
a. $1,331,411.17
b. $1,394,509.68
c. $1,346,423.14
d. $1,268,312.65
e. $1,333,878.83

Answers

Answer:

$1,394,509.68

Explanation:

Savings amount = $5200

Period = 36 years

Interest = 9.54 percent

We solve for the future value of the annuity

= $5200[(1+0.0954)³⁶-1/0.0954]

= 5200 x [1.0954³⁶-1/0.0954]

= 5200 x 268.1749

= 1,394,509.681 dollars

Therefore after retirement and at an interest rate of 9.54 percent, you would be earning 1,394,509.681 dollars.

Waggoner Company has a cash balance of $44,000 on April 1. The company is required to maintain a cash balance of $25,000. During April expected cash receipts are $174,000. Expected cash disbursements during the month total $200,800. During April the company will need to borrow:____.
a. $2,500.b. $3,500.c. $4,000.d. $6,000.

Answers

Answer: $7,800

Explanation:

The amount that the company needs to borrow can be found using the formula:

= Opening balance + Cash receipts - Cash to be maintained - Cash disbursement

= 44,000 + 174,000 - 25,000 - 200,800

= -$7,800

Amount to be borrowed is the shortfall of $7,800

Snack food vendors and beer distributors earn some monopoly profits in their local markets but see them slowly erode from various new substitutes. When California voted on legalizing marijuana, which side would you think that California beer distributors were on

Answers

Answer: Opposing side

Explanation:

Substitutes to the products offered by monopolies are frowned upon by monopolies because it means that they cannot raise prices whenever they want anymore because people could simply switch to the substitutes.

Substitutes therefore reduce the power of monopolies. Marijuana is a substitute to beer as a recreational product so beer companies would be opposed to it being legalized as it would pose a threat to whatever dominance they have in the recreational sector.

Compute straight-line depreciation on the building at the end of one year, assuming an estimated 10-year useful life and a $16,000 estimated residual value. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)What should be the book value of (a) the land and (b) the building at the end of year 2

Answers

Answer:

Missing word "Bridge City Consulting bought a building and the land on which it is located for $120,000 cash. The land is estimated to represent 70 percent of the purchase price. The company paid $10,000 for building renovations before it was ready for use."

Total Cost of Land and Building (100%) = $120,000

Cost of Land (70%) = $84,000

Cost of Building (30%) = $36,000

Cost of Building Renovations = $10,000

Total Cost of Building = $36,000 + $10,000

Total Cost of Building = $46,000

1. Annual Depreciation(Year End Depreciation) = (Cost of Building - Residual Value)/ Number of Year

Annual Depreciation = $46,000 - $16,000 / 10

Annual Depreciation = $30,000 / 10

Annual Depreciation = $3,000

2. Book Value of Land at the end of two years = $84,000

Book Value of Building at the end of two years = $46,000 - ($3,000*2 year) = $46,000 - $6,000 = $40,000

Hence, Book Value of Land and Building at the end of two year is = $84,000 + $40,000 = $124,000

Explanation:

Notes payable are referred to as the written agreements whereby one party agrees to pay the other party a certain amount of money.

It should be noted that on the balance sheet, notes payable will appear as liabilities. In a situation when the amount is due within a year, then it's considered to be current liabilities while it's regarded as a long-term liability when it's more than a year,

economic welfare?

A)Real GDP omits measures of political freedom.
b) Real GDP does not consider the value of people's leisure time.
c) Real GDP does not include the underground economy.
D) Real GDP omits household production.

Answers

Answer:

A)Real GDP omits measures of political freedom.

Explanation:

The Real Gross Domestic Product is a measure of all the goods produced in an economy within a year but with changes in price levels triggered by inflation factored in. Political freedom does not affect economic freedom. People may be restricted politically but still, go about their normal economic activities.

Because the Real GDP basically focuses on transactions done in the markets, it might not accurately measure the growth rate because some people conduct illegal businesses underground that are not captured by the government, while some produce their goods at home. Also, leisure time is not factored and it is important because an increase in leisure time will affect time spent in activities that improve the economy.

A company projects an increase in net income of $108000 each year for the next five years if it invests $900000 in new equipment. The equipment has a 5-year life and an estimated salvage value of $300000. What is the annual rate of return on this investment?
a. 20.5%
b. 31.0%
c. 30.0%
d. 30.8%

Answers

Answer:

18 %

Explanation:

Annual rate of return on this investment = annual profit / average investment x 100

where,

annual profit = $108000

average investment = (initial cost + salvage value) ÷ 2

                                 = ($900000 + $300000) ÷ 2

                                 = $600,000

therefore,

annual rate of return on this investment = $108000 / $600,000 x 100

                                                                   = 18 %

Truck-Or-Treat specializes in leasing trucks to delivery companies. It is considering adding 25 more trucks to its available stock. Doing so will not change the risk of the company's business. The trucks depreciate over five years under the straight-line depreciation method, all the way to zero. Truck-Or-Treat believes that these newly added trucks would be able to bring the company $220,000 in annual earnings before taxes and depreciation (i.e., sales revenue minus costs of goods sold) for five years. The company is unlevered. It is in 21 percent tax rate bracket. The required annual rate of return on Truck-Or-Treat's unlevered equity is 15 percent. The risk-free rate, e.g., the Treasury bill rate, is 6 percent per year.

Required:
Calculate the maximum price that Truck-or-Treat should be willing to pay for the purchase of the new trucks if it remains an unlevered company. (In other words, what should be the "initial investment" of this unlevered truck project such that the project's NPV equals $0?

Answers

Answer:

The maximum price that Truck-or-Treat should be willing to pay for the purchase of the new trucks if it remains an unlevered company is $510,702.49.

Explanation:

Let:

x = Maximum price for the new truck = initial investment = ?

AEBTD = Annual earnings before taxes and depreciation = $220,000

T = Tax rate = 21%, or 0.21

n = Number of years = 5

Since the it is assumed that Truck-or-Treat remains an unlevered company, this implies the required annual rate of return on Truck-Or-Treat's unlevered equity of 15 percent is the relevant rate of return to use.

Therefore, we have:

r = required annual rate of return = 15%, or 0.15

D = Annual depreciation = Maximum price for the new truck / Number of useful years = x / 5 = 0.2x

P = Annual cash flow = ((AEDTD - D) * (1 - T)) + D = ((220000 - 0.2x) * (1 - 0.21)) + 0.2x = ((220000 - 0.2x) * 0.79) + 0.2x = 173,800 - 0.158x + 0.2x = 173,800 - 0.042x

Using the formula for calculating the present value (PV) of an ordinary annuity, we have:

PVP = Present value of annual cash flow = P * ((1 - (1/(1 + r))^n) / r) = (173,800 - 0.042x) * ((1 - (1/(1 + 0.15))^5) / 0.15) = (173,800 - 0.042x) * 3.3521550980114 = 582,604.56 - 0.140790514116479x

For the NPV of this unlevered truck project to be equal to $0, we must have:

x = PVP

That is:

x = 582,604.56 - 0.140790514116479x

Solving for x, we have:

x + 0.140790514116479x = 582,604.56

x(1 + 0.140790514116479) = 582,604.56

x1.140790514116479 = 582,604.56

x = 582,604.56 / 1.140790514116479 = $510,702.49

Therefore, the maximum price that Truck-or-Treat should be willing to pay for the purchase of the new trucks if it remains an unlevered company is $510,702.49.

ABC and XYZ are all-equity firms. ABC has 1,750 shares outstanding at a market price of $20 a share while XYZ has 2,500 shares outstanding at a price of $28 a share. ABC is acquiring XYZ for $75,000 in cash. The incremental value of the acquisition is $8,000. What is the net present value of acquiring XYZ to ABC

Answers

Answer:

the net present value is -$32,000

Explanation:

The computation of the net present value is shown below;

= (Number of oustanding shares × market price per share) + incremental value of acquisition - acquiring value in cash

= (1,750 × $20) + $8,000 - $75,000

= $43,000 - $75,000

= -$32,000

Hence, the net present value is -$32,000

East Valve Distributors distributes industrial valves and control devices. The Eastern control device has an annual demand of 9,375 units and sells for $100 per unit. The cost of ordering is $40 per order and the average carrying cost per unit per year is $0.75. Determine the economic order quantity.

Answers

Answer:

1000

Explanation:

Given:

Annual DEMAND, D = 9375

Holding cost, H = 0.75

Cost per order, S = 40

The Economic order quantity :

EOQ = √[(2 * D * S) / H]

EOQ = √[(2 * 9375 * 40) / 0.75]

EOQ = √[(750000) / 0.75]

EOQ = √1000000

EOQ = 1000

Suppose an American buys stock issued by an Argentinian corporation. The Argentinian firm uses the proceeds from the sale to build a new office complex. This is an example of foreign investment in Argentina. Which of the following policies are consistent with the goal of increasing productivity and growth in developing countries?
a. Provide tax breaks and patents for firms that pursue research and development in health and sciences.
b. Give families cash payments on the condition that their children show up for school and medical exams.
c. Increase taxes on income from savings.
d. Protect property rights and enforce contracts.

Answers

Answer:

        a. Foreign Portfolio Investment

        b. a. Provide tax breaks and patents for firms that pursue research and development in health and sciences.  

            d. Protect property rights and enforce contracts.

Explanation:

This is an example of Foreign Portfolio Investment (FPI). Foreign portfolio investment is when an entity from a foreign country invests in another country by buying the shares of a company in the local country. The American company bought shares in Argentina so the qualifies as FPI.

To increase productivity companies that are pursuing research should be given patents and tax breaks. The tax breaks will enable them have more money to reinvest into the research and the patent will provide incentive to them to continue the research knowing full well that they will be compensated by being the only ones to be able to use the technology invented for some time.

Also protecting property rights and enforcing contracts encourages investment in a country because people will be more trusting of making a return from business dealings. Higher investment leads to more productivity and growth.
