Answer:
the company's cost of equity capital is 14.75 %.
Explanation:
WACC = ke × (E/V) + kd × (D/V)
Where,
ke = cost of equity
= this is unknown
E/V = Weight of Equity
= 55%
kd = cost of debt
= Interest × ( 1 - tax rate)
= 12% × ( 1 - 0.40)
= 7.20 %
D/V = Weight of Debt
= 45%
Therefore,
WACC = ke × (E/V) + kd × (D/V)
11.35% = 55%ke + 7.20 % × 45%
11.35% = 55%ke + 3.24 %
55%ke = 8.11 %
ke = 14.75 %
Firm M has a margin of 7%, turnover of 2.0, sales of $910,000, and average stockholders' equity of $490,000. Required: Calculate Firm M’s average total assets, net income, return on investment (ROI), and return on equity (ROE
Answer:
1. Average total asset = $455,000
2. Net income = $63,700
3. Return on investment = 14%
4. Return on equity (ROE) = 13%
Explanation:
These can be calculated as follows:
1. Average total asset
To calculate this, we use the formula for calculating the Asset turnover ratio as follows:
Asset turnover ratio = Sales / Average total asset ……………………………… (1)
Where;
Turnover = asset turnover ratio = 2
Sales = $910,000
Average total asset = ?
Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for average total asset, we have:
2 = $910,000 / Average total asset
Average total asset = $910,000 / 2
Average total asset = $455,000
2. Net income
To calculate this, we use the formula for calculating net income margin as follows:
Net income margin = Net income / Sales ……………………………………. (2)
Where,
Margin = Net income margin = 7%, or 0.07
Net income = ?
Sales = $910,000
Substituting the values into equation (2) and solve for net income, we have:
7% = Net income / $910,000
Net income = $910,000 * 7%
Net income = $63,700
3. Return on investment
To calculate this, we use the formula for calculating the return on investment as follows:
Return on investment = Net income / Average total assets ……………… (3)
Where;
Net income = $63,700
Average total asset = $455,000
Substituting the values into equation (3), we have:
Return on investment = $63,700 / $455,000
Return on investment = 0.14, or 14%
4. Return on equity (ROE)
To calculate this, we use the formula for calculating the return on equity (ROE) as follows:
Return on equity (ROE) = Net income / Average stockholders' equity…….. (4)
Net income = $63,700
Average stockholders' equity = $490,000
Substituting the values into equation (4), we have:
Return on equity (ROE) = $63,700 / $490,000
Return on equity (ROE) = 0.13, or 13%

of a portfolio. The beta of four stocksG, H, I, and Jare , , , and , respectively. What is the beta of a portfolio with the following weights in each asset: LOADING...? What is the beta of portfolio 1?
Answer: 1.02
Explanation:
The Portfolio Beta will be the weighted average of the betas of the individual stocks in Portfolio 1.
Portfolio Beta = (weight in G * beta of G) + (weight in H * beta of H) + (weight in I * beta of I) + (weight in J * beta of J)
= (0.25 * 0.45) + ( 0.25 * 0.82) + ( 0.25 * 1.14) + ( 0.25 * 1.66)
= 0.1125 + 0.205 + 0.285 + 0.415
= 1.0175
= 1.02
Which of the following does not represent an outflow of cash and therefore would not be reported on the statement of cash flows as a use of cash?
a. purchase of noncurrent assets
b. purchase of treasury stock
c. discarding an asset that had been fully depreciated.
Answer:
The answer is C.
Explanation:
Discarding an asset that had been fully depreciated is the correct answer. No exchange of cash was involved in this unlike the purchase of non current asset(which is a cash outflow under investing activities) and the purchase of treasury stock (which is a cash outflow under financing activities).
Discarding a fully depreciated asset only is a non cash transaction.
Oriole Company purchased equipment for $41600. Sales tax on the purchase was $2496. Other costs incurred were freight charges of $624, repairs of $364 for damage during installation, and installation costs of $696. What is the cost of the equipment
Answer:
The cost of the equipment is $45,416.
Explanation:
The cost of a newly purchased equipment is the addition of all relevant costs uncured in order to make the equipment ready for use.
The cost of the equipment includes costs such as purchase price, tax paid on the purchase, installation costs, etc.
However, any cost incurred to repair any damage to an equipment during installation is not part of equipment cost. Such repair costs are just ordinary expenses that are charged to the income statement during the period.
Based on the explanation above, the cost of the equipment by Oriole Company can be calculated as follows:
Equipment cost = Purchase price + Sales tax + Freight charges + Installation costs ..................... (1)
Since,
Purchase price = $41,600
Sales tax on the purchase = $2.496.
Freight charges = $624
Installation costs = $696.
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Equipment cost = $41,600 + $2,496 + $624 + $696 = $45,416
Therefore, the cost of the equipment is $45,416.

Direct Labor Variances Glacier Bicycle Company manufactures commuter bicycles from recycled materials. The following data for October are available: Quantity of direct labor used 5,000 hrs. Actual rate for direct labor $22.75 per hr. Bicycles completed in October 800 bicycles Standard direct labor per bicycle 6.0 hrs. Standard rate for direct labor $24.00 per hr. a. Determine for October the direct labor rate variance, direct labor time variance, and total direct labor cost variance. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.
Answer:
a) i. Direct labor rate variance = Quantity of direct labor used * (Actual rate for direct labor - Standard rate for direct labor)
= 5,000*(22.75-24)
= -6,250 (Favorable)
ii. Direct labor time variance = Standard rate for direct labor * (Quantity of direct labor used - Bicycles completed in October * Standard direct labor per bicycle)
= 24 * (5000 - 800 * 6)
= 4,800 (Unfavorable)
iii. Total Direct labor cost variance = (Quantity of direct labor used * Actual rate for direct labor) - (Bicycles completed in October * Standard direct labor per bicycle * Standard rate for direct labor)
= (5000 * 22.75) - (800 * 6 * 24)
= -1450 (Favorable)
Answer:
The total cost variance of labor will be "-1,450 (favorable)". The further explanation is given below.
Explanation:
According the question,
Direct labor rate variance will be:
⇒ [tex]5000\times (22.75-24)[/tex]
⇒ [tex]5000\times (-1.25)[/tex]
⇒ [tex]-6,250 \ (favorable)[/tex]
Direct labor time variance will be:
⇒ [tex]24\times (5000-800\times 6)[/tex]
⇒ [tex]24\times 200[/tex]
⇒ [tex]4,800 \ (unfavorable)[/tex]
Now,
The Total Direct labor cost variance will be:
⇒ [tex](5000\times 22.75)-(800\times 6\times 24)[/tex]
⇒ [tex](113,750)-(115,200)[/tex]
⇒ [tex]-1,450 \ (favorable)[/tex]
A stock had returns of 17.88 percent, −5.16 percent, and 20.39 percent for the past three years. What is the variance of the returns?
Answer:
Variance of the return = 0.01983
Explanation:
[tex]S^{2}[/tex]= Σ[tex](X-X)^{2}[/tex]/ N - 1
Mean return = 17.88% + -5.16% + 20.39% = 11.0367%
Variance = [(17.88% - 11.0367%)2 + (-5.16% - 11.0367%)2 + (20.39% - 11.0367%)2] /(3 - 1)
Variance = [0.004683 + 0.026233 + 0.008748]/2
Variance = 0.01983
Concord Corporation has 34000 units in beginning finished goods. If sales are expected to be 140000 units for the year and Concord desires ending finished goods of 40000 units, how many units must the company produce
Answer:
146,000 units
Explanation:
The computation of units must the company produce is shown below:-
As we know that
Units sold = opening inventory + units produced - Closing inventory
So,
Units Produced = Units sold - opening inventory + Closing inventory
= 140,000 - 34,000 + 40,000
= 146,000 units
Hence, the number of units produced by the company is 146,000 units

Answer:
Average accumulated expenditures for 2021 was: $349,000.
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of the Average accumulated expenditures for 2021.
Average accumulated expenditures is calculated by adding the weighted average amount of each expenditure which is the product of the weight of each expenditure in a year and the amount of each expenditure. That is;
Weight of each expenditure = Number of relevant months the expenditure is used 2021 / 12 months
Weighted average amount of each expenditure = Weight of each expenditure * The amount of the expenditure
The project has been challenging to manage. Everyone has been on edge due to pressure to complete the project on time. Unfortunately, the tension has grown to the point where team meetings have become shouting matches and little work is accomplished during the meetings. One team member asks to be excused from future team meetings, as all the shouting upsets him. Meanwhile, the sponsor has asked to attend team meetings in order to better understand how the project is going and the issues involved in completing the project, and the customer has started discussions about adding scope to the project. In this situation, it would be BEST for the project manager to:
Answer: C. Involve the team in creating ground rules for the meetings.
Explanation:
The meetings have seemingly descended into anarchy and as such needs to be controlled in an orderly manner to make any sort of progress. One way this can be done is through the setting of ground rules. These rules need to be accepted and inclusive of people's qualms or else the arguments will continue.
When the rules are made therefore, the inputs of the entire team should be taken into consideration and this is what the Project manager needs to do. Setting all inclusive rules also helps the team understand each other better during the discussions are point of views will be seen and understood better.
An investor holds a 10 year bond pays a coupon rate of 9%. The yeid to maturity of the bond is 10% . The bond is trading:
Answer:
the bond is trading at a discount
Explanation:
There is an inverse relationship between the yield and the price of the bond.
As the yield goes up, the price of the bond goes down and as the yield goes down, the price of the bond goes up.
The yield - 10%, is greater than the coupon rate - 9%, the price will be less than the par value, and we say that the bond is trading at a discount.
Samuel, a longtime employee of the ABCD Corporation, was injured when he fell off a ladder while stocking widgets at ABDC at their East Lansing, Michigan location. Samuel believes ABCD Corporation was negligent for selling widgets. If Samuel sues his employer in a circuit court under a negligence theory of recovery:
a. he will lose
b. he will win
c. he will forfeit his rights to workers compensation benefits, completely
d. he will forfeit his rights to workers compensation benefits, but only if the court awards him non-economic damages
Answer:
Option B. He will win
Explanation:
If Samuel is desiring to sue his employer in a circuit court because he thinks that the employer was negligent then he will have to sue under negligence Act, which says that the employer is obliged to take all necessary precautions and if found negligent then the court may apply contributory negligent theory as well as comparative negligent theory. These two negligent theories means that the employer was partly responsible for injury, which means that this would result in compensation to Samuel.
Hence it is more likely that Samuel will win the case.
It is likely that if Samuel sues ABCD Corporation in a circuit court under a negligence theory of recovery, a. he will lose.
The question to ask is, is ABCD Corporation negligent in selling widgets? No. Is it the case that the corporation's sale of widgets caused Samuel to fall off a ladder while he was stocking them at the Michigan location? No.
For Samuel to be successful in the circuit court, he must prove that ABCD Corporation acted negligently with its sales of widgets, especially:
ABCD Corporation owed a duty to Samuel not to sell widgets ABCD Corporation breached this duty to Samuel ABCD's breach was the actual cause of Samuel's injury ABCD's breach was also the proximate cause of Samuel's fall and injury Samuel suffered actual damages as a result of the negligent act by ABCD Corporation.
Thus, based on the above, Samuel will lose the case because the corporation was not negligent for selling widgets nor for the fall of Samuel from the ladder.

The Baldwin Company currently has the following balances on their balance sheet: Total Assets $260,881 Total Liabilities $150,673 Retained Earnings $52,700 Suppose next year the Baldwin Company generates $44,200 in net profit, pays $12,000 in dividends, total assets increase by $55,000, and total liabilities remain unchanged. What will ending Baldwins balance in Common Stock be next year
Answer:
common stock = $80,308
Explanation:
assets = liabilities + equity
current balance:
$260,881 = $150,673 + $110,208
$110,208 = common stock + retained earnings = $57,508 + $52,700
next year:
net income = $44,200
dividends = $12,000
assets = $260,881 + $55,000 = $315,881
liabilities = $150,673
equity = $315,881 - $150,673 = $165,208
retained earnings = $52,700 + $44,200 - $12,000 = $84,900
common stock = $165,208 - $84,900 = $80,308
The Project Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) was developed as a means of scheduling and controlling projects with constant activity times. Group of answer choices False True
Answer: False
Explanation:
The Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) is used to know the schedule tasks and also know the critical path variation. It is useful to know the length of time that'll be needed for the completion of every task and how it relates to others in order to know the entire time needed to complete the particular project.
The Project Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) is not a means of scheduling and controlling projects with constant activity times. The activity time normally varies.

A three-year annuity-immediate will be issued a year from now with annual payments of 5,000. Using the forward rates, calculate the present value of this annuity a year from now.
Answer:
13,152.5
Explanation:
Given the the above parameters as mentioned in the question
To calculate the PV (Present Value)
We have PV = 5000 * 1.05 * [ 1/(1.0575)² + 1/(0.625)³ + 1/(1.065)⁴]
PV = 5000 * 1.05 * (0.8942094350 + 0.8337064929 + 0.7773230908) =
=> PV = 5000 * 1.05 * 2.5052390187
= 13,152.50
Therefore, in this case, using the forward rates, the present value of this annuity a year from now is 13,152.50
The internal rate of return method is used to analyze a $831,500 capital investment proposal with annual net cash flows of $250,000 for each of the six years of its useful life. a. Determine a present value factor for an annuity of $1, which can be used in determining the internal rate of return. Carry your answer out to three decimal places.
Answer:
annuity factor for 20% and 6 periods = 3.326
Explanation:
the IRR represents the discount rate at which a project's NPV = 0
NPV = initial outlay + PV of future cash flows
NPV = 0
initial outlay = -$831,500
PV of future cash flows = $831,500 = cash flow x annuity factor
annuity factor = $831,500 / $250,000 = 3.326
using an annuity table and looking for the annuity factors for 6 periods, we find that the annuity factor for 20% and 6 periods = 3.326.
So our IRR = 20%
A NASDAQ security is bid at $30.25 and offered at $30.75. An over-the-counter trader effects a trade at $30.75 and charges a commission of $.50 to the customer. The price that will show on the tape is:

cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP
1,620= 330 + DM + 540 + 830 - 420
Direct material= $340

Choose three organizations that you believe have had the greatest impact on the current state of safety and health programs in the United States. Summarize the purpose of each organization, and discuss how you believe you can use these organizations to improve your ability to perform your duties as a safety and health professional.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The three organizations would be OSHA, NIOSH, and NACOSH.
OSHA stands for Occupational Safety and Health Administration. It tries to ensure that the workers labor under the proper safety and health conditions in their workplace.
NIOSH stands for the National Instituto for Occupational Safety and Health. This organization basically is dedicated to researching to know the working conditions of workers in America and make recommendations.
NACOSH stands for the National Advisory Committee on Occupational Safety and Health. It functions as an adviser or counselor to the Department of Labor on safety and security issues.
These three can definitely be used to improve my ability to perform my duties as a safety and health professional in that they include a series of recommendations, programs, and educational tips to be applied in the workplace and diminish the possibility of accidents or how to react in case of one.
You observe a portfolio for five years and determine that its average return is 11.3% and the standard deviation of its returns in 19.7%. Would a 30% loss next year be outside the 95% confidence interval for this portfolio?
Answer:
-28.1%
Explanation:
Calculation for what would a 30% loss next year be outside the 95% confidence interval for the portfolio
The standard deviation of 95% confident will be 2
The first step is to find the Upper tail using this formula
Upper tail= Average return percentage +(Standard deviation of 95% confident *Standard deviation of its returns)
Let plug in the formula
Upper tail=0.113+(2*0.197)
Upper tail =0.113+0.394
Upper tail=0.507*100
Upper tail =50.7%
Second step is to find the Lower tail using this formula
Lower tail=Average return percentage -(Standard deviation of 95% confident *Standard deviation of its returns)
Let plug in the formula
Upper tail=0.113-(2*0.197)
Upper tail =0.113-0.394
Upper tail=-0.281*100
Upper tail =28.1%
Based on the above calculation the lower tail was -28.1% which means that it wouldn't in any way loss more than the 30% of it value next year outside the 95% confidence interval for the portfolio
