Answer: 50,000
Explanation:
The question shows that at the current number of accident per period which is 35,000, 0.1 fatalities are recorded.
If the new seat belt law reduces the fatality rate from 0.1 to 0.07, how many accidents would have to occur for the new law to match the previous fatality rate given the previous number of accidents.
Let the new number of accidents be x;
35,000 * 0.1 = 0.07 * x
3,500 = 0.07x
x = 3,500/0.07
= 50,000
At 50,000 accidents, the new law will cause the same amount of fatalities than before. Anything more than 50,000 would lead to more fatalities than before.
Insurance companies are rated by several rating agencies. The Fitch 20-point scale is AAA, AA+, AA, AA–, A+, A, A–, BBB+, BBB, BBB–, BB+, BB, BB–, B+, B, B–, CCC+, CCC, CCC–, DD. (a) What level of measurement does this scale use?
Answer:
The ordinal measurement
Explanation:
In this question, we are concerned with knowing the level of measurement used by this scale
The correct answer to this is the ordinal measurement.
What the ordinal scale does is that it places events in order but it does not take into account the fact that the intervals of the scale need to be equal using some sets of rule.
It only places the intervals into groups of subdivisions without having a rule that uses an interval to place members of each subdivision into their class
Accounts Receivable has a balance of $ 5 comma 000, and the Allowance for Bad Debts has a credit balance of $ 420. The allowance method is used. What is the net realizable value of Accounts Receivable after a $ 140 account receivable is written off?
Answer:
$4,580
Explanation:
since we are using the allowance method, the journal entry to record the write off is:
Dr Allowance for bad debts 140
Cr Accounts receivable 140
So the accounts receivable balance = $5,000 - $140 = $4,860
the allowance for bad debts balance = $280
accounts receivable net balance = $4,860 - $280 = $4,580
Allowance for bad debts accounts is a contra asset account that reduces the balance of accounts receivable.
You own a fixed-income asset with a duration of four years. If the level of interest rates, which is currently 8.1%, goes down by 20 basis points, how much do you expect the price of the asset to go up (in percentage terms)
Answer: 0.74%
Explanation:
Change in price of a fixed-income asset is inversely related to a change in it's interest rates.
The price change is therefore formulated by;
Δ Price of Asset = -Δ * Δy
Δ = 4 years / ( 1 + i)
= 4 / ( 1 + 8.1%)
= 3.7
A basis points refers to 0.01%. So 20 basis points 0.2%.
Δ Price of Asset = -3.7 * -0.2%
= 0.0074
= 0.74%
Price of Asset increases by 0.75%

TwitterMe, Inc., is a new company and currently has negative earnings. The company’s sales are $2.1 million and there are 130,000 shares outstanding. a. If the benchmark price-sales ratio is 4.3, what is your estimate of an appropriate stock price? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) b. What if the price-sales ratio were 3.6? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
a. $69.46
b. 58.15
Explanation:
a. Price = Benchmark PS ratio × Sales per share
Sales per Share
= Sales / Shares outstanding
= 2,100,000/130,000
= $16.15
Price = 4.3 * 16.15
Price = $69.46
b. PS Ratio is 3.6
Price = Benchmark PS ratio × Sales per share
Price = 3.6 * 16.15
Price = $58.15

Consider a 11-period binomial model with R=1.02R=1.02, S_0 = 100S 0 =100, u=1/d= 1.05u=1/d=1.05. Compute the value of a European call option on the stock with strike K=102K=102. The stock does not pay dividends. Please submit your answer rounded to two decimal places. So for example, if your answer is 3.45673.4567 then you should submit an answer of 3.463.46. 1 point
Answer: 1.76
Explanation:
Given the following :
R=1.02,
S0 = 100
u=1/d= 1.05
Strike(k) = 102
Total Payoff = (probability of upside × upside Payoff) + (probability of downside × downside Payoff)
Upside Price = u × S0 = 1.05 × 100 = 105
downside Price = S0/u = 100/1.05 = 95.24
Upside Payoff = upside price - strike rate =(105 - 102) = 3
Upside probability :
[e^(r - q) - d] / u - d
E = exponential, q = Dividend (Dividend is 0, since the stock does not pay dividend)
d = 1/d = 1/1.05 = 0.9523809
e = 2.7182818
[2.7182818^(1.02% - 0) - 0.9523809] / (1.05 - 0.9523809)
[1.0102521 - 0.9523809] / 0.0976191
0.0578712 / 0.0976191
= 0.5928266
Probability of downside = 1 - p(upside)
P(downside) = 1 - 0.5928266
P(downside) = 0.4071733
Therefore, total Payoff =
(0.5928266 × 3) + (0.4071733 × 0)
= 1.7784798
European. Call option:
Total Payoff / (1 + r%)
1.7784798 / (1 + 1.02%)
=1.7784798/ (1 + 0.0102)
= 1.7784798 / 1.0102
= 1.7605224
= 1.76

On December 2, Coley Corp. acquired 1,000 shares of its $2 par value common stock for $27 each On December 20, Coley Corp. resold 400 shares for $30 each. Which of the following is correct regarding the effect of the reselling of shares on the accounting equation?
A. Assets decrease
B. Liabilities decrease
C. Expenses increase
D. Stockholders' Equity increases
Answer:
D. Stockholders' Equity increases
Explanation:
Cost of the share being resale = 400 shares x $27 = $10,800
Proceeds on the resale of shares = 400 shares x $30 = $12,000
Profit / Gain on resale = $12,000 - $10,800 = $1,200
As there is a profit of $1,200 the stockholders equity will be increased on the reselling of share.
As the assets section is increased because more cash is received against the cost of those shares.
A publisher is deciding whether or not to invest in a new printer. The printer would cost $900, and would increase the cash flows in year 1 by $500 and in year 3 by $800. Cash flows do not change in year 2. If the interest rate is 12%, what is the present value of the cash flows from the investment
Answer:
The present value of the cash flows from the investment is $1015.85.
Explanation:
The present value of the cash flows can be calculated using the discounted cash flows approach also known as the DCF approach. Under this approach, the cash flows are discounted to the present day value using a certain discount rate.
The formula to calculate the present value of the cash flows is,
Present value = CF1 / (1+i) + CF2 / (1+i)^2 + ... + CFn / (1+i)^n
Where,
CF are the cash flowsi is the interest rate which is also the discount ratePresent value = 500 / (1+0.12) + 800 / (1+0.12)^3
Present value = $1015.85277 rounded off to $1015.85

"Its East Division has operating assets of $7,500,000, profit margin of 15%, and asset turnover of 0.80. Calculate the East Division's residual income."
Answer:
$150,000
Explanation:
Residual Income = Net Operating Income - (Operating assets x ROI)
Residual Income = 900,000 - ( 7,500,000 x 10%)
Residual Income = 900,000 - 750,000
Residual income = 150,000
NOTE: Assume ROI is 10%
Workings (net Operating Income)
Asset turnover = sales / net operating assets
0.8 x 7,500,000 = sales
sales = 6,000,000
Profit margin = Net operating income / sales
15% = Net operating income / 6,000,000
Net operating income = 6,000,000 x 15%
Net operating income = 900,000

Identify the phase (Phillips, stagflation, or recovery) the economy is in, and suggest what change in aggregate demand or aggregate supply might have caused it.
a. "President Nixon expressed satisfaction with last yearâs economic performance. He said that with inflation and unemployment heading down, the nation âis on the right course."
b. "The nationâs inflation rate rose to a record high last month, the government reported yesterday. The consumer price index jumped 0.3% in January. Coupled with the announcement earlier this month that unemployment had risen by 0.5 percentage points, the reports suggested that the first month of President Nixonâs second term had gotten off to a rocky start."
c. "President Carter expressed concern about reports of rising inflation but insisted the economy is on the right course. He pointed to recent reductions in unemployment as evidence that his economic policies are working."
Answer:
a. "President Nixon expressed satisfaction with last year's economic performance. He said that with inflation and unemployment heading down, the nation is on the right course."
⇒ RECOVERY. Economic recovery refers to the economy starting to grow again after a period of recession. A rightward shift in the aggregate supply curve should decrease unemployment and reduce inflation.
b. "The nation's inflation rate rose to a record high last month, the government reported yesterday. The consumer price index jumped 0.3% in January. Coupled with the announcement earlier this month that unemployment had risen by 0.5 percentage points, the reports suggested that the first month of President Nixon's second term had gotten off to a rocky start."
⇒ STAGFLATION. Stagflation refers to a combination of high inflation and high unemployment. A leftward shift in the aggregate supply curve can result in stagflation.
c. "President Carter expressed concern about reports of rising inflation but insisted the economy is on the right course. He pointed to recent reductions in unemployment as evidence that his economic policies are working."
⇒ PHILLIPS. According to the Phillips curve, inflation and unemployment are inversely correlated. if inflation goes up, unemployment should go down. Phillips theory was discredited due to stagflation occurring during Nixon's presidency. Nixon created stagflation for the first time in the US since it isn't normal that inflation rises as unemployment increases. That shows you how good a president he was, he even invented new things for Americans to enjoy.

chandler Communications'CFO has provided the following information: The company's capital budget is expected to be $5,000,000. The company's target capital structure is 70 percent debt and 30 percent equity. The company's net income is $4,500,000. If the company follows a residual dividend policy, what portion of its net income should it pay out as dividends this year
Answer: $3,000,000
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that a company's capital budget is expected to be $5,000,000 and that the company's target capital structure is 70 percent debt and 30 percent equity.
Equity = 30% × $5,000,000
= 30/100 × $5,000,000
= 0.3 × $5,000,000
= $1,500,000
Debt = 70% × $5,000,000
= 70/100 × $5,000,000
= 0.7 × $5,000,000
= $3,500,000
We are further told that the company's net income is $4,500,000 and since we be calculated the equity that will be needed to finance the capital budget as $1,500,000. Therefore, portion of its net income should it pay out as dividends this year will be:
= $4,500,000 - $1,500,000
= $3,000,000
The portion of its net income should it payout as dividends this year is $3,000,000.
Calculation of the dividend:Before that the following calculations need to be done.
Equity = 30% × $5,000,000
= 30/100 × $5,000,000
= 0.3 × $5,000,000
= $1,500,000
Now
Debt = 70% × $5,000,000
= 70/100 × $5,000,000
= 0.7 × $5,000,000
= $3,500,000
Now finally the dividend is
= $4,500,000 - $1,500,000
= $3,000,000
