Quantitative Problem: Barton Industries expects that its target capital structure for raising funds in the future for its capital budget will consist of 40% debt, 5% preferred stock, and 55% common equity. Note that the firm's marginal tax rate is 25%. Assume that the firm's cost of debt, rd, is 9.0%, the firm's cost of preferred stock, rp, is 8.2% and the firm's cost of equity is 11.6% for old equity, rs, and 11.9% for new equity, re. What is the firm's weighted average cost of capital (WACC1) if it uses retained earnings as its source of common equity

Answers

Answer: 9.49%

Explanation:

Formula for WACC:

WACC = (Cost of Equity * Weight of equity) + [(Cost of debt * weight of debt) * (1 - tax rate)] + (Cost of Preference share * weight of preference share).

As we are using retained earnings, this is not a new stock issue so the relevant cost of equity to use is the old one.

WACC = (11.6% * 55%) + [(9% * 40%) * (1 - 25%)] + (8.2% * 5%)

= 9.49%

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Free Enterprise system or market economy is where the individuals have the chance to make decisions on their own. This means that there are no government restrictions.

In this type of economy, the desires of the consumers and the profit-making goals of the producers help in determining what will be produced. In the same manner, the decision on how to produce will be determined by the Labour and the management.

To sum it up, this system allows the individual to decide on the purchasing of goods, the selling of the product, the hiring of Labour, and the type of structure they want to work on, giving them full freedom and responsibility to make decisions.

Fixed expenses are $214,000 per month. The marketing manager believes that a $7,500 increase in the monthly advertising budget would result in a 190 unit increase in monthly sales. What should be the overall effect on the company's monthly net operating income of this change? rev: 03_09_2018_

Answers

Answer:

Effect on income= $9,600 increase

Explanation:

Giving the following formula:

Unitary contribution margin= $90

The marketing manager believes that a $7,500 increase in the monthly advertising budget would result in a 190 unit increase in monthly sales.

To calculate the effect on income, we need to use the following formula:

Effect on income= increase in total contribution margin - increase in fixed costs

Effect on income= 190*90 - 7,500

Effect on income= 17,100 - 7,500

Effect on income= $9,600 increase

There is an investment with the discount rate of 6 %. What should be the present value of the investment if we want to get a net cash flow of $17500;
a) After 1 year
b) After 2 years
c) After 3 years

Answers

Answer:

a. $16,509.434

b. $15,574.94

c. $14,693.34

Explanation:

The calculation of the present value for the following cases is  

 we know that

Present Value = Future Value ÷ (1+ rate of interest)^number of years

a. After one year

= $17,500 ÷ (1 + 0.06)^1

= $16,509.434

b. After 2 years

= $17,500 ÷ (1 + 0.06)^2

= $17,500 ÷ 1.1236

= $15,574.94

c. After 3 years

= $17,500 ÷ (1 + 0.06)^3

= $17,500 ÷ 1.191016

= $14,693.34

Therefore, the present value after one year, 2 years and third year is $16,509.434 ,$15,574.94 and $14,693.34 respectively

a. real GDP would be higher but the price level would be lower
b. both real GDP and the price level would be lower
c. real GDP would be higher but the price level would be the same
d. both real GDP and the price level would be higher

Answers

Answer:

C. Real GDP would be higher but the price level would be the same

Explanation:

Real gdp would get to be higher as long run aggregate supply goes up. Prices would go down because as long run aggregate supply goes up, aggregate demand does not experience the same proportional increase. As long run aggregate supply goes up, short run aggregate supply falls backwards.

On January 1, 2020, Doone Corporation acquired 80 percent of the outstanding voting stock of Rockne Company for $448,000 consideration. At the acquisition date, the fair value of the 20 percent noncontrolling interest was $112,000, and Rockne's assets and liabilities had a collective net fair value of $560,000. Doone uses the equity method in its internal records to account for its investment in Rockne. Rockne reports net income of $170,000 in 2021. Since being acquired, Rockne has regularly supplied inventory to Doone at 25 percent more than cost. Sales to Doone amounted to $230,000 in 2020 and $330,000 in 2021. Approximately 30 percent of the inventory purchased during any one year is not used until the following year.


Requied:
a. What is the noncontrolling interest's share of Rockne's 2021 income?
b. Prepare Doone's 2021 consolidation entries required by the intra-entity inventory transfers

Answers

Answer:

(A). $32,800

(B). Entries are shown below.

Explanation:

(A) According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

Net income of Rockne Company in 2021 = $170,000

Unrealized profit 2020 = $230,000 × 30% × 20%  = $13,800

Unrealized profit 2021 = $330,000 × 30% × 20%  = $19,800

So, Total income = $170,000 + $13,800 - $19,800 = $164,000

Now, noncontrolling interest's share of Rockne's 2021 income can be calculated as follows,

NCI share of Rockne's 2021 income = Total income × 20%

= $164,000 × 20%

= $32,800

(B). Journal entries for the given data are as follows,

Marigold Corp. issued at a premium of $10500 a $192000 bond issue convertible into 4700 shares of common stock (par value $20). At the time of the conversion, the unamortized premium is $4000, the market value of the bonds is $212000, and the stock is quoted on the market at $60 per share. If the bonds are converted into common, what is the amount of paid-in capital in excess of par to be recorded on the conversion of the bonds

Answers

Answer: $102000

Explanation:

The following can be deduced fkem the question:

Face value of bonds = $192000

Unamortized Premium = $4000

Conversion of Equity Shares = 4700 x $20 = $94000

Paid in Capital in Excess of Par = $192000 + $4000 - $94000

= $102000

Barton Industries expects next year's annual dividend, D1, to be $2.00 and it expects dividends to grow at a constant rate g = 4.2%. The firm's current common stock price, P0, is $20.00. If it needs to issue new common stock, the firm will encounter a 4.5% flotation cost, F. What is the flotation cost adjustment that must be added to its cost of retained earnings? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

The flotation cost adjustment that must be added to its cost of retained earnings will be calculated thus:

= Expected dividend / [Current price × (1 - Floatation cost)] + Expected growth rate

= 2.00/[20.00 × (1 - 4.5%)] + 4.2%

= 2.00 /[20.00 × (1 - 0.045)] + 0.042

= 2.00 / (20.00 × 0.955) + 0.042

= (2.00/19.10) + 0.042

= 0.104712 + 0.042

= 0.146712

New cost of equity = 14.67%

You didn't give the cost of equity calculated without the flotation adjustment. Let's assume that this is maybe 11%, the floatation on adjustment factor = 14.67% - 11% = 3.67%

Staples Corporation would have had identical income before taxes on both its income tax returns and its income statements for the years 2020 through 2023 except for a depreciable asset that cost $120,000. The asset was 100% expensed for tax purposes in 2020. However, for accounting purposes the straight-line method was used (that is, $30,000 per year). The accounting and tax periods both end December 31. There were no deferred taxes at the beginning of 2020. The depreciable asset has a four-year estimated life and no residual value. The tax rate for each year was 25%. Pretax GAAP income amounts for each of the four years were as follows:

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Cost of depreciable asset = $120,000

Estimated useful life = 4 years

Residual value = $0

Tax depreciation expense = 100% in 2020

GAAP depreciation expense = 25% in 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023

2020 Tax Taxable Income = $110,000 ($230,000-$120,000)

GAAP Taxable Income = GAAP minus Annual Depreciation

b) Tax Taxable Income = GAAP income of $230,000 minus 100% depreciation ($120,000) for the first year and 0% for the remaining years.  This gives rise to temporary differences in 2020 between the calculated tax payable and the tax expense for the following years.  While in the first year, there arose a tax liability, this is offset in subsequent years.

Given these facts, based on the Generic Business Strategies framework, we might say that Geralt occupies the_______ (1) quadrant of the framework.
When Geralt takes a contract from a rich village seeking his aid, they represent a/n _______(2)
Geralt often buys potions and elixirs from various alchemists to help his fighting ability. However, he can make these potions and elixirs himself if he has the time. If he were to do this instead of buying from the alchemists, this would constitute a form of________ (3)
When Geralt takes a contract, it usually requires about a week of planning and preparation, which includes trips to the armorer, time spent making alchemical concoctions that protect him during the confrontation with the monster(s), and the staking out of ideal fighting ground when the battle occurs. As such, Geralt ofter has to choose between contracts, sometimes accepting one contract while forgoing the opportunity to pursue another contract. As we have discussed, this decision constitutes a_________ (4).
Now, let's say that Geralt is governed by a neutral "Council of Witchers" that ensure that those who purchase Geralt's services (e.g., rich villages or principalities plagued by monster infestations) are well-served, and that Geralt spends their gold in ways that work toward the removal of the targeted monsters which these clients have paid to have removed.
We might say that this "Council" serves as Geralt's role in this arrangement. Geralt, in turn, serves as the ______(5) and that the purchasers of Geralt's services, such as rich villages, represent the________ (6) in this arrangement. х (1) differentiation (2) buyer х (3) forward integration (4) tradeoff (5) management х (6) party __________(7) agent

Answers

Answer: 1. Differentiation focus

2. Buyer

3. Backward Integration

4. Trade off

5. Board of directors

6. Principal

7. Agent

Explanation:

1. Geralt is using Differentiation focus strategy as it gives the customers a product which they believe is superior than other similar products although the price if the product is higher than others. The product is unique from other products.

2. When Geralt takes a contract from a rich village seeking his aid, they represent a buyer.

3. If Geralt makes the potions and elixirs himself if he has the time rather than buying from the alchemists, this would constitute a form of backward integration. This is because he's expanding his role by taking up a task that's being completed previously in the supply chain.

4. Since Geralt has to choose between contracts, this is a trade off. Trade occurs when we've to choose between alternatives. In this case, we forgo some at the expense of others.

5. Based in the information given, Geralt serves as the board of director.

6. Those who buy Geralt's services, such as rich villages, represent the Principal.

7. Geralt serves as the agent. He's the one negotiating contracts and supplying what's needed.

Meiji Isetan Corp. of Japan has two regional divisions with headquarters in Osaka and Yokohama. Selected data on the two divisions follow: Division Osaka Yokohama Sales $ 3,000,000 $ 9,000,000 Net operating income $ 210,000 $ 720,000 Average operating assets $ 1,000,000 $ 4,000,000 Required: 1. For each division, compute the return on investment (ROI) in terms of margin and turnover. 2. Assume that the company evaluates performance using residual income and that the minimum required rate of return for any division is 15%. Compute the residual income for each division. 3. Is Yokohama’s greater amount of residual income an indication that it is better managed?

Answers

Answer:

1. Return on Investment = Sales Margin / Capital turnover

= (Net income / Sales) ÷ (Assets / Sales)

Osaka:

= (210,000 / 3,000,000) ÷ (1,000,000 / 3,000,000)

= 0.07 / 0.33

= 21%

Yokohama

= (720,000 / 9,000,000) ÷ (4,000,000 / 9,000,000)

= 0.08 / 0.44

= 18%

2. Residual income = Operating income * (Required return * Average operating assets)

Osaka = 210,000 - (15% * 1,000,000)

= $60,000

Yokohama = 720,000 - (15% * 4,000,000)

= $120,000

c. No is isn't because Residual income is not a good matric to use to compare companies or departments as it does not show the amount of assets used by the companies being compared.

On January 1, 2021, Rapid Airlines issued $240 million of its 8% bonds for $221 million. The bonds were priced to yield 10%. Interest is payable semiannually on June 30 and December 31. Rapid Airlines records interest at the effective rate and elected the option to report these bonds at their fair value. On December 31, 2021, the fair value of the bonds was $229 million as determined by their market value in the over-the-counter market. Rapid determined that $1,000,000 of the increase in fair value was due to a decline in general interest rates.

Required:
Prepare the journal entries to record interest on June 30, 2021 (the first interest payment), on December 31, 2021 (the second interest payment) and to adjust the bonds to their fair value for presentation in the December 31, 2021, balance sheet.

emiannual coupon bonds with the same risk (Aaa) and maturity (20 years) as your company's bonds have a nominal (not EAR) yield to maturity of 9%. Your company's treasurer is thinking of issuing, at par, some $1,000 par value, 20-year, quarterly payment bonds. She has asked you to determine what quarterly interest payment, in dollars, the company would have to set in order to provide the same effective annual rate (EAR) as those on the 20-year, semiannual payment bonds. What would the quarterly, dollar interest payment be

Answers

Answer:

quarterly coupon payment = $22.25

Explanation:

effective annual interest rate of current bonds = (1 + 9%/2)² - 1 = 9.2025%

if the new bonds will have quarterly payments, then the nominal interest rate should be:

1.092025 = (1 + r/4)⁴

⁴√1.092025 = ⁴√(1 + r/4)⁴

1.02225 = 1 + r/4

0.02225 = r/4

r = 8.9% annual

quarterly rate = 2.225%

quarterly coupon payment = $22.25
