Which of the following is not a factor that a manager should bear in mind when estimating a​ project's revenues and​ costs?
A) Sales of a product will typically accelerate, stabilize, and then decline as the product becomes outdated or faces increased competition.
B) A new product typically has its highest sales immediately after release as customers are attracted by the novelty of the product.
C) The prices of technology products tend to fall over time as newer, superior technologies emerge and production costs decline.
D) Prices and costs tend to rise with the general level of inflation in the economy.

Answers

Answer:

B) A new product typically has its highest sales immediately after release as customers are attracted by the novelty of the product.

Explanation:

When a manager is implementing and executing a project, there are certain factors to be considered for revenue and costs associated with the project.

For instance, that a new product typically has its highest sales immediately after release as customers are attracted by the novelty of the product is not a factor that a manager should bear in mind when estimating a​ project's revenues and​ costs. This is simply because it is not guaranteed that all new products introduced to the market would be accepted or attractive to customers due to economical factors such scale of preference and opportunity costs.

Ideally, the factors to be considered by a manager when estimating a​ project's revenues and​ costs are;

1. Sales of a product will typically accelerate, stabilize, and then decline as the product becomes outdated or faces increased competition.

2. The prices of technology products tend to fall over time as newer, superior technologies emerge and production costs decline.

3. Prices and costs tend to rise with the general level of inflation in the economy.

A stock had returns of 9.62 percent, −14.65 percent, 19.85 percent, 25.35 percent, and 7.65 percent over the past five years. What was the geometric average return for this stock?

Answers

Answer:

The geometric average return for this stock was 8.64%.

Explanation:

Geometric average return refers to the return which will result in the correct compounded dollars at the end of the time period.

Geometric average return can be computed using the following formula:

Geometric average return = {[(1 + r1)(1 + r2) ... (1 + rn)]^(1/n)} - 1 ......... (1)

Where r is returns from year 1 to year n.

For the stock in the question, we have:

r1 = 9.62%, 0.0962

r2 = -14.65%, or -0.1465

r3 = 19.85%, or 0.1985

r4 = 25.35%, or 0.2535

r5 = 7.65%, or 0.0765

n = 5

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Geometric average return = {[(1 + 0.0962)(1 - 0.1465)(1 + 0.1985)(1 + 0.2535)(1 + 0.0765)]^(1/5)} - 1

Geometric average return = {1.51310732605096^0.20} - 1

Geometric average return = 0.0864, or 8.64%

Therefore, the geometric average return for this stock was 8.64%.

A company would like to evaluate two incentive schemes that take effect once the worker exceeds standard performance. In the first case the benefits are split 30% to the worker and 70% to the company up to 120% performance. If the worker exceeds 120% performance, all of the earnings go to the worker. In the second case, all earnings beyond standard performance are split 50/50 between the worker and the company.
a. Plot the earnings for each scheme.
b. Derive the equations for worker earnings and normalized unit labor costs for each scheme
c. Find the point at which the two plans break even.
d. Which do you think would the company prefer?

Answers

Answer:

B) plan 1 : worker earning  y = x - 0.14  ,  unit labor = [tex]\frac{x-(0.14)}{x}[/tex]

   plan 2 : worker earning y  = 0.5x + 0.5, unit labor = (0.5x + 0.5) / x

C) At 128%

D ) plan D IS PREFERABLE

Explanation:

In the first case Benefits are split : 30% to worker , 70% to company ( up to 120% ) performance

In the second case benefits 50% go to the worker and 50% go the company

B) The equations for worker earnings and normalized unit labor costs for each scheme

Plan 1 :

y  ( percentage earning of worker ) = 1

unit labor cost = Y / 1

y = 0 - 30

unit labor = 0.3 / x

y = x - 0.14  therefore unit labor = [tex]\frac{x-(0.14)}{x}[/tex]

plan 2 :

y  ( percentage earning of worker ) = 1,   y  = 0.5x + 0.5

unit labor cost :  Y / 1  =  (0.5x + 0.5) / x

C )  The point at which the two plans break even

0.5x + 0.5 = x - 0.14

0.5 + 0.14 = x - 0.5x

0.64 = x(1 - 0.5 )

x = 0.64 / 0.5 =  1.28 = 128%

D) The company would prefer plan 1

A single-channel queuing system has an average service time of eight minutes and an average time between arrivals of 10 minutes. The arrival rate is: Group of answer choices 10 per hour. 12.5 per hour. 6 per hour. 7.5 per hour. 8 per hour.

Answers

The correct answer is B. 6 per hour

Explanation:

The term "arrival rate" refers to the number of customers that arrive at a business during a specific time such as an hour or a day. This is determined by how often customers arrive or the time between arrivals. This concept complements the service rate, which refers to the customers that receive a service during a period of time.

In the case presented, it is known the time between arrivals is 10 minutes, this means it is expected every 10 minutes a new customer arrives. Based on this, each hour the business can expect a total of 6 customers as 60 minutes divided by 10 (time between arrivals) = 6 customers. Thus, the rate of arrival is 6 per hour.

Kosher Pickle Company acquires all the outstanding stock of Midwest Produce for $12.5 million. The fair value of Midwest's assets is $8.5 million. The fair value of Midwest's liabilities is $1.3 million. Calculate the amount paid for goodwill

Answers

Answer:

$5.3 million

Explanation:

Kosher pickle company acquires outstanding stock of Midwest produce for $12.5 million

Fair value of Midwest assets is $8.5 million

Fair value of Midwest liabilities is $1.3 million

The first step is to calculate the fair value of net identifiable assets

= $8.5 million-$1.3 million

=7.2 million

Therefore, the amount paid for goodwill can be calculated as follows

= $12.5 million-$7.2 million

= $5.3 million

Hence the amount paid for goodwill is $5.3 million

The Bathtub Division of Kirk Plumbing Corporation has recently approached the Faucet Division with a proposal. The Bathtub Division would like to make a special "ivory" tub with gold-plated fixtures for the company's 50-year anniversary. It would make only 5,000 of these units. It would like the Faucet Division to make the fixtures and provide them to the Bathtub Division at a transfer price of $160. If sold externally, the estimated variable cost per unit would be $140. However, by selling internally, the Faucet Division would save $6 per unit on variable selling expenses. The Faucet Division is currently operating at full capacity. Its standard unit sells for $43 per unit and has variable costs of $25.

Required:
Compute the minimum transfer price that the Faucet Division should be willing to accept, and discuss whether it should accept this offer.

Answers

Answer:

Minimum transfer price = $152

Explanation:

The minimum transfer price can be calculated by Adding variable cost and the contribution margin lost

Minimum transfer price = Variable cost + Contribution margin lost

Minimum transfer price = $134 + $18

Minimum transfer price = $152

Working

Variable cost  = $140 -$6(saving) = $134

Contribution margin lost = Selling price - variable cost per unit

Contribution margin lost = $43 - $25

Contribution margin lost = $18

Decision: The offer should be accepted because the minimum transfer price of $152 is less than $160

Faisal has in his savings account and can save an additional per year. If interest rates are​ 12%, how long will it take his savings to grow to ​?

Answers

Answer:

5 years and 4 months = 5.33 years

Explanation:

the question is incomplete and it is missing several numbers. I found the following question which I think is the complete:

"Faisal has $12,000 in his savings account and can save an additional $3600 per year. If interest rates are 12%, how long will it take his savings to grow to $47,000? "

by the end of year 1, Faisal will have:

$12,000 x (1 + 12%) = $13,440+ $3,600total = $17,040

by the end of year 2, Faisal will have:

$17,040 x (1 + 12%) = $19,084.80+ $3,600total = $22,684.80

by the end of year 3, Faisal will have:

$22,684.80 x (1 + 12%) = $25,406.98+ $3,600total = $29,066.98

by the end of year 4, Faisal will have:

$29,066.98 x (1 + 12%) = $32,487.81+ $3,600total = $36,087.81

by the end of year 5, Faisal will have:

$36,087.81 x (1 + 12%) = $40,418.35+ $3,600total = $44,018.35

Since Faisal is very close to his goal, we can calculate how much money he will have in 6 months:

in 5 years and 6 months, Faisal will have:

$44,018.35 x (1 + 6%) = $46,659.45+ $1,800total = $48,459.45

Faisal's savings are too high in 6 more months, so we can calculate in 3 more months instead:

in 5 years and 3 months, Faisal will have:

$44,018.35 x (1 + 3%) = $45,338.90+ $900total = $46,238.90

Faisal is just a little bit short:

in 5 years and 4 months, Faisal will have:

$44,018.35 x (1 + 43%) = $45,779.08+ $1,200total = $46,979.08

I guess we are close enough because in one more month he will have a significantly higher amount.

A stock has an expected return of 13.5 percent, its beta is 1.40, and the expected return on the market is 11.5 percent. What must the risk-free rate be? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

The risk free rate is 6.50%

Explanation:

The required rate of return is the minimum return that investors demand/expect on a stock based on the systematic risk of the stock as given by the beta. The expected or required rate of return on a stock can be calculated using the CAPM equation.

The equation is,

r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)

Where,

rRF is the risk free rate rM is the return on market

As we know the figures for r, Beta and rM, we will input these figures in the equation to calculate risk free rate.

Let risk free rate be x.

0.135 = x + 1.4 * (0.115 - x)

0.135 = x + 0.161 - 1.4x

0.135 - 0.161  =  x - 1.4x

-0.026  =  -0.4x

-0.026 / -0.4 = x

x =  0.065 or 6.50%

r = 0.1475 or 14.75%

The internal rate of return method is used to analyze a $831,500 capital investment proposal with annual net cash flows of $250,000 for each of the six years of its useful life. a. Determine a present value factor for an annuity of $1, which can be used in determining the internal rate of return. Carry your answer out to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

annuity factor for 20% and 6 periods = 3.326

Explanation:

the IRR represents the discount rate at which a project's NPV = 0

NPV = initial outlay + PV of future cash flows

NPV = 0

initial outlay = -$831,500

PV of future cash flows = $831,500 = cash flow x annuity factor

annuity factor = $831,500 / $250,000 = 3.326

using an annuity table and looking for the annuity factors for 6 periods, we find that the annuity factor for 20% and 6 periods = 3.326.

So our IRR = 20%

Miss. Asma works as a sales executive at HBL Bank, is upset at the way her manager, Sadaf, always calls her in for one-on-one meetings to discuss her underperformance. Though Asma makes a higher number of sales calls and works longer hours than last year, her sales figures are still low. She knows that the main reason behind her underperformance is the recent economic meltdown in the country. However, her manager feels that Asma's underperformance is the result of her laid-back attitude and has nothing to do with external factors. In this situation, what kind of behavior/Attitude Sadaf is showing and how it can be replicate

Answers

Answer:

Sadaf's behavior exemplifies Fundamental attribution error.

It can be replicated if Sadaf does not try to understand Asma's point of view of her underperformance.

Explanation:

The Fundamental Attribution Error is a type of error by the people of over-emphasizing the characteristics of a person while ignoring the situational factors. In such type of cognitive bias, people tend to instil the personal trait of other or judging them for their laid-back behavior based on their personal trait rather than thinking of any possibility of external situation that may have caused it.

In the given situation, Sadaf is showing fundamental attribution error behavior by instilling to Asma's underperformance with her laid-back behavior instead of asking her the real problem.

This attribution error can be replicated if Sadaf did not ask Asam for the reason behind her underperformance.

David Ortiz Motors has a target capital structure of 45% debt and 55% equity. The yield to maturity on the company's outstanding bonds is 12%, and the company's tax rate is 40%. Ortiz's CFO has calculated the company's WACC as 11.35%. What is the company's cost of equity capital

Answers

Answer:

the company's cost of equity capital is 14.75 %.

Explanation:

WACC = ke × (E/V) + kd × (D/V)

Where,

ke = cost of equity

    = this is unknown

E/V = Weight of Equity

      = 55%

kd = cost of debt

     = Interest × ( 1 - tax rate)

     = 12% × ( 1 - 0.40)

     = 7.20 %

D/V = Weight of Debt

       = 45%

Therefore,

WACC = ke × (E/V) + kd × (D/V)

11.35% = 55%ke + 7.20 % × 45%

11.35% = 55%ke + 3.24 %

Upton Co. is growing quickly. Dividends are expected to grow at 20 percent for the next three years, with the growth rate falling off to a constant 8 percent thereafter. If the required return is 11 percent and the company just paid a dividend of $1.45, what is the current share price

Answers

Answer:

$71.03

Explanation:

To find the current share price we need to find the value of future dividends first and then discount it by the given rate of return

DATA

Growth rate = g = 20%

Time period = 3 years

Required return = 11%

Current dividend = Do = $1.45

Share price =?

Solution

Future dividend = Current dividend ( 1 + growth rate)

D1 = (1.45 x 1.20) = $1.74

D2 = (1.74 x 1.20) = $2.088

D3 = (2.088 x 1.20) = $2.5056

Value after year 3 = (D3 x Growth rate) / (Required return-Growth rate)

Value after year 3 = (2.5056*1.08) / (0.11-0.08)

Value after year 3 =$90.2

current share price = Future dividends x Present value of discounting factor

current share price = (1.74/1.11)+($2.088/1.11^2)+(2.5056/1.11^3)+($90.2/1.11^3)

3. There a number of market entry strategies that businesses use in entering into markets outside their countries. a) Distinguish between the use of Franchising and Joint Venture as modes of entry into other countries by global businesses. b) What are the respective advantages and disadvantages of both strategies?

Answers

Answer:

a) Distinguish between the use of Franchising and Joint Venture as modes of entry into other countries by global businesses.

Franchising consists in the licensing of aspects of production and intellectual property to a another party: the franchise.

A Joint Venture is a business union between two or more parties, in which they split profit as well as costs and responsabilities.

b) What are the respective advantages and disadvantages of both strategies?

Franchising can be a quicker way to expand into foreign markets. The flexibility of the method, and the lower capital requirements are the reason why. This can be seen in the success that American fast-food brands have had using this method to expand in global markets.

A Joint-Venture can be more difficult to use for market expansion, however, it can be more profitable, because the profit will not be split among as many parties as in franchising, and more importantly, the firm maintains a higher control of the operation.
