Amigo Software, Inc., has total assets of $800,000, current liabilities of $150,000, and long-term liabilities of $120,000. There is $65,000 in preferred stock outstanding. Thirty thousand shares of common stock have been issued.
Required:
a. Compute book value (net worth) per share.
b. If there is $48,000 in earnings available to common stockholders and the firm’s stock has a P/E of 20 times earnings per share, what is the current price of the stock?
c. What is the ratio of market value per share to book value per share? (Round to two places to the right of the decimal point.)
Answer and Explanation:
a. The book value per share is
But before that the net worth is
= Total assets - current liabilities - long term liabilities - preferred stock
= $800,000 - $150,000 - $120,000 - $65,000
= $465,000
Now the book value per share is
= $465,000 ÷ 30,000 shares
= $15.50
b. The current price of the stock is
= $48,000 ÷ 30,000
= $1.60
Now the market value is
= $1.60 × 20
= $32
c. The ratio of market value per share to book value per share is
= $32 ÷ $15.50
= 2.06

The market consensus is that Analog Electronic Corporation has an ROE of 9% and a beta of 1.70. It plans to maintain indefinitely its traditional plowback ratio of 2/3. This year's earnings were $3.6 per share. The annual dividend was just paid. The consensus estimate of the coming year's market return is 15%, and T-bills currently offer a 5% return.
Required:
a. Find the price at which Analog stock should sell.
b. Calculate the P/E ratio.
c. Calculate the present value of growth opportunities.
d. Suppose your research convinces you Analog will announce momentarily that it will immediately reduce its plowback ratio to 1/3. Find the intrinsic value of the stock.
Answer:
a $7.95
b. $2.21
c $16.36
d, $13.01
Explanation:
according to the constant dividend growth model
price = [d0 (1+g)] / (r - g)
d0 = recently paid dividend
Dividend = payout ratio x earnings
payout ratio = 1 - plowback rate
1 - 2/3 = 1/3
1/3 x 3.6 = $1.2
r = cost of equity
According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)
5% + 1.7(15 - 5) = 22%
g = growth rate
g = plowback rate x ROE
2/3 X 9 = 6%
1. [1.2 x 1.06] / (0.22 - 0.06) = 1.272/ 0.16 = $7.95
2.
The price to earning ratio is a financial metric used to value a company. it compares the price of a stock to the earnings of the stock. the lower the metric is, the higher the valuation of the firm
price to earning ratio = market value per share / earnings
$7.95 / $3.6 = $2.21
c. present value of growth opportunities = earnings / cost of equity
3.6 / 0.22 = $16.36
d.
price = [d0 (1+g)] / (r - g)
d0 = recently paid dividend
Dividend = payout ratio x earnings
payout ratio = 1 - plowback rate
1 - 1/3 = 2/3
2/3 x 3.6 = $2.40
r = cost of equity = 22%
g = plowback rate x ROE
1/3 X 9 = 3%
[2.4 x 1.03] / (0.22 - 0.03) = 2.472/ 0.19 = $13.01
Spartan Corporation, a U.S. corporation, reported $6.5 million of pretax income from its business operations in Spartania, which were conducted through a foreign branch. Spartania taxes branch income at 15 percent, and the United States taxes corporate income at 21 percent. Required: a. If the United States provided no mechanism for mitigating double taxation, what would be the total tax (U.S. and foreign) on the $6.5 million of branch profits
Answer: $2,340,000
Explanation:
Spartania Tax on branch income:
= 15% * 6,500,000
= $975,000
U.S. Corporate tax:
= 21% * 6,500,000
= $1,365,000
Total tax:
= 975,000 + 1,365,000
= $2,340,000
Rationale of the cost replacement approach is: an informed investor would not pay more for real estate than what it would cost to buy the land and build the structure an informed investor would pay for a property based on its ability to produce cash flow an informed buyer of real estate would not pay more for a property than what other investors have recently paid for comparable properties. None of the above
Answer:
an informed buyer of real estate would not pay more for a property than what other investors have recently paid for comparable properties
Explanation:
The replacement cost is the cost when the improvement represent the cost to replace one improvement with another containing the similar utility
So here the cost replacement approach would be informed buyer of the real estate that should not pay more as compared with the other investor who currently paid for the properties that are comparable with each other

A leader has a problem of low Product X sales. She meets individually (i.e., one at a time) with a number of her subordinates and shares the problem of low Product X sales. She asks for their ideas and suggestions about how to increase Product X sales and then makes the decision alone based on their input. According to Vroom and Yetton's normative theory of leadership, what decision-making style is the leader using in this situation
Answer: CI consultative.
Explanation:
According to Vroom and Yetton's normative theory of leadership, the decision-making style that the leader is using in this situation is the consultative leadership style.
This is a form of leadership style whereby the leader seeks the opinion of his team members and then uses the input gotten from them to make a final decision. Since the leader meets them individually and seeks their opinion, the leader is using a consultative leadership style.

Answer:
1. A project for a new holiday apparel company happen seasonality but are forecasted annually - TIMING OF CASH FLOWS.
This relates to the timing of cash flows chosen by the company for analysis. Even though the project is seasonal, the cashflows are considered annual.
2. Revenues or Costs that occur if and only if the project occurs - INCREMETAL REVENUE.
Incremental revenue refers to the revenue that will come to a company if they further pursue a project.
3. The Cardellas purchased tickets to Disneyland, but everyone woke up sick and no one wants to go. The tickets are said to be a... (I also hope this never happens). - SUNK COSTS
Sunk costs are costs that have already been incurred and cannot be changed so do not matter in further decision making.
4. A corporate jet was purchased 2 years ago. This could be utilized for a new project under consideration, but is considered a(n).... because it could be sold instead. - OPPORTUNITY COST.
Opportunity costs are the other options that can be chosen as an alternative to the current action. This plane could be sold or used so it the options presented make it an opportunity cost.
5. General Mills launched a new Pokemon Cereal so Andrew wanted to try it out instead of Lucky Charms. This is an example of a - NEGATIVE EXTERNALITY CALLED CANNIBALIZATION.
Cannibalization occurs when a company releases a new product and sales of this new product leads to a reduction in the sales of the company's older products.
6. Crayola launched a new color-stamping that only works on their ColorWonder paper. This new product is expected to also increase the sales of existing color-wonder paper. This is called a POSITIVE EXTERNALITY.
A positive externality occurs in sales when the new product increases the sale of the older products as is the case here.

The firm maintains a perpetual inventory system. Determine the cost of goods sold for each sale and the inventory balance after each sale, assuming the first-in, first-out method.
Answer:
Cost of goods sold $152,000
Closing inventory $97,000
Explanation:
Under the FIFO system , inventories are priced using the price of the oldest batch in the stock, after which the price of the next oldest batch and this is done in turn. It is based on the principle that the first batch that arrives the store should be issued first.
Total units sold = 2,500+4,500= 7,000
Using the FIFO method of the perpetual inventory, the 7,000 units sold by will be priced as follows:
2500 units at a price of $20 = $50,000
Next 1500units at a price of $20 = $30,000
Next 3,000 units at a price of $24= $72,000
Cost of goods sold 152,000
Closing inventory = Total cost of goods available for sale- cost of goods sold
Total cost of goods available for sale =
(4,000× 20) + (6,000× 24) + (1,000× $25) = 249,000
Closing inventory = 249,000 - 152,000=$97,000
Cost of goods sold $152,000
Closing inventory $97,000

Alpha Industries is considering a project with an initial cost of $9.7 million. The project will produce cash inflows of $1.67 million per year for 9 years. The project has the same risk as the firm. The firm has a pretax cost of debt of 6.12 percent and a cost of equity of 11.61 percent. The debt–equity ratio is .77 and the tax rate is 40 percent. What is the net present value of the project?
Answer:
$660,000
Explanation:
WACC = [wD * kD * (1 - t)] + [wE * kE]
WACC = [(0.77 / 1.77)*6.12%* (1 - 0.40)] + [(1 / 1.77)*11.61%]
WACC = 1.60% + 6.56%
WACC = 8.16%
Present value of annuity = Annuity*[1-(1+interest rate)^-time period]/rate

A public good is A. any good provided by government. B. a good that can be most cheaply provided by government, though it may in fact be provided by private enterprise. C. a good whose benefits cannot readily be restricted to a small group of people. D. a good whose benefits cannot be enjoyed by an individual alone.
Answer:
C. a good whose benefits cannot readily be restricted to a small group of people.
Explanation:
Factors of production can be defined as the fundamental building blocks used by individuals or business firms for the manufacturing of finished goods and services in order to meet the unending needs and requirements of their customers.
The four factors of production are;
I. Land: this refers to the natural resources and raw materials extracted from the ground or grown in the soil e.g oil, gold, rubber, cocoa, etc.
II. Labor (working): this is the human capital or workers who are saddled with the responsibility of overseeing and managing all the aspects of production.
III. Capital resources: it includes the physical assets used for production of goods and services such as equipment, money, plant, etc.
IV. Entrepreneurship: it is intellectual capacity required to drive a business and the skills to develop an idea into a money making venture (business).
These four (4) factors of production when combined effectively and efficiently are used for the manufacturing or production of goods and services that meets the unending requirements or needs of the consumers.
A public good is a good whose benefits cannot readily be restricted to a small group of people.
This ultimately implies that, a public good such as power utility (electricity) or water supply is capable of being provided simultaneously to the general public.
Furthermore, a public good is non-excludable and cannot be exhausted due to its use by the general public i.e it's never depleted.
Sheffield Corp. developed the following data for the current year: Beginning work in process inventory $ 216000 Direct materials used 208000 Actual overhead 176000 Overhead applied 184000 Cost of goods manufactured 990000 Total manufacturing costs 926000 How much is Sheffield Corp.'s direct labor cost for the year?
Answer:
$534,000
Explanation:
Given that;
Direct materials used = $208,000
Overhead applied = $184,000
Total manufacturing costs = $926,000
We know that the total manufacturing cost is calculated as seen below.
Total manufacturing cost
= Direct materials used + Direct labor + Allocated overhead
$926,000 = $208,000 + Direct labor + $184,000
Direct labor = $926,000 - $208,000 - $184,000
Direct labor = $534,000
Therefore, Sheffield Corp's direct labor cost for the year is $534,000
1. Assume that your company is considering the lease of one of these HP copiers, and you expect that the average price for a color copy for your company would be $0.110 because you would carefully prioritize color copy jobs and reduce the number of copies requiring a large amount of color. You expect that training your copy center staff to properly use the new copier would cost about $6,150 for materials and lost work time. What is the breakeven number of color copies per year that would make you indifferent between the new HP copier and your current copier
Answer: 246,000 color copies
Explanation:
Cost of printing color pages using the old machine is not included so we will infer that.
We shall assume the cost of that to be $0.135.
In using this new copier made by HP, the cost saved per copy is:
= 0.135 - 0.110

Increases natural rate of unemployment reducing workers' collective bargaining rights extra financial benefits for the unemployed a large number of young people entering the labor force an increase in union membership Decreases natural rate of unemployment
Answer:
increases natural rate of unemployment
extra financial benefits for the unemployed
a large number of young people entering the labor force
an increase in union membership
Decreases natural rate of unemployment
reducing workers' collective bargaining rights
Explanation:
natural rate of unemployment is unemployment that exists when there is only structural and frictional unemployment in an economy
structural unemployment is an unemployment that occurs as a result of changes in the economy. These changes can be as a result of changes in technology, polices or competition . Structural unemployment tends to be permanent.
Frictional unemployment . the period of time a person is unemployed from the period he leaves his current job and the time he gets another job. Eg. when a real estate agent who leaves a job in Texas and searches for a similar, higher-paying job in California.
If the unemployed are given extra benefits, there would be less incentive to find a job, thus unemployment would increase
An increase in union membership increases bargaining power of employees. this can lead to increase in wages. increase in wages reduces demand for labour and this increases unemployment. reducing collective bargaining right has the opposite effect on unemployment
a large number of people entering the labour force increases frictional unemployment
Simone is the only provider of pumpkins for three cities. Because she has her own large garden, the marginal cost to produce an additional pumpkin is $0. As she knows, firms discriminate to improve profits. How much would her she earn in additional profit if she practiced price discrimination across cities, charging a different price in each city versus charging everyone a single price
Answer: hi your question has some missing data attached below is the missing table
answer : $9
Explanation:
If Simone practices price discriminations across cities i.e. charging different prices across city instead of charging a single price
To determine the additional profit we will apply the formula below
Profit made from charging different prices - profit made from charging a single price
= ( ( $11 * 4) + ( $9 * 4 ) + ( $10 * 5) ) - ( $11 * 11 units )
= $130 - $121
= $9
Note : For a single pricing system Simone will sell only 11 units at a unit price of $11
while for different pricing system Simone will sell 4 units in city A at$11 , 4 units in City B at $9 , 5 units in city C at $10

If an announcement by a firm causes the price of that firm's stock to suddenly change, that price change will most likely be driven by:________.
a. the unexpected part of the announcement.
b. the expected part of the announcement
c. market inefficiency
d. systematic risk
Answer:
The correct answer is the option A: The unexpected part of the announcement.
Explanation:
To begin with, the stock market is characterized for being completely umpredictable due to the fact that the information available for the common people is not enough to predict the possible behaviors of the prices, so that means that when an unexpected announcement happens and nobody new about it then the market will react depending on how it takes the new so that explains that if something not good happens all the sudden the priece of the stocks of that company will probably go down due to the bad reception of the news.
Whitmer Inc. sells to customers all over the U.S., and all receipts come in to its headquarters in New York City. The firm's average accounts receivable balance is $2.5 million, and they are financed by a bank loan at an 11% annual interest rate. The firm is considering setting up a regional lockbox system to speed up collections, and it believes this would reduce receivables by 20%. If the annual cost of the system is $15,000, what pre-tax net annual savings would be realized
Answer:
$40,000
Explanation:
Average accounts receivables = $2,500,000. Loan amount is also $2,500,000.
Interest rate is 11%. So, interest paid = $2,500,000*0.11 = $275,000
If the system reduces receivables by 20%,then current receivables = $2,500,000*0.8 = $2,000,000. So, loan amount = $2,000,000
Interest payable = $2,000,000*0.11 = $220,000
Cost of system = $15,000
Net annual savings = Interest payable without system - Interest payable after system installed - Cost of system
Net annual savings = $275,000 - $220,000 - $15,000
Net annual savings = $40,000
