Current cost to source from the home plant to Country A is $0.55 per unit, plus $0.02 in shipping (there is no tariff). If product is sourced from Country B, manufacturing cost is expected to be 20% lower; but shipping will increase to $0.06, and there is a tariff of 15% on CIF. What will the savings be on 100 million units if sourcing for Country A switches from the home plant to Country B

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Cost savings in sourcing from Country A = $0.5 million ($57.5 - $57 million)

Explanation:

Sourcing from Country A:

Purchase price = $0.55 per unit

Shipping = $0.02

Total Cost = $0.57

Cost of 100 million units = $57 million

Sourcing from Country B:

Purchasing price = $0.44 ($0.55 x 80%)

Shipping = $0.06

CIF Tariff = 15% = $0.075  ($0.5 x 15%)

Total Cost = $0.575

Cost of 100 million units = $57.5 million

Sourcing from Country A is more beneficial than sourcing from Country B with reduced product cost, but increased shipping and additional tariff.  Whereas Country A gives a total cost for 100 million units of $57 million, sourcing the same units from Country B gives a total cost of $57.5 million.  The savings of $0.5 million is substantial that no company would like to lose unless the goods from Country B are of higher quality than those from Country A.

Calculate gross profit ratio and cost of goods sold Refer to the consolidated statements of earnings in the Campbell Soup Company annual report in the appendix.
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.

Answers

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

C. Holders of convertible bonds can choose when to convert to stock.
D. Holders of convertible bonds have the option to not convert and continue receiving bond interest payments and par value at maturity.
E. Holders of convertible bonds can choose how many shares of stock to receive at conversion.

Answers

Answer: Holders of convertible bonds can choose how many shares of stock to receive at conversion

Explanation:

A convertible bond is a debt security that yields the payment of interest, but can also be converted into equity shares or common stock that are predetermined.

The option that holders of convertible bonds can choose how many shares of stock to receive at conversion is wrong. This is because the number I shares that will be eventually converted will already have been fixed.

Since the 1980s and 1990s, segmentation in global financial markets has been reduced. As a result of this, the correlation among securities markets has increased, thereby reducing, but not eliminating, the benefits of international portfolio diversification. True or Worse

Answers

Answer: True

Explanation:

With the on-going drive towards Globalization, companies took advantage to raise more capital by listing across various stock exchanges in the world. The result of this became that the securities market became more correlated.

This had the advantage of granting many companies enough capital that they became Multinational companies but it had the disadvantage of reducing the benefits of international portfolio diversification because the companies would be able to influence the movement of stock across the nations that they are listed in. Where before you could trade in Japan if there were losses in the NYSE, with a company being on both and suffering, both exchanges would feel it.

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

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:

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

Answers

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.

Answers

Answer: measuring the services in terms of current market prices

Explanation:

Based on the information that has been provided in the question, it should be noted that the monetary value of a homemaker's time can be estimated by

comparing the value of the services to the spouse's wage rate, measuring the marginal value of the services by the homemaker's wage rate received in a part-time job and also measuring the value of the services by looking at the homemaker's opportunity costs.

Therefore, the option that measuring the services in terms of current market prices is not estimated.

Break-Even Sales and Sales to Realize Income from OperationsFor the current year ended October 31, Friedman Company expects fixed costs of $14,300,000, a unit variable cost of $250, and a unit selling price of $380.a. Compute the anticipated break-even sales (units).unitsb. Compute the sales (units) required to realize income from operations of $2,405,000.units

Answers

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

Answers

Answer:

1 ABC Jan 100 Call

Explanation:

Although the OCC does not usually adjust the strike price of listed options for regular quarterly cash dividends. This is because they are known quantity that are segmented by the market into options premium.

For special cash dividends, they are not a frequent event hence market does not recognize them. This special cash dividend is $10 per share × 100 shares = $1,000 value per contract. It therefore means that the $1,000 value per contract will be adjusted.

The new strike price will be

= 110 - 10 cash dividend

= 100. It also means that the number of shares covered by the contract does not change.

Rose Corporation, a calendar year corporation, had accumulated earnings and profits of $40,000 as of January 1, 2014.

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.

Answers

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

The firm is an all-equity firm with assets worth $350 million and 100 million shares outstanding. It plans to borrow $100 million and use these funds to repurchase shares. The firm’s marginal corporate tax is 21%, and it plans to keep its outstanding debt equal to $100 million permanently. If the firm manages to repurchase shares at $4 per share, what is the per share value of equity for the leveraged firm? A) $2.71 per share B) $3.5 per share C) $3.61 per share D) $3.71 per share E) $4 per share

Answers

Answer:

B) $3.5 per share

Explanation:

Assets = Existing assets + Tax shield

= $350 million + 21% * $100 million

= $371 million

Equity = Asset - Debt

= $371 million - $100 million

= $271 million

The Shares are repurchase at $4

At this price, the firm would have 100 - 100/4 = 75 million shares outstanding .

Worth of shares outstanding = Equity / Outstanding shares  

Worth of shares outstanding = ($271 million / 75 million shares)

Worth of shares outstanding = $3.61 per shares

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%

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%

Answers

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 market

We 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

Steady​ Company's stock has a beta of . If the​ risk-free rate is and the market risk premium is ​, what is an estimate of Steady​ Company's cost of​ equity?

Answers

The question is incomplete as it misses the figures. The following is the complete question.

Steady Company's stock has a beta of 0.21. If the risk-free rate is 6.2% and the market risk premium is 6.9%, what is an estimate of Steady Company's cost of equity?

Answer:

The cost of equity is 0.07649 or 7.649%

Explanation:

The required rate of return or cost of equity capital is the rate required by the investors to invest in a stock based on the systematic risk of the stock as measure by the beta. The required rate of return or cost of equity can be calculated using the CAPM equation. The CAPM equation is,

r = rRF + Beta * rpM

Where,

rRf is the risk free raterpM is the risk premium on market

r = 0.062 + 0.21 * 0.069

r = 0.07649 or 7.649%

You purchased a stock at a price of $48.98. The stock paid a dividend of $1.63 per share and the stock price at the end of the year was $54.12. What was the total return for the year? Multiple Choice 13.82% 10.49% 13.17% 12.51% 3.33%

Answers

Answer:

13.82%

Explanation:

The computation of total return for the year is shown below:-

Total return = (End value - Beginning value + Dividend) ÷ Beginning value

= ($54.12 - $48.98 + $1.63) ÷ $48.98

= 6.77 ÷ $48.98

= 0.13821

or

= 13.82%

Therefore for computing the total return we simply applied the above formula by considering all the information given in the question

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.

Answers

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.

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.)

Answers

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

An annuity provides for 30 annual payments. The first payment of 100 is made immediately and the remaining payments increase by 8 percent per annum. Interest is calculated at 13.4 percent per annum. Calculate the present value of this annuity.

Answers

Answer:

$1423.38

Explanation:

number of payments ( number of years )(n) = 30

first payment = $100

interest calculated at : 13.4 % = 0.134

increment rate : 8 percent = 0.08

we can calculate the present value using this Equation

= (p / (r-g))  * [1 - [(1+g)/(1+r)]^n ]

where :

p / (r-g) = 100 / (0.134 - 0.08 ) = $1852

[1 - ((1+g)/(1+r)]^n ) =  (1 - ((1.08/1.134)^30 ) =  0.7686

hence the present value of this annuity = $1852 * 0.7686 = $1423.38

Note :

p ( first principal payment ) = $100

r ( calculated interest ) = 13.4% = 0.134

g ( increment interest ) = 8 % = 0.08

A practice, favored by unions, which contractually binds employers to hire only workers who are already members of the union is called a(n):

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is: Closed Shop.

Explanation:

To begin with, the name of "Closed Shop" refers to a type of practice well known as "pre-entry closed shop" too that unions favored with the only purpose to obligate the companies to contract workers who are already members of the union itself so in that situation both the company and the union tend to have an agreement of maintaining certain salary price for the workers so they are not in a continous fight. Moreover, this practice allow the workers to be employed by the company only if they are members of the union and as long as they are members of it.

1. A research project began with the selection of women who had recently had abdominal surgery. The project matched those women with controls and continued with measurements of abdominal muscle strength for both groups every three months for a year. This project was: A. Prospective study B. Retrospective study C. Experimental study D. Cross sectional study

Answers

Answer:

Abdominal rectus diastasis is a condition where the abdominal muscles are separated by an abnormal distance due to widening of the linea alba causing the abdominal content to bulge. It is commonly acquired in pregnancies and with larger weight gains. Even though many patients suffer from the condition, treatment options are poorly investigated including the effect of physiotherapy and surgical treatment. The symptoms include pain and discomfort in the abdomen, musculoskeletal and urogynecological problems in addition to negative body image and impaired quality of life. The purpose of this review was to give an overview of treatment options for abdominal rectus diastasis.

Results: The first treatment step is physiotherapy. However, evidence is lacking on which regimen to use and success rates are not stated. The next step is surgery, either open or laparoscopic, and both surgical approaches have high success rates. The surgical approach includes different plication techniques. The recurrence and complication rates are low, complications are minor, and repair improves low back pain, urinary incontinence, and quality of life. Robotic assisted surgery might become a possibility in the near future, but data are still lacking.

Conclusions: Evidence on what conservatory treatment to use is sparse, and more research needs to be done. Both open and laparoscopic surgery have shown positive results. Innovative treatment by robotic assisted laparoscopic surgery has potential, however, more research needs to be done in this area as well. An international guideline for the treatment of rectus diastasis could be beneficial for patients and clinicians.

Oligopoly firms will seldom change prices but if one firm increases its price, others may follow if costs have Decreased.

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.

Answers

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
