At the present time, Tamin Co. does not have any preferred stock outstanding but is looking to include preferred stock un its capital structure in the future. Tamin has found some institutional investors that are willing to purchase its preferred stock issue provided that it pays a perpetual dividend of $13 per share. If the investors pay $130.45 per share, Taemin's cost of preferred stock will _____.

a. 11.5%
b. 10.0%
c. 9.5%
d. 9.0%

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Dividends are fixed. ⇒ Consistent with Debt

Fixed dividends makes preferred shares consistent with debt because debt repayments are made in equal payments as well.

Usually has no specified maturity date ⇒ Consistent with Equity.

Equity has no set maturity date unlike debt and preferred stock has no maturity date either so is much like equity in this regard.

Cost of preferred stock.

Preferred stock is like a perpetuity. The cost of preferred stock is therefore:

= Constant dividend / Price of stock

= 13 / 130.45

= 9.97%

= 10%

A firm is paying an annual dividend of $10.00 for its preferred stock which is selling for $66.00. There is a selling cost of $3.00. What is the after-tax cost of preferred stock if the firm's tax rate is 31%

Answers

Answer:

15.87%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the after-tax cost of preferred stock

Using this formula

Kp=Dividend/Price − floatation costs per share

Let plug in the formula

Kp=$10.00/$66-$3.00

Kp=$10.00/$63

Kp= 0.1587*100

Kp=15.87%

What is the effective annual cost of skipping the discount and paying at the end of the net period for the following credit terms: 6/10, net 70

Answers

Answer:

APR = 38.829%

APY = 45.70%

Explanation:

Missing word "Calculate the APR and the APY."

Discount % = 6%

Total period = 70

Discount period = 10

i. APR = (Discount% / [100% - Discount%]) * (365 / [Total period - Discount period])

APR = [6% / 100%-6%] * [365 / 70 - 10]

APR = 6%/94% * 365/60

APR = 0.06382979 * 6.083333

APR = 0.38829787

APR = 38.83%

ii. APY = (1 + [Discount% / {100% - Discount%}])^(365/[Total period - Discount period]) - 1

APY = [1 + [6%/ / 100%-6%]^(365/70-10) - 1

APY = {1 + 0.06382979]^6.083333 - 1

APY = 1.06382979^6.083333 - 1

APY = 1.45704250704 - 1

APY = 0.45704250704

APY = 45.70%

Price elasticity for a good depends on the share of a consumer's budget spent on a good. Other things being equal, which of the following goods has the most elastic demand? Fish food Monthly cell phone bill Thumbtacks

Answers

Answer:

Monthly Cell Phone Bill

Explanation:

Other things being equal, the higher the price of a good relative to a consumer's income, the greater the price elasticity of demand. Hence, the price elasticity of demand for low-priced items, such as thumbtacks and fish food, tends to be lower than the price elasticity of demand for relatively expensive items, such as monthly cell phone bill, that represent a more significant fraction of a consumer's annual income.

Be sure to consider not just the price, however, but also the overall portion of a consumer's annual income spent on an item. For example, one latte costs only $3.00, but for daily coffee drinkers the annual expense could be around $1,000. The elasticity of demand for lattes is therefore likely to be higher than that for other low-priced items (such as thumbtacks) that may need to be purchased only a few times annually.

Answer:

The price elasticity of demand is -9.00.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

The table below shows the weekly demand for machine screws at the local hardware store.

Price (dollars per pack of 100 screws)   Quantity (packs of 100 screws)

                     $5.00                                                              0

                       4.50                                                              60

                       4.00                                                              120

                      3.50                                                               180

                      3.00                                                              240

                      2.50                                                               300

                      2.00                                                               360

                       1.50                                                               420

                       1.00                                                               480

                       0.50                                                              540

                        0.0                                                               600

Using the starting point method, what is the price elasticity of demand from a price of $4.50 to a price of $4.00 per pack of 100 screws:

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

New quantity = 120

Old quantity = 60

New price = $4.00

Old price = $4.50

Using the formula for calculating the starting point method for elasticity of demand, we have:

Price elasticity of demand = ((New quantity - Old quantity) / (New price - Old price)) * (Old price / Old quantity) = ((120 - 60) / (4.00 - 4.50)) * (4.50 / 60) = -9.00

Therefore, the price elasticity of demand is -9.00.

The price elasticity of demand is -9.00.

Given information

New quantity = 120

Old quantity = 60

New price = $4.00

Old price = $4.50

Now, we will use the formula below for calculating the starting point method for elasticity of demand.

Price elasticity of demand = ((New quantity - Old quantity) / (New price - Old price)) * (Old price / Old quantity)

Price elasticity of demand = ((120 - 60) / (4.00 - 4.50)) * (4.50 / 60)

Price elasticity of demand = -9.00

In conclusion, the price elasticity of demand is -9.00.

The demand curve for gasoline slopes downward and the supply curve for gasoline slopes upward. The production of the 200th gallon of gasoline entails the following:
• a private cost of $3.03;
• a social cost of $3.23;
• a value to consumers of $3.39.
Refer to Scenario 10-1. Suppose the equilibrium quantity of gasoline is 220 gallons; that is, Q MARKET = 220. Then the equilibrium price of a gallon could be:________
a. $3.08.
b.$2.77.
c. $2.45.
d. $3.69.

Answers

Answer:

a. $3.08

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what the equilibrium price of a gallon could be:

Based on the information given the Private cost is $3.03 while the Social cost is $3.23 which indicates that Social cost lies ABOVE the private cost and since The MARKET EQUILIBRIUM tend to occurs when Private value=Private cost which means that the EQUILIBRIUM PRICE lies between $3.03 and $3.23, Therefore the EQUILIBRIUM PRICE of a gallon would be $3.08 because it lies between $3.03 and $3.23.

Answer:

Please find the required diagram in the attached image

Explanation:

Only a change in the price of a good leads to a movement along the demand curve of that good. Also, only a change in the price of the good would lead to an increase or decrease in the quantity demanded of that good.

Other factors other than the change in the price of the good would lead to a shift of the demand curve. Some of those factors include :

1. a change in consumers' expectation

2. a change in the taste of consumers

3. a change in income

As a result of the study, there would be an increase in the demand for coffee. This would shift the demand curve to the right. As a result, there would an increase in equilibrium price and quantity

McoLawn Ltd manufactures a single product, an ecologically designed electronic lawn-mower, which they sell for £40. The variable costs of the lawn-mower are as follows: Fixed costs are £140,000. McoLawn Ltd. have budgeted profits for the coming year at £120,000. How many lawn-mowers must McoLawn Ltd. sell in order to reach budgeted profit levels? Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer: 20,000 lawn mowers

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the number of lawn mowers needed to reached the budgeted profit levels is:

= (Fixed costs + Budgeted profit) / Contribution margin

Contribution margin = Selling price - Variable cost

= 40 - (14 + 8 + 5)

= 40 - 27

= $13

Number of lawn-mowers required:

= (140,000 + 120,000) / 13

= 20,000 lawn mowers

1-a. How much will net operating income increase (decrease) per month if the monthly advertising budget increases by $8,400, the monthly sales volume increases by 100 units, and the total monthly sales increase by $9,500? 1-b. Should the advertising budget be increased?

Answers

Answer:

a. Income before advertising budget increase:

= Contribution margin - Fixed costs

= (38 * 3,600) - 79,000

= $57,800

Income after advertising budget increases:

= Sales - Variable expenses - Fixed expenses

Sales = (3,600 + 100 units) * 95 per unit

= $351,500

Variable expenses = 60% * 351,500

= $210,900

Fixed expenses = 79,000 + 8,400 advertising

= $87,400

Income = 351,500 - 210,900 - 87,400

= $53,200

b. Income decreased with the increase in advertising so Advertising budget should not be increased.

By identifying the right people for the job and discussing the time frame of each activity with them, you can figure out how long each activity should take.The availability of resources, such as workers, to complete a project is referred to as resource availability. Obtaining commitments for equipment and workers in a project prevents days of no work from occurring. It is necessary to stick to a strict schedule.Imposed dates are deadlines for completing specific parts of a project. Perhaps your permit is only valid for 30 days. If this is the case, you must complete your project within the specified time frame. This date was not chosen; it was imposed by the permit.The term "cash flow" refers to the money that comes in from the financial backer as well as the money that goes out to the employees and subcontractors.

Answers

Answer:

B) If the firm does not exit the industry in the long run its demand curve will shift to the left.

However, this cannot be true because a monopolistic competitive firm produces unique products that tend to have its specific customers. These customers, in the long run, will demand more goods and services of the firms which will be affected positively by a lot of reasons including prices of related goods, increase in salary, better economy at large, etc.

An example of fast tracking a project schedule would be to overlap the design and production phases for a design-to-production project, where the conventional approach would be to move on to construction only after completing the design phase.
a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Project management can be defined as the process of designing, planning, developing, leading and execution of a project plan or activities using a set of skills, tools, knowledge, techniques and experience to achieve the set goals and objectives of creating a unique product or service.

Generally, projects are considered to be temporary because they usually have a start-time and an end-time to complete, execute or implement the project plan.

Furthermore, the main purpose of project management is working toward a common goal.

This ultimately implies that, project managers should ensure adequate attention and time is taken to identify, analyze and manage capital, raw materials, people, system of tasks and other resources, so as to effectively and efficiently achieve a common goal with all project stakeholders.

The fundamentals of Project Management includes;

1. Project initiation

2. Project planning

3. Project execution

4. Monitoring and controlling of the project.

5. Adapting and closure of project.

In the execution of a project, delaying a task normally affects the start or finishing time of the other tasks (successors) in a project.

The amount of time that is permitted for an activity to be delayed without delaying the early start date of any immediately following (succeeding) activities refers to the free slack or having an adverse effect on entire project.

A project schedule can be defined as a plan that comprises of the deliverables, activities and milestones with respect to a project, especially by including the intended start and finish dates.

The time for the implementation or execution of a project can be fast-tracked by a project manager.

For example, you can fast-track a design-to-production project by overlapping the design and production phases; especially by moving on to construction only after completing the design phase.

Answers

Answer:

Break-even point in units= 1,500

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price= $600

Unitary variable cost= $420

Fixed cost= $270,000

To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 270,000 / (600 - 420)

Break-even point in units= 1,500
