The difference between a low-cost provider strategy and a focused low-cost strategy is Multiple choice question. the company's willingness to accept a lower profit margin. the uniqueness of the product or service. the size of the company's targeted buyer group. the length of the value chain.
Answer:
the size of the company's targeted buyer group.
Explanation:
Low cost strategies are used by sellers to gain more patronage of their products. It gives them competitive advantage of having low prices and this will in turn increase sales.
The low-cost provider strategy involves a reduction in prices of all the products a company sells in all locations while still making a profut. An appeal is made to a broad market to attract customers in mass.
The focused low-cost strategy on the other hand involves cost reduction in a targeted niche. It does not appeal to the broad market but rather to a specific customer profile.
So the difference between these two strategies is the size of the company's targeted buyer group.
Cold Goose Metal Works Inc. just reported earnings after tax (also called net income) of $95,000,000, and a current stock price of $14.75 per share. The company is forecasting an increase of 25% for its after-tax income next year, but it also expects it will have to issue 2,800,000 new shares of stock (raising its shares outstanding from 5,500,000 to 8,300,000). If Cold Goose’s forecast turns out to be correct and its price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio does not change, what does the company’s management expect its stock price to be one year from now? (Note: Round intermediate calculations to four decimal places. Round the expected stock price to two decimal places.)
Answer:
$12.22 per share
Explanation:
The computation of the stock price one year from now is shown below;
Current EPS = Net Income ÷ Number of shares
= $95,000,000/5,500,000
= $17.2727
Now
P/E Ratio = Market Price per share ÷ Earnings per share
= $14.75 ÷ 17.2727
= 0.8539 times
Now
Revised EPS = $95,000,000 × 1.25 ÷ 8,300,000
= $14.3072
So, the Price is
= 14.3072 × 0.8539
= $12.22 per share

Answer:
B) 11%
Explanation:
We need to determine the total amount to invest in all the stocks in the first place as computed below:
Lowes= $28.80*1.53=$44.06
Wal-Mart=$47.90*4.17=$199.74
Intel=$19.60*5.77 =$113.09
Boeing=$75.00*0.79=$59.25
Total amount invested in the portfolio=$44.06+$199.74+$113.09+$59.25
Total amount invested in the portfolio=$416.14
Lowes' portion of the portfolio=amount invested in Lowes/total portfolio amount
Lowes' portion of the portfolio=$44.06/$416.14
Lowes' portion of the portfolio=11%

a. The present discounted value of a stream of returns can be calculated in real or nominal terms.
b. The higher the one-year interest rate, the lower the present discounted value of a payment next year.
c. Interest rates are normally expected to be constant over time.
d. Bonds are a claim to a sequence of constant payments over a number of years.
e. The yield curve normally slopes up.
Answer:
a. The present discounted value of a stream of returns can be calculated in real or nominal terms. TRUE
This is true because the present value of returns can be calculated using nominal rates which do not account for inflation, or using real rates which will account for inflation.
b. The higher the one-year interest rate, the lower the present discounted value of a payment next year. TRUE
Higher interest rates discount payments faster because they discount by dividing the payment so a higher rate would divide the payment more and lead to a lower present value.
c. Interest rates are normally expected to be constant over time. FALSE
Interest rates change over time in response to economic conditions.
d. Bonds are a claim to a sequence of constant payments over a number of years. TRUE
As a bondholder, you are entitled to payments over the life of the bond which means that it is a claim to constant payment over a number of years.
e. The yield curve normally slopes up. TRUE
The yield curve slopes upward to represent that interest rates increase in future.

The horizon value is calculated by discounting the free cash flows beyond the horizon date and any tax savings at the WACC. The horizon value must always be more than 20 years in the future. The horizon value is calculated by discounting the free cash flows beyond the horizon date and any tax savings at the levered cost of equity.
Answer:
The horizon value is calculated by discounting the free cash flows beyond the horizon date and any tax savings at the WACC
Explanation:
Horizon value
This is simply known as the value of a security. It is regarded as present value usually at future point in time of all cash flows when we stable growth rate is anticipated forever. Its simply known also as present value of all free cash flows beyond the horizon date discounted back to the horizon date. It is also called the terminal value due to it being regarded as end of the explicit forecast period or the continuing value due to the fact that it is the value if operations continue to be used rather than be liquidated.
The growth in free cash flows is usually not constant so modification has to be made to the constant growth formula to find the value of free cash flows beyond the horizon date discounted back to the horizon Formula to calculate horizon value.
Mathematically;
HV = V option at time t =FCFt(1+g)
(WACC-g)
The formula for Terminal Value using the Gordon Growth method includes: Terminal Value = Final Year Free Cash Flow * (1 + Growth Rate) / (Discount Rate - Growth Rate)

An investor purchased on margin Orange Computer for $30 a share. The stock's price subsequently increased to $47 a share at which time the investor sold the stock. The margin requirement is 60 percent and the interest rate on borrowed funds is 7 percent. What would have been the return if the investor had not bought the stock on margin
Answer:
56.67%
Explanation:
Purchase cost = 30 dollars
Margin x price = 0.60x30 = $18
30-18 = $12
Profit = $47 - $30 - 0.07(12)
= 16.16
Percentage earned = (16.16 /18) * 100
= 89.78%
Profit from the trade
= 47-30
= 17
Percentage earned = 17/30 * 100
= 56.67%
The return would have been 56 67% if the investor had not done this.

What is the budgeted materials needed in pounds for January
Answer:
Total direct material needed in pounds= 101,400 pounds
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Each finished unit requires 3 pounds of raw material K that costs $3.00 per pound.
Each month's ending raw materials inventory should equal 35% of the following month's budgeted materials.
The January 1 inventory for this material is 25,200 pounds.
Production:
January= 24,000 units
February= 28,000 units
Direct material budget:
Production= 24,000*3= 72,000 pounds
Desired ending inventory= (28,000*0.35)*3= 29,400 pounds
Total direct material needed in pounds= 101,400 pounds
Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Purchases= 101,400 - 25,200
Purchases= 76,200 pounds
Direct material purchase cost= 76,200*3= $228,60

⇒ [tex]E(x)=\Sigma xP(x)[/tex]
By substituting the values, we get
⇒ [tex]=0\times 0.85+500\times 0.04+1000\times 0.04+3000\times 0.03+5000\times 0.02+8000\times 0.01+10000\times 0.01[/tex]
= [tex]430[/tex] ($)
Thus, the above is the correct answer.
Elliott Credit Corp. wants to earn an effective annual return on its consumer loans of 15.7 percent per year. The bank uses daily compounding on its loans. What interest rate is the bank required by law to report to potential borrowers
Answer:
the rate of interest needed to report to the potential borrower is 14.59%
Explanation:
The computation of the rate of interest needed to report to the potential borrower is given below:
= ((1 + rate of interest per year)^(1 ÷ number of days in a year) - 1) × number of days in a year
= ((1 + 15.7%)^(1 ÷ 365) -1) × 365
= 14.59%
hence, the rate of interest needed to report to the potential borrower is 14.59%
