Times Interest Earned Ratio (TIER) = Earnings Before Interest & Taxes divided by Interest Expense
= $300,000/$$80,000 = 3.75 times
Explanation:
a) TVG Income Statement:
Revenue $3,000,000
Cost of goods sold 2,500,000
Gross profit $500,000
Depreciation 200,000
EBIT $300,000
Interest Expense 80,000

What's the present value of $4,500 discounted back 5 years if the appropriate interest rate is 4.5%, compounded semiannually?
Answer:
The present value = $3,602.30
Explanation:
To calculate this, we will use the formula for calculating the future value for an amount invested, compounded semiannually at a certain interest rate. This is done as follows:
[tex]FV\ =\ PV(1+\frac{r}{n})^{(n\times t)}\\[/tex]
where:
FV = Future value = $4,500
PV = Present value = ??
r = interest rate = 4.5% = 4.5/100 = 0.045
n = number of compunding period per year = semiannually = 2
t = time = 5
[tex]4,500\ =\ PV(1+\frac{0.045}{2})^{(2\times 5)}\\\\4,500 = PV( 1+0.0225)^{10}\\4,500 = PV(1.0225)^{10}\\4,500 = PV (1.249203)\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 1.249203\ and\ making\ PV\ the\ subject\ of\ the\ formula\\\PV = \frac{4,500}{1.249203} \\PV= 3,602.297[/tex]
Therefore, the present value = $3,602.30
Costs that are capitalized because they are expected to have future value are called product costs; costs that are expensed are called period costs. This classification is important because it affects the amount of costs expensed in the income statement and the amount of costs assigned to inventory on the balance sheet. Product costs are commonly made up of direct materials, direct labor, and overhead. Period costs include selling and administrative expenses.
A service company has which of the following costs
a. Direct Material
b. Overhead Costs
c. Product Costs
d. Expensed in the period incurred
Answer:
b. Overhead Costs
d. Expensed in the period incurred
Explanation:
-Direct material refers to the cost of the material used to manufacture a product.
-Overhead costs are the costs related to the operation of the business and they can't be assigned to a good or service.
-Product Costs are the costs to manufacture a product.
-Expensed in the period incurred are the period costs which are costs not related to the production of a good.
According to these definitions, a service company has the following costs: overhead costs and expensed in the period incurred because these are costs that are not related to the creation of a product.
On the other hand, the other options direct material and product costs are not right because these costs are directly related to products.
Yan Yan Corp. has a $3,000 par value bond outstanding with a coupon rate of 5.2 percent paid semiannually and 25 years to maturity. The yield to maturity on this bond is 4.8 percent. What is the price of the bond? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
$3,173.63
Explanation:
For computing the price of the bond we need to apply the present value i.e to be shown in the attachment
Given that,
Future value = $3,000
Rate of interest = 4.8% ÷ 2 = 2.4%
NPER = 25 years × 2 = 50 years
PMT = $3,000 × 5.2% ÷ 2 = $78
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)
So, after applying the above formula, the price of the bond is $3,713.63

Beta is Question 10 options: a) A measure of the volatility of returns on an individual stock relative to the market b) Relates the risk-return trade-offs of individual assets to the market returns c) The computed cost of capital determined by multiplying the cost of each item in the optimal capital structure by its weighted presentation in the overall capital structure and summing up the results d) The cost of the last dollar of funds raised
Answer: a) A measure of the volatility of returns on an individual stock relative to the market
Explanation:
Beta is indeed a measure of the volatility of returns on an individual stock relative to the return on the market as a whole.
It is used in the Capital Asset Pricing Model which enables for the calculation of the stock's expected return.
Market Beta is always 1. Therefore betas measure shows how much more or less volatile than the market return, the stock return is. For instance, a beta of 2 means that the stock's returns are twice as volatile as the markets and a beta of 0.5 means the returns are only half as volatile as the market.

Green Inc. made no adjusting entry for accrued and unpaid employee wages of $38,000 on December 31. This error would Multiple Choice Understate assets by $38,000. Overstate net income by $38,000. Understate net income by $38,000. Have no effect on net income.
Answer:
The answer is B. Overstate net income by $38,000.
Explanation:
Accrued expense is an expense that has been enjoyed or incurred but has been paid for. Examples of an accrued expense are unpaid wages/salary, unpaid electricity bill etc.
Usually, the adjusting entry for accrued expense is to debit the expense and debit increases expense while credit decreases it. Since there is no adjusting entry, that means no expense is being recognized on the income statement for this transaction. Hence, the net income increases (overstated). because ordinarily expense reduces net income.
Break-even EBIT (with and without taxes). Alpha Company is looking at two different capital structures, one an all-equity firm and the other a levered firm with $ million of debt financing at % interest. The all-equity firm will have a value of $ million and shares outstanding. The levered firm will have shares outstanding. a. Find the break-even EBIT for Alpha Company using EPS if there are no corporate taxes. b. Find the break-even EBIT for Alpha Company using EPS if the corporate tax rate is %. c. What do you notice about these two break-even EBITs for Alpha Company? a. What is the break-even EBIT for Alpha Company using EPS if there are no corporate taxes?
Complete Question:
Alpha company is looking at two different capital structures, one an all-equity firm and the other a leverages firm with $2 million of debt financing at 8% interest. The all-equity firm will have a value of $4 million and 400,000 shares outstanding. The leveraged firm will have 200,000 shares outstanding.
a. Find the break even EBIT for Alpha company using EPS if there are no corporate taxes.
b.Find the break even EBIT for Alpha company using EPS if the corporate tax rate is 30%
c. What do you notice about these two break-even EBITs for Alpha company?
Answer:
Alpha Company
a. Break-even EBIT, using EPS without taxes:
= (EBIT - Interest 1) * (1 - taxes)/No. of shares = (EBIT - Interest 2) * (1 - taxes)/No. of shares
With alternative 1, there are no taxes, so:
= (EBIT - Interest 1)/No. of shares = EBIT - Interest 2)/No. of shares
= (EBIT - 0)/400,000 = EBIT - ($2,000,000 x 8%)/200,000
= (EBIT/400,000( = (EBIT - $160,000)/200,000
cross-multiplying:
EBIT200,000 = EBIT$64,000,000,000
dividing by 200,000:
EBIT = $64,000,000,000/200,000
EBIT = $320,000
b. Break-even EBIT, using EPS with taxes:
= (EBIT - Interest 1) * (1 - taxes)/No. of shares = (EBIT - Interest 2) * (1 - taxes)/No. of shares
= {(EBIT - $0) * (1 - 0.30)}/400,000 = {(EBIT - $160,000) * (1 - 0.30)}/200,000
= EBIT/400,000 = (EBIT - $112,000)/200,000
cross-multiplying:
= EBIT 200,000 = EBIT $44,800,000,000
EBIT = $44,800,000,000/200,000
= $224,000
c. The two break-even EBITs are not the same. When there are taxes, the break-even EBIT is $224,000, less by $96,000.
Explanation:
a) Data:
Alternative 1: All Equity:
No. of shares = 400,000
Value of shares = $4,000,000
Debt = $0
Interest on Debt = $0
Alternative 2: Equity + Debt:
No. of shares = 200,000
Value of shares = $2,000,000
Debt = $2,000,000
Interest on Debt = 8% or $160,000
b) Alpha's break-even EBIT is the point when the EBIT under alternative 1 are equal to the EBIT under alternative 2. This implies that under these given alternative financing options, the earnings before interest and taxes are before no matter the alternative chosen.
Bronco Corporation discovered these errors in August of Year 3:
Year Depreciation Overstated Prepaid Expense Omitted
1 $2500 $3000
2 4000 2000
Assume all current items are two months in duration. Net Income for Year 2 was $18,000. Assume all errors are discovered in August of Year #3. The Year #2 books are closed. The net effect on Year #3 Beginning Retained Earnings caused by the August Year #3 correcting journal entries was:
a. $5,500
b. $6,500
c. $6,000
d. $8,500
e. $4,500
Answer:
e. $4,500
Explanation:
Year Depreciation overstated Prepaid expense omitted
1 $2,500 $3,000
2 $4,000 $2,000
Year 2's net income = net income (year 2) + overstated depreciation (year 2) + omitted prepaid expenses (year 1) - omitted prepaid expenses (year 2) = $18,000 + $4,000 + $3,000 - $2,000 = $23,000
This means that year 2's net income was understated by $5,000.
But year 1's net income was overstated by = $2,500 - $3,000 = -$500.
The adjustment on the retained earnings account should be $5,000 - $500 = $4,500
Gabriele Enterprises has bonds on the market making annual payments, with eleven years to maturity, a par value of $1,000, and selling for $982. At this price, the bonds yield 7.6 percent.
Required:
What must the coupon rate be on the bonds?
Answer:
The answer is 7.35 percent
Explanation:
N(Number of periods) = 11years
I/Y(Yield to maturity) = 7.6 percent
PV(present value or market price) = $982
PMT( coupon payment) = ?
FV( Future value or par value) = $1,000.
We are using a Financial calculator for this.
N= 11; I/Y = 7.6; PV = -$982; FV= $1,000; CPT PV= $73.52
Therefore, coupon rate is ($73.52/$1,000) x 100 percent
=7.35 percent
Booher Book Stores has a beta of 1.0. The yield on a 3-month T-bill is 3% and the yield on a 10-year T-bond is 6%. The market risk premium is 4.5%, and the return on an average stock in the market last year was 10.5%. What is the estimated cost of common equity using the CAPM
Answer:
Cost of equity = 10.5%
Explanation:
The capital asset pricing model is a risk-based model. Here, the return on equity is dependent on the level of reaction of the the equity 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 (long-term i.e 10 year treasury bill rate), β= Beta, Rm= Return on market., Ke- Return on equity (cost of equity)
This model can be used to work out the cost of equity as follows:
Ke= Rf + β (Rm-Rf)
Rf- 6%, β= 1.0, Rm- 10.5, E(r)- ?
Ke = 6% + 1.0× (10.5 -6)% = 10.5%
Ke = 10.5%
Cost of equity = 10.5%
Heather Smith is considering a bond investment in Locklear Airlines. The $1,000 par value bonds have a quoted annual interest rate of 8 percent and the interest is paid semiannually. The yield to maturity on the bonds is 12 percent annual interest. There are 10 years to maturity.Required:Compute the price of the bonds based on semiannual analysis.
Answer:
Price of bond = $770.60
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 for Heather Smith can be worked out as follows:
Step 1
PV of interest payments
Semi annul interest payment
= 8%× 1000 × 1/2 =40
Semi-annual yield = 12/2 = 6% per six months
Total period to maturity (in months) = (2 ×10) = 20 periods
PV of interest =
40 × (1- (1+0.06)^(-20)/0.06) = 458.796
Step 2
PV of Redemption Value
= 1,000 × (1.06)^(-20) = 311.80
Step 3 :Price of bond
= 458.796 + 311.80 = 770.60
Price of bond = $770.60
Domingo Corporation uses the weighted...
Domingo Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. This month, the beginning inventory in the first processing department consisted of 2,300 units. The costs and percentage completion of these units in beginning inventory were:
Cost Percent Complete
Materials costs $7,400 50%
Conversion costs $3,600 20%
A total of 8,700 units were started and 8,000 units were transferred to the second processing department during the month. The following costs were incurred in the first processing department during the month:
Cost
Materials costs $160,600
Conversion costs $122,300
The ending inventory was 85% complete with respect to materials and 75% complete with respect to conversion costs. How many units are in ending work in process inventory in the first processing department at the end of the month?
a. 700.
b. 1,700.
c. 6.400.
d. 2,700.
Answer:
3,000 units
Explanation:
Calculation for How many units are in ending work in process inventory
Using this formula
Ending work in process units =Beginning work in process units + Units started into production - Transferred to the second processing department units
Let plug in the formula
Ending work in process units= 2,300 units + 8,700 units - 8,000 units
Ending work in process units= 3,000 units
Therefore 3,000 units are in the ending work in process inventory in the first processing department at the end of the month.
Division A had ROI of 15% last year. The manager of Division A is considering an additional investment for the coming year. What step will the manager likely choose to take
Answer: c.Reject the investment if it returns less than 15% ROI.
Explanation:
Additional investments should yield incremental returns if they are to be accepted. In the previous year, Division A had an Return on Investment of 15%, when an additional investment is being considered, it must bring in more than that 15% if it is to be accepted.
Therefore, if an investment is to give a less than 15% ROI, it should be rejected as it is not bringing additional returns for the Division.

growth rate up to year 5 = 20%
ROE growth rate starting year 6 = 15%
dividend growth rate starting year 6 = 15% x (1 - 40%) = 9%
cost of equity = 15%
horizon value at year 5 = $11.45 / (15% - 9%) = $190.83
current intrinsic value per stock = $190.83 / 1.15⁵ = $94.88
intrinsic price in 1 year = $190.83 / 1.15⁴ = $109.11
The estimate of DEQS’s intrinsic value per share is $94.88. Also, in 1 year, the intrinsic price of the stocks will increase to $109.11.

A stock had returns of 15.51 percent, 22.47 percent, −8.68 percent, and 9.43 percent over four of the past five years. The arithmetic average return over the five years was 12.71 percent. What was the stock return for the missing year?
Answer:
24.82%
Explanation:
Arithmetic average = sum of observations / number of observations
Let x = the stock return for year 5
12.71 % = (15.51% + 22.47% −8.68% + 9.43 + x) /5
Multiply both sides by 5
63.55% = (5.51% + 22.47% −8.68% + 9.43 + x)
63.55% = 38.73% + x
x = 63.55% - 38.73% = 24.82%
Jackson Industries uses a standard cost system in which direct materials inventory is carried at standard cost. Jackson has established the following standards for one unit of product: Standard Quantity or Hours Standard Price or Rate Standard Cost Per Unit Direct materials 6 pounds $4.30 per pound $25.80 Direct labor 2.40 hours $5.00 per hour $12.00 During May, Jackson purchased 145,600 pounds of direct material at a total cost of $655,200. The total factory wages for May were $258,800, 90 percent of which were for direct labor. Jackson manufactured 21,000 units of product during May using 122,800 pounds of direct material and 50,900 direct labor-hours. The price variance for the direct material acquired by Jackson Industries during May is:
Answer:
Direct material price variance= $29,120 unfavorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Standard: Direct materials 6 pounds $4.30 per pound $25.80
Actual= Jackson purchased 145,600 pounds of direct material at a total cost of $655,200.
To calculate the direct material price variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Actual price= 655,200/145,600= $4.5
Direct material price variance= (4.3 - 4.5)*145,600
Direct material price variance= $29,120 unfavorable

Cash (w.6) 4,320
(To record second interest payment)
Workings:
w.1: Bond payable = Cash - Premium on Bonds Payable = $111,671 - $8,271
w.2: Premium on Bonds Payable = January 1 Unamortized Premium - June 30 Unamortized Premium = $8,271 - $7,444 = $827
w.3: Cash = $108,000 * 8% * (6 / 12) = $4,320
w.4: Interest expense = w.3 - w.2 = $4,320 - $827 = $3.493
w.5: Premium on Bonds Payable = June 30 1 Unamortized Premium - December 31 Unamortized Premium = $7,444 - $6,617 = $827
w.6: Cash = $108,000 * 8% * (6 / 12) = $4,320
w.7: Interest expense = w.6 - w.5 = $4,320 - $827 = $3,493
2. At an oral auction for used car, half of all bidders have a value of $1,500 and half have a value of $1,900. What is the expected winning bid if there are three bidders
Answer: $1,700
Explanation:
The expected winning bid is the weighted average of the 2 different bids.
Half of the bids are for $1,500 so weight of $1,500 is 0.5.
Half of the bids are for $1,900 so weight of $1,900 is 0.5.
Expected Winning bid = (1,500 * 0.5) + ( 1,900 * 0.5)
= 750 + 950
= $1,700

Net sales$688,500 $450,000 Cost of goods sold 337,364 133,200 Determine the 2016 and 2017 trend percents for net sales using 2016 as the base year.
Answer:
Trend- % change in sales = 34.64%
Explanation:
Trend analysis entails determining the performance of a business over time by comparing its performance data from one period to another. The aim of trend analysis is to identify the behavior of a set of ratios over a period of time by comparing them across different years.
To determine the trend for a particular data, we use the formula below
% Change in variable =
(Current year figure - Previous year figure)/Previous year figure × 100
DATA
Current year figure for sales (2017) - 450,000
Previous year figure for sale (2016) - 688,500
% change in sales = (450,000 -688,500)/688,500 × 100 = 34.64%
% change in sales = 34.64%
This implies that the company made sales in 2017 which is 34.64% less than that made in 2016
Onslow Co. purchases a used machine for $178,000 cash on January 2 and readies it for use the next day at a $2,840 cost. On January 3, it is installed on a required operating platform costing $1,160, and it is further readied for operations. The company predicts the machine will be used for six years and have a $14,000 salvage value. Depreciation is to be charged on a straight-line basis. On December 31, at the end of its fifth year in operations, it is disposed of.Required:Prepare journal entries to record the machine's disposal under each of the following separate assumptions: a. It is sold for $22,000 cash. b. It is sold for $88,000 cash. c. It is destroyed in a fire and the insurance company pays $32,500 cash to settle the loss claim.
Answer:
All the requirements are solved below
Explanation:
Purchase = $178,000
Ready to use cost = $2,480
Installation cost = $1,160
Salvage value = $14,000
Depreciation method = Straight line
Useful life = 6 years
Solution
Requirement A If sold for $22,000
Entry DEBIT CREDIT
Cash $22,000
Accumulated depreciation $140,000
Profit/loss on disposal $20,000
Machinery $182,000
Requirement B If sold for $88,000
Entry DEBIT CREDIT
Cash $82,000
Accumulated depreciation $140,000
Profit/loss on disposal $40,000
Machinery $182,000
Requirement C If destroyed in fire and insurance company paid $32,500
Entry DEBIT CREDIT
Cash $30,000
Accumulated depreciation $140,000

Accumulated depreciation = 140,000
MAD’s target capital structure is 60 percent debt and 40 percent equity. The yield to maturity on the company’s new debt will be 10 percent. MAD’s beta is 1.7, the risk free rate is 4% and the required market return is 12%. If the company’s tax rate is 30 percent, then which of the projects will be accepted?
Answer: D) Projects A and C
Explanation:
The projects to be taken should have a higher IRR than the company's Weighted Average Cost of Capital.
Cost of Equity
= Risk free rate + beta( market return - risk free rate)
= 4% + 1.7 (12% - 4%)
= 17.6%
After tax cost of debt
= Yield ( 1 - tax rate)
= 10% * ( 1 - 30%)
= 7%
WACC = (Weight of debt * after tax cost of debt) + (weight of equity * cost of equity)
= (0.6 * 7% ) + ( 0.4 * 17.6%)
= 4.2% + 7.04%
= 11.24%
Projects A and C both have IRR higher than the company's WACC and so should be accepted.
