Instructions:
Compute the current ratio, current cash debt coverage, accounts receivable turnover, average collection period, inventory turnover, and days in inventory at the end of the current year.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:-

1. Current ratio is

= Current Assets ÷ Current Liabilities

= $7,860 ÷ $3,930

= 2

2. Current cash debt coverage is

= Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities ÷ Average Current Liabilities

Average Current Liabilities = ($3,930 + $3,122) ÷ 2

= $3,526

Current Cash Debt Coverage Ratio = $1,251 ÷ $3,526

= 25.48%

3. Accounts receivable turnover is

= Net Credit Sales ÷ Average Accounts Receivables

= $8,258 ÷ (($4,000 + $3,800) ÷ 2)

= $8,258 ÷ $3,900

= 2.12 times

4. Average collection period is

= 365 ÷ Account Receivable Turnover

= 365 ÷ 2.12

= 172.17

5. Inventory Turnover is

= Cost of Goods Sold ÷ Average Inventory

= $5,328 ÷ ((1,800 + 1,800) ÷ 2

= $5,328 ÷ 1,800

= 2.96

6. Days in Inventory is

= 365 ÷ Inventory Turnover Ratio

= 365 ÷ 2.96

= 123.31 days

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.

Answers

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

What's the present value of $4,500 discounted back 5 years if the appropriate interest rate is 4.5%, compounded semiannually?

Answers

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

Answers

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.

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.

Answers

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.

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.

Indigo Corporation had the following tax information.

Year      Taxable Income         Tax Rate               Taxes Paid

2015        $294,000                  35%                       $102,900

2016         332,000                    30%                        99,600

2017          399,000                    30%                       119,700

In 2018, Indigo suffered a net operating loss of $487,000, which it elected to carry back. The 2018 enacted tax rate is 26%.

The objective is to prepare the Indigo's entry to record the effect of the loss carryback.

The Income  Tax Refund Receivable = Taxable income(2018) × Tax rate(2018) + ( net operating loss - Taxable income(2018) )  × Tax rate(2018)

(332000 × 30%)+(476000-332000) × 30%

The Income  Tax Refund Receivable =  (332000 × 0.30)+(476000-332000) × 0.30

The Income  Tax Refund Receivable = 99600 + 144000× 0.30

The Income  Tax Refund Receivable = 99600 + 43200

The Income  Tax Refund Receivable = 142800

Therefore, Indigo Corporation ENtry can be prepared as follows:

Account titles                                        Debit          Credit

Income Tax Refund Receivable          142800

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?

Answers

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.

A local restaurant increases the prices on its burgers as soon as it begins a promotional campaign. Which of the following is most likely to be true?
a) The promotional campaign featured how much better their burgers are.
b) The promotional campaign focused on the value per dollar.
c) The promotional campaign made demand more elastic.
d) All of the above.

Answers

Answer: The promotional campaign featured how much better their burgers are

Explanation:

The most likely reason why a local restaurant will increase the prices on its burgers as soon as it begins a promotional campaign is that the promotional campaign featured how much better their burgers are.

Through the promotional campaign, the message has been passed to the customers and anyone interested that the burgers are better and customers will enjoy value for their money.

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

Answers

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

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?

Answers

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%

Assuming that the firm is maximizing profits, the marginal cost of the last unit produced equals:________

Price Quantity Total cost
10 10 80
9 20 100
8 30 130
7 40 170
6 50 230
5 60 300
4 70 380


a. $4
b. $40
c. $5
d. $50
e. $6

Answers

Answer: b. $40

Explanation:

A firm maximises its profits where Marginal Revenue equals marginal cost.

Marginal revenue is the additional revenue gained by selling one more unit of production.

At 40 units, the marginal revenue is equal to;

= Total revenue at 40 units - total revenue at 30 units

= ( 7 * 40) - ( 8 * 30)

= 280 - 240

= $40

At 40 units the marginal cost is;

= total cost at 40 units - total cost at 30 units

= 170 - 130

= $40

MR=MC which is $40.

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.

Answers

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

Disturbed Corp. needs to raise $57 million to fund a new project. The company will sell shares at a price of $23.70 in a general cash offer and the company's underwriters will charge a spread of 7.5 percent. The direct flotation costs associated with the issue are $725,000 and the indirect costs are $445,000. How many shares need to be sold?

Answers

Answer: 2653438 shares

Explanation:

From the information given in the question, the following can be deduced:

The share price will be:

= $23.70 × (1 - 7.5%)

= $23.70 × (1 - 0.075)

= $23.70 × 0.925

= $21.9225

The money that will be raised will be:

= 57,000,000 + 725,000 + 445,000

= $58,170,000

The number of shares that are needed to be sold will be:

= $58,170,000/$21.9225

= 2653438 shares

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

Answers

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%

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.)

Answers

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

Answers

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.
