Akram owns a small farm. He employs 80 workers in the field and has recently hired a manager to help him manage the farm. The income of the business varies greatly during the year. The farm makes a small profit but Akram is ambitious. He wants to take over a neighbour’s farm and increase the range of crops he sells. He thinks that he needs long-term finance and plans to take out bank loan to pay for the takeover. He has already borrowed money to buy a new tractor. A friend has advised him to form a company and sell shares

Answers

Question Completion:

Requirement. Identity two types of short-term finance Akram could use when the farm income is low

Answer:

Akram's Farm

Akram's farm can make good use of the following short-term financing sources:

1. Akram's farm can use Accounts Payable to provide short-term trade finance when the farm buys farm inputs, equipment, and other supplies on credit.  The farm's Accounts Payable can provide interest-free trade loans by allowing the farm to take longer time to settle the suppliers.  But, the farm should not miss out on cash discounts - an important source of trade finance.

2. Akram's farm can generate finances by ensuring early collections of the  Accounts Receivable.  Akram's farm can also go ahead and borrow on the accounts receivable through short-term bank loans guaranteed on the accounts.  The farm can also factor the accounts receivable by selling them to factoring and finance houses for less.

Explanation:

Akram's farm is still a small farm that is not yet formed as a company.  The immediate concentration is growing the entity and starting the processes for changing its corporate status so that it can take advantage of the sources of finance available to companies.

Angie Pereira and Ferro Schwartz are employees of Free Star, Inc. In February 2019. Angie's gross pay was $6000, and Ferro's gross pay was $7400. All earnings are subject to FICA-OASDI Tax of 6.296 and FICA--Medicare Tax of 1.4596. Which of the following would be included in the entry to record the salaries expense for February?
A. a credit to Salaries Expense for 5830.80
B. a credit to FICA-OASDI Taxes Payable for $830.80
C. a debit to FICA-Medicare Taxes Payable for $830.80
D. a debit to Salaries Payable to employees for $830.80

Answers

Answer:

B. a credit to FICA-OASDI Taxes Payable for $830.80

Explanation:

Free Star, Inc. In February 2019.

Angie's gross pay was $6000,

Ferro's gross pay was $7400

Total gross pay $ 13400

FICA-OASDI Tax  6.296 %

$ 13400 * 6.2% = $ 830.80

The recording of the journal entry would require a debit to FICA tax and credit to FICA tax payable .

The FICa tax is 6.2 % which equals to $ 830.80 of the two gross pays.

All the other three options are incorrect.

The interest income received from older Industrial revenue bonds (IRB) may be taxable to the holder at regular income tax rates if the holder is the "substantial user" of the facility built with the proceeds of the issue because in the true sense it is only beneficial to the holder and not the larger community.

The following standards for variable manufacturing overhead have been established for a company that makes only one product: Standard hours per unit of output 5.2 hours Standard variable overhead rate $11.60 per hour The following data pertain to operations for the last month: Actual hours 2,500 hours Actual total variable manufacturing overhead cost $29,590 Actual output 150 units What is the variable overhead efficiency variance for the month?

Answers

Answer:

Variable overhead efficiency variance= $19,952 unfavorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard hours per unit of output 5.2 hours

Standard variable overhead rate $11.60 per hour

Actual hours 2,500 hours

Actual output of 150 units

To calculate the variable overhead efficiency variance, we need to use the following formula:

Variable overhead efficiency variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*Standard rate

Standard quantity= 5.2*150= 780

Variable overhead efficiency variance= (780 - 2,500)*11.6

Variable overhead efficiency variance= $19,952 unfavorable

Answers

Answer:

c.$27,284.90 unfavorable

Explanation:

Standard variable overhead rate                     =$27.00

Standard hours allowed per completed unit  =4.3

Actual production unit                                      =971

Actual variable overhead costs                       =$140,018

Variable factory overhead controllable variance = (Standard variable overhead rate * Standard hours allowed per completed unit * Actual production unit) - Actual variable overhead costs

Variable factory overhead controllable variance = ($27 * 4.3 * 971) - $140,018

Variable factory overhead controllable variance = $112,733.1 - $140,018

Variable factory overhead controllable variance = $27,284.9 (Unfavorable)

A customer buys 1,000 shares of XYZ at $60 in a margin account, regular way settlement. Two days after the trade, XYZ has dropped to $40. The minimum maintenance margin requirement is:

Answers

Answer:

$10,000

Explanation:

A customer buys 1,000 shares of XYZ

The shares are bought at $60 in a margin account

Two days after the price of XYZ drops to $40

The first step is to calculate the current market value

= 1,000 shares×$40

= $40,000

Therefore, the minimum maintenance margin requirement can be calculated as follows

= 25/100 × current market value

= 25/100 × 40,000

= 0.25×40,000

= $10,000

Hence the minimum maintenance margin requirement is $10,000

The Rhaegel Corporation’s common stock has a beta of 1.2. If the risk-free rate is 4.3 percent and the expected return on the market is 13 percent, what is the company’s cost of equity capital? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

Cost of equity = 14.74%

Explanation:

The capital asset pricing model is a risk-based model for estimating the return on a stock..

Here, the return on equity is dependent on the level of reaction of the the equity to changes in the return on a market portfolio. These changes are captured as systematic risk.

Systematic risks are those which affect all economic actors in the market, they include factors like changes in interest rate, inflation, etc. The magnitude by which a stock is affected by systematic risk is measured by beta.  

Under CAPM,  

E(r)= Rf + β(Rm-Rf)  

E(r)- cost of equity , Rf-risk-free rate , β= Beta, Rm= Return on market.  

Using this model, we can work out the value of beta as follows:  

β-1.2 Rf- 4.3%, Rm = 13%  

E(r) = 4.3% + 1.2 × (13 - 4.3)%=14.74 %

Expected return = 14.74 %

Cost of equity = 14.74%

What is the break-even EBIT

Answers

Answer:

$32,264.07

Explanation:

The computation of the Break-even EBIT  is shown below:

(EBIT ÷ Number of shares) = (EBIT - Interest) ÷ Number of shares  

(EBIT ÷ 10,900) = (EBIT - $66,000 × 0.08) ÷ (10,900 - (66,000 ÷ $37))

(EBIT ÷ 10,900) = (EBIT - $5,280) ÷ (10,900 - 1,783.78)

(EBIT ÷ 10,900) = (EBIT - $5,280) ÷ (9116.22)

After solving this, the value of break-even EBIT is $32,264.07

f the nominal interest rate is 7 percent and the real interest rate "is -2.5" percent, then the inflation rate is

Answers

Answer:

9.7%

Explanation:

(1 + nominal interest rate) = (1 + real rate) x (1 + inflation rate)

1.07 = 0.975 x (1 + inflation rate)

(1 + inflation rate) = 1.07 / 0.975

(1 + inflation rate) = 1.097

Inflation rate = 1.097 - 1 = 0.097 = 9.7%

A corporate bond currently yields 8.5%. Municipal bonds with the same risk, maturity, and liquidity currently yield 5.5%. At what tax rate would investors be indifferent between the two bonds?

Answers

Answer: 35.29%

Explanation:

Municipal Bonds are attractive in that they give the tax benefit of being tax exempt whereas a corporate bond is liable for taxation. The tax rate that will therefore make an investor indifferent between the two bonds is the one that will equate the Corporate bond's yield net of tax to the yield on the Municipal bond.

5.5% = 8.5% * ( 1 - x)

5.5% = 8.5% - 0.085x

0.085x = 8.5% - 5.5%

0.085x = 3%

x = 35.29%

Compute the payback period for this investment.

Answers

Answer:

Pay back period =3 years 4 months

Explanation:

The payback period is the estimated length of time it takes cash inflow from a project to recoup the cash outflow.  

The payback period uses cash flows and not profit.

The payback period can be determined by accumulation the cash inflow consecutively to ascertain the length of time it will take the sum to equate the initial cost.

This will be done as follows:

The sum of the cash in flows for the first three years would equal

50,000 + $31,000 + $60,000 = 141,000

The balance required to equate 190,000 would be

balance = 190,000 - 140,000 = 50,000

Pay back period = 3 years + (50,000/140,000)× 12 months

                            = 3 years 4 months

Pay back period =3 years 4 months

After reading it write about whether or not you agree with the academic economic consensus that independent officials running the Federal Reserve are able to properly balance their dual mandate in a fair and balanced fashion with the needs of workers in one hand and the financial industry on the other. If you agree with the consensus view explain your reasons; or if you disagree and think that the officials are biased in favor of the financial industry explain your reasoning with some possible solutions to the problem. Write at least two paragraphs articulating your views.

Answers

Answer:

The Federal Reserve has been at times biased in favor of the financial industry, because they have often put inflation targeting above the need to reduce unemployment when executing monetary policy. Besides, the financial industry has often been rescued by massive loans from the Fed.

However, the Federal Reserve has also acted in favor of reducing unemployment, specially during recessions, by expanding the money supply through a policy known as quantitative easing.

In conclusion, we can say that the Fed tends to be biased in favor of the financial industry, but not at all times.

When required, round to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

Ratio of fixed assets to long-term liabilities  = fixed assets / long term liabilities = $971,600 / $694,000 = 1.4

Ratio of liabilities to stockholders' equity = total liabilities / stockholders' equity = $834,000 / $2,780,000  = 0.3

Asset turnover = net sales / average total assets = $21,141,000 / [($3,614,000 + $3,433,000)/2] = 6  

Return on total assets = (net income + interest expense) / average total assets =  ($386,000 + $41,640) / [($3,614,000 + $3,433,000)/2] = 12.14%

Return on stockholders’ equity = net income / average stockholders' equity = $386,000 / [($2,780,000 + $2,558,000) = 14.46%

Return on common stockholders' equity = net income / average common stockholders' equity = $386,000 / [($1,946,000 + $1,724,000) = 21.04%

A company with a WACC of 8.5% is considering two possible investments. Project A will return 10% and be financed using equity costing 9.5%. Project B will return 8% and be financed using debt costing 6%. Which project should the company undertake

Answers

Answer:

The Company should undertake project A.

Explanation:

The finance of projects is usually done through pooling of funds, that is using various sources of finance. The WACC represents the return required by providers of this finance and also shows the risk of the company.

A company will always accept projects that provide a return higher that their weighted average cost of capital (risk) and reject any project offering a return below the WACC.

Conclusion :

The Company should undertake project A as this gives a return higher than the WACC of 8.5%.

a. Days' sales uncollected
b. Days' sales in inventory
c. Accounts receivable turnover
d. Acid test rato

Answers

Answer:

 1.1 The ratio from the list below which measures the efficiency of the operations of a company is D - Total Asset Turnover Ratio.  

Explanation:

Total Asset Turn Over Ratio is calculated by dividing Net Sales by Average Total Assets.

For example, if company CDH is reporting a value of $499,650 as initial total assets and $387,656 as ending total assets. Within the same period, the company generated sales of $250,655, with sales returns of $17,000.

This means that, the asset turnover ratio for Company CDH is calculated as follows:

($250,655-$17,000)/(($387,656+$499,650)/2)

The answer is 0.52667

Thus, every dollar in total assets generates $0.52667 in sales.

Efficiency ratios are important for rating the operations of the business. They are also used by investors and lenders when conducting financial analysis of businesses to decide whether the companies are a good investment.

1.2 The component which summarises the components applicable in 1.1 is D Total Asset Turnover          

2. Working capital is the variance between current assets and current liabilities.

. This is simply the capital that an organisation uses in its day-to-day business operations.

3.   The short-term liquidity ratios which calculate how frequently a company collects its accounts are:

A) Days' sales Uncollected and

C) Accounts receivable turnover.

A) Days' sales Uncollected is calculated by

(Accounts receivable/Net annual credit sales) x 365

It is the number of days before receivables are collected.

The lower the ratio the more liquid the company is likely to be. High Days' Sales Uncollected Ratios are bad for business.

C) Accounts receivable turnover is the annual rate at which a business collects its average accounts receivable.

Suppose you observe the following situation: Security Beta Expected Return Pete Corp. 1.80 .190 Repete Co. 1.49 .163 a. Assume these securities are correctly priced. Based on the CAPM, what is the expected return on the market? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) b. What is the risk-free rate? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

a. 12.03%

b. 3.32%

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

Expected rate of return = Risk free rate of return + [Beta × Risk premium]

Let us assume Risk free rate of return be x and Risk premium be y

Now the equations are as follows

For Pete Corp

19 = x + 1.80y ...................... (1)

For Repete Corp

16.3 = x + 1.49y .....................(2)

Now Solving (1) and (2)

After solving we get

y = 8.70967741935

x = 3.3225806452

i.e Risk free rate = x = 3.32%

And, the Risk premium = 8.70967741935%

The Sisyphean Company has a bond outstanding with a face value of $1,000 that reaches maturity in 8 years. The bond certificate indicates that the stated coupon rate for this bond is 8​% and that the coupon payments are to be made semiannually. Assuming the appropriate YTM on the Sisyphean bond is 9.6​%, then this bond will trade at

Answers

Answer:

this bond will trade at $912.05.

Explanation:

There is an Inverse relationship between the yield and the price of bond.

As the yield goes up, the price of bond goes down, that is trade at discount.Whereas, as the yield goes down, the price of bond goes up, that is trade at a premium.

The Bond investment in Sisyphean Company is trading at a discount.

The Price of the Bond, PV can be determined as follows..

PV = ?

FV = $1,000

PMT = ($1,000 × 8​%) ÷ 2 = $40

P/yr = 2

YTM = 9.6​%

n = 8 × 2 = 16

Using a Financial Calculator, the Price of the Bond, PV  is $912.05.

You have been hired by the CFO of Lugones Industries to help estimate its cost of common equity. You have obtained the following data: (1) r d = yield on the firm's bonds = 7.00% and the risk premium over its own debt cost = 4.00%. (2) r RF = 5.00%, RP M = 6.00%, and b = 1.25. (3) D 1 = $1.20, P 0 = $35.00, and g = 8.00% (constant). You were asked to estimate the cost of common based on the three most commonly used methods and then to indicate the difference between the highest and lowest of these estimates. What is that difference?

Answers

Answer:

Under CAPM:

Re = Rf + Beta(Rm - Rf)

Rf = 5%

Rm - Rf = 6%

Beta = 1.25

Re = 5% + (1.25 x 6%) = 12.5%

Under dividend discount model:

Re = (Div₁ / P₀) + g

Div₁ = $1.20

P₀ = $35

g = 8%

Re = ($1.20 / $35) + 8% = 11.43%

Under bond yield plus risk premium approach:

Re = Pre-tax cost of debt + risk premium over its own debt

Pre-tax cost of debt = 7%

risk premium over its own debt = 4%

Re = 7% + 4% = 11%

The highest cost of equity results from the CAPM model and it is 12.5% while the lowest results from using the bond yield plus risk approach (11%), the difference is 1.5% between them.

Answer: Add social value and entertainment to consumers' lives

Explanation:

In this age of technology, companies have found that being able to offer their customers relevant products can be greatly helped by gathering information about them and offering it to them directly on their phones. A great way to do so is through the use of mobile apps.

With mobile apps a company can track behavior on the device as well as track mobile activity. They could even use the GPS capabilities of the phone through the app to offer relevant location based content.

However, as much as companies would like their customers to have enjoyable lives, this is not an aim with mobile apps. The apps are there to boost the companies sales not to add social value and entertainment to consumers' lives unless of course, that is the company's main business.
