In determining whether a company's financial condition is improving or deteriorating over time, horizontal analysis of financial statement data would be more useful than vertical analysis.a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

a. True.

Explanation:

In determining whether a company's financial condition is improving or deteriorating over time, horizontal analysis of financial statement data would be more useful than vertical analysis.

In Financial accounting, Horizontal analysis can be defined as an analysis and evaluation of a financial statement which illustrates or gives information about changes in the amount of corresponding financial statement items, benchmarks or financial ratio over a specific period of time. It is one of the most important technique that is used to measure how a business is doing financially. Hence, it is also referred to as the trend analysis.

Under the horizontal analysis of financial statement, we use the financial statements of two or more periods; earliest and latter periods.

Generally, the earliest is chosen as the base period while all other items on the statement for a latter period will be compared with the items on the statement of the base period.

A bond par value is $1,000 and the coupon rate is 5.1 percent. The bond price was $946.02 at the beginning of the year and $979.58 at the end of the year. The inflation rate for the year was 2.6 percent. What was the bond's real return for the year

Answers

Answer:

the bond's real return for the year is 6.18 %.

Explanation:

First find the nominal return of the bond then the real return as follows :

PV = - $946.02

Pmt = $1,000 × 5.10% = $51

P/yr = 1

FV = $979.58

n = 1

r = ?

Using a Financial Calculator, the nominal return of the bond, r is 8.9385 %.

Real Return = ( 1 + nominal return) / (1 + inflation rate) -1

                   =  (1 + 0.089395) / (1 + 0.026) - 1

                   = 0.0618 or 6.18 %

On 12/31/21, Oriole Corporation paid $7030000 to acquire Ivanhoe. What amount of goodwill should Oriole record as a result of this purchase?

Answers

Answer: $2,420,000‬

Explanation:

Goodwill is the amount over the fair value of a company that it is purchased for.

Goodwill = Acquisition price - Net Assets

Net Assets = Assets - Liabilities

= (6,900,000 + 410,000) - 2,700,000

= $4,610,000‬

Goodwill = 7,030,000 - 4,610,000

You are calculating the performance of your project. If the actual cost is $80,000, the planned value is $70,000 and the earned value is $65,000, what is the cost performance index?

Answers

Answer:

Cost performance index is 81.25%

Explanation:

Actual cost = $80,000

Planned value = $70,000

Earned value = $65,000

Cost performance index (CPI) is the ratio of earned value to actual cost and can be used to estimate the projected cost of completing the project.

CPI = EV / AC

= $65,000 / $80,000

= 0.8125

= 0.8125 x 100

= 81.25%

Ray's Satellite Emporium wishes to determine the best order size for its best-selling satellite dish (model TS111). Ray has estimated the annual demand for this model at 1,500 units. His cost to carry one unit is $80 per year per unit, and he has estimated that each order costs $22 to place.
Using the EOQ model, how many should Ray order each time?

Answers

Answer:

28.72 units

Explanation:

Calculation of how many should Ray order each time using EOQ model

Using this formula

EOQ= √2DS/H

Where,

D=Annual demand 1,500 units

S=Order costs $22

H=Holding Costs $80 per unit

Let plug in the formula

EOQ=√2*1,500*$22/$80

EOQ=√66,000/$80

EOQ=√825

EOQ=28.72 units

Therefore Using the EOQ model, Ray should order 28.72 units each time.

an investment under consideration has a payback of six years and a cost of 876000. Assume the cash flows are conventional. If the required return is 12 percent, what is the worst-case NPV?

Answers

Answer:

-43291.14

Explanation:

Npv = net present value

Payback = 6 years

Required return = 12 percent

Cost = 876000

When we talk about last case npv we mean that cash flow has gotten to its last future. The entire cost of 876000 will have to be paid after 6 years and after that future cash flows would exist.

Npv = -876000 +(876000/1.12)⁶

= -876000+443808.86

= = -43291.14

Potential GDP of an economy is $12 billion. Real (Actual) GDP is $20 Billion. Marginal propensity to consume is 0.75. What level of Government spending is required to achieve Full employment

Answers

Answer:

Government spending required  = $2 billion

Explanation:

The required amount of GDP to achieve the full employment GDP =

Potential GDP - Actual

that is 20 - 12 = $8 billion.

But note that a government spending of less than $8 billion would be required to achieve an increase of 8 billion in real GDP. This is so because of   expenditure multiplier effect.

The expenditure multiplier is the amount by which the aggregate output would increase with an increase in any of the expenditure components.

It is calculated as follows;

Multiplier = 1/(1-MPC)

For this question ,

Expenditure multiplier = 1/(1-0.75) = 4

This implies that $1 change in any of the aggregate expenditure would lead a $4 worth of change in GDP.

Government spending required  is determined as

Desired change in real GDP/expenditure multiplier

= $8 billion/4 = $2 billion

Government spending required  = $2 billion

Rent expense of $3,000 is allocated to Department A and Department B based on square footage. Department A has 5,000 square feet and Department B has 2,500 square feet.

The dollar amount of rent expense allocated to Department B is:_______

Answers

Answer:

$1,000

Explanation:

Calculation for the Dollar amount of rent expense allocated to department B

Using this formula

Expense allocated to Department B= Rent expense allocated to Department A and B* Department B square feet/Department A and Department B Square foot

Let plug in the formula

Expense allocated to department B =$3,000*2,500/5,000+2,500

Expense allocated to department B= $3,000 * 2,500 / 7,500

Expense allocated to department B =$7,500,000/7,500

Expense allocated to department B= $1,000

Therefore the Dollar amount of rent expense allocated to department B will be $1,000

5. Will the monetary authorities in Stan have to buy up a surplus of their currency or sell their currency to meet a shortage of their currency to keep the exchange rate at 0.50 dollars per rupee?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

1. At 0fficial exchange rate:

100 * 0.5 = $50

what I want to buy would be purchased at $50

at market exchange rate:

0.25 x 100 = $25

products bought from this place are not a good deal as I am paying more than the market exchange rate.

2. at equilibrium exchange rate:

100 x 0.25% = $25

the price is $25

3. from answers 1 and 2, I will not want demand Stan's rupees. the products are costly to get.

4. Stan's currency is obviously overvalued. the people from this country now has increased purchasing power so they can purchase goods in dollars, therefore they would be supplying their currency.

5. They will have to buy up the surplus of rupees so that they can easily keep up with maintaining the rupee at half a dollar.

Complete Question:

Ford Motor Company is discussing new ways to recapitalize the firm and raise additional capital. Its current capital structure has a 10% weight in equity, 25% in preferred stock, and 65% in debt. The cost of equity capital is 17%, the cost of preferred stock is 11%, and the pretax cost of debt is 9%. What is the weighted average cost of capital for Ford if its marginal tax rate is 40%?

Answer:

7.96%

Explanation:

We can calculate WACC using the formula:

WACC = Cost of equity * Equity %age / 100%         +          

After Tax Cost of Debt * Debt %age / 100%            +        

Cost of Preferred Stock * Preferred Stock %age / 100%

Here,

Cost of equity is 17%

Cost of preferred stock is 11%

Post tax cost of debt = Pre-Tax cost *  (1 - Tax rate)

This implies,

Post tax cost of debt = 9% * (1 - 40%) =  5.4%

Equity weight is 10% weight in equity

Preferred stock weight is 25%

Debt Weight is 65%

By putting value in the formula given in the attachment, we have:

WACC = 17% * (10% / 100%)      +     11% * (25% / 100%)    +    5.4% * (65% / 100%)

WACC = 1.7%   +   2.75%   +    3.51%

WACC = 7.96%

The equipment cost Princess Corporation $3,600,000. The present value of the lease payments is $3,961,183. The lease is appropriately classified as a sales-type lease. Assuming the interest rate for this lease is 10%, how much interest revenue will Princess record in 2022 on this lease

Answers

Answer:

$293,980.13

Explanation:

Calculation of how much of the interest revenue Princess will record in 2022 on the lease

First Step is to find the interest for year 2021

Present Value January 1, 2021 $3,961,183

Less Payment January 1, 2021 (675,000)

=$3,286,183

Hence,

2021 Interest =$3,286,183× 10%

2021 Interest = $328,618.3

Second Step

Second Payment $675,000

Less Interest (328,618.3)

Reduced balance $346,381.7

Third Step is to find the how much interest revenue will Princess record in 2022 on the lease

2021 $3,286,183

Less Reduced balance (346,381.7)

January 1 2022 Liability = $2,939,801.3× 10%

2022 Interest Revenue =$293,980.13

Therefore the amount of interest revenue that Princess will record in 2022 on the lease will be $293,980.13

The risk-free rate is 6% and the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 13%. a. Calculate the required rate of return on a security with a beta of 1.25.

Answers

Answer:

The required rate of return is r = 0.1475 or 14.75%

Explanation:

The required rate of return is the minimum return that investors demand/expect on a stock based on the systematic risk of the stock as given by the beta. The expected or required rate of return on a stock can be calculated using the CAPM equation.

The equation is,

r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)

Where,

rRF is the risk free raterM is the return on market

r = 0.06 + 1.25 * (0.13 - 0.06)

r = 0.1475 or 14.75%

Oligopolies are characterised by :

price setting firms

product differentiation

profit maximisation

high barriers to entry or exit of firms

downward sloping demand curve

the action taken by the other airlines is known as tacit collusion.

Tacit collusion is when other companies adopt the price of the price leader

a. Issued for Cash = ($312,000 * 12/12) + ($29,700 * 8/12)

= $312,000 + $19,800

= $331,800

b. Issued in a stock dividend: Shares issued in the stock dividend are assumed outstanding from the beginning of  the year

= ($312,000 * 12/12) + ($29,700 * 12/12)

= $312,000 + $29,700

= $341,700

Yan Yan Corp. has a $5,000 par value bond outstanding with a coupon rate of 4.6 percent paid semiannually and 21 years to maturity. The yield to maturity on this bond is 4.1 percent.

What is the price of the bond?

Answers

Answer:

Price of the bond = $4,122.36

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 Yan Yan Corp.  be worked out as follows:  

Step 1  

PV of interest payments  

Semi annul interest payment  

= 4.6% × 5,000 × 1/2 = 115

Semi-annual yield = 4.1%/2 = 2.05  % per six months  

Total period to maturity (in months)   = (2 × 21) = 41 periods

PV of interest =  

115  × (1- (1+0.0205)^(-21)/0.0205)=1,946.47

Step 2  

PV of Redemption Value  

= 5000 × (1.0205^(-41)   = 2,175.89

Step 3:Price of the bond

Total present Value = 1,946.47  +  2,175.89  = 4,122.36

Price of the bond = $4,122.36

 

g Mason Company paid its annual property taxes of $240,000 on February 15, 20X9. Mason also anticipates that its annual repairs expense for 20X9 will be $1,200,000. This amount is usually incurred and paid in July and August when operations are shut down so that machinery and equipment can be repaired. What amount should Mason deduct for property taxes and repairs in each quarter for 20X9?

Answers

Answer:

$360,000

Explanation:

The total cost would be estimated as the expense anticipated plus the property taxes paid previously.

Now

Total Cost = $240,000 Property Taxes paid      +     $1,200,000 Property repairs anticipated

= $1,440,000

Now we will distribute the annual cost over the four quarters which mean we will divide the total annual cost by 4.

Quarterly Expenses = $1,440,000 / 4     = $360,000

You manufacture wine goblets. In mid- June you receive an order for 10,000 goblets from Japan. Payment of ¥400,000 is due in mid- December. You expect the yen to rise from its present rate of $1=¥107 to $1 to ¥120 by December 2020. You can borrow yen at 6% a year. What should you do?

Answers

Answer:

I will borrow yen at 6% a year.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Payment for 10,000 = ¥400,000

Spot rate = $1 = ¥107

Forward rate = $1 to ¥120

Borrow ¥400,000, the interest cost = ¥24,000 = $224.30/2 (¥24,000/107) = $112.15 for six months

Value of ¥400,000 borrowed in dollars = $3,738.32 (¥400,000/107)

Loan Repayment of ¥400,000 in dollars = $3,333,33 (¥400,000/120)

Gain from forward contract = $404.99

Interest cost for borrowing =      112.15

Overall debt hedging gain =  $292.84

By borrowing yen at 6% per annum, you will make an overall gain of $292.84.  This is not comparable to the foreign exchange loss of $404.99 that you will incur without borrowing yen.  Taking advantage of the the debt hedging, the supplier is able to save foreign exchange loss.

On January 1, the listed spot and futures prices of a Treasury bond were 95.4 and 95.6. You sold $100,000 par value Treasury bonds and purchased one Treasury bond futures contract.

If you were to liquidate your position, your profits would be a Group of answer choices $125 profit. $1,060.50 loss. None of the options are correct. $125 loss. $1,062.50 profit.

Answers

Answer:

None of the options are correct.

Explanation:

We start by calculating the net change of the treasury bond position.

= $95,125 - $95,000

= $125

The long treasury bond position gains $125 after a month.

We will also calculate the net change of the treasury bond futures contract.

= $94,125 - $95,187.50

= -$1,062.50

Therefore, Net profits is;

= $125 - $1,062.50

= -$937.50
