Answer:
[tex]R = U + {1}{2}A\sigma^2[/tex]
Explanation:
Given
[tex]U = R - \frac{1}{2}A\sigma^2[/tex]
Required
Solve for R
We have:
[tex]U = R - {1}{2}A\sigma^2[/tex]
Add [tex]{1}{2}A\sigma^2[/tex] to both sides
[tex]U + {1}{2}A\sigma^2 = R - {1}{2}A\sigma^2 + {1}{2}A\sigma^2[/tex]
Evaluate like terms
[tex]U + {1}{2}A\sigma^2 = R[/tex]
Hence:
[tex]R = U + {1}{2}A\sigma^2[/tex]

You are bullish on Telecom stock. The current market price is $62 per share, and you have $6,200 of your own to invest. You borrow an additional $6,200 from your broker at an interest rate of 7.6% per year and invest $12,400 in the stock. a. What will be your rate of return if the price of Telecom stock goes up by 9% during the next year? (Ignore the expected dividend.) (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Telecom Stock
If the price of the Telecom stock goes up by 9% during the next year, your rate of return will be:
= 10.4%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Current market price = $62 per share
Investment in stock = $12,400
Margin account = $6,200
Loan = $6,200 ($12,400 - $6,200)
Units of stock bought on margin = 200 ($12,400/$62)
Margin account interest rate = 7.6%
Growth rate of stock price = 9%
Expected market price of the stock = $67.58 ($62 * 1.09)
Expected value of stock = $13,516 (200 * $67.58)
Interest on loan = $471.20 ($6,200 * 7.6%)
Principal & loan amount $12,400
Return on the stock = $644.80
Rate of return = 10.4% ($644.80/$6,200 * 100)
mwakilembe Co.ltd is a micro business which buys and sell toys on 1 January 2020 the company predicted its annual sales to be 1000000 units. Each order would cost the company TZS 80 . The company pays TZS 160 per unit of a product. Estimated inventory carrying costs are 25 percent of inventory value. Establish the EOQ units.
Answer:
2000
Explanation:
Given:
Annual DEMAND, D = 1,000,000
Holding cost, H = (I * C)
Cost per order, S = 80
Unit cost, C = 160
Holding cost (%) = 25% = 0.25
The Economic order quantity :
EOQ = √[(2 * D * S) / (I * C)]
EOQ = √[(2 * 1000000 * 80) / (0.25 * 160)]
EOQ = √[(160000000) / 40]
EOQ = √4000000
EOQ = 2000
TD Bank has the following assets and liabilities as of year-end. All assets and liabilities are currently priced at par and pay interest annually.
Assets Amount($millions) Annual Rate Liabilities Amount ($ millions) Annual Rate
2-years loans $40 8% 3-years GIC $60 7%
3-years loans $60 8% 5-years term deposit $30 6%
Equity $10
Total $100 Total $100
Required:
a. What is the change in the value of its assets if all interest rates decrease by 1 percent?
b. What is the change in the value of its liabilities if all interest rates decrease by 1 percent?
c. What is the effect on the value of the Fi's equity if interest rates decrease by 1 percent?
Answer:
a) Change of $2.6 million
b) Change of $3.3 million.
c) Decrease in equity by $0.7 million
Explanation:
a) Determine change in value of assets when interest rates decrease by 1%
i) 2-year loans
Principal Amount = $40 , Annual rate = 8%
Value of asset = P + interest = $40 + 6.4 = $46.4
Interest earned = PRT = (40 * 8 * 2) / 100 = $6.4
Given that Annual rate = 8 - 1 = 7%
value of asset = P + interest = $45.6
interest = ( 40 * 7 * 2 ) / 100 = $5.6
change in 2-year loan assets = 46.4 - 45.6 = $0.8 million
ii) 3-year loan assets
Principal amount = $60 , annual rate = 8%
Value of asset = P + interest = 60 + 14.4 = $74.4
interest earned = PRT = ( 60 * 8 * 3 ) / 100 = $14.4
When Annual rate = 8 - 1 = 7%
value of asset = P + interest = 60 + 12.6 = $72.6
interest = ( 60 * 7 * 3 ) / 100 = $12.6
Change in 3-years loan assets = 74.4 - 72.6 = $1.8
∴Total change in value of assets = 1.8 + 0.8 = $2.6 million
B) Change in value of liabilities when interest rates fall by 1%
i) 3-years GIC liability
Principal amount = $60 , interest rate = 7%
Value of liability = P + interest = $72.6
interest = ( 60 * 7 * 3 ) / 100 = $12.6
When interest rate = 7 - 1 = 6%
Interest = ( 60 * 6 *3 ) / 100 = $10.8
value = 60 + 10.8 = $70.8
change in 3 years GIC liability = 72.6 - 70.8 = $1.8
ii) 5 - years term deposit liability
principal amount = $30 , interest rate = 6%
value of liability = P + interest accrued = 30 + 9 = $39
Interest accrued = ( 30 * 6 * 5 ) / 100 = $9
when Interest rate = 6 - 1 = 5%
value of liability = P + interest accrued = 30 + 7.5 = $37.5
interest accrued = ( 30 * 5 * 5 ) / 100 = $7.5
change in 5-years term deposit liability = 39 - 37.5 = $1.5
∴ Total change in value of liabilities = 1.8 + 1.5 = $3.3 million
c) Effect on the value of FI's equity is that there will be an DECRESE in equity because of the Increase in Liability value more than increase in asset value
Equity = asset - liability
= 2.6 - 3.3 = -$0.7 million

The most recent financial statements for Alexander Co. are shown here: Income Statement Balance Sheet Sales $ 45,650 Current assets $ 19,020 Long-term debt $ 37,970 Costs 36,450 Fixed assets 69,250 Equity 50,300 Taxable income $ 9,200 Total $ 88,270 Total $ 88,270 Taxes (24%) 2,208 Net income $ 6,992 Assets and costs are proportional to sales. The company maintains a constant 35 percent dividend payout ratio and a constant debt-equity ratio. What is the maximum dollar increase in sales that can be sustained assuming no new equity is issued
Answer:
$4,533.05
Explanation:
Return on equity (ROE) = Net income / Equity
Return on equity (ROE) = $6,992 / $50,300
Return on equity (ROE) = 13.9%
Retention ratio = 1 - Dividend payout ratio
Retention ratio = 1 - 35%
Retention ratio = 65%
Sustainable growth rate = [13.9%*65%] / [1 - 13.9%*65%]
Sustainable growth rate = 0.09035 / 0.90965
Sustainable growth rate =0.09932392
Sustainable growth rate = 9.93%
Maximum dollar increase = Sales * Sustainable growth rate
Maximum dollar increase = $45,650 * 9.93%
Maximum dollar increase = $4,533.05

Tutor, Inc. (TI) provides instructional services to its customers. TI charges $330 per student. The Company expects to serve 1,150 students during the coming year. All of the Company's expenses are fixed. Total annual fixed cost are projected to be $125,000. If the estimated number of students increase by 20%, net income will increase by: (Round your final answer to the nearest percent.)
Answer:
Net income will increase by 30%.
Explanation:
Projected total fixed cost = $125,000
Fee per student = $330
Percentage increase in the old number of students = 20%
Old number of students = 1,150
New number of students = Old number of students * (100% + Percentage increase in the old number of students) = 1,150 * (100% + 20%) = 1,380
Old revenue = Fee per student * Old number of students = $330 * 1,150 = $379,500
New revenue = Fee per student * New number of students = $330 * 1,380 = $455,400
Old net income = Old revenue - Projected total fixed cost = $379,500 - $125,000 = $254,500
New net income = New revenue - Projected total fixed cost = $455,400 - $125,000 = $330,400
Therefore, we have:
Percentage increase in net income = ((New net income – Old net income) / Old net income) * 100 = (($330,400 - $254,500) / $254,500) * 100 = 30%
Therefore, net income will increase by 30%.

Explanation:
Danielle has loaned $500 to Richard at a 4% annual rate of interest for one year. If the inflation rate is constant at 7% for the entire term of the loan, how much purchasing power is lost after Richard repays the loan in full
Answer:
$15
Explanation:
In order to calculate the purchasing power lost the following formulae will be used:
Purchasing power lost = Loaned amount * (inflation rate - nominal rate)
Purchasing power lost = $500 * (0.07 - 0.04)
Purchasing power lost = $500 * 0.03
Purchasing power lost = $15
Hence, the purchasing power lost after Richard repays the loan in full is $15.

Dr bank 5,000
Cr rent revenue 5,000

A dispute between labor and management at an automobile production plant has effectively stopped production for 2 months and has cost the company a tremendous amount of money. Despite the use of third parties, neither side can agree on a solution, but they do agree that the dispute must be settled soon. How should this dispute at this stage be settled
Answer:
Arbitration

The arbitration process will be between labor and management as an impartial third party (arbitrator or arbitral tribunal) takes charge of the process. Once both parties have agreed to arbitraueb, the arbitrator then proffers powerful ways of ensuring dispute resolution in such a way that a mutual agreement is reached by both labor and management. Even though proferred solution shouldn't be compulsorily adopted by the conflicting parties.
If the company's return on assets is 13% and the industry average is 10%, the company's return on assets ratio is _____ the industry average.
Answer: better than
Explanation:
Return on assets refers to a profitability ratio which shows the amount of profit that a company will make from its assets. The return on assets is calculated by dividing the net income of the business by the total assets.
Since a company's return on assets is 13% and the industry average is 10%, then we can infer that the company's return on assets ratio is better than the industry average.
Martha B's has total assets of $1,810. These assets are expected to increase in value to either $1,900 or $2,400 by next year. The company has a pure discount bond outstanding with a face value of $2,000. This bond matures in one year. Currently, U.S. Treasury bills are yielding 5.5 percent. What is the value of the equity in this firm
Answer:
$7.24
Explanation:
PV at the risk free rate = $1,900 / (1 + 0.055)
PV at the risk free rate = $1,900 / 1.055
PV at the risk free rate = $1,800.95
Number of options needed = (2,400 - 1,900) / (400 - 0)
Number of options needed = 500 / 400
Number of options needed = 1.25
Total assets = (No of options needed*Value of equity) + Present value at the risk free rate. Let Value of equity be C0
$1,810 = (1.25*C0) + $1,800.95
$1,810 - $1,800.95 = 1.25*C0
C0 = $9.05 / 1.25
C0 = $7.24
So, the Value of equity in this firm is $7.24.
