Your client in the 25% federal income tax bracket lives in a state where his earnings place him in the 6% bracket for state income tax purposes. If he were to purchase a 4% bond issued by a political subdivision of another state, his total tax-equivalent yield would be

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Slightly more than 5.33%.

Explanation:

In case when the municipal bond owned by an individual i.e. issued is not for interest free tax rate but also it is non tax on that particular state

So here the tax-equivalent yield is

= Purchase bond percentage ÷ (1 - tax rate)

= 0.04 ÷ (1 - 0.25)

= 5.33%

Hence, his total tax-equivalent yield is 5.33% i.e. calculated by applying the above formula

With regard to consideration in a sales contract, the UCC differs from the common law in that:_______
A) terms of a sales contract may be modified without additional consideration.
B) consideration is not required in sales contracts
C) terms in a sales contract may be modified as long as additional consideration is provided.
D) consideration exchanged must be equal or very closely equal in sales contracts.

Answers

Answer:

A) terms of a sales contract may be modified without additional consideration.

Explanation:

Generally speaking, common law applies to everybody in an equal manner, i.e. the law is the same for everyone. While UCC rules vary depending if the parties involved are merchants or not. UCC has two standards, one that applies to merchants and another one that applies to everyone else.

Common law applies to all contracts that are not covered by UCC rules. UCC rules only apply to the sale of goods and this doesn't include money or securities. Under UCC rules, new consideration is not a requirement to modify an existing contract. E.g. a buyer places an order for 3,000 units, but the seller only has 2,000 units available. The seller can send the 2,000 units and if the buyer accepts them, a new contract is formed.

Compute the payback period for this investment.

Answers

Answer:

Pay back period =3 years 4 months

Explanation:

The payback period is the estimated length of time it takes cash inflow from a project to recoup the cash outflow.  

The payback period uses cash flows and not profit.

The payback period can be determined by accumulation the cash inflow consecutively to ascertain the length of time it will take the sum to equate the initial cost.

This will be done as follows:

The sum of the cash in flows for the first three years would equal

50,000 + $31,000 + $60,000 = 141,000

The balance required to equate 190,000 would be

balance = 190,000 - 140,000 = 50,000

Pay back period = 3 years + (50,000/140,000)× 12 months

                            = 3 years 4 months

Pay back period =3 years 4 months

Suppose that Dunkin Donuts reduces the price of its regular coffee from $2 to $1 per cup, and as a result, the quantity sold per day increased from 10 to 40. Over this price range, the price elasticity of demand for Dunkin Donuts’ regular coffee is:

Answers

Answer:

PED = -6

Explanation:

The PED or price elasticity of demand for a product measures the responsiveness of a product's demand to the changes in the price of the product. The PED is calculated as follows,

PED = % change in Quantity demanded / % change in price

PED = [(40 - 10) / 10]  /  [(1 - 2) / 2]

PED = -6

A PED of -6 represents that quantity demanded is highly price elastic and a negative sign means that it is a normal good.

An aircraft company has an order to refurbish the interiors of 18 jet aircraft. The work has a learning curve percentage of 80. On the basis of experience with similar jobs, the industrial engineering department estimates that the first plane will require 300 hours to refurbish. Estimate the amount of time needed to complete:

a. The fifth plane
b. The first five planes
c. All 18 planes

Answers

Answer:

a. 125.43 hours

b. 767.92 hours

c. 2,129.04 hours

Explanation:

Using the mathematical approach, we have :

y = ax ^b

Where ,

y is the average time to manufacture x units

a is the time its takes to manufacture first plane

b is the log of 80% divided by log 2

Then,

Average time for 5 planes = 300 (5)^-0.322

                                            = 178.67 hours

Total time for 5 planes = 178.67 hours × 5

                                      = 893.35

Average time for 4 planes = 300 (4)^-0.322

                                            = 191.98 hours

Total time for 5 planes = 191.98 hours × 4

                                      = 767.92 hours

The fifth plane would take =  893.35 - 767.92

                                            =  125.43 hours

Average time for the 18 planes = 300(18)^-0.322

                                                    = 118,28 hours

Total time for 18 planes = 118,28 hours × 18

                                       = 2,129.04 hours

Answers

Answer:

Return on Investment

The statement that is true is:

b) If a company has $2,000,000 invested in buildings, equipment, and other assets and desires to earn a return on investment of 30%, the company will need to earn a net income of $600,000 (30% of $2,000,000).

Explanation:

The company's Return on Investment is a financial performance measure that calculates the efficiency of the use of investment resources by dividing the returns generated by an investment by the cost of the investment during a period of time.  It can be used to evaluate a divisional manager's performance based on the returns generated from the investments made in the division.

a. Days' sales uncollected
b. Days' sales in inventory
c. Accounts receivable turnover
d. Acid test rato

Answers

Answer:

 1.1 The ratio from the list below which measures the efficiency of the operations of a company is D - Total Asset Turnover Ratio.  

Explanation:

Total Asset Turn Over Ratio is calculated by dividing Net Sales by Average Total Assets.

For example, if company CDH is reporting a value of $499,650 as initial total assets and $387,656 as ending total assets. Within the same period, the company generated sales of $250,655, with sales returns of $17,000.

This means that, the asset turnover ratio for Company CDH is calculated as follows:

($250,655-$17,000)/(($387,656+$499,650)/2)

The answer is 0.52667

Thus, every dollar in total assets generates $0.52667 in sales.

Efficiency ratios are important for rating the operations of the business. They are also used by investors and lenders when conducting financial analysis of businesses to decide whether the companies are a good investment.

1.2 The component which summarises the components applicable in 1.1 is D Total Asset Turnover          

2. Working capital is the variance between current assets and current liabilities.

. This is simply the capital that an organisation uses in its day-to-day business operations.

3.   The short-term liquidity ratios which calculate how frequently a company collects its accounts are:

A) Days' sales Uncollected and

C) Accounts receivable turnover.

A) Days' sales Uncollected is calculated by

(Accounts receivable/Net annual credit sales) x 365

It is the number of days before receivables are collected.

The lower the ratio the more liquid the company is likely to be. High Days' Sales Uncollected Ratios are bad for business.

C) Accounts receivable turnover is the annual rate at which a business collects its average accounts receivable.

Duff Inc. paid a 2.34 dollar dividend today. If the dividend is expected to grow at a constant 1 percent rate and the required rate of return is 11 percent, what would you expect Duff's stock price to be 4 years from now?

Answers

Answer:

$24.60

Explanation:

The computation of the price for 4 years from now is shown below:

Price = Dividend ÷(Required rate of return - growth rate)

where,

Dividend is

= Dividend × (1 + growth rate)^number of years

= $2.34 × (1 + 0.01)^5

= $2.46

All the other items would remain the same

So, the price is

= $2.46 ÷ (11% - 1%)

= $24.60

You are planning to save for retirement over the next 25 years. To do this, you will invest $880 per month in a stock account and $480 per month in a bond account. The return of the stock account is expected to be an APR of 10.8 percent, and the bond account will earn an APR of 6.8 percent. When you retire, you will combine your money into an account with an APR of 7.8 percent. All interest rates are compounded monthly. How much can you withdraw each month from your account assuming a withdrawal period of 20 years

Answers

Answer:

$14,143.86 can be withdrawn each month from the account for 20 years.

Explanation:

To determine this, the first step is to use the formula for calculating the future value (FV) of ordinary annuity to calculate the FV of both stock and bond as follows:

Calculation of Future Value of Stock

FVs = M × {[(1 + r)^n - 1] ÷ r} ................................. (1)

Where,

FVs = Future value of the amount invested in stock after 25 years =?

M = Monthly investment = $880

r = Monthly interest rate = 10.8% ÷ 12 = 0.9%, or 0.009

n = number of months = 25 years × 12 months = 300

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

FVs = $880 × {[(1 + 0.009)^360 - 1] ÷ 0.009}

FVs = $880 × 1,522.3445923122

FVs = $1,339,663.24

Calculation of Future Value of Bond

FVd = M × {[(1 + r)^n - 1] ÷ r} ................................. (1)

Where,

FVd = Future value of the amount invested in bond after 25 years =?

M = Monthly investment = $480

r = Monthly interest rate = 6.8% ÷ 12 = 0.566666666666667%, or 0.00566666666666667

n = number of months = 25 years × 12 months = 300

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

FVd = $480 × {[(1 + 0.00566666666666667)^300 - 1] ÷ 0.00566666666666667}

FVd = $480 × 784.895879465925

FVd = $376,750.02

Calculation of the amount that can be withdrawn monthly for 20 years

To calculate this, the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity is used as follows:

PV = P × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1+r)]^n} ÷ r] …………………………………. (3)

Where;

PV = Combined present values of stock and bond investments after retirement = FVs + FVb = $1,339,663.24 + $376,750.02 = $1,716,413.26

P = Monthly withdrawal = ?

r = Monthly interest rate = 7.8% ÷ 12 = 0.65%, or 0.0065

n = number of months = 20 years * 12 months = 240

Substitute the values into equation (3) and solve for P to have:

PV = P × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1+r)]^n} ÷ r]

$1,716,413.26 = P × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + 0.0065)]^240} ÷ 0.0065]

$1,716,413.26 = P × 121.353915567094

P = $1,716,413.26 / 121.353915567094

P = $14,143.86

Therefore, $14,143.86 can be withdrawn each month from the account for 20 years.

Answers

Answer:

c.$27,284.90 unfavorable

Explanation:

Standard variable overhead rate                     =$27.00

Standard hours allowed per completed unit  =4.3

Actual production unit                                      =971

Actual variable overhead costs                       =$140,018

Variable factory overhead controllable variance = (Standard variable overhead rate * Standard hours allowed per completed unit * Actual production unit) - Actual variable overhead costs

Variable factory overhead controllable variance = ($27 * 4.3 * 971) - $140,018

Variable factory overhead controllable variance = $112,733.1 - $140,018

Variable factory overhead controllable variance = $27,284.9 (Unfavorable)

Answers

Answer:

$39,720

Explanation:

Total fixed costs that represent current cash flows = $35,760 - $4,100

Total fixed costs that represent current cash flows = $31,660

Variable costs = 2,600 units * $3.10

Variable costs = $8,060

The cash disbursements for selling and administrative expenses on the March selling and administrative expense budget will be

= $31,660 + $8,060

Burpee Company sells seeds to garden stores. Sales are expected to be $2,038,635 in January, $2,581,891 in February and $2,913,307 in March. Burpee sets their prices so that they earn an average 32% gross profit on sales revenue. What is budgeted cost of goods sold for the first quarter (January, February and March)?

Answers

Answer:

Total COGS= $5,123,006.44

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales:

January= $2,038,635

February= $2,581,891

March= $2,913,307

Burpee sets their prices so that they earn an average 32% gross profit on sales revenue.

We need to calculate the cost of goods sold:

January= 2,038,635*0.68= 1,386,271.8

February= 2,581,891*0.68= 1,755,685.88

March= 2,913,307*0.68= 1,981,048.76

Total COGS= $5,123,006.44

Suppose you observe the following situation: Security Beta Expected Return Pete Corp. 1.80 .190 Repete Co. 1.49 .163 a. Assume these securities are correctly priced. Based on the CAPM, what is the expected return on the market? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) b. What is the risk-free rate? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

a. 12.03%

b. 3.32%

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

Expected rate of return = Risk free rate of return + [Beta × Risk premium]

Let us assume Risk free rate of return be x and Risk premium be y

Now the equations are as follows

For Pete Corp

19 = x + 1.80y ...................... (1)

For Repete Corp

16.3 = x + 1.49y .....................(2)

Now Solving (1) and (2)

After solving we get

y = 8.70967741935

x = 3.3225806452

i.e Risk free rate = x = 3.32%

And, the Risk premium = 8.70967741935%

So,

Expected return on market = Risk free rate + Risk premium

= 3.3225806452 + 8.70967741935

= 12.03%

Explanation:

the market price of the bonds:

$800,000 / 1.05¹⁰ = $491,130.60

$32,000 x 8.1109 (PV annuity factor, 4%, 10 periods) = $259,548.80

market price = $750,679.40

discount on bonds payable $49,320.60

discount amortization first payment = (750,679.40 x 0.05) - 32,000 = 5,533.97

discount amortization second payment = (756,213.37 x 0.05) - 32,000 = 5,810.67

discount amortization third payment = (762,024.04 x 0.05) - 32,000 = 6,101.20

Knowing she has sold 5,000 pairs, assume the company wants to launch a Black Friday promotion, where she would discount her shoes by 10%. How many more shoes would she have to sell to justify this promotion?

A. 25.13% more shoes

B. 20.08% more shoes

C. None of the above, but I could calculate this with the information I am given.

D. None of the above, I cannot calculate this with the information I am given.

Answer:

Option A. 25.13% more shoes

Explanation:

Cost Benefit analysis would be useful here to acknowledge what percentage of shoe sales is required to justify the promotion.

The Benefit drawn before 10% promotion proposal:

Revenue:                           $500,000

Shoes:                               ($250,000)

Shoe boxes:                         ($1,000)

Advertising:                           ($500)

Rent:                                     ($1,000)

Depreciation:                          ($25)

Profit                                    $247,475

The Benefit drawn before 10% promotion proposal:

Revenue:                           $450,000

Shoes:                               ($250,000)

Shoe boxes:                        ($1,000)

Advertising:                          ($500)

Rent:                                    ($1,000)

Depreciation:                         ($25)

Profit                                   $197,475

Now we can calculate how much additional sales must be required to justify the promotion.

Sales Increase Required = (Initial Profit - Before Promotion) / Profit After Promotion

Sales Increase Required = ($247,475  - $197,475) / $197,475

Sales Increase Required = 25.31% which is close to option 1, hence Option 1 is correct here.

Promotion is termed as the activity that involves the spreading or publicizing of information regarding the products and services. It is a part of marketing that involves publicity and public relations between the customers.  

The correct option is A. 25.13% more shoes

Cost Benefit analysis would be useful here to acknowledge what percentage of shoe sales is required to justify the promotion.

The Benefit drew before 10% promotion proposal:

Revenue:                           $500,000

Shoes:                               ($250,000)

Shoe boxes:                         ($1,000)

Advertising:                           ($500)

Rent:                                     ($1,000)

Depreciation:                          ($25)

Profit                                    $247,475

The Benefit drew before 10% promotion proposal:

Revenue:                           $450,000

Shoes:                               ($250,000)

Shoe boxes:                        ($1,000)

Rent:                                    ($1,000)

Depreciation:                         ($25)

Profit                                   $197,475

Now we can calculate how much additional sales must be required to justify the promotion.

Sales Increase Required = [tex]\frac{\text{Initial Profit - Before Promotion}}{\text{Profit After Promotion}}[/tex]

Sales Increase Required = [tex]\frac{\$247,475-\$197,475}{\$197,475}[/tex]

Sales Increase Required = 25.31% which is close to option 1, hence Option 1 is correct here.

In an Oligopoly industry a change in price by one firm will _____ impact the other firms in the industry.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is significantly.

Explanation:

Oligopoly is a market situation in which there are few sellers, selling similar goods and services and many buyers. The barriers to entry in this market in high. Example of a oligopoly market is OPEC.

The competition amongst the few sellers is high because they are selling the same thing and a change in price by one firm will significantly affect other firms in the industry. For example, if a firm reduces the price of its goods, this creates a price war and other firms to start reducing their price to match the lower price. And if another firm increases its price, consumers will switch to competitors

Pear Corporation is considering Alternative A and Alternative B. Costs associated with the alternatives are listed below:
Alternative A Alternative B
Materials costs $ 40,000 $ 56,000
Processing costs $ 37,000 $ 37,000
Equipment rental $ 13,000 $ 13,000
Occupancy costs $ 15,000 $ 22,000
Are the materials costs and processing costs relevant in the choice between alternatives A and B?
Multiple Choice
A) Only processing costs are relevant
B) Only materials costs are relevant
C) Both materials costs and processing costs are relevant
D) Neither materials costs nor processing costs are relevant

Answers

Answer: B) Only materials costs are relevant

Explanation:

When choosing between alternatives, the main decider is the difference in costs. The costs that are different are the ones to decide whether a company takes on a project as it will signal the financial viability of a project.

In both alternatives, the Processing costs remain at $37,000 therefore the alternative chosen is irrelevant to these costs as they will be incurred regardless of the company's choice. They are therefore not to be considered.

Material costs on the other hand vary by the alternatives and so should be considered.

Many managers describe performance appraisal as the responsibility that they like least. Why is this so? What could be done to improve the situation?

Answers

Answer:

Many managers describe performance appraisal as the responsibility that they like least. Why is this so?

it might be so because managers may feel that performance appraisal is not as productive as other activities, or because they lack the personal skills, or the motivation, to engage in that activity.

What could be done to improve the situation?

Managers should be taught that performance appraisal can be a very effective and productive method for the firm. When workers are praised for their work (when they deserve it), they are likely to be happier in the workplace, and it has been shown by countless studies that happier workers are also more productive.

Your supervisor instructs you to purchase 480 pens and 6 staplers for the workplace. Pens are purchased in sets of 6 for $2.45. Staplers are sold in sets of 2 for $14.95. How much will the purchase of these products cost?

Answers

Answer:

Total cost= $225.9

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Your supervisor instructs you to purchase 480 pens and 6 staplers for the workplace.

Pens are purchased in sets of 6 for $2.45.

Staplers are sold in sets of 2 for $14.95.

First, we need to calculate the number of "packs" to buy:

Pens= 480/6= 80

Staplers= 6/2= 3

Total cost= 80*2.45 + 2*14.95= $225.9
