Answers

Answer:

$4 trillion or $4,000 billion$3.5 trillion or $3,500 billion

Explanation:

1. Equilibrium Output or GDP is calculated by the expression;

Output or Y = Consumption + Investment + Government expenditure + Net exports

Net exports and Government expenditure are assumed to be 0.

Consumption  = 100 + 0.9Y

Investment = $300 billion

Y = 100 + 0.9Y + 300

Y - 0.9Y = 400

Y = 400/0.1

Y = $4,000 billion

2. Y = 50 + 0.9Y + 300

Y - 0.9Y = 350

0.1Y = 350

Y = 350/0.1

Y = $3,500 Billion

b. Days' sales in inventory
c. Accounts receivable turnover
d. Acid test rato

Answers

Answer:

 1.1 The ratio from the list below which measures the efficiency of the operations of a company is D - Total Asset Turnover Ratio.  

Explanation:

Total Asset Turn Over Ratio is calculated by dividing Net Sales by Average Total Assets.

For example, if company CDH is reporting a value of $499,650 as initial total assets and $387,656 as ending total assets. Within the same period, the company generated sales of $250,655, with sales returns of $17,000.

This means that, the asset turnover ratio for Company CDH is calculated as follows:

($250,655-$17,000)/(($387,656+$499,650)/2)

The answer is 0.52667

Thus, every dollar in total assets generates $0.52667 in sales.

Efficiency ratios are important for rating the operations of the business. They are also used by investors and lenders when conducting financial analysis of businesses to decide whether the companies are a good investment.

1.2 The component which summarises the components applicable in 1.1 is D Total Asset Turnover          

2. Working capital is the variance between current assets and current liabilities.

. This is simply the capital that an organisation uses in its day-to-day business operations.

3.   The short-term liquidity ratios which calculate how frequently a company collects its accounts are:

A) Days' sales Uncollected and

C) Accounts receivable turnover.

A) Days' sales Uncollected is calculated by

(Accounts receivable/Net annual credit sales) x 365

It is the number of days before receivables are collected.

The lower the ratio the more liquid the company is likely to be. High Days' Sales Uncollected Ratios are bad for business.

C) Accounts receivable turnover is the annual rate at which a business collects its average accounts receivable.

A gift-wrapping business is staffed by Kaitlyn, Rob, Sam, Susan and Sarah. The production by each of the staff members for an average eight-hour work day is as follows:

Assume that the standard or normal productivity in the organization is 10 minutes per package. What is Kaitlyn's efficiency?

Kaitlyn Rob Sam Susan Sarah
72 packages 55 packages 52 packages 52 packages 48 packages

a. 0.75 (75%)
b. 1.50(150%)
c. 9.0 packages per hour
d. 1.50 packages per hour
e. 9.0 minutes per package

Answers

Answer:

b. 1.50(150%)

Explanation:

Given that, the standard time per packages is 10 minutes

Then, the total time taken in eight hour shift is 8 * 60 = 480 minutes

The standard output = Total time taken / Standard time = 480/10 = 48 packages

Therefore, the efficiency of Kaitlyn = Kaitlyn's Output / Standard output

=72 / 48

= 1.5

Hence, the answer is 150% or 1.5

Using the same information from before, please calculate the WACC of Correct Inc. assuming a risk free rate of 2.5%, a company Beta of 1.2 and a market risk premium of 6%.

Answers

Answer:

WACC = 21.7%

Explanation:

The firm is an all-equity finance firm which implies that the company uses only equity funds to finance its its operation without the use of debt. Therefore, the cost of the equity of the firm would be the same as its cost of capital (WACC)

The WACC can be determined using the the capital asset pricing model (CAPM). The CAPM relates the price of a share to the market risk or systematic risk. The systematic risk is that which affects all the all the economic agents, e.g inflation, interest rate e.t.c  

Using the CAPM , the required rate of return is given as follows:  

E(r)= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)  

E(r) - required return

β- Beta

Rm- Return on market  

Rf- Risk-free rate

Rm-Rf- Market risk premium

DATA

E(r) =? , Rf- 2.5%, Rm-Rf- 6% , β- 1.2

E(r) = 2.5% + 1.2× (16%) = 21.7 %

Cost of equity = 21.7%

WACC = 21.7%

g If Warren Buffet can beat the market using value investing, then... Group of answer choices the market is semi-strong form efficient the market is weak form efficient the market cannot be efficient the market is strong form efficient

Answers

Answer: The market is weak form efficient

Explanation:

Weak form markets are markets in which stocks are said to incorporate all past information in their prices. Investors who believe that the market is at weak form efficiency believe that since the stock contains past information, using the current information in the company's books to determine if the company is overvalued or undervalued is possible (fundamental analysis).

Warren Buffet's Value Investing means that he invests in stocks that he believes to be undervalued and sells them for higher or holds them when they appreciate. This is consistent with fundamental analysis. If Warren Buffet is beating the market by investing in undervalued stock then the market is indeed weak form efficient.

An international corporation located in Country A is considering a project in the United States. The currency in Country A​, say X​, has been strengthening relative to the U.S.​ dollar; specifically, the average devaluation of the U.S. dollar has been ​% per year​ (which is projected to​ continue). Assume the present exchange rate is units of X per U.S. dollar. a. What is the estimated exchange rate two years from​ now? b.​ If, instead, currency X was devaluing at the same rate ​(​% per​ year) relative to the U.S.​ dollar, what would be the exchange rate three years from​ now?

Answers

Answer:

a) the US dollar would devaluate by 2.6% in the first year, that means that the exchange rate between X and the US dollar will change from 6.4X per US dollar to 6.2336X per dollar. In two years, as the US dollar devaluates even more, the exchange rate will be 6.0715X per US dollar.

b) if both currencies devaluate at the same rate, then the exchange rate between them will not vary and will still be 6.4X per US dollar.

Explanation:

some information was missing, so I looked it up:

current exchange rate = 6.4X per US dollar

devaluation rate of US dollar = 2.6% per year

Oil Dawg, an oil tanker company, shipped oil to coasts all over the US. During many deliveries, the crew was dumping waste into the ocean. To conceal this, the crew falsified entries into the record book and lied to the Coast Guard about waste disposal. Top executives in the company were unaware this was happening. A jury convicted Oil Dawg of conspiracy, pollution, and obstruction of justice and the company was fined $4.9 Million. Oil Dawg appealed. Should Oil Dawg be found criminally liable for the illegal actions of its lower-level employees under the doctrine of respondeat superior? Why or Why not?

Answers

Answer:

The doctrine of respondeat superior is generally applied to torts and is used by civil courts, but can also include criminal activities. In this case, the main issue is the fine imposed on Oil Dawg, so yes, this doctrine applies.

Respondeat superior basically makes the principal (the employer in this case) legally responsible for unlawful or negligent acts committed by its agents (employees in this case). This doctrine applies as long as the illegal acts were committed within the scope of the normal employment, e.g. crashing a van while making a delivery. In this case, the illegal polluting was carried out while transporting oil to the US.

The only possible defense that Oil Dawg might have is that the people that committed the illegal polluting were independent contractors and they weren't actual employees of the company. But according to the text given, that is not the case.

This doesn't mean that only the employer will be go to trial, the employees that committed the illegal polluting will also go to trial since they are both liable, and maybe face the same or even different charges.

Jordan issued 10-year, 11% bonds with a par value of $110,000. Interest is paid semiannually. The market rate on the issue date was 10%. Jordan received $116,855 in cash proceeds. Which of the following statements is True? Multiple Choice Suring must pay $116,855 at maturity and no interest payments.

Answers

Answer:

$110,000 on maturity

Interest of $6,050 semiannually

Explanation:

Jordan will pay $110,000 at maturity date with 20 payments of  $6050 as interest

11% bonds at par value = $110,000

Interest paid = Semiannually

Market rate = 10%

At maturity, the par value will be paid as the par value of Jordan issued bonds is 110,000, therefore, Jordan will pay 110,000 on the maturity date.

As the bonds are issued for 10 years with semiannual payments that will be like 20 payments of $6,050 (110,000 x 10% x 6/12)

Under the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), an implied warranty of fitness of a particular purpose arises if the buyer is relying on the seller to select suitable goods. This simply means that, Construction Products who is the seller of the bricks and stones implied a warranty of fitness because they know the purpose for which Dante will use the acquired goods and should meet his requirements or needs.

Hence, Construction Products Company is bounded by the contractual agreement (warranty) to provide quality goods which would meet Dante's reasons for buying them since he relying on their expertise or judgmental skills.

What must be the price of a $5,000 bond with a 6.6​% coupon​ rate, semiannual​ coupons, and two years to maturity if it has a yield to maturity of 10​% ​APR?

Answers

Answer:

Bond Price = $4698.59

Explanation:

The price of  a bond is equal to the present value of the interest payments, which are in form of an annuity, made by the bond plus the present value of the face value of the bond.

The formula to calculate the price of the bond is attached.

The semi annual coupon rate = 6.6% / 2 = 3.3%

Total period = 2 * 2 = 4

Semi annual YTM = 10% / 2 = 5%

Semi annual coupon payment = 5000 * 0.033 = 165

Bond Price = 165 * [( 1 - (1 + 0.05)^-4) / 0.05]  +  5000 / (1+0.05)^4

Bond Price = $4698.59

Elize’s federal income tax withholding is $94, and she has no voluntary deductions. Use January 15 for the end of the pay period and the payment date. Prepare the journal entries to record (a) Elize’s pay for the period and (b) the payment of Elize’s wages.

Answers

Answer:

(a) Debit Wages expense for $950; Credit Federal income tax withholding for $94; and Credit Wages payable for $856

(b) Debit wages payable for $856; and Credit Cash for $856.

Explanation:

The entries will look as follows:

a) Prepare the journal entries to record Elize’s pay for the period

Date           Account title                                 Dr ($)          Cr ($)      

Jan 15        Wages expense (w.3)                    950

                    Federal income tax withholding                      94

                    Wages payable (w.4)                                      856

                   (To Elize’s pay for the period.)                                        

(b) Prepare the journal entry to record the payment of Elize’s wages.

Date           Account title                                 Dr ($)          Cr ($)      

Jan 15        Wages payable (w.4)                      856

                  Cash                                                                   856

                  (To record the payment of Elize’s wages.)                        

Workings:

Normal hours = 40

Number of hours worked = 45

Overtime hours = Number or hours worked - Normal hours = 45 - 40 = 5

Normal hourly wage rate = $20

Overtime hourly rate = $30

Federal income tax withholding = $94

w.1: Normal wage amount = Normal hours * Normal wage rate = 40 * $20 = $800

w.2: Overtime pay = Overtime hours * Overtime hourly rate = 5 * $30 = $150

w.3: Wages expense = Normal wage amount + Overtime pay = $800 + $150 = $950

w.4: Wages payable = Total wage amount - Federal income tax withholding = $950 - $94 = $856

Most Company has an opportunity to invest in one of two new projects. Project Y requires a $345,000 investment for new machinery with a six-year life and no salvage value. Project Z requires a $345,000 investment for new machinery with a five-year life and no salvage value. The two projects yield the following predicted annual results. The company uses straight-line depreciation, and cash flows occur evenly throughout each year.

Project Y Project Z
Sales 360,000 288,000
Expenses
Direct materials 50,400 36,000
Direct labor 72,000 43,200
