Answer: 8%
Explanation:
Reward to risk ratio = (Expected return - Risk free rate) / Beta
Expected return = Risk free rate + Beta * ( Market return - Risk free rate)
= 4.4% + 1.2 * (12.4% - 4.4%)
= 14%
Reward to risk ratio = (14% - 4.4%) / 1.2
= 8%
A perpetual bond with a par value of $1,000 and a coupon rate of 7.75% has a current market price of $900. What is its yield to maturity
a. 9.32%
b. 8.33%
c. 7.92%
d. 9.45%
e. 8.61%
Answer: e. 8.61%
Explanation:
This is a perpetual bond so the price is calculable by;
Price = Coupon / Yield to Maturity
Coupon = 7.75% * 1,000
= $77.50
900 = 77.50/ YTM
900 * YTM = 77.50
YTM = 77.50/900
= 8.61%
Compute the amount that a $42,000 investment today would accumulate at 11% (compound interest) by the end of 6 years.
Answer:
FV= $78,557.41
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Initial investment (PV)= $42,000
Interest rate (i)= 11% = 0.11
Number of periods= 6 years
To calculate the future value (FV), we need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 42,000* (1.11^6)
FV= $78,557.41
Brace Corporation uses direct labor-hours as the cost driver in its normal costing system. Brace budgeted that it would use 21,600 direct-labor hours during the year. At the end of the year, actual direct labor-hours for the year were 20,400 hours, the actual manufacturing overhead for the year was $506,920, and Brace had $20,440 of underapplied overhead. The budgeted manufacturing overhead must have been: Round to the nearest dollar.
Answer:
total estimated overhead costs for the period= $515,095.2
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the allocated overhead:
Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead
20,440 = 506,920 - allocated overhead
allocated overhead= $486,480
Now, we can determine the predetermined overhead rate:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
486,480= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate*20,400
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 486,480/20,400
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $23.847 per direct labor hour
Finally, the estimated overhead for the period:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
23.847= total estimated overhead costs for the period/21,600
total estimated overhead costs for the period= 21,600*23.847
total estimated overhead costs for the period= $515,095.2

Answer:
Hulkster's 2021 profit margin is:
17.1%.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
2021 2020
Accounts receivable $40,000 $36,000
Merchandise inventory $28,000 35,000
Net sales 190,000 186,000
Cost of goods sold 114,000 108,000
Total assets 425,000 405,000
Total shareholders' equity 240,000 225,000
Net income 32,500 28,000
Profit margin = net income/net sales * 100
= $32,500/$190,000 * 100
= 17.1%
b) The profit margin of 17.1% indicates that Hulkster Company has generated an income of 17.1 cents for each dollar of sales. It shows the company's income performance with relation to the net sales revenue. It is a ratio of the net income expressed as a percentage of the sales.
A company resells 400 shares of its own common stock for $20 per share. The company has acquired these shares two months before for $15 per share. The resale of this stock would be recorded with a:_______.
A) Debit to Common Stock for $8,000
B) Credit to Treasury Stock for $8,000
C) Credit to Additional Paid-In Capital for $2,000
D) Debit to Additional Paid-In Capital for $2,000
Answer:
C. Credit to additional paid-in capital for $2,000
Explanation:
Based on the information given we were told that 400 shares of own common stock was resell for $20 per share in which the shares was acquired two months before for $15 per share which means that the resale of this stock would be recorded with a: Credit to additional paid-in capital for $2,000
Calculated as:
Additional paid-in capital=(400 shares*$20 per share)-(400 shares*$15 per share)
Additional paid-in capital=$8,000-$6,000
Additional paid-in capital=$2,000
Suppose payments were made at the end of each month into an ordinary annuity earning interest at the rate of 4.5%/year compounded monthly. If the future value of the annuity after 11 years is $55,000, what was the size of each payment?
Answer:
The size of each payment was $322.78.
Explanation:
This can be calculated using the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity as follows:
FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (1)
Where,
FV = Future value of the amount after 11 years = $55,000
M = Monthly payment = ?
r = Monthly interest rate = 4.5% / 12 = 0.045 / 12 = 0.00375
n = number of months = 11 years * 12 = 132
Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for M, we have:
$55,000 = M * (((1 + 0.00375)^132 - 1) / 0.00375)
$55,000 = M * 170.394706737074
M = $55,000 / 170.394706737074
M = $322.779979808101
Rounding to 2 decimal places, we have:
M = $322.78
Therefore, the size of each payment was $322.78.
Biogenetics, Inc. plans to retain and reinvest all of their earnings for the next 30 years. Beginning in year 31, the firm will begin to pay a $30 per share dividend. The dividend will not subsequently change. Given a required return of 18%, what should the stock sell for today?
Answer:
the stock sell for today is $1.16
Explanation:
The calculation of the stock sell for today is as follows;
Value after year 31 is
= (D31 ÷ Required return)
= $30 ÷ 0.18
= $166.666667
Now the current value is
= Future dividend and value × Present value of discounting factor(rate%,time period)
= $30 ÷ 1.18^31 + $166.666667 ÷ 1.18^31
= $1.16
Hence, the stock sell for today is $1.16
We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come
And, the same is to be considered

The Bureau of Labor Statistics counts as employed people who work part-time, but would prefer to work full-time. Suppose the people who had part-time jobs, but wanted full-time jobs, were counted as unemployed. Explain how the unemployment rate and the labor force participation rate would change.
Answer:
The labor participation rate would not change because it counts the labor force as a percentage of the total adult population, and the labor force includes both the number of people employed and the number of people unemployed, so, even if those working part-time were counted as unemployed by the BLS, they would still be part of the Labor Force.
The labor participation rate formula is:
Labor Participation Rate = (Labor Force / Total Adult Population) x 100
The unemployment rate would indeed change, because it counts the number of unemployed as a percentage of the labor force. If those working part-time were counted as unemployed by the BLS, the number of people unemployed would obviously spike.
The formula is:
Unemployment Rate = (Number of Unemployed / Labor Force) x 100

Kim's Bridal Shoppe has 10,200 shares of common stock outstanding at a price of $36 per share. It also has 215 shares of preferred stock outstanding at a price of $87 per share. There are 520 bonds outstanding that have a coupon rate of 5.5 percent paid semiannually. The bonds mature in 17 years, have a face value of $1,000, and sell at 93 percent of par. What is the capital structure weight of the common stock?
Answer:
26.43 %
Explanation:
The Capital Structure is based on the Market Weight of the Sources of Finance as shown below :
Equity market value = Number of shares × price/share
Equity market value = 10,200 × $36
Equity market value = $367,200
Current debt value = Number of bonds × price/bond
Current debt value = 520 × (1930)
Current debt value = $1,003,600
Preferred stock value = Number of shares × price/share
Preferred stock value = 215 × $87
Preferred stock value = $18,705
Total capital = Common equity value + Debt value + Preferred stock value
Total capital = $367,200 + $1,003,600 + $18,705
Total capital = $1,389,505
Weight of Equity = Equity value / Total capital
Weight of Equity = $367,200 / $1,389,505
Weight of Equity = 26.43 %
If a trader buys an option at an implied volatility of 10%, and plans to delta hedge it, over the life of the option she hopes realized volatility will be:
Answer:
b. lower than 10%
Explanation:
Missing word "a. higher than 10%, b. lower than 10%, c. if its three month option then she hopes its 10/3, d. irrelevant where realized will be"
If a trader buys an option at an implied volatility of 10%, and plans to delta hedge it, over the life of the option she hopes realized volatility will be lower than 10%. When hedging implied volatility through delta hedging is done, it means that the trader is expecting that volatility will decline and it has taken the position on the the downside of the implied volatility as it is reflected by the delta hedging. Delta hedging is not about betting on the upside of implied volatility.

What is the (a) inventory turnover ratio, and (b) average days in inventory, for the fiscal year ended January 30, 2016?
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. inventory turnover ratio
This will be calculated as:
= Sales cost / Average inventory
= $67,596 / $9301.50
= 7.2672
= 7.27
(b) average days in inventory.
This will be calculated as:
= 365 days / Inventory turnover ratio
= 365 / 7.27
= 50.20
= 50 days
Note:
Average inventory = ($10,321 + $8,282) / 2 = $9301.50
How much money should be deposited today in an account that earns 3 %compounded semiannually so that it will accumulate to $ 13,000 in three years?

Tell me about a time when you made a mistake.. How did you find it and what did you do to correct it?
Answer:
When I first became an assistant manager of a sales branch, I tried to take on everything myself, from the day-to-day operations of the branch to making all of the big sales calls. I quickly learned that the best managers know how to delegate effectively so that work is done efficiently. Since then, I have won numerous awards for my management skills, and I believe a lot of this has to do with my ability to delegate effectively.

A manual press costs $16,000, and it will be scrapped after 10 years. Compute the depreciation and book value for the first two years using 100% bonus depreciation.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation and the book value for the first two years would be
Depreciation for Year 1
= 100% Bonus + regular depreciation
= $16,000 + $16,000 ÷ 10 years
= $17,600
And,
Book value year 1 is
= $16,000 - $1,600
= $14,400
Now
Depreciation for Year 2 is
= Regular depreciation
= $1,600
And,
Book value year 2 is
= $14,400 - $1,600
= $12,800

On January 1, 2016, Cobb Co. received, for the sale of a parcel of land, a ten-year note receivable having a face amount of $2,000,000 and a stated interest rate of 8% payable annually each December 31. The market rate of interest for this type of note is 10%. Present value factors are as follows: At 8% At 10% Present value of 1 for 10 periods 0.46319 0.38554 Present value of an ordinary annuity of 1 for 10 periods 6.71008 6.14457
Answer: $1,754,211
Explanation:
8% of $2,000,000 will be payable every year for 10 years;
= 2,000,000 * 8%
= $160,000
The amount received from selling the land is;
= Present value of interest payable annually + Present value of Note
= (160,000 * Present value interest factor of annuity, 10 years, 10%) + (2,000,000 * present value interest factor, 10 years, 10%)
= (160,000 * 6.14457) + (2,000,000 * 0.38554)
= $1,754,211

Forrester Company is considering buying new equipment that would increase monthly fixed costs from $120,000 to $140,000 and would decrease the current variable costs of $80 by $10 per unit. The selling price of $120 is not expected to change. Forrester's current break-even sales are $240,000 and current break-even units are 2,000. If Forrester purchases this new equipment, the revised break-even point in units would:
Answer:
Break-even point in units= 2,800
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Fixed csots= $140,000
Unitary variable cost= 80 - 10= $70
Selling price per unit= $120
To calculate the new break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 140,000 / (120 - 70)
Break-even point in units= 2,800
Heridan Company is considering the following alternatives: Alternative AAlternative B Revenues$64000$72000 Variable costs 38400 38400 Fixed costs 10000 16000 What is the incremental profit?
Answer:
$2,000
Explanation:
To get the incremental profit, we would compute the profit for each alternatives and then subtract .
Alternative A
Incremental profit
= Revenues + Variable costs - Fixed costs
= $64,000 + $38,400 - $10,000
= $92,400
Alternative B
Incremental profit
= Revenues + Variable costs - Fixed costs
= $72,000 + $38,400 - $16,000
= $94,400
Incremental profit = Alternative B - Alternative A
Incremental profit = $94,400 - $92,400
Incremental profit = $2,000
Explain the actions the FED should take if it wanted to move from a point on the short-run Phillips curve representing high unemployment and low inflation to a point representing lower unemployment and higher inflation.
Answer:
The short run Phillips curve states that there is an inverse relationship between unemployment and inflation in the short run.
Since unemployment is high and the inflation rate is low, in order for the FED to decrease unemployment and increase inflation it must decrease the interest rate. That way, the economy should kick off and start growing which should decrease unemployment and at the same time will increase inflation.
A monopolist can sell 15 toys per day for $12.50 each. To sell 16 toys per day, the price must be cut to $12.20. The marginal revenue of the 16th toy is:_________.A. $12.20.B. $-0.30.C. $7.70 .D. $16.
Answer:
A monopolist can sell 15 toys per day for $12.50 each. To sell 16 toys per day, the price must be cut to $12.20. The marginal revenue of the 16th toy is:_________.
A. $12.20.
Explanation:
For this monopolist, the marginal revenue is the incremental revenue which it generates from each additional unit of sales. It can also be expressed as the rate at which total revenue changes from what it was before now. In this case, the additional revenue that the monopolist will get from selling one additional unit is $12.20. It is the additional revenue that the monopolist gets for the 16th item.
Asset C3PO has a depreciable base of $16.5 million and a service life of 10 years. What would the accumulated depreciation be at the end of year five under the sum-of-the-years'-digits method?
A. $ 4.5 million.
B. $8.25 million.
C. $ 12 million.
D. None of these is correct.
Answer:
C. $12 million.
