A small firm builds television antennas. The investment in plan and equipment is $200,000. The variable cost per television antenna is $500. The price of the television antenna is $1000. How many television antennas would be needed for the firm to break even
Answer:
Break-even quantity is 400 units.
Explanation:
Below is the calculation for the number of television antennas:
At break-even, the firm's total revenue is equal to the total cost.
Cost of investment (fixed cost) = $200000
Variable cost = $500
Pirce of television antenna = $1000
At break-even, TR = TC
(P x Q) = (TFC + TVC)
1000Q = 200000 + 500Q
10000Q-500Q = 200000
500Q = 200000
Q = 200000 / 500
Q = 400 units
Thus break-even quantity is 400 units.

Answer:
1. Perpetuity.
2. Opportunity cost of funds.
3. Annual Percentage rate.
Explanation:
1. Perpetuity: a series of equal (constant) cash flows (receipts or payments) that are expected to continue forever. It's typically a cash flow stream generated through a share of preferred stock and is often expected to pay dividends to the holders every quarter for an indefinite period of time.
2. Opportunity cost of funds: one of the four major time value of money terms; the amount to which an individual cash flow or series of cash payments or receipts will grow over a period of time when earning interest at a given rate of interest. Opportunity cost also known as the alternative forgone, can be defined as the value, profit or benefits given up by an individual or organization in order to choose or acquire something deemed significant at the time.
3. Annual Percentage rate: value that represents the interest paid by borrowers or earned by lenders, expressed as a percentage of the amount borrowed or invested over a 12-month period. An interest rate can be defined as an amount of money that is charged as a percentage of the total amount borrowed from an individual or a financial institution.
You own a portfolio equally invested in a risk-free asset and two stocks. If one of the stocks has a beta of 1.27 and the total portfolio is equally as risky as the market, what must the beta be for the other stock in your portfolio
Answer:
the beta be for the other stock in your portfolio is 1.73
Explanation:
The computation of the beta be for the other stock in your portfolio is shown below:
Given that
risk free asset contains the beta of 0
And,
market beta = 1
Now
1 = 1 ÷ 3 × 0 + 1 ÷ 3 × 1.27 + 1 ÷ 3 × beta
The beta of other stock = 1.73
hence, the beta be for the other stock in your portfolio is 1.73
Here we assume that one-third should be invested in all 3 things each
Companies in the same industry often select very different distribution networks, because the choice of the distribution network can be used to achieve a variety of supply chain objectives ranging from low cost to high responsiveness.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
T
Explanation:
As we’re well aware, vending machines are used to sell snacks and beverages, whereas newspapers are sold out of a box that allows anyone to take more than one paper. How does the concept of diminishing marginal utility explain the different distribution techniques for newspapers vs. snacks and beverages? Identify two additional examples of an item whose diminishing marginal utility is high. Remember: Marginal utility is the change in total utility that results from a one-unit increase in the quantity of a good consumed; diminishing marginal utility is the general tendency for marginal utility to decrease as the quantity of a good consumed increases.
Answer:
Because people do not need a second newspaper, it will not bring any more information to their lives, rather than a second soda can or snack.
Explanation:
The law of diminishing marginal utility states that there are some products or services to which an increase in the consumption will not bring the same utility for the user as the right amount, for example, if you eat a slice of pizza, it will bring certain benefit, you'll be less hungry but if you eat 7 slices of pizza at some point you'll no longer be hungry and it will rather make you sick, in this case vending machines have a higher marginal utility, a person could drink 3 or 4 drinks or take 4 or 5 snacks before it makes them feel sick, whilst a person that buys a person buying a newspaper won't need a second one, even if it is for his/her family, a 5 people house has enough newspaper by taking 1 copy of it.
Other examples of this can be a vacuum cleaner, you don't need a second one if you already have one, or a house buying a second house ain't as necessary as the first one.

Assuming you have to pay $6.00 to play the game, explain what happens in the long run. (Is it a good idea to play the game
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Explanation:
We create a probability distribution for the play and winning :
Possible winning, X = 0, 7, 20
Probability of winning :
Sum of 2 die rolls ; sample space = 6² = 36
P(winning 0) = (sum ≠ 2,3,5 or 6)/ sample space = 24 / 36 = 2/3
P(winning 20) = (sum = (2 or 3) / Sample space) = 9 / 36 = 1/4
P(winning 7) = (sum = (5or6) / sample space) = 3 / 36 = 1/12
Distribution table :
X _____ 0 _______ 7 _____ 20
P(x) ___ 2/3 _____ 1/4 ____ 1/12
Expected value of the game ; E(X) ;
E(X) = Σx*p(x)
E(X) = (0*2/3) + (7*1/4) + (20*1/12)
E(X) = 0 + 1.75 + 1.6667
E(X) = 3.417
E(X) = 3.42
This means the mean winning after a long play is expected to be $3.42
To know if the game should be paku in the long run : we calculate the payoff
Expected Value - cost of paly
Cost of play = $6
Payoff = 3.42 - 6 = - 2.58
Since, payoff is negative, the game should not be played.
You’ve borrowed $21,518 on margin to buy shares in Ixnay, which is now selling at $40.6 per share. You invest 1,060 shares. Your account starts at the initial margin requirement of 50%. The maintenance margin is 35%. Two days later, the stock price changes to $38 per share. a. Will you receive a margin call?
Answer:
a. No, you will NOT receive a margin call.
b. The price at which you will receive the margin call is $31.23 per share.
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete as the part b of the requirement is omitted. To complete the question, the omitted part b is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
b. At what price will you receive the margin call?
The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:
a. Will you receive a margin call?
Margin loan = $21,518
Total amount invested = Number shares purchased * Selling price per share when purchased = 1,060 * $40.60 = $43,036
Initial equity = Total amount invested - Margin loan = $43,036 - $21,518 = $21,518
Market value of the stock two days later = Number shares purchased * Selling price per share two days later = 1,060 * $38 = $40,280
New equity = Market value of the stock two days later - Margin loan = $40,280 - $21,518 = $18,762
Percentage margin = New equity / Market value of the stock two days later = $18,762 / $40,280 = 0.4658, or 46.58%
Since your percentage margin of 46.58% is lower than the new required maintenance margin of 35%, you will NOT receive a margin call.
b. At what price will you receive the margin call?
Price to receive the margin call = (Margin loan / (100% - Maintenance margin after two days)) / Number of shares purchased = ($21,518 / (100% - 35%)) / 1,060 = $31.23
Therefore, the price at which you will receive the margin call is $31.23 per share.

Prepare journal entries to record each of the following four separate issuances of stock.
a. A corporation issued 3,000 shares of $10 par value common stock for $36,000 cash.
b. A corporation issued 1,500 shares of no-par common stock to its promoters in exchange for their efforts, estimated to be worth $23,000. The stock has a $2 per share stated value.
c. A corporation issued 1,500 shares of no-par common stock to its promoters in exchange for their efforts, estimated to be worth $23,000. The stock has no stated value.
d. A corporation issued 750 shares of $75 par value preferred stock for $79,250 cash.
Answer:
Transaction a
Debit : Cash $36,000
Credit : Common Stock (3,000 x $10) $30,000
Credit : Common Stock - Paid in excess of par $6,000
Transaction b
Debit : Cash $23,000
Credit : Common Stock $23,000
Transaction c
Debit : Cash $23,000
Credit : Common Stock $23,000
Transaction d
Debit : Cash $79,250
Credit : Preferred Stock (750 x $75) $56,250
Credit : Preferred Stock - Paid in excess of par $23,000
Explanation:
The journal entries to record each of the following four separate issuances of stock have been prepared above.
Step 1 : Distinguish if Stock has par value or not
For par value stock, any amount paid in excess of par value is places in a reserve - Paid in Excess of Par on issuance.
For non par value stocks, we value stocks at market price of item exchanged
Step 2 : Recording
On Issuance, Cash is increasing so we debit Cash Account. The Stock Account as well as the Reserve - Paid in Excess (if applicable) both increases on the credit side, so that will be a Credit entry

Each year Capital Two retains 75 percent of its customers, and the annual discount rate is 5 percent. What annual retention rate doubles the value of a customer?
Answer: 87.5%
Explanation:
Value of a Customer = Margin * Retention rate / (1 + Annual discount rate - Retention rate)
We shall assume a margin of 1 so no need to include it:
= 75% / ( 1 + 5% - 75%)
= 2.5
This value needs to double so assume the retention rate to double this is x and use the formula above to find it:
5 = x / (1 + 5% - x)
5 * (1 + 5% - x) = x
5 + 0.25 - 5x = x
5.25 = 5x+ x
6x = 5.25
x = 5.25 / 6
x = 87.5%
