Answer:
Use the Gordon Growth formula for this.
The price of a stock in the current year is:
= (Dividends in current year * (1 + growth rate) ) / (Required return - growth rate)
Current price
= (2.55 * ( 1 + 3.9%) ) / (10.4% - 3.9%)
= $40.76
In 3 years:
= (2.55 * ( 1 + 3.9%)⁴ ) / (10.4% - 3.9%)
= $45.72
In 15 years:
= (2.55 * ( 1 + 3.9%)¹⁶ ) / (10.4% - 3.9%)
= $72.36

Question 3 4 Marks Mi Tierra Driving School charges $680 per student to prepare and administer written and driving tests. Variable costs of $408 per student include trainers’ wages, study materials, and gasoline. Annual fixed costs of $63,920 include the training facility and fleet of cars. Requirements 1. For each of the following independent situations, calculate the contribution margin per unit and the breakeven point in units by first referring to the original data provided: a. Breakeven point with no change in information. b. Decrease sales price to $544 per student. c. Decrease variable costs to $340 per student. d. Decrease fixed costs to $53,040.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price= $680
Unitary variable cost= $408
Fixed cost= $63,920
To calculate the contribution margin and break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:
Unitary contribution margin= selling price - unitary variable cost
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
a:
Unitary contribution margin= 680 - 408= $272
Break-even point in units= 63,920 / 272
Break-even point in units= 235
b:
Unitary contribution margin= 544 - 408= $136
Break-even point in units= 63,920 / 136
Break-even point in units= 470
c:
Unitary contribution margin= 680 - 340= $340
Break-even point in units= 63,920 / 340
Break-even point in units= 188
d:
Unitary contribution margin= 680 - 408= $272
Break-even point in units= 53,040 / 272
Break-even point in units= 195
On January 2 Kelly company performed $800 worth of services for a client. The client paid $100 immediately, but promised to pay the balance next month. The journal entry to record this transaction in Calley company's books would include a _____ to the cash account; a _____ to the accounts receivable account and a _____ to the service revenue account.
Answer:
$100, $700, $800
Explanation:
Calley Journal entries would include:
Debiting $100 to the cash account
Debit the $700 to the receivables account
Credit $800 to the revenue account
This follows the double entry rule that a credit in one account must correspond to at least one debit in another account.
We debit all asset accounts(receivables,cash) when increased and credit all liabilities account when increased. We credit all income account(revenue) when increased and debit all expenses account when increased.
Answer:
Date Account Title Debit Credit
Jan, 2 Cash $100
Accounts Receivable $700
Service revenue $800
$100 will be debited to Cash to show that $100 was received. The rest of the bill will go to the Accounts Receivables to shows that it is still owed. Then finally the entire $800 will go to Service revenue to show that services were performed for a client up to $800 worth.
Wagon Department Store had net credit sales of $16,000,000 and cost of goods sold of $15,000,000 for the year. The average inventory for the year amounted to $2,000,000. Inventory turnover for the year is Group of answer choices 8 times. 15 times. 7.5 times. 5 times.
Answer:
The answer is "7.5 times"
Explanation:
Inventory turnover represents the rate where an enterprise sells or substitutes its inventory for a certain period. The stock revenue ratio is the cost of products sold, that are divided by the total equity for the same period.
The efficacy of an entrepreneur's turning stock into sales is evaluated. This ratio also demonstrates whether well the costs of the stock are handled, if the stock is too large or not.
[tex]\text{Inventory turnover ratio} = \frac{\text{Cost of goods sold}}{\text{Average Inventory}}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{15000000}{2000000}\\\\= \frac{15}{2}\\\\ = 7.5\ times[/tex]
A company is considering investing in a new machine that requires a cash payment of $38,198 today. The machine will generate annual cash flows of $15,904 for the next three years. What is the internal rate of return if the company buys this machine?
Answer:
Internal rate of return = 12%
Explanation:
Below is the calculation of internal rate of return:
The new machine requires cash payment = $38198
Annual cash flows = $15904
Time period = 3 years
First divide the cash payment with the annual cash flow and then look at the factor table to find the interest rate at 3rd year.
Factor = 38198 / 15904 = 2.40
Now look the value 2.40 in the table:
Thus Internal rate of return = 12%

Suppose that Jeremiah was unfairly terminated before his employment contract expired, and he had to spend $500 to find another job. His job search expenditures would be considered _____ damages.
Answer:
Incidental damages
Explanation:
In a situation where an employer doesn't fulfill a contract agreement with an employee, just like in the question above, where Jeremiah was unfairly terminated before his employment contract expired, he has the right to collect "damages" which is legal compensation for financial losses caused by the termination of his employment contract before it expired. Incidental damage is the answer because Jeremiah incurred expenses where he had to spend $500 to find another job as a result of the employer's breach of the contract.
why do you think that the npv method choosen by you is the most suitable method in ecaluating the proposed investment?
Answer:
Hind Petrochemicals Company
The reason that the NPV method is the most suitable method in evaluating the proposed investment is that
the NPV reduces all the cash outflows and inflows to their present value to assess their relative values vis-a-vis the time value of money.
Explanation:
NPV, therefore, creates a common denominator for project evaluation. If the cash outflows in their present values are more than the cash inflows in their present values, then Hind may need to reconsider its decision to buy the refineries from the government. Using NPV enables Hind Petrochemicals to compute the revenues and costs in their present values and cash flow forms.
Supriya invested $14,320 in a highly rated ETF. At the end of four years, she had $18,434. What was her annual effective yield on this investment

In a Chapter 11 bankruptcy, a class of creditors is considered to have accepted the bankruptcy plan when: Group of answer choices two-thirds of the class in dollar amount agree. at least 51 percent of the class in number agree. at least 90 percent of the members of the class agree. at least 51 percent of the class in dollar amount and two-thirds of the class in number agree. one-half of the class in number and two-thirds of the class in dollar amount agree.
Answer:
In a Chapter 11 bankruptcy, a class of creditors is considered to have accepted the bankruptcy plan when:
one-half of the class in number and two-thirds of the class in dollar amount agree.
Explanation:
In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the business assets are liquidated to pay the creditors. In a Chapter 11 bankruptcy, the business assets are not liquidated. Instead, the business is refinanced as the assets and debts are reorganized, making it possible for the continued existence of the business. This is the reason the agreement of the creditors are usually paramount in the decision to undergo a Chapter 11 bankruptcy, unlike a Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

A local distributor for a national tire company expects to sell approximately 10,160 tires of a certain size and tread design next year. Annual carrying cost is $14 per tire and ordering cost is $76. The distributor operates 287 days a year.
a. What is the EOQ
b. How many times per year does the store reorder?
c. What is the length of an order cycle?
d. What is the total annual cost if the EOQ quantity is ordered?
Answer:
Following are the solution to the given points:
Explanation:
Given:
[tex](D) = 10,160\ tires / year\\\\(H) = \$14 / tire\\\\(S) = \$76\\\\work\ days\ number = 287 \ \frac{days}{year}[/tex]
For point a:
[tex]EOQ = \sqrt{(\frac{2DS}{H})}[/tex]
[tex]=\sqrt{(\frac{2\times 10,160\times 14 }{14})}\\\\=\sqrt{({2\times 10,160})}\\\\=\sqrt{20320}\\\\=142.548[/tex]
For point b:
Calculating the order of number of per year [tex]= \frac{D}{EOQ}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{10,160}{142.548}\\\\=71.27\approx 71[/tex]
therefore, the reorded store 71 times per year
For point c:
Calculating the order cycle length [tex]= (\frac{EOQ}{D}) \times \text{work days number in a year}[/tex]
[tex]= (\frac{142.548}{10,160}) \times287\\\\= 0.0140\times287\\\\=4.018[/tex]
For point d:
[tex]\text{Total annual cost = carrying cost + ordering cost}[/tex]
Carrying cost:
[tex]= (\frac{EOQ}{2}) \times H \\\\= (\frac{142.548}{2}) \times 14 \\\\= 71.274 \times 14 \\\\= \$997.836 \approx 998\\\\\[/tex]
Ordering cost:
[tex]= (\frac{D}{EOQ}) \times S \\\\ = (\frac{10160}{142.548}) \times 76 \\\\ = 71.274\times 76\\\\ = \$5416.824\\\\[/tex]
[tex]\therefore\\\\\text{Total annual cost = Carrying cost + Holding cost}[/tex]
[tex]=998+5416.824\\\\=6414.824[/tex]
mprudential, Incorporated, has an unfunded pension liability of $750 million that must be paid in 25 years. To assess the value of the firm's stock, financial analysts want to discount this liability back to the present. If the relevant discount rate is 10.0 percent, what is the present value of this liability

You buy a lottery ticket to a lottery that costs $10 per ticket. There are only 100 tickets available to be sold in this lottery. In this lottery there are one $455 prize, two $75 prizes, and four $20 prizes. Find your expected gain or loss. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Answer: Expected loss of $2.45
Explanation:
The expected gain is a weighted probability of the expected outcomes and their individual probabilities.
There is one $455 prize out of 100 tickets so the probability is: 1/100 = 0.01
There are two $75 prizes so the probability is: 2/100 = 0.02
There are four $20 prizes so the probability is: 4/100 = 0.04
There is a chance that you will lose the $10 and that probability is the :
= 1 - 0.01 - 0.02 - 0.04
= 0.93
Expected gain (loss) = (0.01 * 455) + (0.02 * 75) + (0.04 * 20) + (0.93 * -10)
= ($2.45)

A second-year MBA student, takes three hours off one evening and uses his car to go to a movie with a friend. A ticket to the movie costs Josh $5, gasoline for the trip costs $1, and Josh passed up tutoring a student that night at $10 an hour. He could also have used the three hours to work as a grader for a professor at $15 an hour. What is Joshâs economic cost of going to the movie?
Answer:
$-39
Explanation:
Economic cost is implicit cost less accounting cost
Implicit cost or opportunity cost : implicit cost is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives. It is used in calculating economic profit
There are two opportunities the student forgoes when he decides to go to the movies. They are, the amount he would have earned if he tutored the student which has a value of $10 / hour and the amount he would have earned working as a grader which is $15 / hour.
The next best option is $15 / hour because it has a higher value
total economic cost = 15 x 3 = 45
the cost of the ticket and the cost of gasoline are explicit costs
Explicit cost includes the amount expended in going to the cinema
6 - 45 = -39
Lupo Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. The company based its predetermined overhead rate for the current year on the following data:

Recently. Job T687 was completed with the following characteristics:
Number of units in the job 10
Total machine-hours
Direct materials
Direct labor cost $ 580 $1,160
The total job cost for Job T687 is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculation to 2 decimal places)
Answer:
$1960
Explanation:
The computation of the total cost is shown below:
Total variable overhead estimated is
= (4 × 31400)
= $125600
Now
total overhead estimated is
= Total variable overhead estimated + Total fixed overhead estimated
= $125600 + 219800
= $345400
Now predetermined overhead rate is
= $345400 ÷ 31400
= $11 per machine hour
Now total overhead applied is
= (11 × 20)
= $220
So, total job cost is
= Direct material + Direct labor + Total overhead
= (580+1160+220)
= $1960
Fowler, Inc., just paid a dividend of $2.60 per share on its stock. The dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate of 5.75 percent per year, indefinitely. Assume investors require a return of 12 percent on this stock.
a. What is the current price?
b. What will the price be in four years and in sixteen years?
Answer:
a. Current price = $43.99
b. We have:
Price in four years = $52.03
Price in sixteen years = $101.76
Explanation:
a. What is the current price?
Using the Gordon Growth Model formula, we have:
Current price = (Dividend just paid * (100% + Dividend growth rate)) / (Rate of return – Dividend growth rate) = ($2.60 * (100% + 5.75%)) / (12% - 5.75%) = $43.99
b. What will the price be in four years and in sixteen years?
Using the Gordon Growth Model formula with an adjustment for number of years, we have:
Price in four years = (Dividend just paid * (100% + Dividend growth rate)^Number of years) / (Rate of return – Dividend growth rate) = ($2.60 * (100% + 5.75%)^4) / (12% - 5.75%) = $52.03
Price in sixteen years = (Dividend just paid * (100% + Dividend growth rate)^Number of years) / (Rate of return – Dividend growth rate) = ($2.60 * (100% + 5.75%)^16) / (12% - 5.75%) = $101.76

Suppose we have the following information concerning the printed magazine and digital magazine subscription markets:
Printed Magazine Subscription Price0=$20 Digital Magazine Subscription Quantity0=216 Printed Magazine Subscription
Price1=$13.40 Digital Magazine Subscription Quantity1=208 Question:
What is the cross-price elasticity of demand between printed and digital magazine subscriptions?
Answer:
Cross-price elasticity of demand between printed and digital magazine subscriptions is 8.91.
Explanation:
Percentage change in price of Printed Magazine Subscription = ((Printed Magazine Subscription Price1 - Printed Magazine Subscription Price0) / Printed Magazine Subscription Price0) * 100 = (($13.40 - $20) / $20) * 100 = -33%
Percentage change in quantity of Digital Magazine Subscription Quantity = ((Digital Magazine Subscription Quantity1 - Digital Magazine Subscription Quantity0) / Digital Magazine Subscription Quantity0) * 100 = ((208 - 216) / 216) * 100 = -3.7037037037037%
Cross-price elasticity of demand between printed and digital magazine subscriptions = Percentage change in price of Printed Magazine Subscription / Percentage change in quantity of Digital Magazine Subscription Quantity = -33% / -3.7037037037037% = 8.91
Note: The relationship between printed and digital magazine subscriptions is that they are substitutes because the cross-price elasticity between them is positive. That is, an increase in the price of printed digital magazine makes consumer to switch to and buy more of digital magazine which is a substitute.
