Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12.13%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what the market believe that 2-year securities will be yielding 4 years from now using a geometric average

Yield=((1+6 year rate)^6/(1+4 year rate)^4)^(1/2)-1

Yield =((1+7.7%)^6/(1+5.55%)^4)^(1/2)-1

Yield =0.1213*100

Yield =12.13%

Therefore what the market believe that 2-year securities will be yielding 4 years from now

Suppose you know a company's stock currently sells for $90 per share and the required return on the stock is 15 percent. You also know that the total return on the stock is evenly divided between a capital gains yield and a dividend yield. If it's the company's policy to always maintain a constant growth rate in its dividends, what is the current dividend per share

Answers

Answer:

$ 3.87

Explanation:

It is given that :

Cost of the company's stock per share = $ 90

The required return on the stock is = 15 %

Therefore, the dividend yield = [tex]$\frac{9}{2}=4.5$[/tex]

We known that

[tex]$\frac{\text{dividend in one year}}{\text{current price}}=0.045$[/tex]

[tex]$D_1=0.045 \times 90$[/tex]

Jane currently has $5,300 in her savings account and $2,000 in her checking account at the local bank. Instructions:
A. If Jane withdraws $500 in cash from her savings account, by what dollar amount will the country's money supply (M1 and M2) change as a result of Jane's actions?
B. Suppose that after Jane withdraws $500 from her checking account, she uses $180 of this money to pay her federal income tax. After paying her taxes, Jane uses $160 to buy a set of used golf clubs from her neighbor, who then deposits the money into his checking account. Jane deposits the remaining cash from the $500 withdrawal into her savings account. By what dollar amount will the country's money supply change as a result of Jane's actions?

Answers

Answer:

A

M1 change = $500M2 change = $0

B

M1 change = -$340M2 change = -$180

Explanation:

A. M1 includes actual liquid cash in hand as well as cash in checking deposits.

M2 includes M1 as well as savings deposits and time deposits amongst others.

M1 change = +$500

$500 went from the Savings account which was not part of M1 to M1.

M2 change = $0

The money went from Savings to Checking which are both part of M2.

B.

M1 change = -$-180 - ( 500 - 180 -160 ) = -$340

Tax of $180 went out of the supply as tax. Jane deposits the remaining cash after paying $160 for goods into the savings account which is not part of M1. That remaining cash is = 500 - 180 - 160 = $160.

M2 change = -500 + 160 + 160 = -$180

For M2, only taxes will reduce money from it because the rest goes to checking deposits and savings accounts both of which are part of M2

Answer:

free rider problem

Explanation:

The air pollution constitutes a negative externality

A good has negative externality if the costs to third parties not involved in production is greater than the benefits. an example of an activity that generates negative externality is pollution. Pollution can be generated at little or no cost, so they are usually overproduced. Government can discourage the production of activities that generate negative externality by taxation. Taxation increases the cost of production and therefore discourages overproduction. Tax levied on externality is known as Pigouvian tax.

Government can regulate the amount of externality produced by placing an upper limit on the amount of negative externality permissible

Lake Power Sports sells jet skis and other powered recreational equipment. Customers pay one-third of the sales price of a jet ski when they initially purchase the ski, and then pay another one-third each year for the next two years. Because Lake has little information about the ability to collect these receivables, it uses the cost recovery method to recognize revenue on these installment sales. In 2020, Lake began operations and sold jet skis with a total price of $690,000 that cost Lake $345,000. Lake collected $230,000 in 2020, $230,000 in 2021, and $230,000 in 2022 associated with those sales. In 2021, Lake sold jet skis with a total price of $1,860,000 that cost Lake $1,116,000. Lake collected $620,000 in 2021, $430,000 in 2022, and $430,000 in 2023 associated with those sales. In 2023, Lake also repossessed $380,000 of jet skis that were sold in 2021. Those jet skis had a fair value of $142,500 at the time they were repossessed. In 2020, Lake would recognize realized gross profit of:

Answers

Answer:

$115,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what Lake would recognize realized gross profit

First step is to calculate the Gross profit percentage

Gross profit percentage = [($690,000 − $345,000)/$690,000]

Gross profit percentage =$345,000/$690,000

Gross profit percentage =0.5*100

Gross profit percentage = 50%

Now let calculate the realized gross profit

Realized gross profit=50% × $230,000

Realized gross profit = $115,000

Therefore Lake would recognize realized gross profit of:$115,000

If a Notary Public violates the law while carrying out their responsibilities, they are held personally accountable. A Notary Public must post a bond in order to protect the injured party's right to recover up to $10,000. Despite this, the Notary Public is still personally responsible for any damages they may have caused, and they risk criminal prosecution as well as the revocation or suspension of their notary public commission.

Using the dividend growth model (allowing for nonconstant growth), what should be the price of the company's stock today (December 31, 2019)

Answers

Answer:

Value of stock = $47.99

Explanation:

The price of a stock using the dividend valuation model is the present value of the the future dividend expected from the stock discounted at the required rate of return.

Year                                   Present Value  

1    1.25× 1.15^1 × 1.095^(-1) =1.31

2    1.25× 1.15^2 × 1.095^(-2) = 1.38

3.    1.25× 1.15^3 × 1.095^(-3)= 1.45

Present value of Dividend in Year 4 and beyond

This will be done in two steps

Step 1

PV in year 3 terms  

= Dividend in year 4× (1.06)/(0.095-0.06)

1.25× 1.15^3 × 1.06/(0.095-0.06)=57.57

PV in year 0 terms =

PV in year 3 × 1.095^(-3)

=57.5759 × 1.095^(-3)= 43.852

Value of stock = 1.3  + 1.38 + 1.45  + 43.852= $47.99

Value of stock = $47.99

Department A had no Work-in-Process at the beginning of the period, 4,400 units were completed during the period, 540 units were 50% completed at the end of the period, and the following manufacturing costs were debited to the departmental Work-in-Process account during the period: Direct materials (1,540 at $10) $ 15,400 Direct labor 32,173 Factory overhead 25,735 Assuming that all direct materials are added at the beginning of production and Department A uses weighted-average process costing, what is the total cost of the departmental Work-in-Process Inventory at the end of the period

Answers

Answer:

the ending inventory is $8,748

Explanation:

The computation of the total cost of the departmental Work-in-Process Inventory at the end of the period is shown below:

Materials is $10 per unit

And, the conversion cost is

= ($32,173 + $25,735) ÷ (4,400 units + 540 units ÷ 2)

= $57,908 ÷ 4,670

= $12.4

Now the ending inventory is

= 540 units × $10 per unit + 270 units × $12.4

= $8,748

Hence, the ending inventory is $8,748

The manufacturing overhead budget at Polich Corporation is based on budgeted direct labor-hours. The direct labor budget indicates that 7,400 direct labor-hours will be required in February. The variable overhead rate is $8.50 per direct labor-hour. The company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $108,780 per month, which includes depreciation of $18,080. All other fixed manufacturing overhead costs represent current cash flows.The company recomputes its predetermined overhead rate every month. The predetermined overhead rate for February should be:_____.
a. $193.690.
b. $211,850.
c. $112,940.
d. $80,750.

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

The computation of overhead rate for February is seen below

First, we need to determine the fixed manufacturing overhead per labor hour

Fixed manufacturing overhead per direct labor hour = Total manufacturing overhead ÷ Total direct labor hours

= $108,780 ÷ 7,400

= $14.7

Predetermined overhead rate = Variable overhead rate + Fixed manufacturing overhead rate

= $8.50 + $14.70

= $23.2 per direct labor hour

Required:
Prepare a flexible budget for 12,000, 15,000, and 18,000 filing cabinets for the month of March

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Supervisor salaries $117,000 per month

Depreciation $21,000 per month

Direct labor rate $15 per hour

Cabinets per hour= 60/20= 3

We need to determine the flexible budget for different production levels:

12,000 units:

Total direct labor hours= (12,000 / 3)= 4,000 hours

Total variable cost= 4,000*15= 60,000

Total fixed costs= 21,000 + 117,000= 138,00

Total cost= $198,000

15,000 units:

Total direct labor hours= (15,000 / 3)= 5,000 hours

Total variable cost= 5,000*15= 75,000

Total fixed costs= 21,000 + 117,000= 138,00

Total cost= $213,000

18,000 units:

Total direct labor hours= (18,000 / 3)= 6,000 hours

Total variable cost= 6,000*15= 90,000

Total fixed costs= 21,000 + 117,000= 138,00

Total cost= $228,000

An asset falling under the MACRS five-year class was purchased three years ago for $200,000 (its original depreciation basis). Calculate the cash flows if the asset is sold now at a) $60,000 and b) $80,000. Assume the applicable tax rate is 40 percent.

Answers

Answer:

(a) The cash flows is $59,040.

(b) The cash flows is $71,040.

Explanation:

From the  Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) Tables, the depreciation rates for the first 3 years for an asset falling under the MACRS five-year class are 20%, 32% and 19.2%. Therefore, we have:

Accumulated depreciation rate = 20% + 32% + 19.2% = 71.20%

Accumulated depreciation = Cost of the asset * Accumulated depreciation rate =  $200,000 * 71.20% = $142,400

Net book value of the asset = Cost of the asset - Accumulated depreciation = $200,000 - $142,400 = $57,600

We can now proceed as follows:

(a) Calculate the cash flows if the asset is sold now at $60,000

Capital gains = Sales proceeds - Net book value = $60,000 - $57,600 = $2,400

Capital gains tax = Capital gains * Tax rate = $2,400 * 40% = $960

Net sales proceeds = Sales proceeds - Capital gains tax = $60,000 - $960 = $59,040

Therefore, the cash flows is $59,040 net sales proceeds.

(b) Calculate the cash flows if the asset is sold now at $80,000

Capital gains = Sales proceeds - Net book value = $80,000 - $57,600 = $22,400

Capital gains tax = Capital gains * Tax rate = $22,400 * 40% = $8,960

Net sales proceeds = Sales proceeds - Capital gains tax = $80,000 - $8,960 = $71,040

Therefore, the cash flows is $71,040 net sales proceeds.

The cash flows is $59,040 and $71,040 when asset are sold at $60,000 and $80,000.

What is MACRS depreciation?

MACRS stands for modified accelerated cost recovery system is the depreciation system in the U.S. where the cost of the asset is recovered in a specific period through deduction.

Given:

Asset=$200,000

The depreciation rate for 5 year asset are:20%, 32%, 19.2%, 11.52%, 11.52% and 5.76%

Accumulated  depreciation  for 3 years=20% + 32% + 19.2% = 71.20%

=asset cost X  depreciation rate for 3 years

=$200,000 X 71.20% = $142,400

Net Book value=Asset Cost  - Accumulated depreciation

=$200,000 - $142,400

= $57,600

(a)Cash flows if assets sold at $60,000

Capital gains = Sales - Net book value

=$60,000 - $57,600

= $2,400

Capital gains tax = Capital gains X Tax rate

= $2,400 * 40% = $960

Net sales proceeds = Sales proceeds - Capital gains tax

= $60,000 - $960 = $59,040

(b)Cash flows if assets sold at $80,000

Capital gains = Sales - Net book value

= $80,000 - $57,600

= $22,400

Capital gains tax = Capital gains X Tax rate

= $22,400 * 40% = $8,960

Net sales proceeds = Sales proceeds - Capital gains tax

= $80,000 - $8,960 = $71,040

Therefore the above calculation aptly gives the solution.

Answers

Answer:

0.304

Explanation:

The calculation has been done step by step in order to understand the final result. Note that (p) in the below working refers to the correlation coefficient between Stock A and B.

0.042 = (0.70^2)(0.23^2) + (0.30^2)(0.29^2) + 2(0.70)(0.30)(0.23)(0.29)p

0.042 = 0.0259 + 0.0076 + 0.028p

0.042 = 0.0335 + 0.028p

0.042 - 0.0335 = 0.028p

0.0085 = 0.028p

p = 0.0085 / 0.028

Cincinnati t-shirts prints custom t-shirts. The cost to produce one shirt is: direct materials, $10; direct labor, $1.20; and manufacturing overhead $4.50. Cincinnati Children’s Hospital asked Cincinnati t-shirt to sell them custom t-shirts for $12 each for a local charity event. Direct material and direct labor are required for each t-shirt. Of the manufacturing overhead, $1.50 is variable and would be incurred on each additional unit. The remaining $3 in overhead is allocated fixed overhead that would not be increased or decreased by this order. What would be the effect on net income if they accept this special order and sell 200 shirts to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital for $12 each?

Answers

Answer:

Effect on income= $140 decrease

Explanation:

Giving the following formula:

Production costs:

Direct material= 10

Direct labor= 1.2

Variable overhead= $1.5

Selling price= $12

Number of units= 200

Because it is a special offer and there is unused capacity, we will not take into account the fixed costs.

Effect on income= Units sold*unitary contribution margin

Effect on income= 200*(12 - 10 - 1.2 - 1.5)

Effect on income= $140 decrease

You plan to visit Geneva, Switzerland in three months to attend an international business conference. You expect to incur the total cost of SF 5,000 for lodging, meals and transportation during your stay. As of today, the spot exchange rate is $0.60/SF and the three-month forward rate is $0.63/SF. You can buy the three-month call option on SF with the exercise rate of $0.64/SF for the premium of $0.05 per SF. Assume that your expected future spot exchange rate is the same as the forward rate. The three-month interest rate is 6 percent per annum in the United States and 4 percent per annum in Switzerland.

Required:
a. Calculate your expected dollar cost of buying $F5,000 if you choose to hedge by a call option on SF.
b. Calculate the future dollar cost of meeting this SF obligation if you decide to hedge using a forward contract.
c. At what future spot exchange rate will you be indifferent between the forward and option market hedges?
d. Illustrate the future dollar cost of meeting the SF payable against the future spot exchange rate under both the options and forward market hedges.

Answers

Answer:

A. 3403.75 dollars

B. 3150

C. 0.579

D. Is an attachment

Explanation:

A. We first find the premium cost

= 0.05x5000 x 1+0.06/4

= 250x1.015

= 253.75

From here we find expected dollar cost

= Exchange rate x units + premium

= 0.63x5000+253.75

= 3,403.75 dollars

B. Forward rate = 0.63

Total cost of dollar

= 0.63x5000

= 3150

C. The investor would be indifferent at 0.579

Forward rate = unit * future + premium

3150 = 5000 * future + 253.75

3150-253.75 = 5000*future

We solve and divide through by 5000

Future = 0.579

D is in the attachment

The expected dollar cost of buying $F5,000 through the call option is $3403.75.

The first thing to do is to calculate the premium cost. This will be:

= (5% × 5000) × (1 + 6%/4)

= (0.05 × 5000) × (1 + 0.06/4)

= 250 × 1.015

= 253.75

The expected dollar cost will be:

= Exchange rate × Number of units + Call premium cost

= 0.63 × 5000 + 253.75

= 3403.75

The future dollar cost of meeting this SF obligation will be calculated thus:

= Forward rate × Number of units

= 0.63 × 5000

= $3150

The future spot exchange rate that the person will be indifferent will be:

= (3150 - 253.75) / 5000

= $0.579

What would you expect to happen to the mix between internal financing (where companies use their own funds such as retained earnings) and external financing (where companies obtain funds through financial markets) for new investment projects in a country that experiences a large increase in financial market uncertainty

Answers

Answer:

With the large increase in financial market uncertainty, the mix between internal financing and external financing for new investment projects will tether towards internal sources of funding.

Explanation:

This means that the larger proportion of finance for new investment projects must come from internal sources rather than external sources.  The companies will, therefore, experience much more pressure to generate and retain sufficient profits than it would have experienced otherwise.  While this looks like the best way to go, the possibility of success depends on the chunk of the internally-generated funds that the companies already have.

Portia owns and manages a sporting apparel company. Consider the given average cost (AC), average variable cost (AVC), and marginal cost (MC) curves for track suits. All but the MC curve have been placed incorrectly. Portia knows that the minimum average cost for a track suit is $7 and the minimum of average variable cost is $5.

Required:
Draw the AC and AVC curves so that they are consistent with the marginal cost curve.

Answers

Answer:

AVC curve will be below the AC curve

Explanation:

As we know,

[tex]AC = AFC + AVC[/tex]

This means that Average cost is the sum of average fixed cost and Average variable cost. Thus it can be shown that AC curve will be above the AVC curve.

Also we know that MC curve is upward sloping.

Thus, the MC curve will cut the AVC curve first and it will be to the right of the point where the MC curve cuts the AC curve.

So the curve must look like,
