A company needs to raise $22 million and plans to issue 20-year bonds for this purpose. The required rate of return is 7.6 percent in the current market. The company has two issue alternatives: a 7.6 percent coupon and a zero coupon bond. The company's tax rate is 34 percent. At bond maturity, how much will the company need to pay to its bondholders if it issues the coupon bonds? What if it issue the zeros? Assume semiannual compounding for both bond issues. (For simplicity's sake, assume the company can issue a partial bond.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Since the required rate of return equal to the coupon rate i.e 7.6% that means the bond issued at par

Therefore, the number of bond issued is

We assume the par value is $1,000

=$22,000,000 ÷ $1,000

= 22,000 Coupon bonds

And  

Price of zero Coupon bond is

= $1,000 × (1.038)^-40

= $224.96

And, Number of coupon bond is

= 22,000,000 ÷ $224.96

= 97,795 zero Coupon bond

Now the payment made to bondholders in case of issuing the coupon bond is

= (Last Coupon payment + face value) × number of bond

= (1000 + 36) ×22,000

= $22,836,000 or 22.836 million

And in case of issuance of the zero coupon bond, the payment is

= Number of bonds × face value

= 97,795 × 1000

= 97,795,000 or 97.795 million

The time period doubles and the rate is half

Answer:

COST OF Goods SOLD $ 1,1539,110

Explanation:

Fultz Company

Schedule  of Cost of Goods Sold for 2020

As there are no beginning and ending finished goods inventories the total units produced are sold. (Finished Goods   required       31410  Units)

Inventories raw materials : beginning, 10,120 pounds

Add Direct Materials Purchases 36770 pounds

Less Inventories ending raw materials , 15,480 pounds

Direct Materials Used 31410 pounds

Materials 1 pound at $6 per pound= $ 6*  31410  Units=  $ 188460

Direct labor 3 hours at $12 per hour= $ 36*  31410  Units= $ 1130780

Manufacturing Overhead $7 per direct labor hour= $ 7*  31410  Units=

                                                                                             $ 219870

Total Manufacturing Costs  $ 1,1539,110

There are no beginning and ending work in process inventories so the total manufacturing cost gives us the COST OF Goods SOLD.

Jordon and Heidi share income equally. For the current year, the partnership net income is $40,000. Jordon made withdrawals of $14,000, and Heidi made withdrawals of $15,000. At the beginning of the year, the capital account balances were: Jordon, Capital, $40,000; Heidi, Capital, $58,000. Jordon's capital account balance at the end of the year is a.$46,000 b.$68,000 c.$74,000 d.$54,000

Answers

Answer:

a.$46,000

Explanation:

A partner ship account records the transactions related to partnership. All transaction of withdrawal, Profit allocation etc. are recorded to determine the closing balance of each partner.

Ending Capital Balance = Beginning Capital balance + Income allocation for the year - withdrawals

Jordon's Ending Capital Balance = $40,000 + ( $40,000 x 0.5 ) - $14,000

Jordon's Ending Capital Balance = $40,000 + $20,000 - $14,000

Jordon's Ending Capital Balance = $46,000

Answers

Answer:

1.272 per share

Explanation:

The computation of earnings per share is shown below:-

Weighted Average number of Common shares outstanding = outstanding common shares ÷ Net income

= 900,000 ÷ $707,810

= 1.272 per share

Where,

Net Income = Preferred Dividends ÷ Weighted Average number of Common shares outstanding

= $655,000 ÷ (1 + 0.05) + ( 60,000 × 8 months ÷ 12 months) × 1.05 + (72,000 × 7 months ÷ 12 months)

= $623,810 + 40,000 × 1.05 + 42,000

= $623,810 + 42,000 + 42,000

= 707,810

Allegheny Company ended Year 1 with balances in Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts of $68,000 and $3,450, respectively. During Year 2, Allegheny wrote off $6,300 of Uncollectible Accounts. Using the percent of receivables method, Allegheny estimates that the ending Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance should be $5,400. What amount will Allegheny report as Uncollectible Accounts Expense on its Year 2 income statement

Answers

Answer:

$8,250

Explanation:

Relevant data provided for compute the Uncollectible Accounts Expense is here below:-

Amount written off = $6,300

Closing balance = $5,400

Opening balance = $3,450

The computation of Uncollectible Accounts Expense is shown below:-

Uncollectible Accounts Expense = Amount written off + Closing balance - Opening balance

= $6,300 + $5,400 - $3,450

= $11,700 - $3,450

= $8,250

Therefore for computing the Uncollectible Accounts Expense we simply applied the above formula.

If a firm has retained earnings of $2.7 million, a common shares account of $4.7 million, and additional paid-in capital of $9.4 million, how would these accounts change in response to a 10 percent stock dividend? Assume market value of equity is equal to book value of equity.

Answers

Answer:

Change in retained earnings = $1.02 million (Decrease)

Change in common shares account = $5.17 million (Increase)

Change in additional paid-in capital = $10.61 million (Increase)

Explanation:

Given:

Retained earnings = $2.7 million

Common shares account = $4.7 million

Additional paid-in capital = $9.4 million

Stock dividend = 10%

Find:

Changes in account.

Computation:

1. Change in retained earnings

Change in retained earnings = Retained earnings - (Retained earnings - Common shares account - Additional paid-in capital)Stock dividend

Change in retained earnings = $2.7 million - ($2.7 million - $4.7 million - $9.4 million)10%

Change in retained earnings = $2.7 million - 1.68 million

Change in retained earnings = $1.02 million (Decrease)

2. Change in common shares account

Change in common shares account = Common shares account (1+Stock dividend)

Change in common shares account = $4.7 million (1+10%)

Change in common shares account = $5.17 million (Increase)

3. Change in additional paid-in capital

Change in additional paid-in capital = Additional paid-in capital + (Additional paid-in capital + Retained earnings)Stock dividend

Change in additional paid-in capital = $9.4 million + ($9.4 million + $2.7 million)10%

Change in additional paid-in capital = $9.4 million + 1.21 million

Change in additional paid-in capital = $10.61 million (Increase)

Dermody Snow Removal's cost formula for its vehicle operating cost is $2,990 per month plus $329 per snow-day. For the month of December, the company planned for activity of 23 snow-days, but the actual level of activity was 21 snow-days. The actual vehicle operating cost for the month was $10,860. The spending variance for vehicle operating cost in December would be closest to:

Answers

Answer:

-$303 Unfavorable

Explanation:

The computation of spending variance is shown below:-

Spending variance = Flexible budget - Actual cost

= (23 × $329 + $2,990) - $10,860

= $7,567 + $2,990 - $10,860

= $10,557 - $10,860

= -$303 Unfavorable

Therefore for computing the spending variance we simply subtracted the actual cost from flexible budget.

Prime costs    $160,000        $1,500,000               $1,660,000

Direct labor hours 20,000       160,000                     180,000

Number of setups 60                   40                                 100

Number of moves      180             120                              300

First we find the rate by dividing the overhead costs with the corresponding cost driver as follows.

Overhead costs:                               Rate

Setting up equipment $240,000 = Setting up equipment / Number of setups=$240,000/100=2400

Moving materials 120,000   =   Moving materials/Number of moves

                                               120,000/300=400

Machine 200,000         =   Machining/Machine hours    

                                        =  200,000/ 90,000=2.222

Inspecting   160,000  =  Inspection/Inspection hours

                                        = 160,000/18000= 8.89

Now we find the overhead applied to the scented cards by multiplying the rate to the  corresponding overhead activity of the scented cards.

Activity                        Rate                Scented Cards

Setups:                        2400                   2400*60=$ 144,000

Moving materials:       400                    400*180= $72000

Machining:                    2.22                  2.22*10,000=$22,200

Inspection:                   8.89                  8.89*2000= $17,777.78

Frame your response relative to the financial manager's fiduciary duty to maximize shareholder's wealth.

Answers

Answer: The answer is provided below

Explanation:

The publicly traded firm of my choice is Amazon.

a. Amazon would in its initial phase have encountered challenges as a result of the inculcating of financial management practises. At the beginning, the founders and the employees may not be willing to disclose all the profits on their books of accounts.

Also, the use of debt might not be taken as a healthy sign at the beginning. The preparation of statement of position might not be taken seriously and the internal control mechanisms will have been challenging to put up and also keep accountability.

b. It would have been really difficult for managers to sustain best practises during pressures. Also, stakeholders due to their personal goals might not allow finance manager to independently work. The pressure to exhibit certain level of sales or profit may also be there.

Furthermore, the lagging or leading of expenses might be done to show

lesser or higher profit. A materially price sensitive information might not be disclosed or reported. Finally, the extent of any loss might also not be reported as a result of internal pressures.

Assets are through during the form of money, as extra money is earned whenever a note is given.Long-term assets are rising by $25,000 at either the time of requirement throughout the form of a large-term note paid. It is indeed a longer-term burden. $5,000 notice is shown as current assets throughout the income statement on Dec 31, 2018, while the resulting $20,000 notice would be shown as significant longer-term liabilities.

Answers

Answer:

Blackstone Corporation

1. A schedule that discloses the individual costs making up the balance in the land account in respect of land site 11 as of September 30, 2022:

Cost of Land =              $600,000

Broker's Commission =  $36,000

Legal Fees  =                    $6,000

Title Insurance =              $18,000

Razing of old building =  $75,000

Total  =                          $735,000

2. A schedule that discloses the individual costs that should be capitalized in the office building account as of September 30, 2022:

Payment to contractor for building =  $3,000,000

Plans, specifications, and blueprints =      $12,000

Architect's fees (design & supervision = $95,000

Capitalized Interest ($3m x14%/10 x 2) = $84,000

Total =                                                    $3,191,000

Explanation:

a) The cost of land to recognize includes the actual cost for the parcel of land, including the building which was razed.  All other expenses incurred ordinarily and necessarily in order to put the land to its intended use are also capitalized.  The costs for the broker's commission, legal fees, title insurance, and razing of old building were incurred ordinarily and necessarily for the land and are therefore capitalized in determining the value of the land.

b) The capitalized interest portion for the building is the interests paid to date.  The contractor's fee, payments for plans, architect's fee, and interests are included as costs of the building.

Refer to the following selected financial information from McCormick, LLC. Compute the company's days' sales in inventory for Year 2. (Use 365 days a year.) Year 2 Year 1 Cash $ 38,900 $ 33,650 Short-term investments 104,000 67,000 Accounts receivable, net 92,500 86,500 Merchandise inventory 128,000 132,000 Prepaid expenses 13,500 11,100 Plant assets 395,000 345,000 Accounts payable 106,400 114,800 Net sales 718,000 683,000 Cost of goods sold 397,000 382,000

Answers

Answer:

47.0 days

Explanation:

As per the given question the solution of company's days' sales in inventory is provided below:-

Company's days sales uncollected for year 2 = Total number of days in a year × Accounts receivables ÷ Net sales

= 365 × $92,500 ÷ $718,000

= 365 × 0.1289

= 47.0 days

So, we have calculated the Company's days sales uncollected for year 2 by putting the values into the formula.

On September 1, Year 1, Gomez Company collected $9,000 in advance from a customer for services to be provided over a one-year period beginning on that date. How much revenue would Gomez Company report related to this contract on its income statement for the year ended December 31, Year 1? How much would the company report as net cash flows from operating activities for Year 1?

Answers

Answer:

$3,000 and $9,000

Explanation:

In the income statement only four months revenue is recorded i.e from September 1 to December 31      

= $9,000 × 4 months ÷ 12 months

= $3,000

And, under the operating activities the whole amount i.e $9,000 is to be recorded and added to the net income as it is inflow of cash and the same is added using the direct method of the cash flow statements

Crane Company required production for June is 112000 units. To make one unit of finished product, three pounds of direct material Z are required. Actual beginning and desired ending inventories of direct material Z are 290000 and 310000 pounds, respectively. How many pounds of direct material Z must be purchased

Answers

Answer:

Purchases= 356,000 pounds

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production= 112,000 units.

Standard quantity= 3 pounds of direct material Z

Beginning inventory= 290,000 pounds

Desired ending inventory= 310,000 pounds

To calculate the purchase required for direct material, we need to use the following formula:

Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Purchases= 112,000*3 + 310,000 - 290,000

Purchases= 356,000 pounds

Hardware is adding a new product line that will require an investment of $ 1 comma 476 comma 000. Managers estimate that this investment will have a​ 10-year life and generate net cash inflows of $ 300 comma 000 the first​ year, $ 290 comma 000 the second​ year, and $ 240 comma 000 each year thereafter for eight years. Assume the project has no residual value. Compute the ARR for the investment. Round to two places

Answers

Answer:

42,51%

Explanation:

Accounting Rate of Return (ARR) = Average Profits / Average Investment

Calculation of Average Profits

Average Profit = Sum of Profits / Number of Years

                        = (300,000+290,000+240,000×8)/10

                        = $2,510,000 / 8

                        = $313,750

Calculation of Average Investment

Average Investment = Initial Investment + Scrape Value / 2

                                  = $1,476,000/2

                                  = $738,000

Accounting Rate of Return (ARR) = $313,750/$738,000×100

                                                      = 42,51%
