In November, Michael makes a contract with Jackson Auto Sales to purchase a new car for $18,000 to be delivered to Alexander just before the Christmas holidays, in mid-December. The title to the car is to be in Alexander's name. Michael pays the full purchase price, calls Alexander and tells him about the gift, and takes off for a six-month vacation in Europe. Is Alexander an intended third party beneficiary of the contract between Michael and Jackson Auto Sales

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes.  

Alexander is an intended third party beneficiary of the contract between Michael and Jackson Auto Sales.

Explanation:

In the law of contracts, Alexander becomes a third-party beneficiary of the contract between Michael and Jackson Auto Sales, and he has the right to sue in the contract notwithstanding that he was not an active party to the contract.  Some of the factors that may be present to show that a Alexander is an intended beneficiary are: (1) the contract's performance is rendered directly to Alexander; (2) Alexander has rights to control the details of the performance; or (3) there is an express designation in the contract, e.g. the title to the car is in Alexander's name.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete as all the important data are omitted from it. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Your estimate of the market risk premium is 9%. The risk-free rate of return is 3.8% and General Motors has a beta of 1.4. According to the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), what is its expected return?

Options:

A) 16.4%

B) 17.2%

C) 14.8%

D) 15.6%

The question is now answered as followed:

Capital asset pricing model (CAPM) can be described as a model that is employed to compute a theoretical required rate of an asset in order decide whether or not to add assets a portfolio of investment that is well-diversified.

According to the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), the expected return can be calculated using the following formula:

Expected return = Risk-free rate + (Beta * Market ris premium) .......... (1)

Where;

Risk-free rate of return = 3.8%

Market risk premium = 9%

Beta = 1.4

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

Expected return = 3.8% + (1.4 * 9%) = 16.40%

Therefore, the correct option is option A) 16.4%.

Discount on Bonds Payable    $231033

            Bonds Payable                        $3400000 Cr

Explanation:

The issuance of bond on January 1 is at a discount as the coupon rate paid by the bond is less than the market interest rate. In such case the bond is issued at a lower value than its par/face value. The discount on bonds payable is the difference between the face value and the cash received on issuance.

The entry to record the issues include a debit to cash account as cash is received, a debit to the discount on bonds payable account for the amount of discount and a credit to bonds payable account as liability is created as a result of the issuance of the bonds.

Discount = 3400000 - 3168967 = 231033

Answers

Answer:

It will incur an Opportunity cost of $8,000.

Explanation:

It will incur the opportunity cost of $8000 because the additional unit produces by the company then the additional revenue that is generated will be equal to the amount (25 - 20) x 12,000 = 60,000. Since the additional cost, that incurs for the production of 12000 units is 52000. Therefore the profit earned is $8000.

So if the company does not produce it then it will lose the profit of $8000.

a. The theoretical minimum number of workstations is:___________
b. The assignment of tasks to workstations should be:________

Were you able to assign all the activities to workstations equivalent to the theoretical minimum workstation ?

c. The efficiency of the assembly line is:________

Answers

Answer:

Please see explanation below.

Explanation:

a. Cycle time = Production time available per hour / Units required per hour

= 60 / 5

= 12minutes

Minimum number of workstations = Sum of the task time / Cycle time

Sum of task time

= 8 + 10 + 8 + 10 + 8 + 4

= 48

The theoretical minimum number of work stations is

= 48 / 12

= 4

b. In order to assign the tasks to the work station, events that precede the task must be considered together with the time taken to complete each task.

°Task A This task is assigned to work station 1 and no task would further be assigned to work station 1, otherwise it will exceed the cycle time.

°Task B. This next task will be assigned to work station 2, no additional task will be assigned to station 2.

Task C is assigned to workstation 3, hence can no longer accept any other assigned task.

°Task D is the next task and will be assigned to work station 4, and we cannot assign any more task to work station 4.

°Task E and F will not be assigned as there are no more available stations.

Task Time Workstation

A. 8 1

B. 10 2

C. 8 3

D. 10 4

E. 8 -

F. 4 -

Please note that due to the theoretical minimum number of work station, which is 4, it will not be possible to assign task to all the workstations hence task E and F remains unassigned.

C. Efficiency of the assembly line

Efficiency ;

= Sum of task times / Actual number of work stations × cycle time

Although the actual number of required workstation is 5 but we cannot assign task E and F due to the theoretical minimum number of workstation. Therefore, additional work station will be required and there are 5 work stations in total.

= 48 ÷ (5 × 12) × 100

= 80%

The theoretical minimum should be = 4

The efficiency of the assembly line should be 80 percent

The production time = 60

The units that are required per hour = 5

[tex]cycle time = \frac{minutes in one hour}{units needed in a day} \\\\cycle time=\frac{60}{5}[/tex]

= 12

The workstation = 8+10+8+10+8+4

You purchased a share of stock for $120. One year later you received $1.82 as a dividend and sold the share for $136. What was your holding-period return

Answers

Answer:

Holding period return =14.85 %

Explanation:

The return on stock is the sum of the dividends earned and capital gains made during the holding period of the investment.

Dividend is the proportion of the profit made by a company which is paid to shareholders.  

Capital gains is another type of the return made on an equity investment as a result of increase in the value of the shares. It is difference between the cost of the share and the value at the time of disposal.

Therefore, we can can compute the return on the investment as follows:

Holding period return = (Dividend + capital gain)/Begin Price of stock × 100  

Dividend = $1.82

Capital gains= 136 - 120 = 16

Total dollar return on Investment = 1.82 + 16= $ 17.82

                                      = 17.82/120 × 100 = 14.85 %

How much life insurance should you purchase, if you assume a 3% inflation rate

Answers

Answer:

assuming the  interest rate is = 15% the  life insurance should you should purchase = $497854.0773

Explanation:

Given that :

Annual income receipt = $58000

Assumption:

If we assume that the inflation rate π = 3% = 0.03

Also , let assume that the interest rate is = 15%  = 0.15 since it is not given too

Then the effective interest rate = [tex]\dfrac{ (i-\pi)}{(1+\pi)}[/tex]

the effective interest rate = [tex]\dfrac{ (0.15-0.03)}{(1+0.03)}[/tex]

the effective interest rate = [tex]\dfrac{ (0.12)}{(1.03)}[/tex]

the effective interest rate = 0.1165

the effective interest rate = 11.65%

Since n = [tex]\infty[/tex]

The Principal amount of how much life insurance should you purchase is;

= Annual income receipt/the effective interest rate

= $58000/ 0.1165

= $497854.0773

B.Number of new shares $500,000

Numbers of right needed 5.8

C.Ex-rights price $40.82

Value of a right $1.18

D.Portfolio value before the right offer $84,000

Portfolio value after the right offer $84,000

Explanation:

A.

The maximum possible subscription price based on the information given will be $42 per Shares

The minimum price will be anything that is greater or higher that $0

B. Calculation for how many shares must be sold

Using this formula

Number of new shares =Journal of Financial Excess amount /Subscription price per share

Let plug in the formula

Number of new shares=$17,000,000/ $34 per share

Number of new shares=$500,000

Calculation for how many rights will it take to buy one share

Using this formula

Numbers of right needed=Shares Outstanding/Number of new Shares

Let plug in the formula

Numbers of right needed=$2,900,000/$500,000

Numbers of right needed=5.8

C. Calculation for the ex-rights price

Using this formula

Ex-rights price=(Numbers of right needed*Maximum possible subscription price +Subscription price per share)/(Numbers of right needed+ One shares)

Let plug in the formula

Ex-rights price=(5.8*$42+$34)/(5.8+1)

Ex-rights price=$277.6/6.8

Ex-rights price=$40.82

Calculation for the value of a right

Using this formula

Value of a right =maximum possible subscription price-Ex-rights price

Let plug in the formula

Value of a right=$42-$40.82

Value of a right=$1.18

D. Calculation for What is his portfolio value before the right offer

Using this formula

Portfolio value before the right offer= Shareholders Shares *Maximum possible subscription price

Let plug in the formula

Portfolio value before the right offer=2,000*42

Portfolio value before the right offer=$84,000

Calculation for What is his portfolio value after the right offer

Using this formula

Portfolio value after the right offer=(Shareholders Shares*Ex-rights price) +(Shareholders Shares*Value of a right)

Let plug in the formula

Portfolio value after the right offer=(2,000*40.82)+(2,000*1.18)

Portfolio value after the right offer=$81,640+$2,360

Portfolio value after the right offer=$84,000

A sole proprietor owned an office building with a cost of $300,000 and accumulated depreciation of $40,000, using modified accelerated cost recovery system (MACRS) straight-line depreciation. In the current year, she sold the building for $320,000. What is the unrecaptured Section 1250 gain from this sale, if any

Answers

Answer:

The Correct Answer:

$40,000

Explanation:

IRC Section 1250 requires that excess depreciation (actual depreciation in excess of straight-line depreciation) be recaptured as ordinary income. Since the property has sold for more than the adjusted basis ($300,000 − $40,000 = $260,000 adjusted basis), the initial gains are recaptured based on the original purchase price of $300,000.

This makes the first $40,000 of the profit subject to the unrecaptured Section 1250 gain while the remaining $20,000 is considered regular long-term capital gains.

Price of bond= $75,075.58  

Explanation:

The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).  

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV  

The value of the bond for Akers Company  can be worked out as follows:  

Step 1  

PV of interest payments  

Semi annul interest payment  

= 6% × 100,000 × 1/2 = 3000

Semi-annual yield = 10%/2 =  5% per six months  

Total period to maturity (in months)  

= (2 × 10) = 20 periods

PV of interest =  

3000  × (1- (1+0.05)^( -20)/) 0.05 =  37,386.63

All-Mart Discount Stores Corporation contracts to buy ten acres from Suburban Enterprises, Inc., as a site for a new store. The contract calls for a "warranty deed." According to a survey that All-Mart commissions, one corner of an adjacent, enclosed parking lot is on part of the property that Suburban is attempting to convey. Can All-Mart avoid the contract? If so, on what basis? If not, why not?

Answers

Answer:

All-Mart can avoid the contract since it didn't meet their specification for the siting of their new store which they planned for. The warranty deed which they called for was to ensure that, all land purchased has guarantee that it would not become an issue for them in the future.

Since one part is an enclosed parking lot which is a public property that Suburban is trying to sell to them, the best would be to avoid it.

Explanation:

MicroTech Corporation maintains a capital structure of 40 percent debt and 60 percent common equity. To finance its capital budget for next year, the firm will sell 11% coupon bonds at par value (assume no flotation costs). The firm will finance the rest of its capital expenditures with retained earnings. MicroTech expects next year's dividend to be $1.30 per share. Dividends are expected to grow at 7% per year for the foreseeable future. The current market value of MicroTech's common stock is $30 per share. If the firm has a corporate tax rate of 21%, what is its weighted cost of capital for next year?

Answers

Answer:

weighted cost of capital for next year is 10.27 %.

Explanation:

Weighted cost of capital = Ke × (E/V) + Kd × (D/V)

Ke = Cost of Equity

    = Dividend Yield + Expected growth rate

    = $1.30 / $30.00 + 0.07

    = 0.11333 or 11.33 %

Kd = Cost of Debt

     = Interest × (1 - tax rate)

     = 11% × ( 1 - 0.21)

     = 8.69 %

Weighted cost of capital =  11.33 % × 60% + 8.69 % × 40%

                                         = 10.27 %

Masterson, Inc., has 3.6 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current share price is $85.50, and the book value per share is $9.25. The company also has two bond issues outstanding. The first bond issue has a face value of $73 million, a coupon rate of 5.3 percent, and sells for 95.7 percent of par. The second issue has a face value of $45 million, a coupon rate of 5.9 percent, and sells for 104.9 percent of par. The first issue matures in 23 years, the second in 11 years. The most recent dividend was $4.04 and the dividend growth rate is 4.3 percent. Assume that the overall cost of debt is the weighted average of that implied by the two outstanding debt issues. Both bonds make semiannual payments. The tax rate is 23 percent.

5. What is the company's WACC?

Answers

Answer:

1. 9.03 %

2. 7.56 %

3. 72.45 %

4. 27.55 %

5. 8.63 %

Explanation:

Cost of equity is the return that is required by holders of Common Stocks

Cost of equity = Recent year`s dividend / Current Market Price + Expected Growth Rate

                       = $4.04 / $85.50 + 0.043

                       = 0.0903 or 9.03 %

1st bond issue

PV = $69,861,000

Pmt = ($73,000,000 × 5.30%) ÷ 2 = - $1,934,500

p/y = 2

n  = 23 × 2 = 46

Fv = 0

i = ?

Cost of the 1st Bond Issue, i is : 2.1571 %

After tax cost = 2.1571 % × 77 %

                      = 1.66%

2nd Bond Issue

PV = $47,205,000

Pmt = ($45,000,000 × 5.90%) ÷ 2 = - $1,327,500

p/y = 2

n  = 11 × 2 = 22

Fv = 0

i = ?

Cost of the 2nd Bond Issue, i is : 7,6681 %

After tax cost = 7,6681 % × 77 %

                      = 5.90%

Total Cost of Debt = 1.66% + 5.90%

                               = 7.56 %

Market Values :

Market Value of Equity = 3,600,000 shares × $85.50

                                      = $307,800,000

Market Value of Bonds

1st Issues  =  $69,861,000

2nd Issue  = $47,205,000

Total          = $117,066,000

Weight of equity = Market Value of Equity ÷ Total Market Value

                            = $307,800,000 ÷ ($307,800,000 + $117,066,000)

                            = 72.45 %

Weight of debt    = Market Value of Bonds ÷ Total Market Value

                            = $117,066,000 ÷ ($307,800,000 + $117,066,000)

                            = 27.55 %

WACC = Weighted Cost of Debt + Weighted Cost of Equity

           = 27.55 % × 7.56 % + 72.45 % ×  9.03 %

           = 8.63 %

The HIJ bond has a current price of $800, a maturity value of $1,000, and matures in 5 years. If interest is paid semi-annually and the bond is priced to yield 8%, what is the bond's annual coupon rate

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The coupon rate is defined as the interest rate paid on a bond by its issuer for the term of the security.

Hence,

Par Value = $800

Face Value = $1,000

N = 5 x 2 = 10

Since the interest is semi annual

i = 8% / 2 = 4%

CF = $15.34

Coupon = $30.68 per year or 3.068%

An exchange-rate policy in which the government usually allows the exchange rate to be set by the market, but sometimes intervenes is called a __________________ exchange rate system.

Answers

Answer: Managed Float

Explanation:

Also called "Dirty Float", the Managed float is an exchange rate system that allows for the currency of a country to be set by the forces of demand and supply in the market.

However, unlike in a clean float,  the Central bank will occasionally intervene in the market to influence the how fast the currency is changing value or to control the direction it is going.

This is usually done to protect the domestic economy from sudden shocks in the global economy.

In Macroland autonomous consumption equals 100, the marginal propensity to consume equals 0.75, net taxes are fixed at 40, planned investment is fixed at 50, government purchases are fixed at 150, and net exports are fixed at 20. Planned aggregate expenditure equals:________a.1,000. b.1,160. c.1,280. d.1,440.

Answers

Answer:

b) $1,160

Explanation:

From the above information,

I=Investment = 50

G=Government expenditure = 150

X=Net export = 20

a=autonomous consumption = 100

b=Marginal propensity to consume = 0.75

Y=Equilibrium GDP

C = consumption ;

C = 100 + 0.75Y (Y income - 40 taxes)

Planned aggregate expenditure (PAE)

PAE = C + l +G +X

Substituting for C in the above equation,

PAE = 100 + 0.75 (Y - 40) + 50 + 150+ 20

= 100 + 0.75Y -30 + 50 + 150 + 20

= 290 + 0.75Y

Since short run exists when Y = PAE

Therefore,

Y = 290 + 0.75Y

Collect like terms

Y - 0.75Y = 290

0.25Y =290

Y = 290/0.25

Y = 1,160

Answer:

Busch Company

Indication of whether the obligation be classified as a current liability, long-term liability, or both:

(a) A note payable for $100,000 due in 2 years. Long-term Liability

(b) A 10-year mortgage payable of $200,000 payable in ten $20,000 annual payments.   Both.

Every year, $20,000 would be classified as Current Liability while the remaining balance is long-term liabilities.

(c) Interest payable of $15,000 on the mortgage. Both

If the interest payable is to be settled at the end of the mortgage, then it is classified as only long-term.

(d) Accounts payable of $60,000. Current Liability

Explanation:

Busch's current liabilities are financial obligations that are due for settlement within the next accounting period of 12 months or less.

The long-term liabilities of Busch Company are those financial obligations that are not due for settlement within the next accounting period.

For some long-term liabilities, Busch may settle some part within 12 months.  That part that can be settled within the accounting period are classified as current while the other parts are non-current.
