You are considering two ways of financing a spring break vacation. You could put it on your credit card, at 17% APR, compounded monthly, or borrow the money from youe parents, who want an interest payment of 6% every six months. which is the lower rate? (Dont round intermediate steps to decimal places)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Parent's rate is lower.

Explanation:

The lower rate will be the lower Effective Annual rate, the formula of which is;

[tex]EAR = (1 + interest rate/compounding frequency) ^{compounding frequency} - 1[/tex]

Credit Card

[tex]EAR = (1 + interest rate/compounding frequency) ^{compounding frequency} - 1[/tex]

[tex]EAR = (1 + interest rate/compounding frequency) ^{compounding frequency} - 1\\= ( 1 + \frac{0.17}{12})^{12} - 1\\= 0.184[/tex]

= 18.4%

From your parents

[tex]EAR = (1 + interest rate/compounding frequency) ^{compounding frequency} - 1\\= ( 1 + 0.07) ^{2} - 1\\= 0.1449[/tex]

= 14.5%

Parent's rate is lower.

Answers

Answer:

In the United States, Monetary Policy is implemented by the - 4. Federal Reserve

The Federal Reserve of the United States is in charge of implementing the Monetary Policy of the country. It is also in charge of regulating the financial industry, and acting as lender of the last result to prevent financial crisis.

3. Expansionary MonetaryPolicy - can be used to address a Recessionary Gap

During times of economic downturn, monetary policy tends to be expansionary: expanding the money supply to lower the interest rate, so that investment becomes cheaper, and the economy reactivates.

1. Contractionary Monetary Policy - can be used to address an Inflationary Gap.

When the money supply is too high, or has grown too fast, inflation often starts. For this reason, the fed usually implements contractionary monetary policy (less money supply, higher interest rate), in order to keep inflation from increasing.

c. To enact Contractionary Monetary Policy, the central bank will - sell bonds

When the fed sell bonds, it takes money from the market, reducing the money supply.

This - reduces - the amount of cash in the economy.

As explained above.

This will cause bond prices to - fall - and interest rates to - rise

The change in interest rates causes investment and consumption to - fall

shifting - Aggregate Demand

Contractionary monetary policy will cause interest rates to rise, making investment more expensive, and causing price hikes, this will reduce consumption.

This in turn will shift the Aggregate Demand curve to the left or inward.

The question is incomplete. The complete question is,

If a corporation issues 10,000 shares of $1 par value common stock for $9000, the journal entry would include a credit to:

A) Common Stock for $9000.

B) Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par—Common for $9000.

C) Common Stock for $10,000.

D) Retained Earnings for $10,000

Answer:

The common stock is credited for $10000. Thus option C is the correct answer

Explanation:

The journal entry to record the issuance of shares below par value will be,

Cash                                                                    9000 Dr

Paid in Cap in excess of par-Common stock   1000 Dr

              Common stock                                             10000 Cr

Thus, the common stock is credited for the complete amount of $10000.

The cash received is $9000 and there is a shortage of $1000 which is adjusted by debited the paid in capital in excess of par account.

Richards Corporation uses the FIFO method of process costing. The following information is available for October in its Fabricating Department: Units: Beginning Inventory: 80,000 units, 60% complete as to materials and 20% complete as to conversion. Units started and completed: 250,000. Units completed and transferred out: 330,000. Ending Inventory: 30,000 units, 40% complete as to materials and 10% complete as to conversion. Costs: Costs in beginning Work in Process - Direct Materials: $37,200. Costs in beginning Work in Process - Conversion: $79,700. Costs incurred in October - Direct Materials: $646,800. Costs incurred in October - Conversion: $919,300. Calculate the cost per equivalent unit of conversion.

Answers

Answer:

$2.90 per equivalent unit of conversion

Explanation:

equivalent units of conversion (under FIFO) = [units in beginning inventory x ( 1 - previous conversion rate)] + units started and completed + (units in ending inventory x conversion rate) = [80,000 x (1 - 20%)] + 250,000 + (30,000 x 10%) = 64,000 + 250,000 + 3,000 = 317,000 units

cost per equivalent unit of conversion = total conversion costs / total equivalent units of conversion = $919,300 / 317,000 units = $2.90 per equivalent unit

Numbers of right needed 5.8

C.Ex-rights price $40.82

Value of a right $1.18

D.Portfolio value before the right offer $84,000

Portfolio value after the right offer $84,000

Explanation:

A.

The maximum possible subscription price based on the information given will be $42 per Shares

The minimum price will be anything that is greater or higher that $0

B. Calculation for how many shares must be sold

Using this formula

Number of new shares =Journal of Financial Excess amount /Subscription price per share

Let plug in the formula

Number of new shares=$17,000,000/ $34 per share

Number of new shares=$500,000

Calculation for how many rights will it take to buy one share

Using this formula

Numbers of right needed=Shares Outstanding/Number of new Shares

Let plug in the formula

Numbers of right needed=$2,900,000/$500,000

Numbers of right needed=5.8

C. Calculation for the ex-rights price

Using this formula

Ex-rights price=(Numbers of right needed*Maximum possible subscription price +Subscription price per share)/(Numbers of right needed+ One shares)

Let plug in the formula

Ex-rights price=(5.8*$42+$34)/(5.8+1)

Ex-rights price=$277.6/6.8

Ex-rights price=$40.82

Calculation for the value of a right

Using this formula

Value of a right =maximum possible subscription price-Ex-rights price

Let plug in the formula

Value of a right=$42-$40.82

Value of a right=$1.18

D. Calculation for What is his portfolio value before the right offer

Using this formula

Portfolio value before the right offer= Shareholders Shares *Maximum possible subscription price

Let plug in the formula

Portfolio value before the right offer=2,000*42

Portfolio value before the right offer=$84,000

Calculation for What is his portfolio value after the right offer

Using this formula

Portfolio value after the right offer=(Shareholders Shares*Ex-rights price) +(Shareholders Shares*Value of a right)

Let plug in the formula

Portfolio value after the right offer=(2,000*40.82)+(2,000*1.18)

Portfolio value after the right offer=$81,640+$2,360

Portfolio value after the right offer=$84,000

Using the same information from before, please calculate the WACC of Correct Inc. assuming a risk free rate of 2.5%, a company Beta of 1.2 and a market risk premium of 6%.

Answers

Answer:

WACC = 21.7%

Explanation:

The firm is an all-equity finance firm which implies that the company uses only equity funds to finance its its operation without the use of debt. Therefore, the cost of the equity of the firm would be the same as its cost of capital (WACC)

The WACC can be determined using the the capital asset pricing model (CAPM). The CAPM relates the price of a share to the market risk or systematic risk. The systematic risk is that which affects all the all the economic agents, e.g inflation, interest rate e.t.c  

Using the CAPM , the required rate of return is given as follows:  

E(r)= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)  

E(r) - required return

β- Beta

Rm- Return on market  

Rf- Risk-free rate

Rm-Rf- Market risk premium

DATA

E(r) =? , Rf- 2.5%, Rm-Rf- 6% , β- 1.2

E(r) = 2.5% + 1.2× (16%) = 21.7 %

Cost of equity = 21.7%

Best Foods, Inc. has an unlevered cost of capital of 10 percent. The company generates EBIT of $4,250 per year and has a tax rate of 35 percent. If the firm adds $10,000 of debt to its capital structure, what is the value of the levered firm?

Answers

Answer:

The value of the levered firm $31,125

Explanation:

Value of Firm is the value of present value of expected future earning. It is calculated by dividing the earning after tax by the cost of capital while considering that the business will operate for the foreseeable future time.

EBIT                      $4,250.00

Less

Interest                 $0.00        

EBT                       $4,250.00

Tax 35% x 4250  $1,487.50

EAT                       $2,762.50

Cost of Capial       10%

Value of firm = EAT / Cost of Capital = $2,762.5 / 10% = $27,625

Debt after tax = $10,000 x ( 1 - 0.35 ) = $6,500

Value of Equity = Value of firm - Debt after tax = $27,625 - $6,500 = $21,125

Value of debt = $10,000

Value of levered Firm = $21,125 + $10,000 = $31,125

Answers

Answer:

Yield to Maturity = 3.97%

Explanation:

The yield to maturity is the discount rate that equates the price of the bond to the present value of its future cash flow receivable from it.

The yield on the bond can be determined as follows using the formula below:  

YM = C + F-P/n) ÷ 1/2 (F+P)  

YM-Yield to maturity-  

C- annual coupon  

F- Face Value  

P- Current Price  

DATA  

Coupon = coupon rate × Nominal value = 1,000 × 3 1/4%=  32.5

Face Value = 1000

YM-?, C- 32.5, Face Value - 1,000, P-940  

YM = (32.5+ (1000-940)/10) ÷ ( 1/2× (1000 + 940) )  

YM = 0.0397 × 100 =  3.97%

Henry​ Crouch's law office has traditionally ordered ink refills 50 units at a time. The firm estimates that carrying cost is 35​% of the ​$12 unit cost and that annual demand is about 235 units per year. The assumptions of the basic EOQ model are thought to apply. For what value of ordering cost would its action be​ optimal?

Answers

Answer:

ordering costs = $22.34

Explanation:

economic order quantity (EOQ) = √(2SD / H)

D = annual demand = 235H = holding cost = 35% x $12 = $4.20S = cost per order = ?EOQ = 50

50 = √[(2 x S x 235) / $4.20]

2,500 = (2 x S x 235) / $4.20

$10,500 = 2 x S x 235

S = $10,500 / (2 x 235) = $10,500 / 470 = $22.34

Any modern smartphone is hundreds of times more powerful than the first PCs, they are even more powerful than huge computers that existed back then. Currently high tech companies are trying to develop AI, and who knows what after. The only problem is that project lives tend to be very short, but that is part of the game. The profit margins of the firms that are successful are huge, just look at how Apple became the first company to be worth more than 2 trillions.

The HIJ bond has a current price of $800, a maturity value of $1,000, and matures in 5 years. If interest is paid semi-annually and the bond is priced to yield 8%, what is the bond's annual coupon rate

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The coupon rate is defined as the interest rate paid on a bond by its issuer for the term of the security.

Hence,

Par Value = $800

Face Value = $1,000

N = 5 x 2 = 10

Since the interest is semi annual

i = 8% / 2 = 4%

CF = $15.34

Coupon = $30.68 per year or 3.068%

Moorcroft’s assistant controller suggested that Moorcroft hire a part time collector to encourage customers to pay more promptly and to reduce the amount of uncollectible accounts. Sales are still 40% cash and 60% credit but the assistant controller predicted that this would cause credit sales to be collected 30% in the month of the sale, 50% in the month following sale, and 18% in the second month following sale; 2% are uncollectible.Prepare a schedule of expected collections from customers for June. How did these changes impact cash collections?

June           $370,000

Schedule of expected collections

For the month of June, 202x

Cash sales during June = $370,000 x 40% = $148,000

Collection from June's credit sales = $222,000 x 30% = $66,600

Collection from May's credit sales = $192,000 x 50% = $96,000

Collection from April's credit sales = $180,000 x 18% = $32,400

Total cash collections during June = $343,000

Since the cost of the part time collector is $1,000 per month, and the total uncollectible accounts reduce from 4% to 2%, which represents $7,400 for June's sales, I would recommend hiring the collector.

Required:
What was the bonds' market price on July 1, 2018?

Answers

Answer:

Price of bond= $75,075.58  

Explanation:

The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).  

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV  

The value of the bond for Akers Company  can be worked out as follows:  

Step 1  

PV of interest payments  

Semi annul interest payment  

= 6% × 100,000 × 1/2 = 3000

Semi-annual yield = 10%/2 =  5% per six months  

Total period to maturity (in months)  

= (2 × 10) = 20 periods

PV of interest =  

3000  × (1- (1+0.05)^( -20)/) 0.05 =  37,386.63  

Step 2  

PV of Redemption Value  

= 100,000 × (1.05)^(-20) =  37,688.95  

Price of bond  

Price of bond =  37,386.63   + 37,688.95   =  75,075.58  

Price of bond= $75,075.58

Answers

Answer:

$140,000

Explanation:

Sam corporation purchased a plot of land for $100,000

The cost to raze a building on the property is $50,000

Sam received $10,000 from the sale of scrap materials

$800,000 was spent by Sam to build a new plant in the site

The excavation costs was $30,000

Therefore, the amount that Samm should capitalize in its land account can be calculated as follows

= cost of land+ cost to raze a building on the property - sale of scrape materials

= $100,000 + $50,000 - $10,000

= $150,000-$10,000

= $140,000

Hence Samm should capitalize $140,000 in its land account.
