Garcia Ltd. is trying to estimate its cost of common equity, and it has the following information. The firm has a beta of 0.90, the before-tax cost of the firm's debt is 7.75%, and the firm estimates that the risk-free rate is 5% while the current market return is 13%. The firm pays dividends annually and expects dividends to grow at a constant rate of 5% indefinitely. The most recent dividend per share, paid yesterday, is $2.00. Currently, the firm's stock sells for $35.00 per share, but if the firm issues new shares, it will net $33.15 per share. Finally, the firm has a marginal tax rate of 34%. The cost of new common stock is ___________.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Cost of common stock = 11.33%

Explanation:

The cost of common stock can be determined using the dividend valuation model.

According to the dividend valuation, the value of a stock is the present value of expected future dividends discounted at the required rate of return.

The model can me modified to determined the cost of equity having flotation cost as follows:

Cost of equity = D(1+r )/P(1-f) + g

d- dividend, p- price of stock , f - flotation cost , - g- growth rate  

Cost of common stock =

D- 2.00, g- 5%, Price net flotation cost = $33.15

Ke = 2.00 × (1.05)/33.15)  + 0.05 × 100

= 11.33%

Cost of common stock = 11.33%

Suppose the economy is in long-run equilibrium. In a short span of time, there is a sharp rise in the stock market, an increase in government purchases, an increase in the money supply and a decline in the value of the dollar. In the short run a. the price level and real GDP will both rise. b. the price level and real GDP will both fall. c. neither the price leave nor real GDP will change. d. All of the above are possible.

Answers

Answer:

All of the above are possible.

Explanation:

Discussions here center on equilibrium of an economy in a long run, and here after the government activities, their is a decline in dollar value; therefore in the short run, the price level and real GDP will both rise in as much as the price level and real GDP will also both fall. It is also gathered that neither the price leave nor real GDP will change.

The transition from the short run to the long run may be done by considering some short run equilibrium that is also a long run equilibrium as to supply and demand, then comparing that state against a new short run and long run equilibrium state from a change that disturbs equilibrium, say in the sales tax rate, tracing out the short run adjustment first, then the long run adjustment.

The property appraisal district for Marin County has just installed new software to track residential market values for property tax computations. The manager wants to know the total equivalent cost of all future costs incurred when the three county judges agreed to purchase the software system. The system has an installation cost of $150,000 and an additional cost of $50,000 at year 10. The annual software maintenance cost is $5,000 for the first 4 years and $8,000 thereafter. If the new system will be used for the indefinite future, find the equivalent present value at a discount rate of 5%.

Answers

Answer:

Equivalent annual cost = $16,502.89

Explanation:

Equivalent annual cost = Present Value of cost / Annuity factor

Present value of cost:

PV of additional cost  =50,000 ×1.05^(-10)=30,695.66

PV of maintenance cost

First four years= 5,000×  (1-1.05^(-4))/0.05=17,729.75

From year 5 to infinity = (8,000/0.05)× 1.05^(-4)=131,632.39

PV of maintenance cost =  17,729.75  + 131,632.396= 149,362.14

PV of costs = 150,000 + 30,695.66 + 149,362.14= 330,057.8112

Annuity factor = 1/r = 1/0.05= 20

Equivalent annual cost = 330,057.8112 /20=$16,502.89

Equivalent annual cost = $16,502.89

The SP Corporation makes 42,000 motors to be used in the production of its sewing machines. The average cost per motor at this level of activity is: Direct materials $ 10.10 Direct labor $ 9.10 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 3.75 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 4.70 An outside supplier recently began producing a comparable motor that could be used in the sewing machine. The price offered to SP Corporation for this motor is $25.75. If SP Corporation decides not to make the motors, there would be no other use for the production facilities and none of the fixed manufacturing overhead cost could be avoided. Direct labor is a variable cost in this company. The annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of making the motors rather than buying them from the outside supplier would be:

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Analysis of the Make or Buy Decision - Making

Making Costs

Direct materials $ 10.10×42,000                                424,200

Direct labor $ 9.10×42,000                                        382,200

Variable manufacturing overhead $ 3.75×42,000    157,500

Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 4.70×42,000         197,400

Total                                                                             1,161,300

Buying Costs

Purchase Price $25.75×42,000                                1,801,500

Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 4.70×42,000         197,400

Total                                                                            1,998,900

It costs $837,600 more to Buy than to make.

Hence the annual financial advantage for the company as a result of making the motors rather than buying them from the outside supplier would be $837,600.

A company bought $950,000 of equipment with an expected life of 24 years and no residual value. After 20 years the company sold the equipment for $120,500. If the company uses straight-line depreciation and the indirect method is used to determine cash flows from operating activities, which of the following reflects how the sale of the equipment would be reported in the statement of cash flows?

a. $128,500 is recorded as a cash inflow from investing activities and $35,786 is added to convert net income to net cash flow provided by operating activities.
b. $128,500 is recorded as a cash inflow from investing activities and $35,786 is subtracted to convert net income to net cash flow provided by operating activities.
c. $128,500 is recorded as a cash inflow from operating activities.
d. $128,500 is recorded as a cash inflow from investing activities and no other sections of the statement are affected.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is Option A although the numbers in all the options are not correct. The appropriate answer is $120,500 is recorded as a cash inflow from investing activities and $37,833 is added to convert net income to net cash flow provided by operating activities.

Explanation:

Under straight-line method, depreciation expense is (cost - residual value) / No of years = ($950,000 - 0) / 24 years = $39,583.33 yearly depreciation expense.

Accumulated depreciation for 20 years = $39,583.33 x 20 = $791,666.67

Net book value (NBV) becomes $950,000 - $791,666.67 = $158,333.33

Gain or loss on disposal = Sales proceeds - NBV = $120,500 - $158,333 = $ 37,833 (loss)

The southern division of Pryto Corporation uses a part much like Part D in one of its products. The southern division can buy this part from an outside supplier for $78.25 per unit. However, the southern division could use Part D instead of this part that it purchases from outside suppliers. What's the most that the southern division would be willing to pay the western division for Product D

Answers

Answer: $78.25

Explanation:

The Southern Division is willing to pay $78.25 to an outside company for this part that it needs.

In the same vein, the maximum therefore that they would be willing to pay for the Western Division should be $78.25 as well because anything higher than that would constitute an Opportunity Cost loss.

They should go for the cheaper option and if buying from the Western Division exceeds the $78.25 then it is loss on their part. Western Division should charge the same or less.

Consider the oil-producing countries of A, B, and C. Each has a marginal cost of zero. World demand is given by Q = 1430 - P. Suppose the three countries form a cartel, and that none of them has an incentive to deviate from the cartel. By how many units lower is the total output of oil under the cartel relative to the Cournot solution?

Answers

Answer: 357.50

Explanation:

Under Cournot model that has three firms, each firm produces at

q = (1430 – 0)/((3+1)×1)

= 1430/4

= 357.5 units

Total output = 357.5 × 3

= 1072.5 units

Under cartel, the marginal revenue equals to the marginal cost.

MR = MC = 0

1430 – 2Q = 0

Q = 1430/2

Q = 715 units

Difference= 1072.5 units - 715 units

= 357.5 units

Hence the units are 357.50 units lower in cartel compared to Cournot.

Misty and John formed the MJ Partnership. Misty contributed $50,000 of cash in exchange for her 50% interest in the partnership capital and profits. During the first year of partnership operations, the following events occurred: the partnership had a net taxable income of $20,000; Misty received a distribution of $12,000 cash from the partnership; and Misty had a 50% share in the partnership's $60,000 of recourse liabilities on the last day of the partnership year. Misty's adjusted basis for her partnership interest at year end is:

Answers

Answer:

$78,000

Explanation:

The computation of interest at year end is shown below:-

Interest at year end = Cash contribution + Income of partnership + Share of partnership liabilities - Cash from the partnership

= $50,000 + $20,000 × 50% + $60,000 × 50% - $12,000

= $90,000 + $10,000 + $30,000 - $12,000

What is the company’s WACC? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

10.83%

Explanation:

The simplest way to determine the if we use the Gordon growth model for determining the company's stock price:

stock price = [dividend x (1 + growth rate)] / (WACC - growth rate)

dividend = $4.25g = 4.4%stock price = $69

WACC - g = [dividend x (1 + g] / price

WACC = {[dividend x (1 + g] / price} + g

WACC = {[$4.25 x (1 + 4.4%] / $69} + 4.4% = 0.1083 or 10.83%

Photon Technologies, Inc., a manufacturer of batteries for mobile phones, signed a contract with a large electronics manufacturer to produce three models of lithium-ion battery packs for a new line of phones. The contract calls for the following
Battery Pack Production Quantity
PT-100 200,000
PT-200 100,000
PT-300 150,000
Photon Technologies can manufacture the battery packs at manufacturing plants located in the Philippines and Mexico. The unit cost of the battery packs differs at the two plants because of differences in production equipment and wage rates. The unit costs for each battery pack at each manufacturing plant are as follows:
Plant
Product Philippines Mexico
PT-100 0.95 0.98
PT-200 1.34 0.98
PT-300 1.06 1.15
The PT-100 and PT-200 battery packs are produced using similar production equipment available at both plants. However, each plant has a limited capacity for the total number of PT-100 and PT-200 battery packs produced. The combined PT-100 and PT-200 production capacities are 175,000 units at the Philippines plant and 160,000 units at the Mexico plant. The PT-300 production capacities are 75,000 units at the Philippines plant and 100,000 units at the Mexico plant. The cost of shipping from the Philippines plant is $0.15 per unit, and the cost of shipping from the Mexico plant is 0.08 per unit.
(a) Develop a linear program that Photon Technologies can use to determine how many units of each battery pack to produce at each plant to minimize the total production and shipping cost associated with the new contract.

The management of Ballard MicroBrew is considering the purchase of an automated bottling machine for $74,000. The machine would replace an old piece of equipment that costs $19,000 per year to operate. The new machine would cost $9,000 per year to operate. The old machine currently in use could be sold now for a salvage value of $31,000. The new machine would have a useful life of 10 years with no salvage value. Required: 1. What is the annual depreciation expense associated with the new bottling machine

Answers

Answer:

$7,400 per year

Explanation:

Data provided for computing the annual depreciation expense is here below:-

Automated bottling machine = $74,000

Useful life = 10 years

The calculation of annual depreciation expense is given below:-

Annual depreciation expense = Automated bottling machine ÷ Useful life

= $74,000 ÷ 10

Therefore for computing the annual depreciation expense we simply divide the automated bottling machine by useful life.

Data concerning Pony Corporation's single product appear below: Per Unit Percent of Sales Selling price $ 200 100 % Variable expenses 40 20 % Contribution margin $ 160 80 % Fixed expenses are $531,000 per month. The company is currently selling 4,000 units per month. The marketing manager would like to cut the selling price by $14 and increase the advertising budget by $35,000 per month. The marketing manager predicts that these two changes would increase monthly sales by 500 units. What should be the overall effect on the company's monthly net operating income of this change

Answers

Answer:

$18,000

Explanation:

The computation of overall effect on the company's monthly net operating income is shown below:-

                                 Current                 Proposed

Sales                       $800,000               $837,000

                        (200 × 4000)     (200 - 14) × (4,000 + 500)

Variable expenses  $160,000             $180,000

                              (40 × 4000)  (40 × (4,000 + 500))

Contribution margin $640,000            $657,000

Fixed expenses     $531000                 $566,000

                                                  ($531,000 + $35,000)

Net operating

income                  $109,000                $91,000

Decrease in net operating income = Current - Proposed

= $109,000 - $91,000

= $18,000

So, for computing the overall effect on the company's monthly net operating income we simply applied the above formula.

One reason that businesspersons may find it difficult to comply with the law is because a. there are so many loopholes in the law. b. business ethicists give conflicting views on what constitutes ethical business behavior. c. gray areas in the law make it difficult to tell how the law will be applied to a specific business situation. d. businesspersons, as a general rule, do not take the time to learn about the laws governing their activities

Answers

Purchase of machinery                                  ($36)

Proceeds from sale of land                               90

Cash paid to acquire office equipment          (80)

Net cash outflows from investing activities  ($26)

Therefore, Arbon should report net cash outflows from investing activities of ($26).

Note that reacquired stock affects the financing section of the cash flows, while gain on sale of land and investment revenue received affect the operating section of the cash flows.

The Collins Company uses predetermined overhead rates to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs. The predetermined overhead rate is based on machine hours in Dept. A and labor cost in Dept. B. At the beginning of the year, the company made the following estimates: Dept A Dept B Direct labor cost $65,000 $42,000 Manufacturing overhead $91,000 $48,000 Direct labor-hours 8,000 10,000 Machine-hours 3,000 12,000 What predetermined overhead rates would be used in Dept A and Dept B, respectively

Answers

Answer:

Predetermined overhead rate for department A = 1.4

Predetermined overhead rate for department B = $4

Explanation:

The computation of predetermined overhead rates would be used in Dept A and Dept B, is shown below:-

The predetermined overhead rate for department A =  Manufacturing overhead ÷ Machine hours

= $91,000 ÷ $65,000

= 1.4

The predetermined overhead rate for department B =  Manufacturing overhead ÷ Machine hours

= $48,000 ÷ 12,000  hours

= $4

So, we have applied the above formula.

A law firm received $1600 cash for legal services to be rendered in the future. The full amount was credited to the liability account Unearned Service Revenue. If the legal services have been rendered at the end of the accounting period and no adjusting entry is made, this would cause:

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

In the first situation, the journal entry is

Cash Dr $1,600

      To Unearned revenue $1,600

(Being the unearned revenue is recorded)

For this we debited the cash as it increased the assets and credited the unearned revenue as it also increased the liabilities

The adjusting entry is

Unearned Service Revenue XXXXX

          To Service Revenue XXXXX

(Being the adjusting entry is recorded)

If this entry is not recorded than it would leads to understated of revenue and overstated of liabilities

Swifty Corporation is indebted to Blossom under a $1020000, 11%, three-year note dated December 31, 2019.

Answer:

Gain on disposal = $197,000

Restructuring gain = $212,200

Explanation:

We need to find the gain on disposal. Let's use:

Gain on disposal = fair value of land - cost of land.

Where,

Fair value = $920,000

Cost of land = $723,000

Therefore,

Gain on disposal = $920,000 - $723,000 = $197,000

Let's find the gain on restructuring.

Restructuring gain = Loan amount + Accured interest - fair value of land

Where,

Loan amount = $1,020,000

Accured interest = $112,200

Fair value of land = $920,000

Therefore,

Restructuring gain = $1,020,000 + $112,200 - $920,000 = $212,200

On its 2021 income statement Swifty should report as a result of the troubled debt restructuring...

Gain on disposal = $197,000

Restructuring gain = $212,200

g Birch Company normally produces and sells 48,000 units of RG-6 each month. The selling price is $26 per unit, variable costs are $17 per unit, fixed manufacturing overhead costs total $180,000 per month, and fixed selling costs total $40,000 per month. Employment-contract strikes in the companies that purchase the bulk of the RG-6 units have caused Birch Company’s sales to temporarily drop to only 9,000 units per month. Birch Company estimates that the strikes will last for two months, after which time sales of RG-6 should return to normal. Due to the current low level of sales, Birch Company is thinking about closing down its own plant during the strike, which would reduce its fixed manufacturing overhead costs by $43,000 per month and its fixed selling costs by 11%. Start-up costs at the end of the shutdown period would total $13,000. Because Birch Company uses Lean Production methods, no inventories are on hand. Required: 1. What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) if Birch closes its own plant for two months? 2. Should Birch close the plant for two months? 3. At what level of unit sales for the two-month period would Birch Company be indifferent between closing the plant or keeping it open?

Answers

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

(1) Product RG-6 yields a contribution margin of $10 per unit ($20 - $10 = $10). If the plant closes, this contribution margin will be lost on the 18,000 units (9,000 units per month * 2 months) that could have been sold during the two-month period. However, the company will be able to avoid certain fixed costs as a result of closing down. The analysis is:

                                                                        Amount ($)           Amount ($)

Contribution margin lost by closing the

plant for two months ($10 * 18,000 units)                                   (180,000)

Costs avoided by closing the plant for two months:  

Fixed manufacturing overhead cost ($41,000 * 2 months)82,000  

Fixed selling costs ($48,000 * 10% * 2months)                   9,600 91,600

Net disadvantage of closing, before start-up cost                       (88,400)

Add start-up costs                                                                              13,000

Disadvantage of closing the plant                                                   101,400

(2) No, the company should not close the plant; it should continue to operate at the reduced level of 9,000 units produced and sold each month. Closing will result in a $101,400 greater loss over the two-month period than if the company continues to operate.

(3)

                                                                                              Amount ($)

Cost avoided by closing the plant for two months               91,600

Less: start-up costs                                                                  (13,000)

Net avoidable costs                                                                 78,600

Units = Net avoidable cost / Contribution margin per unit

= $78,600 / $10 = 7,860 units

Minot Corporation is preparing its cash budget for August. The following information is available concerning its accounts receivable: Estimated credit sales for August $ 220,000 Actual credit sales for July $ 167,000 Estimated collections in August for credit sales in August 25 % Estimated collections in August for credit sales in July 70 % Estimated collections in August for credit sales prior to July $ 18,000 Estimated write-offs in August for uncollectible credit sales $ 8,000 Estimated provision for bad debts in August for credit sales in August $ 7,800 Required: What is the estimated amount of cash receipts from accounts receivable collections in August?

Answers

Answer:

$189,900

Explanation:

For computation of estimated amount of cash receipts from accounts receivable collections first we need to find out the credit sales in August and credit sales in July which is shown below:-

Credit sales in August = Estimated credit sales × Estimated collections in August for credit sales in August

= $220,000 × 25%

= $55,000

Credit sales in July = Actual credit sales × Estimated collections in August for credit sales in July

= $167,000 × 70%

= $116,900

Total estimated cash receipts from accounts receivable = Credit sales in August +Credit sales in July = Actual credit sales + Credit sales prior to July

= $55,000 + $116,900 + $18,000

= $189,900

Inventory 780,000 600,000 ____________ ___________ %
Total assets 3,220,000 2,800,000 __________ __________ %

Answers

Answer:

75000,25%;

18000, 30%.

420000, 15%.

Explanation:

From the question above we are given the following parameters Accounts receivable for year 2017 = $ 375,000,

Inventory for the year 2017 = 780,000 and the Total assets for the year 2017 = 3,220,000.

Accounts receivable for year 2016 = $ 300,000, inventory for the year 2016 = 600,000 and the Total assets for the year 2016 = 2,800,000.

Therefore, we have the following simple arithmetic(which is subtraction between the variables in the two years) to determine the solution to the question:

(375,000 - 300,000) = 75,000 = 25%(increase).

(780,000 - 600,000) = 180,000 = 30%(Increase).

(3,220,000 - 2,800,00) = 420,000 = 15%(increase).

Answer:

25%30%15%

Explanation:

Accounts receivables

December 31 2017 = $375000

December 31 2016 = $300000

difference = $75000 ( 25%)  { increase}

Inventory

December 31 2017 = 780000

December 31 2016 = 600000

difference = 180000 ( 30% ) { increase}

Total assets

December 31 2017 = 3220000

December 31 2016 = 2800000

difference = 420000 ( 15% ) { increase }

(Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

Total unitary cost= $50.4

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct materials $ 10.60 per unit

Direct labor $ 20.60 per unit

Variable overhead $ 10.60 per unit

Fixed overhead $ 223,600

Units produced 26,000 units

Under absorption costing, the unit product cost is calculated using the direct material, direct labor, and total unitary fixed overhead.

Fixed unitary overhead= 223,600/26,000= $8.6

Total unitary cost= 10.6 + 20.6 + 10.6 + 8.6

Total unitary cost= $50.4
