3. If another project has a cost of $10,000 and has expected life of 8 years and it will generate $3000 a year should you accept the project if your boss says the cost of capital is 5%?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1a, 6.67 years

b. 8.9 years

c. NPV = $2,575.77

d. IRR = 10.45%

2. it should be accepted

3. it should be accepted.

Explanation:

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

Payback period = $10,000 / $1500 = 6.67 years

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

discounted cash flow in year 1 = $1500 / 1.06 = $1415.09

discounted cash flow in year 2 = $1500 / 1.06^2 = $1,334.99

discounted cash flow in year 3 = $1500 / 1.06^3 = $1,259.43

discounted cash flow in year 4 = $1500 / 1.06^4  = $1,188.14

discounted cash flow in year 5 = $1500 / 1.06 ^5 = $1,120.89

discounted cash flow in year 6 = $1500 / 1.06^6 = $1,057.44

discounted cash flow in year 7 = $1500 / 1.06^7 = $997.59

discounted cash flow in year 8 = $941.12

please check the attached image on how the discounted payback period was calculated

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

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

NPV and IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator  

Cash flow in year 0 = $-10,000

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 12 = $1,500

I = 6%

NPV = $2,575.77

IRR = 10.45%

The project should be accepted because the NPV is positive, this indicates that the project is profitable. Also, the IRR is greater than the discount rate, so the project should be accepted.

to determine if the project should be accepted, the NPV  of the project should be determined.

Cash flow in year 0 = $-10,000

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 8 = $3,000

I = 5%

NPV = $13,165.20

the project should be accepted because the NPV is positive

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.

Answer:

Quiet enjoyment

Explanation:

Quiet enjoyment is a clause in lease agreement that provides a guarantee that the tenant will occupy the property in peace without interference from any other claimants or the landlord.

For example this clause protects a tenant from being removed from a property by someone of higher rank or authority like an agent.

The law recognises quiet enjoyment even when it is not stated explicitly in a lease agreement. It is assumed that every tenant has a right to quiet enjoyment

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

Explain whether each of the following events shifts the short-run aggregate-supply curve, the aggregate-demand curve, both, and neither. Households decide to save a larger share of their income. Florida orange groves suffer a prolonged period of below-freezing temperatures. Increased job opportunities overseas cause many people to leave the country.

Answers

Answer:

1. Households decide to save a larger share of their income. - Aggregate-Demand Curve

If households in the economy started saving more of their money then this would leave less money for consumption which is one of the components of Aggregate Demand. When Consumption decreases so also will Aggregate Demand thereby shifting the Aggregate-Demand Curve to the left.

2. Florida orange groves suffer a prolonged period of below-freezing temperatures. - Short-run Aggregate Supply Curve

With the Florida Orange Groves suffering from below freezing temperatures, the oranges will not grow as much leading to a poor harvest. This will reduce the supply of oranges in the economy and shift the short-run Aggregate supply curve left.

3. Increased job opportunities overseas cause many people to leave the country. Both Aggregate-Demand Curve and Short-run Aggregate Supply Curve.

With less people in the Economy, there will be less people spending on goods and services which will cause the Aggregate Demand curve to shift to the left.

Also with people leaving the country, the labor force will decrease which will mean that less people are available to produce goods and services so the short-run Aggregate supply curve will shift left.

a. $91,561
b. $47,773
c. $43,673
d. $84,788

Answers

Answer:

The Present Value of the bond at the market rate = $90,438.36  

Explanation:

The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).  

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV  

The value of bond can be worked out as follows:  

Step 1  

PV of interest payments  

Semi annul interest payment  

= 10% × 81000 × 1/2 = 4050

Semi-annual yield = 8%/2= 4 % per six months  

Total period to maturity (in months)  

= (2 × 8) = 16 periods (Note the bond term is 8 yeras)  

PV of interest = 4050 × (1-1.04^(-16))/0.04 = 47,191.79

Step 2  

PV of Redemption Value  

Assuming a redemption value equals to the nominal value =

PV of RV = 81,000 × 1.04^-16 =  43,246.56  

Step 3 :Total Present Value

Total prent value =  43,246.56  + 47,191.79721  =  90,438.36

The Present Value of the bond at the market rate = $90,438.36  

E Corporation produces a single product. The cost of producing and selling a single unit of this product at the company's normal activity level of 44,000 units per month is as follows:

Per Unit
Direct materials $44.60
Direct labor $8.50
Variable manufacturing overhead $1.50
Fixed manufacturing overhead $18.10
Variable selling & administrative expense $2.60
Fixed selling & administrative expense $12.00

The normal selling price of the product is $94.10 per unit. An order has been received from an overseas customer for 2,400 units to be delivered this month at a special discounted price. This order would not change the total amount of the company's fixed costs. The variable selling and administrative expense would be $1.60 less per unit on this order than on normal sales.

Suppose there is ample idle capacity to produce the units required by the overseas customer and the special discounted price on the special order is $80.40 per unit. The monthly financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of accepting this special order should be:_______

Answers

Answer:

financial advantage for accepting special order = $59,520

Explanation:

relevant production costs for special order (2,400 units):

direct materials $44.60

direct labor $8.50

variable manufacturing overhead $1.50

variable selling & administrative expense $1

total costs per unit = $55.60

total revenue from special order = 2,400 x $80.40 = $192,960

relevant costs associated to special order = 2,400 x $55.60 = ($133,440)

financial advantage for accepting special order = $59,520

Variable costs per unit manufacturing labor wages $21.00; supplies used in production $9.00; packaging cost $2.75, warranty cost $4
Required: Compute total costs to be incurred for a week with 2,770 units of activity. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Total cost___________

Answers

Answer:

Total cost= $123,525

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs: supervisor's salary $1,200; factory rent $2,900

Mixed costs: utilities $1,700+ $5.75 per unit

Variable costs per unit manufacturing labor wages $21.00; supplies used in production $9.00; packaging cost $2.75, warranty cost $4

We need to determine the total cost of 2,770 units:

Total variable cost= 5.75*2,770 + 21*2,770 + 9*2,770 + 2.75*2,770 + 4*2,770

Total variable cost= $117,725

Total fixed costs= 1,200 + 2,900 + 1,700= $5,800

Total cost= 117,725 + 5,800= $123,525

Inefficient output and price, few choices for consumers, and rent seeking are all problems associated with

Answers

Answer: c. Monopolies.

Explanation:

Because Monopolies have no competition, the main incentive to be efficient is missing. This leads to a situation where Monopolies are not as efficient as they are to be in production as well as price because they will charge a price that does not match the optimal quantity associated with that price.

With no or few competition in the market, consumers will not have a lot of choices on entities to source the good from and there is a problem of Rent seeking with Monopolies as well. Rent seeking for monopolies occurs when they charge people above the price they are to charge if they were in a competitive market. They are therefore making more money than they should at the expense of customers.

Steel Tariffs Appear to Have Backfired on Bush

When a high tariff is placed on steel imports, U.S. steel producers produce______steel and they pay a ________price.
A. less; higher
B. more; lower
C. less; lower
D. more; higher

Answers

Answer:

Steel industry in the United States of America has had its up and down over the years. this is especially going by the fact that it is cheaper to import steel from outside America than to buy those produced in U.S. However, high tariff on steel import would enable the domestic steel producers to meet their obligation as well as recoup their investments in the steel industry in U.S.

For example, most construction based organisation would prefer to buy from domestic steel producer if the price and tariff of imported ones makes it extremely difficult to purchase.

On the other-hand, the high tariff placed on steel import could also harm steel users due to the fact that, the quality of steel which they buy from outside U.S would no longer be available to them.

Also, they would be forced to buy at whatever price from domestic producers whether they had need for the steel or not due to high tariff on imported ones.

When a high tariff is placed on steel imports, U.S. steel producers produce more steel and they pay a higher price.

Given money demand, by how much would the Moola central bank need to change the money supply to close the output gap?

Answers

Answer:

A. 5%

B. $20

C.-$20

D. $100 increase

E.$2

Explanation:

a. Calculation for the equilibrium interest rate in Moola

When we look at the table we would actually see that Money supply amount of $500 equal the Money demand amount of $500 which means that the equilibrium interest rate will be 5 percent.

b. The level of investment at the equilibrium interest rate.

Since we have 5% as the equilibrium interest rate which means that the investment at the equilibrium interest rate will be $20.

c. If we look at table we are going to see that the potential GDP of the amount of $330 and the actual GDP of the amount of $350 are beside the interest rate of 5 percent and we could as well see that actual GDP is lower than potential GDP which means that there is negative recessionary GDP gap.

Hence,

Recessionary GDP gap= Actual GDP - Potential GDP

Recessional GDP gap=Actual GDP $330- Potential GDP=-$20

Therefore-$20 will be the recessionary GDP gap.

d. In order for us to eliminate the recessionary gap, so that actual GDP amount can equal potential GDP , this means we have to increase the money supply to the amount of $600 which will inturn lead to an increase of $100

e. Calculation for the expenditure multiplier,

Expenditure multiplier=(Potential GDP $350-Actual GDP $330)/($20-$10)

Expenditure multiplier=$20/10

Expenditure multiplier=$2

Therefore the Expenditure multiplier will be $2

The question is incomplete as the table is not given.

In economics, demand and supply are the most important factors for any business to analyze the market. There is an inverse relationship between demand and supply. If the demand is high and supply is low then there will be higher prices of the goods.

The Moola central bank needs to change the supply of money by increasing $100 to close the output gap.

Reason:

In order to make the actual GDP amount to be equal to the potential GDP, that means by increasing the money supply of $600 will give the effect of $100 for covering the gap.

The statement of cash flow involves 3 kinds of activities mentioned below:

1. Operating activities: Many transactions are based that affect the working capital following net income. It would increase the growth in current assets and a decrease in current liabilities, whereas adding the decrease in current properties and an increase in current liabilities.

This should mitigate any work capital shifts. Furthermore, the cost of depreciation is attributed to the net income and the loss on the sale of assets is attributed while the benefit on the sale of assets is deducted

2. Investing: it monitors activities involving the acquisition and selling of long-term assets. The purchase is cash outflow while the selling is cash inflow

3. Financing activities: it monitors activities that impact on the shareholders' long-term debt and equity balance. Share issue is cash inflow whereas cash outflows are redemption and dividend.

How much will be in the Prepaid Insurance account at the end of the year, after the adjusting entries have been prepared and posted

Answers

Answer: $8,400

Explanation:

The $9,600 is for 2 years in advance. This can be apportioned per month at a rate of;

= 9,600/24

= $400 per month.

October to the end of the year is 3 months so;

= 400 * 3

= $1,200 will be recorded for the year.

Prepaid Insurance will therefore reduce to;

= 9,600 - 1,200

= $8,400

An investor buys a total of 360 shares-year bond with a $1,000 face value for $800. The bond's coupon rate is 8% and interest payments are made semi-annually. Waht are the bond's yield to maturity and effective annual yield?

Answers

Answer:

YTM (Annual( = 10.13%

Effective Annual Yield =10.40%  

Explanation:

In order to calculate Yield to maturity, we need to use yield to maturity formula.

Formula: Yield to maturity = [C +(F – P)/n]/(F + P)/2

Where,

C = Coupon amount

F = Face value

n = number of periods

P = Current price

Data

C =  1000 x 8 % = 80

C (6months) = 80 x 6/12 = 40

F = $1000

n = 30 years

P = $800

Solution

YTM = 40 + (1000 – 800/30)/(1000 + 800)/2

YTM = 40 + (200/30)/(1800/2 )

YTM = 40 +( 200/30)/900

YTM = 5.068 semiannual

YTM (Annual( = 10.13%

Effective Annual Yield = [tex](\frac{1+0.1014}{2})^{2-1}[/tex]

Effective Annual Yield =10.40%

a) Project A
b) Project B
c) Project A and B have the same ranking
d) Cannot calculate a payback period without a discount rate

Answers

Answer: b) Project B

Explanation:

Payback period works by checking how long it will take a project to pay back the initial amount invested in it. Project A.

Project A

Payback Period = Year before Payback happens + Amount left till payback/Cash inflow in year of payback

= Time 1 + Time 2

= 4,000 + 3,000

= $7,000

This amount is not enough to cover the investment of $10,000 so the investment will be paid in Time 3 and remains $3,000.

= 2 + 3,000/10,000

= 2.3 Times

Project B

= Time 1 + Time 2

= 3,000 + 2,000

= $5,000

At the end of Time 2, Project B has paid off its initial investment of $5,000. Its Payback period is 2 Times. This is lower than Project A so this project will rank higher.

Labor productivity growth can be attributed to: a. improvement in technology. b. a decline in university attendance. c. an increase in population growth. d. a decline in the physical capital per worker.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is A. improvement in technology

Explanation:

Labor productivity growth is not relevant to a decline in university attendance.

Applying the Malthusianism theory, an increase in population growth can't lead to labor productivity growth because while that population growth is potentially exponential, the growth of resources is linear.

Finally, the physical capital per worker is the quantity of equipment and input resources that are used to produce output goods and services. It has no direct influence to the labor productivity growth.

Answers

Answer:

Hello your question is incomplete below is the missing part and the needed diagram

suppose John is shopping and has $20 to spend on hand sanitizer. He can go with Germ-X (G) at $1 per fluid ounce (pG=1), or he can purchase purell (P) at $1.25 per fluid ounce (Pp=1.25). His utility function for the two different hand sanitizers is as follows:

U = G +1.1P

where G and P are measured in fluid ounces.

Solve the consumer’s problem for John’s optimal demand for Germ-X and Purell. (You should find actual numbers representing the quantity of Germ-X chosen and the quantity of purell chosen

ANSWER:  The solution =  (Germ-x,Purell ) = (20,0).

Explanation:

The consumers problem for John's optimal demand for Germ-x  and Purell as seen in the diagram can solved by John going maximizing his utility given the constraint of the budget,

that means that John will purchase/spend the constrained budget of ($20) on Germ-x  since the unit price of Germ X is at $1 while Purell's unit price is at $1.25 per fluid ounce

Delta Insurance Company has a surplus-share treaty with Eversafe Reinsurance. Delta has a retention limit of $200,000, and nine lines of insurance are ceded to Eversafe. How much will Eversafe pay if a $1,600,000 building insured by Delta suffers an 40 precent loss? 1. A) $600,000 2. B) $700,000 3. C) $720,000 4. D) $800,000

Answers

Answer:

Delta is responsible for insuring $200,000 / $1,600,000 = 1/8 of the building

Eversafe is responsible for 1 - 1/8 = 7/8

the loss = $1,600,000 x 40% = $640,000

Delta will pay 1/8 x $640,000 = $80,000

Eversafe will pay $640,000 - $80,000 = $560,000

in order for Eversafe to pay:

$600,000, the total loss = $685,714, or 42.86% of the building$700,000, the total loss = $800,000, or 50% of the building$720,000, the total loss = $822,857, or 51.43% of the building$800,000, the total loss = $914,286, or 57.14% of the building

This year Burchard Company sold 37,000 units of its only product for $16.40 per unit. Manufacturing and selling the product required $122,000 of fixed manufacturing costs and $182,000 of the fixed selling and administrative costs. It?s per unit variable costs follow.

Material $4.20
Direct labor (paid on the basis of completed units) 3.20
Variable overhead costs 0.42
Variable selling and administrative costs 0.22
Next year the company will use new material, which will reduce material costs by 50% and direct labor costs by 50% and will not affect product quality or marketability. Management is considering an increase in the unit selling price to reduce the number of units sold because the factory's output is nearing its annual output capacity of 42,000 units. Two plans are being considered. Under plan 1, the company will keep the selling price at the current level and sell the same volume as last year. This plan will increase income because of the reduced costs of using the new material. Under plan 2, the company will increase the selling price by 20%. This plan will decrease unit sales volume by 5%. Under both plans 1 and 2, the total fixed costs and the variable costs per unit for overhead and for selling and administrative costs will remain the same.

Hence, the first option is correct

Barb bought a house with 20% down and the rest financed by a 30-year mortgage with monthly payments calculated at a nominal annual rate of interest 8.4% compounded monthly. She notices that one-third of the way through the mortgage she will still owe 200,000. Determine the purchase price of the house.

Answers

Answer:

$282,706

Explanation:

Calculation to Determine the purchase price of the house

First step

In order for us to determine the purchase price of the house we would be using TVM Calculation to find the PMT

Hence,

PMT =

PV = 200,000

FV = 0

N = 240

I = 0.084/12

Thus,PMT = $1,723.01

The Second step will be to Calculate the Loan Amount Using TVM Calculation,

PV =

FV = 0

PMT = -1,723.01

N = 360

I = 0.084/12

Thus, PV = $226,164.98

Last step is to Determine the purchase price of the house

Using this formula

Purchase price=PV/(100%-20% down)

Let plug in the formula

Purchase price =226,164.98/(0.80)

Purchase price = $282,706

Therefore the purchase price of the house will be $282,706

A stock has a beta of 1.28, the expected return on the market is 12 percent, and the risk-free rate is 4.5 percent. What must the expected return on this stock be? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

Expected return on stock =14.1 0%

Explanation:

The Capital Asset pricing Model (CAPM) can be used to determined the expected return on the stock.  

According to the Capital Asset pricing Model the expected return on stock  is dependent on the level of reaction of the the stock 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 (treasury bill rate), β= Beta, Rm= Return on market, Ke-return on stock

Using this model, we can work out the return on stock as follows:

DATA

Ke-?

Rf- 4.5%

β-1.2 8

Rm- 12%

Ke = 4.5% + 1.28× (12-4.5)%=14.1 0%

Expected return on stock =14.1 0%

Unemployment numbers drop as more jobless Americans find positions in local businesses. Which determinant of aggregate demand causes the change

Answers

Answer: Consumer Spending

Explanation:

As more Americans find jobs, they will be able to earn an income. As they do so they will be able to spend more on goods and services in the economy thereby increasing Consumption spending which is the largest determinant of Aggregate Demand.

As a result of this increase in Consumption, Aggregate demand will change by increasing as well.

Select the correct answer. My mom is always repeating the same old joke: if your friends all jumped off a cliff, would you jump, too? Of course not. But I get what she means. She's talking about peer pressure. Teenagers like us live with it every day. Pretty much every kid wants to be liked, to have friends, to be popular. No one wants people to think they aren't cool. While peer pressure is tough, giving in to it and getting in trouble is tougher. But teenagers are still learning to make good decisions. Like this one time my friend Harold wanted to take his dad's prized Jeep Grand Cherokee for a drive. Harold was 13, and he'd never driven a car before. But he figured he knew enough about operating a motor vehicle just by watching his parents drive. When his parents were out of town one weekend, Harold invited me and some of our friends over to his house so he could take us for a drive. I said, "Not me," because I knew it was a stupid thing to do. I told him and everybody else what I thought of the idea. (Driving isn't easy. It took my big brother weeks to get the hang of it.)
