Answer:
If RUS > RUK, then E < F ( C )
Explanation:
RUS = annual risk free rate in united states
RUK = annual risk free rate in United kingdom
F = futures price of $/BP for 1 year
E = spot exchange rate for $/BP
To get a higher the future price
this conditions must be met
The annual risk free rate of the united states must be higher than the annual risk free rate of the united kingdom. if this condition is met then the the British pound will have a forward premium ( F ) > ( E )

Zolezzi Inc. is preparing its cash budget for March. The budgeted beginning cash balance is $27,000. Budgeted cash receipts total $104,000 and budgeted cash disbursements total $87,000. The desired ending cash balance is $70,000. The company can borrow up to $90,000 at any time from a local bank, with interest not due until the following month. Required: Prepare the company's cash budget for March in good form. Make sure to indicate what borrowing, if any, would be needed to attain the desired ending cash balance.
Answer:
Zolezzi Inc.
Cash budget for March
Amount in $'000
Opening balance 27
Add;
Cash receipts 104
Less;
Cash disbursements (87)
Ending balance 44
Amount to be borrowed 26
Desired ending balance 70
Explanation:
The cash budget a forecast of the expected movement in cash balance. This is as a result of expected cash receipts and disbursements and may be expressed mathematically as
opening cash balance + cash receipts - Cash disbursed = closing cash balance
27 + 104 - 87 = ending balance
Ending balance = 44
Desired ending balance = 70
Amount to be borrowed = 70 - 44
= 26
Beerbo purchased a patent from Mitter Lite Co. for $1,000,000 on January 1, 2018. At that time, the patent's useful life was 10 years, expiring on December 31, 2027. In early 2020, Beerbo determined that the economic benefits of the patent would not last longer than 4 more years (6 years from the date of acquisition). Given the revised useful life, Beerbo expects the useful life of the patent to expire on December 31, [a1]. (Input year; e.g. "2020") At the end of 2019 / beginning of 2020, what was the value / net book value of the patent in Beerbo's books
Answer:
$800,000
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
Beerbo expects patent's useful life to expire on Dec-31 2023.
At the beginning of 2020 / end of 2019, the value of the patent in Beerbo's book = $1,000,000 - ($1,000,000 ÷ 10×2))
= $800,000
Amortix patent year = 4
Patent amortization expense at the end of 2020 = $800,000 ÷ 4
=$200,000
The Baldwin Company currently has the following balances on their balance sheet: Total Assets $255,213 Total Liabilities $151,328 Retained Earnings $47,588 Suppose next year the Baldwin Company generates $44,200 in net profit, pays $12,000 in dividends, total assets increase by $55,000, and total liabilities remain unchanged. What will ending Baldwins balance in Common Stock be next year? Select: 1 $79,097 $509,129 $381,753 $143,497
Answer:
$79,097
Explanation:
The accounting equation shows the relationship between the elements of a balance sheet which are assets liabilities and equity. This may be expressed mathematically as
Assets = Liabilities + Equity
While assets include fixed assets, cash, inventories, account receivables etc, liabilities include accounts payable, loans payable, accrued expenses etc.
Equity which represents the amount owed to the owners of the business includes retained earnings (which is the accumulation of the net income/loss over the years less dividends paid) and common shares.
Hence in current year,
Total equity = $255,213 - $151,328
= $103,885
If retained earnings is $47,588 then common stock
= $103,885 - $47,588
= $56,297
Change to equity next year
= $55,000
Change to retained earnings
= $44,200 - $12,000
= $32,200
Hence change in common stock
= $55,000 - $32,200
= $22,800
Common stock balance
= $56,297 + $22,800
= $79,097

Mercury Company reports depreciation expense of $49,000 for Year 2. Also, equipment costing $168,000 was sold for its book value in Year 2. There were no other equipment purchases or sales during the year. The following selected information is available for Mercury Company from its comparative balance sheet. Compute the cash received from the sale of the equipment. At December 31 Year 2 Year 1 Equipment $ 655,000 $ 823,000 Accumulated Depreciation-Equipment 464,000 545,000 Multiple Choice $49,000. $87,000. $38,000. $81,000. $40,500.
Answer:
The cash received from sale is $38000
Explanation:
We first need to calculate the book value of the equipment that is sold.
Book value = Cost - Accumulated depreciation
The accumulated depreciation on the equipment sold can be calculated by calculating the change in overall accumulated depreciation. Using the following equation to calculate the closing balance of accumulated depreciation, we can calculate the accumulated depreciation for the equipment that is sold.
Closing balance = Opening balance + Depreciation expense for the year - Accumulated depreciation on the asset disposed
Let Accumulated depreciation on the asset disposed be x.
464000 = 545000 + 49000 - x
x = 594000 - 464000
x = 130000
Thus, the book value of the asset sold was,
Book value = 168000 - 130000 = $38000
As the asset is sold for its book value, the cash received from sale is also $38000
agpie Corporation uses the total cost method of product pricing. Below is cost information for the production and sale of 60,000 units of its sole product. Magpie desires a profit equal to a 25% return on invested assets of $700,000. Fixed factory overhead cost $38,700 Fixed selling and administrative costs 7,500 Variable direct materials cost per unit 4.60 Variable direct labor cost per unit 1.88 Variable factory overhead cost per unit 1.13 Variable selling and administrative cost per unit 4.50 The cost per unit for the production and sale of Magpie's product is
Answer:
$12.88
Explanation:
given information
units sold 60,000
desired profit = 25% x $700,000 = $175,000
fixed factory overhead = $38,700
fixed S&A = $7,500
direct materials per unit = $4.60
direct labor per unit = $1.88
variable overhead per unit = $1.13
variable S&A per unit = $4.50
the cost per unit:
direct materials per unit = $4.60direct labor per unit = $1.88variable overhead per unit = $1.13variable S&A per unit = $4.50fixed factory overhead = $38,700 / 60,000 = $0.645fixed S&A = $7,500 / 60,000 = $0.125total cost per unit = $12.88the desired profit = $2.92, so the selling price to achieve the desired profit should = $15.80
In its most recent financial statements, Del-Castillo Inc. reported $70 million of net income and $960 million of retained earnings. The previous retained earnings were $943 million. How much in dividends did the firm pay to shareholders during the year? Enter your answer in dollars. For example, an answer of $1.2 million should be entered as 1,200,000.
Answer:
$53,000,000
Explanation:
The amount of dividends paid by Del-Castillo Inc. can be ascertained using the retained earnings formula as follows:
retained earnings=net income+previous year retained earnings-dividends paid
retained earnings for current year is $960 million
net income is $70 million
previous year retained earnings were $943 million
dividends paid is unknown
dividends=net income+previous year retained earnings-current year retained earnings
dividends=$70 million+$943 million-$960 million
dividends=$53 million
An acquisition premium is the amount by which the price offered for an existing business exceeds the Select one: a. amount paid as a down payment to be held in escrow until closing. b. difference between the amount that was offered and the amount that is escrowed c. comparable value of similar companies within the same market. d. preacquisition market value of the target company e. fair market value of similar companies in the same geographic locale.
Answer:
d. pre-acquisition market value of the target company.
Explanation:
An acquisition premium is the amount by which the price offered for an existing business exceeds the pre-acquisition market value of the target company.
An acquisition premium gives the difference between the actual amount of money paid in acquiring a target firm and the estimated real value of obtaining the firm before the acquisition.
Acquisition premium are usually recorded on the balance sheet as "goodwill."
Exercise 24-5 Payback period computation; even cash flows LO P1 Compute the payback period for each of these two separate investments: A new operating system for an existing machine is expected to cost $520,000 and have a useful life of six years. The system yields an incremental after-tax income of $150,000 each year after deducting its straight-line depreciation. The predicted salvage value of the system is $10,000. A machine costs $380,000, has a $20,000 salvage value, is expected to last eight years, and will generate an after-tax income of $60,000 per year after straight-line depreciation.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the payback period is shown below:
1. Payback period = Initial investment ÷ Net cash flow
where,
Initial investment is $520,000
Net cash flow is = incremental after-tax income + depreciation expense
= $150,000 + $85,000
= $235,000
The depreciation expense is
= ($520,000 - $10,000) ÷ (6 years)
= $85,000
Now the payback period is
= $520,000 ÷ $235,000
= 2.21 years
2. Payback period = Initial investment ÷ Net cash flow
where,
Initial investment is $380,000
Net cash flow is = incremental after-tax income + depreciation expense
= $60,000 + $45,000
= $105,000
The depreciation expense is
= ($380,000 - $20,000) ÷ (8 years)
= $45,000
Now the payback period is
= $380,000 ÷ $105,000
= 3.62 years

Blue Sky Company’s 12/31/15 balance sheet reports assets of $6,000,000 and liabilities of $2,400,000. All of Blue Sky’s assets’ book values approximate their fair value, except for land, which has a fair value that is $360,000 greater than its book value. On 12/31/15, Horace Wimp Corporation paid $6,120,000 to acquire Blue Sky. What amount of goodwill should Horace Wimp record as a result of this purchase?
Answer:
$2,160,000
Explanation:
Goodwill is the amount of excess consideration payment over net asset value of acquiring company. It is the net value of consideration payment and Fair value of net assets.
To calculate goodwill first we need to determine fair value of assets and Liabilities.
Total Fair value of Assets = $6,000,000 + $360,000 = $6,360,000
Liabilities = $2,400,000
Net Asset value = Assets - Liability = $6,360,000 - $2,400,000 = $3,960,000
Goodwill = Consideration - Net Asset Value = $6,120,000 - $3,960,000 = $2,160,000

Assume that you are a retail customer. Use the information below to answer the following question. Bid Ask Borrowing Lending S0($/€) $1.42 = €1.00 $1.45 = €1.00 i$ 4.25% APR 4% APR F360($/€) $1.48 = €1.00 $1.50 = €1.00 i€ 3.10% APR 3% APR If you borrowed $1,000,000 for one year, how much money would you owe at maturity? A. $1,450,352 B. $1,042,500 C. € 1,024,500 D. $1,525,400
Answer:
$1,042,500.
Explanation:
From the question above, we are given the following parameters; under the bid, we have $1.42 = €1.00 and $1.48 = €1.00; the borrowing and lending are $ 4.25% and 4% APR respectively for S0($/€).
Also, for F360($/€), the bid and ask values are: $1.48 = €1.00 and $1.50 = €1.00 respectively; the borrowing and lending values are 3.10% APR and 3% APR.
Therefore, the Borrowing rate is ($) 4.25% in $ . Thus, $1,000,000 for one year, one we owe
$1,000,000 × (1 + 0.0425) = $1,042,500 at maturity.
Cully Furniture buys two products for resale: king beds (K) and queen beds (Q). Each king bed costs $500 and requires 100 cubic feet of storage space, and each queen bed costs $250 and requires 80 cubic feet of storage space. The company has $80,000 to invest in shelves this week, and the warehouse has 30,000 cubic feet available for storage. Profit for each king bed is $400 and for each queen bed is $200. 1). (10’) Please set up the LP model for the above situation.2). (20’) How many king beds (K) and how many queen bed (Q) should be purchased at optimal? 3). (10’) Whether we have slack or surplus variable applicable in this question? If we do, what is the value of slack (or/and surplus) variable? What is the meaning behind it?4). (10’) If the furniture company purchases no king beds and 300 queen beds, which resources will be completely used (at capacity)?
Answer:
1) 500K + 250Q ≤ 80,000
100K+80Q≤ 30,000
K≥0
Q≥0
P= 400K + 200Q
2) zero king beds and 320 queen beds
or zero queen beds and 160 king beds
3) surplus variable
surplus variable is storage space
values of surplus variable is 14,000 cubic feet if zero queen beds and 160 king beds
value of surplus variable is 4,400 cubic feet if zero king beds and 320 queen beds.
surplus is the extra amount available after all resources have been utilized to theri maximum.
4) none of the resources will be completely used. There will be surplus of both
Explanation:
1) Implicit variables: K≥0 ; Q ≥ 0
Explicit variables:
500K + 250Q ≤ 80,000-------------------------- from investment constraint
100K+80Q≤ 30,000 ---------------------- from storage space constraint
LP: P= 400K + 200Q
2) See the attachment for profit maximization graph
3) From graph in the attachment, it can be inferred that storage space is the surplus variable since graph of that equation lies completely outside of optimal area.
Also,
if K=160 and Q=0, the inequality of investment gives
500(160) + 250(0)= 80,000
if K=0 and Q=320, the inequality of investment gives
500(0)+ 250(320) =80,000
if K=0 and Q = 320, the inequality of space gives
100(0) + 80(320)= 25,600
surplus= 30,000- 25,600= 4,400
if K=160 and Q=0, the inequality of space gives
100(160) +250(0)= 16000
surplus= 30000-16000= 14000
4) K=0 and Q=300
investment inequality gives
500(0) + 250(300) ≤ 80,000
75,000≤ 80,000
space inequality gives
100(0) + 80(300) ≤ 30,000
24,000≤ 30,000
Both space and investment are in surplus
Warren Buffet opposes stock splits to lower the share price because he believes:________.
a. lower share price will encourage other companies to try to take over the company from existing shareholders.
b. lower stock price encourages short term investing, whereas he is looking for long-term investors.
c. stock splits encourage long-term investing, which is detrimental to his firm's investment policy.
d. lower share price indicates poor growth prospects..
Answer:. b. lower stock price encourages short term investing, whereas he is looking for long-term investors.
Explanation:
Warren Buffet has stated that he does not want to split Berkshire Hathaway's stock because he believes that it would attract short term investors whereas he is looking for long term investors. He believes that a stock being split makes it susceptible to investors who just want to buy it for the meantime, wait for it to appreciate a bit and then sell. He however prefers Companies with a long term potential so he prefers people investing for the long run.
Windsor Co. is building a new hockey arena at a cost of $2,420,000. It received a down payment of $510,000 from local businesses to support the project, and now needs to borrow $1,910,000 to complete the project. It therefore decided to issue $1,910,000 of 10%, 10-year bonds. These bonds were issued on January 1, 2019, and pay interest annually on each January 1. The bonds yield 9%.
Prepare the journal entry to record the issuance of the bonds on January 1, 2019.
Answer:
Dr Cash $2,032,577.26
Cr premium on bonds payable $122,577.26
Cr bonds payable $1,910,000
Explanation:
First and foremost the proceeds received from the bond issuance needs to determine the pv formula in excel as follows:
=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)
rate is the yield to maturity of 9%
nper is the number of annual coupons payable by the bond which is 10
pmt is the amount of annual coupon i.e $1,910,000*10%=$191000
fv is the face value of the bond which is $1,910,000
=-pv(9%,10,191000,1910000)=$2,032,577.26
premium on bonds issuance= 2,032,577.26-1,910,000.00= $122,577.26
Blue Space Corporation launches exploratory space flights to the moon and Mars. The purpose is to discover and retrieve minerals and other resources. Under U.S. Law, Blue Space a. must share with all interested parties what it retrieves in space. b. cannot profit from resources retrieved in space. c. cannot legally retrieve resources in space. d. owns what it retrieves in space.
Answer:
D. Owns what it retrieves in space.
Explanation:
This explains the right of an american that entails that anybody that retrieves minerals or other useful resources own or has control over what it retrieves in space.
Americans however should have the right to engage in commercial exploration, recovery, and use of resources in outer space, consistent with applicable law. Outer space is a legally and physically unique domain of human activity, and the United States does not view it as a global commons. Accordingly, it shall be the policy of the United States to encourage international support for the public and private recovery and use of resources in outer space, consistent with applicable law.
Axelia Corporation has two divisions, Refining and Extraction. The company's primary product is Luboil Oil. Each division's costs are provided below: Extraction: Variable costs per barrel of oil $ 12 Fixed costs per barrel of oil $ 4 Refining: Variable costs per barrel of oil $ 27 Fixed costs per barrel of oil $ 30 The Refining Division has been operating at a capacity of 40 comma 200 barrels a day and usually purchases 26 comma 000 barrels of oil from the Extraction Division and 15 comma 900 barrels from other suppliers at $ 57 per barrel. What is the transfer price per barrel from the Extraction Division to the Refining Division, assuming the method used to place a value on each barrel of oil is 120% of full costs? A. $ 82.80 B. $ 19.20 C. $ 46.00 D. $ 16.00
Answer:
Transfer price = $19.2
Explanation:
The transfer price is the price at which goods are exchanged between the divisions of the same group.
The transfer price is stated to be 120% of the full cost
Full cost of extraction = Variable cost + fixed cost
= $ 12 + $ 4 = $16 per barrel
Transfer price = 120%× $16 = $19.2
oel purchased 100 shares of stock for $31 per share. During the year, he received dividend checks amounting to $202. Joel recently sold the stock for $58 per share. Joel is in a 35% tax bracket. He would pay $945 in taxes if he held the stock for less than a year. How much would Joel save in taxes if he held the stock for more than a year, assuming he sold it for the same amount?
Answer:
Joel would save tax of $540 if the stock was held for more than a year
Explanation:
If the stock is held for more than one year and then sold then the gain on sale would be long term capital gain
The long term capital gain would be charged at preferential rate of 15%
Calculate long term capital gain tax on sale
Long term capital gain (Sale price - Purchase price)*No of shares
Long term capital gain (58-31)*100
Long term capital gain $2700
Tax on long term capital gain 2700*15%
Tax on long term capital gain $405
Savings in tax 945 - 405
Savings in tax $540
Thus, Joel would save tax of $540 if the stock was held for more than a year
The average starting salary for this year's graduates at a large university (LU) is $20,000 with
a standard deviation of $8,000. Furthermore, it is known that the starting salaries are normally
distributed.
a. What is the probability that a randomly selected LU graduate will have a starting salary
of at least $30,400? (3 marks)
b. What is the probability that a randomly selected LU graduate will have a salary of
exactly $30,400? (2 marks)
c. Individuals with starting salaries of less than $15600 receive a low income tax break.
What percentage of the graduates will receive the tax break? (2 marks)
d. If 189 of the recent graduates have salaries of at least $32240, how many students
graduated this year from this university? (3 marks)
Answer:
a) The probability that a randomly selected LU graduate will have a starting salary of at least $30,400 = P(x ≥ 30400) = 0.0968
b) The probability that a randomly selected LU graduate will have a salary of exactly $30,400 = 0.000021421
c) Percentage of students that will receive a tax break = 29.12%
d) Total Number of graduates this year = 3,000
Explanation:
This is a normal distribution problem with
Mean = μ = $20,000
Standard deviation = σ = $8,000
a) The probability that a randomly selected LU graduate will have a starting salary of at least $30,400 = P(x ≥ 30400)
We first normalize or standardize $30,400
The standardized score for any value is the value minus the mean then divided by the standard deviation.
z = (x - μ)/σ = (30400 - 20000)/8000 = 1.30
The required probability
P(x ≥ 30400) = P(z ≥ 1.30)
We'll use data from the normal probability table for these probabilities
P(x ≥ 30400) = P(z ≥ 1.30) = 1 - P(z < 1.30)
= 1 - 0.90320
= 0.0968
b) The probability that a randomly selected LU graduate will have a salary of exactly $30,400
Here, we will use the normal distribution formula. The normal distribution formula is presented in the attached image
P(X = x) = f(x) = [1 ÷ σ√(2π)] × e^(-0.5z²)
x = $30,400
σ = $8,000
z = 1.30
P(X = 30400) = f(30400) = 0.000021421
c) Individuals with starting salaries of less than $15600 receive a low income tax break.
What percentage of the graduates will receive the tax break?
Required probability = P(x < 15600)
We first normalize or standardize $15,600
z = (x - μ)/σ = (15600 - 20000)/8000 = -0.55
The required probability
P(x < 15600) = P(z < -0.55)
We'll use data from the normal probability table for these probabilities
P(x < 15600) = P(z < -0.55)
= 0.29116 = 29.116% = 29.12%
d) If 189 of the recent graduates have salaries of at least $32240, how many students
graduated this year from this university?
We first find the percentage of LU graduates with salaries more than $32240
Required probability = P(x ≥ 32240)
We first normalize or standardize $32,240
z = (x - μ)/σ = (32240 - 20000)/8000 = 1.53
The required probability
P(x ≥ 32240) = P(z ≥ 1.53)
We'll use data from the normal probability table for these probabilities
P(x ≥ 32240) = P(z ≥ 1.53) = 1 - P(z < 1.53)
= 1 - 0.93699
= 0.06301 = 6.301%
So, 6.301% of the graduates this year = 189
Total Number of graduates this year = (189/0.06301) = 2999.5 = 3000 graduates this year.
Hope this Helps!!!

Collapse question part (a) Calculate the profit margin. (Round answer to 1 decimal place, e.g. 15.2%.) Profit margin Enter percentages rounded to 1 decimal place %
Answer:
13.5%
Explanation:
Relevant data provided for computing the profit margin which is here below:-
Net Income = $175,000
Net Sales = $1,300,000
The computation of profit margin is shown below:-
Profit Margin = (Net Income ÷ Net Sales) × 100
= ($175,000 ÷ $1,300,000) × 100
= 13.5%
Therefore for computing the profit margin we simply applied the above formula.

Inventory 620Cost of Goods Sold 620Sales Revenue 960Accounts Receivable 960B. Accounts Receivable 960Sales Revenue 960Cost of Goods Sold 620Inventory 620C. Inventory 620Gain 340Sales Revenue 960D. Accounts Receivable 960Sales Revenues 620Gain 340
Answer:
B. Accounts Receivable 960
Sales Revenue 960
Cost of Goods Sold 620
Inventory 620
Explanation:
Under perpetual inventory system the sale is recorded separately by sale value and the cost of the sold inventory is deducted from the inventory and added in the cost of goods sold.
Ne benefit of $340 (960-620) is automatically recorded and it will be measure at end of the period by formatting the income statement. It does not need to be recorded separately.
Brownley Company has two service departments and two operating (production) departments. The Payroll Department services all three of the other departments in proportion to the number of employees in each. The Maintenance Department costs are allocated to the two operating departments in proportion to the floor space used by each. Listed below are the operating data for the current period: Service Depts. Production Depts. Payroll Maintenance Cutting Assembly Direct costs $ 20,400 $ 25,500 $ 76,500 $ 105,400 No. of personnel 15 15 45 Sq. ft. of space 10,000 15,000 The total cost of operating the Maintenance Department for the current period is:
Answer:
The total cost of operating the Maintenance Department for the current period is $29,580
Explanation:
In order to calculate The total cost of operating the Maintenance Department for the current period we would have to calculate first the Overhead allocated to Maintenance from Payroll department as follows:
Overhead allocated=Payroll overhead×(Maintenance payroll personnel/Total personnel)
Overhead allocated=$ 20,400×(15/15+15+45)
Overhead allocated=$4,080
Therefore, to calculate the The total cost of operating the Maintenance Department for the current period we would have to use the following formula:
Total cost of operating Maintenance Department=Overhead allocated+Direct overhead incurred
Total cost of operating Maintenance Department=$4,080+$25,500
Total cost of operating Maintenance Department=$29,580
The total cost of operating the Maintenance Department for the current period is $29,580

Sheffield Corp. issued $7080000 of 11%, ten-year convertible bonds on July 1, 2020 at 96.1 plus accrued interest. The bonds were dated April 1, 2020 with interest payable April 1 and October 1. Bond discount is amortized semiannually on a straight-line basis. On April 1, 2021, $1416000 of these bonds were converted into 600 shares of $20 par value common stock. Accrued interest was paid in cash at the time of conversion. If "interest payable" were credited when the bonds were issued, what should be the amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020
Answer:
The amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020 is $194,700
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
Bond face value=$7,080,000
interest rate=11%
There are 3 months interest recognized from july to september, therefore, to calculate the amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020 we would have to make the following calculation:
amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020=$7,080,000*11%*3 months / 12 months
amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020=$194,700
The amount of the debit to "interest expense" on October 1, 2020 is $194,700
The management of Unter Corporation, an architectural design firm, is considering an investment with the following cash flows: Year Investment Cash Inflow 1 $ 59,000 $ 5,000 2 $ 9,000 $ 10,000 3 $ 20,000 4 $ 21,000 5 $ 24,000 6 $ 22,000 7 $ 20,000 8 $ 18,000 9 $ 17,000 10 $ 17,000 Required: 1. Determine the payback period of the investment. 2. Would the payback period be affected if the cash inflow in the last year were several times as large
Answer:
4.5 years
No
Explanation:
The Payback period calculates the amount of time it takes to recover the amounts invested in a project from its cumulative cash flows.
Total investments = $-59,000 - $9,000 = $-68,000
In the first year: $-68,000 + $5,000 = $-63,000 is recovered
In the 2nd year: $-63,000 + $ 10,000 = $-53,000 is recovered
In the 3rd year: $-53,000 + $ 20,000 = $-33,000 is recovered
In the 4th year $-33,000 + 21,000 = $-12,000
In the 5th year $-12000 + $24,000 = $12,000
The amount invested is recovered between the 4th and 5th year
4 years + $-12000 / $24,000 = 4.5years
The Payback period would not be affected if the cash inflow in the last year were several times as large because the cash flow would have been recovered by the 5tj year.

On January 1, 2020, Martinez Company makes the two following acquisitions. 1. Purchases land having a fair value of $330,000 by issuing a 4-year, zero-interest-bearing promissory note in the face amount of $483,153. 2. Purchases equipment by issuing a 6%, 9-year promissory note having a maturity value of $380,000 (interest payable annually). The company has to pay 10% interest for funds from its bank. (a) Record the two journal entries that should be recorded by Martinez Company for the two purchases on January 1, 2020. (b) Record the interest at the end of the first year on both notes using the effective-interest method.
Answer:
Explanation:
a)
Date Account Titles and Explanation Debit Credit
January 1, 2020 Land $360,000.00
Discount on notes payable $246,621.00
Notes payable $ 606,621.00
(To record purchase of land by issuing note payable)
PV of $606,621 discounted at 11% =606,621/(1.11)^5 = $ 360,000
2.
Computation of the discount on notes payable:
Maturity value $560,000
Present value of $560,000 due in 8 years at 11% = $560,000 * 0.43393 = $ 243,000
Present value of $39,200 payable annually for 8 years at 11% annually—$39,200 * 5.14612 = $ 201,728
Present value of the note = $ 243,000 + $ 201,728 = $ 444,728
Discount = $ 560,000 - $ 444,728 = $ 115,272

Consider a portfolio manager with a $20,500,000 equity portfolio under management. The manager wishes to hedge against a decline in share values using stock index futures. Currently a stock index future is priced at 1250 and has a multiplier of 250. The portfolio beta is 1.25. Calculate the number of contracts required to hedge the risk exposure and indicate whether the manager should be short or long.
Answer:
Assume that a month later the equity portfolio has a market value of $20,000,000 and the stock index future is priced at 1150 with a multiplier of 250. Calculate the profit on the equity position.
Calculate the overall profit.
$1,550,000
Explanation:
Assume that a month later the equity portfolio has a market value of $20,000,000 and the stock index future is priced at 1150 with a multiplier of 250. Calculate the profit on the equity position.
Calculate the overall profit.
The manager should be short on the stock index futures because the position on the equity portfolio is long.
Number of contracts required to hedge
= [$20,500,000/(1250*250)] * 1.25 = 82 contracts
Profit on the equity portfolio
= $20,000,000 - $20,500,000 = -$500,000
Profit on the stock index future
= [(1250)(250) – (1150)(250)] x 82 = $2,050,000
Overall profit
= $2,050,000 - $500,000
= $1,550,000
therefore, the overall profit is $1,550,000
Scenario 28-1 Suppose that the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the entire adult population of Mankiwland can be categorized as follows: 25 million people employed, 3 million people unemployed, 1 million discouraged workers, and 1 million people who are either students, homemakers, retirees, or other people not seeking employment. Refer to Scenario 28-1. How many people are unemployed
Answer: 3 million.
Explanation:
Unemployment is defined as when a member of a Country's labor force is jobless but actively looking for work.
In the Scenario 28-1, the discouraged people are not counted as they are discouraged and not looking for work and 1 million other people being students and retirees amongst others are not looking for work either.
The unemployed section of Mankiwland is therefore the 3 million unemployed people.
