Answers

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation of labor productivity for each of the weeks is shown below:-

Week         Crew size      Yards installed      labor productivity

1                         4                    97                        24.25

2                         3                   71                          23.67

3                         4                   98                         24.5

4                          2                  54                         27

5                         3                   63                         21

6                         2                    52                         26

Therefore for computing the labor productivity for each week we simply divide the yards installed by crew size.

b. Perhaps even-sized crews are better than uncommon sizes and a crew of 2 seems to be performing best among the others

The outstanding bonds of Riverside Tires Inc. provide a real rate of return of 5.6 percent. If the current rate of inflation is 4.68 percent, what is the actual nominal rate of return on these bonds

Answers

Answer: 10.54%

Explanation:

The Real rate of return is calculated as;

(1 + Real Rate) = (1 + Nominal Rate) / (1 + Inflation Rate)

1 + 0.056 = ( 1 + n) / ( 1 + 0.0468)

1.056 = (1 + n) / 1.0468

1.1054208‬ = 1 + n

n = 0.1054208

"Customer Z is a single 26-year-old man who earns $125,000 annually. He informs you that he is getting married and that his new wife's income of $75,000 per year will put them into the highest federal tax bracket. The couple will have investable income of $25,000 per year. The couple wishes to buy a house in 5 years that will be substantially more expensive than the condominium in which they currently reside.

Answers

Answer:

In order to reduce taxable income and at the same time meet the customer's need for a large cash down payment, you should advice him to invest in stocks. The stock market generally yields high returns and since the customer is young, he can afford the risk. Also, and probably most important, capital stock gains are taxed at a much lower rate than interest income (vs investing in bonds).

Answers

Answer:

My best advice for the spouse would be to designate herself as the new account owner, and since she is 62, she can start taking regular distributions from it. Any distributions that she takes will be taxed as ordinary income (the same rule would have applied to the late husband).

Explanation:

If she had her own IRA account (which is doubtful since she doesn't work), she could also roll over her late spouse's balance into her own account.

The wife's third option would be to treat herself as a beneficiary, not the owner or spouse, but that would only complicate things and result in higher costs.

Calculate the elasticity of a call option with a premium of $6.50 and a strike price of $61. The call has a hedge ratio of 0.7, and the underlying stock’s price is currently $47.

Answers

Answer:

The Elasticity of the call option = [tex]\mathbf{ 5.06 \%}[/tex]

Explanation:

From the given information:

For $1 change in stock price

the percentage  of change in stock price = ΔS/S

ΔS/S = (1× 100)/47 = 2.127659574

ΔC = hedge ratio × ΔS

ΔC = 0.7 × 1

ΔC = 0.7

However , the percentage change in the stock call option price = ΔC/C

= (0.7 × 100) / 6.50

= 70/6.50

= 10.76923077

The Elasticity of the call option = [tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{percentage \ change \ in \ the \stock \ call \ option \ price }{percentage \ change \ in \ the \ stock \ price}}[/tex]

The Elasticity of the call option = [tex]\mathbf{ \dfrac{10.76923077 }{2.127659574}}[/tex]

The Elasticity of the call option = [tex]\mathbf{ 5.06 \%}[/tex]

The managerial accountant at Aquatics Pools and Spas assess a fixed overhead budget variance of U in the month of April. The standard hours in April were hours and the standard rate was projected at per machinehour. There were unforeseen complications that involved raw materials and the standard rate projected per machinehour was inaccurate. What was the standard rate per machinehour if the standard fixed overhead cost of production is ​? What is the budgeted fixed overhead amount if the actual fixed overhead is ​?

Answers

Answer: a. $14.17 /machine hour; $39,700

Explanation:

a. What was the standard rate per-machine hour if the standard fixed overhead cost of production is $41,100?

Standard Fixed Overhead Cost of Production = Standard Hours * Standard Rate

41,100 = 2,900 hours in April * Standard Rate

Standard Rate = 41,100/2,900

Standard Rate = 14.17 per machine hour

b. What is the budgeted fixed overhead amount if the actual fixed overhead is ​$43,100?

Budgeted Fixed Overhead= Actual Fixed overhead - Fixed overhead unfavourable variance

= 43,100 - $3,400 U in the month of April

Explanation:

the reserve ratio is the reserve requirement on commercial banks to deposit a percentage of their deposit liabilities to the Central Bank so as not to lend or invest all of them. Therefore when reserve ratio is increased, excess reserves available to banks decrease as they are required to keep more funds with the Central Bank. In the US, the Federal Reserve is in charge of setting the reserve ratio which is specified in Regulation D

You have just purchased a new warehouse. To finance the purchase, you've arranged for a 30-year mortgage loan for 80 percent of the $2,800,000 purchase price. The monthly payment on this loan will be $17,000. a. What is the APR on this loan

Answers

Answer:

the APR on this loan is 8.68 %.

Explanation:

First determine the nominal rate compounded monthly on this mortgage as follows :

n = 30 × 12 = 360

Pv = $2,800,000 × 80% = $2,240,000

pmt = - $17,000

p/yr = 12

FV = $0

r = ?

Using a Financial Calculator, the nominal rate compounded monthly, r on this mortgage is 8.3588 or 8.36 %.

Then, find the Annual Percentage Rate :

8.36     Shift NOM %

12         Shift P/YR

Shift EFF%   8.68 %

Again using a Financial calculator as above, the APR on this loan will be 8.6879 or 8.68 %

Schrute Farm Sales buys portable generators for $470 and sells them for $740. He pays a sales commission of 5% of sales revenue to his sales staff. Mr. Schrute pays $5,000 a month rent for his store, and also pays $2,200 a month to his staff in addition to the commissions. Mr. Schrute sold 600 generators in June.

Answer:

139,800

Explanation:

Total Revenue = (quantity sold * price) = (600 * $740) = $444,000

Purchase cost = (purchase price * quantity) = (470 * 600) = $282,000

Variable selling cost = 5% of total revenue = (0.05 * 444,000) = $22,200

Total variable cost = (cost of purchase + variable selling price) = $(282,000 + 22,200) = $304,200

Contribution margin = (revenue - variable cost) = (444,000 - 304,000) = $139,800

Therefore, CONTRIBUTION MARGIN = $139,800

If expected dividends grow at 7% and the appropriate discount rate is 9%, what is the value of a stock with an expected dividend one year from now of $1.00?

Answers

Answer:

P0 = $49.0825 rounded off to $49.08

Explanation:

The value of a stock whose dividends are expected to grow at a constant percentage is calculated using the constant growth model of DDM or dividend discount model. The DDM values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price of the stock today under this model is,

P0 = D1 / (r - g)

Where,

D1 is the dividend expected for the next periodr is the required rate of return or discount rateg is the growth rate in dividends

To calculate the price today or P0, we use D1. Thus, as the constant growth rate will apply from Year 2, we will first calculate the price of the stock at Year 1 or P1 using the D2. Then we will discount this P1 back to P0 by dividing it by (1+r).

P1 = 1 * (1+0.07)  /  (0.09 - 0.07)

P1 = $53.5

Price of the stock today is,

P0 = P1 / (1+r)

P0 = 53.5 / (1+0.09)

P0 = $49.0825 rounded off to $49.08

The value of the stock should be $50.

The calculation is as follows;

The  value of the stock is

= Expected dividend ÷ (required rate of return - growth rate)

= $1 ÷ (9% - 7%)

= $50

D. The firm’s unique set of resources, capabilities and core competencies
E. The experiences and capabilities of the firm’s top management team.

Answers

Answer:

C. The worldwide economic situation

Explanation:

These are various advantages for a company that expands into the international market. Having a presence on multiple countries gives advantage of being able to leverage on cheaper labour in some locations, unique capabilities of certain countries, and more favourable political climate for doing business.

Modes of expansion into international market are exporting, liscensing, partnering, acquisitions, and greenfield venturing.

The decision on the entry mode for international expansion includes competitive conditions in the industry, government policies, experience of the companies team, and unique capabilities of the company.

Consideration is not given to worldwide economic situation, but focus is more on the country into which expansion is to occur.

Suppose you know a company's stock currently sells for $90 per share and the required return on the stock is 9 percent. You also know that the total return on the stock is evenly divided between a capital gains yield and a dividend yield. If it's the company's policy to always maintain a constant growth rate in its dividends, the current dividend is $_______ per share.

Answers

Answer:

$3.72

Explanation:

in order to determine the price of the stock we use the dividend discount model:

P₀ = Div₁ / (Re - g)

P₀ = $90Div₁ = ?Re = 9%g = 9% / 2 = 4.5%

Div₁ = P₀ x (Re - g)

Div₁ = $90 x (9% - 4.5%) = $90 x 4.5% = $4.05

now the current dividend (Div₀) = Div₁ / (1 + Re) = $4.05 / (1 + 9%) = $4.05 / 1.09 = $3.7156 = $3.72

JoPacks sold 500 backpacks in September. Total variable costs were $7,500, total fixed costs were $10,000, and profit was $4,000. If JP sold 1,000 backpacks, what would their profit be

Answers

Answer:

$18,000

Explanation:

Total revenue - total cost = profit

total cost = variable cost + fixed cost

when 500 units were sold

total revenue - ( $10,000 + $7,500) = $4,000.

revenue = $21,500

to determine profit when 1000 units are sold, we have to determine the price and average variable cost

Price = revenue / total unit sold = $21,500 / 500 = $43

Average variable cost = $7,500 / 500 = $15

For 1000 units sold

revenue = price x units sold = 1000 x $43 = $43,000

total variable cost = $15 x 1000 = $15,000

total cost = $15,000 + $10,000 = $25,000

Profit =  $43,000 - $25,000 = $18,000

c. there is upward pressure on the price level, and the government may want to conduct contractionary fiscal policy.
d. there is upward pressure on the price level, and the government may want to conduct expansionary fiscal policy.
e. there is downward pressure on the price level, and the government may want to conduct expansionary fiscal policy.

Answers

Answer:

e. there is downward pressure on the price level, and the government may want to conduct expansionary fiscal policy.

Explanation:

At the time of boom in the economy, the unemployment rate is beneath than the rate i.e. natural also it gives rise to the growth of the economy, along with it the expenditures, consumer spending also increased that ultimately increased the disposable income.

This results in the upward movement in terms of pressure on the aggregate demand that leads to a rise in the level of price and the real GDP also rises which reduced the unemployment

But when the aggregate demand is less so there is a downward pressure on the price as the level of price declines so that the aggregate demand increased and it is requirement made by the government for an  expansionary fiscal policy that give increased in government spending or taxes decreased in order to raise the aggregate demand

C. Calculate the machine's net present value using a discount rate of 10%.
D. Assuming Corn Doggy, Inc.'s cost of capital is 10%, is the investment acceptable?

Answers

Answer:

1. 6.52 years

IRR = 10.93%

NPV = $9,851.30

4. yes

Explanation:

Payback calculates the amount of time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from it cumulative cash flows

Payback period = Amount invested / cash flow

$215,000 / $33,000 = 6.52 years

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.  

NPV and IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 0 = $-215,000

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 12 = $33,000

I = 10%

NPV = $9,851.30

IRR = 10.93%

The project is acceptable because the IRR is greater than the cost of capital

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

How much is net working capital? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole number, e.g., 32.)

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1. Before computing the stockholder equity first we have to determine the total assets and the total liabilities which is shown below:

As we know that

Total Assets = Current Assets + Net Fixed Assets

= $2,090 + $9,830

= $11,920

Total Liabilities = Current Liabilities + Long-term Debt

= $1,710 + $4,520

= $6,230

So,

Stockholders’ Equity = Total Assets - Total Liabilities

= $11,920 - $6,230

= $5,690

2. The net working capital is

Net Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities

=  $2,090 - $1,710

= $380

Answers

Answer:

$81 million in bonds issued January 1, 2018

coupon rate 12%, semiannual 6% interest

maturity = 10 years x 2  = 20 periods

market interest rate = 14% / 2 = 7% semiannual

1) market price of the bonds:

PV of face value = $81,000,000 / (1 + 7%)²⁰ = $20,931,939.23

PV of coupon payments = $4,860,000 x 10.59401 (PV annuity factor, 7%, 20 periods) = $51,486,888.60

market price = $72,418,827.83 ≈  $72,418,828

2) January 1, 2018, bonds issued at a discount

Dr Cash 72,418,828

Dr Discount on bonds payable 8,581,172

    Cr Bonds payable 81,000,000

3) June 30, 2018, first coupon payment

Dr Interest expense 4,999,318

    Cr Cash 4,860,000

    Cr Discount on bonds payable 139,318

amortization of bond discount = ($72,418,828 x 7%) - $4,860,000 = $4,999,318 - $4,860,000 = $139,318

4) December 31, 2018, second coupon payment

Dr Interest expense 5,079,070

    Cr Cash 4,860,000

    Cr Discount on bonds payable 219,070

amortization of bond discount = ($72,558,146 x 7%) - $4,860,000 = $5,079,070 - $4,860,000 = $219,070

On November 1, Barnes Corporation has 9,200 units of Product A on hand. During the month, the company plans to sell 44,200 units of Product A, and plans to have 10,950 units on hand at end of the month. How many units of Product A must be produced during the month

Answers

Answer:

45,950 units

Explanation:

To get the number of units of product A to be produced during the month, we'll make use of the formula below

Units produced = Ending inventory + Units - Beginning inventory

= 10,950 + 44,200 - 9,200

= 45,950

Therefore, the units of product A that must be produced during the month is 45,950 units

In 2013, Jack and Shirley Wright moved from Riverside, in Southern California, up to Santa Clara, in Northern California, when Jack's company opened a new branch office there. They decided to rent for a while so they could get to know the area before buying a home. Three weeks ago, they finally found and put a contract on a lovely 3-bedroom ranch, and the sellers accepted the first offer. They took that as a good sign, but now it's only 5 days until the close of escrow and they still haven't signed the escrow papers yet. In fact, they aren't due to sign the escrow papers until the day before the actual close of escrow. The Wrights are under the impression that something is wrong, because when they sold their last home, the escrow instructions had to be signed by both parties to the transaction immediately after they all signed the purchase agreement--about 60 days ahead of the actual close of escrow date. Which of the following is true of this situation?a. Their current agent has violated his fiduciary duties to them because he is mishandling their finances, and putting off handling the escrow until the last minute, thereby risking their new home and monies.b. Their agent in Riverside was simply being cautious by handling the escrow so early in the game, because in California, escrow signing generally takes place in the last 2 weeks prior to the actual close of escrow.c. The escrow practices in Southern California differ from those in Northern California. In Southern California, the escrow instructions are signed by the buyer and seller shortly after theyve signed the purchase agreement, just after the start of escrow, which is about 60 days prior to the actual close of escrow. In Northern California, the escrow instructions are usually not signed until one or two days just before the close of escrow.d. As of December 2014, the escrow practices have been changed from what they were in 2013 (when the Wrights sold their previous home), to stipulate that the escrow signing date and location are to be determined by both the buyer and the seller, as well as to the broker who is in charge of handling the escrow proceedings. Therefore, there is no specific regulation that sets forth the date or time for such proceedings. However, their agent was negligent in not explaining this to them, as well as not asking for their input into the signing date.
