You own a portfolio that has a total value of $145,000 and a beta of 1.31. You have another $58,000 to invest and you would like the beta of your portfolio to decrease to 1.19. What does the beta of the new investment have to be in order to accomplish this

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 0.89

Explanation:

The total portfolio beta is a weighted average of the constituent security betas.

145,000 + 58,000 = $203,000

The total portfolio beta of 203,000 should have a beta of 1.19.

Proportion of New investment = 58,000/203,000

= 28.57%

Proportion of old portfolio = 145,000/203,000

= 71.43%

(0.7143 * 1.31) + (0.2857 * x) = 1.19

0.9357 + 0.2857x = 1.19

0.2857x = ‭0.2543‬

x= 0.89

What is the total stockholders' equity based on the following account balances? Common Stock $375,000 Paid-in-capital in excess of Par 90,000 Retained earnings 190,000 Treasury Stock 15,000

Answers

Answer: $640,000

Explanation:

The total Stockholders Equity for a company is calculated by;

= Common Stock + Paid-in-capital in excess of Par + Retained Earnings - Treasury Stock

Treasury Stock reduces stockholder equity as the company bought the shares back from the stockholders.

= 375,000 + 90,000 + 190,000 - 15,000

= $640,000

One of the potential pitfalls of real options analysis is that managers may have the incentive and know-how to game the system.
a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

True

This is true and a pitfall because managers particularly those in investment businesses can take actions that benefit themselves or act based on self interests. This is because they are open to incentives and also have the know how so they can easily make changes. This is bad for real options analysis. It is an agency issue.

Rose Hill Trading Company is expected to have EPS in the upcoming year of $8. The expected ROE is 18%. An appropriate required return on the stock is 14%. If the firm has a retention ratio of 70%, its dividend in the upcoming year should be _________. A. $1.12 B. $1.44 C. $2.40 D. $5.60

Answers

Answer: C. $2.40

Explanation:

Earnings Per Share (EPS) refers to how much of the net income is due to the shareholders and is calculated by dividing the net income by the number of shareholders.

The retention ratio refers to how much of the net income will be held back by the company and not declared as dividends.

The dividends will therefore be the percentage of the EPS that is not held back.

= 8 * ( 1 - 0.7)

= $2.40

Answers

Answer:

$81, $75, and $69

a. Market value of existing shares = 215000 * $81 = $17415000

   Value of New shares issued = 48000 * $81 =        $3888000

                                                                                     $21,303,000

Price after issue of new shares = 21,303,000 / (215000 + 48000)

= 21,303,000 / 263,000

= $81

Conclusion: No changes ($0 per share

b. Market value of existing shares = 215000 * $81 = $17415000

   Value of New shares issued = 48000 * $75 =        $3600000

                                                                                     $21015000

Price after issue of new shares = 21015000 / (215000 + 48000)

= 21,015,000  / 263,000

= $79.90

Conclusion: There is a decrease in amount (81 - 79.90) = $1.10 per share

c. Market value of existing shares = 215000 * $81 = $17415000

   Value of New shares issued = 48000 * $69 =        $3312000

                                                                                     $20,727,000

Price after issue of new shares = 20,727,000 / (215000 + 48000)

= 20,727,000 / 263,000

= $78.81

Conclusion: There is a decrease in amount (81 - 78.81) = $2.19 Per share

Advertising expenses 2,500
Office expenses 1,500
Miscellaneous expenses 5,300
Total $17,550
Delivery and commission expenses vary proportionally with budgeted sales in dollars. Advertising and office expenses are fixed. Miscellaneous expenses include $2,000 of fixed costs. The rest varies with budgeted sales in dollars. The budgeted sales for Year 2 are $330,000.
What will be the value of miscellaneous expenses in the Year 2 selling expense budget?
A. $6,200
B. $4,200
C. $3,600
D. $3,960

Answers

Answer:

$5,960

Explanation:

Fixed portion of Miscellaneous expenses = $2,000

Variable portion of Miscellaneous expenses = ($5,300 - $2,000) / $275,000

= $3,300 / $275,000

= $0.012 of sales

Miscellaneous expenses in the Year 2 selling expense budget = (Budgeted sales * Variable portion) + Fixed portion

= ($330,000 * $0.012) + $2,000

=  $3,960 + $2,000

Answer the following questions. 1. A company has an inventory of 1,200 assorted parts for a line of missiles that has been discontinued. The inventory cost is $71,000. The parts can be either​ (a) remachined at total additional costs of $24,000 and then sold for $32,000 or​ (b) sold as scrap for $5,000. Which action is more​ profitable? Show your calculations. 2. A​ truck, costing $104,000 and​ uninsured, is wrecked its first day in use. It can be either​ (a) disposed of for $15,500 cash and replaced with a similar truck costing $105,500 or​ (b) rebuilt for $85,500​, and thus be​ brand-new as far as operating characteristics and looks are concerned. Which action is less​ costly? Show your calculations.

Answers

Answer:

1) the $71,000 is considered a sunk cost because it cannot be recovered.

option A yields $32,000 - $24,000 = $8,000 (this is more profitable)

option B yields $5,000

2) the $104,000 is also considered a sunk cost because it cannot be recovered

option A results in $105,500 - $15,500 = $90,000 in costs

option B costs $85,500 (this option is less costly)

A. Increase $254,000
B. Decrease $19,000
C. Increase $527,000
D. Increase $19,000

Answers

Answer:

B. Decrease $19,000

Explanation:

The computation of the amount affect the operating income is shown below

But before that first we need to find the new operating income

Total operating income for Cat Food  $280,000

Less: Fixed costs for Dog Food           ($52000)

Add: rented per year                             $26000

New net operating income                  $254000

Now decrease in net operating income is

= operating income - new operating income

= $273,000 - $254,000

= $19,000

At the end of the current period, Emma looks over her inventory and finds that she has 800 units (products) in her basement, 25 of which were damaged by water and cannot be sold. 180 units in her van, ready to deliver per a customer order, terms FOB destination. 200 units out on consignment to a friend who owns a retail store. How many units should Emma include in her company’s period-end inventory?

Answers

Answer: 1155

Explanation:

The solution guess thus to calculate the units in Ending Inventory:

Units of product on hand: 800 units

Add: Units in transit 180

Add: Units on consignment 200

Less: Damaged units 25

The number of units that Emma should include in her company’s period-end inventory will be:

= (800+180+200) - 25

= 1180 - 25

= 1155

A profit-maximizing firm in a competitive market that is producing on a production curve where the marginal product of labor is diminishing also has:

Answers

Answer: A. a downward-sloping labor demand curve.

Explanation:

If the marginal product of labor is diminishing then that means that for every extra worker hired, less products are made than the last worker. As a result of this, companies will not want to pay high wages to workers because they would be bringing in less revenue when hired.

This will cause a downward-sloping labor demand curve that shows that as more workers are hired, the company would like to pay less wages because each new worker is only producing less than the last worker.

Explanation:

The New York Stock Exchange, NYSE Specialist (DMM) and Floor Trader system is the model for trading used by American Stock Exchange, AMEX (NYSE American) and Philadelphia Stock Exchange (PHLX).

However, National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations (NASDAQ) isn't modeled after the NYSE Specialist (DMM) and Floor Trader system, rather it is based on an all electronic market. Also, Better Alternative Trading System (BATS) started as an Electronic Communications Network (ECN) and as such is typically an all electronic market, which has transformed magnificently into an exchange according to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Hence, the American Stock Exchange, AMEX (NYSE American) and Philadelphia Stock Exchange (PHLX) uses a designated market maker (DMM) and Floor Trader system just like the New York Stock Exchange as their primary market maker.

Kenny, Inc., is looking at setting up a new manufacturing plant in South Park. The company bought some land six years ago for $7.9 million in anticipation of using it as a warehouse and distribution site, but the company has since decided to rent facilities elsewhere. The land would net $10.7 million if it were sold today. The company now wants to build its new manufacturing plant on this land; the plant will cost $21.9 million to build, and the site requires $940,000 worth of grading before it is suitable for construction.

Kemp Corporation manufactures a variety of parts for use in its product. The company has always produced all of the necessary parts for its product, including all of the electronic circuits. The company sells 18,000 units of its product per year. An outside supplier has offered to sell electronic circuits to the company for a cost of $40 per unit. To evaluate this offer, the company has gathered the following information relating to its own cost of producing the electronic circuits internally: Per Unit 18,000 Units per Year Direct materials $ 18 $ 324,000 Direct labor 9 162,000 Variable manufacturing overhead 2 36,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead, traceable 9 * 162,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead, allocated 12 216,000 Total cost $ 50 $ 900,000 *One-third supervisory salary; two-thirds depreciation of special equipment (no resale value). Suppose that if the electronic circuits were purchased, the division supervisor position could be eliminated. Fixed manufacturing overhead will be allocated to other products made by the company. Also, the company could use the freed production capacity to launch a new product. The segment margin of the new product would be $180,000 per year. Given this new assumption, how much would be the financial advantage of buying 18,000 electronic circuits from the outside supplier

Answers

Answer:

financial advantage of purchasing from outside vendor = $36,000

Explanation:

outside vendor offers 18,000 units at $40 per unit = $720,000

current production costs (for 18,000 units):

Direct materials $324,000 Direct labor $162,000 Variable manufacturing overhead $36,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead, traceable $162,000 ($54,000 avoidable)Fixed manufacturing overhead, allocated $216,000 (not avoidable)Total cost $900,000

total avoidable costs = $576,000

additional revenue generated by freed facilities = $180,000

financial advantage of purchasing from outside vendor = ($576,000 + $180,000) - $720,000 = $36,000

perline, inc., has balance sheet equity of $6.2 million.At the same time, the income statement shows net income of $948600. The company paid dividends of $493272 and has 100000 shares of stock outstanding. If the benchmark PE ratio is 26, what is the target stock price in one year?

Answers

Answer:

The target stock price in one year is $264.75

Explanation:

We first calculate the ROE as below

ROE= Earnings / Book value of Equity

ROE= $948,600 / $6,200,000

ROE= 0.153

The payout ratio is:

b=  Dividend / Net income

b = $493,272 / $948,600

b = 0.52

So the sustainable growth rate is:

g = ROE * (1-b)

g = 0.153 * (1-0.52)

g = 0.153 * 0.48

g = 0.07344

The earning in the first year are

EPS1 = $948,600 / 100,000  * (1 + 0.07344)

EPS1 = $9.486 * 1.07344

EPS1 = $10.1827

According to the benchmark PE ratio, the target stock price in one year is

Price = EPS1 * 26

Price = $10.1827 * 26

Price = $264.75

b. The arithmetic average annual return on large-company stocks in real terms can be expressed by;

Real Return = [(1 + Nominal rate) / (1 + Inflation rate)] - 1

= (( 1 + 12.1%) / ( 1 + 3.4%)) - 1

= (1.121/1.034) - 1

= 1.0841 - 1

= 8.41%

Answer: can protect United States jobs in the protected industry but will also lead to reductions in U.S. output and income

Explanation:

Imports are the goods that are purchased and brought from another country into one's home country. Restricting imports is a way by which the government helps to protect the industries at home.

It should also be noted that restricting imports will lead to reductions in the United States output and income as other people in other countries might stop purchasing ones products as well and this will affect the income of the United States.

Answer:

C.  can protect United States jobs in the protected industry but will also lead to reductions in U.S. output and income.

Explanation:

Import restriction is a measure taken by some countries that want trade protectionism. They do this to limit importation of goods and services from foreign countries. To achieve this they may impose tariffs, quotas, develop policies, or give subsidies to the local producers, all in a bid to limit importation. In the United States, while restricting imports can protect jobs in the protected industries, it would also result to trade wars with other nations.

This is a situation where other countries reciprocate the import restriction. This would eventually result in a reduced Gross domestic product for the country and limited choices for the consumers who will want to settle with cheaper goods. A case is the situation between Japan and the United States

The owner of a large machine shop has just finished its financial analysis from the prior fiscal year.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 3.5

Explanation:

Inventory turnover ratio is:

Cost of goods sold / Total or average inventory

Cost of goods sold is $322,000

Total Inventory in this question comprises work-in- process, finished goods and even raw materials.

So total inventory equals:

Production materials on hand $42,500 Work-in-process inventory $37,000

Finished goods on hand $12,500

Total inventory. $92,000

Therefore, inventory turnover ratio is

$322,000 / $92,000

= 3.5
