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 1

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.

Willow Corporation had three employees. Two of the employees worked full-time and earned salaries of $25,000 each. The third employee worked only part-time and earned $3,000. The employer timely paid state unemployment tax equal to 5.4 percent of each employee's wages up to $7,000. How much FUTA tax is due from Willow Corporation for 2019, after the credit for state unemployment taxes?

Answers

Answer:

$102

Explanation:

FUTA tax due from Willow Corporation for 2019, after the credit for state unemployment taxes, can be calculated by deducting the Paid state unemployment tax by the FUTA tax.

DATA

Paid State Unemployment Tax = (7,000+7,000+3,000) x 5.4%

Paid State Unemployment Tax = $918

FUTA tax rate in 2019 = 6%

Solution

FUTA tax (6% x $17,000) = $1,020

FUTA tax due =  $1,020 - $918

FUTA tax due = $102

Ending balance of allowance account = $59,400

Accounts receivable balance at 12/31/2019 = $59,400 / 6%

=$990,000

Calculate ending inventory and cost of goods sold for the year, assuming the company uses FIFO.

Answers

Answer:

$5,180 and $35,120

Explanation:

The computation of the cost of goods sold and the ending inventory is shown below:

There are 500 unit sold so according to that the cost of goods sold is

Jan 1        60 units         $66         $3,960

May 5      280 units       $69         $19,320

Nov 3       160 units      $74           $11,840

Cost of goods sold                        $35,120

Now the ending inventory is

Since there is a 70 ending inventory units i.e comes from

= 570 units - 500 units

= 70 units

So this should be at $74

i.e $5,180

Also note that the "1. Option A 2. Option B 3. Option C" are not actually part of the question.

The explanation to the answer is now provided as follows:

Note: This is an example of annuity. An annuity can be described as a series of payments made or income received at equal intervals.

Therefore, the relevant table in the question is the second table, i.e. table for the present value of an annuity of $1 at compound interest.

To calculate the present value (PV), the following for formula is used:

PV = ACI * PVA10% ............................ (1)

PV = Present value = ?

ACI = Annual cash inflows = $6,000

PVA = Present value of annuity of $1 at 10% for 4 years = 3.170

Note that the PVA is obtained for year 4 at 10% from the second table as already explained above.

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

PV = $6,000 * 3.170

PV = $19,020

Therefore, the correct option is option b. $19,020.

Rahman stock just paid a dividend of $3.00 per share. Future dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate of 6% per year. What is the value of the stock if the required return is 12%

Answers

Answer:value of stock for the required return of 12 % =  $53

Explanation:

Given

current dividend just paid = $3.00

dividend to grow at constant rate of 6%

required rate of return =12%

to calculate the value of stock for the requitred return of 12 % , we use the dividend growth model which is  

Current price = dividend ( 1 + growth rate )/ (required rate -growth rate )

                        = 3 x (1+6%) / 12-6 = 3 x 1.06 /6% =3.18/0.06=  $53

Therefore  value of stock for the requitred return of 12 % ,=  $53

Answers

Answer:

5.74%

Explanation:

WACC = weight of equity x cost of equity +  weight of debt x cost of debt x (1 - tax rate)

weight of debt =  D / (D + E) = 1.35/ (1.35 + 1) = 0.574468 = 57.4468%

weight of equity = 100% - 57.4468% = 42.5532%

let x represent pretax cost of debt

8.1% = 0.425532 x 14% +( 0.574468x) x 0.65

8.1% = 0.373404x + 5.957448%

White Lion Homebuilders is considering investing in a one-year project that requires an initial investment of $475,000. To do so, it will have to issue new common stock and will incur a flotation cost of 2.00%. At the end of the year, the project is expected to produce a cash inflow of $595,000. The rate of return that White Lion expects to earn on its project (net of its flotation costs) is:___________.

Answers

Answer:

22.81%

Explanation:

The computation of the rate of return is shown below:

= (cash inflow ÷ total cost) - 1

where,

Cash inflow is $595,000

And, the total cost is

= $475,000 + $475,000 × 2%

= $475,000 + $9,500

= $484,500

So, the rate of return is

= ($595,000 ÷ $484,500) - 1

= 22.81%

Hence, the rate of return is 22.81%

3. At an oral auction for a lamp, half of all bidders have a value of $50 and half have a value of $70. What is the expected winning bid if there are four bidders

Answers

Answer: $60

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that At an oral auction for a lamp, half of all bidders have a value of $50 and half have a value of $70.

The expected winning bid if there are four bidders goes thus:

Since there are four bidders, the probability that the winning bid is $50 is 1/2 and for $70, it's 1/2 as well based on the question.

The expected winning bid will now be:

= ($50 × 1/2) + ($70 × 1/2)

= ($50 × 0.5) + ($70 × 0.5)

= $25 + $35

= $60

Society's welfare is paramount. b. Morality should be a business practice. c. Corporate responsibility is essential. d. The golden rule should be written in stone.

Answers

Answer:

a. Society's welfare is paramount.

Explanation:

A commission on the freedom of press also known as "The Hutchins Commission" was formed in the United States of America (USA) during the World War II (WWII) by Robert Maynard Hutchins.

In 1947 after deliberating on the issues of press for four (4) years, the Hutchins Commission concluded that society's welfare is paramount, this is one of the two fundamental issues that the recommendations of the 1947 Hutchins Commission on social responsibility in journalism is based on. The commission stated that the development and stability of a society is influenced by the operations of the press and as such it is very important that the mass media (press) is socially responsible.

Some of the guidelines or recommendations made by the Hutchins Commission for the press are;

1. Present meaningful, reliable and accurate news to the general public; not opinions.

A one-year insurance policy was purchased on June 1 for $2,400. The adjusting entry on December 31 would be:

Answers

Answer:

Adjusting Journal Entry:

Debit Insurance Expense $1,400

Credit Prepaid Insurance $1,400

To record the insurance expense for the year (7 months).

Explanation:

This adjustment will cause the Prepaid Insurance account to remain $1,000.  This balance represents the insurance cost for 5 months having deducted the insurance cost for 7 months from June 1 to December 31.  So, in line with the accrual concept and the matching principle of generally accepted accounting principles, only $1,400 Insurance was incurred for the current year.  The balance will be charged to the account when the service is consumed.

At an output level of 415,400 units, you have calculated that the degree of operating leverage is 2.00. The operating cash flow is $58,000 in this case. Ignore the essect of taxes. What will be the new degree of operating leverage for output levels of 16,400 units and 14,400 units

Answers

Answer:

the new degree of operating leverage for output levels of 16,400 units and 14,400 units will be -0.0858  and - 0.0745 respectively.

Explanation:

From the given information:

the degree of operating the leverage at 415,400 units = [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{contribution \ \ margin}{operating \ \ income}}[/tex]

where contribution margin = 2 × 58000 =116000

If we assume that the sales price should be p and the variable cost  be q per unit .

Then, 415,400p - 415,400q = 116000

p - q = [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{116000}{415400}}[/tex]

p - q = 0.279  at 415400 unit

Contribution margin = 415400 × 0.279

Contribution margin = 115896.6

The operating income = contribution margin - fixed expense

58000 = 115896.6 - fixed expense

fixed expense = 115896.6 - 58000

fixed expense = 57896.6

However, when the output level is 16400 unit,

the contribution margin = 16400(p-q)

the contribution margin =  16400(0.279)

the contribution margin = 4575.6

The operating leverage = [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{contribution \ \ margin}{contribution \ \ margin - fixed \ \ costs}}[/tex]

The operating leverage = [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{4575.6}{4575.6 - 57896.6}}[/tex]

The operating leverage = [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{4575.6}{-53321}}[/tex]

The operating leverage = -0.0858

when the output level is 14400 unit,

the contribution margin = 14400(p-q)

the contribution margin =  14400(0.279)

the contribution margin = 4017.6

The operating leverage = [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{contribution \ \ margin}{contribution \ \ margin - fixed \ \ costs}}[/tex]

The operating leverage = [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{4017.6}{4017.6 - 57896.6}}[/tex]

The operating leverage = [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{4017.6}{-53879}}[/tex]

The operating leverage = - 0.0745

Calculate variable costs per unit, variable cost per unit for utilities and variable cost per unit for maintenance.

Answers

Answer:

variable costs per unit = $10.57

variable cost per unit for utilities = $0.85

variable cost per unit for maintenance = $0.25

Explanation:

I believe that the question is incomplete: the missing part is that both utilities and maintenance costs are mixed.

Production in units 3,900

Variable production cost s:

Direct materials $9,675  / 3,900 = $2.4808 per unit

Direct labor $27,420  / 3,900 = $6.9846 per unit

Utilities ($3,702 - $387) / 3,900 = $0.85 per unit

Maintenance ($1,233 - $258) / 3,900 = $0.25 per unit

total variable costs per unit = $10.5654 ≈ $10.57

Polly Khan is trying to calculate the current market rate given the following information: Investor’s have been requiring a 12% annual return on Builtrite’s stock which has a beta of 2.0 and the current risk-free rate is 4%. What is the current market rate?

Answers

Answer:

The current market rate is 8%

Explanation:

The market rate is the return on market or the market portfolio. To calculate the market rate (rM) we will use the CAPM equation which is used to calculate the required rate of return on a stock or portfolio. The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,

r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)

Where,

rRF is the risk free raterM is the market rate

We already know the value of r, rRF and Beta. We will input these values in the above equation to calculate the market rate.

0.12 = 0.04 + 2 * (rM - 0.04)

0.12 - 0.04 = 2 * rM - 0.08

0.08 + 0.08 = 2 * rM

0.16 / 2 = rM

rM = 0.08 or 8%

Jacob Corcoran bought 10,000 shares of Grebe Corporation stock two years ago for $24,000. Last year, Jacob received a nontaxable stock dividend of 2,000 shares in Grebe Corporation. In the current tax year, Jacob sold all of the stock received as a dividend for $18,000.


Required:

a. Complete the letter to Jacob describing the tax consequences of the stock sale.

b. Prepare a memo for the tax research file describing the tax consequences of the stock sale.

c.

Answers

Answer:

Jacob purchased 10000 shares form Grebe corporation two years ago for $24000

last year Jacob received a non taxable stock dividend of 2000 shares from Grebe corporation

In the current year tax year Jacob sold all stock received as dividend that's 2000 shares for $18000

The gain of the sale of 2000 shares can be calculated by subtracting the basis in the shares from the cost price. the cost of shares = ( $24000 / 12000 ) = $2 per share

profit made from the sales of 2000 shares is calculated as follows ; selling price ( $18000 ) - cost price of 2000 shares ( $2 * 2000) , the profit is $14000 and it is in the long term because the original shares bought has been held for at least 1 year

Firm A has set an MSRP of MXN 25 for its product, and the average discount to distributors is 30%. What is revenue on 40 million units

Answers

Answer: 700 million

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Firm A has set an MSRP of MXN 25 for its product, and the average discount to distributors is 30%.

The revenue on 40 million units will be calculated as:

= (40,000,000 × 25) × (100% - 30%)

= 1,000,000,000 × 70%

= 1,000,000,000 × 0.7

= 700,000,000

The answer is 700 million.

The revenue on 40 million units is 700,000,000.

The calculation is as follows:

= (40,000,000 × 25) × (100% - 30%)

= 1,000,000,000 × 70%

= 1,000,000,000 × 0.7

= 700,000,000

Therefore we can conclude that The revenue on 40 million units is 700,000,000.
