A company with a decreasing interest expense would see what change to its times interest earned?
a) An increase
b) A decrease
c) No change
d) Cannot be determined

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) An increase

Explanation:

The times interest earned ratio is a ratio that measures the portion of the income or earning that can be used to pay for future interest expenses. Times interest earned ratio is also known as the coverage ratio and it can be computed using the following formula:

Times interest earned ratio = EBIT / Interest expense .............. (1)

Where EBIT denotes earning before interest and tax.

From equation, it can be seen that there is a negative relationship between times interest earned and interest expense. That is, as interest expense increases, times interest earned falls. On the other hand, as interest expense falls, times interest earned increases.

Therefore, the correct option is a) An increase, that is a company with a decreasing interest expense would see an increase to its times interest earned.

Answers

Answer:

a. Prepare the journal entry to record the issuance of the bonds on January 1, 2018

we must first determine the market price of the bonds:

PV of face value = $2,000,000 / (1 + 5%)²⁰ = $753,778.97 ≈ $753,779

PV of coupon payments = $110,000 x 12.462 (PV annuity factor, 5%, 20 periods) = $1,370,820

market value of the bonds = $753,779 + $1,370,820 = $2,124,599

E-Eyes just issued some new preferred stock. The issue will pay an annual dividend of $13 in perpetuity, beginning 11 years from now. If the market requires a 6 percent return on this investment, how much does a share of preferred stock cost today

Answers

Answer:

The cost of preferred stock today is $114.14

Explanation:

To calculate the cost of preferred stock today, we first need to determine the cost of each share of preferred stock 11 years from now when it starts paying dividends and then discount it back to today's value.

The preferred stock pays a constant dividend and after equal interval of time for an indefinite period. Thus, it is like a perpetuity. The present value of perpetuity is,

Present value = Dividend / r

Where,

r is the required rate of return

Value Year 11 = 13 / 0.06

Value Year 11 = 216.6666667

The present value is,

Present value = 216.6666667 / (1+0.06)^11

Present value = $114.137 rounded off to $114.14

The next dividend payment by Savitz, Inc., will be $2.12 per share. The dividends are anticipated to maintain a growth rate of 8 percent forever. If the stock currently sells for $43 per share, what is the required return?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 12.9%

Explanation:

This question will be solved using the Dividend Discount Model(DDM).

Po = D1/r - g

Po is the current worth of stocks

D1 is the next dividend paid

r is the rate of return

g is the growth rate

$43 = $2.12/ r - 0.08

43r - 3.44 = 2.12

43r = 5.56

r = 5.56/43

=0.129

Expressed as a percentage:

The required return for Savitz, Inc., is therefore 12.9%

Aspin Corporation’s charter authorizes issuance of

2,000,000 shares of common stock. Currently, 1,400,000 shares are outstand-
ing, and 100,000 shares are being held as treasury stock. The firm wishes to

raise $48,000,000 for a plant expansion. Discussions with its investment bankers
indicate that the sale of new common stock will net the firm $60 per share.​

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The calculation of the sale of new common stock is shown below:-

a. Not issued = Authorized shares - Outstanding shares - Treasury stock

= 2,000,000 - 1,400,000 + 100,000

= 500,000

Now

Maximum shares = Not issued + Treasury stock

= 500,000 + 100,000

= 600,000

b. Since if we find out the number of shares that should be issued is

= $48,000,000 ÷ $60 per share

= 800,000

But the maximum shares is 600,000 so this shares would only be issued upto this limit only

Therefore the funds should not be raised

c.  Now The firm could also develop extra 200,000 shares together it get amortized also.

Hence, it can sell 800,000 shares and the amount could rise to $48,000,000

B. It potentially results in better products for the customer.
C. It always increases the cost of the final product.
D. It always lowers the quality of the final product.
E. It has no impact on the production lines in the home country.

Answers

Answer: B. It potentially results in better products for the customer.

Explanation:

Importation of components for the production of a good might lead to a potentially better product for consumers because the knowledge base of a superior country in manufacturing the said component would be utilized.

One benefit of Globalization is that better products than can be made locally can be sourced from outside countries so that products are better and stronger.

If a company imports components it could be because they are trying to save costs or it could be that they found Superior products than they did at home. Should the latter be the case then there is a chance that they will make better products because of these better components.

b. Recommend

Answers

Answer:

Suggestion 1: Not Recommended

Suggestion 2: Recommended

Suggestion 3: Not Recommended

Explanation:

The law of demand says that the increase in the price of the commodity will result in decrease in the utility derived from that product and as a result the consumption of the product falls.

So by keeping the law of demand in view, we can say that the:

Reduction in price of public transportation is not recommended because every transporter will start investing in public transport and we will have higher number of buses per person.The increase in the price of parking and gasoline is recommended as the increase in parking fees and gasoline cost will discourage people to buy private transportation.Offer of monthly and yearly passes to reduce the price per ride is not recommended as it encourages the cyclists to travel via bus. Hence it is not recommended.

A stock has an expected return of 12.6 percent, the risk-free rate is 7 percent, and the market risk premium is 10 percent. What must the beta of this stock be

Answers

Answer:

0.56

Explanation:

In this question we used the Capital Asset Pricing Model formula i.e shown below:

As we know that

Expected rate of return = Risk free rate of return + Beta × market risk premium

12.6% = 7% + Beta × 10%

12.6% - 7% = Beta × 10%

5.6% = Beta × 10%

So, the beta is

= 5.6% ÷ 10%

= 0.56

Hence, the beta of the stock is 0.56

The stock of Wiley United has a beta of 1. The market risk premium is 11.5 percent and the risk-free rate is 2.3 percent. What is the expected return on this stock in percent

Answers

Answer:

9.41%

Explanation:

Wiley United has a beta of 1

The market risk premium 11.5%

= 11.5/100

=0.115

Risk free rate is 2.3%

= 2.3/100

= 0.023

Therefore the expected rate of return can be calculated as follows

Expected rate of return= Risk free rate+beta(market return-risk free rate)

= 0.023+1(0.115-0.023)

= 1.023(0.092)

= 0.0941×100

=9.41%

Hence the expected return on the stock is 9.41%

(Be sure to indicate your calculations for mean and standard deviation)

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the true mean would be between 3.39 and 6.01

Explanation:

In order to calculate the 95% confidence interval for the true mean we would have to calculate first the mean and standard deviation as follows:

mean=∑Xi/n

mean=$3.60 $4.50 $2.80 $6.30 $2.60 $5.20 $6.75 $4.25 $8.00 $3.00/10

mean=4.7

standard deviation=√∑(Xi-mean)∧2/n-1

standard deviation=1.83

t critical=2.262

The confidence interval=mean +/- t critical*standard deviation/√10

The confidence interval=4.7 +/- 2.262*1.8338/√10

The confidence interval=(3.39, 6.01)

The 95% confidence interval for the true mean would be between 3.39 and 6.01

Westchester Corp. is considering two equally risky, mutually exclusive projects, both of which have normal cash flows. Project A has an IRR of 11%, while Project B's IRR is 14%. When the WACC is 8%, the projects have the same NPV. Given this information, which of the following statements is CORRECT?a. If the WACC is 9%, Project A's NPV will be higher than Project B's. b. If the WACC is greater than 14%, Project A's IRR will exceed Project B's. c. If the WACC is 13%, Project A's NPV will be higher than Project B's. d. If the WACC is 9%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's. e. If the WACC is 6%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's.

Answers

Answer:

d. If the WACC is 9%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's.

Explanation:

The internal rate of return is the return in which the NPV is zero i.e cash inflows equal to the initial investment

While the WACC refers to the cost of capital by considering the capital structure i.e cost of equity, cost of preferred stock and cost of debt by taking their weightage

Now if the WACC is 9% so project B NPV would be higher as compared to project A as we can see that project B IRR is greater than the project A IRR

Therefore option d is correct

Compute the debt to equity ratio at December 31, 2018. (Round your answer to two decimal places, X XX)
Total liabilities Total stockholders' equity Debt to equity ratio

Answers

Answer: 1.5

Explanation:

The debt to equity ratio will be calculated as total liabilities divided by the total equities.

The total liabilities is the sum of the total current liabilities and the long term liabilities. This will be:

= 38420 + 179,530

= $217950

Total equities will be the difference between the total assets and total liabilities. This will be:

Total asset = 264,350 + 36,800 + 62,100

= $363,250

Total equity = total asset - total liability

= $363,250 - $217,950

= $145,300

Debt to equity ratio = total liabilities/total equity

= 217950/145,300

= 1.5

Answers

Answer:

Include information from a wide range of sources in their reviews.

Explanation:

Performance appraisal refers to the evaluation of employees' performance by the human resource managers in an organization. The 360-degree feedback performance appraisal system is a type of performance appraisal that sources information about an employee from various sources, which ranges from subordinates, lateral and supervisory sources. This implies that the manager seeks to gain insight about the employee from his fellow employees, from his supervisors, his subordinates, and sometimes from external sources such as the customers who interact with that employee on a daily basis.

Most managers use this system of appraisal for developmental purposes and evaluation of an employee's performance. Information sourced can then be used to help the employees improve on their skills or promote/demote them.

The nominal interest rate in Fiji is 3%, while the nominal interest rate in the U.S. is 5%. Real interest rates in both countries are 2%. According to purchasing power parity (PPP), the Fijian dollar (F$) may be expected to ________ by ________%.

Answers

Answer:

1.98%

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:-

As we know that

PPP equation i.e

Nominal Interest rate = Real interest rate + Inflation rate

Now

The Inflation rate for Fiji is

= 5% - 2%

= 3%

And, the Inflation rate for US is

= 3% - 2%

= 1%

As we can see that the inflation rate for Fiji is more than the inflation rate for US so we should be depreciated the currency by considering the inflation differential which is shown below:

= (1 + 3%) ÷ (1 + 1%) -1

= 1.98%

As a Cost and Management Consultant in the banking industry in Ghana, one of your highly esteemed clients, a top tier banking institution in Ghana has required of you to advise them as to whether target costing can be applied to the banking industry in Ghana. They further require you to advise them on what products or services can target costing be applied

Answers

Answer with its Explanation:

The target costing is a costing technique that helps to reduce the cost of the company operations by setting cost targets for the operations. The first step under target costing is to set a selling price for the product and the second step is to set the target profit margin. Now at this position we are able to derive the target cost by taking the difference of profit margin and the selling price of the product. At this stage the actions and reforms required to achieve this target cost are determined and implemented in the current operating activities. The best part of the target costing is that it says that the pricing though matters but the main aspect of a product success is its cost controls. If the company is able to control the cost of the product then it can control the movement of prices in the market. So target costing specially focuses and stresses upon cost control procedures.

As Target costing is all about cost controlling and can be applied to any sector. In Ghana, target costing will help to control the cost of the services that the banking sector renders to its customers. This reduction in services cost can be achieved by automation, installation of new softwares, Investing in automated teller machines, etc. By gaining efficiencies, the banking sector will substantially reduce its cost thus achieving its target cost.

By achieving the target cost the bank will have to sell at the same rate as the bank had invested its time and money in efficiency gaining activities. There are a lot of activities and products that can be automated and that can help to achieve the target cost. For example, promoting internet banking will reduce the cost of ATM management, paper cost, management time, additional branch opening or extension of building, etc. We can see how easily internet banking will assist the banking sector to achieve its target costs.

The calculated cost of trade credit for a firm that buys on terms of 2/10, net 30, is lower (other things held constant) if the firm plans to pay in 40 days than in 30 days.
A. True
B. False

Answers

Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

The terms of 2/10, net 30 implies that the firm is entitled to receive a 2 percent discount if it makes payment within 10 days for the goods it bought on term but the seller expects to pay full amount of the amount due in 30 days if it fails to pay within 10 days.

However, since there will be no more discount after the discount period, the cost of trade credit will continue to fall longer the payment is extended. For this question this can be demonstrated using the formula for calculating the cost of trade discount as follows:

Cost of trade discount = {[1 + (discount rate / (1 - discount rate))]^(365/days after discount)} - 1 ................... (1)

We can now applying equation (1) as follows:

For payment in 40 days

Cost of trade credit (payment in 40 days)= {[1 + (0.02 / (1 - 0.02))]^(365/40)} - 1 = 0.202436246672765, or 20%

For payment in 30 days

Cost of trade credit (payment in 30 days) = {[1 + (0.02 / (1 - 0.02))]^(365/30)} - 1 = 0.278643315029666, or 28%

Conclusion

Since the 20% calculated cost of trade credit for payment in 40 days is lower than 28% calculated cost of trade credit for payment in 30 days, the correct option is A. True. That is, the calculated cost of trade credit for a firm that buys on terms of 2/10, net 30, is lower (other things held constant) if the firm plans to pay in 40 days than in 30 days.

Targaryen Corporation has a target capital structure of 70 percent common stock, 5 percent preferred stock, and 25 percent debt. Its cost of equity is 10 percent, the cost of preferred stock is 5 percent, and the pretax cost of debt is 6 percent. The relevant tax rate is 23 percent.1. What is the company's WACC?2. What is the aftertax cost of debt?

Answers

Answer:

1. 8.41 %

2.4.62 %

Explanation:

Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is the cost of capital for all company projects.It shows  the risk of the company.

WACC = Ke×(E/V) + Kp×(P/V) + Kd×(D/V)

           = 0.10 × 70% + 0.05 × 5% + 0.06 × 77%× 25%

           = 8.405 or 8.41 %

After tax cost of debt = Market Interest × ( 1 - tax rate)

                                   = 0.06 × (1 - 0.23)

                                   =  4.62 %

A company issued 8%, 15-year bonds with a par value of $550,000 that pay interest semiannually. The market rate on the date of issuance was 8%. The journal entry to record each semiannual interest payment is:

Answers

Answer:

                                                               Debit                             Credit

Bond Interest Expense                        $22,000

   Cash                                                                                        $22,000

Being semi-annual interest payment on bonds

Explanation:

The semi-interest payment on the bonds equals

Coupon rate × par Value × 1/2

Semi-annual interest payment = 8%× 550,000 × 1/2=22,000

Semi- annual payment = $22,000

The accounting entry to record the interest payment each time payment is made would be:

                                                               Debit                             Credit

Bond Interest Expense                        $22,000

   Cash                                                                                        $22,000

Being semi-annual interest payment on bonds

Note that interest payment is an expense, hence to increase an expense the expense account is debit. On the other hand. the interest payment is a cash outflow, which reduces the cash asset, hence the cash account is credited.
