There are linkages between the microeconomic decisions made by managers and the macroeconomic environment. There are numerous examples from the current recession of company layoffs at the micro level, directly influenced by the decline in economic activity at the macro level. For this assignment, research this linkage. How did the recession impact businesses/managers at the macro and micro levels? You may use one company as the basis of your research.

Answers

Answer:

One typical example of this linkage between the economy at the macroeconomic level, and business decisions at the macroeconomic and microeconomic level, is what happened with Lehman Brothers in 2008.

Explanation:

Lehman Brothers was one of the main investment banks in the United States. During the years prior to the financial crisis, Lehman Brothers decided to pursue a risky but profitable strategy of over leveraging -lending a lot more money than they had as deposits.

Once the financial crisis hit, a macroeconomic event, it affected the company at the macro and micro level. At the macro level because Lehman Brothers itself ceased to exist as it went bankrupt, and at the micro level, because it had to enter a process to pay off some debtors, and some of the employees who were laid off due to the dissolution of the firm.

(Round answer to 2 decimal places e.g. 2.25.)

Answers

Answer:

Variable cost per unit= $0.4

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Month Total Maintenance Costs Total Machine Hours

January $2,880 3,820

February 3,273 4,364

March 3,928 6,546

April 4,632 8,619

May 3,491 5,455

June 4,844 8,730

To calculate the variable component using the high-low method, we need to use the following formula:

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (4,844 - 2,880) / (8,730 - 3,820)

Variable cost per unit= $0.4

Cash dividends were $2. The company did not issue any bonds or repurchase any of its own common stock during the year. The net cash provided by (used in) financing activities for the year was: ___________

Answers

Answer:

$57

Explanation:

Repayment of bond = Beginning balance - Ending balance

Repayment of bond = $154 - $89

Repayment of bond = $65 (Outflow)

Increase in common stock = Beginning balance - Ending balance

Increase in common stock = $57 - $47

Increase in common stock = $10 (Inflow)

Dividend paid = $2 (Outflow)

Net cash used in financing activities = Repayment of bond + Dividend paid - Increase in common stock

Net cash used in financing activities = $65 + $2 - $10

Net cash used in financing activities = $57

So, the net cash provided by (used in) financing activities for the year was $57.

Fones Inc. and Speed Dial Corp. are two competitors in the mobile phone market. The cost incurred by each company to manufacture smartphones is $200 per unit. Although both the companies sell their smartphones at the same price, Speed Dial Corp. has a larger market share in the smartphone industry. What does this imply

Answers

Answer: C. Speed Dial Corp has been able to offer more perceived value than Fones Inc.

Explanation:

Both companies incur the same costs to produce the phone and also sell at the same price. This means that they should be selling the same number of phones in theory. This is not the case however as Speed Dial Corp is selling more.

The reason Speed Dial must be selling more phones is that they sell a better phone for the same price. In offering more value to the customer for the same price, the customers are buying more from Speed Dial than from Fones because they are getting a better deal for the same price which means that Speed Dial's phone is undervalued.

Due to a turnover, a company hires 400 employees each year, on average. Assume that an average stay of an employee in the company is 5 years. On average, how many employees does the company have?

Answers

Answer:

On average, the company has 2000 employees.

Explanation:

Since, due to a turnover, a company hires 400 employees each year, on average; assuming that an average stay of an employee in the company is 5 years, to determine, on average, how many employees does the company have, the following calculation must be performed:

Year 0 = 0

Year 1 = 400 (+400)

Year 2 = 800 (+400)

Year 3 = 1200 (+400)

Year 4 = 1600 (+400)

Year 5 = 2000 (+400)

Year 6 = 2000 (+400 -400)

Year 7 = 2000 (+400 - 400)

Therefore, on average, the company has 2000 employees.

Assume that you manage a risky portfolio with an expected rate of return of 14% and a standard deviation of 30%. The T-bill rate is 6%. Your risky portfolio includes the following investments in the given proportions: Stock A 24 % Stock B 32 Stock C 44 Your client decides to invest in your risky portfolio a proportion (y) of his total investment budget with the remainder in a T-bill money market fund so that his overall portfolio will have an expected rate of return of 13%. a. What is the proportion y? (Round your answer to 1 decimal places.) b. What are your client's investment proportions in your three stocks and in T-bills? (Round your intermediate calculations and final answers to 2 decimal places.) c. What is the standard deviation of the rate of return on your client's portfolio?

Answers

Answer:

a. 87.5%

b. Stock A: 21%; Stock B: 28%; Stock C: 38.5%; T-bill: 12.5%

c. Standard deviation of the client's portfolio: 26.25%

Explanation:

a. y is calculated as:

Risky portfolio return * y +  T-bill return * (1 - y) = Expected return of the portfolio <=> 0.14y + 0.06 ( 1-y) = 0.13 <=> y = 87.5%

b. Client investment in each stock and in T-bills:

Client investment in each stock = 0.875 * percentage of each stock in a risky portfolio ( because the risky portfolio is accounted for 87.5% of the whole investment)

=> Stock A = 24% x 0.875 = 21% ; Stock B = 32% * 0.875 = 28% ; Stock C = 44 * 0.875 = 38.5%

Client investment in T-bill = 1- y = 1 - 0.875 = 12.5%

c. Standard deviation is calculated as: Standard deviation of risky portfolio * y = 30% * 87.5% = 26.25% (because standard deviation of return in T-bill is 0)

Answers

Answer:

V = 3.5  (1 dollar circulates 3.5 times in a year)

In short term – Reduction of aggregate demand and real output

In long term – reduction of wages and increase of real output of firms

Nominal GDP will fall by $20 bilion

Explanation:

Equation of monetisation =  

Total money in circulation = Total money demanded/total output

Money Supply * Money Velocity = Price Level * GDP

V = PY/M  

Substituting the given values, we get –  

V = 336/96  

V = 3.5  

This indicates 1 dollar circulates 3.5 times in a year

In short term – Reduction of aggregate demand and real output

In long term – reduction of wages and increase of real output of firms

Nominal GDP will fall by $20 bilion

Phillips Co. is growing quickly. Dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 20 percent for the next three years, with the growth rate falling off to a constant 8 percent thereafter. If the required return is 11 percent and the company just paid a dividend of $1.45, what is the current share price

Answers

Answer:

$69.47

Explanation:

D1 = ($1.45*1.20) = $1.7

D2 = ($1.7*1.20) = $2.04

D3 = ($2.04*1.20) = $2.45

Value after year 3 = (D3*Growth Rate) / (Required rate-Growth Rate)

Value after year 3 = ($2.45*1.08) / 0.11-0.08

Value after year 3 = $2.646 / 0.03

Value after year 3 = $88.20

Current share price = Future dividend and value*Present value of discounting factor(rate%,time)

Current share price = $1.7/1.11 + $2.04/(1.11)^2 + $2.45/(1.11)^3 + $88.20/(1.11)^3

Current share price = $1.5315315 + $1.65571 + $1.7914189 + $64.49107

Current share price = $69.4697304

Current share price = $69.47

Answers

Answer:

increase as the size of the tax increase, and the increase in the deadweight loss is more rapid than the increase in the size of the tax.

Explanation:

Taxation can be defined as the involuntary or compulsory fees levied on individuals or business entities by the government to generate revenues used for funding public institutions and activities.

The different types of tax include the following;

1. Income tax: a tax on the money made by workers in the state. This type of tax is paid by employees with respect to the amount of money they receive as their wages or salary.

2. Property tax: a tax based on the value of a person's home or business. It is mainly taxed on physical assets or properties such as land, building, cars, business, etc.

3. Sales tax: a tax that is a percent of the price of goods sold in retail stores. It is being paid by the consumers (buyers) of finished goods and services and then, transfered to the appropriate authorities by the seller.

Other things being equal (ceteris paribus), the deadweight loss (loss of economic efficiency due to a lack of balance in competing economical influences for goods or services) of a tax increase as the size of the tax increase, and the increase in the deadweight loss is more rapid than the increase in the size of the tax.

If the beginning balance in Firestone Auto Repair's inventory account was a $4,000 debit, what is the new balance in the inventory account after considering the new purchases?

Answers

Answer:

$9,870

Explanation:

The computation of the  new balance in the inventory account after considering the new purchases is given below;

New balance is

= Beginning balance + value of the purchase.

where,  

Value of the purchase = purchase cost + freight cost- purchase discount

= $6,000 + $170 - $300

= $5,870

So,  

New balance is

= $4,000 + $5,870

= $9,870

A company projects an increase in net income of $108000 each year for the next five years if it invests $900000 in new equipment. The equipment has a 5-year life and an estimated salvage value of $300000. What is the annual rate of return on this investment?
a. 20.5%
b. 31.0%
c. 30.0%
d. 30.8%

Answers

Answer:

18 %

Explanation:

Annual rate of return on this investment = annual profit / average investment x 100

where,

annual profit = $108000

average investment = (initial cost + salvage value) ÷ 2

                                 = ($900000 + $300000) ÷ 2

                                 = $600,000

therefore,

annual rate of return on this investment = $108000 / $600,000 x 100

                                                                   = 18 %

Suppose that Sarita has a gross annual income of $43,000. Her annual deductions for taxes, 401(k) retirement plan contributions, and health insurance amount to $9,400. This leaves Sarita with an annual disposable income of $33,600. Dividing Sarita annual disposable income by 12, you can determine that Sarita has a monthly disposable income of $__________ .

Answers

Answer:

Monthly disposal income = $2,800

Explanation:

Disposal income is the amount left for spending after all statutory deductions and taxes have been subtracted from an employees' income.

Annual Disposal income = Annual gross Income - statutory deductions and taxes

Monthly disposal income = Annual disposal/12

                           = (43,000-9,400)/12= $2,800

Monthly disposal income = $2,800

Assume that IBM is expected to pay a total cash dividend of $5.60 next year and that dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 5% per year forever. Assuming annual dividend payments, what is the current market value of a share of IBM stock if the required return on IBM common stock is 10%?

Answers

Answer: $112

Explanation:

The following information can be gotten from the question:

Growth Rate = 5%

Dividend at end of year,D1 = 5.60

Required return, ke = 10%

Then, the current market value will be:

P0 = De/(ke-g)

Niendorf Corporation's 25-year maturity bonds have an 8.75% coupon rate with interest paid semiannually, and a par value of $1,000. if your required rate of return is 13% what is the intrinsic value of the bond

Answers

Answer: $687.10

Explanation:

The value of a bond is the present value of the bond's coupon payments plus the present value of the bond's par value at maturity.

First convert terms to semi-annual periods as the coupon rate is semi annual:

Coupon payment = (1,000 * 8.75%) / 2 = $43.75

Required return = 13% / 2 = 6.5%

Number of periods = 25 * 2 = 50 semi annual periods

The coupon payment is an annuity so the value of the bond is:

= Present value of annuity + Present value of par

= (43.75 * ( 1 - (1 + 6.5%) ⁻⁵⁰) / 6.5%) + 1,000 / ( 1 + 6.5%)⁵⁰

= $687.10

Answers

Answer:

A. The correct option is b. $46,067.

B. The correct option is d. $46,620.

Explanation:

Note: The data in this question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question with the sorted data.

The explanation of the answers is now given as follows:

A. Assuming that Rich does not maintain perpetual inventory records, what should be the inventory at January 31, using the weighted-average inventory method, rounded to the nearest dollar?

Note: See part A of the attached excel file for the calculation of the of units and cost of goods available for sale.

Since Rich does not maintain perpetual inventory records, this implies that this is a periodic inventory system. And update to inventory in a periodic inventory system are made on a regular basis, such as monthly, quarterly, etc.

From the part A attached excel file, we have:

Units of goods available for sale = 23,100

Cost of goods available for sales = $236,481

Weighted-average cost per unit = Cost of goods available for sales / Units of goods available for sale = $236,481 / 23,100 = $10.2372727272727

Inventory at January 31 = Units of inventory balance at January 31 * Weighted-average cost per unit = 4,500 * $10.2372727272727 = $46,068

From the options the closest one is b. $46,067. Therefore, the inventory at January 31 is $46,067 and the correct option is b. $46,067.

B. Assuming that Rich maintains perpetual inventory records, what should be the inventory at January 31, using the moving-average inventory method, rounded to the nearest dollar?

Note: See part B of the attached excel file for the calculation of the inventory at January 31 (in bold red color).

Under Perpetual Inventory system, the inventory is updated whenever a purchase or sale is made. It's a procedure that happens in real time.

In the Part B of the attached excel file, the following rates in light red color are made as follows:

Rate on January 6 = ($87,930 + $61,800) / 15,000 = $9.98 per unit

Rate on January 26 = ($74,865 + 86,751) / 15,600 = $10.36 per unit

From the part B attached excel file, we have:

Inventory at January 31 = $46,620.

Therefore, the correct option is d. $46,620.

he's!Once the cells in a biological machine stop working, it can never be started again. It goes into a cascade of decay, falling toward disorder and randomness. Except in the case of viruses. They can turn off and go dead. Then, if they come in contact with a living system, they switch on and multiply. The only thing that "lived" inside this monkey was the unknown agent, and it was dead, for the time being. It was not multiplying or doing anything, since the monkey's cells were dead. But if the agent touched living cells, Nancy's cells, it would come alive and begin to amplify itself. In theory, it could amplify itself around the world in the human species.

Summary of central idea: It is petrifying that even if viruses are dead, they have the potential to "come alive.”
