If the price level increases by 0.2 percent for every $100 billion increase in the money supply, by how much might prices rise if the Fed increases total reserves by $150 billion and the reserve requirement is 0.1?
Answer:
3%
Explanation:
Increase in money supply ($ billion) = Increase in reserves / Reserve ratio
Increase in money supply ($ billion) = 150 / 0.1
Increase in money supply ($ billion) = 1,500
Increase in price level = (Increase in money supply / 100) * 0.2
Increase in price level = (1,500/100) * 0.2
Increase in price level = 3%
The Up and Coming Corporation's common stock has a beta of 0.9. If the risk-free rate is 4 percent and the expected return on the market is 15 percent, what is the company's cost of equity capital? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
a) 13.2%
b) 14.46%
c) 17.5%
d) 14.59%
e) 13.9%
Answer:
r = 0.139 or 13.9%
Option e is the correct answer
Explanation:
Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.
The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,
r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)
Where,
rRF is the risk free rate rM is the market return
r = 0.04 + 0.9 * (0.15 - 0.04)
r = 0.139 or 13.9%

How much should you pay for a $1,000 bond with 10% coupon, annual payments, and 5 years to maturity if the interest rate is 12%?
Answer:
Bond Price = $927.904476 rounded off to $927.90
Explanation:
To calculate the price of the bond today, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. As the bond is an annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and annual YTM will be,
Coupon Payment (C) = 1000 * 0.1 = 100
Total periods (n) = 5
r or YTM = 0.12 or 12%
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
Bond Price = 100 * [( 1 - (1+0.12)^-5) / 0.12] + 1000 / (1+0.12)^5
Bond Price = $927.904476 rounded off to $927.90

A market that has a single supplier of a product with no close substitutes and barriers to entry is:________
a. an oligopoly.
b. monopolistically competitive.
c. a pure monopoly.
Answer:
c. a pure monopoly.
Explanation:
A monopoly is a market structure which is typically characterized by a single-seller who sells a unique product in the market by dominance. This ultimately implies that, it is a market structure wherein the seller has no competitor because he is solely responsible for the sale of unique products without close substitutes. Any individual that deals with the sales of unique products in a monopolistic market is generally referred to as a monopolist.
For example, a public power company is an example of a monopoly because they serve as the only source of power utility provider to the general public in a society.
Additionally, a public power company refers to a company that provides power (electricity) utility to the general public of a society.
Hence, a market that has a single supplier of a product with no close substitutes and barriers to entry is a pure monopoly.

Don takes out a personal loan for $12000 to fund his wedding. He will repay it over 5 years at 6% p.a. Calculate the:
Answer:
(a)Total repayment = $16,185.95
(b) Monthly repayment = $231.99.
(c) Interest charged = $4,185.95
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
Don takes out a personal loan for $12000 to fund his wedding. He will repay it over 5 years at 6% p.a. Calculate the:
(a) Monthly repayment
(b) Total repayment
(c) Interest charged.
The explanation to the answers is now provided as follows:
(a) Monthly repayment
This can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:
PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)
Where;
PV = Present value of the of the loan or the loan amount = $12,000
P = Monthly repayment = ?
r = Monthly interest rate = 6% / 12 = 0.06 / 12 = 0.005
n = number months = 5 years * 12 months = 60
Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve for P, we have:
$12,000 = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.005))^60) / 0.005)
$12,000 = P * 51.7255607511308
P = $12,000 / 51.7255607511308
P = $231.99
Therefore, monthly repayment is $231.99.
(b) Total repayment
This can be calculated using the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity is used as follows:
FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ........................................ (2)
Where;
FV = Future value of the loan or total repayment = ?
M = Monthly repayment = $231.99
r = Monthly interest rate = 6% / 12 = 0.06 / 12 = 0.005
n = number months = 5 years * 12 months = 60
Substitute the values into equation (2), we have:
FV = $231.99 * (((1 + 0.005)^60 - 1) / 0.005)
FV = $231.99 * 69.7700305098607
FV = $16,185.95
Therefore, total repayment is $16,185.95.
(c) Interest charged
This can be calculated as follows:
Interest charged = Total repayment - Loan amount = $16,185.95 - $12,000 = $4,185.95.
Therefore, interest charged is $4,185.95.
Suppose a local hardware store turns over its inventory of power pools 6.0 times per year If the hardware store has an average inventory of 120 power tools, what is its average daily sales rate for power tools?
Answer: 2 power tools
Explanation:
Given the variables, Little's formula can be used to solve this.
Inventory turnover = Annual Sales / Average inventory
First find annual sales;
6 = Annual sales / 120
Annual sales = 6 * 120
Annual sales = 720 power tools.
Average daily sales assuming 360 days;
= 720/360
= 2 power tools

Suppose you have $850 and plan to purchase a 5-year certificate of deposit (CD) that pays 3.5% interest, compounded annually. How much will you have when the CD matures?
Answer:
FV= $772
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Initial investment (PV)= $850
Interest rate (i)= 3.5% = 0.035
Number of periods (n)= 5 years
To calculate the future value (FV), we need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 650*(1.035^5)
FV= $772
Assuming the market interest rate is 10% per annum, how much would Coronado Industries record as a note payable if the terms of the loan with a bank are that it would have to make one $128000 payment in two years
Answer: $105,785
Explanation:
Coronado would need to record the note at the present value of $128,000 given a rate of 10% and a 2 year maturity.
= 128,000 / ( 1 + 10%)²
= 128,000/ 1.21
= 105,785.12
= $105,785
The interest accrued on $7,500 at 6% for 90 days is: (Use 360 days a year.)
a. $11.25.
b. $450.00.
c. $37.50.
d. $112.50.
e. $1,800.00.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Initial investment (PV)= $7,500
Interest rate= 0.06/360= 0.00017 daily
Number of periods= 90 days
To calculate the interest earned, we need to use the following formula:
I= [PV*(1+i)^n] - PV
I= [7,500*(1.00017^90)] - 7,500
I= $115.62
Answer:
$112.50
Explanation:
Amount X Rate X Time =
(Principal of the note x Annual Interest Rate x Time expressed in fraction of year (360 days using the "banker's rule") = Interest)
$7,500 x 0.06 = 450
450 x 90 / 360 = $112.50
Swifty Corporation sells one product and uses a perpetual inventory system. The beginning inventory consisted of 79 units that cost $19 per unit. During the current month, the company purchased 477 units at $19 each. Sales during the month totaled 355 units for $42 each. What is the cost of goods sold using the LIFO method
Answer:
COGS= $6,745
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beginning inventory= 79 units at $19
Purchase= 477 units at $19
Sales= 355 units
The units cost the same. In this case, it doesn't matter which method you use, the ending value will be the same.
COGS= 355*19= $6,745
You are the CFO of Rock Inc, a young start-up. The company has not generated positive cash flows for the past three years and you estimate that it will take at least another 2 years for the company to become cash flow positive. To fund the next phase of growth, what should be a better source of capital, debt or equity? Why?
Answer:
Equity
Explanation:
The choice should be very straight forward, the company doesn't generate enough cash, and if it takes debt, it will not be able to pay it back. The only choice for raising capital is through issuing equity.
This is something normal for many startups, e.g. FB, Amazon, Google, etc., all got financed through equity for several years before being able to issue debt. Of course debt is cheaper than equity, but it also poses a risk for the company.
The financial statements of Georgi Manufacturing Company report net sales of $595,000and accounts receivable of $80,000 and $60,000 at the beginning and end of the year,respectively. What is the average collection period for accounts receivable in days?
Answer:
43 days
Explanation:
The first step is to calculate the account receivable turnover
= $595,000/($80,000+$60,000)/2
= 595,000/140,000/2
= 595,000/70,000
= 8.5
Therefore the average collection period can be calculated as follows
= 365 /8.5
= 42.9
= 43 days
Kenny Electric Company's noncallable bonds were issued several years ago and now have 20 years to maturity. These bonds have a 9.25% annual coupon, paid semiannually, sells at a price of $1,075, and has a par value of $1,000. If the firm's tax rate is 25%, what is the component cost of debt for use in the WACC calculation
Answer:
6.35%
Explanation:
Let us as a matter of preference determine the pretax cost of debt using the financial calculator approach as set out below:
N=40 (number of semiannual coupons in 20 years=20*2)
PMT=46.25 (semiannual coupon=face value*coupon rate*6/12=$1000*9.25%*6/12=$46.25 )
PV=-1075( current market price)
FV=1000( face value)
Lastly, enter CPT I/Y=4.23% (semiannual yield)
annual yield=pretax cost of debt=4.23% *2=8.46%
The after-tax cost of debt=8.46% *(1-25%)=6.35%
The after-tax cost of debt for use in WACC calculation=6.35%
