Japanese tourists come to experience the magic of Disney World and other attractions around Orlando, Florida. These tourists are:___________
[A] contributing to the United States’ deficit balance of payments.
[B] helping increase the balance of payments for Japan.
[C] exporting products and services back to Japan.
[D] further decreasing the United States’ balance of payments.
[E] helping the United States’ balance of payments.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Option E, helping the United States’ balance of payments, is the right answer.

Explanation:

Option “E” is the correct answer because the balance of payment records all the transactions that occurred between the home country and the rest of the word. Therefore, if the foreign tourist spends in the country that means they are helping the balance of payment. This will increase the country’s surplus and the ability to pay the expenses because tourism is helping to generate revenue.

Kiley Electronics is considering a project that has the following cash flow data. What is the project's IRR? Note that a project's IRR can be less than the WACC (and even negative), in which case it will be rejected.

Answers

Answer:

13.31%

Explanation:

some information is missing:

Year        Cash flows

0              −$1,100

1                  $450

2                 $470

3                 $490

the easiest way to calculate the IRR is by using a financial calculator, IRR = 13.31%

but if we don't have one at hand, the IRR is the discount rate at which a project's NPV = 0

1,100 = 450/(1 + r) + 470/(1 + r)² + 490/(1 + r)³

to simplify the formula we must use trial and error:

since we already know the real IRR, I will start with a close number like 10%

1,100 = 450/(1 + 0.1) + 470/(1 + 0.1)² + 490/(1 + 0.1)³

1,100 = 409.09 + 388.43 + 368.14

1,100 ≠ 1,165.66

since the NPV is still positive, we must increase the discount rate. following the example we can use 12%

1,100 = 450/(1 + 0.12) + 470/(1 + 0.12)² + 490/(1 + 0.12)³

1,100 = 401.79 + 374.68 + 348.77

1,100 ≠ 1,125.24

we must increase the discount rate even more to 13%

1,100 = 450/(1 + 0.13) + 470/(1 + 0.13)² + 490/(1 + 0.13)³

1,100 = 398.23 + 368.08 + 339.59

1,100 ≠ 1,105.90

we keep increasing the discount rate to 14%

1,100 = 450/(1 + 0.14) + 470/(1 + 0.14)² + 490/(1 + 0.14)³

1,100 = 394.74 + 361.65 + 330.74

1,100 ≠ 1,087.13

since now the NPV is negative, the discount rate must be between 13-14%

we continue this way until we finally reach 13.31%

It will cost you $785,000 to install the equipment necessary to start production costs will be $415,000 per year, and your variable production costs should be $10.05 per carton. You also need an initial investment in net working capitalof $68,000.If your tax rate is 24 percent and you require a return of 12 percent on your investment, whar bid price should you submit?

Answers

Answer:

$15.66 per carton

Explanation:

118,000 cartons of machine screws

equipment cost $785,000

depreciation per year = $785,000 / 5 = $157,000

fixed manufacturing costs $415,000 per year

variable costs per carton = $10.05 x 118,000 = $1,185,900

initial investment in net working capital $68,000

tax rate 24%

discount rate 12%

price per carton?

initial investment = -$853,000

CF₁ = [(R - $1,600,000 - $157,000) x 0.76] + $157,000 = 0.76R - $1,178,320

CF₂ = [(R - $1,600,000 - $157,000) x 0.76] + $157,000 = 0.76R - $1,178,320

CF₃ = [(R - $1,600,000 - $157,000) x 0.76] + $157,000 = 0.76R - $1,178,320

CF₄ = [(R - $1,600,000 - $157,000) x 0.76] + $157,000 = 0.76R - $1,178,320

CF₅ = [(R - $1,600,000 - $157,000) x 0.76] + $157,000 + $68,000 = 0.76R + $1,110,320

$853,000 = (0.76R - $1,178,320) / 1.12 + (0.76R - $1,178,320) / 1.12² + (0.76R - $1,178,320) / 1.12³ + (0.76R - $1,178,320) / 1.12⁴ + (0.76R + $1,110,320 ) / 1.12⁵ = 0.6786R - $1,052,071.43 + 0.6059R - $939,349.49 + 0.541R - $838,704.90 + 0.483R - $748,943.66 + 0.4312R + $630,025.39

$853,000 = 2.7397R - $4,209,094.87

$5,062,094.87 = 2.7397R

R = $5,062,094.87 / 2.7397 = $1,847,682.18

total revenue = $1,847,682.18

revenue per carton = $1,847,682.18 / 118,000 = $15.6583 = $15.66

The Year 1 selling expense budget for Apple Corporation is as follows:
Budgeted sales $275,000
Selling costs:
Delivery expenses $ 2,750
Commission expenses 5,500
Advertising expenses 2,500
Office expenses 1,500
Miscellaneous expenses 5,300
Total $17,550
Delivery and commission expenses vary proportionally with budgeted sales in dollars. Advertising and office expenses are fixed. Miscellaneous expenses include $2,000 of fixed costs. The rest varies with budgeted sales in dollars. The budgeted sales for Year 2 are $330,000.
What will be the value of miscellaneous expenses in the Year 2 selling expense budget?
A. $6,200
B. $4,200
C. $3,600
D. $3,960

Answers

Answer:

$5,960

Explanation:

Fixed portion of Miscellaneous expenses = $2,000

Variable portion of Miscellaneous expenses = ($5,300 - $2,000) / $275,000

= $3,300 / $275,000

= $0.012 of sales

Miscellaneous expenses in the Year 2 selling expense budget = (Budgeted sales * Variable portion) + Fixed portion

= ($330,000 * $0.012) + $2,000

=  $3,960 + $2,000

= $5,960

"Net income for the period was $200,000. The retained earnings account had a beginning balance of $25,000. If the company paid dividends of $20,000 during the year, what is the ending balance in retained earnings?"

Answers

Answer:

Retained earning balance at the end would be = $205,000

Explanation:

Retained earnings at the end = Retained earning at the beginning + Net income - Dividend paid

The net income would increase the balance of the retained earnings hence it is added to it.

The Dividend paid would be a cash outflow which would reduce the balance of the retained earnings, hence it is deducted from it.

So applying this to the question, we have

Retained earning balance at the end would be:

25,000 + 200,000 - 20,000 = $205,000

Retained earning balance at the end would be = $205,000

perline, inc., has balance sheet equity of $6.2 million.At the same time, the income statement shows net income of $948600. The company paid dividends of $493272 and has 100000 shares of stock outstanding. If the benchmark PE ratio is 26, what is the target stock price in one year?

Answers

Answer:

The target stock price in one year is $264.75

Explanation:

We first calculate the ROE as below

ROE= Earnings / Book value of Equity

ROE= $948,600 / $6,200,000

ROE= 0.153

The payout ratio is:

b=  Dividend / Net income

b = $493,272 / $948,600

b = 0.52

So the sustainable growth rate is:

g = ROE * (1-b)

g = 0.153 * (1-0.52)

g = 0.153 * 0.48

g = 0.07344

The earning in the first year are

EPS1 = $948,600 / 100,000  * (1 + 0.07344)

EPS1 = $9.486 * 1.07344

EPS1 = $10.1827

According to the benchmark PE ratio, the target stock price in one year is

Price = EPS1 * 26

Price = $10.1827 * 26

Price = $264.75

Answers

Answer:

$81, $75, and $69

a. Market value of existing shares = 215000 * $81 = $17415000

   Value of New shares issued = 48000 * $81 =        $3888000

                                                                                     $21,303,000

Price after issue of new shares = 21,303,000 / (215000 + 48000)

= 21,303,000 / 263,000

= $81

Conclusion: No changes ($0 per share

b. Market value of existing shares = 215000 * $81 = $17415000

   Value of New shares issued = 48000 * $75 =        $3600000

                                                                                     $21015000

Price after issue of new shares = 21015000 / (215000 + 48000)

= 21,015,000  / 263,000

= $79.90

Conclusion: There is a decrease in amount (81 - 79.90) = $1.10 per share

c. Market value of existing shares = 215000 * $81 = $17415000

   Value of New shares issued = 48000 * $69 =        $3312000

                                                                                     $20,727,000

Price after issue of new shares = 20,727,000 / (215000 + 48000)

= 20,727,000 / 263,000

= $78.81

Conclusion: There is a decrease in amount (81 - 78.81) = $2.19 Per share

An assembly line with 17 tasks is to be balanced. The longest task is 2.4 minutes, and the total time for all tasks is 18 minutes. The line will operate for 450 minutes per day.Required:a. What are the minimum and maximum cycle times? b. What range of daily output is theoretically possible for the line? c. What is the minimum number of workstations needed if the maximum output rate is to be sought?d. What cycle time will provide an output rate of 125 units per day?

Answers

Answer

a)Minumum cycle time = 2.4 Minutes And Maximum cycle time = 18 Minutes

b)=187.5 units per day and 25 units per day

c) 8 workstation

d)2.6min/cycle

Explanation:

Given:

output rate = 125 units per day

Operating time= 450 minutes per day

What are the minimum and maximum cycle times?

Minimum Cycle time = duration of the longest task

Therefore,Minimum cycle time = 2.4 minutes

Maximum cycle time = addition of the task

Maximum Cycle Time = 18 minutes

Therefore, Minumum cycle time = 2.4 Minutes And Maximum cycle time = 18 Minutes

B)B)What range of daily output is theoretically possible for the line?

Range of daily output = Operating time / minimum Cycle time

At 2.4 minutes Cycletime

= 450/2.4

=187.5 units per day

At Cycle time 18 Minutes

= 450/18

Cycle time 18 minutes = 25 units per day

C)What is the minimum number of workstations needed if the maximum output rate is to be sought?

number of workstation=(D× summation of all task)/Operating time

number of workstation=(187.5*18)/450

= 7.5= 8 workstation

D)What cycle time will provide an output rate of 125 units per day?

cycle time= Operating time/output rate

=450/125

= 2.6min/cycle

Potential output: $8 trillion Actual output: $6 trillion Actual Deficit: $ 400 billion Tax Rate: 15% What is the structural deficit in 2010

Answers

Answer:

The structural budget in 2010 is $100 billion

Explanation:

Actual deficit = Government spending - Tax Revenue Collection  

i.e Actual deficit = G-T

T = (Tax rate) (Actual output)

$400 billion = G - (0.15)($6000 billion)

$400 billion = G - $900 billion

G =  $400 billion + $900 billion

G =  $1300 billion

Thus, Government spending is $1300 billion

Structural deficit = G - T'

T' = (Tax rate)(Potential output)

T' = (0.15)(8000 billion)

T' = $1200 billion

Structural deficit = G - T'

Structural deficit = $1300 billion - $1200 billion

Structural deficit = $100 billion

Thus, the structural budget in 2010 is $100 billion

Computer Corp. just paid a dividend of $0.75. If the firm's growth in dividends is expected to remain at a flat 3 percent forever, then what is the cost of equity capital for Computer Corp. if the price of its common shares is currently $12.00

Answers

Answer:

9.44%

Explanation:

According to the given situation, the computation of the cost of equity capital is shown below:-

Cost of equity capital = Dividend × (1 + Expected rate of return) ÷ Common shares + Expected rate of return

Now, we will put the values into the above formula.

= ($0.75 × (1.03) ÷ $12) + 0.03

= 0.0944

or

= 9.44%

Therefore for computing the cost of equity we simply applied the above formula.

Kemp Corporation manufactures a variety of parts for use in its product. The company has always produced all of the necessary parts for its product, including all of the electronic circuits. The company sells 18,000 units of its product per year. An outside supplier has offered to sell electronic circuits to the company for a cost of $40 per unit. To evaluate this offer, the company has gathered the following information relating to its own cost of producing the electronic circuits internally: Per Unit 18,000 Units per Year Direct materials $ 18 $ 324,000 Direct labor 9 162,000 Variable manufacturing overhead 2 36,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead, traceable 9 * 162,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead, allocated 12 216,000 Total cost $ 50 $ 900,000 *One-third supervisory salary; two-thirds depreciation of special equipment (no resale value). Suppose that if the electronic circuits were purchased, the division supervisor position could be eliminated. Fixed manufacturing overhead will be allocated to other products made by the company. Also, the company could use the freed production capacity to launch a new product. The segment margin of the new product would be $180,000 per year. Given this new assumption, how much would be the financial advantage of buying 18,000 electronic circuits from the outside supplier

Answers

Answer:

financial advantage of purchasing from outside vendor = $36,000

Explanation:

outside vendor offers 18,000 units at $40 per unit = $720,000

current production costs (for 18,000 units):

Direct materials $324,000 Direct labor $162,000 Variable manufacturing overhead $36,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead, traceable $162,000 ($54,000 avoidable)Fixed manufacturing overhead, allocated $216,000 (not avoidable)Total cost $900,000

total avoidable costs = $576,000

additional revenue generated by freed facilities = $180,000

financial advantage of purchasing from outside vendor = ($576,000 + $180,000) - $720,000 = $36,000

Explanation:

The New York Stock Exchange, NYSE Specialist (DMM) and Floor Trader system is the model for trading used by American Stock Exchange, AMEX (NYSE American) and Philadelphia Stock Exchange (PHLX).

However, National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations (NASDAQ) isn't modeled after the NYSE Specialist (DMM) and Floor Trader system, rather it is based on an all electronic market. Also, Better Alternative Trading System (BATS) started as an Electronic Communications Network (ECN) and as such is typically an all electronic market, which has transformed magnificently into an exchange according to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Hence, the American Stock Exchange, AMEX (NYSE American) and Philadelphia Stock Exchange (PHLX) uses a designated market maker (DMM) and Floor Trader system just like the New York Stock Exchange as their primary market maker.

Restricting imports Question 10 options: can protect United States jobs in the protected industry, which increases economic welfare of the country as a whole. can protect United States final goods and services in the protected industry and increase economic welfare of the country as a whole. can protect United States jobs in the protected industry but will also lead to reductions in U.S. output and income. can protect United States final goods and services in the protected industry and makes consumers better off.

Answers

Answer: can protect United States jobs in the protected industry but will also lead to reductions in U.S. output and income

Explanation:

Imports are the goods that are purchased and brought from another country into one's home country. Restricting imports is a way by which the government helps to protect the industries at home.

It should also be noted that restricting imports will lead to reductions in the United States output and income as other people in other countries might stop purchasing ones products as well and this will affect the income of the United States.

Answer:

C.  can protect United States jobs in the protected industry but will also lead to reductions in U.S. output and income.

Explanation:

Import restriction is a measure taken by some countries that want trade protectionism. They do this to limit importation of goods and services from foreign countries. To achieve this they may impose tariffs, quotas, develop policies, or give subsidies to the local producers, all in a bid to limit importation. In the United States, while restricting imports can protect jobs in the protected industries, it would also result to trade wars with other nations.

This is a situation where other countries reciprocate the import restriction. This would eventually result in a reduced Gross domestic product for the country and limited choices for the consumers who will want to settle with cheaper goods. A case is the situation between Japan and the United States

Kenny, Inc., is looking at setting up a new manufacturing plant in South Park. The company bought some land six years ago for $7.9 million in anticipation of using it as a warehouse and distribution site, but the company has since decided to rent facilities elsewhere. The land would net $10.7 million if it were sold today. The company now wants to build its new manufacturing plant on this land; the plant will cost $21.9 million to build, and the site requires $940,000 worth of grading before it is suitable for construction.

Required:
What is the proper cash flow amount to use as the initial investment in fixed assets when evaluating this project?

Answers

Answer:

$33,540,000

Explanation:

initial investment:

opportunity cost of land (resale price of land) = $10,700,000building cost of the facilities = $21,900,000other expenses related to the site (grading) = $940,000total $33,540,000

The purchase cost of the land is considered a sunk costs, since it is not relevant now. What is relevant is the price at which the land could be sold at the moment of starting the project.

Consider the following information on large-company stocks for a period of years. Series Arithmetic Mean Large-company stocks 12.1 % Inflation 3.4A. What was the arithmetic average annual return on large-company stocks in nominal terms?
B. What was the arithmetic average annual return on large-company stocks in real terms?

Answers

Answer:

a. 12.1 %

b. 8.41%

Explanation:

a. The arithmetic average annual return on large-company stocks in nominal terms is already stated in the table as 12.1%.

This is because it was not yet adjusted for inflation making it nominal.

b. The arithmetic average annual return on large-company stocks in real terms can be expressed by;

Real Return = [(1 + Nominal rate) / (1 + Inflation rate)] - 1

= (( 1 + 12.1%) / ( 1 + 3.4%)) - 1

= (1.121/1.034) - 1

= 1.0841 - 1

= 8.41%

After reading it write about whether or not you agree with the academic economic consensus that independent officials running the Federal Reserve are able to properly balance their dual mandate in a fair and balanced fashion with the needs of workers in one hand and the financial industry on the other. If you agree with the consensus view explain your reasons; or if you disagree and think that the officials are biased in favor of the financial industry explain your reasoning with some possible solutions to the problem. Write at least two paragraphs articulating your views.

Answers

Answer:

The Federal Reserve has been at times biased in favor of the financial industry, because they have often put inflation targeting above the need to reduce unemployment when executing monetary policy. Besides, the financial industry has often been rescued by massive loans from the Fed.

However, the Federal Reserve has also acted in favor of reducing unemployment, specially during recessions, by expanding the money supply through a policy known as quantitative easing.

In conclusion, we can say that the Fed tends to be biased in favor of the financial industry, but not at all times.

A firm issues $300 million in straight bonds at an original issue discount of 0.50% and a coupon rate of 7%. The firm pays fees of 2.0% on the face value of the bonds. The net amount of funds that the debt issue will provide for the firm is closest to which of the following?
A)$248,625,000
B)$263,250,000
C)$277,875,000
D)$292,500,000

Answers

Answer: $292,500,000

Explanation:

The following information can be derived from the question:

Issued bond = $300

Issue discount = 0.50%

Coupon rate = 7%.

Fees paid = 2.0%

The net amount of funds that the debt issue will provide for the firm will be:

= Issued bond price - Discount - Fees paid

= $300m - ($300m × 0.50%) - ($300m × 2.0%)

= $300m - $1.5m - $6m

= $300m - $7.5m

= $292.5 Million

One of the potential pitfalls of real options analysis is that managers may have the incentive and know-how to game the system.
a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

True

Explanation:

This is true and a pitfall because managers particularly those in investment businesses can take actions that benefit themselves or act based on self interests. This is because they are open to incentives and also have the know how so they can easily make changes. This is bad for real options analysis. It is an agency issue. These people act without even considering the interests of the organization or that of their employers.

Norris Co. has developed an improved version of its most popular product. To get this improvement to the market, will cost $48 million and will return an additional $13.5 million for 5 years in net cash flows. The firm's debt-equity ratio is .25, the cost of equity is 13 percent, the pretax cost of debt is 9 percent, and the tax rate is 30 percent. What is the net present value of this proposed project?

Answers

Answer:

NPV = $1.49  million

Explanation:

The NPV is the difference between the PV of cash inflows and the PV of cash outflows. A positive NPV implies a good investment decision and a negative figure implies the opposite.  

NPV of an investment:  

NPV = PV of Cash inflows - PV of cash outflow  

But we will need to work out the discount rate to be used for discounting the cash flows. Hence, we need to determine the cost of capital as follows:

Step 1: After-tax cost of debt

After tax cost of debt = pre-tax cost of debt × (1-tax rate rate)

                                 = 9%× (1--0.3)=6.3%

Step 2 : Weighted Average cost of capital (WACC)

WACC=( 0.25×6.3%) + (0.75× 13%) =11.325 %

Step 3:Net Present Value (NPV)

PV of cash inflow= (1- (1.11325^-5)/0.11325)× 13.5 = 49.49  million

Initial cost = $48 million

NPV = 49.49  million -  $48 million  =$1.49  million

NPV = $1.49  million

Assume Mrs. Kinsley has filed a suit against Kitchen Essential Products Inc. for the injuries that she sustained under the theory of strict product liability. Can Mrs. Kinsley prevail in a cause of action against Kitchen Essential Products Inc. under strict product liability.

Answers

Answer:

"strict liability" says that a defendant seller, distributor or manufacturer of a defective product can be liable to anyone injured by that product, regardless of whether the defendant did everything possible to make sure the defect never happened.

In the case of Mrs Kinsley against Kitchen Essential Products inc. for the injury she sustained, she will be able to prevail in a cause action against the company under strict product liability. Because, the accident happened as a result of the faulty product which she purchased from the Kitchen Essential Product Inc company.
