The firm receives an average of $20,000 in checks per day. The weighted average delay in clearing the checks received is 3 days. Meanwhile, the firm writes an average of $17,000 in checks to pay its suppliers per day. The usual clearing time for the checks the firm wrote is 2 days. The current interest rate is 0.015 percent per day. What is the most the firm should be willing to pay today (in a lump sum today) to eliminate its float entirely? A) 3000 B) 26000 C) 34000 D) 37000 E) 60000

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$26000

Explanation:

from the question;

check per day; 20000

delay: 3 days

checks to pay suppliers; 17000

clearing time 2 days

we first calculate collection flaot:

collection flaot = average amount of check x outstanding days

= 20000 x 3

= 60000

now we have to calculate disbursements float:

average amount of check x days to clear

= 17000 x 2

= 34000

with these two values we can get the net float

= collection flaot - disbursements float

= 60000 - 34000

= $26000

One year ago, you purchased a stock at a price of $55.20 per share. Today, you sold your stock at a loss of 18.63 percent. Your capital loss was $12.62 per share. What was the total dividends per share paid on this stock over the year

Answers

Answer:

Dividend = $2.34

Explanation:

Purchase Price = $55.20

Loss on stock = 18.63% of $55.20 = $10.28

Capital Loss = $12.62

Dividend = Capital Loss - Total Loss

Dividend = $12.62 - $10.28

Dividend = $2.34

Answers

Answer:

The Puyer Corporation

The total budgeted fixed selling and administrative expenses for February is:

$174,800

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Advertising                                       $ 51,200

Executive salaries                            $ 61,200

Depreciation on office equipment $ 21,200

Other                                               $ 41,200

Total fixed selling & admin. exp.   $174,800

b) The Puyer Corporation's fixed selling and administrative expenses are always fixed in total but not per unit of Deb within the short-term because they do not depend on Deb's volume of production or sale.  They are unlike the variable aspect of expenses that are fixed per unit of Deb but vary in total.  Those expenses which do not vary with the level or volume of sales or production activity of Deb are regarded as fixed because the level or volume of sales or production activity of Deb does not change their totals.  But, in the long-term, Puyer's fixed expenses will vary in total as well as per unit of Deb produced or sold.

Investing $1,500,000 in TQM's Channel Support Systems initiative will at a minimum increase demand for your products 1.7% in this and in all future rounds. (Refer to the TQM Initiative worksheet in the CompXM Decisions menu.) Looking at the Round 0 Inquirer for Andrews, last year's sales were $163,290,917. Assuming similar sales next year, the 1.7% increase in demand will provide $2,775,946 of additional revenue. With the overall contribution margin of 34.1%, after direct costs this revenue will add $946,598 to the bottom line. For simplicity, assume that the demand increase and margins will remain at last year's levels. How long will it take to achieve payback on the initial $1,500,000 TQM investment, rounded to the nearest month

Answers

Answer:

Payback = 19 month

Explanation:

Firm has invested in TQM's Channel Support systems of $1,500,000, It will increase demand of product by 1.7%.

Last years sales revenue was $163,290,917, a 1.7% increase will mean the sales will be:

= $163,290,917 * (1+0.017)

= $163,290,917 * (1.017)

= $166,066,862.59

Thus increase in sales revenue is:

= $166,066,862.589 - $163,290,917

= $2,775,945.589

Now consider contribution margin. From Total Sales, direct variable costs are deducted to get total contribution. The Overall contribution margin is It is 34.1%.

So extra contribution due to 1.7% increase in sales is = $2,775,945.589 * 34.1%

= $946,597.45

Thus increase in contribution margin will also increase profit to the same extent as there is no addition in fixed cost due to this project. So firm will be able to recover $946,597.45 of initial investment of $1,500,000 in one year.

Pay back is the time required to recover this full initial investment. It ascertained by dividing $1,500,000 amount by the net addition in profit per year.

Payback = $1,500,000 / $946,597.45

Payback = 1.585 per year * 12 month

Payback = 19.02 month

Payback = 19 month approximately

Slow​ 'n Steady,​ Inc., has a stock price of ​, will pay a dividend next year of ​, and has expected dividend growth of per year. What is your estimate of Slow​ 'and Steady cost of equity​ capital

Answers

Answer:

Slow​ 'and Steady cost of equity​ capital is 11%.

Explanation:

Note: The question is not complete as the important data are committed. The full question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Slow n' steady Inc, has a stock price of $30, will pay a dividend next year of $3, and has expected dividend growth of 1% per year. what is your estimate of slow n steady's cost of equity capital?

The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:

The cost of equity can be calculated using the Gordon growth model (GGM) formula for calculating current stock price

The GGM has the assumption that there will be a stable dividend growth rate year after year forever.

Tje GGM formula is given as follows:

P = d1 / (r - g) ……………………………………… (1)

Where;

P = Current share price = $30

d1 = Next year dividend = $3

r = Required rate of return or cost of equity = ?

g = Expected dividend growth rate = 1%, or 0.01

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for r, we have:

30 = 3 / (r - 0.01)

r - 0.01 = 3 / 30

r - 0.01 = 0.10

r = 0.10 + 0.01

r = 0.11, or 11%

Therefore,  Slow​ 'and Steady cost of equity​ capital is 11%.

Consider a project with a first cost (investment) of $250,000, an annual O&M cost of $50,000, annual revenue of $160,000, and a salvage value of $40,000 after a 10-year life. Find the annual worth of the project assuming an interest of 12% per year.

Answers

Answer:

$68,030

Explanation:

According to the given situation, the computation of annual worth is shown below:-

Annual worth = -250,000 (A/P, 12%, 10) - $50,000 + $160,000 + $40,000 (A/F, 12%, 10)

= -$250,000 × 0.1770 - $50,000 + $160,000 + $40,000 × 0.0570

= -$44,250 - $50,000 + $160,000 + $2,280

= $68,030

So, the right answer is $68,030

Compute the net present value for this machine using a discount rate of 4% and assuming that cash flows occur at each year-end. (Hint: Salvage value is a cash inflow at the end of the asset’s life.)

Answers

Answer:

1) depreciation expense per year = $146,500

2) net income:

years 1 - 4 = $149,450

net cash flows:

year 0 = -$620,000

year 1 = $295,950

year 2 = $295,950

year 3 = $295,950

year 4 = $329,950

3) payback period = 2.09 years

4) accounting rate of return = 24.1%

5) net present value (NPV) = $483,330.83

Explanation:

purchase cost of the machine $620,000

depreciation expense per year = ($620,000 - $34,000) / 4 = $146,500

expected annual sales $2,190,000

direct materials $494,000

direct labor $686,000

overhead (excluding depreciation) $476,000

S&A expenses $174,000

total costs (excluding depreciation) = $1,830,000

income taxes 30%

net income per year = ($2,190,000 - $1,830,000 - $146,500) x 70% = $149,450

net cash flow (years 1 - 3) = $149,450 + $146,500 = $295,950

net cash flow (year 4) = $149,450 + $146,500 + $34,000 = $329,950

payback period = $620,000 / $295,950 = 2.09 years

accounting rate of return = $149,450 / $620,000 = 24.1%

NPV, using a financial calculator = $483,330.83

Kathy and Annise are a married couple who file jointly. In the current year, they have net ordinary income of $10,000 from a partnership interest in which they do not materially participate. They also have a net loss of $30,000 from a rent house in which they actively participate. Their adjusted gross income (AGI) exclusive of these investments is $120,000. What is their AGI after taking into account these investments

Answers

Answer:

$100,000

Explanation:

As Kathy and Annise are a married couple who file jointly, their revised AGI can be calculated by deducting a net loss from the adjusted gross income.

DATA

Current AGI = $120,000

Rental loss = $30,000

Partnership gain = $10,000

Revised AGI = Current AGI - Net loss

Revised AGI = 120,000 – 20,000(w)

Revised AGI = 100,000

Working

Net loss = Rental loss – partnership gain

Net loss = $30,000 - $10,000

Net loss = $20,000

NOTE: Kathy and Annise can deduct 20,000 loss against other income as they materially participate in rental activities.

If a bank has required reserves of $27,000,000, excess reserves of $41,000,000, and deposits of $90,000,000 with a required reserve ratio of 30 percent, how much can the bank lend out?

Answers

Answer:

$41,000,000

Explanation:

Excess reserves can be described as the amount of money that is kept by a bank. This amount of money can be given out to individuals or different organisations in the form of a loan, this is done to generate more profits as a certain amount of interest is being added to the amount of cash that will be given out.

In the scenario described above, the bank has an excess reserve of $41,000,000. Therefore, the bank will be willing to lend out $41,000,000 as loan.

a. Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources and are not reported as expenditures in the fund-level statements.
b. Amounts reported as expenditures in the statement of activities are reported as capital assets in the fund-level statements.
c. Debt proceeds provide current financial resources in the statement of activities, but are reported as long-term liabilities in the fund-level statements
d. Depreciation of general fixed assets is not reported as an expense in the statement of activities, but it is reported as an expense in the fund-level

Answers

Answer:

a. Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources and are not reported as expenditures in the fund-level statements.

Explanation:

Governments maintain a statement of activities that are carried out, and fund-level statements are also maintained to track expenses of government.

When there is a disparity between the two, a plausible explanation will be that some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources and are not reported as expenditures in the fund-level statements.

For example some long term project that is carried out by the government may be treated by creating a budget. These expenses will not be recognized in the current expenses that make up fund-level expenses.

Discount factor is 0.985. Stock XYZ is selling for $40 a share. An American option on this stock with a strike price of $38 is trading at $0.25 per share. If it is known that this option is priced above its intrinsic value, what type of option is it?

Answers

Answer:

Put option

Explanation:

We have current price 40dollars - strike price 38dollars = $2. The question says the stock is trading at $0.25 per share. Since 0.25 is higher than 0 it is a put option. And the intrinsic value is $2.

The put option gives one the right to sell a particular number of shares at a price that has been set which is referred to as the strike price before a certain date.

The Absolute Zero Co. just issued a dividend of $2.70 per share on its common stock. The company is expected to maintain a constant 5.6 percent growth rate in its dividends indefinitely. If the stock sells for $54 a share, what is the company's cost of equity?

Answers

Answer:

10.88%

Explanation:

According to the given situation, the computation of the company's cost of equity is shown below:-

Stock price = (Current dividend × (1 + Growth rate)) ÷ (Cost of equity - Growth rate)

$54 = ($2.70 × (1 + 0.056)) ÷ (Cost of equity - 0.056)

Cost of equity = $2.8512 ÷ $54 + 0.056

= 10.88%

Therefore for computing the cost of equity we simply applied the above formula.

On January 1, Year 2, Kincaid Company's Accounts Receivable and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts carried balances of $71,000 and $2,900, respectively. During the year Kincaid reported $190,000 of credit sales. Kincaid wrote off $1,750 of receivables as uncollectible in Year 2. Cash collections of receivables amounted to $227,700. Kincaid estimates that it will be unable to collect one percent (1%) of credit sales.
The net realizable value of receivables appearing on Kincaid's Year 2 balance sheet will amount to:
a) $29,650.
b) $28,500.
c) $33,300.
d) $31,550.

Answers

Answer:

b) $28,500.

Explanation:

The computation of the net  realizable value of receivables is shown below:

As we know that

Net realizable value = Gross account receivable - allowance for doubtful debts

where,

Gross account receivable is

= Beginning balance of the account receivable + credit sales - written off amount - collections

= $71,000 + $190,000 - $1,750 - $227,700

= $31,550

And, the allowance for doubtful debts is

= Beginning balance of  allowance for doubtful debts - written off + allowance needed

= $2,900 - $1,750 + $190,000 × 1%

= $3,050

So, the net realizable value is

= $31,550 - $3,050

= $28,500

hence, the correct option is b. $28,500

Eakins Inc.'s common stock currently sells for $15.00 per share, the company expects to earn $2.75 per share during the current year, its expected payout ratio is 70%, and its expected constant growth rate is 6.00%. New stock can be sold to the public at the current price, but a flotation cost of 8% would be incurred. By how much would the cost of new stock exceed the cost of retained earnings

Answers

Answer:

1.12%

Explanation:

By how much would the cost of new stock exceed the cost of retained earnings = Cost of new equity - Cost of retained earnings

Cost of retained earnings = ((2.75 * 70%) / 15) + 6.00%  

Cost of retained earnings = ((2.75 * 0.7) / 15) + 0.06

Cost of retained earnings = 0.1283 + 0.06

Cost of retained earnings =0.1883

Cost of retained earnings = 18.83%

Cost of new equity= ((2.75 * 70%) / (15 * (1 - 8%) ) + 6.00%

Cost of new equity= 19.95%

Hence, Cost of new equity - Cost of retained earnings

= 19.95% - 18.83%

= 1.12%
