If a well-diversified portfolio of stocks has an expected return of 15% when the expected return on the market portfolio is 10%, then:_____

a. Treasury bills are offering a 7% yield.
b. The portfolio beta is greater than 1.0.
c. The portfolio beta equals 1.67.
d. The investor's portfolio contains many defensive stocks.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Explanation:

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

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

Market beta is represented by 1. If a portfolio has a beta that is higher than 1, it means that it is more risky than the market portfolio and investors would demand a higher return than the market portfolio

2. Compute the efficiency rate. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
3. Compute the quality rate. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
4. Compute the overall equipment effectiveness (OEE). (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 3 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

1. Utilization rate = Operating time/Scheduled time

Utilization rate = 5,696/6,400

Utilization rate = 0.89

2. Efficiency rate = (Total output / Ideal run rate) / Operating time

Efficiency rate = (18,100/2) / 5,696

Efficiency rate = 9,050 / 5,696

Efficiency rate = 1.5888343

Efficiency rate = 1.59

3. Quality rate = Good units produced / Total units produced

Quality rate = 12,670 / 18,100

Quality rate = 0.70

4. Overall Equipment Effectiveness = Utilization rate * Efficiency rate *  Quality rate

Overall Equipment Effectiveness = 0.89 * 1.59 * 0.70

Overall Equipment Effectiveness = 0.99057

Overall Equipment Effectiveness = 0.991

The utilization rate is 0.89 and the efficiency rate is 1.59.

From the information given, the utilization rate will be:

= Operating time/Scheduled time

= 5,696/6,400

= 0.89

The efficiency rate will be:

= (Total output / Ideal run rate) / Operating time

= (18,100/2) / 5,696

= 9,050 / 5,696

= 1.59

The quality rate will be:

= Good units produced / Total unit

= 12,670 / 18,100

= 0.70

The overall equipment effectiveness will be:

= Utilization rate × Efficiency rate × Quality rate

= 0.89 × 1.59 × 0.70

= 0.991

A company has 1000000 shares outstanding trading at $15 a piece. Managers believe that the discount rate appropriate for the risk borne is 15% and total cash flows, expected to be $1 million next year, will rise by 5% per year indefinitely. Discuss a strategy that is beneficial to the current shareholders.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Knowing the value of the equity and establishing the intrinsic worth of the share may help you develop a perfect strategy that will benefit the current shareholders.

Value of the equity =  Cashflow÷(discount rate - growth rate)

= $1,000,000 ÷ (15%-5%)  

= $1,000,000 ÷ (10%)  

= $10,000,000

Intrinsic value per share = Value of the equity ÷ Shares outstanding

= $10,000,000 ÷ 1,000,000

= $10

For the share, The intrinsic value = $10

However, since the current trading share price is $15, then we can posit that the share price is over-valued.

As a result, the perfect strategy that will be beneficial to the shareholders is for the current shareholders to sell the shares (short selling at a high price and purchasing at a low price).

XYZ Corporation manufactures orange safety suits for road workers. The following information relates to the corporation's purchases and use of material for April: Material purchased 12,000 yards Material used in production 10,000 yards Standard material allowed for suits produced 10,800 yards The company's materials price variance for April was $3,000 Favorable. Its materials quantity variance for April was $5,000 Favorable. What does the company use as a standard price per yard of material for its safety suits

Answers

Answer:

$6.25 per yard

Explanation:

The computation of the standard price per yard of material for its safety suits is shown below:

Material quantity variance = Standard Price × (Actual quantity - Standard quantity)

-$5,000 = Standard price × (10,000 - 10,800)    

Standard price  = -$5,000 ÷ (-800)  

= $6.25 per yard

Hence, the standard price per yard of material for its safety suits is $6.25 per yard

The text defines management as “The art of getting things done through the efforts of other people.” Put yourself in the shoes of a manager and explain what this definition means in the context of a company operation. You can use the example of any company (large or small) and any good or service.

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although you did not attach the text, we can comment on the quote.

"The art of getting things done through the efforts of other people.”

This quote means that good managers motivate and positively influence employees to get the job done. Managers coordinate and monitor the work of the employees. Managers first plan, then establish the goals to be accomplished and then direct the work effort to be productive.

If I were a manager of a company, I definitely try to emulate what the quote says. For instance, the manager of a recreational and sports club. I would do everything to establish clear, specific, and attainable goals so my employees could understand them. Then I describe the role and responsibilities of each employee so they can do their job without any doubts. And of course, I would delegate so they can do their jobs happily. No unnescesary intromissions. The objective would be to offer the best service possible to our clients.

Answers

Answer:

19.48 days

Explanation:

Calculation to determine How long did it take on average for credit customers to pay off their accounts during the past year

First step is to determine the receivables turnover for the company using this formula

Receivables turnover = Credit sales / Receivables

Let plug in the formula

Receivables turnover = $6,842,109 / $365,061

Receivables turnover = 18.74 times

Now let determine l the day’s sales in receivables using this formula

Days’ sales in receivables = 365 days / Receivables turnover

Let plug in the formula

Days’ sales in receivables = 365 days / 18.74

Days’ sales in receivables = 19.48 days

Therefore How long did it take on average for credit customers to pay off their accounts during the past year is 19.48 days

Patty’s Pies has sells 900 pies in August for $20.00 each. At the end of August Patty advertises her pies in the local Valupak which will mail to 25,000 local houses. Statistics show that approximately .5% (one half of one percent) of Valupak recipients result in a sale. Based upon this information, compute the amount of sales Patty would budget for September.

Answers

Answer: $20,500

Explanation:

The amount of sales that Patty would budget for September will be calculated thus:

The expected increase in sales unit will be calculated as:

= 0.5% × 25,000

= 125

Therefore, the unit of sale in September will then be:

= 900 pies + 125 pies

= 1025 pies

Then, the total amount of sale will be:

= 1,025 × $20

= $20,500

A total of 70,000 units were produced and sold last month. How many units would the company have to sell to achieve a desired profit of $620,000

Answers

Answer:

Break-even point in units= 78,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed cost= $940,000

Total contribution margin= (6,000,000 - 4,600,000)= $1,400,000

Unitary contribution margin= 1,400,000 / 70,000= $20

Desired profit= $620,000

To calculate the number of units to be sold, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= (940,000 + 620,000) / 20

Break-even point in units= 78,000

Answers

Answer:

$641,547.38

Explanation:

The formula for calculating future value:

FV = P (1 + r)^n

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

N = number of years  

We are to determine the future value of these cash flows. But to determine the future value, we need to determine the present value of the cash flows.

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

To find the PV using a financial calculator:

Cash flow in year 0 =  $10,000  

Cash flow in year 1 =  $15,000

Cash flow in year 2 = 0

Cash flow in year 3 = 0

Cash flow in year 4 = $25,000

I = 9.6

PV = 41,012.11

FV : 41,012.11(1.096)^30 = $641,547.38

The book value and fair value of the equipment given up were $34,000 (original cost of $86,000 less accumulated depreciation of $52,000) and $45,000, respectively. Assume Calaveras paid $6,000 in cash and the exchange lacks commercial substance. At what amount will Calaveras value the pickup trucks? How much gain or loss will the company recognize on the exchange?

Answers

Answer:

1. $51,000

2.$11,000 Gain

Explanation:

(1) Calculation to determine At what amount will Calaveras value the pickup trucks

Using this formula

Trucks value =Fair value + Cash paid

Let plug in the formula

Trucks value=$45,000+$6,000

Trucks value=$51,000

Therefore Calaveras value the pickup trucks at $51,000

(2) Calculation to determine How much gain or loss will the company recognize on the exchange

Using this formula

Gain or loss on exchange =Fair value - Book value

Let plug in the formula

Gain or loss on exchange=$45,000-$34,000

Gain or loss on exchange=$11,000 Gain

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "[tex]\$1,009,457[/tex]".

Explanation:

The net fixed asset starting value [tex]= \$1,271,006[/tex]

The net fixed asset ending value[tex]= \$2,108,650[/tex]

The expense of the depreciation  [tex]= \$171,813[/tex]

[tex]\text{Net Capital Spending = The net fixed asset ending value} - \text{The net fixed asset starting value} + \text{The expense of the depreciation} \\\\[/tex]

                                   [tex]= \$2,108,650 - \$1,271,006 + \$171,813\\\\= \$1,009,457[/tex]

How you can convince your colleagues that introducing the new soft drink is the most profitable strategy by explaining the reasoning and theoretical analysis?

Answers

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Coca-Cola and PepsiCo are the leading competitors in the market for cola products. In 1960 Coca-Cola introduced Sprite, which today is the worldwide leader in the lemon-lime soft drink market and ranks fourth among all soft drinks worldwide. Prior to 1999, PepsiCo did not have a product that competed directly against Sprite and had to decide whether to introduce such a soft drink. By not introducing a lemon-lime drink, PepsiCo would continue to earn a $200 million profit and Coca Cola would continue to earn a $300 million profit.

Suppose that by introducing a new lemon-line soft drink, one of two possible strategies could be pursued : (1) PepsiCo could trigger a price war with Coca-Cola in both lemon-lime and cola markets or (2) Coca-Cola could acquiesce and each firm maintains its current 50/50 split of the cola market and split the lemon-lime market 70/30 in favor of Coca-Cola. If Pepsi introduced a lemon-lime drink and a price war resulted, both companies would earn profits of $100 million. Alternatively, Coca-Cola and PepsiCo would earn $275 million and $227 million, respectively, if PepsiCo introduce a lemon-lime drink and Coca-Cola acquiesced and split the markets as listed above.

How you can convince your colleagues that introducing the new soft drink is the most profitable strategy by explaining the reasoning and theoretical analysis?

Solution :

The game can be represented in a way that is shown in the file attached below.

The [tex]\text{best response of Coca-Cola}[/tex] if Pepsi introduces the new product is [tex]\text{to acquiesce}[/tex] to earn [tex]\$275[/tex] million rather than starting a price war with Coca-Cola and earn only [tex]\$100[/tex]. Thus, while [tex]\text{Coca-Cola}[/tex] might use the strategy to threaten by starting a price war in the attempt of keeping out of the market, the threat will not be credible, so the best option is to introduce the new soft drink .

g A company's flexible budget for 15,000 units of production showed sales, $60,000; variable costs, $22,500; and fixed costs, $17,000. The sales expected if the company produces and sells 19,000 units is (Do not round intermediate calculations):

Answers

Answer:

$76,000

Explanation:

The first step is to find the sales price per unit

= 60,000/15,000

= $4

Therefore the sales expected from the company can be calculated as follow

= 4×19,000

= 76,000

Hence the expected sales is $76,000
