What will be the market price of the security if its correla- tion coefficient with the market portfolio doubles (and all other variables remain unchanged)? Assume that the stock is expected to pay a constant dividend in perpetuity.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$31.82

Explanation:

market price $50

expected rate of return /Re) = 14%

Div = $50 x 14% = $7

risk free rate (Rf) = 6%

market premium (Rm - Rf) = 8.5%

beta = ?

14% = 6% + (beta x 8.5%)

beta x 8.5% = 14% - 6% = 8%

beta = 8% / 8.5 = 0.941

if beta doubles to 1.882, then Re will be:

Re = 6% + (1.882 x 8.5%) = 22%

new market price of the stocks = $7 / 22% = $31.818 = $31.82

Savings Mart is a national retail chain. To entice the company to open a mega store in its jurisdiction, the city of Populationville donated a 20-acre tract of land to be used for construction. The land was originally purchased by the city for $250,000 three years ago. The appraisal value at the time of the donation was $300,000. For what amount should Savings Mart record the donated land

Answers

Answer:

$300,000

Explanation:

As per the Internal service revenue (IRS) and Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), when the entity who is profit making received any fixed asset as a donation than the same assets should be recorded at the fair value amount

Here the purchase price is $250,000 and the appraisal value i.e. fair value is $300,000

So the amount of donating the land should be recorded at $300,000

Suppose a U.S. Treasury bond will pay $2,500 five years from now. If the prevailing interest rate on 5-year Treasury bonds is 4.25%, compounded semiannually, the value of the bond today is closest to:

Answers

Answer:

The value of the bond today is closest to $1648.85

Explanation:

The value of the bond today is closest to:

Present Value = FV / (1+i)^n *m

FV= 2500

I = 4.25 = 0.0425

N= 5

M= 2

The value of the bond today = 2500 / (1+0.0425) ^5*2

The value of the bond today = 2500 / 1.516214468

The value of the bond today = 1648.853256

The value of the bond today = $1648.85

The Good Chocolate Company makes a variety of chocolate candies, including a 12-ounce chocolate bar (340 grams) and a box of six 1-ounce chocolate bars (170 grams)



a.
Specifications for the 12-ounce bar are 326 grams to 354 grams. What is the largest standard deviation (in grams) that the machine that fills the bar molds can have and still be considered capable if the average fill is 340 grams? (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places and final answer to 3 decimal places.)



Standard deviation ? in grams


b.
The machine that fills the bar molds for the 1-ounce bars has a standard deviation of .86 gram. The filling machine is set to deliver an average of 1.03 ounces per bar. Specifications for the six-bar box are 153 to 187 grams. Is the process capable? Hint: The variance for the box is equal to six times the bar variance.

Yes?
or

No?



c.
What is the lowest setting in ounces for the filling machine that will provide capability in terms of the six-bar box? (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places and final answer to 3 decimal places.)

Lowest setting ? in ounces

Answers

Answer:

A) ≈ 3.509 grams

B) The process is not capable because the lowest Cpk which is 1.89 ≈ 1.9 is far from the ideal 1.33 capability index number ( NO )

c) 1.051 ounces

Explanation:

A) The largest standard deviation ( in grams)

This can be calculated applying the capability index formula and according to the capability index formula the value at which a process is capable is at  : 1.33

hence the largest standard deviation =  upper limit - lower limit / 6 * 1.33

 ( 354 - 326 ) / 7.98 = 3.5087 ≈ 3.509 grams

B) we first calculate the process mean and std of the box

standard deviation = [tex]\sqrt{variance }[/tex]

std of the six-bar box = [tex]\sqrt{6*0.86^2}[/tex]  = 2.106

process mean = 6 * ( 1.03 * 28.33) = 175.079

the mean is not centered between the upper specification and the lower specification hence we will apply the formulae used in calculating the capability index for an uncentered process

Cpk = (upper value - process mean) / (3 * std of box),

         = (187 - 175.079) / ( 3 * 2.106) = 11.921 / 6.318 = 1.89

Cpk =  (process mean -  lower value ) / (3*std of box)

       = ( 175.079 - 153 ) / (3 * 2.106) = 22.079 / 6.318 = 3.49

The process is not capable because the lowest Cpk which is 1.89 ≈ 1.9 is far from the ideal 1.33 capability index number ( N0 )

c ) lowest setting

calculate the value of the mean using capability index of 1.33

Cpk = (upper value - mean ) / 3 * std

mean = 187 - 1.33 * 3 * 2.106

           = 187 - 8.40 = 178.60 grams

Cpk = ( process mean - lower value ) / 3 * std

 mean = 1.33 * 3 * 2.106 + 153

            = 8.40 + 153 = 161.40 grams

the lowest setting in ounces

= 178.60 / ( 6 bar * 28 .33)

= 178.60 / 169.98 = 1.051 ounces

Answers

Answer:

Villandry

Inventory Valuation:

a) The total value of products A, B, and C shown in inventory in the statement of financial position is:

$8,844

b) Difference and Effect of Weighted Average and FIFO Methods on Profit or Loss:

Villandry's FIFO method of valuing the cost of goods sold and ending inventory is based on the assumption that goods that are purchased first will be the first to be sold.  With this assumption, the ending inventory always reflects the newest prices, while the cost of goods sold reflects the older prices.  On the other hand, the weighted average method calculates the cost of goods sold and the ending inventory based on an average price.  It divides the cost of goods available for sale by the quantity of goods available for sale.  The average value obtained is then applied to compute the cost of goods sold and the ending inventory.  What the weighted average method achieves is to even out the unit cost of inventory.

Therefore, they do not produce the same result.  When prices are rising, as the FIFO method reflects more accurately the values of the cost of goods sold and ending inventory than the weighted average, it will also report higher profits or lower losses than the weighted average.  The weighted average does not show such fluctuations.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

               Net realisable   List price value  Purchase cost    Inventory Value

                          Shs.                Shs.           Shs (list price -24%)      Shs

Product C        4,200             4,100                   3,116                       3,116

Total cost       10,700           12,000                 9,120                       8,844

b) The purchase costs are computed by deducting 24% trade discount from the suppliers' list prices.  For example, for the total list price, taking away 24% trade discount will reduce the cost to $9,120 ($12,000 * 0.76).  This purchase cost is then compared with the net realizable value to determine the inventory value for each product.

Which of the following is not a condition that must be satisfied before interest capitalization can begin on a qualifying asset?
a) Interest has been paid to the bank
b) Interest cost is being incurred
c) Expenditures for the assets have been made
d) Activities that are necessary to get the asset ready for its intended use are in progress

Answers

Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

Cost of an asset includes the purchase price and other cost that are necessary to get the asset ready for its intended use and all these costs must be capitalized. Interest (borrowing cost) according to IAS 23( borrowing cost) states Interest directly involved in acquisition or construction or producing of qualifying assets must be capitalized i.e included in the cost of the asset.

The market capitalization rate for Admiral Motors Company is 8%. Its expected ROE is 10% and its expected EPS is $5. The firm's plowback ratio is 60%. a. Calculate the growth rate. (Input your answer as a nearest whole percent.) b. What will be its P/E ratio? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)

Answers

Answer:

(A) 6%

(B) 20

Explanation:

The market capitalization rate for Admiral motors is 8%

= 8/100

= 0.08

The expected ROE is 10%

= 10/100

= 0.1

The expected EPS is $5

The Plowback ratio is 60%

= 60/100

= 0.6

(A) The growth rate can be calculated as follows

= Plowback ratio × ROE

= 0.6 × 0.1

= 0.06×100

= 6%

Hence the growth rate is 6%

(B) The P/E ratio can be calculated as follows

= 1-0.6/0.08-0.06

= 0.4/0.02

= 20

Hence the P/E ratio is 20

mike operates a hair cutting salon that specialize in providing quick walk in service just about any type of hair. He deals with customers as they walk in the door. This includes writing down the customers name and what they desire in terms of hair cut

Answers

Complete Question:

Mike operates a hair-cutting salon that specializes in providing quick walk-in service for just about any type of haircut. He deals with customers as they walk in the door. This includes writing down the customer's name and what they desire in terms of haircut, wash, dry, and so on. This process usually takes two minutes. If no hair stylist is available, the customer then goes to the waiting area, where he/she is processed on a first-come, first-serve basis. The salon has five hair stylists who work eight hours each day. It takes, on average, 25 minutes for a stylist to greet the customer, wash and/or cut his hair, and wish him a fond farewell. Then Mike completes the process by taking the customer's money and telling him about the satisfaction guarantee offered by the shop. This final set of steps takes two minutes on average.

Requirement 1. Assuming that the waiting area always has at least one customer in it, how many customers on average can Mike's salon process in a day (assuming no problems in utilization, quality, or efficiency)?

Answer:

96 Customers

Explanation:

The time taken to process one customer includes:

Time taken by each Hair stylist to tailor the hairs of customer is 25 Minutes

Now

Time taken to process total customer in a day = Total hours available / Total time consumed by each customer

Here

Number of stylists are 5 and working hours are 8 Hrs per stylist which means total number of hours are 40 Hours per day.

By putting values, we have:

Time taken to process total customer in a day = 40 Hours / (29/60)

= 96 customers per day

this question is incomplete, so I looked for another question that can be used as an example:

"The Cutting Department has 8,000 units in process at the end of September that are 100% complete for direct materials. The units are 70% complete for direct labor and manufacturing overhead, which is added uniformly. "

the equivalent units of production for direct materials  = 8,000 units x 100% = 8,000 equivalent units

the equivalent units of production for conversion costs (direct labor and manufacturing overhead)  = 8,000 units x 70% = 5,600 equivalent units

Answers

Answer:

a) $67,250

b) $68,500

c) Investment in Day Company results in a higher return, so I guess investors would probably go for it.

Explanation:

Knight Company's net income = $750,000 - $77,500 = $672,500

total investment in Knight Company = $2,300,000 / 10% = $230,000

earnings per 1$ invested = $672,500 / $2,300,000 = $0.292391

total cash flow = $230,000 x $0.292391304 = $67,250

Day Company's net income = $750,000

earnings per 1$ invested = $750,000 / $3,600,000 = $0.208333333

total investment in Day Company = $360,000, but I borrowed $130,000 to make this investment. The $130,000 will result in $6,500 annual interest payments

total cash flow = ($360,000 x $0.208333333) - $6,500 = $75,000 - $6,500 = $68,500

Consider a project with only positive cash flows after year 0. If the company felt that the risk of the project was less than original estimates, which of the following would occur?
Answer: Required Rate of Return Net Present Value Internal Rate of Return
A Higher Higher Lower
B Higher Lower No change
C No Change Higher No change
D Lower Lower Higher
E Lower Higher No Change

Answers

Answer:

E

Explanation:

The required rate of return is the rate used to discount cash flows when calculating NPV. the more risky a project is, the higher the required rate of return. So, if it is perceived that the project is less risky, the required rate of return would decrease.

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

Because the required rate of return is used to discount cash flows when calculating NPV, a lower rate would increase NPV  

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested. The required rate is not needed when calculating IRR. so, there would be no change in IRR if discount rate is lowered.

The net assets (including goodwill) from Antle's acquisition of Demski Co. had a 2016 year-end book value of $605 million. Antle assessed the fair value of Demski at this date to be $725 million, while the fair value of all of Demski's identifiable tangible and intangible assets (excluding goodwill) was $580 million. The amount of the impairment loss that Antle would record for goodwill at the end of 2016 is:

Answers

Answer:

$0

Explanation:

As we know that the impairment loss is recognized when the book value is more than the fair value

As we can see that since book value is not greater than the fair value so the impairment loss than need to be recorded at the end of 2016 should be zero as it does not satisfy the given condition

Meenach Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours. The company based its predetermined overhead rate for the current year on 66,000 direct labor-hours, total fixed manufacturing overhead cost of $99,000, and a variable manufacturing overhead rate of $4.50 per direct labor-hour. Recently Job X387 was completed and required 220 direct labor-hours.
Required:
Calculate the amount of overhead applied to Job X387. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)

Answers

Answer:

Allocated MOH= $1,320

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated fixed overhead= $99,000

Estimated variable overhead= $4.5 per unit

Estimated direct labor hour= 66,000

Recently Job X387 was completed and required 220 direct labor-hours.

First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (99,000/66,000) + 4.5

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $6 per direct labor hour

Now, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 6*220

Allocated MOH= $1,320

Consider a risky portfolio, A, with an expected rate of return of 0.15 and a standard deviation of 0.15, that lies on a given indifference curve. Which one of the following portfolios might lie on the same indifference curve?
A. E(r) = 0.15; Standard deviation = 0.20.
B. E(r) = 0.15; Standard deviation = 0.10.
C. E(r) = 0.10; Standard deviation = 0.10.
D. E(r) = 0.20; Standard deviation = 0.15.
E. E(r) = 0.10; Standard deviation = 0.20.

Answers

Answer: C. E(r) = 0.10; Standard deviation = 0.10.

Explanation:

An indifference curve is plotted by graphing the various combinations of portfolios such that the customer in question is indifferent between them as they regard the combinations as giving them equal utility.  

For portfolios to be on the same indifference curve they would have to provide the same reward - risk ratio. The reward to risk ratio of the portfolio in question is;

=Expected return/standard deviation'

= 0.15/0.15

= 1.0

Any portfolio with this same reward - risk ratio will be on the same curve.

The Portfolio in Option C has the same reward - risk ratio (0.1 - 0.1) and so will lie on the same indifference curve.

If a firm's forecasted sales are $250,000 and its break-even sales are $190,000, the margin of safety in dollars is:_________.
a) $60,000.
b) $250,000.
c) $190,000.
d) $440,000.
e) $24,000.

Answers

Answer:

a. $60000

Explanation:

The forecasted sales of the firm = $250000

Breakeven sales of the firm = $190000

We have to find the margin of safety by using the above given information. Therefore, it can be determined by subtracting the breakeven sales from sales.

The margin of safety = sales – breakeven sales

The margin of safety = 250000 – 190000

The margin of safety = $60000

Thus, option A is correct.

An individual wants to have $95,000 per year to live on when she retires in 30 years. The individual is planning on living for 20 years after retirement. If the investor can earn 6% during her retirement years and 10% during her working years, how much should she be saving during her working life? (Hint: Treat all calculations as annuities.)

Answers

Answer:

annual contribution = $6,624.25

total amount saved in 30 years = $1,089,650

Explanation:

time until retiring = 30 years

interest rate earned until retiring = 10%

she plans to live 20 years after retiring

interest rate earned after retiring = 6%

expected distribution = $95,000 per year

in order for her to be able to have the 20 payments of $95,000, she will need:

= annual payment x PV annuity factor

annual payment = $95,000PV annuity factor (6%, 20 periods) = 11.470

total amount needed = $95,000 x 11.47 = $1,089,650

in order to determine the annual contribution we need to use the future value of an annuity formula:

FV = annual payment x FV annuity factor

FV = $1,089,650FV annuity factor (10%, 30 periods) = 164.494

annual payment = $1,089,650 / 164.494 = $6,624.25

Which of the following is true of external recruiting, compared to internal recruiting?
A. It encourages greater employee loyalty.
B. The process is cheaper.
C. The pool of talent is more limited.
D. It creates the need for multiple recruitments.
