Answer:

$180,000

Explanation:

Reserves is the total amount of a bank's deposit that is not given out as loans

There are two types of reserves

required reservesexcess reserves

Required reserves is the percentage of deposits required of banks to keep as reserves by the central bank

Required reserves = reserve requirement x deposits

The Real Option Inc. is considering a new project. It believes that each year it would be able to sell 15 units at a $300,000 per-unit after-tax profit (i.e., per-unit operating cash flow) for the next five years. A $14.8 million initial investment will be required at the beginning of the project. The appropriate discount rate is 16 percent.

Required:
Calculate the base-case NPV of this project.

Answers

Answer:

NPV = $10.708 million

Explanation:

The base case NPV is that calculated by discounting the after-tax cash flow by the cost of equity based on  asset beta. The base-case NPV does not consider the financing effect of the any particular finance source used to fund the project.

NPV = PV of cash inflow   - Initial outlay

After-tax cash flow = 300,000×15= 4.5 million

PV of cash inflow = cash inflow × A × (1- (1+r)^(-n)/r

                                4.5 ×( 1- (1.16^-5)/0.16= 25.508 million

NPV = PV of cash inflow - Initial outlay

NPV = 25.508 million - 14.8 million

NPV = $10.708 million

A company's beginning Work in Process inventory consisted of units that were 90 % complete with respect to direct labor A total of were finished during the period and remaining in Work in Process inventory were 40 % complete with respect to direct labor at the end of the period . Using the weighted average method the equivalent units of production with regard to direct labor were :

Answers

Answer: 109,800 units

Explanation:

Equivalent Units of Production with respect to Direct Labor can be calculated as:

= Units completed during the period + Equivalent ending Work in Process Inventory (1)

Equivalent ending Work in Process Inventory = 32,000 ending units * 40% completion with respect to direct labor

= 12,800 units

EUP direct labor = 97,000 + 12,800 (1)

= 109,800 units

Lin Corporation has a single product whose selling price is $134 per unit and whose variable expense is $67 per unit. The company’s monthly fixed expense is $31,750. Required: 1. Calculate the unit sales needed to attain a target profit of $8,450. (Do not round intermediate calculations.) 2. Calculate the dollar sales needed to attain a target profit of $9,700.

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed cost= $31,750

Unitary contribution margin= 134 - 67= $67

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

Desired profit= $8,450

Break-even point in units= (31,750 + 8,450) / 67

Break-even point in units= 600

Now, the desired profit is $9,700; we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point (dollars)= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= (31,750 + 9,700) / (67/134)

Break-even point (dollars)= 41,450 / 0.5

Break-even point (dollars)= $82,900

If more than one stock offering investment bank is involved in the IPO, the deal is referred to as ___________stock offering.
After the SEC approves the registration statement for the IPO, the biggest responsibility for the issuing company and the investment bank becomes ensuring that the determined number of securities is sold and the firm is able to raise the intended amount. The IPO team-including the investment bankers, senior management team, lawyers, and investor relations team-conducts various activities. Which of the following statements are true about the activities involved in the IPO process?
a. The investment banker estimates the potential demand for the securities by recording the number of shares that each investor is willing to buy. This is called book-building.
b. The IPO team goes on a roadshow, making presentations to institutional investors selected by the underwriter.
c. If investors are willing to purchase more shares than are available, the IPO is considered to be oversubscribed.
d. During the roadshow, the IPO team can divulge additional information to institutional investors that is not given in the registration statement to lure the institutional investors.

Answers

Answer:

a. If the investment bank guarantees the sale of the securities, the issue is underwritten. The investment bank must pay the issuing firm within 4 days of the official start of the offering. If more than one stock offering investment bank is involved in the IPO, the deal is referred to as underwriter syndicate stock offering.

b. True Statements.

a. The investment banker estimates the potential demand for the securities by recording the number of shares that each investor is willing to buy. This is called book-building.

b. The IPO team goes on a roadshow, making presentations to institutional investors selected by the underwriter.

c. If investors are willing to purchase more shares than are available, the IPO is considered to be oversubscribed.

Book building is a process that allows investment banks to estimate the potential demand for the shares by finding out the number of shares that investors are willing to buy.

They do this after going on a roadshow where they essentially advertise the IPO to institutional investors. If these investors are willing to buy more shares that is available, they are oversubscribing.

A stock has a market price of $25 and a standard deviation of returns of 24 percent. The $25 call option matures in 4 months and the risk-free rate is 2.89 percent. N(d1) is .555198 and N(d2) is .500096. What is the value of the call option per share of stock

Answers

Answer:

$334.38

Explanation:

Use the following formula to calculate the value of call option

Value of call option = ( N ( [tex]d_{1}[/tex] )  S ) - N ( [tex]d_{2}[/tex] ) K [tex]e^{rt}[/tex]

Where

S = $25

N(d1) = 0.555198

N(d2) = 0.500096

K = 25

r = 2.89%

t = 4/12 = 0.3333

Placing values in the formula

Value of call option = ((0.555198 x $25 ) x $25) - ( 0.500096 x $25 ) x 1.00967891

Value of call option = $346.99875 - $12.62340

Value of call option = $334.37535

Value of call option = $334.38

WatchNU is a company that designs and manufacturers drones for military use. The supply manager is getting ready to renegotiate the contract with the security service provider that it uses for its offices and manufacturing plant. Three suppliers responded to the RFP for security services for the next three years. The current security services provider, SecureIT quoted $945,000 per year. Two suppliers that have not been used by WatchNU in the past quoted $1,048,000 and $1,056,000 respectively. The supply manager is also analyzing the costs associated with insourcing security services rather than using a supplier as a way to reduce costs and provide greater control over security. The salary and benefits for a full-time security services manager is estimated to be $99,000. Other fixed costs are estimated to be $29,000/year. Three security guards are needed 24 hours/day, 365 days per year. The salary and benefits for the security guards is $34/hour.

What are the costs to insource the security services?

Answers

Answer:

Variable Cost $893,520

Fixed Cost $128,000

Total Cost $1,021,520

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the costs to insource the security services

VARIABLE COST

Using this formula

Variable cost =Total Quantity of Output x Variable Cost Per Unit

Let plug in the formula

Variable cost =3* ($34/hour x 24 hours/day x 365 days per year)

Variable cost = $893,520

FIXED COST

Using this formula

Fixed cost=Salary and Benefits for a full time security service manager+Other Fixed Costs

Let plug in the formula

Fixed cost=($99,000) + ($29,000)

Fixed cost= $128,000

TOTAL COST

Using this formula

Total Cost = Variable Cost + Fixed Cost

Let plug in the formula

Total Cost=($893,520) + ($128,000)

Total Cost= $1,021,520

Therefore the costs to insource the security services will be:

Variable Cost $893,520

Fixed Cost $128,000

Total Cost $1,021,520

The CPI was 252 at the beginning of the year and 257 at the end of the year. What was the real interest rate that Juanita earned?

Answers

Answer:

1.98%

Explanation:

Inflation rate = (CPI at the end of the year / CPI at the beginning of the year) - 1

(257 / 252) - 1 = 0.01984 = 1.984%

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

1.04 = 1.01984 x  (1 + real interest rate)

(1 + real interest rate)  = (1.04 / 1.01984) - 1 = 1.98%

Maplewood Co. uses process costing to account for the production of canned energy drinks. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process and conversion costs are incurred uniformly throughout the process. Cost per equivalent unit has been calculated to be $4.00 for conversion costs and $3.00 for materials. 2,000 units were in beginning inventory (100% complete for materials, 80% for conversion). 8,000 units were started and completed during the period. Ending inventory still in process was 4,000 units (100% complete for materials, 40% forconversion). The value of ending inventory using the FIFO method would be:______.
A. $18,400.00B. $23,133.20C. $31,933.20D. $65,000.00

Answers

Answer:

A. $18,400.00

Explanation:

The computation of the  value of ending inventory using the FIFO method would be shown below:

Value of ending inventory = Materials + Conversion costs

where,  

Materials = (4000 units × 100%) × $3 per unit

= $12,000

And,  

Conversion costs = (4000 units × 40%) × $4 per unit

= $6,400

So, the ending inventory is

= $12,000 + $6,400

= $18,400

Answer: more; externality; market power.

Explanation:

Bakers are much (more) likely to supply pastries to the market if property rights are not enforced.

a. A manufacturing plant dumps chemical waste into a nearby river, poisoning the water supply for a small town downstream. - Externality

Externality, refers to the benefit s or costs that someone else incurs based on the economic decision of another person. In this case, this is a negative externality as the small town bears the cost of the production activities of the company.

b. A single public utilities company is responsible for supplying electricity for an entire state. As a result, the utilities company can set the price of electricity - Market power

Market power is when a firm is able to dictate the price and can then raise the price. This brings about the reduction in output as well. Since the single public utilities company is responsible for supplying electricity for an entire state, the company is enjoying monopoly power or market power.

The nominal interest rate in the U.S. is 5% and the nominal interest rate in Canada is 3%. The spot value of the U.S. dollar is 1 ($/Canadian dollar) and the forward rate is 1.2 ($/Canadian dollar). Which of the following is not true?A. The interest parity condition does not hold.
B. The dollar is likely to appreciate in spot markets.
C. Money will flow into the Canada.
D. The dollar is trading at a forward discount.

Answers

Answer: B. The dollar is likely to appreciate in spot markets.

Explanation:

First find the forward rate using the forward rate formula:

Forward rate = Spot rate * (1 + Interest rate of Canada) / (1 + Interest rate of US)

= 1 * ( 1 + 3%) / (1 + 5%)

= 0.980952

= 0.98

The forward rate according to the formula is less than the forward rate that is trading.

This means that the U.S. dollar is trading at a forward discount and when this happens, the dollar will not appreciate in the spot markets because it is scheduled to be discounted in the forward market.
