Answer:
Explanation:
cost of making in-house
Variable cost = 1.95 * 65,000 = 126,750
Related fixed cost = 75,000
Unavoidable fixed cost= 62,000
Total cost of manufacturing = 263,750.
cost of buying
Unit cost = 3.25*65,000 = 211,250
Unavoidable fixed cost = 62,000
Total cost of buying = 273,250 .
Cost of buying is higher than the cost of making
Incremental cost buying = 273,250-263,250 = 9,500
Recommendation
Gilberto should manufacture in - house instead of buying.
On january 1, 2017, finch company issued $89,000 of five-year, 8% bonds when the market interest rate was 12%. the issue price of the bonds was $73,000. finch uses the effective-interest method of amortization for bond discount. semiannual interest payments are made on june 30 and december 31 of each year. how much interest expense will be recorded when the first interest payment is made? (round your answer to the nearest dollar number.)
Answer:
$4,380
Explanation:
The calculation of the interest expense recorded in the first year is given below:
= Issued price of the bond × market interest rate ÷ semi annual period
= $73,000 × 12% ÷ 2
= $73,000 × 6%
= $4,380
Therefore, the interest expense would be recorded when the interest payment is made is $4,380
We simply used the above formula
Wohlers Co. considers a project that will require an initial investment of 5 million. It has a target capital structure of 30% debt, 5% preferred stock, and 65% common equity. Wholers Co. has outstanding 20-year noncallable bonds with a face value of $1,000. These bonds have a current market price of $1,181.96 and an annual coupon rate of 13%. The company faces a tax rate of 40%, and can sell shares of preferred stock that pay an annual dividend of $7.50 at a price of $89.25 per share. The company's common stock is currently selling for $22.35 per share and pays a dividend of $2.45 today. The common stock's growth rate is a constant rate of 9.2%. What will be the WACC for the project
Answer:
WACC = 16.18%
Explanation:
cost of equity (Re):
P₀ = Div₁ / (Re - g)
$22.35 = ($2.45 x 1.092) / (Re - 9.2%)
$22.35 = $2.6754 / (Re - 9.2%)
Re - 9.2% = $2.6754 / $22.35 = 11.97%
Re = 11.97% + 9.2% = 21.17%
after tax cost of debt:
YTM = {130 + [(1,000 - $1,181.96)/ 20]} / [(1,000 + $1,181.96)/ 2] = 120.902 / 1,090.98 = 11.08%
after tax cost of debt = 11.08% x (1 - tax rate) = 11.08% x 0.6 = 6.65%
cost of preferred stocks = $7.50 / $89.25 = 8.40%
WACC = (0.65 x 21.17%) + (0.05 x 8.4%) + (0.3 x 6.65%) = 13.76% + 0.42% + 2% = 16.18%
ADAP Advisers is offered a large block of ACME stock (a NYSE-listed issue) by an institutional investor at a 20% discount to the current market price, if ADAP Advisers is willing to buy the block that day. Which statement is TRUE if ADAP purchases the block for its own account rather than for its customers
Options :
A. This action is prohibited without exception, since ADAP Advisers is benefiting at the expense of its customers
B. This action is permitted if ADAP Advisers rebates any profit that it earns to its customers when it sells the block
C. This action is permitted if the purchased stock is not a suitable investment for ADAP's customers
D. This action is permitted if the block is purchased in the Third Market during the hours that the NYSE is closed

Explanation: ADAP being a professional in the aspect of advisory investment, have a legal and ethical responsibility or obligation called fiduciary duties to their clients, both buyers and sellers. Therefore it is always very important to keep this at the forefront of their dealings in other to avoid soiling their reputation and integrity. Therefore, even though the stock offered to ADAP advisers is at substantial discount, ADAP advisers must ensure that the stock is a suitable investment for it's customers before offering it to them.
The fact that ADAP purchased the stick on it's own account may reasonably infer that the stick is not a suitable investment for it's customers.

Explain the concept of an opportunity cost with an appropriate example
Answer:
Explanation:
Opportunity cost is an economics tool that is useful in the process of making a choice of goods and services in order to ensure that scarce resources are used efficiently.
The opportunity cost of a product or service is the name given to an income that could be earned when such product or service is put to an alternative use.
It can also be described as the cost of the alternative forgone to achieve a particular product or service
For an example , if a student decides to give up on watching a movie to study for his exam , the opportunity cost of the exam is the cost and pleasure related to the movie
"A customer buys 300 shares of ABC at $40, depositing the Regulation T requirement on the 3rd business day after trade date. He holds the position for two months, during which $100 of interest is charged on the debit balance. What is the adjusted debit balance at the end of the two month period?"
Answer:
Explanation:
Given the following :
Number of shares = 300
Cost per share = $40
Interest charge = $100
Total cost of shares = (number of shares * purchase price)
Total cost of shares = 300 * $40 = $12000
The regulation T says an investor cannot borrow more than 50% of the purchase price.
Therefore, 50% of shares cost :
(50/100) * $12,000
0.5 * $12,000
= $6000
Therefore, Adjusted debit balance :
$6000 + $100 = $6,100
A theater group made appearances in two cities. The hotel charge before tax in the second city was $500 lower than in the first. The tax in the first city was 8%, and the tax in the second city was 8.5%. The total hotel tax paid for the two cities was $823.75. How much was the hotel charge in each city before tax?
Answer:
Hotel charge in city 1= $5,250
Hotel charge in city 2= $4,750
Explanation:
A theater group made an appearance in two cities.
Let x represent the amount charged in the first city
Let y represent the amount charged in the second city
The hotel charge before tax in the first city is $500 lower than the second city
y= x-500......equation 1
The tax in the first city is 8%
= 8/100
= 0.08
The tax in the second city is 8.5%
= 8.5/100
= 0.085
0.08x + 0.085y= 823.75.........equation 2
Substitute (x-500) for y in equation 2
0.08x + 0.085(x-500)= 823.75
0.08x + 0.085x - 42.5= 823.75
Collect the like terms
0.08x + 0.085x= 823.75+42.5
0.165x= 866.25
x= 866.25/0.165
x = 5,250
Substitute 5250 for x in equation 1
y= x-500
y= 5,250-500
y= 4,750
Hence the hotel charge in city 1 is $5,250 and the hotel charge in city 2 is $4,750

Answer:
b. $4,300,000 $1,800,000
Explanation:
Calculation for what Osgood's December 31, 2021, balance sheet and the 2021 income statement would show
First step is to find the Loss on investments using this formula
Income statement Loss on investments =Face value municipal bonds-Fair value
Let plug in the formula
Income statement Loss on investments=6,100,000-4,300,000
Income statement Loss on investments= $1,800,000
Second step is to find the investment in bonds
Based on the information given we were told that On December 31, 2021, the bonds had a Fair value of the amount of $4,300,000 which simply means that the Fair value amount of $4,300,000 will be the Investment in municipal bonds.
Therefore the Income statement Loss on investments will be $1,800,000 while Investment in municipal bonds will be $4,300,000.
(I) Countries with more economic freedom during the past quarter of a century had a lower average per capita GDP.(II) Countries with more economic freedom during the past quarter of a century generally achieved higher rates of economic growth.Question 40 options:
Answer:
I. False
II. True
Explanation:
Economic freedom refers to the human right to own and control private property and decide how your labor should be used. When Economic freedom exists, people are able to contribute freely to the economy in a way that they prefer in a stable environment that supports their ventures.
Evidence has shown that in countries where people have the liberty to engage in business as they see fit, the Economies grew faster and had a higher average GDP per capita than countries that did not.
This is why developed countries (usually have higher economic freedom) are better off than a lot of developing countries where several factors such as corruption hinder economic freedom.
an object travels 16 metre in 4 seconds and then another 16 metre in 2second what is the average speed of the object
Answer:
6m/s
Explanation:
Given the information :
an object travels 16 metre in 4 seconds and then another 16 metre in 2second.
what is the average speed of the object?
First portion of travel:
Distance = 16 meters
Time = 4 seconds
Second portion:
Distance = 16 meters
Time = 2 seconds
Speed is calculated as the proportion of distance traveled to the time taken.
Speed = distance / time
First portion :
Speed attained
Distance / time = speed
16 meters / 4 seconds = 4m/s
Second portion:
Speed attained
Distance / time = speed
16 meters / 2 seconds = 8m/s
Average speed :
(first portion + second portion) / 2
(4m/s + 8m/s) / 2
12m/s ÷ 2
= 6m/s

In a Cournot market with two firms, the inverse market demand curve is P = 20 – 0.5Q, where Q = q1 + q2. (Firm 1's output = q1; Firm 2's output = q2.) If Firm 2 produces 20 units of output, Firm 1's residual marginal revenue curve is depicted in:
Answer:
MR = 10 – 1q1.
Explanation:
Demand function, P = 20 – 0.5Q
Q = q1 + q2
Now insert Q in the P = 20 – 0.5Q.
P = 20 – 0.5 (q1 + q2)
We have the value of q2 = 20.
P = 20 – 0.5 (q1 + q2)
P = 20 – 0.5 (q1 + 20)
P = 20 – 0.5q1 – 10
P = 10 – 0.5q1
Total revenue of firm 1, TR = Pq1
TR = 10q1 – (0.5q1)^2
Now MR is the differentiation of TR. So the MR after differentiation if TR of firm 1 is:
MR = 10 – 1q1
Cole is refinishing an antique china cabinet and has already spent $180 on the restoration. He expects to be able to sell the cabinet for $360. Cole discovers that he needs to do an additional $200 worth of work to make the cabinet worth $360 to potential buyers. He could also sell the cabinet now, without completing the additional work, for $100. What should Cole do
Answer:
Cole should complete the additional work and sell the cabinet for $360.
Explanation:
If Cole sells the cabinet now for $100 and taken into account that he has already spent $180, this means that:
$100-$180= -$80
He would be losing $80.
On the other side, if he completes the additional work, he would sell the cabinet $360. However, his expenses would be:
$180+$200= $380
Now, you have to subtract the costs from the selling price:
$360-$380= -$20
This means that he would lose $20.
According to that, Cole should complete the additional work because he would be lose less money.

Explanation:
You are going to receive $80 at the end of each year for the next 12 years. If you invest each of those amounts at 12%, then what amount of money will you have at the end of the 12th year
Answer:
FV= $1,930.65
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cash flow= $80 a year
Number of periods= 12 years
Interest rate= 12% compounded annually
To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
FV= {80[(1.12^12) - 1]} / 0.12
FV= $1,930.65

A company supervisor asks for volunteers from the first shift to help assemble a new binding machine that must be on-line within the next 24 hours. Grady lifts his chin and his shoulders, nods, and says, "I can do it." In the social cognitive perspective of Albert Bandura, Grady has appraised a desired outcome through self-evaluated
A. competencies.
B. emotions.
C. strategies.
D. expectancies.
Answer:
The correct answer is the option D: Expectancies.
Explanation:
To begin with, in this situation where the employee name as Grady has appraised a desired outcome through self-evaluation is because of the expectancies that the employee has over himself regarding the job that is being asked from his superiors and that because he knows that completing the volenteered task without help will show to his employer that he has great courage and force of will to do the tasks that are not even obligated. So that will help understand why Grady decides to do it because of the expectancies he has over the situation.
Answer:
A. competencies.
Explanation:
Competencies are self-evaluations that we bring to a situation. When we think we can do something, we’re more likely to try it than when we don’t think we’ll succeed. Competencies in math, tennis, socializing, or any other field come from experiences of prior success that act as reinforcers.

Bonds with detachable stock warrants were issued by Flack Co. Immediately after issue the aggregate market value of the bonds and the warrants exceeds the proceeds. Is the portion of the proceeds allocated to the warrants less than their market value, and is that amount recorded as contributed capital
Answer: Yes
Explanation: Bonds with detachable stock warrants could be explained as bonds which gives the holder an added offer of being able to purchase a certain asset a a specified price at a certain time. According to the scenario above, the income generated from the Issuance of the bond falls below the aggregate market value of the bond, In this case, the portion of the proceed allocated to the warrant will be less than their market value which is largely due to the impact of the shortfall in the proceed generated from Issuance of the bond. Due to the shortfall in the allocated proceed, the share of proceed applied to the warrant will be noted as outstanding in the detachable stock warrant.

The government decides to increase its expenditures by $350. The multiplier in this economy is 4 and the tax rate is 22 percent. The net effect of this expansionary fiscal policy is to: Group of answer choices
Answer:
Increase the budget shortage by $42
Explanation:
The government decides to increase expenditure by $350
The multiplier in the income is 4
The tax rate is 22%
= 22/100
= 0.22
The first step is to calculate the increase in income
= $350×4
= 1,400
The tax revenue which will be derived from the new income can be calculated as follows
= 0.22×1,400
= 308
Therefore, the net effect can be calculated as follows
Net effect= $350-$308
= $42
Hence the net effect of this expansionary fiscal policy is to make an increase in the budget shortage by $42
Many gluten-free food options are found on the store shelves in the United States, but they are scarcely available in international markets. Given the increasing awareness of a healthy lifestyle, such products satisfy an unmet need. Therefore, a product such as gluten-free food in international markets:_________.
