If you throw exactly two heads in two tosses of a coin you win $101. If not, you pay me $30. Step 1 of 2 : Find the expected value of the proposition. Round your answer to two decimal places. Losses must be expressed as negative values.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The expected value of the proposition is $2.50.

Explanation:

When a coin is tossed two times, the following is the sample space (S)

S = {HT,TH,TT,HH}

Using the information in the question, we can derive the following win/loss table:

S         Probability           Payoff

TH            1/4                      -$30

HT            1/4                     -$30

TT            1/4                      -$30

HH           1/4                     $100

The expected value (E) can now be calculated as follows:

E = Sum of (Probability * Payoff) = (1/4 * ($-30)) * (1/4 * ($-30)) * (1/4 * ($-30)) = (1/4 * $100) = ((1/4) * (-30)) + ((1/4) * (-30)) + ((1/4) * (-30)) + ((1/4) * 100) = $2.50

Explanation:

If the price level is above the equilibrium price level, how does the aggregate quantity of goods and services demanded compare to the aggregate quantity of goods and services supplied at the price level?

Answers

Answer:

When price is  above the equilibrium price level, quantity demanded would be less than the quantity supplied. This would lead to a surplus

Explanation:

Equilibrium price is the price at which quantity demand equal quantity supplied.

Above equilibrium price there is a surplus - quantity supplied exceeds quantity demanded. As a result of the surplus, price would fall until equilibrium is reached.

Below equilibrium price there is a shortage - quantity demanded exceeds quantity supplied. As a result of the shortage, price would rise until equilibrium is reached.

Given the following cost and activity observations for Smithson Company's utilities, use the high-low method to calculate Smithson's fixed costs per month. Cost Machine Hours January $88,020 9,800 February 150,430 17,700 March 103,350 11,700 April 129,310 15,000 a.$33,900 b.$18,000 c.$8,500 d.$10,600

Answers

Answer:

d. $10,600

Explanation:

Variable cost = (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost) / (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost = ($150,430 - $88,020) / (17,700 - 9,800)

Variable cost = $62,410 / 7,900

Variable cost = $7.9

Fixed cost = Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit*Highest activity units)

Fixed cost = $150,430 - ($7.9*17,700)

Fixed cost = $150,430 - $139,830

Fixed cost = $10,600

Rachelle transfers property with a tax basis of $740 and a fair market value of $935 to a corporation in exchange for stock with a fair market value of $620 and $93 in cash in a transaction that qualifies for deferral under section 351. The corporation assumed a liability of $222 on the property transferred. What is the corporation's tax basis in the property received in the exchange

Answers

Answer:

$927

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the corporation's tax basis in the property received in the exchange

The corporation's TAX BASIS in the property received in the exchange will be TAX BASIS of $740 plus gain recognized of $187 Calculated as ($935-$740) and Assuming the corporation sells the property for the amount of $935, the gain recognized will be $187.

Therefore the corporation's tax basis in the property received in the exchange will be :

Corporation's tax basis=Tax Basis +Gain recognized

Corporation's tax basis=$740+($935-$740)

Corporation's tax basis=$740+$187

Two investment centers at Marshman Corporation have the following current-year income and asset data:
Investment Center A Investment Center B
Investment center income$525,000 $635,000
Investment center average invested assets$4,600,000 $3,050,000
The return on investment (ROI) for Investment Center A is:________.

Answers

Answer: 11.41%

Explanation:

Return on assets refers to the amount of income earned per capital invested. It is calculated by the formula:

= 0.1141

= 11.41%

Tin Roof's net cash flows for the next three years are projected at $72,000, $78,000, and $84,000, respectively. After that, the cash flows are expected to increase by 3.2 percent annually. What is the value of the firm if the WACC is 9.32%

Answers

Answer:

$1,279,622.65

Explanation:

The value of the company is the present value of its future cash flows for the three-year planning horizon plus the present value of its continuing value beyond year 3, all discounted using the WACC as the appropriate discount rate.

continuing value=year 3 cash flow*(1+terminal growth rate)/(WACC-terminal growth rate)

continuing value= $84,000*(1+3.2%)/(9.32%-3.2%)=$1,416,470.59

present value of continuing value=$1,416,470.59/(1+9.32%)^3=$1,084,198.23

present value of 3-year cash flows=$72000/(1+9.32%)^1+$78,000/(1+9.32%)^2+$84,000/(1+9.32%)^3

present value of 3-year cash flows=$195,424.42

value of the company=$1,084,198.23+$195,424.42

value of the company=$1,279,622.65

XYZ has two divisions: South and West. Overall net operating income is $26,900. South Division's segment margin is $42,800 and West Division's segment margin is $29,900. What is the amount of the common fixed expense not traceable to the individual divisions?
a. $45,800.
b. S56800.
с.$69,700.
d. $72,700.

Answers

Answer:

a. $45,800.

Explanation:

The computation of the common fixed expense not traceable is given below

Combined segment margin of two divisions ($42,800 + $29,900) $72,700

Less: net income -$26,900

Non traceable fixed cost $45,800

Hence, the amount of the common fixed expense not traceable to the individual divisions is $45,800

Therefore the option a is correct

Which of the following The holding-period return (HPR) on a share of stock is equal to(s) the level of real interest rates? I) The supply of savings by households and business firms II) The demand for investment funds III) The government's net supply and/or demand for funds

Answers

Answer: D. I, II, and III.

Explanation:

The demand for investment funds determines the demand for loanable funds and when this is higher than the supply, the rate increases. The reverse it true. It therefore affects real interest rates.

The savings of households and business firms are the source of loanable funds so if these are high relative to demand, the rate will decrease. The reverse is true.

Government demand for funds will increase interest rates as the supply will decrease when the government borrows massively. The reverse is true.

All three therefore impart real interest rates.

If the price of oil, a close substitute for coal, increases then:

a. the demand curve for coal will shift to the right.
b. equilibrium price and quantity of coal will not change.
c. supply curve for coal will shift to the right.
d. demand curve for coal will shift to the left.
e. supply curve of coal will shift to the left.

Answers

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good.

if the price of a good increases, the demand for the substitute increases and if the price of the good reduces, the demand for the substitute increases.

If the price of oil increases, it becomes cheaper to buy coal. As a result, there would be a rightward shift of the demand curve for coal. As a result, the equilibrium price and quantity would increase

World-Tour Co. has just now paid a dividend of $2.83 per share (Div0); its dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate of 6 percent per year forever. If the required rate of return on the stock is 16 percent, what is the current value of the stock, after paying the dividend

Answers

Answer:

the current value of the stock is $30

Explanation:

The computation of the current value of the stock is given below:

Price of stock today is

= Dividend per share × (1 + growth rate) ÷  (required rate of return - growth rate)

= $2.83 × (1 + 0.06) ÷  (0.16 - 0.06)

= $2.9998 ÷ 0.10

= $29.9980  

= $30

Hence, the current value of the stock is $30

Corporation sold 210000 watches and produced 217000 watches that it sold for $19 each. The company determined that fixed manufacturing cost per unit was $8 per watch. The company reported a $1,302,000 gross margin on its financial statements. Determine the total contribution margin.

Answers

Answer:

The total contribution margin is:

= $2,982,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Production units = 217,000 watches

Sales units = 210,000 watches

Sales price per watch = $19

Sales revenue =   $3,990,000 (210,000 * $19)

Cost of goods sold 2,688,000 ($3,990,000 - $1,302,000)  ($12.80 each)

Gross profit =        $1,302,000

Cost of goods sold per unit = $12.80 ($2,688,000/210,000)

Fixed cost per unit = $8

Variable cost per unit = $4.80 ($12.80 - $8.00)

Contribution margin  per unit = $14.20

Total contribution margin = $2,982,000 ($14.20 * 210,000)

A downward-sloping yield curve generally indicates which of the following
(I) higher current short-term interest rates
(II) higher inflation expectations in future years
(III) a strong possibly of a recession within the next year
a) (I) and (III).
b) (II).
c) (III) only.
d) all are correct.

Answers

Answer:

a

Explanation:

A yield curve is a graph that plots the interest rate of bonds at a set point in time.

When the yield curve is downward sloping, it is expected that short term interest rate would be higher than the long term interest rate.

A downward sloping yield curve can be an indictor of coming recession.

A recession is when the GDP of a country for two consecutive quarters is negative. In a period of recession, interest rate is usually lower.

A downward sloping yield curve can also be an indicator that there is an expectation of lower inflation rate in coming years.

If the yield curve is upward sloping, the short term interest rate would be lower than the long term interest rate

A flat yield curve is an indicator that interest rate would be constant
