Answer:
The answer is $862.35
Explanation:
Explanation:
This is a semiannual paying coupon, meaning interest are paid twice in year.
N(Number of periods) = 30periods ( 15 years x 2)
I/Y(Yield to maturity) = 6 percent
PV(present value or market price) = ?
PMT( coupon payment) = $50
FV( Future value or par value) = $1,000.
We are using a Financial calculator for this.
N= 30; I/Y = 6; PMT = 50; FV= $1,000; CPT PV= -862.35
Therefore, the market price of the bond is $862.35.

Answer:
b. the low opportunity cost producer.
Explanation:
Here are the options to this question :
a. the person with the lowest wage rate.
b. the low opportunity cost producer.
c. the person with the most advanced technical knowledge.
d. the person that can accomplish the task most rapidly.
a country has comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other countries.
For example, country A produces 10kg of beans and 5kg of rice. Country B produces 5kg of beans and 10kg of rice.
for country A,
opportunity cost of producing beans = 5/10 = 0.5
opportunity cost of producing rice = 10/5 = 2
for country B,
opportunity cost of producing rice = 5/10 = 0.5
opportunity cost of producing beans = 10/5 = 2
Country A has a comparative advantage in the production of beans and country B has a comparative advantage in the production of rice
Conner Manufacturing has two major divisions. Management wants to compare their relative performance. Information related to the two divisions is as follows:
Division 1:
Sales: $200,000
Expenses: $150,000
Asset investment: $950,000
Division 2:
Sales: $45,000
Expenses: $35,000
Asset investment: $200,000
Based on ROI, which division is more profitable?
a. Division 1
b. Both divisions have the same ROI ratio
c. Division 2
Answer:
The correct answer is:
Division 1 (a.)
Explanation:
Return on investment (ROI) is a financial ratio used to calculate the benefit earned on an investment cost.
Mathematically, it is represented as:
[tex]ROI = \frac{Net\ Income}{original\ cost\ of\ investment} \times 100[/tex]
where:
Net income = Sales - expenses
Original cost of investment = asset invested
Now let us calculate the ROI for each division:
Division 1 :
Net income = Sales - Expenses = 200,000 - 150,000 = $50,000
Asset investment = $950,000
[tex]ROI = \frac{50,000}{950,000} \times 100\ \\\\ROI = 5.26\%[/tex]
Division 2:
Net income = 45,000 - 35,000 = $10,000
Asset investment = $200,000
[tex]ROI = \frac{10,000}{200,000} \times 100\\\\= ROI = 0.05\ \times\ 100\ = 5\%[/tex]
Therefore, based on the ROI for both divisions, Division 1 has a greater ROI (5.26%) than Division 2 (5%) hence, Division 1 is more profitable.
Cole Co. began constructing a building for its own use in January 20X3. During 20X3, Cole incurred interest of $50,000 on specific construction debt, and $20,000 on other borrowings. Interest computed on the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures for the building during 20X3 was $40,000. What amount of interest cost should Cole capitalize
Answer: $40,000
Explanation:
When capitalizing Interest for a PPE, accounting procedure is that one looks at the actual interests incurred vs the interest computed on the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures for the PPE and then pick the lower of the two for capitalization.
The actual interest incurred is;
= 50,000 + 20,000
= $70,000
The Interest computed on the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures for the building during 20X3 = $40,000. This is the lower one and so will be the amount capitalized.
Rose Corporation, a calendar year corporation, had accumulated earnings and profits of $40,000 as of January 1, 2014. However, for the first six months of 2014 Rose Corporation had an operating loss of $36,000, and finished the year with a total net operating loss for tax year 2014 of $55,000. Rose Corporation distributed $15,000 to its shareholders on July 1, 2014. Which of the following is correct?A. The entire distribution of $15,000 is taxable as a dividend.B. The entire distribution is not taxable.C. The part of the distribution which is taxable as a dividend is $12,500.D. The part of the distribution which is taxable as a dividend is $14,000.
Answer:
C. The part of the distribution which is taxable as a dividend is $12,500.
Explanation:
Rose's total loss for the year = $55,000
we must prorate the loss: $55,000 / 12 months = $4,583.33 per month
loss allocated to the first 6 months = $4,583.33 x 6 = $27,500
retained earnings before the distribution = $40,000 - $27,500 = $12,500
since distributions must come from retained earnings to be considered dividends, then only $12,500 will be considered dividends. The remaining $2,500 will be considered a return of capital

One Step, Inc., is trying to determine its cost of debt. The firm has a debt issue outstanding with 27 years to maturity that is quoted at 105 percent of face value. The issue makes semiannual payments and has a coupon rate of 4 percent.
Requried:
a. What is the company's pretax cost of debt?
b. If the tax rate is 23 percent, what is the aftertax cost of debt?
Answer:
Before tax cost of debt=3.72%
After-tax cost of debt =2.87 %
Explanation:
The yield to maturity to Maturity van be worked out using the formula below:
YM =( C + F-P/n) ÷ ( 1/2× (F+P))
C- annual coupon,
F- face value ,
P- current price,
n- number of years to maturity
YM - Yield to maturity
DATA
C- 4%× 100 = 4, P- 105, F- 100
AYM = 4 + (100-105)/27 ÷ 1/2× (100+105)
=0.0372 × 100= 3.72%
Yield to maturity =3.72%
Before tax cost of debt = Yield to maturity
Before tax cost of debt=3.72%
After tax cost of debt =Before tax cost of debt × (1-T)
Before tax cost of debt = 3.72%
Tax rate = 23%
After-tax cost of debt = 3.72%× (1-0.23) =2.87 %
After-tax cost of debt =2.87 %

By appraisal, the fair value was estimated to be $826,355 for the land and $2,023,145 for the building. At what amount should Schwartzkopf report the land and the building at the end of the year?
Answer:
Cost allocated to land=$605,520
Cost allocated to building=$1,482,480
Explanation:
Calculation for the amount that Schwartzkopf should report the land and the building at the end of the year
A. Calculation for Cost allocated to land
Using this formula
Cost allocated to land=Fair value of land/
Fair value of building and land×Cost
Let plug in the formula
Cost allocated to land=$826,355/($2,023,145+$826,355)×$2,088,000
Cost allocated to land=$826,355/$2,849,500×$2,088,000
Cost allocated to land=0.29×$2,088,000
Cost allocated to land=$605,520
Therefore the Cost allocated to land will be $605,520
B. Calculation for Cost allocated to building
Using this formula
Cost allocated to building=Fair value of land/
Fair value of building and land×Cost
Let plug in the formula
Cost allocated to building=$2,023,145/$2,023,145+$826,355)×$2,088,000
Cost allocated to building=$2,023,145/$2,849,500×$2,088,000
Cost allocated to building=0.71×$2,088,000
Cost allocated to building=$1,482,480

Norris Co. has developed an improved version of its most popular product. To get this improvement to the market, will cost $48 million and will return an additional $13.5 million for 5 years in net cash flows. The firm's debt-equity ratio is .25, the cost of equity is 13 percent, the pretax cost of debt is 9 percent, and the tax rate is 30 percent. What is the net present value of this proposed project?
Answer:
NPV = $1.49 million
Explanation:
The NPV is the difference between the PV of cash inflows and the PV of cash outflows. A positive NPV implies a good investment decision and a negative figure implies the opposite.
NPV of an investment:
NPV = PV of Cash inflows - PV of cash outflow
But we will need to work out the discount rate to be used for discounting the cash flows. Hence, we need to determine the cost of capital as follows:
Step 1: After-tax cost of debt
After tax cost of debt = pre-tax cost of debt × (1-tax rate rate)
= 9%× (1--0.3)=6.3%
Step 2 : Weighted Average cost of capital (WACC)
WACC=( 0.25×6.3%) + (0.75× 13%) =11.325 %
Step 3:Net Present Value (NPV)
PV of cash inflow= (1- (1.11325^-5)/0.11325)× 13.5 = 49.49 million
Initial cost = $48 million
NPV = 49.49 million - $48 million =$1.49 million
NPV = $1.49 million
What is the beta for a company with a 12% expected return, while treasury bills are yielding 5% and the market risk premium is 7%
Answer:
The beta for the company is 1.
Explanation:
A beta is the measure of systematic risk associated to a stock or the portfolio. Systematic risk is the market risk that affects all the stocks in the market due to factors that are uncontrollable. Such a risk is what the companies compensate the investors for. Using the CAPM equation, we calculate the expected rate of return of a stock. The equation is,
r = rRF + Beta * rpM
Where,
rRF is the risk free raterpM is the risk premium on marketWe already have the values for r, rRF and rpM. Plugging them in the formula, we calculate the beta to be,
0.12 = 0.05 + Beta * 0.07
0.12 - 0.05 = Beta * 0.07
0.07/ 0.07 = Beta
Beta = 1
A company is considering expanding their production capabilities with a new machine that costs $38,000 and has a projected lifespan of 8 years . They estimate the increased production will provide a constant $5,000 per year of additional income . Money can earn 1.7% per year, compounded continuously . Should the company buy the machine
Answer:
the company should not buy the machine.
Explanation:
Given that:
cost of the new machine = $38000
lifespan = 8 years
constant income = 5,000
Interest = 1.7%
no of days = 365
The value of earning at the time of buying can be calculated as follows:
[tex]= \dfrac{5000}{(1+ \dfrac{1.7}{100})^8}+ \dfrac{5000}{(1+ \dfrac{1.7}{100})^7}+\dfrac{5000}{(1+ \dfrac{1.7}{100})^6}+...+ \dfrac{5000}{(1+ \dfrac{1.7}{100})^0}[/tex]
[tex]= 5000 \begin {pmatrix} \dfrac{1}{(1.017)^8}+ \dfrac{1}{(1.017)^8}+\dfrac{1}{(1.017)^6}+...+ 1} \end {pmatrix}[/tex]
Sum of a Geometric progression [tex]S=a \dfrac{(r^n -1)}{(r-1)}[/tex]
[tex]S=(\dfrac{1}{1.017})^8 \dfrac{((1.017)^9 -1)}{(1.017-1)}[/tex]
[tex]S= \dfrac{((1.017)^9 -1)}{ (1.017)^8(0.017)}[/tex]
S = 8.4211
The value of earning at the time of buying = (5000 × 8.4211)-$5000
The value of earning at the time of buying = $42105.5 -$5000
The value of earning at the time of buying = $37105.5
The Machine price = $38000
If the value - Machine price > 0, then the company should buy the machine
∴
= $ 37105.5 - $38000
= -$ 894.5
Since the value is negative which is less than zero, then the company should not buy the machine.
The company should not buy the machine since it earns a negative NPV of $894.25.
Data and Calculations:
Cost of machine in present value = $38,000
Projected lifespan = 8 years
Additional annual income = $5,000
Compound interest rate = 1.7%
Present value annuity factor for 1.7% for 8 years = 0.13475
Present value of annual income = $37,105.75 ($5,000/0.13475)
Net present value = -$894.25 ($38,000 - $37,105.75)

Compute the anticipated break-even sales (units).unitsb. Compute the sales (units) required to realize income from operations of $2,405,000.units
Answer:
a. 110,000 units
b. 128,500 units
Explanation:
a. Compute the anticipated break even sales in unit
Break even point in unit = Total fixed cost / Contribution margin
Total fixed cost = $14,300,000
Contribution margin per unit = Unit selling price - Unit variable cost
= $380 - $250
= $130
Break even point in units = $14,300,000 / $130
= 110,000 units
b. Compute sales (units) required to realize income from operations of $2,405,000
Break even point + expected profits = (total fixed costs + expected profits) / Contribution margin
° total fixed cost + expected profits
= $14,300,000 + $2,405,000
= $16,705,000
°contribution margin per unit
= $380 - $250
= $130
Break even point + expected profits in unit
= $16,705,000 / $130
= 128,500 units

c. Repurchased 100 shares of Nathan Corporation common stock, paying S20 per share. Each share has a $5 par value and was originally issued for $35.
d. Sold 20 shares of Nathan Corporation common stock for $22 each.
Required:
Calculate Nathan's retained earnings balance as of the end of 2011. How large of a dividend could Nathan have declared in 2011?
Answer:
1 & 2. $870,000
Explanation:
1. Retained Earnings is an equity account from which dividends are paid. The Net Income is added to this and the dividends are deducted from this.
Retained Earnings for the year = Beginning balance + Net Income - Dividends
= 800,000 + 130,000 - 60,000
= $870,000
2. Nathan Corporation could have declared the entire retained earnings of $870,000. This is however, not a recommended action because the Retained Earnings maintain a cushion for the company and as such contribute to financial health and structure of the company.

An 85-year old risk averse investor is not happy about the minimal return she is earning on her current investments. She is stressed about having enough income because her cost of living has been increasing by more than 10% annually. Her current portfolio composition consists of:
40% Money Market Fund
50% Bonds
10% Equities
What changes should you suggest to her portfolio?
A. Reduce the Money Market Fund allocation by 10% (to 30%) and put the released funds in commodities such as gold
B. Reduce the Money Market Fund allocation by 30% (to 10%) and put the released funds in AAA-rated corporate bonds
C. Liquidate the entire Money Market Fund allocation and put the released funds in Equities, bringing that allocation up to 50%
D. Liquidate the entire Money Market Fund allocation and put the released funds in U.S. Treasury securities
Answer:
B. Reduce the Money Market Fund allocation by 30% (to 10%) and put the released funds in AAA-rated corporate bonds
Explanation:
First of all, since the investor is risk averse and cannot afford to lose money on any risky investment, she should change the mix of her investment portfolio but without increasing risks. Corporate bonds that are AAA-rated carry a very low risk and pay a little higher than money market funds. So a small decrease in money market fund assets and an increase in AAA-rated bonds should yield a slightly higher return.
Investing in equities would be too risky and US Treasuries pay even less interests than money market funds.
An increase in taxes when the economy is above full employment ______ aggregate demand and real GDP, and the price level ______.
Question options :
A. increases; falls
B. decreases; falls
C. does not change; does not change
D. increases; rises
Answer:
B. decreases; falls
Explanation:
let us understand this by looking at the logic behind it. First when the economy is at full employment, there is high demand since there will be increase in money supply through increased circulation from salaries and wages. If government increases taxes, this will reduce purchasing power as money supply will be reduced and therefore demand will be reduced. Also price will fall since according to the Law of demand and supply, if demand is more than supply, price will increase
The wage rate for all units of labor is $10/hr. You have spent $160,000 on developing a production process (Process X) that will allow you to produce 8 units for every unit of labor. If you use this production process, the accounting profits will cover the initial investment within 6 months. If you use your normal production process (not Process X), you can produce 10 units for every unit of labor. Both processes are fully scalable, so the marginal product of labor is fixed for any reasonable amount of labor you could hire. Based on this information, what should you do?
Answer:
The normal production process should be followed.
Explanation:
The normal process should be used because when it uses the process “X” then the marginal productivity of labor (MPL) is 8 units and the wage of labor is $10 per hour. Secondly, when it uses a normal production process then the marginal productivity of labor is 10 units and the wage rate is the same that is $10 per hour. Therefore, the normal production process is giving the greater marginal productivity of labor, accordingly this process should be followed.

Required:
a. Calculate the gross profit ratio for each of the past three years.
b. Assume that Campbell's net sales for the first four months of 2015 totaled 527 billion. Calculate an estimated cost of goods sold and gross profit for the four months.
Answer:
gross profit ratio = (total revenue - cost of goods sold) / total revenue
I looked for the missing information:
year total sales cost of goods sold
2012 $7,175 $4,365
2013 $8,052 $5,140
2014 $8,268 $5,370
a)
gross profit ratio:
2012 = ($7,175 - $4,365) / $7,175 = 39.16%
2013 = ($8,052 - $5,140) / $8,052 = 36.16%
2014 = ($8,268 - $5,370) / $8,268 = 35.05%
b)
since the gross profit margin ratio is decreasing every year, we can assume that it will keep decreasing in 2015. Using linear regression, the slope is -0.02055. So the estimated gross profit margin ratio for 2015 = 34.33%
estimated cogs (first four months of 2015) = $527 billion x (1 - 34.33%) = $346.08 billion
estimated gross profit (first four months of 2015) = $527 billion x 34.33% = $180.92 billion

What is Oligopoly?A market structure known as an oligopoly has a limited number of enterprises, none of which can prevent the others from having a large impact. The market share of the major companies is calculated using the concentration ratio.
A market with a monopoly has only one producer, a duopoly has two businesses, and an oligopoly has three or more businesses. The maximum number of firms in an oligopoly is unknown, but it must be low enough so that each firm's actions have a significant impact on the others.
In the past, oligopolies have existed in the steel industry, the oil industry, the railroad industry, the tire industry, grocery store chains, and the wireless industry. An oligopoly can prevent new competitors from entering the market, stifle innovation, and raise prices, all of which are detrimental to consumers.

What is the approximate probability that your money will double in value in a single year? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) b. What about triple in value? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 6 decimal places, e.g., .161616.)
Answer: a. 2.44%
b. 0.001070%
Explanation:
Given: The returns from an asset are normally distributed with
[tex]\mu=\text{ 13.6 percent and }\sigma=\text{43.86 percent.}[/tex]
Let x be the percentage value of return.
a. Double in value in a single year i.e. 100% return.

Jason has a loan that requires a single payment of $6,000 at the end of 3 years. The loan's interest rate is 10%, compounded semiannually. How much did Jason borrow? (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)
Answer:
Jason borrowed $4,4,77.29
Explanation:
In order to calculate this, let we will use the formula for the future value on an invested amount, semiannually, yielding interest at a certain interest rate. This is done as follows:
[tex]FV\ =\ PV(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{(n\times t)}[/tex]
where:
FV = future value = $6,000 (loan repayment)
PV = present value = amount borrowed = ??
r = interest rate = 10% = 10/100 = 0.1
n = number of compounding periods per year = 2
t = time = 3 years
[tex]6,000\ =\ PV(1+\frac{0.1}{2} )^{(2\times 3)}\\6,000\ =\ PV(1+ 0.05)^{6}\\6,000\ =\ PV(1.05)^{6}\\6,000\ =\ PV (1.340096)\\diving\ both\ sides\ by\ 1.340096\\PV = \frac{6,000}{1.340096} \\PV = \$4,477.29[/tex]
Therefore, Jason borrowed $4,4,77.29
Venture Capital Corporation loans Wally $15,000 to start a new business.Wally does not pay,but Venture fails to sue within the time prescribed by the applicable statute of limitations.Wally's promise to pay the debt even though recovery is barred:_________
A) needs new consideration.
B) needs no consideration.
C) is unenforceable regardless of any consideration.
D) needs legally sufficient and adequate consideration.
Answer:
B) needs no consideration.
Explanation:
In this scenario, Wally's promise to pay the debt even though recovery is barred needs no consideration. This is mainly due to the fact that the Corporation failed to sue within the statute of limitation that was set. Meaning they can no longer sue Wally in order to recover the loan that was given to him. If they were to try and sue Wally now the lawsuit would just be dismissed with no consideration given.
