Answer: $380,000
Explanation:
To calculate the adjusted basis, we add the original cost, to the improvement cost and and then deduct depletion and depreciation cost.
From the scenario, since Rob and Lori purchased a home for $350,000 with an additional $5,000 in related purchase costs and then added a garage at a cost of $25,000 and then sold the home for $450,000 and paid $28,000 in selling costs.
The adjusted basis will be:
= $350,000 + $5,000 + $25,000
= $380,000

You own a stock portfolio invested 30 percent in Stock Q, 25 percent in Stock R, 25 percent in Stock S, and 20 percent in Stock T. The betas for these four stocks are .95, 1.12, 1.13, and 1.30, respectively. What is the portfolio beta? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
Portfolio beta = 1.1075
Explanation:
The portfolio beta is a function of the weighted average of the individual stocks betas' that form up the portfolio. To calculate the portfolio beta, we use the following formula,
Portfolio beta = wA * Beta of A + wB * Beta of B + ... + wN * Beta of N
Where,
w represents the weight of each stock in portfolioPortfolio beta = 0.30 * 0.95 + 0.25 * 1.12 + 0.25 * 1.13 + 0.20 * 1.30
Portfolio beta = 1.1075
Board Company has a foreign subsidiary that began operations at the start of 2017 with assets of 155,000 kites (the local currency unit) and liabilities of 100,000. During this initial year of operation, the subsidiary reported a profit of 49,000 kites. It distributed two dividends, each for 7,300 kites with one dividend declared on March 1 and the other on October 1. Applicable exchange rates for 1 kite follow:
January 1, 2017 (start of business) $0.80
March 1,2017 0.78
Weighted average rate for 2017 0.77
October 1,2017 0.76
December 31, 2017 0.75
Required:
a. Assume that the kite is this subsidiary's functional currency. What transfation adjustment would Board report for the year 2017?
b. Assume that on October 1,2017, Board entered into a forward exchange contract to hedge the net investment in this subsidiary. On that date, Board agreed to sell 200,000 kites in three months at a forward exchange rate of $0.76/1 kite. Prepare the journal entries required by this forward contract.
c. Compute the net translation adjustment for Board to report in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income for the year 2017 under this second set of circumstances.
Answer:
a. The Board would report translation adjustment of -$3,138.
b. See the journal entries and explanation below.
c. Net translation adjustment is -$1,138.
Explanation:
a. Assume that the kite is this subsidiary's functional currency. What translation adjustment would Board report for the year 2017?
Note: See the attached file for the calculation of translation adjustment.
The board would report a negative (debit) translation adjustment of $3,138. That is,
Translation adjustment = -$3,138
b. Assume that on October 1,2017, Board entered into a forward exchange contract to hedge the net investment in this subsidiary. On that date, Board agreed to sell 200,000 kites in three months at a forward exchange rate of $0.76/1 kite. Prepare the journal entries required by this forward contract.

Forward contract 2,000
(To record 200,000 kites delivered, $154,000 received, and close the forward contract account.)
Workings:
w.1: Translation adjustment = Number of kites agreed to sell in three months * (Agreed exchange rate on October 1, 2017 per kite - Exchange rate on December 1, 2017) = 200,000 * (0.76 - 0.75) = $2,000
w.2: Foreign Currency (kites) = Number of kites agreed to sell in three months * Agreed exchange rate on October 1, 2017 per kite = 200,000 * 0.76 = $152,000
c. Compute the net translation adjustment for Board to report in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income for the year 2017 under this second set of circumstances.
This can be calculated as follows:
Net translation adjustment = Negative translation adjustment in part a + Positive translation adjustment in part b (i.e. w.1) = -$3,138 + 2,000 = -$1,138
Therefore, net translation adjustment is -$1,138.

The following data regarding purchases and sales of a commodity were taken from the related perpetual inventory account:
June 1Balance 25 units at $60
6 Sale 20 units
8 Purchase 20 units at $61
16 Sale 10 units
20 Purchase 20 units at $62
23 Sale 25 units
30 Purchase 15 units at $63
Required:
Calculate the cost of the ending inventory at June 30, using (a) the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method and (b) the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. Identify the quantity, unit price, and total cost of each lot in the inventory.
Answer:
Under LIFO:
date transaction units unit price total
1 Balance 25 $60 $1,500
6 Sale 20 $60 $1,200
8 Purchase 20 $61 $1,220
16 Sale 10 $61 $610
20 Purchase 20 $62 $1,240
23 Sale 20 $62 $1,240
23 Sale 5 $61 $305
30 Purchase 15 $63 $945
ending inventory = total purchases + beginning balance - COGS = ($1,220 + $1,240 + $945) + $1,500 - ($1,200 + $610 + $1,240 + $305) = $3,405 + $1,500 - $3,355 = $1,550
Under FIFO:
date transaction units unit price total
1 Balance 25 $60 $1,500
6 Sale 20 $60 $1,200
8 Purchase 20 $61 $1,220
16 Sale 5 $60 $300
16 Sale 5 $61 $305
20 Purchase 20 $62 $1,240
23 Sale 15 $61 $915
23 Sale 10 $62 $620
30 Purchase 15 $63 $945
ending inventory = total purchases + beginning balance - COGS = ($1,220 + $1,240 + $945) + $1,500 - ($1,200 + $300 + $305 + $915 + $620) = $3,405 + $1,500 - $3,340 = $1,565
HighLife Corporation has the following information: Average demand = 30 units per day Average lead time = 40 days Item unit cost = $45 for orders of less than 400 units Item unit cost = $40 for orders of 400 units or more Ordering cost = $50 Inventory carrying cost = 15 percent The business year is 300 days. Standard deviation of demand during lead time = 90 Desired service level = 95 percent What is the EOQ if HighLife pays $45/unit? Due to possible differences in rounding, choose the closest answer.\
Answer:
365.15 units
Explanation:
The computation of the economic order quantity is shown below:
[tex]= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}[/tex]
where,
Annual demand is
= 30 units × 300 days
= 90,000 units
ordering cost is $50
Carrying cost is
= $45 × 15%
= $6.75
Now placing these values to the above formula
So, the economic order quantity is
[tex]= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{90,000}\times \text{\$50}}{\text{\$6.75}}}[/tex]
= 365.15 units
We simply applied the above formula so that the EOQ could come
A government bond with a coupon rate of 5% makes semiannual coupon payments on January 12 and July 12 of each year. The Wall Street Journal reports the asked price for the bond on January 27 at $1,004.375. What is the invoice price of the bond? The coupon period has 182 days.
Answer:
invoice price (dirty price) = $1,006.435
Explanation:
semi-annual coupon = $1,000 x 5% x 1/2 = $25
clean price = $1,004.375
accrued interest = (Jan. 27 - Jan. 12) x $25 x 1/182 = $2.06
invoice price (dirty price) = clean price + accrued interest = $1,004.375 + $2.06 = $1,006.435
the dirty price or invoice price of a bond includes any accrued interest that the bond may have earned in the period between the last coupon payment and the transaction date.
An investment offers a total return of 12.0 percent over the coming year. Janice Yellen thinks the total real return on this investment will be only 6.0 percent. What does Janice believe the inflation rate will be over the next year?
Answer:
inflation rate= 0.06= 6%
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Interest rate= 12%
Real rate of return= 6%
The inflation rate is counterproductive to the interest rate. The inflation rate reduces the purchasing price, therefore it decreases the interest rate effect on nominal money.
Real interest rate= interest rate - inflation rate
0.06 = 0.12 - inflation rate
inflation rate= 0.12 - 0.06
inflation rate= 0.06= 6%
Mr. Dow bought 100 shares of stock at $17 per share. Three years later, he sold the stock for $23 per share. What is his annual rate of return
Answer:
10.60%
Explanation:
The compound annual growth rate formula stated below can be used to determine the annual rate of return on the stock investment.
CAGR=(future value/present value)^(1/n)-1
future value is the future worth of the stock after three years i.e100*$23=$2300
Present value is the initial cost of the stock which is 100*$17=$1700
n is the number of years the stocks have been owned
CAGR=($2300/$1700)^(1/3)-1=10.60%
A food manufacturer reports the following for two of its divisions for a recent year.
($millions) Beverage Division Cheese Division
Invested assets, beginning $ 2,662 $ 4,455
Invested assets, ending 2,593 4,400
Sales 2,681 3,925
Operating income 349 634
1. Compute return on investment.
2. Compute profit margin.
3. Compute investment turnover for the year.A food manufacturer reports the following for two of its divisions for a recent year.
Answer and Explanation:
1. Return on investment is
= Operating Income ÷ Average invested Assets
here, average invested assets is
= (Invested assets, beginning + Invested assets, ending) ÷ 2
For Beverage Division
= $349 ÷ (($2,662 + $2,593) ÷ 2)
= $349 ÷ $2,628
= 13.28%
For Cheese Division
= $634 ÷ (($4,455 + $4,400) ÷ 2)
= $634 ÷ $4,428
= 14.32%
2. Profit margin = (Operating income ÷ sales) × 100
For Beverage Division
= ($349 ÷ $2,681) × 100
= 13.02%
For Cheese Division
= ($634 ÷ $3,925) × 100
= 16.15%
3. Investment turnover = Sales ÷ Average Operating Assets
For Beverage Division
= $2,681 ÷ (($2,662 + $2,593) ÷ 2)
= $2,681 ÷ $2,628
= 1.02 times
For Cheese Division, it would be
= $3,925 ÷ (($4,455 + $4,400) ÷ 2)
= $3,925 ÷ $4,428
= 0.89 times
What is the expected annual capital gain yield for Orange Corp stock, based on the Constant Dividend Growth Model
Complete Question:
What is the expected annual capital gain yield for Orange Corp stock, based on the Constant Dividend Growth Model? The company plans to pay an annual dividend of of $4.12 per share in one year. The expected annual growth rate of the dividend is 12.9%, and the required rate of return for the stock is 16.63%. Answer as a percentage, 2 decimal places (e.g., 12.34% as 12.34).
Answer:
12.9%
Explanation:
As we know that:
Capital Gain Yield = (P1 - P0) / P0
Step 1: Find P0
Po = D1 / (Ke - g)
Here
D1 is $4.12 per share
Ke is 16.63%
g is 12.9%
By putting values, we have:
Po = $4.12 / (16.63% - 12.9%)
= $110.46
Step 2: Find P1
P1 = D2 / (Ke - g)
Here
D2 = D1 * (1 + 12.9%) = $4.12 per share * (1 + 12.9%) = $4.65
Ke is 16.63%
g is 12.9%
By putting values, we have:
Po = $4.65 / (16.63% - 12.9%)
= $124.70
Step3: Find Annual Capital Gain Yield
Capital Gain Yield = (P1 - P0) / P0
Now by putting values, we have:
Capital Gain Yield = ($124.7 - $110.46) / $110.46
= 12.9%
The risk-free rate of return is 3.2 percent and the market risk premium is 4.6 percent. What is the expected rate of return on a stock with a beta of 2.12
Answer:
12.95%
Explanation:
The risk free rate of return is 3.2%
The market risk premium is 4.6%
The beta is 2.12
Therefore, the expected rate of return on a stock can be calculated as follows
= 3.2% + (2.12×4.6%)
= 3.2% + 9.752
= 12.95%
Hence the expected rate of return on a stock is 12.95%
Explain how you would value a stock. Provide an example of a valuation of a stock based on retrieved real data. Include evidence of the retrieved data in your answer. Compare your valuation with the actual price of the stock at the designated time for your valuation.
Answer with Explanation:
There are numerous stock valuing models but here, I will use Dividend Valuation Model which is based on finding the intrinsic value of Stock which is the present value of the stock at a required rate of return. The formula to calculate Intrinsic value of stock is given as under:
P0= D0 * (1 + g) / (ke - g)
Here
P0 is the intrinsic value of the stock
D0 is the dividend just paid
g is the growth rate
ke is the investor's required rate of return
The model doesn't holds if the company doesn't pays Dividend.
Now suppose that the Dividend just paid by Apple is $20 per stock. The anticipated growth rate of dividend is 10% and the required rate of return is at 15%.
By putting values in the above equation, we have:
P0= $20 * (1 + 10%) / (15% - 10%)
= $20 / (15% - 10%)
= $400 per share
The value of stock of Apple is $400 per share which must be its fair market value as per the Dividend Valuation Model.
As per the model, if the value of stock is higher as per dividend valuation model then we must purchase the stock as it will generate higher value and vice versa. The inherent limitation of the model is that it assumes that the dividend is growing at constant rate and is consistently paid. The main disadvantage of Dividend valuation model is that it doesn't account for political factors, economical factors, evolving business risks, technological factors, etc.
Activity-Based Costing: Selling and Administrative Expenses Jungle Junior Company manufactures and sells outdoor play equipment. Jungle Junior uses activity-based costing to determine the cost of the sales order processing and the customer return activity. The sales order processing activity has an activity rate of $20 per sales order, and the customer return activity has an activity rate of $100 per return. Jungle Junior sold 2,500 swing sets, which consisted of 750 orders and 80 returns.
Required:
a. Determine the total sales order processing and customer return activity cost for swing sets.
b. Determine the per-unit sales order processing and customer return activity cost for swing sets. Round your answer to the nearest cent.
Answer: 1}ToTAL Activity cost =$23,000
2a) Sales order Processing Activity per unit sale=$6.00
2b)customer return activity per unit sale=$3.20
Explanation:
a. total sales order processing and customer return activity cost for swing sets
Sales order Processing Activity =Number of orders x rate per sales order
=750 x 20 = $15,000
customer return activity = Number of returns x rate per return
= 80 x 100= $8,000
ToTAL Activity cost = Sales order Processing Activity +customer return activity= $15,000 + $8000 = $23,000
b)per-unit sales order processing and customer return activity cost for swing sets
Cost of Sale order processing = $15,000
Number of swing set sold = 2,500
Therefore Sales order Processing Activity per unit sale = Cost of Sale order processing/ Number of swing set sold = $15,000/ 2,500= $6.00
customer return activity cost = $8,000
Number of swing set sold = 2,500
Therefore customer return activity per unit sale= customer return activity cost / Number of swing set sold = $8,000/ 2,500= $3.20
ToTAL Activity cost per unit sale = Sales order Processing Activity cost per unit +customer return activity cost per unit = $6.00 + $3.20 = $9.20

The Whistling Straits Corporation needs to raise $74 million to finance its expansion into new markets. The company will sell new shares of equity via a general cash offering to raise the needed funds. The offer price is $45 per share and the company's underwriters charge a spread of 6 percent. If the SEC filing fee and associated administrative expenses of the offering are $825,000, how many shares need to be sold? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions, rounded to the nearest whole number, e.g., 1,234,567.)
Answer:
1,768,913 new stocks
Explanation:
the company needs to raise amount needed to finance expansion plus SEC's filing and administrative fees = $74,000,000 + $825,000 = $74,825,000
net amount received per stock issued = stock price x (1 - underwriting fee) = $45 x (1 - 6%) = $42.30 per stock
the company needs to issue = $74,825,000 / $42.30 per stock = 1,768,912.53 = 1,768,913 new stocks
Gabriel, Harris and Ida are members of Jeweled Watches, LLC. What are their options with respect to the management of their firm?
Answer:
They could be a Member-managed Limited Liability Company or a Manager-managed Limited Liability Company.
Explanation:
A Limited Liability Company is usually run by two or more partners. In managing this type of company, the members might choose to manage the company themselves. This is known as a member-managed Limited Liability Company. In such cases, if any member makes a decision in behalf of the business, with his signature appended to it, such a decision is considered legally binding on all other members of the company. Every member also has a say in the company's decision-making.
If they choose to be a manager-managed Limited Liability Company, they can appoint one or more non-members to manage the company for them. They do not interfere with how the manager chooses to run the company. They can still make important decisions but this is quite limited. However, they can choose to remove the manager/managers as they will.
the fair value of Blossom is estimated to be $820,800. The carrying value of Blossom’s net identifiable assets, including the goodwill, at year-end is $855,000. Prepare Cullumber’s journal entry, if necessary, to record impairment of goodwill.
Answer:
Cullumber Company
Journal Entry:
Debit Loss on Goodwill Impairment $34,200
Credit Goodwill $34,200
To record the loss on goodwill impairment.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculation:
Fair value = $820,800
Carrying value of net identifiable assets, including goodwill = $855,000
Goodwill impairment = $34,200 ($855,000 - $820,800)
b) Cullumber, which acquired Blossom is expected to check for the impairment of goodwill yearly. The impairment occurs when the carrying value of the net identifiable assets of Blossom is more than the fair value of Blossom. Generally Accepted Accounting Standards require the annual review of the fair value of goodwill to check for its impairment. By the above entry, the goodwill will be reduced by $34,200 and a loss debited in Cullumber's accounts.
Based on predicted production of 17,000 units, a company anticipates $255,000 of fixed costs and $216,750 of variable costs. The flexible budget amounts of fixed and variable costs for 15,000 units are (Do not round intermediate calculations):
Answer:
fixed costs = $255,000
variable costs = (15,000 / 17,000) x $216,750 = $191,250
Explanation:
A flexible budget is prepared in order to compare how budgeted revenues and costs actually worked out. In other words, if actual revenues and costs were similar to the budget previously prepared. A flexible budget adjusts actual results and helps management control how efficient the company was in following their budget. That is why a flexible budget is done after the budgeted period is over.
Fixed costs should not change (that is why they are fixed), but variable costs should change if the actual output was different than the budgeted output.

Lead time for one of your fastest-moving products is 24 days. Demand during this period averages 110 units per day. a) What would be an appropriate reorder point? nothing units (enter your response as a whole number). b) How does your answer change if demand during lead time doubles? nothing units (enter your response as a whole number). c) How does your answer change if demand during lead time drops in half? nothing units (enter your response as a whole number).
Answer:
a.) reorder point = 2,640 units
b.) reorder point = 5,280 units (reorder point doubles)
c.) reorder point = 1,320 units (reorder point drops in half)
Explanation:
Reorder point is the inventory level (point) at which action is taken (order placed) to replenish the stocked item. It is calculated as follows:
Reorder point = (Lead time × average daily sales) + safety stock
Lead time = 24 days
average daily sales = 110 units
safety stock = 0 (not given)
a.) reorder point = (Lead time × average daily sales) + safety stock
reorder point = (24 × 110) + 0 = 2,640 units
b.) if demand during lead time doubles:
lead time = 24 days
average daily sales = (110 × 2) = 220
∴ reorder point = 220 × 24 = 5,280 units
Therefore the reorder point doubles
c.) if demand during lead time drops in half:
lead time = 24 days
average daily demand = (110 ÷ 2) = 55 units
∴ reorder point = 24 × 55 = 1,320 units
Therefore the reorder point drops in half.
An employee produces 10 parts during a shift in which he made $90. What is the labor content of the product? $5 $900 $9 $0.111 $6
Answer:
$9
Explanation:
Calculation for the labor content of the product.
Using this formula
Labor content = Cash/Numbers of item produced
Where,
Cash=$90
Numbers of item produced=10 parts
Let plug in the formula
Labor content=$90/10
Labor content=$9
Therefore the labor content of the product will be $9

Time Warner shares have a market capitalization of billion. The company is expected to pay a dividend of per share and each share trades for . The growth rate in dividends is expected to be % per year. Also, Time Warner has billion of debt that trades with a yield to maturity of %. If the firm's tax rate is %, compute the WACC?
Complete Question:
Time Warner shares have a market capitalization of $50 billion. The company is expected to pay a dividend of $0.30 per share and each share trades for $30. The growth rate in dividends is expected to be 7% per year. Also, Time Warner has $15 billion of debt that trades with a yield to maturity of 8%. If the firm's tax rate is 30%, what is the WACC?
Answer:
7.5%
Explanation:
We can calculate WACC using the following formula:
WACC = Ke * MV of Equity / (MV of Equity + MV of Debt) + Kd * MV of Debt / (MV of Equity + MV of Debt)
Here:
Market Value of Equity is $50 billion
Market Value of Debt is $15 billion
Ke is % (Step 1)
Kd is 8%
By putting values, we have:
WACC = 8.07% * $50 Billion / ($50 Billion + $15 Billion) + 8% * $50 Billion / ($50 Billion + $15 Billion)
WACC = 7.5%
Step 1: Calculate Ke
We can calculate Ke using the following formula:
Ke = Do * (1 + g) / P + g
Here
Do is the dividend per share which is $0.3
g is the growth rate which is 7%
And
P is the market value of share which is $30 per share.
Ke = $30 * (1 + 7%) / $30 + 7% = 8.07%
Company ABC is required to pay their customers $20,000 after 3 years. Based on an annual effective interest rate of 4%, Andy, the company’s actuary, uses full immunization strategy to construct a portfolio of assets using a 2-year zero-coupon bond and a 4-year zero-coupon bond. Calculate the par amount for the 2-year zero-coupon bond assuming full immunization is met.
Answer:
Par amount = $9,615.39
Explanation:
The condition that must hold in order to meet full immunization are as follows:
Condition 1: PV(assets) = PV(liabilities)
Condition 2: MD(assets) = MD(liabilities) or P'assets = P'liabilities
Condition 3: There is one asset cash inflow before the liability cash outflow, and there is also one asset cash inflow after the liability cash outflow.
Where PV denotes Present Value and MD denotes Macaulay Duration.
PV(liabilities) = Amount required to pay / (1 + i)^n ............ (1)
Where;
Amount required to pay = $20,000
i = interest rate = 4%
n = number of years after = 3 years
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
PV(liabilities) = $20,000 / (1 + 4%)^3 = 17,779.93
Let;
A = Weight of two-year-zero-coupon bond in the portfolio
n = Macaulay Duration of n-year-zero-coupon bond
Therefore, we can construct a portfolio of assets using a 2-year zero-coupon bond and a 4-year zero-coupon bond as follows:
A(2) + (1 – A)(4) = 3
2A + 4 – 4A = 3
2A – 4A = 3 – 4
-2A = - 1
A = -1/-2
A = 0.5
We can now calculate the par amount as follows:
Par amount = PV(liabilities) * A * (1 + i)^t .............. (2)
Where t = 2 as the duration of the bond
Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:
Par amount = 17,779.93 * 0.5 * (1 + 4%)^2
Par amount = 17,779.93 * 0.5 * 1.04^2
Par amount = 17,779.93 * 0.5 * 1.0816
Par amount = $9,615.39
Therefore, the par amount for the 2-year zero-coupon bond assuming full immunization is met is $9,615.39.
