Answer:
the "substantial user" of the facility built with the proceeds of the issue.
Explanation:
An Industrial revenue bond (IRB) can be defined as any municipal debt security issued by a local or state government agency with respect to a private firm which intend to undergo a particular project such as building facilities, purchasing heavy machinery or equipments.
The interest income received from older Industrial revenue bonds (IRB) may be taxable to the holder at regular income tax rates if the holder is the "substantial user" of the facility built with the proceeds of the issue because in the true sense it is only beneficial to the holder and not the larger community.

You want to make a one-time deposit today that will increase in value to $100 at the end of this year. Which rate of interest will allow you to deposit the least amount today to reach this goal
Answer:
The rate of interest is 11.111%
The Deposit should be $90 today.
The future value at the end of this year will be $100.
Explanation:
Future value of $100
Present value of $100 at 11.111% = $100/11.111 = $90
The future value of a deposit today is the value after a period of one year or so periods. The rate of interest produces the discount factor that can calculate the present value of $100. To make a one-time deposit of $90 today will increase in value to $100 using an interest rate of 11.111%.

c. Low-income developing countries are catching up to high-income industrial countries.
Explanation:
The evidence which shows that low income developing countries are catching up to high-income industrial countries could be found in the series of developmental strides made by some countries like Rwanda, Kenya, Tanzania, Indonesia, Vietnam etc over the years. Most of their achievements is at par with most European countries in different sectors such as educational, and social sectors.
A firm has a debt-to-equity of 0.69 and a market-to-book ratio of 3.0. What is the ratio of the book value of debt to the market value of equity?
Answer:
0.23
Explanation:
Debt to Equity Ratio = Total debt/ Total common equity
Market to book Ratio = Market price per share / Book value per share
Book debt to Market equity Ratio = Debt to Equity Ratio / Market to book Ratio
Book debt to Market equity Ratio = 0.69 / 3
Book debt to Market equity Ratio = 0.23
Therefore, the ratio is 0.23

What is the standard deviation of each asset? Hint: Make sure to round all intermediate calculations to at least seven (7) decimal places. The input instructions, phrases in parenthesis after each answer box, only apply for the answers you will type. a. What is the expected return of asset A?
Answer and Explanation:
a. The computation of expected return of each assets is shown below:-
Expected Return on Asset A in state is
= 0.39 × 0.02 + 0.45 × 0.02 + 0.16 × 0.02
= 0.02
Expected Return on Asset B in state is
= 0.39 × 0.25 + 0.45 × 0.06 + 0.16 × -0.04
= 0.1181
Expected Return on Asset C in state is
= 0.39 × 0.35 + 0.45 × 0.19 + 0.16 × -0.22
= 0.1868
b. The computation of variance of each asset is shown below:-
Variance of Assets A is
= 0.39 × (0.02 - 0.020)^2 + 0.45 × (0.02 - 0.020)^2 + 0.16 × (0.02 - 0.020)^2
= 0
Variance of Assets B is
= 0.39 × (0.25 - 0.1181)^2 + 0.45 × (0.06 - 0.1181)^2 + 0.16 × (-0.04 - 0.1181)^2
= 0.0123
Variance of Assets C is
= 0.39 × (0.35 - 0.1868)^2 + 0.45 × (0.19 - 0.1868)^2 + 0.16 × (-0.22 - 0.1868)^2
= 0.0369
c. The computation of standard deviation of each asset is shown below:-
Standard Deviation of A is
= (0.39 × (0.02 - 0.020)^2 + 0.45 × (0.02 - 0.020)^2 + 0.16 × (0.02 - 0.020)^2)^0.5
= 0
Standard Deviation of B is
= (0.39 × (0.25 - 0.1181)^2 + 0.45 × (0.06 - 0.1181)^2 + 0.16 × (-0.04 - 0.1181)^2)^0.5
= 0.1109
Standard Deviation of C is
= (0.39 × (0.35 - 0.1868)^2 + 0.45 × (0.19 - 0.1868)^2 + 0.16 × (-0.22 - 0.1868)^2)^0.5

Company X's current assets increased by $40 million from 2007 to 2008, while the company's current liabilities increased by $25 million over the same period. The cash impact of the change in working capital was:
a. A decrease of $15 million
b. An increase of $15 million
c. An increase of $40 million
d. An increase of $25 million
Answer:
b. An increase of $15 million
Explanation:
The computation of the cash impact of the change in working capital is shown below:
As we know that
Working capital = Current assets - current liabilities
So, the change in working capital is
= Increase in current assets - increased in current liabilities
= $40 million - $25 million
= $15 million
Hence, the b option is correct

In this case, the most appropriate is the use of a cross-functional team.
This team is formed by several professionals with knowledge, techniques, skills and resources to help the company achieve its goals and objectives.
The benefits of forming a cross-functional team is to aggregate the potential of each member in a common objective, which ensures greater flexibility of ideas, greater innovation, greater exchange of experiences, which guarantees greater team engagement, greater possibility of designing solutions and greater efficiency in organizational processes.
In the liquidation of a partnership, any gain or loss on the realization of non-cash assets should be allocated:_____.
a. first to creditors and the remainder to partners.
b. to the partners on the basis of their capital balances.
c. only after all creditors have been paid.
d. to the partners on the basis of their income-sharing ratio.
Answer:
D. To the partners on the basis of their income-sharing ratio.
Explanation:
Partnership liquidation can be easily seen to come into existence indefinitely through periodic changes within the ownership, they are seen to occur by circumstances which are totally uncommon occurrence.
The form of the dissolution is irrelevant, whether by absenting by personal decision of individual member or wholesale departure and formal liquidation. The end result will be the same. The primary dream of these harmonious and synchronical growth of the firm will be seen to come to an end.
This is why it is best shared to the partners on the basis of their income sharing ratio.
Sonny's BBQ Company recently issued $85 par value preferred stock that pays an annual dividend of $9. Analysts estimate that the stock has a beta of 1.01. The current T-bill rate is 2.4%. The S&P 500's expected return is 12.1%. Assuming that CAPM holds, what is the intrinsic value of this preferred stock?
Answer:
Intrinsic value=$73.77
Explanation:
The Dividend Valuation Model(DVM) is a technique used to value the worth of an asset.
According to this model, the value of an asset is the sum of the present values of the future cash flows would that arise from the asset discounted at the required rate of return.
Price = D/Kp
D- Dividend payable
Kp- cost of preferred stock
So will need to work out the cost of equity using CAPM
The capital asset pricing model (CAPM): relates the price of a share to the market risk or systematic risk. The systematic risk is that which affects all the all the economic agents, e.g inflation, interest rate e.t.c
This model is considered superior to DVM. Hence, we will use the CAPM
Using the CAPM , the expected return on a asset is given as follows:
E(r)= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)
E(r) =? , Rf- 2.4%, Rm- 12.1% β- 1.01
E(r) = 2.4% + 1.23×(12.1- 2.4)% = 12.20 %
Cost of preferred stock= 12.20 %
Using the dividend valuation model
Intrinsic value = 9/0.1220=73.77
Intrinsic value=$73.77
A cloth manufacturing firm is deciding whether or not to invest in new machinery. The machinery costs $45,000 and is expected to increase cash flows in the first year by $25,000 and in the second year by $30,000. The firm’s current fixed costs are $9,000 and current marginal cost are $15. The firm currently charges $18 per unit.
Required:
If the interest rate is 5% then. what is the present value of the cash flows?
Answer:
$51,020.40
Explanation:
We use the formula PV = FV * (1 + r)^n for finding the present value
There are two cash flows, one that occur in year 1 at $25,000 and second that occur in year 2 at $30,000.
Find the PV of this cash flow at r = 5% and n = 1 and 2 =
25000(1+5%)^-1 + 30000(1 + 5%)^-2
25,000(1+0.05)^-1 + 30,000(1 + 0.05)^-2
25,000(1.05^)-1 + 30,000(1.05)^-2
25,000(0.952381) + 30,000(0.907029)
23,809.525 + 27,210.87
=$51,020.40
Thus, the present value of the cash flows is $51,020.40
A U.S. manufacturing company operating a subsidiary in an LDC (less-developed country) shows the following results:
U.S. LDC
Sales (units) 100,000 20,000
Labor (hours) 20,000 15,000
Raw materials (currency) $20,000 FC 20,000
Capital equipment (hours) 60,000 5,000
a. Calculate partial labor and capital productivity figures for the parent and subsidiary. Do the results seem confusing?
b. Compute the multifactor productivity figures for labor and capital together. Do the results make more sense?
c. Calculate raw material productivity figures (units/$ where $1=FC 10). Explain why these figures might be greater in the subsidiary.
Answer:
a. Labor Productivity:
Country Sales (Units) Labour (hours) Productivity (Sales/Labour hours)
U.S 100,000 20,000 5 units / hours
LDC 20,000 15,000 1.33 units/ hours
Capital Productivity
Country Sales (Units) Capital (hours) Productivity (Sales/Capital hours)
U.S 100,000 60,000 1.67 units / hour
LDC 20,000 5,000 4 units / hours
Conclusion: Yes, the result seems confusing. The labour productivity in U.S. is higher than LDC while the capital productivity in U.S. is lower than LDC which is contradictory.
b. Multi-factor productivity for Labor and Capital
Country Sales Input Productivity
(Units) (Labor + Capital) (units/hours)
U.S. 100,000 80,000 1.25 units/hour
(20,000 + 60,000)
LDC 20,000 20,000 1 units/hour
(15,000 + 5,000)
Conclusion: Yes it make sense as multi-factor productivity is better than partial productivity. Labor and capital are subtitles and that gives better presentation of the productivity.
c. Raw material productivity
Country Sales Raw material Productivity
(Units) (Currency) (units/hours)
U.S. 100,000 $20,000 5 units per dollar
LDC 20,000 = $2,000 10 units per dollar
Conclusion: The figures are greater in subsidiary because the price paid for raw material is much slower than the parent country.
Note: $1 = FC 10
$20,000 = FC 10
FC = $20,000 / 10 = $2,000
A customer wishes to purchase $100,000 face amount of municipal bonds that the broker-dealer does not have in inventory. Under MSRB rules, the firm should:
Answer:
contact enough dealers so that a reasonable market quote is obtained . when a municipal dealer acts in an agency capacity, the price charged must be representative of the market for that type of security. There is no requirement to obtain a pre-set number of quotes (as a contrast, FINRA requires that a minimum of 3 quotes be obtained for non-NASDAQ OTC issues, meaning OTCBB or Pink Sheet issues), nor is there a requirement to direct the customer to a dealer that physically has those bonds. The dealer would not sell short the bonds to the customer, since short covering is very difficult in the thinly traded municipal market.
An assembly line with 17 tasks is to be balanced. The longest task is 2.4 minutes, and the total time for all tasks is 18 minutes. The line will operate for 450 minutes per day.Required:a. What are the minimum and maximum cycle times? b. What range of daily output is theoretically possible for the line? c. What is the minimum number of workstations needed if the maximum output rate is to be sought?d. What cycle time will provide an output rate of 125 units per day?
Answer
a)Minumum cycle time = 2.4 Minutes And Maximum cycle time = 18 Minutes
b)=187.5 units per day and 25 units per day
c) 8 workstation
d)2.6min/cycle
Explanation:
Given:
output rate = 125 units per day
Operating time= 450 minutes per day
What are the minimum and maximum cycle times?
Minimum Cycle time = duration of the longest task
Therefore,Minimum cycle time = 2.4 minutes
Maximum cycle time = addition of the task
Maximum Cycle Time = 18 minutes
Therefore, Minumum cycle time = 2.4 Minutes And Maximum cycle time = 18 Minutes
B)B)What range of daily output is theoretically possible for the line?
Range of daily output = Operating time / minimum Cycle time
At 2.4 minutes Cycletime
= 450/2.4
=187.5 units per day
At Cycle time 18 Minutes
= 450/18
Cycle time 18 minutes = 25 units per day
C)What is the minimum number of workstations needed if the maximum output rate is to be sought?
number of workstation=(D× summation of all task)/Operating time
number of workstation=(187.5*18)/450
= 7.5= 8 workstation
D)What cycle time will provide an output rate of 125 units per day?
cycle time= Operating time/output rate
=450/125
= 2.6min/cycle
. A particular parcel of real estate (land) is sold for $20,000,000 and was originally purchased for $10,000,000. On a taxable sale, explain a circumstance (type of investor, intent, entity, etc.) that would pay the following U.S. federal income tax results on the $10,000,000 gain (exclude the 3.8% net investment income tax and any state taxes in the calculation):
Question Completion:
Choices: a. No tax liability on the sale b. $2,000,000 of tax c. $2,960,000 of tax d. $2,100,000 of tax
Answer:
b. $2,000,000 of tax for individuals
Explanation:
Long-term capital gains tax is a tax on profits from the sale of an asset which an investor has held for more than a year. The approved long-term capital gains tax rates are 0%, 15% or 20% depending on your taxable income bracket and whether you are filing as a single or jointly as married. But, an important point to note is that long-term capital gains tax rates are generally lower than short-term capital gains tax rates, thus encouraging investors to hold assets for a longer time. Short-term capital gains tax rates are the rates applicable to the normal individual income tax brackets.
Suppose that on August 14, 2019, an antique woven rug handmade in Canada is priced at CAD 1,100. The approximate U.S. dollar price of the rug would be
Answer:
USD 825.95Explanation:
Step one:
To tackle this problem we need data from historical chart.
From historical chart, on August 14, 2019, 1 USD is equivalent to CAD 1.3318
Step two:
From the historical data we need to perform conversion on the data to get the USD equivalent of the CAD given in the problem
Hence
if 1 USD = CAD 1.3318 then
x USD = CAD 1,100
by cross multiplying we have
x USD= 1,100/ 1.3318
x USD= 825.95
Hence as at August 14, 2019 CAD 1,100 is USD 825.95
Yellowstone Corporation has just announced the repurchase of $125,000 of its stock. The company has 39,000 shares outstanding and earnings per share of $3.29. The company stock is currently selling for $76.09 per share. What is the price–earnings ratio after the repurchase?
Answer:
The price–earnings ratio after the repurchase is 22.18
Explanation:
First calculate Numbers of new shares
New Shares = Old Shares - ( Repurchased Shares / Price per share )
New Shares = 39,000 - ( $125,000 / $76.09 )
New Shares = 39,000 - 1,642.79
New Shares = 37,357.21 shares
New compute the old earning
Old Earning = EPS x Numbers of old shares = $3.29 x 39,000 = $128,310
New compute revised Earning per share
Revised EPS = Earning / New shares = $128,310 / 37,357.21 shares = $3.43
Now we need to calculate the Price earning ratio
P/E Ratio = Price per share / Revised earning per share = $76.09 / $3.43 = 22.18 times

Revenue 100,000 COGS 40,000 Gross Profit 60,000 Salaries Marketing Rent Earnings Before Tax 23,000Income Tax 25% Net Income ?Since COGS are$40,000 and total sales are $100,000, the COGS margin percentage = 40,000 / 100,000 = 40%
Since earnings before taxes are $23,000 and taxes are 25%, then net income = $23,000 x (1 - 25%) = $23,000 x 75% = $17,250

Lake Incorporated purchased all of the outstanding stock of Huron Company, paying $1,000,000 cash. Lake assumed all of the liabilities. Book values and fair values of acquired assets and liabilities were: Book Value Fair Value Current assets (net) $ 190,000 $ 125,000 Property, plant, equip. (net) 650,000 765,000 Liabilities 255,000 255,000 Lake would record goodwill of
Answer:
Lake would record goodwill of $365,000
Explanation:
Fair value of net assets = Fair value of current asset + Fair value of property, plant and equipment
Fair value of net assets = $125,000 + $765,000
Fair value of net assets = $890,000
Fair market value = Fair value of net assets - Liabilities assumed
Fair market value = $890,000 - 255,000
Fair market value = $635,000
Goodwill = Consideration - Fair market value
= $1,000,000 - $635,000
= $365,000
Hence, the amount of goodwill is $365,000.
Food Shoppe Galore had the following information: Total market value of a company’s stock: $650 million Total market value of the company’s debt: $150 million What is the weighted average of the company’s debt?
Answer:
18.75%
Explanation:
Food Shoppe galore has a total market value stock of $650 million
The total market value of the company's debt is $150 million
The first step is to calculate the total market value of the company's capital
= $150,000,000 + $650,000,000
= $800,000,000
Therefore, the weighted average of the company's debt can be calculated as follows
= $150,000,000/$800,000,000
= 0.1875×100
= 18.75%

If the current interest rate is 5% and your semi-annual coupon paying bond has a duration of 5.33 years, how much will the price of the bond change if the interest rate increases by 1 basis point?
Answer:
Percentage change in price = -5.33 * 0.00005
Explanation:
Percentage change in price = - modified duration * (Change in yield in BP/100)
Percentage change in price = -5.33 * ((0.01/2)/100)
Percentage change in price = -5.33 * (0.005/100)
Percentage change in price = -5.33 * 0.00005
You must decide between $25,000 in cash today or $30,000 in cash to be received two years from now. If you can earn 8 percent interest on your investments, which is the better deal?
Answer:
The deal to receive $30000 is better.
Explanation:
To find the better deal we need to calculate the present value of $30000 and then compare it with the amount $25000. If the amount is greater than the $25000, then the amount should be received after the 2 years.
The given time period (n )= 2
Interest rate (r ) = 8%
The amount received after 2 years = $30000
[tex]\text{Present value of money} = \frac{Future \ value}{(1 + r)^n } \\= \frac{30000}{(1+0.08)^2} \\= $25720.16[/tex]
Since the amount is more than $25000 so the deal to receive the money after 2 years will be better.
