What is the effective annual inerest rate?
A. 9%
B. 10%
C. 11%
D. 20%

Answers

Answer:

B. 10%

Explanation:

The computation of the effective annual interest rate is shown below:-

Effective annual interest rate = Lease payment third effective interest ÷ Lease payment second balance × 100

= $2,126 ÷ $21,260 × 100

= 10%

Therefore for computing the effective annual interest rate we simply applied the above formula.

Hence the correct option is B.

Lead time for one of your​ fastest-moving products is 24 days.

Answers

Answer:

a.) reorder point = 2,640 units

b.) reorder point = 5,280 units (reorder point doubles)

c.) reorder point = 1,320 units (reorder point drops in half)

Explanation:

Reorder point is the inventory level (point) at which action is taken (order placed) to replenish the stocked item. It is calculated as follows:

Reorder point = (Lead time × average daily sales) + safety stock

Lead time = 24 days

average daily sales = 110 units

safety stock = 0 (not given)

a.) reorder point = (Lead time × average daily sales) + safety stock

reorder point = (24 × 110) + 0 = 2,640 units

b.) if demand during lead time doubles:

lead time = 24 days

average daily sales = (110 × 2) = 220

∴ reorder point = 220 × 24 = 5,280 units

Therefore the reorder point doubles

c.) if demand during lead time drops in half:

lead time = 24 days

average daily demand = (110 ÷ 2) = 55 units

∴ reorder point = 24 × 55 = 1,320 units

Therefore the reorder point drops in half.

The simple rate of return is also called all of the following except ________. annual rate of return unadjusted rate of return accounting rate of return

An investment offers a total return of 12.0 percent over the coming year. Janice Yellen thinks the total real return on this investment will be only 6.0 percent. What does Janice believe the inflation rate will be over the next year?

Answers

Answer:

inflation rate= 0.06= 6%

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Interest rate= 12%

Real rate of return= 6%

The inflation rate is counterproductive to the interest rate. The inflation rate reduces the purchasing price, therefore it decreases the interest rate effect on nominal money.

Real interest rate= interest rate - inflation rate

0.06 = 0.12 - inflation rate

inflation rate= 0.12 - 0.06

inflation rate= 0.06= 6%

Company ABC is required to pay their customers $20,000 after 3 years. Based on an annual effective interest rate of 4%, Andy, the company’s actuary, uses full immunization strategy to construct a portfolio of assets using a 2-year zero-coupon bond and a 4-year zero-coupon bond. Calculate the par amount for the 2-year zero-coupon bond assuming full immunization is met.

Answers

Answer:

Par amount = $9,615.39

Explanation:

The condition that must hold in order to meet full immunization are as follows:

Condition 1: PV(assets) = PV(liabilities)

Condition 2: MD(assets) = MD(liabilities) or P'assets = P'liabilities

Condition 3: There is one asset cash inflow before the liability cash outflow, and there is also one asset cash inflow after the liability cash outflow.

Where PV denotes Present Value and MD denotes Macaulay Duration.

PV(liabilities) = Amount required to pay / (1 + i)^n ............ (1)

Where;

Amount required to pay = $20,000

i = interest rate = 4%

n = number of years after = 3 years

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

PV(liabilities) = $20,000 / (1 + 4%)^3 = 17,779.93

Let;

A = Weight of two-year-zero-coupon bond in the portfolio

n = Macaulay Duration of n-year-zero-coupon bond

Therefore, we can construct a portfolio of assets using a 2-year zero-coupon bond and a 4-year zero-coupon bond as follows:

A(2) + (1 – A)(4) = 3

2A + 4 – 4A = 3

2A – 4A = 3 – 4

-2A = - 1

A = -1/-2

A = 0.5

We can now calculate the par amount as follows:

Par amount = PV(liabilities) * A * (1 + i)^t .............. (2)

Where t = 2 as the duration of the bond

Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:

Par amount = 17,779.93 * 0.5 * (1 + 4%)^2

Par amount = 17,779.93 * 0.5 * 1.04^2

Par amount = 17,779.93 * 0.5 * 1.0816

Par amount = $9,615.39

Therefore, the par amount for the 2-year zero-coupon bond assuming full immunization is met is $9,615.39.

The risk-free rate of return is 3.2 percent and the market risk premium is 4.6 percent. What is the expected rate of return on a stock with a beta of 2.12

Answers

Answer:

12.95%

Explanation:

The risk free rate of return is 3.2%

The market risk premium is 4.6%

The beta is 2.12

Therefore, the expected rate of return on a stock can be calculated as follows

= 3.2% + (2.12×4.6%)

= 3.2% + 9.752

= 12.95%

Hence the expected rate of return on a stock is 12.95%

3. There a number of market entry strategies that businesses use in entering into markets outside their countries. a) Distinguish between the use of Franchising and Joint Venture as modes of entry into other countries by global businesses. b) What are the respective advantages and disadvantages of both strategies?

Answers

Answer:

a) Distinguish between the use of Franchising and Joint Venture as modes of entry into other countries by global businesses.

Franchising consists in the licensing of aspects of production and intellectual property to a another party: the franchise.

A Joint Venture is a business union between two or more parties, in which they split profit as well as costs and responsabilities.

b) What are the respective advantages and disadvantages of both strategies?

Franchising can be a quicker way to expand into foreign markets. The flexibility of the method, and the lower capital requirements are the reason why. This can be seen in the success that American fast-food brands have had using this method to expand in global markets.

A Joint-Venture can be more difficult to use for market expansion, however, it can be more profitable, because the profit will not be split among as many parties as in franchising, and more importantly, the firm maintains a higher control of the operation.

Activity-Based Costing: Selling and Administrative Expenses Jungle Junior Company manufactures and sells outdoor play equipment. Jungle Junior uses activity-based costing to determine the cost of the sales order processing and the customer return activity. The sales order processing activity has an activity rate of $20 per sales order, and the customer return activity has an activity rate of $100 per return. Jungle Junior sold 2,500 swing sets, which consisted of 750 orders and 80 returns.

Required:
a. Determine the total sales order processing and customer return activity cost for swing sets.
b. Determine the per-unit sales order processing and customer return activity cost for swing sets. Round your answer to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer: 1}ToTAL Activity cost =$23,000

2a)  Sales order Processing Activity per unit sale=$6.00

2b)customer return activity per unit sale=$3.20

Explanation:

a. total sales order processing and customer return activity cost for swing sets

Sales order Processing Activity =Number of orders x rate per sales order

                                       =750 x 20 =  $15,000

customer return activity  = Number of returns x rate per return

                                         = 80 x 100= $8,000

ToTAL Activity cost = Sales order Processing Activity +customer return activity= $15,000 + $8000 = $23,000

b)per-unit sales order processing and customer return activity cost for swing sets

Cost of Sale order processing = $15,000

Number of swing set sold = 2,500

Therefore Sales order Processing Activity per unit sale =  Cost of Sale order processing/ Number of swing set sold = $15,000/ 2,500= $6.00

customer return activity cost  = $8,000

Number of swing set sold = 2,500

Therefore customer return activity per unit sale=  customer return activity cost / Number of swing set sold = $8,000/ 2,500= $3.20

ToTAL Activity cost  per unit sale = Sales order Processing Activity  cost per unit +customer return activity cost per unit = $6.00 +  $3.20 = $9.20

The Whistling Straits Corporation needs to raise $74 million to finance its expansion into new markets. The company will sell new shares of equity via a general cash offering to raise the needed funds. The offer price is $45 per share and the company's underwriters charge a spread of 6 percent. If the SEC filing fee and associated administrative expenses of the offering are $825,000, how many shares need to be sold? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions, rounded to the nearest whole number, e.g., 1,234,567.)

Answers

Answer:

1,768,913 new stocks

Explanation:

the company needs to raise amount needed to finance expansion plus SEC's filing and administrative fees = $74,000,000 + $825,000 = $74,825,000

net amount received per stock issued = stock price x (1 - underwriting fee) = $45 x (1 - 6%) = $42.30 per stock

the company needs to issue = $74,825,000 / $42.30 per stock = 1,768,912.53 = 1,768,913 new stocks

1. Compute return on investment.
2. Compute profit margin.
3. Compute investment turnover for the year.A food manufacturer reports the following for two of its divisions for a recent year.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

1. Return on investment is

= Operating Income ÷ Average invested Assets

here, average invested assets is

= (Invested assets, beginning + Invested assets, ending) ÷ 2

For Beverage Division

= $349 ÷ (($2,662 + $2,593) ÷ 2)

= $349 ÷ $2,628

= 13.28%

For Cheese Division

= $634 ÷ (($4,455 + $4,400) ÷ 2)

= $634 ÷ $4,428

= 14.32%

2. Profit margin = (Operating income ÷ sales) × 100

For Beverage Division

= ($349 ÷ $2,681) × 100

= 13.02%

For Cheese Division

= ($634 ÷ $3,925) × 100

= 16.15%

3. Investment turnover = Sales ÷ Average Operating Assets

For Beverage Division

If an investor purchases a bond when its current yield is higher than the coupon rate, then the bond's price will be expected to

Answers

Answer:

The answer is: The bond price is expected to Increase over time, reaching par value at maturity

Explanation:

If an investor purchased a bond when the bond current yield-to-maturity is higher than the bond's price, the bond is said to be bought at discount (its price is less than the face value at maturity). With this, the bond price will be expected to Increase over time, reaching par value at maturity.

And when the opposite happens i.e coupon rate higher than the current yield-to-maturity, the bond is said to be bought at premium.

Despite the theoretical elegance of this hypothesis, empirical studies have come to the opposite conclusion. Despite the favorable effect of international diversification of cash flows, bankruptcy risk was only about the same for MNEs as for domestic firms. However, MNEs faced higher costs for each of the following EXCEPT:
A) agency costs.
B) political risk.
C) asymmetric information.
D) In fact, each of these costs were higher for the MNE than for the domestic firm.

Answers

Answer:

D) In fact, each of these costs were higher for the MNE than for the domestic firm.

Explanation:

It has been concluded through empirical studies, that Multinational Enterprises, MNEs encounters various factors leading to lower debt ratios and a higher cost of long-term debt, such as greater agency costs, political risk, asymmetric information, and foreign exchange risk,

Hence, given the question above, the right answer is option D "In fact, each of these costs was higher for the MNE than for the domestic firm."

the fair value of Blossom is estimated to be $820,800. The carrying value of Blossom’s net identifiable assets, including the goodwill, at year-end is $855,000. Prepare Cullumber’s journal entry, if necessary, to record impairment of goodwill.

Answers

Answer:

Cullumber Company

Journal Entry:

Debit Loss on Goodwill Impairment $34,200

Credit Goodwill $34,200

To record the loss on goodwill impairment.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculation:

Fair value = $820,800

Carrying value of net identifiable assets, including goodwill = $855,000

Goodwill impairment = $34,200 ($855,000 - $820,800)

b) Cullumber, which acquired Blossom is expected to check for the impairment of goodwill yearly.  The impairment occurs when the carrying value of the net identifiable assets of Blossom is more than the fair value of Blossom.  Generally Accepted Accounting Standards require the annual review of the fair value of goodwill to check for its impairment.  By the above entry, the goodwill will be reduced by $34,200 and a loss debited in Cullumber's accounts.

The before-trade domestic price of tomatoes in the United States is $500 per ton. The world price of tomatoes is $400 per ton. The U.S. is a price-taker in the tomatoes market.
If trade in tomatoes is allowed, the United States:______
a) will experience increases in both consumer surplus and producer surplus.
b) may become either an importer or an exporter of tomatoes, but this cannot be determined.
c) will become an exporter of tomatoes.
d) will become an importer of tomatoes.

Answers

Answer:

d) will become an importer of tomatoes.

Explanation:

Consumer surplus would increase because the price at which they buy tomatoes would reduce while producer surplus would reduce because the price of tomatoes would reduce as a result of international trade.

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the good.Because the price of tomatoes in the US is greater than the price of tomatoes in the world, when the US begins international trade, it would import tomatoes because it is inefficient in the production of tomatoes.  

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the seller is willing to sell the product

Gabriel, Harris and Ida are members of Jeweled Watches, LLC. What are their options with respect to the management of their firm?

Answers

Answer:

They could be a Member-managed Limited Liability Company or a Manager-managed Limited Liability Company.

Explanation:

A Limited Liability Company is usually run by two or more partners. In managing this type of company, the members might choose to manage the company themselves. This is known as a member-managed Limited Liability Company. In such cases, if any member makes a decision in behalf of the business, with his signature appended to it, such a decision is considered legally binding on all other members of the company. Every member also has a say in the company's decision-making.

If they choose to be a manager-managed Limited Liability Company, they can appoint one or more non-members to manage the company for them. They do not interfere with how the manager chooses to run the company. They can still make important decisions but this is quite limited. However, they can choose to remove the manager/managers as they will.

d. Business process reengineering, best practice standardization programs, and six sigma
e. adoption of best practices, TQM, and business process reengineering

Answers

Answer:

e. adoption of best practices, TQM, and business process reengineering

Explanation:

To promote operational excellence in the execution of value chain activities, the most appropriate tools to be implemented in an organization are the adoption of best practices, TQM and business process reengineering.

Total quality management refers to the continuous improvement of all operational processes, in order to reduce costs, failures, and waste, leading to the implementation, control and review of all organizational processes, including the adoption of advanced technology, adequate training for employees, etc.

Business process reengineering would also help the organization reevaluate its value chain and implement improvements that would increase the performance and functionality of each essential step in the value chain.

Therefore, these integrated tools would ensure continuous optimization at all stages of the value chain, which would mean for the company the effectiveness of the channels and activities for the company to produce the right product, in the right quantity, in the right place and at the right time.

HighLife Corporation has the following information: Average demand = 30 units per day Average lead time = 40 days Item unit cost = $45 for orders of less than 400 units Item unit cost = $40 for orders of 400 units or more Ordering cost = $50 Inventory carrying cost = 15 percent The business year is 300 days. Standard deviation of demand during lead time = 90 Desired service level = 95 percent What is the EOQ if HighLife pays $45/unit? Due to possible differences in rounding, choose the closest answer.\

Answers

Answer:

365.15 units

Explanation:

The computation of the economic order quantity is shown below:

[tex]= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}[/tex]

where,

Annual demand is

= 30 units × 300 days

= 90,000 units

ordering cost is $50

Carrying cost is

= $45 × 15%

= $6.75

Now placing these values to the above formula

So, the economic order quantity is

[tex]= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{90,000}\times \text{\$50}}{\text{\$6.75}}}[/tex]

= 365.15 units

We simply applied the above formula so that the EOQ could come

What are the benefits and risks associated with social networks? Support your answers with relevant examples

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

There are many benefits as well as risks to social networks. The greatest benefit is that they allow us to connect with individuals from anywhere in the world, at any distance, and in a seconds notice. This is incredibly powerful and opens the door for many opportunities in all types of markets. Social networks also come with risks, since everyone is on it people tend to share all of their information which can cause problems for that individual if it falls into the wrong hands. For example, an individual connects with a family member who lives in Brasil and has casual conversations with that family member every other day. A hacker may be able to access that information and extract all the valuable information needed to steal that individual's identity.

Answers

Answer:

If output rises to 57,000 units, what will the percentage change in operating cash flow be?

24.23%

What is the operating cash flow at 46,000 units?

$45,613.84

The degree of operating leverage (at 46,000 units)?

4.84

Explanation:

degree of operating leverage = [quantity x (price - variable costs)] / {[quantity x (price - variable costs)] - fixed costs}

degree of operating leverage x {[quantity x (price - variable costs)] - fixed costs} = [quantity x (price - variable costs)]

3.21 x {[53000 x (contribution margin)] - fixed costs} = [53000 x (contribution margin)]

(3.21 x 53000 x contribution margin) - (3.21 x 175000) = 53000 x contribution margin

let C = contribution margin

170130C - 561750 = 53000C

117130C = 561750

C = 561750 / 117130 = 4.795953

operating cash flow (at 53,000) = (53,000 x $4.795953) - $175,000 = $79,185.52

operating cash flow (at 57,000) = (57,000 x $4.795953) - $175,000 = $98,369.32

% change = ($98,369.32 - $79,185.52) / $79,185.52 = 24.23%

operating cash flow (at 46,000) = (46,000 x $4.795953) - $175,000 = $45,613.84

% change in operating cash flows = ($45,613.84 - $79,185.52) / $79,185.52 = -43.4%

% change in sales = (46,000 - 53,000) / 53,000 = -13.21

degree of operating leverage = $220,613.84 / $45,613.74 = 4.84
