What is the percentage of total current assets in terms of total assets for Walmart for the year of 2016

Answers

Answer:

42%

Explanation:

In simple words, Wallmart is the biggest retail chain facility in the world. Hence, it would be obvious that a high percentage of their total assets in value will be composed of the current assets in forms of inventory.

In 2016, their total current assets were about 42% of total assets, which is higher than majority of their peers. An increase in their turnover might be the reason behind such high ratio.

Cash flow in year 1 to 6 = 19,000

I = 14%

NPV = $4,332.01

Project Y

Cash flow in year 0 = -19000

Cash flow in year 1 to 5 = 0

Cash flow in year 6 =  $ 40,000

I = 14%

The terms 1/10 n/30 mean there is a discount of 1% available on the payment to be made in 10 days of the purchase. The net credit period is 30 days. As the payment is made within the discount period, hence the payment will be made net of discount.

Discount on Purchase = $4,000 x 1% = $40

Payment = Total amount due - Discount = $4,000 -$40 = $3,960

Green can claim business insurance premiums (regarded as business expenses by the IRS) and healthcare insurance premiums (regarded as medical expenses by the IRS) as deductions, but his personal life insurance premiums are considered as personal expenses.  They are not tax-deductible.  The IRS regards the payments for life insurance premiums as it regards the purchase of any other product or service for personal consumption.

You're trying to save to buy a new $180,000 Ferrari. You have $32,000 today that can be invested at your bank. The bank pays 5.0 percent annual interest on its accounts. How long will it be before you have enough to buy the car

Answers

Answer:

Given an annual interest rate of 5%, it will take 35.4 years to accumulate $180,000.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Future Value (FV)= $180,000

Present value (PV)= $32,000

Interest rate (i)= 5%

To calculate the number of years (n) to reach the objective, we need to use the following formula:

n= ln(FV/PV) / ln(1+i)  

n= ln(180,000/32,000) / ln(1.05)

n= 35.4

Given an annual interest rate of 5%, it will take 35.4 years to accumulate $180,000.

The spot price of silver is $12.75 per ounce. The storage costs are proportional and equal to 1.95% per ounce per annum continuously compounded. Assuming that interest rates are 9.40% per annum for all maturities, calculate the futures price of silver for delivery in 9 months. (Answer with two digits decimal accuracy. Example: 17.53.)

Answers

Answer:

Spot and Future Prices

The future price of the silver for delivery in 9 months is:

= $13.85.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Spot price of silver per ounce = $12.75

Storage costs per ounce per annum = 1.95% compounded continuously

Storage costs in 9 months = $0.19 ($12.75 (1.95% * 9/12)

Total cost = $12.94 ($12.75 + $0.19)

Interest rate = 9.4% per annum

Interest rate for 9 months = 7.05% (9.4%*9/12)

Future price of the silver for delivery in 9 months = $13.85 ($12.94 * 1.0705)

In November, the seafood department in a grocery store marked 250 8-pound cases of lobster tails down from their original price of $75 to $58. The November markdown was very successful, and all of the 8-pound cases of lobster tails were sold at $58 each. Calculate the total markdown dollars for the sale.

Answers

Answer:

Total mark down Dollars for sales =$4,250

Explanation:

The markdown is the discount given expressed as a percentage of the original sales price.

The total sales value at the original price = 250× 75 = 18,750

Discount per lobster in Dollars = 75-58 = $17

Mark down (%) = 17/75×100 = 22.67%

Total markdown Dollars for sales = 22.67%× 18,750= $4,250

Total mark down Dollars for sales =$4,250

On June 30, 2024, L. N. Bean issued $16 million of its 8% bonds for $14 million. The bonds were priced to yield 10%. Interest is payable semiannually on December 31 and July 1. If the effective interest method is used, how much bond interest expense should the company report for the 6 months ended December 31, 2024

Answers

Answer:

$700,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine how much bond interest expense should the company report for the 6 months ended December 31, 2024

Using this formula

Interest expense for the 6 months ended December 31, 2024 = Carrying value * Effective interest rate/2

Let plug in the formula

Interest expense for the 6 months ended December 31, 2024= $14,000,000 * 10% / 2

Interest expense for the 6 months ended December 31, 2024=$14,000,000*5%/2

Interest expense for the 6 months ended December 31, 2024= $700,000

Therefore the amount of bond interest expense that the company should report for the 6 months ended December 31, 2024 is $700,000

Remaining life = 9 years (10-1)

New yield rate = [Coupon rate + (Maturity value - Current price) / Useful life] / [0.6*Current price + 0.4*Maturity value]

New yield rate = [1,000*8% + (1,000-1,200) / 9] / [0.6*1,200 + 0.4*1,000]

New yield rate = $57.78 / $1,120

New yield rate = 0.0515893

New yield rate = 5.16%

Therefore, the new yield to maturity on the bond is 5.16%.

Missing word "(Assume a face value of $1,000 and annual coupon payments."

A hotel is deciding how many reservations to accept for major one-night event in Indianapolis. The hotel has 180 rooms available. Managers believe that 92 percent of those with a reservation will actually show up. An empty room costs the hotel $175 per room. However, if the hotel oversells the rooms, and more than 180 customers show up, the hotel will need to make other arrangements for these guests. The cost of placing these extra guests in other accomodations is $375 per room needed. How many rooms should the hotel sell for this particular night to minimize their costs? +xls

Answers

Answer:

Hotel A, Indianapolis

The number of rooms that the hotel should sell for this particular night to minimize their costs is:

= 196 rooms.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Hotel rooms available = 180

Expected percentage of reservations that will actually show up = 92%

Cost per empty room = $175

Cost per room for overbooking and placing extra guests in other accommodations = $375

The number of rooms to sell this particular night to minimize costs = 180/92% = 196 rooms

Booking 196 rooms will ensure that the maximum rooms are fully taken by the reservationists and the hotel can only incur a probable cost of $375 per overbooked guest.
