Diamond Machine Technology has invested $250,000 in developing a sharpener. Each sharpener costs $3 to make. In addition, fixed costs for the sharpener are $10,000. The company expects to sell 100,000 sharpeners this year to local supermarkets (you should assume this sales forecast is accurate). Diamond Machine's markup on sales is 30 percent, and it wants to earn a 20% ROI. Calculate both the markup price and the target-return price for the sharpener. How much profit can Diamond Machine earn this year if they sell at the markup price

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Diamond Machine Technology

a) Markup price = $4.03

b) Target return price = $3.60

Explanation:

Investment = $250,000

Cost of each sharpener = $3

Additional fixed costs = $10,000

Quantity of sharpeners to sell for the year= 100,000

Markup on sales = 30%

Return on Investment (ROI) = 20%

Markup price = (($3 * 100,000) + $10,000))* 1.3

= $403,000 /100,000 = $4.03

Return on Investment:

Profit for the year = 100,000($4.03 - $3) - $10,000 = $93,000

ROI = $93,000/$250,000 * 100 = 37.2%

Target revenue = (20% of $250,000) + $310,000 = $360,000

Target return price = $360,000/100,000 = $3.60

The Tierney Group has two divisions of equal size: an office furniture manufacturing division and a data processing division. Its CFO believes that stand-alone data processor companies typically have a WACC of 9%, while stand-alone furniture manufacturers typically have a 13% WACC. She also believes that the data processing and manufacturing divisions have the same risk as their typical peers. Consequently, she estimates that the composite, or corporate, WACC is 11%. A consultant has suggested using a 9% hurdle rate for the data processing division and a 13% hurdle rate for the manufacturing division. However, the CFO disagrees, and she has assigned an 11% WACC to all projects in both divisions. Which of the following statements is CORRECT?
A. The decision not to adjust for risk means, in effect, that it is favoring the data processing division. Therefore, that division is likely to become a larger part of the consolidated company over time.
B. The decision not to adjust for risk means that the company will accept too many projects in the manufacturing division and too few in the data processing division. This will lead to a reduction in the firm's intrinsic value over time.
C. The decision not to risk-adjust means that the company will accept too many projects in the data processing business and too few projects in the manufacturing business. This will lead to a reduction in its intrinsic value over time.
D. The decision not to risk-adjust means that the company will accept too many projects in the manufacturing business and too few projects in the data processing business. This may affect the firm's capital structure but it will not affect its intrinsic value.
E. While the decision to use just one WACC will result in its accepting more projects in the manufacturing division and fewer projects in its data processing division than if it followed the consultant's recommendation, this should not affect the firm's intrinsic value.

Answers

Answer:

The Correct statement is option B. The decision of the company not to adjust for risk means that the company will have to accept too many projects in the office furniture manufacturing division and too few in the data processing division.

Explanation:

Based on the information given the decision of the company not to adjust to the risks will lead to the firm accepting project that are too many in the office furniture Manufacturing Divsion while that of data processing Division will accept too few project, which means that the firm will be at risk in a situation where they want to raise the cost of capital reason been that the company cash flow will be Discounted by the investor at a rate that is high which will inturn Lead to the company value to decline.

Therefore The Correct statement is option B.

Answers

Answer:

Vandezande Inc.

The payback period of this investment is closest to:___________

d) 2.7 years

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Incremental Net Operating Incomes   Net Cash  Flows  Incremental cash

Year 1              $79, 000                           $154, 000      

Year 2            $ 85,000                             $164,000             $318,000

Year 3               96,000                            $175, 000               493,000

Year 4              59,000                              $161,000               654,000

Year 5           $101,000                              $163,000               817,000

Total            $420,000                              $817,000

Payback period = Cash outflow/ (Total cash inflows/5)

= $438,000/($817,000/5)

= $438,000/$163,400

= 2.68

= 2.7 years

b) Payback period is the time an investment takes to recover its initial cost, at which the break-even point is reached.  Shorter payback period increases the attractiveness and desirability of an investment.  Another method to calculate the payback period is the subtraction method.  This involves subtracting the cash inflows from the cash outflow until the cash outflow becomes zero.

According to the Taylor rule, if inflation is 9% and the GDP gap is 4%, what is the recommendation for the federal funds rate target?

Answers

Answer: 16.5%

Explanation:

The Taylor Rule suggests that the Federal reserve should raise the fed funds rate if inflation rates are above the targeted rates and/ or if GDP is growing at a higher rate than it potentially should.

The rate is calculated as;

Federal funds rate target = (1.5 * Inflation rate) + (0.5 * GDP gap) + 1

= (1.5 * 9%) + (0.5 * 4%) + 1%

= 13.5% + 2% + 1

= 16.5%

On June 1, 2021, Emmet Property Management entered into a 2-year contract to oversee leasing and maintenance for an apartment building. The contract starts on July 1, 2021. Under the terms of the contract, Emmet will be paid a fixed fee of $54,000 per year and will receive an additional 10% of the fixed fee at the end of each year provided that building occupancy exceeds 80%. Emmet estimates a 20% chance it will exceed the occupancy threshold, and concludes the revenue recognition over time is appropriate for this contract. Assume Emmet estimates variable consideration as the most likely amount. How much revenue should Emmet recognize on this contract in 2021? Multiple Choice $27,540 $54,000 $30,750 $27,000

Answers

Answer:

$27,540

Explanation:

Expected amount = Possible amount into probability

Expected amount = ($54,000*80%) + ($54,000+10%)*20%

Expected amount = $43,200 + ($54,000+$5,400)*20%

Expected amount = $43,200 + $59,400*20%

Expected amount = $43,200 + $11,880

Expected amount = $55,080

Revenue to be recognized on this contract in 2021 = $55,080 * 6/12 = $27,540.

d)The change in job posting from one year ago
e) survey of individuals reporting wheater they have job or active looked for work in the last 4 week

Answers

Answer:

e) survey of individuals reporting whether they have job or active looked for work in the last 4 week

Explanation:

The unemployment rate (U-3) reports on the number of jobless people that are actively seeking employment. The bureau of labor statistics considers individuals who have sought employment in the past four weeks. The bureau defines an unemployed person as one that is jobless but has actively sought work in the last four weeks.

This unemployment rate (U3) is the most reported and followed. The report is released monthly. The U3 unemployment rate is criticized for not being inclusive of all jobless people. For instance, it does not include discouraged job seekers or those not looking for work due to other factors such as caring for the sick and elderly at home.

Accounts Receivable: $24,000Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts: $1,000During the year there were $450,000 of credit sales, $460,000 of collections from credit customers, and $3,700 of write-offs of delinquent accounts. At the end of the year, the company adjusted for bad debts expense using the percent-of-sales method, and applied a rate, based on past history, of 1.2%. At the end of the year, what was the balance in the Accounts receivable

Answers

Answer: $10,300

Explanation:

The following can be deduced from the question:

Opening balance of the account receivable = $24,000

Accounts receivable after the credit sales would be calculated as:

= $24,000 + $450,000

= $474,000

We then calculate the accounts receivable after the collection of credit which will be:

= $474,000 - $460,000

= $14,000

Therefore, the the balance in the accounts receivable would be:

=$14,000 - $3,700

= $10,300

You purchased eight TJH call option contracts with a strike price of $37.50 when the option quote was $.55. The option expires today when the value of TJH stock is $37.10. Ignoring trading costs and taxes, what is your total profit on your investment

Answers

Answer:

-$4.40

Explanation:

Buyer of Call payoff = Max(S-K,0)

Buyer of Call payoff = Max(37.1-37.5,0)

Buyer of Call payoff = $0

Buyer of Call profit = Call payoff-premium

Buyer of Call profit = 0 - 0.55

Buyer of Call profit = -$0.55

So, for 8 options, Loss = 8*-$0.55 = -$4.40

So therefore, the total profit/loss on eight call option is -$4.40

Azim Services, a nongovernmental not-for-profit organization, received dues of $100 from its members. Azim provided its members with a newsletter that had a $25 value. All other services were valued at $10 per member. What is the amount of contribution made to Azim by each member?

Answers

Answer:

Each member of Azim Services pays $ 135 per month in contributions.

Explanation:

While Azim Services charges its members a fee of $ 100, in addition to delivering a newsletter that has a value of $ 25 and providing other services for the sum of $ 10, to determine the amount of money that each member contributes to Azim Services it is necessary to make the following calculation:

100 + 25 + 10 = X

125 + 10 = X

135 = X

Thus, each member of Azim Services pays $ 135 per month in contributions.

The following information for Cooper Enterprises is given below:December 31, 2018Assets and obligations Plan assets (at fair value) $600,000Accumulated benefit obligation 1,110,000Projected benefit obligation 1,200,000Other Items Pension asset / liability, January 1, 2018 30,000Contributions 360,000Accumulated other comprehensive loss 503,700There were no actuarial gains or losses at January 1, 2018. The average remaining service life of employees is 10 years. What is the amount that Cooper Enterprises should report as its pension liability on its balance sheet as of December 31, 2018?a. $600,000b. $90,000c. $1,110,000d. $1,200,000

Answers

Answer:

a. $600,000

Explanation:

The computation of the amount reported as a pension liability on the balance sheet is as follows:

= Projected benefit obligation - plant asset at fair value

= $1,200,000 - $600,000

= $600,000

Hence, the amount reported as a pension liability on the balance sheet is $600,000

Therefore the correct option is a.

Coronado Inc. has $520,640 to invest. The company is trying to decide between two alternative uses of the funds. One alternative provides $69,086 at the end of each year for 12 years, and the other is to receive a single lump-sum payment of $1,633,990 at the end of the 12 years. Which alternative should Coronado select

Answers

Answer:

None of the alternative should be selected by Coronado Inc.

Explanation:

This can be determined by comparing the net present value of the 2 alternative.

The fisrt thing to do is to calculate the simple interest to be used as follows:

Simple rate of return = Annual return / Investment cost = $69,086 / $520,640 = 0.1327, or 13.27%

Step 1: Calculation of the net present value of alternative that provides $69,086 at the end of each year for 12 years

We have to first calculate the present value using the formula for calculating the present of an ordinary annuity as follows:

PV$69,086 = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)

Where;

PV$69,086 = Present value of the annual cash flow of $69,086 = ?

P = Annual cash inflow = $69,086

r = Simple rate of return = 0.1327, or 13.27%

n = Number of years = 12

Substitute the values into equation (1) to have:

PV$69,086 = $69,086 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.1327))^12) / 0.1327) = $403,899.27

The net present value can now be calculated as follows:

NPV$69,086 = PV$69,086 - Investment cost ............... (2)

Where;

NPV$69,086 = Net present value of alternative that provides $69,086 at the end of each year for 12 years = ?

PV$69,086 = Present value of the annual cash flow of $69,086 = $440,303.13

Substitute the values into equation (2) to have:

NPV$69,086 = $ 403,899.27 - $520,640

NPV$69,086 = -116,740.73

Step 2: Calculation of the net present value of alternative that  pays a single lump-sum payment of $1,633,990 at the end of the 12 years

We have to first calculate the present value using the present value formula as follows:

PV$1,633,990 = $1,633,990 / (1 + r)^n ............. (3)

Where;

PV$1,633,990 = present value of $1,633,990 = ?

r = Simple rate of return = 0.1327, or 13.27%

n = Number of years = 12

Substitute the values into equation (3) to have:

PV$1,633,990 = $1,633,990 / (1 + 0.1327)^12 = $366,328.40

The net present value can now be calculated as follows:

NPV$1,633,990 = PV$1,633,990 - Investment cost ............... (4)

Where;

NPV$1,633,990 = net present value of alternative that  pays a single lump-sum payment of $1,633,990 at the end of the 12 years = ?

Substitute the values into equation (4) to have:

NPV$1,633,990 = PV$1,633,990 - Investment cost = $366,328.40 - $520,640 = -$154,311.60

Conclusion

Since the NPVs of the two alternative are negative, none of the alternative should be selected by Coronado Inc.
