2. (20 points) A couple plans to purchase a home for $320,000. Property taxes are expected to be $1,200 per year while insurance premiums are estimated to be $1400 per year. Annual repair and maintenance are estimated at $1,950. An alternative is to rent a house of about the same size for $2,150 per month [approximate using $25,800 per year]. If an 8.0% return before-taxes is the couple's minimum rate of return, what must the resale value be 10 years from today for the cost of ownership to equal the cost of renting

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$371,200

Explanation:

For the computation of annual price escalation first we need to follow some steps which are shown below:-

Future value of payment if the property purchased is

= Property taxes + Insurance premium + Annual repair and maintenance

= $1,200 + $1,400 + $1,950

= $4,550

Future value = (1 + K)^n

= (1 + 0.08)^10

= 2.158924997

or

= 2.16

Future value of annuity factor = (1 + K)^n -1 ÷ K

= ((1 + 0.08)^10 - 1) ÷ 0.08

= 1.158924997

÷ 0.08

= 14.487

Future value of the cost of property = Purchase amount of a home × Future value

= $320,000 × 2.16

= $691,200

Future value of recurring cost = Future value of payment if property purchased × Future value of annuity factor

= $4,550 × 14.487

= $65,915.85

Total value of payment = Future value of the cost of property + Future value of recurring cost

= $691,200

+ $65,915.85

= $75,7115.85

Future value of the payment in property taken on rent

The Total value of the payment in 10 year when the property taken on rent = Amount using per year × Future value of annuity factor

= $25,800 × 14.487

= $373,764.6

The amount incurred in both the methods will be the same if the property can be sold = Total value of payment - Total value of the payment in 10 year when the property was taken on rent

= $75,7115.85  - $373,764.6 0

= 383351.25

finally,

The annual price escalation = Future value of the cost of the property - Purchase amount of home

= $691,200  - $320,000

= $371,200

T. Boone Pickens football stadium at Oklahoma State University has a seating capacity of about 40,000. Assume the stadium sells out all six home games before the season begins and the athletic department collects $31 million in ticket sales.

Required:
a. What was the average price per season ticket and average price per individual game ticket sold?
b. Record the advance collection of $29 million in ticket sales.
c. Record the revenue earned after the first home game was completed.

Answers

Answer:

Total collection of ticket sales is $31 million

Seating capacity is 40,000 tickets

Average price per season ticket = Total collection / Seating capacity

=$31,000,000 / 40,000

=$775

Therefore, the average price per season ticket is $775

Average price per individual game ticket sold = Average price per ticket / Number of games

= 775 / 6

= $129

Therefore, the average price per individual game sold is $129 and the number of games is 6

What is the company's net working capital

Answers

Answer:

$6,718,553

Explanation:

Working capital is the net of current assets (Inventory, account receivables, Cash etc) and current liabilities (Accounts payable, short term notes payable etc).

It is a financial measure that gives insight into how liquid a company is. .

As such, the company's working capital

= $1,235,455 - $4,159,357 + $7,184,800 + $3,472,300 - $1,136,100 + $121,455

( the signs are positive for assets and negative for liabilities)

= $6,718,553

CMS Corporation's balance sheet as of today is as follows: Long-term debt (bonds, at par) $10,000,000 Preferred stock 2,000,000 Common stock ($10 par) 10,000,000 Retained earnings 4,000,000 Total debt and equity $26,000,000 The bonds have a 4.0% coupon rate, payable semiannually, and a par value of $1,000. They mature exactly 10 years from today. The yield to maturity is 12%, so the bonds now sell below par. What is the current market value of the firm's debt

Answers

Answer:

$5,412,000

Explanation:

Given:

Long-term debt (bonds, at par):$10,000,000

Preferred stock :2,000,000

Common stock ($10 par): 10,000,000

Retained earnings: 4,000,000

Total debt and equity :$26,000,000

Coupon rate = 4%(semi annually)

Par value = $1000

YTM = 12%

Required:

Find the current market value of the firm's debt.

Find the bond price:

Bond price [tex] = (C * (\frac{1 - (\frac{1}{(1+i)^n})}{i}) + (\frac{m}{(1+i)^n}) [/tex]

[tex] = (C * (\frac{1 - (\frac{1}{(1+0.06)^2^0})}{0.06}) + (\frac{1000}{(1+0.06)^2^0}) [/tex]

[tex] = 541.20 [/tex]

Bond price = $541.20

Find number of bonds:

Number of bonds [tex] = \frac{10,000,000}{1,000} = 10,000[/tex]

Now, to find the current market value of the firm's debt, use:

Current market value of debt = number of bonds × bond price

= 10,000 × 541.20

= $5,412,000

Current market value of the firm's debt = $5,412,000

Answers

Answer: C $9,400,000 E $600,000; B $10,000,000

Explanation:

The Company Issued bonds worth $10,000,000 but only received $9,400,000 in cash.

This means that they issued the Bonds at a discount. With the discount being the difference between how much was issued and how much was received.

This discount will be sent to the Discount on Bonds Payable account.

The Cash received of $9,400,000 will be sent to the cash account.

The company will still have to pay the entire figure of $10,000,000 in bonds so the full amount will go to the Bonds Payable account.

The Journal Entry is thus,

DR Cash $9,400,000

DR Discount on Bonds Payable $600,000

CR Bonds Payable $10,000,000

Deborah Lewis, general manager of the Northwest Division of Berkshire Co., has significant authority over pricing decisions as well as programs that involve cost reduction/control. The data that follow relate to upcoming divisional operations:



Average invested capital: $15,000,000

Annual total fixed costs: $3,900,000

Variable cost per unit: $80

Number of units expected to be sold: 120,000

Assume the unit selling price is $132 and that Berkshire has a 16% imputed interest charge.

Top management will promote Deborah to corporate headquarters if her division can generate $200,000 of residual income (RI). If Deborah desires to move to corporate, what adjustment must the division do to the amount of annual total fixed costs?

Answers

Answer:

The revised fixed costs = $3,640,000

Explanation:

Calculation of Residual Income:

Residual Income = Net income - (Invested capital * Minimum required rate of return)

Net Income = Sales - Variable costs - Fixed costs

Net Income = (120,000*132) - (120,000*80) - 3,900,000

Net Income = $2,340,000

Invested capital = $15,000,000

Minimum required rate of return = 16%

Therefore, residual income = $2,340,000 - ($15,000,000 * 16%)

= -$60,000

Hence, adjustment to be made to the amount of fixed costs so that residual income becomes $200,000 = $200,000+$60,000 = $260,000

Therefore, revised fixed costs = $3,900,000 - $260,000 = $3,640,000

Which of the following statements is most correct? a. All else equal, if a bond’s yield to maturity increases, its price will fall. b. All else equal, if a bond is down graded by the rating agencies its yield to maturity will increase. c. If a firm has two bond issues that are identical except one is subordinate to the other, the subordinate issue will have a higher yield to maturity than the other issue. d. A B and C are correct. e. None of the above are correct

Answers

Answer: d. A B and C are correct.

Explanation:

A bond's price and it's Yield to Maturity (YTM) are inversely related such that when Yield to Maturity rises, the price of the bond falls. This is a because a higher YTM signifies that the bond is riskier so it will compensate by being cheaper.

If a bond is downgraded by Ratings agencies then it means that the bond is now riskier. As it is riskier investors will charge more interest for taking on the risk. The interest is the YTM and so it rises.

A Subordinate bond means that if the company were to go into bankruptcy for instance, the Subordinate bond would only be paid for after the bond that is not Subordinated. This means that there is a chance that Subordinate bond holders will not get anything from the liquidation of the company. Investors will therefore charge a higher YTM to cater for the risk that this happens.

When a monopolistically competitive market opens up to international trade, each firm produces a greater quantity of output than it did before. Explain why this is

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the increase in the amount of buyers.

Explanation:

To begin with, due to the fact that the company is now selling internationally then the market is wide more open for them to increase the portfolio of clients and moreover to increase the amount of sales that the company is having. Therefore that when the company starts to trade internationally it will increase its amount of consumers that will be able to buy from them and also the amount of resellers that can buy from them to buy to final consumers. Primarily, the improvement in the increase of buyers will tend to increase the amount of production that the company is producing and so also the amount of sales so therefore that the company will produce a greater quantity of output than it did before.

Since Internet Banks do not need many physical locations they save on many of these overhead fees.

Zoe, who is risk averse, purchased flight cancellation insurance which will cover the cost of her non-refundable $500 airline ticket if she is unable to travel due to illness. Zoe faces a 10 percent probability of becoming ill and then using the insurance.a) The fair insurance premium (i.e., selling price) for this insurance is $450.b) Zoe’s maximum willingness to pay for the insurance is $50.c) Zoe’s personal risk premium must exceed the actuarially fair price.d) None of the above.

Answers

Answer: Zoe’s maximum willingness to pay for the insurance is $50

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Zoe, who is risk averse, bought flight cancellation insurance which will cover the cost of her non-refundable $500 airline ticket if she is unable to travel due to illness wnd also that Zoe faces a 10 percent probability of becoming ill and then using the insurance.

The expected value of the insurance will be the cost of the airline ticket multiplied by the probability of her becoming ill. This will be:

= $500 × 10%

= $500 × 0.1

= $50

Based on the calculation, it can be concluded that Zoe’s maximum willingness to pay for the insurance is $50.

A company applies overhead at a rate of 150% of direct labor cost. Actual overhead cost for the current period is $1,150,000, and direct labor cost is $565,000. Determine whether there is over- or underapplied overhead using the T-account below. Factory OverheadActual Overhead 950,000 Overapplied overhead 950,000

Answers

Answer:

Under applied overheads= $302,500

Explanation:

Overheads are charged to units produced by the means of an estimated overhead absorption rate. This rate is computed using budgeted overhead and budgeted activity level.

As a result of this, overhead charged to total units product might be over or under absorbed compared to the actual amount incurred.

Overhead absorption rate

=budgeted Overhead/Budgeted labour cost × 100

This already given in the question as  150% of the direct labour rate

= 150% of direct labour cost

Applied overhead= OAR× actual labour cost

= 150% × $565,000=$847,500

Under applied overhead = is the difference between actual overhead and applied overhead

$1,150,000 - $847,500 = $302,500

Under applied overheads= $302,500

Here it is under applied because the applied is less than the actual overhead cost

Cotton On Ltd. currently has the following capital structure: Debt: $3,500,000 par value of outstanding bond that pays annually 10% coupon rate with an annual before-tax yield to maturity of 12%. The bond issue has face value of $1,000 and will mature in 20 years.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

This question is incomplete. Kindly find the incomplete question here

Ordinary shares: $5,500,000 book value of outstanding ordinary shares. Nominal value of each share is $100. The firm plan just paid a $8.50 dividend per share. The firm is maintaining 4% annual growth rate in dividends, which is expected to continue indefinitely.

Preferred shares: 45,000 outstanding preferred shares with face value of $100, paying fixed dividend rate of 12%

The firm's marginal tax rate is 30%.

Required:

a) Calculate the current price of the corporate bond?

b)Calculate the current price of the ordinary share if the average return of the shares in the same industry is 9%?

c) Calculate the current price of the preferred share if the average return of the shares in the same industry is 10%

The computation is shown below:

a. For the current price of the corporate bond

Before that first we have to determine the after tax yield to maturity i.e

After tax YTM = Before tax YTM × (1 - tax rate)

= 12% × ( 1 - 30%)

= 12% × (1 - 0.3)

= 12% × (0.7)

= 8.4%

Now

Price of bond = Interest × PVIFA(YTM%,n) + Redemption value × PVIF(YTM%,n)

Interest = 1000 × 10% = $100

YTM% = 8.4%

n = 20

PVIFA(YTM%,n) = [1 - (1 ÷ (1 + r)^n ÷ r ]

PVIFA(8.4%,20) = [1 - (1 ÷ (1 + 8.4%)^20 ÷ 8.4%]

= [1 - (1 ÷ (1 + 0.084)^20 ÷ 0.084]

= [1-(1 ÷ (1.084)^20 ÷ 0.084]

= [1 - 0.1993 ÷  0.084]

= 0.8007 ÷ 0.084

= 9.5327

PVIF(8.4%,20) = 1 ÷ (1 + 8.4%)^20

= 1 ÷ (1.084)^20

= 0.19926

So, the price of bond is

= $100 × 9.5327 + $1000 × 0.19926

= $953.27 + $199.26

= $1,152.52  

b)Price of stock = Dividend of next year ÷ (Required rate of return - growth rate )

where,

Growth rate = 4%

Required rate of return = 9%

The Dividend of next year = Dividend paid  × (1 +  growth rate)

= 8.50 × (1 + 4%)

= 8.50 × (1 + 0.04)

= 8.50 × (1.04)

= $8.84

Thus the price of the stock is

= $8.84 ÷ (9% - 4%)

= $8.84 ÷ 5%

= $176.80  

c) Price of preference shares is

= Dividend ÷ Required rate of return

where,

Dividend = 100 × 12% = $12

And, the Required rate of return = 10%

So, the price of preference shares is

= 12 ÷ 10%

= $120

If the government began providing free textbooks to college students who would otherwise have bought their books from the private sector, the government's action would result in:_______
A) a Ricardian dilemma.
B) a direct expenditure offset.
C) an increase in real Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
D) a reduction of the government deficit.

Answers

Answer:

Option (B) is the correct answer to this question.

Explanation:

As the government spends more money, businesses within the private sector typically spend less.

Specific budget offsets refer to the private-sector expenditures through which compensation was generated as a result of expansionary budgetary policy decisions becoming implemented. The private sector activities in investment profits that counter government spending behavior by the state. Some income from federal spending in an environment competing with corporate companies must be offset by any government expenditure.

Other options are incorrect because they are not related to the given scenario.

The fair values of all of Sirius's assets and liabilities were equal to their book values except for inventory that had a fair value of $85,000, land that had a fair value of $60,000, and buildings and equipment that had a fair value of $250,000. Buildings and equipment have a remaining useful life of 10 years with zero salvage value. Paradox Company decided to employ push-down accounting for the acquisition. Subsequent to the combination, Sirius continued to operate as a separate company. Based on the preceding information, what amount will be present in the revaluation capital account, when consolidating entries are prepared?

Answers

Answer:

$0

Explanation:

The fair value is the value above the book value. The financial statements are prepared at historic cost and when the value of assets rises a revaluation account is created to present financial statements accurate. The fair values of Sirius's assets are equal to book value and all assets are presented at cost or book value. There will be no revaluation charged to the consolidated statement.

Hall Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. Data concerning the first processing department for the most recent month are listed below:

Beginning work in process inventory:

Units in beginning work in process inventory 1,000
Materials costs $7,100
Conversion costs $6,400
Percent complete with respect to materials 65%
Percent complete with respect to conversion 30%
Units started into production during the month 13,600
Units transferred to the next department during the month 12,300
Materials costs added during the month $137,224
Conversion costs added during the month $215,050

Ending work in process inventory:
Units in ending work in process inventory 2,300
Percent complete with respect to materials 60%
Percent complete with respect to conversion 25%


The total cost transferred from the first processing department to the next processing department during the month is closest to:______

a. $356,256
b. $380,435
c. $341,325
d. $349,856

Answers

Answer:

c. $341,325

Explanation:

First determine the Equivalent Units of Production

Materials

Units completed and transferred (12,300 × 100%)              = 12,300

Units in Ending Work In Process Inventory ( 2,300 ×60%) =   1,380

Equivalent Units of Production                                             = 13,680

Conversion

Units completed and transferred (12,300 × 100%)              = 12,300

Units in Ending Work In Process Inventory ( 2,300 ×25%) =      575

Equivalent Units of Production                                             = 12,875

Next Determine the Total Cost Incurred during the period

Materials

Cost in Units of Opening Work In Process     =      $7,100

Incurred during the period                               = $137,224

Total Cost                                                          = $144,324

Conversion

Cost in Units of Opening Work In Process     =     $6,400

Incurred during the period                               = $215,050

Total Cost                                                          = $221,450

Then Determine the Total Cost per Equivalent unit of Production

Cost per Equivalent unit = Total Cost / Total Equivalent Units

Materials = $144,324 / 13,680

               = $10.54

Conversion = $221,450 / 12,875

                   = $17.20

Total = $10.54 + $17.20 = $27.74

Finally calculate total cost transferred from the first processing department to the next processing department

total cost transferred  = Units transferred × Total cost per equivalent unit of production.

                                     = 12,300 × $27.74

                                     = $341,202

Conclusion :

The total cost transferred from the first processing department to the next processing department during the month is closest to $341,325

sadik inch's bonds currently sell for $1,300 and have a par value of $1,000. They pay a $105 annual coupon and have a 15-year maturity, but they can be called in 5 years at $1,100. What is their yield to call

Answers

Answer:

5.31%

Explanation:

For computing the yield to call we need to use the RATE formula i.e shown in the attachment below:

Given that,  

Present value = $1,300

Future value or Face value = $1,100

PMT = 105

NPER = 5 years

The formula is shown below:  

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after applying the above formula, the yield to call is 5.31%

Conroy Copper Mines has $940 million in total liabilities and $620 million in shareholder's equity. It discloses operating lease commitments over the next five years with a present value of $120 million. If the lease commitments are treated as debt, the debt-to-total-capital ratio is closest to:

Answers

Answer:

0.63

Explanation:

Total debt =  940 + 120 =1060

Total sharesholder's equity = $620  million

We can find the debt to total capital ratio by dividing debt by total capital

Debt-to-total-capital ratio = Debt / Total capital = 1060 / (1060+620)

Debt-to-total-capital ratio = 0.63

Bolton Tire Manufacturing and the union came to an impasse during negotiation of the collective bargaining agreement. Specifically, they could not agree on the wage increase for the employees. The union representative reported this information to the employees, and they staged a strike without the union's authorization.
A. The employees have engaged in an unfair labor practice strike.
B. The employees have engaged in an economic strike.
C. The employees have engaged in a sitdown strike.
D. None of the choices are correct.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the option A: the employees have engaged in an unfair labor practice strike.

Explanation:

To begin with, due to the fact that the union was already establishing the area for the negotiation and they might have planeed obviously to keep trying to increase the situation in their favour then the action taken by the employees was a bit hurry and was obvious that was not thought very well with calm minds and therefore that they engaged in an unfair labor practice strike because they had to be patience and wait for the union to improve the situation for them, because their are the representatives and if the company sees that the workers do not obey to the representatives then the union will lose negotiation power and the situation will get worse for them.

Duff Inc. paid a 2.69 dollar dividend today. If the dividend is expected to grow at a constant 3 percent rate and the required rate of return is 5 percent, what would you expect Duff's stock price to be 4 years from now?

Answers

Answer:

$155.92

Explanation:

Div₀ = $2.69

Div₁ = $2.7707

Div₂ = $2.8538

Div₃ = $2.9394

Div₄ = $3.0276

Div₅ = $3.1184

we need to calculate the stocks terminal value in year 4, and to do that we will use Div₅ and the growing perpetuity formula:

stock price = $3.1184 / (5% - 3%) = $155.92

if we wanted to calculate the current stock price we would use Div₁ in the same formula.

Kansas Company acquired a building valued at $151,000 for property tax purposes in exchange for 12,000 shares of its $3 par common stock. The stock is widely traded and selling for $18 per share. At what amount should the building be recorded by Kansas Company

Answers

Answer:

The building would be recorded by Kansas Company for an amount of $216,000

Explanation:

In order to calculate the amount should the building be recorded by Kansas Company we would have to calculate the value of the building with the following formula:

value of the building= shares exchanged*Market value per share

shares exchanged=12,000 shares

Market value per share=$18

Therefore, value of the building=12,000*$18

value of the building=$216,000

The building would be recorded by Kansas Company for an amount of $216,000

Star Corp. has a rate of return on assets of 10% and a debt/equity ratio of 2 to 1 before entering into an operating lease. Not including any indirect effects on earnings, when Star Corp. records the operating lease, the immediate impact on these ratios is a(an):

Answers

Answer:

The return on assets and debt/equity ratio does not change

Explanation:

An operating lease does not affect assets and liabilities. From the formula:

Equity = Assets - Liabilities, since both assets and liabilities are not affected (they remain unchanged) therefore the equity is also the same.

The debt/ equity ratio = total liabilities/total equity. Since liabilities and equity remain unchanged, therefore The debt/ equity ratio is the same.

Also the return of assets (earnings/assets) remain the same
