An asset has an average return of 5 percent and a standard deviation of 10 percent. Which of the following statements is true?
a. its variance is 25,
b. its coefficient of variation is 2.0
c. if returns are normally distributed, 95 percent of the time its returns will fall between -5 percent and 15 percent
d. if returns are normally distributed, 99 percent of the time its returns will fall between -15 percent and 25 percent.

Answer: 18%

Explanation:

The expected return on the common stock after refinancing will be calculated thus:

Let's assume that common stock is 1000. Therefore, return will be:

= 15% × 1000 = 150

Since 25% of the common stock is repurchased, this will be:

= 25% × 1000 = 250

Then, this 250 is financed by debt at 6%, and this will be:

= 6% × 250 = 15

Then, the new return will be:

= 150 - 15 = 135

Expected Return will now be:

= 135/(1000 - 250)

= 135/750

= 18%

Answer:

53.98

Explanation:

current share price is the present value of dividends

Year 1 = 2.35 x 1.22 = 2.867

Year 2 = 2.867 x 1.22 = 3.50

Year 3 = 3.50 x 1.22 = 4.27

+ 4.27 x 1.05 / (0.12 - 0.05) = 64

I - 12%

PV = 53.98

To find the PV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.  

3. Press compute

Answer:

Fund amount is being reduced.

Fund is being eliminated.

Explanation:

For example, when you are recording the expenses paid using the petty cash fund, you debit the expenses and credit the petty cash fund account.

Answer:

Shortage = 182 units

Explanation:

Given:

Quantity demanded = 385

Quantity supplied = 203

Find:

Shortage

Computation:

In economic terms, a shortage occurs when the amount sought exceeds the quantity available at the market price.

Shortage is difference between Quantity demanded and Quantity supplied.

Shortage = Quantity demanded - Quantity supplied

Shortage = 385 - 203

Shortage = 182 units

Answer:

$2,167,228

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the value of the levered firm

First step is calculate Unlevered firm value using this formula

Unlevered firm value = EBIT(1 - Tax) / Cost of equity

Let plug in the formula

Unlevered firm value = $344,000(1 - 0.34) / 0.124

Unlevered firm value = $344,000(0.66)/0.124

Unlevered firm value = $1,830,968

Now let calculate the Levered firm value using this formula

Levered firm value = Unlevered firm value + (Debt * Tax rate)

Let plug in the formula

Levered firm value = $1,830,968 + ($989,000 * 0.34)

Levered firm value = $1,830,968+$336,260

Levered firm value = $2,167,228

Therefore the value of the levered firm is $2,167,228

Answer:

LIFO is a form of inventory costing that assumes that more recent stock is sold first and early stock sold last. FIFO is the opposite of this and believes earlier stock is sold first and later stock is sold last.

Weighted average uses a weighted price for all available stock and specific identification uses the exact cost of the inventory.

a. Results in the highest cost of goods sold. ⇒ LIFO

This is LIFO because the closing stock that is subtracted from the cost of goods sold will be earlier stock and as costs are rising, it will be lower than the purchases.

b. Yields the highest net income. ⇒ FIFO

Because FIFO gives a lower Cost of goods sold as opposed to LIFO, it gives a higher income.

c. Has the lowest tax expense because of reporting the lowest net income.⇒ LIFO

Reports lowest income due to high cost of goods sold.

d. Better matches current costs with revenues. ⇒ LIFO

LIFO uses the current inventory which would reflect the current cost of inventory so it matches current costs with revenue.

e. Precisely matches the costs of items with the revenues they generate. ⇒ Specific Identification.

Uses the exact cost of the inventory so precisely matches costs.

Answer:

PV= $40,835.6

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Quarterly withdrawal (A)= $2,700

Number of periods= 4*4= 16 quarters

Interest rate= 0.67% per quarter

To calculate the initial investment, we need to use the following formula:

PV= A*{(1/i) - 1/[i*(1 + i)^n]}

PV= 2,700*{(1/0.0067) - 1 / [0.0067*(1.0067)^16]

PV= $40,835.6

Solution :

1. calculate the activity rate per grooming order

Activity rate                                                            Amount paid to agent    

                                                                             Number of grooming order

                                                                                         28,000          

                                                                                          4,000

Therefore, the activity rate  = 7 per grooming order

2. Calculating, in terms of grooming order, the :

a. Total activity availability

   Number of grooming orders  (A)                         =    4,000

   Number of agents (B)                                                        5  

  Total activity availability (A x B)                               20,000

b). Total activity availability                                     20,000

Less: Orders actually processed                           (17,800)            

Unused capacity                                                     2,200

3. calculating the dollar cost of :

a). Amount paid to the agent (A                       28,000

Number of agents (B)                                                5    

Total activity availability in dollars (AxB)        140,000

b). Unused capacity (A)                                       2,200

Activity rate (B)                                                           7

Ending inventory = 24,140 (279,740 - 255,600)

FIFO:

Cost of goods sold

= Cost of goods available for sale - Ending inventory

= $803,975.60 ($887,500 - $83,524.40)

Ending Inventory:

= $83,524.40 (24,140 * $3.46)
