Find the net present value of a project that has cash flows of −$12,000 in Year 1, +$5,000 in Years 2 and 3, −$2,000 in Year 4, and +$6,000 in Years 5 and 6. Use an interest rate of 12%. Find the interest rate that gives a net present value of zero.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

NPV = $2,000

IRR = 19.19%

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.  

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator  

Only firms with a positive NPV should accept the project because a negative NPV indicates that the project would be unprofitable for the firm

the interest rate that gives a net present value of zero is the IRR

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested

IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow for year 1 =  −$12,000

Cash flow for year 2 =  $5,000

Cash flow for year 3 =  $5,000

Cash flow for year 4 =  −$2,000

Cash flow for year 5 =  $6,000

Cash flow for year 6 =  $6,000

I = 12%

NPV = $2,000

IRR = 19.19%

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.  

3. Press compute  

To find the IRR using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button.

If United Airlines acted as a "price leader" and all other airlines simply charged the same prices

that United Airlines charged, then could this action be illegal because it is a form of "silent collusion?"

A. There is no such term in microeconomics known as "tacit" or "silent collusion."

B. Matching the prices of the price leader firm is a good example of a competitive market.

C. The U.S. Anti-Trust Department has always considered this business behavior as suspicious

and it does consider this pricing strategy to be illegal.

D. The famous 1982 anti-monopoly IBM court case said that this pricing strategy within an

industry is legal as long as the firms fill out quarterly reports to keep the U.S. Anti-Trust

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The airline industry is an example of an oligopoly

An Oligopoly is when there are few large firms operating in an industry. While, a monopoly is when there is only one firm operating in an industry.

Oligopolies are characterised by :

price setting firms

product differentiation

profit maximisation

high barriers to entry or exit of firms

downward sloping demand curve

the action taken by the other airlines is known as tacit collusion.

Tacit collusion is when other companies adopt the price of the price leader

Tacit collusion is not illegal while the explicit collision is illegal.

Joe must pay liabilities of 1,000 due 6 months from now and another 1,000 due one year from now. There are two available investments: \,1. Bond I: a 6-month bond with face amount of 1,000, a 8% nominal annual coupon rate convertible semiannually, and a 6% nominal annual yield rate convertible semiannually; and \,2. Bond II: a one year bond with face amount of 1,000, a 5% nominal annual coupon rate convertible semiannually, and a 7% nominal annual yield rate convertible semiannually Calculate the amount of each bond Joe should purchase in order to exactly match the liabilities.

Answers

Answer:

future liabilities:

$1,000 in 6 months

$1,000 in 1 year

Present value of bond I (due in 6 months):

PV = $1,000 / (1 + 3%) = $970.87

Present value of bond II (due in 1 year):

PV = $1,000 / (1 + 3.5%)² = $933.51

The price of the bonds is determined by the annual yield rate (YTM), not the coupon rate. Joe will pay $970.87 for bond I and $933.51 for bond II.

Now, if interest rates on other similar-quality loans are 10 percent, what would be the present value of this loan?

What would be the present value of the loan if the interest rate is 8 percent on similar-quality loans?

Answers

Answer:

1)

the %s were missing so I looked for a similar question:

we must use the present value formula:

present value = future value / (1 + interest rate)ⁿ

5% ⇒ $5,000 / 1.05¹⁰ = $3,069.57

7% ⇒ $5,000 / 1.07⁷ = $3,113.75

9% ⇒ $5,000 / 1.09⁴ = $3,542.13

2)

we can use the future value of an annuity formula:

future value = annual payment x annuity factor

FV = $5,000 x 7.7156 (FV annuity factor, 10%, 6 years) = $38,578

3)

PV = $3,000/1.04 + $3,000/1.04² = $2,884.62 + $2,773.67 = $5,658.29

4)

present value of an annuity = $500 x 4.3553 (PV annuity factor, 10%, 6 periods) = $2,177.65

present value of an annuity = $500 x 6.1446 (PV annuity factor, 10%, 10 periods) = $3,072.30

5)

annual payment = present value / annuity factor = $500,000 / 3.6048 (PV annuity factor, 12%, 5 years) = $138,703.95

6)

annual payment = present value / annuity factor = $15,000 / 3.1699 (PV annuity factor, 10%, 4 years) = $4,732.01

7)

the value of the loan = PV of the principal + PV of the interest payments

PV of the principal = $1,000 / 1.085⁸ = $520.67

PV of interest payments = $85 x 5.63918 (PV annuity factor, 8.5%, 8 periods) = $479.33

market value of the debt = $1,000

8)

the value of the loan = PV of the principal + PV of the interest payments

PV of the principal = $1,000 / 1.085¹⁰ = $442.29

PV of interest payments = $85 x 5.3349 (PV annuity factor, 10%, 8 periods) = $453.47

market value of the debt = $895.76

9)

the value of the loan = PV of the principal + PV of the interest payments

PV of the principal = $1,000 / 1.08⁸ = $540.27

PV of interest payments = $85 x 5.7466 (PV annuity factor, 8.5%, 8 periods) = $488.46

market value of the debt = $1,028.73

a. What is the EOQ?
b. What is the average inventory if the EOQ is used?
c. What is the optimal number of orders per year?
d. What is the optimal number of days in between any two orders?
e. What is the annual cost of ordering and holding inventory?
f. What is the total annual inventory cost, including cost of the 6,000 units?

Answers

Answer: Please find answers below

Explanation:

(a) Economic order quantity EOQ = [tex]\sqrt{2 X Annual Demand X Ordering Cost) / Carrying Cost)}[/tex]

= [tex]\sqrt{2 X 5,900 X 29 / 9 }[/tex]     = [tex]\sqrt{38,022.222}[/tex]

= 194.99 units  

(b) Average number of units = Economic order quantity / 2

= 194.99 / 2  

= 97.496 units    

(c) Optimal number of orders = Annual Demand / Economic order quantity

= 5,900units / 194.99 units  =30.26  

(d) Optimal number of days between two orders = Number of working days / Optimal number of orders

= 250 days / 30.26  

= 8.26  

Total ordering cost = Cost per order X Number of orders

= $29 X 30.26  

= $ 877.54

Total holding cost = Average inventory X carrying cost per unit

= 194.99 /2  X $9  

= $877.455

(e) Annual cost of ordering and holding inventorY =Total ordering cost + Total carrying cost

= $ 877.54  + $877.455

= $ 1,754.995  ≈ $1,755  

 

 

(f) Total annual inventory cost =Total ordering cost +Total holding cost + Actual cost of 5900 units at $102 per unit    

= $ 877.54  + $877.455  + (5,900 x 102) = $1754.995 +601,800= $603,554.995≈$603,555

Total annual inventory cost =Total ordering cost +Total holding cost + Actual cost of 6000 units at $102 per unit    

= $ 877.54  + $877.455  + (6000 x 102) = $1754.995 +612,000= $613,754.995≈$613,755

Liam had an extension built onto his home. He financed it for 48 months with a loan at ​% APR. His monthly payments were . How much was the loan amount for this​ extension?

Answers

Answer:

The loan is $31,694.73

Explanation:

The complete question is as follows;

Liam had an extension built onto his home. He financed it for 48 months with a loan at 5.75.7​% APR. His monthly payments were $740. How much was the loan amount for this​ extension?

solution

We proceed as follows;

From the question, we have the following terms:

Rate = 5.7%

The monthly rate is thus;

Monthly rate = 5.7% / 12 = 0.475%

Mathematically;

Loan = Annuity * [1 - 1 / (1 + r)^n] / r

Loan = 740 * [1 - 1 / (1 + 0.00475)^48] / 0.00475

Loan = 740 * [1 - 0.796554] / 0.00475

Loan = 740 * 42.830712

Loan = $31,694.73

At the beginning of 2023, the Mackinac Company purchased a machine for $510,000 (salvage value of $60,000) that had a useful life of 6 years. The bookkeeper used straight-line depreciation, but failed to deduct the salvage value in computing the depreciation base. Depreciation has been recorded through 2025. The errors were discovered on 1/10/26; the 2025 books are still open. Correcting journal entries would include what entry to 1/1/25 Retained Earnings?

Answers

Answer:

$10,000 credited

Explanation:

DATA

Machine cost = 510,000

Salvage value = $60,000

Useful life = 6 years

Depreciation = $60,000/6years

Depreciation = $10,000

It means that we have overstated depreciation expense for the year with the amount of $10,000.

Retained earnings will be credited by $10,000 As the depreciation expense was overstated mistakenly by $10,000

For an automobile company, the total overhead applied was $48,000,000 at the end of the year. Actual overhead was $52,850,000. Closing over/under applied overhead into cost of goods sold would cause net income to:

Answers

Answer:

Net income decreased by $4,850,000.

Explanation:

Given total overhead applied = $48000000

The actual overhead = $52850000

Over/under Applied overhead = total overhead applied - Actual overhead at the end of the year.

Over / under Applied overhead = 48000000-52850000

Over / under Applied overhead = -$4850000

From the calculation, it can be seen that the overhead is underapplied therefore when under applied overhead allocated to cost of goods sold then cost of goods sold decreased by $4850000.

What is the present value​ (PV) of an investment that pays $60,000 every year for four years if the interest rate is 9​% ​APR, compounded​ quarterly?

Answers

Answer:

PV= $798,757.88

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cf= $60,000

i= 0.09/4= 0.0225

n= 4*4= 16

First, we need to calculate the future value using the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual cash flow

FV= {60,000*[(1.0225^16) - 1]} / 0.0225

FV= $1,140,323.89

Now, the present value:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 1,140,323.89/(1.0225^16)

PV= $798,757.88

Factors of production, such as physical capital, human capital, and technological knowledge, are crucial to economic growth. Therefore, institutions that foster strong incentives and create an environment favorable to the development of such factors of production are vital to economic growth. Which of the following are examples of such institutions?
A. Competitive and open markets.B. Free-riding culture.C. A dependable legal system.D. Political stability.E. Government expropriation.

Answers

Answer:

A. Competitive and open markets.

C. A dependable legal system.

D. Political stability.

Explanation:

A Competitive and open Market ensures that people have enough incentives to invest in the development of factors of production because it rewards that investment with a healthy return. In a Competitive market, unfair competition will not be present therefore people will get equal opportunities to make returns.

A dependable Legal System and Political Stability go hand in hand to ensure that investors will have enough faith in the system to want to invest in Factors of Production. If a country is stable politically and abides by the rule of law, an investor will be assured that when they invest, these investments will be protected by the powers that be and their returns will not be impacted by political upheavals and breaches of contract that cannot be rectified.

In Year 1 Jorge buys a home for $200,000, making a down payment of $40,000 and taking out a loan from the bank for $160,000 to finance the balance. In Year 5 the remaining loan balance is $130,000 while the home has increased in value to $270,000. Jorge refinances with a loan company that agrees to lend 125% of the value of the home, or $337,500, using $130,000 to repay the bank loan and providing $207,500 in cash. Jorge immediately spends $10,000 of the cash on a lavish vacation to the Bahamas, and $20,000 to pay down credit cards.

How much of the $337,500 home equity loan balance is allowable for calculating the home mortgage interest deduction on Jorge’s Year 5 tax return?

a. $270,000
b. $240,000
c. $230,000
d. $220,000

Answers

Answer:

Under current tax law, no option is correct. Before 2018, option C would have been right.

Explanation:

Currently under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (from Jan. 2018 until Dec. 2025) you can only deduct interests on mortgages used to purchase, build or improve your home. In this case, Jorge will only be able to deduct the interests paid on the $130,000 he owed for the first mortgage.

Interests on home equity loans will again be deductible (up to $100,000) starting Jan. 2026.

Jiminy’s Cricket Farm issued a bond with 30 years to maturity and a semiannual coupon rate of 4 percent 2 years ago. The bond currently sells for 107 percent of its face value. The company’s tax rate is 21 percent. The book value of the debt issue is $60 million. In addition, the company has a second debt issue on the market, a zero coupon bond with 10 years left to maturity; the book value of this issue is $35 million, and the bonds sell for 76 percent of par.

Required:
a. What is the company’s total book value of debt?
b. What is the company’s total market value of debt?
c. What is your best estimate of the aftertax cost of debt?

Answers

Answer:

a. What is the company’s total book value of debt?

total book value of debt = $60,000,000 + $35,000,000 = $95,000,000

 

b. What is the company’s total market value of debt?

total market value of debt = ($60,000,000 x 1.07) + ($35,000,000 x 0.76) = $64,200,000 + $26,600,000 = $90,800,000

c. What is your best estimate of the after tax cost of debt?

weight of debt (using market value):

$64,200,000 / $90,800,000 = 70.7%

$26,600,000 / $90,800,000 = 29.3%

YTM bond I = {1,200,000 + [(60,000,000 - 64,200,000)/56]} / [(60,000,000 + 64,200,000)/2] = 1,125,000 / 62,100,000 = 1.8115 x 2 = 3.62%

YTM bond II = (35 / 26.6)¹/¹⁰ - 1 = 2.78%

after tax cost of debt = (0.707 x 3.62% x 0.79) + (0.293 x 2.78% x 0.79) = 2.02% + 0.64% = 2.66%

XYZ, Inc. has a beta of 0.8. The yield on a 3-month T-bill is 5%, and the yield on a 10-year T-bond is 7%. The market risk premium is 5.5%, and the return on an average stock in the market last year was 20%. What is the estimated cost of common equity using the CAPM? Show your work

Answers

Answer:

the estimated cost of common equity using the CAPM is 11.40 %.

Explanation:

Cost of Equity = Return on the Risk Free Security + Beta × Return on Market Portfolio

                       = 7.00 % +  0.8 × 5.5%

                       = 11.40 %

The estimated cost of common equity using the CAPM is 11.40 %.

Calculation of the cost of common equity;

Since the return on risk-free rate is 7%, beta is 0.8 and, the market risk premium is 5.5%

So here the cost of common equity should be

= Return on the Risk Free + Beta × Market risk premium

= 7.00 % +  0.8 × 5.5%

= 11.40 %

Hence, The estimated cost of common equity using the CAPM is 11.40 %.

Jaime then writes out the contract, detailing only that he will sell Bronn his armor and the sword. He also lists the delivery date for next Wednesday. The next week on the day of performance, Jaime fails to deliver the armor and sword.

Cake Pie Cookies Contribution margin $18 $11 $3 Production hours 2 1.5 .25 Variable cost $12 $7 $1 Contribution margin/hr. $9 $7.33 $12 Current selling price $30 $18 $5 a.$45 b.$30 c.$42 d.$36

Answers

Answer:

d. $36

Explanation:

The Contribution margin is the net of selling price and variable cost of a product. It is calculated by deducting the variable cost from the selling price of a product.

                                          Cake   Pie    Cookies

Current selling price          $30    $18    $5

Variable cost                      $12     $7      $1

Contribution margin           $18     $11     $3

Production hours                2        1.5     0.25

Contribution margin/hr.     $9     $7.33  $12

Required Contribution margin per hour of cake = $12

Required Contribution margin = $12 x 2 = $24

Required Selling Price = Contribution margin + variable cost = $24 + $12 = $36

Note there is a mistake in the calculation of Contribution margin of Cookies as it is given $3 but after deducting the variable cost from selling price is should be $4 ( $5 - $1 ), I used the given contribution margin for the calculation.

If the Fed increases the discount rate, which of the following accurately describes the sequence of events that will follow in the banking system, finally leading to a decline in money supply?
A. Reserves ↓: Excess reserves ↓; Loans ↓; Deposits ↓; Money supply ↓
B. Loans ↓; Deposits ↓; Reserves ↓; Excess reserves ↓; Money supply ↓
C. Deposits ; Reserves: Excess reserves; Loans ↓; Money supply ↓
D. Excess reserves ↓; Reserves ↓; Loans ↓; Deposits ↓; Money supply ↓

Answers

Answer: A. Reserves ↓: Excess reserves ↓; Loans ↓; Deposits ↓; Money supply ↓

Explanation:

The discount rate is the rate at which the Fed lends money to banks and other depository type institutions. Normally banks have a reserve requirement that the Fed requires of them which states how much they are to leave with the Fed as a reserve. Banks tend to fall short of this reserve sometimes and so can borrow from the Fed to balance it off.

If the Fed increase the rate at which these banks can borrow, they will not want to do so thus leaving their Reserves at the Fed lower than it should be. They will then use their excess reserves which is money kept in reserve more than the Fed requires, to balance off their reserve at the Fed.

As a result of this reduction in their Excess reserve, they will have less money to give out as loans. With less loans being made, people will not have as much money to deposit after taking the loans. Money supply will then fall as a whole.

Booher Book Stores has a beta of 1.0. The yield on a 3-month T-bill is 3% and the yield on a 10-year T-bond is 6%. The market risk premium is 4.5%, and the return on an average stock in the market last year was 10.5%. What is the estimated cost of common equity using the CAPM

Answers

Answer:

Cost of equity =  10.5%

Explanation:

The capital asset pricing model is a risk-based model. Here, the return on equity is dependent on the level of reaction of the the equity to changes in the return on a market portfolio. These changes are captured as systematic risk. The magnitude by which a stock is affected by systematic risk is measured by beta.

Under CAPM, Ke= Rf + β(Rm-Rf)  

Rf-risk-free rate (long-term i.e 10 year treasury bill rate), β= Beta, Rm= Return on market., Ke- Return on equity (cost of equity)

This model can be used to work out the cost of equity as follows:

Ke= Rf + β (Rm-Rf)

Rf- 6%, β= 1.0, Rm- 10.5, E(r)- ?

Ke = 6% + 1.0× (10.5 -6)% = 10.5%

Ke  = 10.5%

Cost of equity =  10.5%
