Compute the payback period for each of these two separate investments:

a. A new operating system for an existing machine is expected to cost $290,000 and have a useful life of four years. The system yields an incremental after-tax income of $83,653 each year after deducting its straight-line depreciation. The predicted salvage value of the system is $11,000.
b. A machine costs $200,000, has a $15,000 salvage value, is expected to last eleven years, and will generate an after-tax income of $46,000 per year after straight-line depreciation.

Answers

Answer:

1.89 years

3.18 years

Explanation:

Payback calculates the amount of time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from it cumulative cash flows

Payback period = Amount invested / cash flow

Cash flow = net income + depreciation

Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

(290,000 -11,000) / 4 = 69,750

Cash flow = $83,653 + 69,750 = 153,403

Payback = $290,000 / 153,403 = 1.89

(200,000 - 15,000) / 11 = 16,818.18

Cash flow = $46,000 +  16,818.18 = 62,818.18

Payback = 200,000 / 62,818.18 = 3.18

The fund has 49,000 shares and liabilities of $124,000. Assume the fund is sold with a front-end load of 2.5 percent. What is the offering price of the fund

Answers

Answer: $49.81

Explanation:

The offering price is calculated as:

= NAV per share / (100 - front-end load)

NAV per share = (Value - liabilities) / Number of shares

= [ ( 12,000 * 86) + (32,000 * 15) + (3,500 * 69) + (75,000 * 10) - 124,000] / 49,000 mutual fund shares

= 2,379,500 / 49,000

= $48.56

Offering price = 48.56 / (100 - 2.5%)

= $49.81

If a firm has invested in corporate bonds, it may engage in a financial futures contract in order to protect itself from :___________

a. declining interest rates.
b. rising interest rates.
c. inflation.
d. changes in hedging activities.

Answers

Answer:

b. rising interest rates.

Explanation:

A bond can be defined as a debt or fixed investment security, in which a bondholder (creditor or investor) loans an amount of money to the bond issuer (government or corporations) for a specific period of time.

Generally, the bond issuer is expected to return the principal at maturity with an agreed upon interest to the bondholder, which is payable at fixed intervals.

The par value of a bond is its face value and it comprises of its total dollar amount as well as its maturity value. Also, the par value of a bond gives the basis on which periodic interest is paid. Thus, a bond is issued at par value when the market rate of interest is the same as the contract rate of interest. This simply means that, a bond would be issued at par (face) value when the bond's stated rated is significantly equal to the effective or market interest rate on the specific date it was issued.

In Economics, bonds could either be issued at discount or premium.

Generally, if a business firm has invested in corporate bonds, it may engage in a financial futures contract in order to protect itself from rising interest rates.

Suppose that a firm currently produces 100 units using 10 units of K and 14 units of labor per day. The wage rate is $100 and the rental rate is $150 per day. The cost to produce this output is

Answers

If average household income increases by 20%, from $50,000 to $60,000 per year, the quantity of rooms demanded at the Triple Sevens from rooms per night to rooms per night. Therefore, the income elasticity of demand is , meaning that hotel rooms at the Triple Sevens are

Answers

Answer:

Therefore, the income elasticity of demand is 0.83, meaning that hotel rooms at the Triple Sevens are normal goods and necessities.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete as some data in it are missing. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

If average household income increases by 20%, from $50,000 to $60,000 per year, the quantity of rooms demanded at the Triple Sevens rises from 300 rooms per night to 350 rooms per night. Therefore, the income elasticity of demand is __________, meaning that hotel rooms at the Triple Sevens are__________.

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

Percentage change in income = 20%

Percentage change in quantity of rooms demanded = ((350 - 300) / 300) * 100 = 16.67%

Income elasticity of demand = Percentage change in quantity of rooms demanded / Percentage change in income = 16.67% / 20% = 0.83

Since the income elasticity of demand is positive but less than one, this implies that hotel rooms at the Triple Sevens are normal goods and necessities.

Therefore, the income elasticity of demand is 0.83, meaning that hotel rooms at the Triple Sevens are normal goods and necessities.

A health club has 3 employees who work on lead generation. Each employee contacts leads 20 hours a week and is paid $24 per hour. Each employee contacts an average of 210 leads a week. Approximately 8% of the leads become members and pay a onetime fee of $100. Material costs are $180 per week, and overhead costs are $1,000 per week. a. Calculate the multifactor productivity for this operation in fees generated per dollar of input

Answers

Answer:

0.64 fees generated per dollar of input

Explanation:

Fees generated per week = Average number of leads * Leads % conversion to members * One time fee per lead

Fees generated per week = 210 * 8% * $100

Fees generated per week = $1,680

Overhead cost = $1,000 per week

Material cost = $180 per week

Labor cost = Number of employees * Hours per week * Wage per hour = 3 * 20 * $24 = $1,440

Multifactor productivity = Fees generated per week/(Overhead cost + Material cost + Labor cost)

Multifactor productivity = $1,680 / ($1,000 + $180 + $1,440)

Multifactor productivity = $1,680 / $2,620

Multifactor productivity = 0.6412214

Multifactor productivity = 0.64 fees generated per dollar of input

Layton Corp. has a $2,000 par value bond outstanding with a coupon rate of 4.6 percent paid semiannually and 13 years to maturity. The yield to maturity of the bond is 3.8 percent. What is the dollar price of the bond

Answers

Answer:

Bond Price​= $2,162.94

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Par value= $2,000

YTM= 0.038/2= 0.019

Coupon= (0.046/2)*2,000= $46

Years to maturity= 13*2= 26

To calculate the price of the bond, we need to use the following formula:

Bond Price​= cupon*{[1 - (1+i)^-n] / i} + [face value/(1+i)^n]

Bond Price​= 46*{[1 - (1.019^-26)] / 0.019} + [2,000 / (1.019^26)]

Bond Price​= 936.91 + 1,226.03

Bond Price​= $2,162.94

Walters manufactures a specialty food product that can currently be sold for $21.50 per unit and has 19,500 units on hand. Alternatively, it can be further processed at a cost of $11,500 and converted into 11,500 units of Deluxe and 5,500 units of Super. The selling price of Deluxe and Super are $31.50 and $19.50, respectively. The incremental net income of processing further would be:

Answers

Answer:

the  incremental net income of processing further is $38,750

Explanation:

The computation of the incremental net income of processing further is given below:

= (11,500 units × $31.50 + 5,500 units × $19.50 - $11,500) - ($19,500 × $21.50)

= ($362,250 + $107,250 - $11,500) - $419,250

= $38,750

Hence, the  incremental net income of processing further is $38,750

Find the next year's net income for XYZ Inc. Next year, the sales grow by 25%. The current sales $300 million, and the current profit margin is 10% and you expect it to remain constant.

Answers

Answer: $37.5 million

Explanation:

The next year's net income for XYZ will be calculated as follows:

Current sales = $300 million

Current Profit margin = 10%

Sales Growth rate = 25%

The next year's sales will be:

= Current Year's Sales × (1 + Sales Growth rate)

= $300 million × (1 + 0.25)

= $300 million × 1.25

= $375 million

Next Year's Net Income will then be:

= $375 million × 10%

= $37.5 million

If IBM has a beta of 1.2 when the risk-free rate is 6% and the expected return on the market portfolio is 18%, the expected return on IBM is:

Answers

Answer:

20.4%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what the expected return on IBM is:

Using this formula

E(Ribm)=Risk-free rate+(Market portfolio -Risk-free rate) Beta

Let plug in the formula

E(Ribm) = 6% +(18%-6%)1.2

E(Ribm)=6%+12%(1.2)

E(Ribm)=6%+14.4%

E(Ribm)=20.4%

Therefore the expected return on IBM is:20.4%

Answer:

Indication of Liability Amount on the Balance Sheet at December 31, 2019:

Situation            Liability Amount

a.                        $220,000

b.                        $0

c.                        $3,100

d.                        $0

Explanation:

For Bloomington to recognize a liability or record it in its financial statements, the probability that an outflow of economic resources will occur in the future must be established.  Bloomington must also be able to reliably measure the amount of the liability.  These two conditions are satisfied in situations A and C.  For situation B, the contract is not in force as at December 31, 2019, since the drill press will be purchased in January, 2020.  Lastly, for situation D, the amount of the profit-sharing bonus cannot be reasonably and reliably ascertained because the amount to apply the 5% is not clear or known.

what is the primary benefit people receive in exchange for paying premiums to an insurance company

Answers

Answer:

The insurance company will pay for covered expenses

With premium rates from insurance companies, the overall protection is much more guaranteed than a regular, and perhaps the insurance will cover more than regular insurance.

A benefit that people receive in exchange for paying premiums is that insurance company B.will pay for covered expenses.

What is insurance?

The insurance can be regarded as a process of insuring one's property or life in case of danger or any future problems.

a) You have found the critical path
b) You have run out of crash time
c) You no longer have a linear relationship with costs
d) You have reached the minimum total cost
e) You have run out of crash costs

Answers

Answer:

a) You have found the critical path

Explanation:

The Time Cost Critical Path Method(CPM) in project management works by adding up/calculating duration of all tasks/activities in the project in order to find the longest time possible to complete the project. It is a method to estimate project duration using a flow chart that shows a network of tasks and estimated duration(start and finish times). The critical path is reached when project time is at the maximum/longest time of completion.
