Mackenzie Company has a price of $38 and will issue a dividend of $ 2.00 next year. It has a beta of 1.3, the risk-free rate is 5.2%, and the market risk premium is estimated to be 4.9%. a. Estimate the equity cost of capital for Mackenzie. b. Under the CGDM, at what rate do you need to expect Mackenzie's dividends to grow to get the same equity cost of capital as in part (a)?
Answer and Explanation:
a. The computation of the equity cost of capital is shown below:
As we know that
Expected rate of return = Risk free rate + Risk Premium × Beta
= 5.20% + 4.90% × 1.30
= 11.57%
b. Now the rate at which the dividend should be grow is
Value of the stock = Expected dividend ÷ (cost of equity - growth rate)
$38 = $2 ÷ (11.57% - growth rate)
so, the growth rate is 6.31%

oneycutt Co. is comparing two different capital structures. Plan I would result in 39,000 shares of stock and $108,000 in debt. Plan II would result in 33,000 shares of stock and $324,000 in debt. The interest rate on the debt is 7 percent. a. Ignoring taxes, compare both of these plans to an all-equity plan assuming that EBIT will be $160,000. The all-equity plan would result in 42,000 shares of stock outstanding. What is the EPS for each of these plans
Answer:
All equity plan:
EPS = $160,000 / 42,000 = $3.81
Plan I:
EPS = [$160,000 - ($108,000 x 7%)] / 39,000 = $152,440 / 39,000 = $3.91
Plan II:
EPS = [$160,000 - ($324,000 x 7%)] / 33,000 = $137,320 / 33,000 = $4.16
Plan II is better since the resulting EPS is higher than the other alternatives.

The risk-free rate of return is 9.0%, the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 14%, and the stock of Xyrong Corporation has a beta coefficient of 2.0. Xyrong pays out 50% of its earnings in dividends, and the latest earnings announced were $20 per share. Dividends were just paid and are expected to be paid annually. You expect that Xyrong will earn an ROE of 18% per year on all reinvested earnings forever
a. What is the intrinsic value of a share of Xyrong stock? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Intrinsic valueS
b-1. If the market price of a share is currently $108, and you expect the market price to be equal to the intrinsic value one year from now, calculate the price of the share after one year from now. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Price
b-2. What is your expected one-year holding-period return on Xyrong stock? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Expected one-year holding-period return
Answer:
$109
$118.81
18.26%
Explanation:
Intrinsic value can be determined using the constant growth dividend model
according to the constant dividend growth model
price = d1 / (r - g)
d1 = next dividend to be paid
r = cost of equity
g = growth rate
dividend, growth rate and cost of equity are not given and they have to be calculated
growth rate = retention rate x ROE
Retention rate = 1 - payout ratio = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5 = 50%
0.5 x 18% = 9%
According to the capital asset price model: cost of equity = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)
9% + 2x (14% - 9%) = 19%
dividend = payout ratio x earnings per share
0.5 x $20 = $10
Intrinsic value = [tex]\frac{10( 1 + 0.09)}{0.19 - 0.09}[/tex] = $109
Stock price in a year
[tex]\frac{10(1 + 0.9)^{2} }{0.19 - 0.09}[/tex] = 118.81
(dividend return + price return)
price return is the return on investment as a result of appreciation or depreciation of share price
Dividend return is the return on investment from dividend earned
price return = price at the end of the year - price at the beginning of the year
Calculate amortization expense
In early January, Burger Mania acquired 100% of the common stock of the Crispy Taco restaurant chain. The purchase price allocation included the following items: $4 million, patent; $5 million, trademark considered to have an indefinite useful life; and $6 million, goodwill. Burger Mania's policy is to amortize intangible assets with finite useful lives using the straight-line method, no residual value, and a five-year service life.
What is the total amount of amortization expense that would appear in Burger Mania's income statement for the first year ended December 31 related to these items? (Enter your answers in dollars, not in millions.
Answer: $800,000
Explanation:
The total amount of amortization expense that would appear in Burger Mania's income statement for the first year ended December 31 related to these items will be:
Ammortization value = Patent value / Useful life
= $4,000,000 / 5
= $800,000
Therefore, the ammortization value is $800,000 per year.

In some cases it should be noted that stocks trading could be unethical as a result of trader engaging in trading because they are getting information from insider in order to influence their trading.
Before negotiating a long-term construction contract, build- ing contractors must carefully estimate the total cost of completing the project. Benzion Barlev of New York University proposed a model for total cost of a long-term contract based on the normal distribution(Journal of Business Finance and Accounting, July 1995). For one particular construction contract, Barlev assumed total cost, x, to be normally distributed with mean $850,000 and standard deviation $170,000. The revenue, R, promised to the contractor is $1,00,000.
Required:
a. The contract will be profitable if revenue exceeds total cost. What is the probability that the co ntract will be profitable for the contractor?
b. What is the probability that the project will result in a loss for the contractor?
c. Suppose the contractor has the opportunity to renegotiate the contract. What value of R should the contractor strive for in order to have a .99 probability of making a profit?
Answer:
Benzion Barlev of New York UniversityNEGOTIATION OF A LONG-TERM CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT
a. The probability that the contract will be profitable for the contractor is:
= 81%
b. The probability that the project will result in a loss for the contractor is:
= 19%
c. The value of R that the contractor should strive for in order to have a .99 probability of making a profit is:
= $1,246,100.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Mean total cost (x) = $850,000
Standard deviation = $170,000
Revenue = $1,000,000
Probability of being profitable = (R - x)/std deviation
= ($1,000,000 - $850,000)/$170,000
= $150,000/$170,000
= 0.882
From Z table, 0.882 = 0.81057 = 81%
Probability of loss = 19% (100 - 81%)
To have a 99% (0.99) probability of making a profit, Z value = 2.33 from the Z table:
(R - x)/std deviation = 2.33
(R - x) = 2.33 * $170,000
= $396,100
(R - $850,000) = $396,100
R = $396,100 + $850,000
R = $1,246,100

Computing Straight-Line and Double-Declining-Balance Depreciation
On January 2, 2016, Dechow Company purchases a machine to help manufacture a part for one of its key products. The machine cost $306,180 and is estimated to have a useful life of six years, with an expected salvage value of $32,760.
Compute each year's depreciation expense for 2016 and 2017 for each of the following depreciation methods.
a. Straight-line.
b. Double-declining balance.
Answer:
a.
2016 = $45,570
2017 = $45,570
b.
2016 = $102,080
2017 = $68,014
Explanation:
Straight line method
Straight line method charges a fixed amount of depreciation
Depreciation Charge = (Cost - Salvage Value) ÷ Estimated useful life
2016
Depreciation Charge = $45,570
2017
Depreciation Charge = $45,570
Double declining method
Double declining method charges a higher amount of depreciation at the early years and less in the later years
Depreciation Charge = 2 x SLDP x BVSLDP
2016
Depreciation Charge = 2 x 16.67 % x $306,180 = $102,080
2017
Depreciation Charge = 2 x 16.67 % x ($306,180 - $102,080) = $68,014
You are the manager for a Pizza restaurant. Currently, your restaurant pre-makes pizzas that are ordered the most to increase the number of pizzas being made on time for your customers. Over time, many customers have complained that their pizzas were cold upon delivery and not fresh, requesting refunds or remakes of their pizza. Your location is losing money from these wasteful practices, therefore, you want to create a Kanban based on the following basic principles:
1. A later process tells an earlier process when new items are required. This means that unless a customer orders a pizza, no pizzas will be made. Pull!
2. The earlier process produces what the later process needs.
3. No Items can be made without a Kanban card (order request). This allows the process to be transparent so everyone knows what is going on.
4. Defects are not passed on to the next stage.Create a Kanban board for your pizza company that delivers. You must have 4-6 columns with headings for each.
Required:
Decide what your Kanban cards will represent. Set Rules for your Kanban.
Answer:
RULES OF KANBAN BOARD
Yellow – A Slice of Pizza
• Blue – Full Pizza
• Green – Soda
• Green jumps from Queue to Pack only
• No pizza will be delivered without quality check
• Pizza will return to the backlog, if it is found with inferior quality during quality check
• A unique token number will be given for each order
• Orders with multiple pizza or a combo order will be given same unique token number
• Pizza will be prepared in the order of token number
• Token number will include initials “C” for carry out, “D” for dine in
THE ATTACHED IMAGE HAS THE REPRESENTATIONS OF KANBAN CARDS.
The following information pertains to Lightning Inc., at the end of December: Credit Sales $ 20,000 Accounts Payable 10,000 Accounts Receivable 11,800 Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts 400 credit Cash Sales 20,000 Lightning uses the aging method and estimates it will not collect 7% of accounts receivable not yet due, 20% of receivables up to 30 days past due, and 46% of receivables greater than 30 days past due. The accounts receivable balance of $11,800 consists of $7,500 not yet due, $2,300 up to 30 days past due, and $2,000 greater than 30 days past due. What is the appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense
Answer:
The appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense is $3,345.20.
Explanation:
The appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense can be calculated as follows:
Bad debt expense = (Percentage of accounts receivable not yet due it will not collect * Accounts receivable not yet due) + (Percentage of receivables up to 30 days past due it will not collect * Amount of receivables up to 30 days past due) + (Parentage of receivables of receivables greater than 30 days past due it will not collect * Amount of receivables greater than 30 days past due) - Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (credit) ……………………… (1)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:
Bad debt expense = (7% * $7,500) + (20% + $2,300) + (46% * $2,000) - $400 = $3,345.20
Therefore, the appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense is $3,345.20.
The Wiz Co. owes $60 to its bondholders for the payment of principal and interest. The company expects to have a cash flow of $136 if the economy continues as it is but that cash flow will decrease to $54 if the economy enters a recession. Should the company ever face the real possibility of bankruptcy, it will incur legal and other fees of $30. What amount will the bondholders be paid in the case of a recession
Answer:
$24
Explanation:
Cashflow If economy as it is = $136
Cashflow if economy in recession = $54
In the event that the company goes bankrupt due to the recession, it will have to pay $30 in legal and other costs, so the company will set aside $30.
So, Bondholders payment = Cashflow in recession - legal & other cost
= $54 - $30
= $24
Hence, the bondholders will be paid $24 in the case of a recession.

Review each of the following independent sets of conditions. For each condition, calculate the (1) sample rate of deviation, and use the AICPA sample evaluation tables to identify the (2) upper limit rate of deviation, and (3) allowance for sampling risk (n = sample size, d = deviations. ROO = risk of overreliance). (Round your answers to 1 decimal place.)
a. n = 100. d = 8. ROO = 5%.
b. n = 100. d = 4. ROO = 5%.
c. n = 100. d = 8. ROO = 10%.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. n = 100. d = 8. ROO = 5%.
i. Sample rate of deviation will be:
= Number of Deviations / Sample size
= 8/100
= 8%
ii. Upper limit rate of deviation = 14%
iii. Allowance for sampling risk will be:
= Upper Limit Rate of Deviation - Sample rate of devaition

Skyler Manufacturing recorded operating data for its shoe division for the year. Sales $4,500,000 Contribution margin 500,000 Controllable fixed costs 200,000 Average total operating assets 900,000 How much is controllable margin for the year
Answer:
Controllable margin= $300,000
Controllable margin in %= 33.3%
Explanation:
Controllable margin is sales revenue less controllable variable costs and fixed cost.
Controllable margin= Sales revenue - controllable variable cost - controllable fixed costs
Controllable margin= contribution margin - fixed costs
= 500,000 - 200,000= 300,000
Controllable margin in %= 300,000/900,000 × 100 =33.3%
Controllable margin in %= 33.3

The Smith family wants to relocate to a neighborhood with better schools before their three-year-old goes to kindergarten. They talked with Byron about properties he has for sale in neighborhoods they would like to live in. They also mentioned to Byron that they both work and may need someone to help with in-home care for their child. Byron gave them Taylor’s name to call about childcare. The Smiths also said they were having a hard time getting loan approval, so Byron suggested that they call Travis. Which best describes the jobs performed by Byron, Taylor, and Travis?
a) Byron is a Customer Service Representative, Taylor is a Child Care Worker, and Travis is a Loan Counselor.
b) Byron is a Real Estate Manager, Taylor is a Nanny, and Travis is a Loan Counselor.
c) Byron is a Real Estate Manager, Taylor is a Preschool Teacher, and Travis is a Customer Service Representative.
d) Byron is a Home Counselor, Taylor is a Nanny, and Travis is a Property Manager.
Answer:
the correct answer is B)
Explanation:
Given that they spoke to Byron about properties that he wants to sell, that means he is a Real Estate Manager. Taylor came up because they needed in-home care. That makes Taylor a Nanny because Nannies are professionals who take care of babies in their own homes.
Loan counselors have no other major business besides advising people on issues relating to taking up a loan. Therefore that makes Travis a loan Counselor.

You do not start saving money until age 46. On your 46th birthday you dutifully invest $10,000 each year until you finish your deposits when you reach the age of 65 (you make the last deposit on your 65th birthday). The annual interest rate is 8% that you earn on your deposits. Your brother starts saving $10,000 a year on his 36th birthday but stops making deposits after 10 years. He then withdraws the compounded sum when he reaches age 65. How much more money will your brother have than you at age 65?
Answer:
$217,600
Explanation:
The computation of the more money is shown below:
As we know that
The Future value of the annuity is
= P × { (1+r)^n - 1} ÷ r
= $10,000 × (1+.08)^20 - 1) ÷ 0.08
= $457,619.64
For 36 years to 46 years,
FV = $10,000 × (1+.08)^10 - 1) ÷ 0.08
= $144,865.62
Now
FV = PV(1+r)^n
= $144,865.62× (1+.08)^20
= $675,212.47
Now the more amount would be
= $675,212.47 - $457,619.64
= $217592.83
= $217,600
Adamson Corporation is considering four average-risk projects with the following costs and rates of return:
Project Cost Expected Rate of Return
1 $2,000 16.00%
2 3,000 15.00
3 5,000 13.75
4 2,000 12.50
The company estimates that it can issue debt at a rate of rd = 10%, and its tax rate is 30%. It can issue preferred stock that pays a constant dividend of $5 per year at $48 per share. Also, its common stock currently sells for $33 per share; the next expected dividend, D1, is $4.00; and the dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5% per year. The target capital structure consists of 75% common stock, 15% debt, and 10% preferred stock.
Required:
a. What is the cost of each of the capital components?
b. What is Adamson's WACC?
Answer:
a. Cost of debt = Interest * (1 - Tax rate)
= 10%*(1 - 0.30)
= 7%
Cost of preferred stock = Dividend/ Issue price
= 5/48
= 10.42%
Cost of common stock (Cost of retained earnings) = (D1/P0) + g
= (4/33) + 0.07
= 0.12 + 0.07
= 0.19
= 19%
b. Fund Cost Weight Cost * Weight
Debt 7% 0.15 1.05%
Preferred stock 10.42% 0.10 1.042%
Retained earnings 19% 0.75 14.25%
WACC 16.342%
Chesapeake Inc. acquired a registered trademark for $600,000. The trademark has a remaining legal life of 5 years but can be renewed every 10 years for a nominal fee. Chesapeake does not expect to renew the acquired trademark when the legal life is over. What amount of amortization expense should Chesapeake record for the trademark in the current year?
a. $0
b. $15,000
c. $40,000
d. $120,000
Answer:
d. $120,000
Explanation:
Amortization expense = Cost ÷ Estimated useful life
therefore
Amortization expense = $600,000 ÷ 5 = $120,000
Note ; In this case the legal life is the same as the useful life.
On January 8, 2012, Speedway Delivery Service purchased a truck at a cost of $65,000. Before placing the truck in service, Speedway spent $4,000 painting it, $2,500 replacing tires, and $8,000 overhauling the engine. The truck should remain in service for five years and have a residual value of $6,000. The truck’s annual mileage is expected to be 22,000 miles in each of the first four years and 12,000 miles in the fifth year—100,000 miles in total. In deciding which depreciation method to use, David Greer, the general manager, requests a depreciation schedule for each of the depreciation methods (straight-line, units-of-production, and double-declining-balance).
Requirements
1. Prepare a depreciation schedule for each depreciation method, showing asset cost, depreciation expense, accumulated depreciation, and asset book value.
2. Speedway prepares financial statements using the depreciation method that reports the highest net income in the early years of asset use. For income tax purposes, the company uses the depreciation method that minimizes income taxes in the early years. Consider the first year that Speedway uses the truck. Identify the depreciation methods that meet the general manager’s objectives, assuming the income tax authorities permit the use of any of the methods.
Answer:
Speedway Delivery Service

December 31, 2016 $79,500 $4,303 $73,500 $6,000
2. The straight-line method reports the highest net income in the early years while the double-declining-balance method minimizes the income taxes in the early years.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
January 8, 2012:
Purchase of a delivery truck = $65,000
Cost of painting the truck = 4,000
Cost of replacing the tires = 2,500
Cost of overhauling the engine 8,000
Total costs = $79,500
Residual value = 6,000
Depreciable amount = $73,500
Estimated useful life = 5 years
Straight-line depreciation Method:
Annual depreciation expense = $14,700 ($73,500/5)
Units-of-production Method:
Depreciation rate per mile = $0.735 ($73,500/100,000)
For 22,000 miles, depreciation expense = $16,170 ($0.735 * 22,000)
For 12 ,000 miles, depreciation expense = $8,820 ($0.735 * 12,000)
Double-declining-balance method:
Depreciation rate = 100/5 * 2 = 40%
First year's depreciation expense = $31,800 ($79,500 * 40%)
Declined balance = $47,700 ($79,500 - $31,800)
Second year's depreciation expense = $19,080 ($47,700 * 40%)
Declined balance = $28,620 ($47,700 - $19,080)
Third year's depreciation expense = $11,448 ($28,620 * 40%)
Declined balance = $17,172 ($28,620 - $11,448)
Fourth year's depreciation expense = $6,869 ($17,172 * 40%)
Declined balance = $10,303 ($17,172 - $6,869)
Fifth year's depreciation expense = $4,303 ($10,303 - $6,000)
Norris Company has the following capital structure: Common stock, $1 par, 100,000 shares issued and outstanding. On October 1, 2020, the company declared a 5% common stock dividend when the market price of the common stock was $15 per share. The stock dividend will be distributed on October 15, 2020, to stockholders on record on October 10, 2020. Upon declaration of the stock dividend, Norris Company would record:
Answer: Debit to retained earnings of $75000
Explanation:
Based on the information given, the stock dividend will be:
= 100,000 shares x 5%
= 100000 × 0.05
= 5,000 shares.
Since the market price is $15 per share, then the retained earnings will be:
= $15 × 5000
= $75000
Stock dividend distributable will be:
= 5,000 x $1
= $5000
Paid in capital in excess of par = $75000 - $5000 = $70000
The journal entry will be:
Debit Retained earnings $75000
Credit Stock dividend distributable $5,000
Credit Paid in capital in excess of par $70000
