) when originally issued, an investment in bonds of Flushing Dough, Inc., promised to provide an annual coupon of 7.50%. The bonds have 4 years until maturity, a market price of $735, and are expected to pay all coupon on time. At maturity, however, the bonds are only forecasted to pay 84% of their par value. What is the likely yield to maturity on the bonds

Answers

Answer:

The likely yield to maturity on the bonds is 10.23%.

Explanation:

The likely yield to maturity on the bonds can be calculated using the following RATE function in Excel:

YTM = RATE(nper,pmt,-pv,fv) .............(1)

Where;

YTM = likely yield to maturity on the bonds = ?

nper = number of periods = number of years until maturity = 4

pmt = annual coupon payment = annual coupon rate * Face value = 7.50% * $1,000 = $75 = 75

pv = present value = market price = $735 = 735

fv = face value or par value of the bond = 1000

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

YTM = RATE(40,75,-735,1000) ............ (2)

Inputting =RATE(40,75,-735,1000) into a cell in an excel (Note: as done in the attached excel file), the YTM is obtained as 10.23%.

Therefore, the likely yield to maturity on the bonds is 10.23%.

The Bell Weather Co. is a new firm in a rapidly growing industry. The company is planning on increasing its annual dividend by 16 percent a year for the next 4 years and then decreasing the growth rate to 6 percent per year. The company just paid its annual dividend in the amount of $1.60 per share. What is the current value of one share of this stock if the required rate of return is 7.10 percent

Answers

Answer:

$287.01

Explanation:

The 2 stage dividend discount model would be used to determine the current value of the stock.

first stage

Present value in year 1 = (1.6 x 1.16) / 1.071 = 1.73

Present value in year 2 = (1.6 x 1.16²) / 1.071² = 1.88

Present value in year 3 = (1.6 x 1.16³) / 1.071³ =2.03

Present value in year 4 = (1.6 x 1.16^4) / 1.071^4 = 2.20

second stage

[ (1.6 x 1.16^4) x (1.06) ] / (0.071 - 0.06) = 279.17

Value of the stock = 1.73 + 1.88 + 2.03 + 2.20 + 279.17 = $287.01

The ABC Corporation is considering opening an office in a new market area that would allow it to increase its annual sales by $2.5 million. Cost of goods sold is estimated to be 40 percent of sales, and corporate overhead would increase by $300,000, not including the cost of either acquiring or leasing office space. The corporation will have to invest $2.5 million in office furniture, office equipment, and other up-front costs associated with opening the new office before considering the costs of owning or leasing the office space. A small office building could be purchased for sole use by the corporation at a total price of $3.9 million, of which $600,000 of the purchase price would represent land value, and $3.3 million would represent building value. The cost of the building would be depreciated over 39 years. The corporation is in a 30 percent tax bracket. An investor is willing to purchase the same building and lease it to the corporation for $450,000 per year for a term of 15 years, with the corporation paying all real estate operating expenses (absolute net lease). Real estate operating expenses are estimated to be 50 percent of the lease payments. Estimates are that the property value will increase over the 15-year lease term for a sale price of $4.9 million at the end of the 15 years. If the property is purchased, it would be financed with an interest-only mortgage for $2,730,000 at an interest rate of 10 percent with a balloon payment due after 15 years.
a. What is the return from opening the office building under the assumption that it is leased?
b. What is the return from opening the office building under the assumption that it is owned?
c. What is the return on the incremental cash flow from owning versus leasing?
d. In general, what other factors might the firm consider before deciding whether to lease or own?

Answers

Answer:

A. 12.02%

B. 12.56%.

C. 13.41%

D.1. How long will it take for the asset to be needed

2. How much space is needed to establish the firm.

3. How much expense will the firm incurred to help keep the assets perfectly.

Explanation:

a. Calculation to determine the return from opening the office building under the assumption that it is leased

First step is to calculate the after-tax cash flow l

Sales $2,500,000

Less Cost of goods sold $1,000,000

(40%*$2,500,000)

Gross income $1,500,000

($2,500,000-$1,000,000)

Less: Operating expense

Business expense $300,000

Real estate $225,000

(50%*$450,000)

Less: Lease payments $450,000

Interest payment-

Depreciation-

Taxable income $525,000

Less: Tax ($157,500)

(30%*$225,000)

Income after tax$367,500

($525,000-$157,500)

Add: Depreciation-

Principal-

After-tax cash flow$367,500

($525,000-$157,500)

Now let determine the return from opening the office building

Since the after tax cash flow for 15 years is the amount of $367,500 while the cash outlay is the amount of $2,500,000 using excel to determine the Internal rate of return (IRR) the return from opening the office building will be 12.02%.

Therefore the return from opening the office building under the assumption that it is leased is 12.02%

b. Calculation to determine the return from opening the office building under the assumption that it is owned.

First step is to Calculate the after-tax cash flow

Sales $2,500,000

Cost of goods sold $1,000,000

(40%*$2,500,000)

Gross income $1,500,000

($2,500,000-$1,000,000)

Less: Operating expense

Business expense $300,000

Real estate $225,000

(50%*$450,000)

Less: Lease payments

Interest payment $273,000

(10%*$2,300,000)

Less: Depreciation $84,615

Taxable income $617,385

Less: Tax at 30% $185,215

(30%*$617,385)

Income after tax $432,169

($617,385-$185,215)

Add: Depreciation$84,615

Principal0

After-tax cash flow $516,785

($432,169+$84,615)

Since the after tax cash flow for 15 years is the amount of $367,500, the residual value after 15 years is the amount of $2,006,015 calculated as ($1,489,231+$$516,785)and The cash outlay is the amount of $3,670,000 using excel to compute the Internal rate of return (IRR) the return from opening the office building

will be 12.56%.

c. Calculation to determine the return on the incremental cash flow from owning versus leasing

First step is to Calculate the difference between owning and leasing cash flows

Sales -

Cost of goods sold-

Gross income-

Less: Operating expense-

Business expense-

Real estate-

Less: Lease payments ($450,000)

Interest payment $273,000

(10%*$2,300,000)

Less: Depreciation$84,615

Taxable income $92,385

Less: Tax at 30% $27,715

(30%$92,385)

Income after tax $64,669

($92,385-$27,715)

Add: Depreciation $84,615

Principal0

After-tax cash flow $149,285

($64,669+$84,615)

Since the after-tax cash flow is the amount of $149,285 for 15 years and the cash outlay is the amount of $1,170,000 using the internal rate of return with excel the return on the incremental cash flow from owning versus leasing will be 13.41%.

d.Factors the firm might consider before deciding whether to lease or own are :

1. How long will it take for the asset to be needed

2. How much space is needed to establish the firm.

3. How much expense will the firm incurred to help keep the assets perfectly.

A new firm is developing its business plan. It will require $565,000 of assets, and it projects $452,800 of sales and $354,300 of operating costs for the first year. Management is quite sure of these numbers because of contracts with its customers and suppliers. It can borrow at a rate of 7.5%, but the bank requires it to have a TIE of at least 4.0, and if the TIE falls below this level the bank will call in the loan and the firm will go bankrupt. What is the maximum debt-to-assets ratio the firm can use

Answers

Answer:

58.11%

Explanation:

Sales = $452,800

Operating costs= 354,300

Operating Income (EBIT) = $98,500

TIE= 4.00

Maximum interest expense= EBIT/TIE= $24,625

Interest rate= 7.50%

Max. debt =Max interest/Interest rate = $328,333

Maximum debt ratio=Debt/ Assets= 58.11%

The cost of issuing new common stock is calculated the same way as the cost of raising equity capital from retained earnings. False: Flotation costs need to be taken into account when calculating the cost of issuing new common stock, but they do not need to be taken into account when raising capital from retained earnings. True: The cost of retained earnings and the cost of new common stock are calculated in the same manner, except that the cost of retained earnings is based on the firm’s existing common equity, while the cost of new common stock is based on the value of the firm’s share price net of its flotation cost.

Answers

Answer: False: Flotation costs need to be taken into account when calculating the cost of issuing new common stock, but they do not need to be taken into account when raising capital from retained earnings.

Explanation:

When issuing common stock, the firm will need to pay certain floatation costs such as underwriting fees, legal fees, and registration fees. These will reduce the net amount received from the floatation of new securities.

When raising capital from the retained earnings however, the company can avoid flotation costs because they would be acquiring funds internally and so do not have to worry about paying other entities to access it.

Consider a monopoly where consumers are currently consuming where the marginal utility is 10 units of utility for the good. The price of the product is $5. The marginal cost of producing the good is $2.00. Then consider perfectly competitive firms where consumers are currently consuming where the marginal utility is 20 units of utility for the perfectly competitive product. The price of the product is $10. At current production levels, the marginal cost of producing the good is $10.

Required:
a. Calculate the marginal utility per dollar spent by consumers in a monopolistic industry.
b. Calculate the consumer marginal utility per dollar of marginal cost for the monopoly.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

a. The marginal utility per dollar spent  in a monopolistic industry is

= Marginal utility ÷ Price

= 10 ÷ 5

= 2 utils per dollar

b. The consumer marginal utility per dollar for the monopoly is

= Marginal utility ÷ Marginal cost

= 10 ÷ 2

= 5 utils per dollar

hence by using the above formulas, the above answers should be considered

         Equipment                                         497000 Cr

Explanation:

We first need to calculate the carrying value of the equipment at the date of disposal. The carrying value is calculated as follows,

Carrying value = Cost  -  Accumulated depreciation

Depreciation 2019  =  (497000 - 33000) * 83000 / 580000

Depreciation 2019  = 66400

Depreciation 2020  =  (497000 - 33000) * 133000 / 580000

Depreciation 2020  = 106400

Depreciation 2021  =  (497000 - 33000) * 67000 / 580000

Depreciation 2021  = 53600

Carrying value = 497000  -  [ 66400 + 106400 + 53600 ]

Carrying value = $270600

1.

Gain or (Loss) on sale = Sales price  -  Carrying Value

Gain or (Loss) on sale = 253600  -  270600

Gain or (Loss) on sale = (17000)  Loss

3.

Gain or (Loss) on sale = Sales price  -  Carrying Value

Suppose a drop in the compensating wage differential between risky jobs and safe jobs has been observed. Two explanations have been put forward: • Engineering advances have made it less costly to create a safe working environment. • The phenomenal success of a new reality show Die on the Job! has imbued millions of viewers with a romantic perception of work-related fatal risks. Using demand and supply diagrams of risky jobs, show how each of the two developments can explain the drop in the compensating wage differential. Can information on the number of workers employed in the risky occupation help determine which explanation is more plausible?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

As shown in the question above, the advancement of engineering has allowed it to be cheaper for a company to promote a safe environment for professionals than to pay a higher salary for the risk they run within the work environment. This causes companies to modify the offer of risky jobs, as a way of reducing expenses. However, due to wage compensation, the demand for these jobs remains high, because professionals are attracted to compensation. To stop this demand, companies promote a compensation differential, which modifies the demand curve by decreasing it, which means that fewer people will look for these jobs.

Identify whether each of the following examples belongs in M1 or M2. If an example belongs in both, be sure to check both boxes.
Example M1 M2
Susan has $8,000 in a two-year certificate of deposit (CD).
Larry has a roll of quarters that he just withdrew from the bank to do laundry.
Raphael has $25,000 in a money market account.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The identification is as follows:

As we know that

M! money supply involved all the currecies that have physical existance i.e. notes, coins, demand deposits etc

While on the other hand, M2 involves M1 + near money i.e. mutual funds, checking deposits, money market etc  

Since Susan has 2 year CD so it would be classified as a M2 money supply

Since larry withdraw from the bank so it would be included in M1 and M2

And, since raphael has $25,000 in money market  so  would be classified as a M2 money supply

Folklore Music manufactures harmonicas. Folklore uses standard costs to judge performance. Recently, a clerk mistakenly threw away some of the records, and only partial data for July exist. Folklore knows that the total direct labor variance for the month was $350 F and that the standard labor rate was $11 per hour. A recent pay cut caused a favorable labor rate variance of $0.40 per hour. The standard direct labor hours for actual July outputs were 5,910.

Required:
a. Find the actual number of direct labor hours worked during July. First, find the actual direct labor rate per hour. Then, determine the actual number of direct labor hours worked by setting up the computation of the total direct labor variance as given.
b. Compute the direct labor rate and efficiency variances. Do these variances suggest that the manager may have made trade-offs? Explain.

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. The actual direct labor rate per hour will be:

= Standard direct labor rate per hour - favorable labor rate variance

= $11 - $0.40

= $10.60

Then, the actual direct labor hours worked during July will be calculated as:

= (5910 × $11) - $350 / $10.6

= ($65010 - $350) / $10.6

= $64660 / $10.6

= 6100

b. The direct labor rate variance will be:

= (Actual rate per hour - standard rate per hour) × Actual labor hours

= (10.60 - 11.00) × 6100

= 2440F

Direct labor efficiency variance will be:

= (6900 - 5910) × $11

= 2090U

The direct labor rate variance that was favorable shows that the manager paid a lower rate to its staffs while the direct labor efficiency variance that was unfavorable implies that the manager used less efficient workers. This indicates that a trade-off took place.

= (6900

Explanation:

Meritor, a company that makes muffler assemblies for the automotive industry, is committed to the use of kanban to pull material through its manufacturing cells. Meritor has designed each cell to fabricate a specific family of muffler products. Fabricating a muffler assembly involves cutting and bending pieces of pipe that are welded to a muffler and a catalytic converter. The mufflers and catalytic converters are pulled into the cell based on current demand. The catalytic converters are made in a specialized cell.
Catalytic converters are made in batches of 10 units and are moved in special hand carts to the fabrication cells. The catalytic converter cell is designed so that different types of catalytic converters can be made with virtually no setup loss.
Meritor hires a team of consultants. The consultants suggest a partial robotic automation as well as the safety stock to be 12.5 percent. Meritor implements these suggestions. The result is an increase in efficiency in both the fabrication of muffler assembly and the making of catalytic converters. The muffler assembly fabrication cell averages 16 assemblies per hour and the lead time is two hours’ response time for a batch of 10 catalytic converters. How many kanban cards are needed? (Round up your answer to the next whole number.)

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

The number of kanban cards that are needed can be calculated below:

Average demand, D = 16

Lead time, L = 2 hours

Safety stock, S = 12.5% = 0.125

Catalytic converters, C = 10

Using the formula, =DL(1+S) / C

= 16×2(1 + 0.125) / 10

= 32(1.125) / 10

= 36 / 10

= 3.6

= 4 approximately

Therefore, 4 kanban cards are needed.

Answers

Answer:

A. struggle to get a foot in the door

Explanation:

The example of pen was used to define the fact that most salespeople start off by asking or telling the usual instead of analysing the situation and determining the right questions to be asked from the customer which ultimately leads to most of sales individuals to struggle.

Like in this case where a salesperson is given a pen, he would start by saying that he has a pen to sell with multiple colours, they are affordable and lightweight. These questions are too generic and may not interest the customer. Instead to sale better one must ask intelligent questions that will be  relevant for the customer in order to pitch them the right kind of product.

Products A and B are joint products. Product A can be sold for $1,200 at the split-off point, or processed further at a cost of $600 and then sold for $1,700. Product B can be sold for $3,000 at the split-off point, or processed further at a cost of $800 and then sold for $4,000. The company should process further: Multiple Choice Product A. Product B. Both products. Neither of the products.

Answers

Answer:

The company should process further:

Product B.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Product A sales value at split-off point = $1,200

Cost of further processing of Product A = $600

Sales proceeds from Product A after further processing = $1,700

Product B sales value at split-off point = $3,000

Cost of further processing of Product B = $800

Sales proceeds from Product B after further processing = $4,000

b) There is no additional revenue gained from further processing of Product A.  Instead, there is a loss of $100 ($1,800 - $1,700).  This is unlike Product B where there is a gain of $200 ($4,000 - $3,800) from further processing.  The company's decision should be to sell Product A at split-off while further processing Product B to realize incremental revenue.

Answers

Answer:

A) Shortage, B) Fall in Price

Explanation:

A] Market is at equilibrium where - downward sloping Market Demand (inversely related to price), & upward sloping Market Supply (directly related to price) - are equal &  these curves intersect each other.

Above condition gives us equilibrium price & quantity.

If market price < equilibrium price, as given case 15 < 20. Then, supply being directly related to price is lesser, demand being inversely related to price is higher. So, there is a situation of excess demand, ie shortage (graphically denoted by distance between demand & supply curve at actual price below equilibrium price)

B] Dealers of hybrid vehicles increase imply increase in supply of these vehicles, rightwards shift in the supply curve. This creates excess supply ie surplus of them. It implies that competition among sellers lead to fall in price of these hybrid vehicles.

A bicameral legislature is made up of how many bodies?
O one
O two
O three
O four

Answers

Answer:

two

Explanation:

A bicameral legislature is made up of two bodies. Thus, option B is the correct option.

What is a bicameral legislature?

A bicameral legislature, which is distinguished by having two distinct assemblies, chambers, or houses, is one that practices bicameralism. Unicameralism, in which all members discuss and vote as a single body, is distinct from bicameralism. Bicameralism will be used by about 40% of national legislatures throughout the world as of 2022, compared to 60% at the national level and significantly more at the subnational level for unicameralism.

The techniques used to elect or choose the members of the two chambers sometimes varied from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. This frequently results in the membership of the two chambers being significantly different. Primary legislation frequently has to be approved by majorities in both houses of the legislature in order to be passed. If this is the case, the legislature may be seen as the epitome of bicameralism.

1. Weighted-Average method:

Cost of goods sold = $91,840 (11,200 * $8.20)

Cost of ending inventory = $6,560 (800 * $8.20)

2. LIFO method:

Cost of ending inventory = $6,400 (800 * $8.00)

Cost of goods sold = Total cost Minus Cost of Ending Inventory

= $98,400 - $6,400

= $92,000

3. FIFO method:

Cost of ending inventory = $6,720 (800 * $8.40)

b) The FIFO (First-in, First-out) method is based on the assumption that Chocolate sales are made from the first items in stock.  This means that the ending inventory of Chocolate is made up of the newest items.

On the other hand, the LIFO (Last-in, First-out) method bases its assumption on the sale of the newest Chocolate in stock while the oldest items form the bulk of the ending inventory.

The weighted-average method calculates a weighted-average unit cost of inventory by dividing the total cost of Chocolate available for sale by the total units of Chocolate for sale.  Using the period inventory system, the computations of both the cost of goods sold and the ending inventory are done at the end of the specific financial period, unlike the perpetual inventory system.
