Suppose you are the money manager of a $5.21 million investment fund. The fund consists of four stocks with the following investments and betas: Stock Investment Beta A $ 320,000 1.50 B 780,000 (0.50) C 1,260,000 1.25 D 2,850,000 0.75 If the market's required rate of return is 10% and the risk-free rate is 5%, what is the fund's required rate of return

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 8.65%

Explanation:

First find the weights of the stocks:

Total = 320,000 + 780,000 + 1,260,000 + 2,850,000

= $‭5,210,000‬

Stock A:

= 320,000 / ‭5,210,000‬

= 6.14%

Stock B:

= 780,000 / ‭5,210,000‬

= 14.97%

Stock C:

= 1,260,000 / ‭5,210,000‬

= 24.18%

Stock D:

= 2,850,000 / ‭5,210,000‬

= 54.70%

Then calculate Portfolio Beta.

Portfolio beta = (6.14% * 1.50) + (14.97% * - 0.5) + (24.18% * 1.25) + (54.72% * 0.75)

= 0.7299

Required rate of return using Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)

= Risk free rate + Beta * (Market return - risk free rate)

= 5% + 0.7299 * (10% - 5%)

= 8.65%

The Sheridan Acres Inn is trying to determine its break-even point during its off-peak season. The inn has 50 rooms that it rents at $36 a night. Operating costs are as follows:

Salaries $4,000 per month
Utilities $1,500 per month
Depreciation $1,300 per month
Maintenance $832 per month
Maid service $6 per room
Other costs $12 per room

Required:
a. Determine the inn's break-even point in number of rented rooms per month.
b. Determine the inn's break-even point in dollars.

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost and the fixed costs:

Unitary variable cost= 6 + 12= $18

Total fixed costs= 4,000 + 1,500 + 1,300 + 832

Total fixed costs= $7,632

Now, to calculate the break-even point both in units and dollars, we need to use the following formulas:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 7,632 / (36 - 18)

Break-even point in units= 424 per month

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

Break-even point (dollars)= 7,632 / (18/36)

Break-even point (dollars)= $15,264

In this simulation, theoretical utilization of the intensive care unit (ICU) is calculated as the flow rate of patients that arrive for service at the ICU in a given unit of time divided by the ICU’s capacity to serve customers in that same unit of time. You can think about this as demand/capacity. What is the theoretical utilization of the ICU if the mean inter-arrival time is 4 hour(s), the mean length of stay is 6 hour(s), and there are 4 beds in the ICU?

Answers

Answer:

The theoretical utilization of the ICU is:

= 0.25 or 25%

Explanation:

Inter-arrival time or flow rate of patients that arrive for service at the ICU = 4 hours

Mean length of stay = 6 hours

ICU's capacity to serve customers in 6 hours = 4*6 = 24 bed-hours

Total demand = 6 hours

Therefore, the theoretical utilization = flow rate of patients that arrive for service at the ICU in a given unit of time divided by ICU's capacity to serve customers in that same unit of time

= 6 hours/24 bed-hours

= 0.25

On December 30, 2017, the Board of Directors of Blue Manufacturing, Inc. committed to a plan to discontinue the operations of its Owl division. Blue estimated that Owl's 2018 operating loss would be $750,000 and that the fair value of Owl's facilities was $450,000 less than their carrying amounts. The estimate for the 2018 operating loss turned out to be correct. Owl's 2017 operating loss was $1,000,000, and the division was actually sold for $400,000 less than its carrying amount in 2018. Blue's effective tax rate is 35%. In its 2017 income statement, what amount should Blue report as loss from discontinued operations

Answers

Answer:

$942,500

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what amount should Blue report as loss from discontinued operations

Using this formula

Loss from discontinued operations=[(Operating loss+Fair value)*Tax rate]

Let plug in the formula

Loss from discontinued operations=[($1,000,000+ $450,000)* (100% - 35% tax rate)]

Loss from discontinued operations=$1,450,0000*65%

Loss from discontinued operations= $942,500

Therefore what amount should Blue report as loss from discontinued operations is $942,500

Kayak Co. budgeted the following cash receipts (excluding cash receipts from loans received) and cash payments (excluding cash payments for loan principal and interest payments) for the first three months of next year.

Cash Receipts Cash payments

Prepare monthly cash budgets for January, February, and March.

Answers

Answer:

Ending Cash Balance as are follows:

January = $40,000

February = $67,535

March = $40,000

Also, Loan Balance End of Month as follows:

January = $26,500

February = $0

March = $38,465

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the cash budget.

In the attached excel file, the following calculations are made:

January loan repayment = January Preliminary cash - January Interest expense - Minimum required cash balance = $94,300 - $800 - $40,000 = $53,500

February Loan repayment = January Loan Balance End of the Month = $26,500

March Additional Loan = Minimum required cash balance - March Preliminary cash balance = $40,000 - $1,535 = $38,465

From the attached excel file, we have Ending Cash Balance as follows:

January = $40,000

February = $67,535

March = $40,000

And also, Loan Balance End of Month as follows:

January = $26,500

February = $0

March = $38,465

Bob Lee, a division manager for JTCL Ltd has been given a mandate to control costs. Bob’s division is called the Murray Division. After taking an Operations Management class he remembered that a good place to start would be to get a current measure of his division's productivity. The Murray Division is comprised of 5 employees who are paid $10 hourly and work 40 hours per week. The division used 75 pounds of material during the week he is studying. Each week JTCL Ltd assigns an overhead charge of $1,000 to the Murray Division. Material costs $10 per pound. The division completed 9000 units of product last week. Which of the following best describes last week’s labor productivity at the Murray Division?
a. 45 units per labor hour
b. 4.5 units per labor hour
c. 3.75 units per labor hour
d. 45 units per labor hour
e. 37.5 units per labor hour

Answers

Answer:

a. 45 units per labor hour.

Explanation:

No. of units produced is 9000 units

No. of labor hours per week is 40 hours

There are total 5 labors so the hours per labor is 40/ 5 = 8 hours per labor.

No. of units produced by each labor is 9000 / 5 = 1800 units per labor

The unit per labor hour is 1800 / 8 hours = 225 units

These units are further distributed among 5 workers so each labor has produced 225 / 5 = 45 units per week.

The  last week’s labor productivity at the Murray Division is option a. 45 units per labor hour.

Calculation of last week’s labor productivity:

Since the No. of units produced is 9000 units and the No. of labor hours per week is 40 hours and there are total 5 laborers

so the hours per labor should be = 40/ 5 = 8 hours per labor.

Now

No. of units produced by each labor should be

= 9000 / 5

= 1800 units per labor

Now

The unit per labor hour is

= 1800 / 8 hours

= 225 units

Since there are 5 workers so per worker it should be

= 225 / 5

= 45 units per week.

Value of a security guard for Jack = $50 per month

Value of a security guard for Jill = $90 per month

Total value of a security guard for both Jack and Jill = $140 ($50 + $90)

Cost of hiring a guard = $120 per month

Jack's monthly earnings = $4,000

Jill's monthly earnings = $8,000

Total monthly earnings for both Jack and Jill = $12,000

a. Proportional tax of 1 percent on income = $120 ($12,000 * 1%)

Jack will pay $4,000 * 1% = $40

Jill will pay $8,000 * 1% =    $80

Total = $120

b. Net benefit scheme:

Jack will pay $50/$140 * $120 = $43

Jill will pay $90/$140 * $120 =    $77

The most important consequence of credit constraints on individuals is difficulty in obtaining gainful employment. an ability to retire at an earlier age. lower interest rates on bank loans. an inability to smooth consumption.

Answers

Answer:

Banking regulations Lower interest rates on bank loans.

Explanation:

Being credit constrained means that one is unable to borrow because the lenders do not think the individual is capable of paying back.

A person's credit history, savings level and collateral are all very useful in determining if they have the ability to pay back debt. Banking regulations do not directly lead to a credit constraint.

Lower interests on bank loans is only given to more creditworthy entities whom the bank feels will be able to pay back. A credit constrained person is risky and will therefore draw a higher rate from banks to balance that risk.

Credit constraints mean the inability of a person to borrow money from the market. the banking regulations and lower interest rates are the exceptions for persons credit-constrained.

What is credit constrained?

It is the inability of a borrower to borrow more money from the lender because, in the opinion of the lender, the borrower does not have the creditworthiness that he/she would pay the debt in time.

The country of Lessidinia has a tax system identical to that of the United States. Suppose someone in Lessidinia bought a parcel of land for 20,000 foci (the local currency) in 1960 when the price index equaled 100. In 2002, the person sold the land for 100,000 foci, and the price index equaled 600. The tax rate on nominal gains was 20 percent. Compute the taxes on the nominal gain and the change in the real value of the land in terms of 2002 prices to find the after-tax real rate of capital gain.

Answers

Answer: -30%

Explanation:

The Nominal gain is:

= 100,000 - 20,000

= 80,000 foci

Tax on nominal gain:

= 20% * 80,000

= 16,000 foci

After tax nominal value of land:

= 100,000  - 16,000

= 84,000 foci

The real value given the price index is:

= 84,000 / 600 * 100

the correct answer will be B because of the sample score

The required z-score for the given sample mean would be -0.83. which is the correct answer would be an option (C).

What is Z -score?

A Z-score is defined as the fractional representation of data point to the mean using standard deviations.

Given the mean µ= 200 and standard deviation σ = 24. The cholesterol levels for a random sample of n = 9 individuals are measured sample mean is 180.

To determine the Z-score for the given sample mean

⇒ z-score = (X-ц )/σ

Here,

ц = 200

σ = 24

X = 180

Substitute the values in the above formula,

⇒ z-score = (180 - 200)/24

⇒ z-score = -20 /24

⇒ z-score = -0.833

Therefore, the required z-score for the given sample mean would be -0.83.

c. large sums of money are spent on advertising that produces no consumer benefit

Explanation:

Critics consider advertising to be a waste because they believe that there is a large amount of financial resources being spent on advertising that will not be converted into benefits for the consumer, that is, they believe that it is a lot of money spent on communication marketing that it should be spent on product development, for example, in the form of converting investments into physical benefits that add greater value to the product and greater satisfaction for the consumer.

But a company that wants to become competitive and well positioned in the market, must allocate financial resources so that both things can be carried out, because advertising is extremely necessary to attract and retain potential consumers, since there is currently a great offer of them products available on the market and the company needs to develop a strategy that attracts consumers to its product, which can occur through well-developed advertising that generates consumer engagement and identification with the offered product.

Job specialization can be defined as a strategic process which typically involves the ability of employees working in an organization to develop specific skills, knowledge, great expertise or professionalism and experience to perform their duties, tasks or job functions effectively and efficiently.

In order to gain the requisite skills, expertise and knowledge for job specialization, it is very important for the employees to have undergone an extensive training and a good number of years in work experience.

The primary purpose of job specialization is to increase efficiency and productivity because the employees are able to specialize in the use of specific tools (equipments) to accomplish their tasks, as well as limit the level of error or mistakes in the production process.

In Business management, method analysis can be defined as the study of the detailed process for the performance of a job i.e how a job is done. Thus, method analysis gives a detailed report on the tasks involved in the performance of a job and how they are to be done.

Basically, methods analysis is particularly valuable when it is used on jobs that:

0n the basis of the behavior of the firm's stock, you believe that the beta of the firm is 1.30. Assuming that the rate of return available on risk-free investments is 5% and that the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 15% what is the net present value of the project

Answer:

NPV= -$32.58

Explanation:

The net present value of the investment is the cash inflow from the investment discounted at required rate of return. The required rate of return can be determined using the the formula below:

Ke= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)  

Ke =? , Rf- 5%,, Rm-15%, β- 1.30

Ke=5% + 1.30× (15-5)=  18%

The NPV = Present value of cash inflow - initial cost

 =  A×(1-(1+r)^(-10)/r  - initial cost

A- 15, r-18%

NPV = 15× (1-1.18^(-10)/0.18 - 100= -32.58

NPV = -$32.58
