Crane Company

Journal entry to record the sale of the bonds on June 1, 2022:

Debit Cash Account $375,950

Credit Bonds Payable $365,000

Credit Bonds Premium $10,950

To record the sale of 8% bonds at 103.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Face value of bonds = $365,000

Bonds maturity period = 20 years

Bonds issued at a premium of 103

Bonds rate of interest = 8% per annum

Number of bonds issued = $365,000/$100 = 3,650

Premium on bonds = 3,650 * $3 ($103 - $100) = $10,950

Answer:

0.0919411

4.87%

Explanation:

Given that:

AMAZON :

Investment = $2000

Expected return = 8.2%

Standard deviation = 5.07%

APPLE :

Investment = $6500

Expected return = 9.5%

Standard deviation = 6.84%

Total investment = $(2000 + 6500) = $8500

Amazon investment weight :

2000 / 8500 = 0.2353

Apple investment weight :

6500 / 8500 = 0.7647

Expected return on portfolio:

(Amazon weight * Amazon expected return) + (apple weight * apple expected return)

= (0.2353 * 0.082) + (0.7647 * 0.095)

= 0.0919411

= 0.0919411 * 100%

= 9.19411 = 9.19%

Portfolio risk :

Sqrt[(Amazon weight ² * amazon standard deviation²) + (apple weight ² * apple standard deviation ²) + 2 (weight of Amazon * weight of apple * covariance)]

Sqrt[(0.2353^2 * 0.0507^2) + (0.7647^2 * 0.0684^2) + 2(0.2353 * 0.7647 * - 0.0014)

Sqrt(0.0023743662707145)

= 0.0487274

= 0.0487274 * 100%

= 4.87%

Answer:

$862.92

Explanation:

We use this formula in other to solve this problem

price at issue = Fv / (1+r)n

Price at issue = $691.72

Future value fv = 1000

When we substitute into the formula

$691.72 = $1,000/(1+i)⁵

(1+i)⁵ =$1,000/$691.72

(1+i)⁵ = 1.445672

1 + i = (1.445672)1/5

1+i = 1.445672^0.2

1 + i= 1.0765

So that

I = 1.0765 -1

= 0.0765 also 7.65 %

We have after 3 years,

Price = Future Value/ (1+i)²

= $1,000/ 1.0765)²

= $1,000 / 1.158852

This gives us the value of

$ 862.9232

Therefore option d is the correct answer to the question

Answer:

A .Unlevered cost of equity = 9.6

b-1 Levered cost of equity = 28.69

b-2 Levered cost of equity = 14.37

b-3 Levered cost of equity = 9.6

Explanation:

A. First step is to calculate the E/A

D/A = D/(E+D)

D/A = 1.5/(1+1.5)

D/A=0.6

E/A = 1-D/A

E/A=1-0.6

E/A=0.4

Second Step is to calculate WACC using this formula

WACC = Levered cost of equity*E/A+Cost of debt*(1-tax rate)*D/A

Let plug in the formula

0.096= Levered cost of equity*=0.4+0.057*(1-0)*=0.6

Levered cost of equity =15.45%

Third step is to calculate UnLevered cost of equity using this formula

Levered cost of equity = Unlevered cost of equity+D/E*( Unlevered cost of equity-cost of debt)*(1-tax rate)

Let plug in the formula

0.1545 = Unlevered cost of equity+1.5*(Unlevered cost of equity-0.057)*(1-0)

Unlevered cost of equity = 9.6

b-1. Calculation for What would the cost of equity be if the debt-equity ratio were 2.0

Using this formula

Levered cost of equity = Unlevered cost of equity+D/E*( Unlevered cost of equity-cost of debt)*(1-tax rate)

Let plug in the formula

Levered cost of equity = 9.6+2*(9.6-0.057)*(1-0)

Levered cost of equity = 28.69

b-2. Calculation for What would the cost of equity be if the debt-equity ratio were 0.5

Using this formula

Levered cost of equity = Unlevered cost of equity+D/E*( Unlevered cost of equity-cost of debt)*(1-tax rate)

Let plug in the formula

Levered cost of equity = 9.6+0.5*(9.6-0.057)*(1-0)

Levered cost of equity = 14.37

b-3. Calculation for What would the cost of equity be if the debt-equity ratio were zero

Using this formula

Levered cost of equity = Unlevered cost of equity+D/E*( Unlevered cost of equity-cost of debt)*(1-tax rate)

Let plug in the formula

Levered cost of equity = 9.6+0*(9.6-0.057)*(1-0)

Levered cost of equity = 9.6

Answer:

the current income tax expense or benefit is $103,583

Explanation:

The computation of the current income tax expense or benefit is shown below:

Current income tax expense is

= (pre - tax book income - favourable temporary difference + unfavorable temporary difference + unfavourable permanent difference) × tax rate

= ($365,000 - $13,750 + $97,000 + $45,000) × 21%

= $493,250 × 21%

= $103,583

We assumed the tax rate be 21%

hence, the  current income tax expense or benefit is $103,583

Answer:

Challenges

Explanation:

Answer:

the formula used to calculate the cost of equity (required rate of return) based on the bond yield plus risk premium is fairly simple:

cost of equity (Re) = yield of debt (bonds) + firm's risk premium = 11.52% + 3.55% = 15.07%

I'm not sure if the question was copied correctly or not, so I looked for similar questions and it included different numbers.

The Harrison Company is closely held and, therefore, cannot generate reliable inputs with which to use the CAPM method for estimating a company's cost of internal equity. Harrison's bonds yield 10.28%, and the firm's analysts estimate that the firm's risk premium on its stock over its bonds is 4.95%. Based on the bond-yield-plus-risk-premium approach, Harrison's cost of Internal equity is: = 10.28% + 4.95% = 15.23%

Another question:

The Kennedy Company is closely held and, therefore, cannot generate reliable inputs with which to use the CAPM method for estimating a company's cost of internal equity. Kennedy's bonds yield 11.52%, and the firm's analysts estimate that the firm's risk premium on its stock over its bonds is 4.95%. Based on the bond-yield-plus-risk-premium approach, Kennedy's cost of internal equity is: = 11.52% + 4.95% = 16.47%

Cost of Failure

Explanation:

A manufacturer incurs failure cost when they produce defective goods. The can be both internal and external cost.

Internal cost are those that incur before the product is sold/shipped to the ultimate buyer such as waste, re-work and/or reduction in sales price for re-worked goods. External cost on the other hand are those that occur following the shipment of goods such as warranty claims, cost of any legal action taken by customer, orders cancelled and/or lost of customer goodwill.

In most cases the external cost is higher than the cost incurred on the internal failure of the goods. So most often the manufacturers are more focused on ensuring that the quality standards are achieved.

I'm think It's D. All of the above are true

Answer:

9.84%

Explanation:

The bond's yield to maturity( pre-tax cost of debt) can be determined using the financial calculator approach as below:

N=50 (number of semiannual coupons in 25 years i.e 25*2)

PMT=55 (semiannual coupon=face value*coupon rate*6/12=$1000*11%*6/12=$55)

PV=-844.87 (current market price)

FV=1000 (face value)

CPT I/Y=6.56% (semiannual yield)

annual yield=6.56% *2=13.12%

after tax cost of debt=pretax cost of debt*(1-tax rate)

after tax cost of debt=13.12% *(1-25%)=9.84%

Answer:

$68,800

Explanation:

Generally, under the General Depreciation System (GDS) MACRS we use the half-year convention and the depreciation rates are:

year       depreciation %

1                   20%

2                  32%

3                  19.20%

4                  11.52%

5                  11.52%

6                  5.76%

When using MACRS, you do not consider any salvage value.

Depreciation expense 2020 = $344,000 x 20% = $68,800

The mid-quarter convention can be used only if 40% of total depreciable assets were purchased during the last 3 months of the year, but not when you purchase them during the first months.

Answer:

First Carla Vista must record unrealized holding loss due to the purchase commitment:

Dr Unrealized holding gain/loss 470,000

    Cr Estimated liability on purchase commitment 470,000

When the purchase is actually carried out, the journal entry should be:

Dr Raw materials inventory 1,670,000

Dr Estimated liability on purchase commitment 470,000

    Cr Accounts payable (or cash) 2,140,000

Explanation:

If a company enters a noncancelable purchase commitment, if the market price of the goods is lower than the contract price, the company must record a loss. On the other hand, if the market price is above the contract price, it results in a contingency gain until the gain is recognized when the purchase is actually done.

Answer:

The equivalent units of production 3,320 units

Explanation:

Equivalent units is the amount of work done in the manufacturing process at the end of the period. It includes fully completed units and partially completed units.

Equivalent units of production = ( Beginning work in process + Numbers of units started during the year ) - Incomplete units at the end of the period

Equivalent units of production = ( 200 units + 3,200 units ) - ( 400 units x ( 100% - 80% ) )

Equivalent units of production = 3,400 units - 80 units

Equivalent units of production = 3,320 units
