A perpetual bond with a par value of $1,000 and a coupon rate of 7.75% has a current market price of $900. What is its yield to maturity
a. 9.32%
b. 8.33%
c. 7.92%
d. 9.45%
e. 8.61%
Answer: e. 8.61%
Explanation:
This is a perpetual bond so the price is calculable by;
Price = Coupon / Yield to Maturity
Coupon = 7.75% * 1,000
= $77.50
900 = 77.50/ YTM
900 * YTM = 77.50
YTM = 77.50/900
= 8.61%

On January 1, 2016, Cobb Co. received, for the sale of a parcel of land, a ten-year note receivable having a face amount of $2,000,000 and a stated interest rate of 8% payable annually each December 31. The market rate of interest for this type of note is 10%. Present value factors are as follows: At 8% At 10% Present value of 1 for 10 periods 0.46319 0.38554 Present value of an ordinary annuity of 1 for 10 periods 6.71008 6.14457
Answer: $1,754,211
Explanation:
8% of $2,000,000 will be payable every year for 10 years;
= 2,000,000 * 8%
= $160,000
The amount received from selling the land is;
= Present value of interest payable annually + Present value of Note
= (160,000 * Present value interest factor of annuity, 10 years, 10%) + (2,000,000 * present value interest factor, 10 years, 10%)
= (160,000 * 6.14457) + (2,000,000 * 0.38554)
= $1,754,211

Explain the actions the FED should take if it wanted to move from a point on the short-run Phillips curve representing high unemployment and low inflation to a point representing lower unemployment and higher inflation.
Answer:
The short run Phillips curve states that there is an inverse relationship between unemployment and inflation in the short run.
Since unemployment is high and the inflation rate is low, in order for the FED to decrease unemployment and increase inflation it must decrease the interest rate. That way, the economy should kick off and start growing which should decrease unemployment and at the same time will increase inflation.

Biogenetics, Inc. plans to retain and reinvest all of their earnings for the next 30 years. Beginning in year 31, the firm will begin to pay a $30 per share dividend. The dividend will not subsequently change. Given a required return of 18%, what should the stock sell for today?
Answer:
the stock sell for today is $1.16
Explanation:
The calculation of the stock sell for today is as follows;
Value after year 31 is
= (D31 ÷ Required return)
= $30 ÷ 0.18
= $166.666667
Now the current value is
= Future dividend and value × Present value of discounting factor(rate%,time period)
= $30 ÷ 1.18^31 + $166.666667 ÷ 1.18^31
= $1.16
Hence, the stock sell for today is $1.16

Kim's Bridal Shoppe has 10,200 shares of common stock outstanding at a price of $36 per share. It also has 215 shares of preferred stock outstanding at a price of $87 per share. There are 520 bonds outstanding that have a coupon rate of 5.5 percent paid semiannually. The bonds mature in 17 years, have a face value of $1,000, and sell at 93 percent of par. What is the capital structure weight of the common stock?
Answer:
26.43 %
Explanation:
The Capital Structure is based on the Market Weight of the Sources of Finance as shown below :
Equity market value = Number of shares × price/share
Equity market value = 10,200 × $36
Equity market value = $367,200
Current debt value = Number of bonds × price/bond
Current debt value = 520 × (1930)
Current debt value = $1,003,600
Preferred stock value = Number of shares × price/share
Preferred stock value = 215 × $87
Preferred stock value = $18,705
Total capital = Common equity value + Debt value + Preferred stock value
Total capital = $367,200 + $1,003,600 + $18,705
Total capital = $1,389,505
Weight of Equity = Equity value / Total capital
Weight of Equity = $367,200 / $1,389,505
Weight of Equity = 26.43 %
A firm plans to grow at an annual rate of at least 28%. Its return on equity is 43%. Suppose the firm has a debt-equity ratio of 1/4. What is the maximum dividend payout ratio it can maintain without resorting to any external financing? (Do not round intermedlate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
34.88%
Explanation:
the sustainable growth rate = return on equity x retention rate
retention rate = 1 - dividend payout rate
so,
sustainable growth rate = return on equity x (1 - dividend payout rate)
1 - dividend payout rate = sustainable growth rate / return on equity
1 - dividend payout rate = 28% / 43% = 0.65116279
1 - 0.65116279 = dividend payout rate
0.3488 = 34.88% = dividend payout rate

Fabri Corporation is considering eliminating a department that has an annual contribution margin of $37,000 and $74,000 in annual fixed costs. Of the fixed costs, $18,500 cannot be avoided. The annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company of eliminating this department would be:___________.
a. ($37,000)
b. $37000
c. ($18,500)
d. $18,500
Answer:
Effect on income= $18,500 increase
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Contribution margin= $37,000
Fixed costs= $74,000
Unavoidable fixed costs= $18,500
We will consider only the avoidable fixed costs:
Avoidable fixed costs= 74,000 - 18,500= $55,500
Current loss= 37,000 - 55,500= -$18,500
Now, the effect on the income of eliminating the department:
Effect on income= current loss + contribution margin
Effect on income= -18,500 + 37,000
Effect on income= $18,500 increase
Kevin bought 205 shares of Intel stock on January 1, 2020, for $52 per share, with a brokerage fee of $105. Then, Kevin sells all 205 shares for $76 per share on December 12, 2020. The brokerage fee on the sale was $155. What is the amount of the gain/loss Kevin must report on his 2020 tax return
Answer: $4660
Explanation:
Firstly, we need to calculate the amount that Kevin realized on the shares which will be:
= (205 × $76) - $155
= $15580 - $155
= $15425
The purchase value will be calculated as:
= (205 × $52) + $105
= $10660 + $105
= $10765
Therefore, the gain that Kevin must report on his 2020 tax return will be:
= $15425 - $10765
= $4660

The annual coupon rate is 2%, but coupons are paid semiannually. The yield to maturity was 1.85%. If the par value is $100,000, how much did you pay for this bond
Answer:
Hi the number of years to maturity for this Bond is missing. I have tried to search for the full question online but could not find it. However, I will help you get the technique to solve this problem.
The amount of money you pay for the Bond is its Present Value (PV) normally called Current Price of the Bond.
To calculate this, you should have the other remaining elements of the Bond which are : Coupon rate (PMT) , Period of payments within a year (P/YR), Yield To Maturity (YTM), Par Value (Future Value of Bond).
So assuming that the Bond in question matures in 5 years the calculation will be as follows :
Pmt = (1,000,000 × 2%) ÷ 2 = $10,000
Ytm = 1.85 %
Fv = $1,000,000
P/yr = 2
N = 5 × 2 = 10
Pv = ?
You would pay $1,007,132 for this bond

Brace Corporation uses direct labor-hours as the cost driver in its normal costing system. Brace budgeted that it would use 21,600 direct-labor hours during the year. At the end of the year, actual direct labor-hours for the year were 20,400 hours, the actual manufacturing overhead for the year was $506,920, and Brace had $20,440 of underapplied overhead. The budgeted manufacturing overhead must have been: Round to the nearest dollar.
Answer:
total estimated overhead costs for the period= $515,095.2
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the allocated overhead:
Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead
20,440 = 506,920 - allocated overhead
allocated overhead= $486,480
Now, we can determine the predetermined overhead rate:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
486,480= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate*20,400
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 486,480/20,400
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $23.847 per direct labor hour
Finally, the estimated overhead for the period:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
23.847= total estimated overhead costs for the period/21,600
total estimated overhead costs for the period= 21,600*23.847
total estimated overhead costs for the period= $515,095.2
Which of the following is a potential disadvantage when considering long-term loans as an option for raising capital?
OA. They are available to firms with a weak credit rating.
O B. Not all companies can qualify for loans and acceptable terms.
O C. Such loans can restrict the way an organization uses its assets.
D. They require diluting ownership in organizations.
O E. They cannot provide substantial sums of money to businesses.
Answer:
A potential disadvantage when considering long-term loans as an option for raising capital is:
D. They require diluting ownership in organizations.
Explanation:
This potential disadvantage becomes a reality when the long-term loans are converted into shares. At this point, the ownership in the organization is diluted. Ownership dilution reduces the percentage of the ownership of shares in the entity. The investment becomes less attractive to the original owners since more owners are brought on board.
A potential disadvantage when considering long-term loans as an option for raising capital is D. They require diluting ownership in organizations.
A long-term loan refers to a loan that is paid for more than three years. This is different from a short-term loan that is usually expected to be paid back within a few years.
A disadvantage when considering long-term loans as an option for raising capital is that require diluting ownership in organizations. When one doesn't pay back on time, one may lose some percentage of ownership in the company.

The expected rate of return on Rewind Industries is 2.5 times the 12 percent expected rate of return from the market. What is Rewind's beta if the risk-free rate is 6 percent
Answer:
beta = 6
Explanation:
the CAPM formula is:
Required return = risk free + (beta x market premium)
market return = 12% = 6% x (1 x 6%)
risk premium = 12% - 6% = 6%
required return = 12% x 2.5 = 30%
risk free = 6%
beta x market premium = 30% + 6% = 36%
beta = 36% / 6% = 6, which means that this stock is very risky and very volatile

Suppose payments were made at the end of each month into an ordinary annuity earning interest at the rate of 4.5%/year compounded monthly. If the future value of the annuity after 11 years is $55,000, what was the size of each payment?
Answer:
The size of each payment was $322.78.
Explanation:
This can be calculated using the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity as follows:
FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (1)
Where,
FV = Future value of the amount after 11 years = $55,000
M = Monthly payment = ?
r = Monthly interest rate = 4.5% / 12 = 0.045 / 12 = 0.00375
n = number of months = 11 years * 12 = 132
Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for M, we have:
$55,000 = M * (((1 + 0.00375)^132 - 1) / 0.00375)
$55,000 = M * 170.394706737074
M = $55,000 / 170.394706737074
M = $322.779979808101
Rounding to 2 decimal places, we have:
M = $322.78
Therefore, the size of each payment was $322.78.
