If the price of steel, an input into the production of automobiles, rises, and at the same time the price of gasoline rises, what will happen to the equilibrium price and quantity of automobiles

Answers

Answer:

a decrease in equilibrium quantity

an indeterminate effect on equilibrium price.

Explanation:

An increase in the price of steel would raise the production cost of cars. as a result the supply curve would shift inwards or to the left. price would rise and quantity would fall.

A rise in the price of gasoline would increase the cost of fuelling one's car. As a result the demand for cars would fall. the demand curve would shift inward. Quantity and price would fall.

Taking these two effects together, there would be a decrease in equilibrium quantity but an indeterminate effect on equilibrium price.

TB MC Qu. 6-63 Creswell Corporation's fixed monthly expenses ... Creswell Corporation's fixed monthly expenses are $23,000 and its contribution margin ratio is 63%. Assuming that the fixed monthly expenses do not change, what is the best estimate of the company's net operating income in a month when sales are $78,000

Answers

Answer:

Net operating income= $26,140

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs= $23,000

The contribution margin ratio is 63%.

Sales=  $78,000

First, we need to calculate the contribution margin:

Contribution margin= contribution margin ratio*sales

Contribution margin= 0.63*78,000

Contribution margin= 49,140

Net operating income= 49,140 - 23,000= $26,140

Fed is open to changing bond policy Fed policymakers signaled for the first time that they could increase or decrease stimulation of the economy in the​ future, but not now. ​Source: Los Angeles Times​, May​ 1, 2013 What are the ripple effects and time lags that the Fed must consider in deciding when to increase or decrease stimulation of the​ economy?

Answers

Answer:

When the Fed raises the federal funds rate, the inflation rate decreases about two years later.

Explanation:

When trying to stimulate the economy either by increasing or decreasing, policymakers have to take into consideration how it would effect interest rate, amount of money available in the economy, loans that would be acquired by banks and the behavior of interest rate.

Interest rate can be impacted quickly even though the period of time it would take for such action to have a reflection on what quantity of money is available in the economy. Then also a period of 2 years would be taken for this action to take effect on inflation.

Therefore

When the Fed raises the federal funds rate, the inflation rate decreases about two years later.

g Sheffield Corp. purchased a truck at the beginning of 2017 for $109200. The truck is estimated to have a salvage value of $3800 and a useful life of 131750 miles. It was driven 23000 miles in 2017 and 31000 miles in 2018. What is the depreciation expense for 2018

Answers

Answer:

$24,800

Explanation:

Calculation for the depreciation expense for 2018 for Sheffield Corp.

Using this formula

Depreciation expense = (Purchased at the beginning-Salvage value/Useful life)* Driven miles

Let plug in the formula

Depreciation expense=($109,200-$3,800/131,750)*31,000

Depreciation expense=($105,400/131,750)*31,000

Depreciation expense=0.80*31,000

Depreciation expense=$24,800

Therefore the depreciation expense for 2018 will be $24,800

Pioneer Venture Capital firm recently offered a biotech company $50 million funding in exchange for 25% of the biotech company's ownership. What is the company's implied post-money valuation

Answers

Answer:

The company's implied post-money valuation is $200 million.

Explanation:

Post-money valuation is a technique that is employed to determine the value of a firm after making an investment in the company.

The calculation of the implied post-money valuation is done by dividing the investment amount offered by the percentage of ownership the investor is getting in exchange. This can be expressed as follows:

Implied post money valuation = Investment amount offered / Ownership percentage ............................ (1)

Since from the question, we have:

Investment amount offered = $50,000,000

Ownership percentage = 25%

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

Implied post money valuation = $50,000,000 / 25% = $200,000,000

Therefore, the company's implied post-money valuation is $200 million.

Harris Co. is considering a 12-year project that is estimated to cost $900,000 and has no residual value. Harris seeks to earn an average rate of return of 15% on all capital projects. Determine the necessary average annual income (using straight-line depreciation) that must be achieved on this project for it to be acceptable to Harris Co.

Answers

Answer:

annual income = $70,292.52

Explanation:

initial outlay $900,000

in order to determine the net cash flows per year we can use the present value of an ordinary annuity:

PV = annual cash flow x annuity factor

PV = $900,000 annuity factor, 15%, 12 years = 6.1944

annual cash flow = $900,000 / 6.1944 = $145,292.52

annual cash flow = [(revenue - operating costs - depreciation) x (1 - tax rate)] + depreciation

revenue - operating costs - depreciation = annual incometax rate = 0?depreciation = $900,000 / 12 = $75,000

$145,292.52 = annual income + $75,000

annual income = $145,292.52 - $75,000 = $70,292.52

How would you make a convincing case that open trade in goods and services as well as free flow of foreign direct investment will enhance the well-being of (a) consumers, (b) pro-ducers, and (c) the government of countries? Give specific examples to prove your position.

Answers

Answer:

(a) consumers

Consumers are those who benefit the most from open trade and foreign direct investment. This is because these two economic policies increase the producion and delivery of goods and services, making them cheaper.

(b) producers

While some producers would be affected by open trade, most producers would benefit. Firms are allowed to specialize in producing those goods and services for which they have a competitive advantage, and they can also profit from increased foreign investment.

(c) the government of countries

Governments also benefit from these economic policies. They higher well-being of society means more government credibility, and the higher economic growth means more government revenue in the form of taxes.

The case that open trade in goods and services, as well as free flow of foreign direct investment, should be described below:

On July 1, Shady Creek Resort borrowed $250,000 cash by signing a 10-year, 8% installment note requiring equal payments each June 30 of $37,258. What amount of interest expense will be included in the first annual payment

Answers

Answer:

Interest expense = $20,000

Explanation:

Loan Amortization: A loan repayment method structured such that a series of equal periodic installments will be paid for certain number of periods to offset both the loan principal amount and the accrued interest.  

The annual installment is computed as follows:  

Annual installment= Loan amount/annuity factor  

Annual installment is already given as = 37,258 (already given)

Interest payment = interest rate × Loan balance at the beginning of the year

DATA

Interest rate = 8%

Loan balance at the beginning of the year = $250,000

Interest expense = 8%× 250,000 = $20000

Principal paid = Annual installment - Interest = 37,258-20,000 = 17,258 (this  is not required but to explain the concept)

Interest expense = $20,000

Answers

Answer:

The seller must be informed when the offer is presented that the depositis a promissory note

Explanation:

A good faith deposit is one that is done by a buyer in which conditions are stated that could result in the loss of deposit by the buyer.

It is a deposit made by the buyer to show he intends to complete the payment later.

In this instance if there is a Goodwill deposit in form of a promissory note, the broker needs to be aware.

So that when he is bringing in a client he will consider the already existing deposit.

Deals that offer more deposit or full payment will be considered and the original buyer discarded.

The risk-free rate is 5% and the tangency portfolio has 20% expected return and 40% return standard deviation. A risk-loving investor has $1000 of wealth and she seeks to attain 27.5% expected return. How much money does she need to borrow from the bank? A. 250 B. 500 C. 1500 D. 1000

Answers

Answer:

B. 500

Explanation:

Portfolio return =  Weighted average return

Let the amount invested in portfolio is x and amount invested in risk free = 1000 - x

27.5% = 20%*x + 5%*(1000-x)

27.5% * 1,000 = 20%x + 50 – 5%x

0.275 * 1,000 = 15%x + 50

275 - 50 = 15%x

225 = 15%x

x = 225 / 0.15

x  =  $1,500

Hence, the amount of money borrowed = $1,500 - $1000

= $500

Answers

Answer:

$36,000

Explanation:

Calculation for the amount to be paid to the bondholders for each semiannual interest payment

Using this formula

Semiannual interest payment = Face value Amount*Interest Rate*Time

Let plug in the formula

Semiannual interest payment = $720,000*0.10*0.50

Semiannual interest payment = $36,000

The amount paid to the bondholders for each semiannual interest payment is $36,000

Data pertaining to a company's joint production for the current period follows
Quantities produced 310 lbs. 260 lbs
Market value at split-off point . $10.2/lb. $20.4/lb
Compute the cost to be allocated to Product L for this period's $792 of joint costs if the value basis is used. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
a. $295.81.
b. $49619.
c. $39600.
d. $2,926.00.
e. $962.19.

Answers

Answer: a. $295.81.

Explanation:

Using the value basis would mean that the product's share of the total market value will be used to determine it's share of the cost.

Total Market Value = Product L Market Value + Product M Market Value

= (310 lbs * 10.2) + ( 260 lbs * 20.4)

= ‭3,162‬ + ‭5,304‬

= $‭8,466‬

Product L's share of total market value

= 3,162/8,466

Product L's share of the $792 based on share of total market value

= (3,162/8,466) * 792

= $295.8072

= $295.81

he beginning share price for a security over a three-year period was $50. Subsequent year-end prices were $62, $58 and $64. The arithmetic average annual rate of return and the geometric average annual rate of return for this stock were:

Answers

Answer:

Arithmetic average rate of return = 9.30%

geometric average annual rate of return = 8.58%

Explanation:

share price at the beginning = $50

time = 3 year

price at the end of year 1 =  $62

price at the end of year 2 = $58

price at the end of year 3 =  $64

Annual rate of return in year 1 = ($62 / $50 - 1) x 100 = 24%

Annual rate of return in year 2 = ($58 / $62 - 1) x 100 = -6.45%

Annual rate of return in year 3 = \($64 / $58 - 1) x 100  = 10.34%

Arithmetic average rate of return = sum of annual rate of return / 3

Arithmetic average rate of return =  (24% + -6.45% + 10.34%) / 3

Arithmetic average rate of return = 9.30%

geometric average annual rate of return = { (1 + r1) x (1 + r2) x (1 + r3) }^1/3 - 1

= (1.24) x (0.9355) x (1.1034)^1/3 - 1  =  8.58%

Wilson Dover Inc. The total value (debt plus equity) of Wilson Dover Inc. is $500 million and the face value of its 1-year coupon debt is $200 million. The volatility (σ) of Wilson Dover's total value is 0.60, and the risk-free rate is 5%. Assume that N(d1) = 0.9720 and N(d2) = 0.9050. Refer to the data for Wilson Dover Inc. What is the yield on Wilson Dover's debt? a. 7.05% b. 6.04% c. 6.70% d. 7.42% e. 6.36%

Answers

Answer:

7.42%

Explanation:

Value = 500 million

Amount of debt = 200 million

Time = year

Volatility = 6%

Risk free rate = 0.05

Nd1 = 0.9720

Nd2 = 0.9050

We have to calculate the value =

500 - (500 x 0.9720 - 200 x e^-0.05 x 0.9050)

= 186.17 million

We now calculate the yield

(200/186.17)^1 - 1

= 0.0742

= 7.42%
