An increase in which of the following will increase the return on equity, all else constant I. Total asset turnover. II. Net income. III. Total assets. IV. Debt-equity ratio. I only. I, II, and III only. I and II only. I, II, and IV only. I, II, III, and IV.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

I and II only.

Explanation:

Return on equity (ROE) is an example of a profitability ratio.

Profitability ratios measures the ability of a company to earn profits from its assets.

ROE = Net income / Average total equity

If ROE increases, it means that net income increases more than average total equity

Total asset turnover = Revenue / average total assets

(Net Income/ Net profit margin) / Total Assets

All else remaining constant, if ROE increases, it means that revenue also increases more than average total asset

Since Net income is the numerator in ROE, it means it would also increase

Total asset and debt equity ratio is not a component of ROE, so the effect of ROE on them can't be determined

Answers

Answer:

$41,354.98

Explanation:

Required future worth = Annual savings x FVIFA(r%, N) x (1 + r)

Required annual savings ($) = [Required future worth / FVIFA(r%, N)] / (1 + r)

= 725,000 / [FVIFA(10%, 10) * 1.1]

= 725,000 / (15.9374 * 1.1)

= 725,000 / 17.53114

= 41354.98318991235

= $41,354.98

Note: Since this is annuity due (deposit made at beginning of year), FV is divided by (1+r).

Globe Services plans on closing its doors after one more year. During its last year in business, the firm expects to generate a cash flow of $67,000 if the economy booms and $44,000 if it does not. The probability of a boom is 30 percent. The firm has debt of $53,400 that is due in one year. That debt has a market value of $45,800 today. Ignore taxes. The current promised return on debt is __________ percent, and the expected return on debt is __________ percent.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Current promised return on debt is

= $53,400 ÷ $45,800 - 1

= 16.60%

And, the expected return on debt is

The expected amount would be

= $53,400 × 30% + $44,000 × 70%

= $16,020 + $30,800

= $46,820

 Now the expected return on debt is

= $46,820 ÷ $45,800 - 1

= 2.23%

Tam Worldly's weekly gross earnings for the present week were $2,000. Worldly has two exemptions. Using the wage bracket withholding table in Exhibit 2
with a $75 standard withholding allowance for each exemption, what is Worldly's federal income tax withholding? If required, round your answer to two
decimal places.

Answers

Answer: $‭391.71‬

Explanation:

Tam earned $2,000 for the week.

There are two exemptions with each of them valued at a $75 allowance.

Net earnings = 2,000 - (75 * 2)

= $1,850

Based on the table, this falls under the $1,533 to $3,202 bracket.

Federal income tax withholding is:

= 302.95 + 28% * (1,850 - 1,533)

= 302.95 + ‭88.76‬

= $‭391.71‬

Patterson Corporation expects to incur $70,000 of factory overhead and $60,000 of general and administrative costs next year. Direct labor costs at $5 per hour are expected to total $50,000. If factory overhead is to be applied per direct labor hour, how much overhead will be applied to a job incurring 20 hours of direct labor

Answers

Answer:

$140

Explanation:

With regards to the above, since the factory overhead is to be applied per direct labor hour

= [$70,000 ÷ ($50,000 ÷ $5) 20 hours]

= $70,000 ÷ 10,000 × 20 hours

= $7 × 20 hours

= $140

Therefore, $120 will be applied to job incurring 20 hours of direct labor

A company can purchase component Hfrom 3 potential suppliers. Supplier A charges a fee of $5.50 per component. Supplier B charges $1500 per order plus $2.00 per component ordered. Supplier C charges $4.00 per component,andrequires the buyer to pay for at least 280components (even if the order size is less than 280).

Required:
a. What is the full range of order sizes where each supplier is optimal?
b. The company decided to buy 300 units of component H from supplier A. How much money could the company have saved if it purchased the 300 units from supplier C instead of supplier A?
c. Next week supplier B will be running a 10% off special. If the company needs to purchase 600 units of component H during the special, which supplier should be chosen?

Answers

Answer:

a. The full range of the order sizes where each supplier is optimal is:

Supplier A, from 1 to 280 units

Supplier B, from 1,000 units upwards

Supplier C, from 280 to 1,000

b. The company decided to buy 300 units of component H from supplier A. How much money could the company have saved if it purchased the 300 units from supplier C instead of supplier A?

Savings from purchasing from C instead of from A = $450

c. To purchase 600 units during B's 10% off special:

Supplier C should be chosen.  It enjoys the minimal cost-advantage.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

b) Cost of purchasing 300 units from A = $1,650 ($5.50 * 300)

Cost of purchasing 300 units from C = $1,200 ($4.00 * 300)

Savings from purchasing from C = $450 ($1,650 - $1,200)

c) 10% off special by B.  This reduces its price from $2 to $1.80 plus the $1,500 per order

Cost of purchasing 600 units from B during the special discount offer =

$1,500 + ($1.80 * 600) = $2,580

Cost of purchasing 600 units from A during B's special discount offer =

$5.50 * 600  = $3,300

Cost of purchasing 600 units from C during B's special discount offer =

$4 * 600 = $2,400

Range of order sizes:

Supplier A, from 1 to 280 units: Above 280 units, Supplier C will be preferred in terms of total cost.

Supplier B, from 1,000 units upwards: This will reduce the unit cost to $3.50 or below.

Supplier C, from 280 to 1,000: Below 280 units, Supplier A performs better than C.

Suppose you win a small lottery and have the choice of two ways to be paid: You can accept the money in a lump sum or in a series of payments over time. If you pick the lump sum, you get $2,800 today. If you pick payments over time, you get three payments: $1,000 today, $1,000 1 year from today, and $1,000 2 years from today.
1) At an interest rate of 6% per year, the winner would be better off accepting the (LUMP SUM or PAYMENTS OVER TIME?), since it has the greater present value.
2) At an interest rate of 9% per year, the winner would be better off accepting the (LUMP SUM or PAYMENTS OVER TIME?), since it has the greater present value.
3) Years after you win the lottery, a friend in another country calls to ask your advice. By wild coincidence, she has just won another lottery with the same payout schemes. She must make a quick decision about whether to collect her money under the lump sum or the payments over time. What is the best advice to give your friend?
A) The lump sum is always better.
B) The payments over time are always better.
C) It will depend on the interest rate; advise her to get a calculator.
D) None of these answers is good

Answers

Answer:

PAYMENTS OVER TIME

lump sum

c

Explanation:

To know the better option, we have to calculate the present value of the series of cash flows

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 0 = $1000

Cash flow in year 1 = $1000

Cash flow in year 2 = $1000

PV when interest rate is 6 = 2833.93

PV when interest rate is 8 = 2783.26

When PV when interest rate is 6 , choose payment over time because it is higher

PV when interest rate is 8 , choose lump sum because it is higher

To find the PV using a financial calculator:

Which would an economist say best describes a "trust"?
a. a federal order
b. a public good
c. an illegal combination
d. a feeling in a market

Answers

The answer would be B

An economist would say that "an illegal combination" best describes a "trust." In economics, a trust refers to an illegal combination or arrangement where multiple companies or entities collude to control and monopolize a particular market or industry, limiting competition and manipulating prices to their advantage. Thus, option c is correct.

In the context of trusts, an illegal combination refers to the collusion or agreement among multiple companies or entities to control and manipulate a market in an anti-competitive manner. It involves practices such as price-fixing, market allocation, and monopolistic behavior that are prohibited by antitrust laws.

The term highlights the unlawfulness and negative implications of such arrangements, as they distort market forces, hinder fair competition, and potentially harm consumers by limiting choices, driving up prices, and suppressing innovation.

Legal measures are in place to prevent and address these illegal combinations to safeguard market integrity and promote fair and open competition.

When preparing the financial statements for the month ended January 31, accrued salaries owed to employees for January 30 and 31 were overlooked. The accrued salaries were included in the first salary payment in February. Indicate which items will be erroneously stated, because of failure to correct the initial error, on (A) the income statement for the month of February and (B) the balance sheet as of February 28.a. Income Statement

Answers

Answer:

A. Income Statement

Salaries Expense - OVERSTATED

Salaries will be overstated because they would be increased by salaries from January when they should not be as only expenses in February should be apportioned to February.

Net Income - UNDERSTATED

With salaries being higher than they should be, they will reduce the Net income more than they should which will lead to the net income being understated.

B. Balance Sheet

Salaries Payable - No effect

Stockholder's Equity - UNDERSTATED

Net income goes to Equity in the form of Retained earnings. If Net income is understated therefore, so also will Net Income be.

Deborah would like to invest a certain amount of money for two years and considers investing in a one-year bond that pays 4% and a two-year bond that pays 7%. Deborah is considering the following investment strategies:

Strategy A: Buy a one-year bond that pays 4% and in one year buy another one-year bond.
Strategy B: Buy a two-year bond that pays 7% this year and 7% next year.

If the one-year bond that Dina can purchase in one year pays 9%, Deborah will choose:_______

Answers

Answer:

If the one-year bond that Dina/Deborah can purchase in one year pays 9%, Deborah will choose:_______

Strategy B.

Explanation:

a) Data:

Interest on one-year bond = 4%

Interest on a two-year bond = 7%

Investment strategies:

Strategy A: Buy a one-year bond that pays 4% and in one year buy another one-year bond.

Strategy B: Buy a two-year bond that pays 7% this year and 7% next year.

b) Although choosing a fixed income investment is a conservative strategy because returns are generated from low-risk securities that pay predictable interest, this strategy may be preferred by Deborah instead of another that pays at variable interest rates.  The variable-interest bond will need to pay higher varying interest rates to be attractive to Deborah.  Paying 4% in year one and another 9% in year two will not make the bond investment more attractive than a straight two-year bond that pays at 7% per year.

Assume you borrow $10,000 today and promise to repay the loan in two payments, one in year 2 and the other in year 4, with the one in year 4 being only half as large as the one in year 2. At an interest rate of 10% per year, the size of the payment in year 4 will be closest to:

Answers

Answer:

$4,281.19

Explanation:

The standard notation equation is P = F(P/F, i, n) where the value of the factor is seen in the compound interest factor table.

Let the amount deposited in year 4 be A, we calculate the value of A as follows

10,000 = 2A(P/F, 10%, 2) + A(P/F, 10%, 4)

10,000 = 2A(0.8263) + A(0.683)

2.3358A = 10,000

A = 10,000 / 2.3358

A = 4281.188457915917

A = $4,281.19.

M I N I C A S E
Your employer, a mid-sized human resources management company, is considering expansion into related fields, including the acquisition of Temp Force Company, an employment agency that supplies word processor operators and computer programmers to businesses with temporary heavy workloads. Your employer is also considering the purchase of a Biggerstaff & Biggerstaff (B&B), a privately held company owned by two brothers, each with 5 million shares of stock. B&B currently has free cash flow of $24 million, which is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5%. B&B’s financial statements report marketable securities of $100 million, debt of $200 million, and preferred stock of $50 million.

Answers

Answer:

Temp Force required rate of return is 13%

The shareholders of B&B will have rights of dividend in the company's profit.

Explanation:

Temp Force company will require a rate of return based on the risk of the company. The beta factor determines the business risk of the company. For the Temp Force the beta factor is 1.2

Required rate of return of temp Force;

r = Rf + (Rm - Rf) * beta

r = 7% + (12% -7%) * 1.2

r = 13%

B&B shareholders will have voting rights in the company and they are eligible for any dividends declared by the company. They will have rights to elect the director and attend the AGM and EOGM. These rights are given to shareholders to maintain good corporate governance in the company.
