Answer: 12%
Explanation:
First find the Inflation premium:
= Nominal risk free rate - Real risk free rate
= 13% - 3%
= 10%
Plug it into the following equation:
Inflation premium = { (2 * expected average inflation rate over the next two years) + Inflation rate for third year) } / 3
10% = { (2 * 9%) + 1₃} / 3
3 * 10% = { (2 * 9%) + 1₃}
30% = 18% + I₃
I₃ = 30% - 18%
I₃ = 12%

Ring Me Up Inc. has net income of $143,100 for the year ended December 31, 2019. At the beginning of the year, 36,000 shares of common stock were outstanding. On May 1, an additional 18,000 shares were issued. On December 1, the company purchased 4,300 shares of its own common stock and held them as treasury stock until the end of the year. No other changes in common shares outstanding occurred during the year. During the year, Ring Me Up paid the annual dividend on the 9,000 shares of 4.65%, $100 par value preferred stock that were outstanding the entire year.
Required:
Calculate basic earnings per share of common stock for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Answer:
$2.13
Explanation:
Computation what the basic earnings per share of common stock for the year ended December 31, 2019 be
Using this formula
Basic earnings per share = Net income - preferred dividends / Weighted average no of shares outstanding
Let plug in the formula
Basic earnings per share = $143,100 - (9,000*4.65%*100) / (36,000*12/12)+(18,000*8/12) - (4,300*1/12)
Basic earnings per share = $143,100 - 41,850 / 36,000+12,000 - 358
Basic earnings per share = 101,250 / 47,642
Basic earnings per share =$2.13
Therefore the basic earnings per share of common stock for the year ended December 31, 2019 be $2.13

On May 31, Money Corporation's Cash account showed a balance of $17,000 before the bank reconciliation was prepared. After examining the May bank statement and items included with it, the company's accountant found the following items: Checks outstanding $ 2,850 Deposits outstanding 3,200 NSF check 120 Service fees 110 Error: Money Corp. wrote a check for $50 but recorded it incorrectly for $500. What is the amount of cash that should be reported in the company's balance sheet as of May 31
Answer:
$17,460
Explanation:
The computation of adjusted cash balance is seen below;
Cash account balance
$17,000
NSF check
$120
Service fees
($110)
Amended mistake
$450
Adjusted cash balance
$17,460
The amount of cash that should be reported in the company's balance sheet as of May 31 is $17,460.
Here, the outstanding check and deposit in transit are adjustment for the bank balance and not the firm's cash accounting.
Also, we need to look for the data such as non sufficient funds, service fees etc which were not known until the bank statement was received.

The last dividend paid by Wilden Corporation was $3.50. The dividend growth rate is expected to be constant at 1.5% for 2 years, after which dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 8.0% forever. The firm's required return (rs) is 12.0%. What is the best estimate of the current stock price? Select the correct answer. a. $87.92 b. $83.66 c. $82.24 d. $85.08 e. $86.50
Answer:
b. $83.66
Explanation:
The computation of the best estimated price of the current stock price is shown below:
But before that following calculations need to be done
Dividend at year 0 = $3.50
Dividend at year 1 = $3.50 × 1.015 = $3.5525
Dividend at year 2 = $3.5525 × 1.015 = $3.6058
Dividend at year 3 = $3.6058 × 1.08 = $3.8943
Now price at year 2 is
= $3.8943 ÷ (12% - 8%)
= $97.3563
Now the current stock price is
= $3.5525 ÷ (1.12) + ($3.6058 + $97.3563)÷ (1.12)^2
= $3.1719 + $8.4863
= $83.66
Atul purchased goods costing Rs 50000 at an invoice price,which is 50% above cost.. on invoice price je enjoyed 15% trade discount and Rs 3750 cash discount on cash payment of goods in lump sum at the time of purchase ...the purchase price to be recorded in the books will be
Answer: Rs 63750
Explanation:
Since Atul purchased goods costing Rs 50000 at an invoice price,which is 50% above cost. Then the purchase of the goods cost:
= 50000 × (100% + 25%)
= 50000 × 125%
= 50000 × 1.25
= Rs 75000
We then deduct the trade discount of 15% to get the purchase price to be recorded in the book. This will be:
= 75000 × (100% - 15%)
= 75000 × 85%
= 75000 × 0.85
= 63750
Therefore, the answer is Rs63750

Six Sigma is a quality business management strategy which helps business organizations to improve the quality of processes, products and services by discovering and eliminating defects, variations or errors. It is a strategic business concept that was developed in 1986 by Motorola.
Under the six sigma approach, any process that doesn't provide customer satisfaction or causes challenges in an organisation's process should be eliminated from the system in order to produce quality products and services. It allows only 3.4 defective features for every million opportunities and as such expects processes to be defect free 99.99966 percent of the time.
The following activities are carried out in accordance with the Six Sigma model;
External failure activities are activities required after defective products or services are delivered to customers.
The other terminologies used in the manufacturing process includes;
- Prevention: seek to prevent defects in the products or services being produced.
- Appraisal: inspect inputs and attributes of individual units of products or services to detect whether they conform to specifications or customer expectations.
- Internal failure activities: correct defective processes or products and services before they are delivered to customers.

Lego
The two types of operations management decisions that were addressed by Lego's decision to end production in the US are:
d. Location strategy
g. Supply chain management
Explanation:
Lego decided to close its production facilities in the U.S.A because of the shifting customer demand. There has been a growing demand for electronics by children as against plastic toys. This is why it was able to contract out its production activities to a Singapore-based manufacturer with factories in Mexico and eastern Europe. So the company is strategically moving its production to countries that have high demand for its products and, at the same time, enjoying some tax benefits.
Assume that the risk-free rate is 5.5% and the required return on the market is 12%. What is the required rate of return on a stock with a beta of 1.8
Answer: 17.2%
Explanation:
You can use the Capital Asset Pricing Model to calculate the required return here given the variables in the question:
Required return = Risk free rate + beta * (Market return - risk free rate)
= 5.5% + 1.8 * ( 12% - 5.5%)
= 5.5% + 11.7%
= 17.2%

The following activities affected common shares during the year: There are no potential common shares outstanding. 2016 Feb. 27 Purchased 18 million shares of treasury stock. Oct. 30 Sold the treasury shares purchased on February 27. Nov. 29 Issued 72 million new shares. Dec. 31 Net income for 2016 is $1,200 million. 2017 Jan. 14 Declared and issued a 2 for 1 stock split. Dec. 31 Net income for 2017 is $1,200 million. Required: 1. Determine the 2016 EPS. 2. Determine the 2017 EPS. 3. At what amount will the 2016 EPS be presented in the 2017 comparative financial statements
Answer:
1. $2.00
2. $0.88
3. $1.00
Explanation:
1. Calculation to determine the 2016 EPS
First step is to calculate the Total Movement of shares and WACSO
Date Movement of shares Ratio WACSO(no. of shares * Ratio)
1-Jan-16 $606 million*12/12 =$606 million
28-Feb-16 (18 million)*10/12=(15 million)
31-Oct-16 18 million*2/12=3 million
30-Nov-16 72 million*1/12=6 million
Total 678 million 600 million
Now let calculate 2016 EPS
Net income $1,200 million
÷Divided by WACSO 600 million
=EPS $2.00
($1,200 million/600 million)
Therefore 2016 EPS will be $2.00
2. Calculation to determine 2017 Earnings per share
First step is to calculate the No. of shares outstanding after stock split
No. of shares outstanding as of 2017 678 million
*Stock split 2
=No. of shares outstanding after stock split 1,356 million
(678 million*2)
Now let calculate 2017 EPS
Net income $1,200 million
÷Divided by WACSO 1,356 million
=EPS 0.88
($1,200 million/1,356 million)
Therefore 2017 EPS will be $0.88
3. Calculation to determine At what amount will the 2016 EPS be presented in the 2017
First step is calculate No. of shares outstanding after stock split
Wacso based on item no. 1 600 million
*Stock split 2
=No. of shares outstanding after stock split 1200 million
(600 million*2)
Now let calculate the 2016 EPS be presented in the 2017
Net income 1200 million
÷Divided by WACSO 1200 million
=EPS 1.00
(1200 million/1200 million)
Therefore At what amount will the 2016 EPS be presented in the 2017 will be $1.00
1. Suppose two types of firms wish to borrow in the bond market. Firms of type A are in good financial health and are relatively low risk. The appropriate premium over the risk-free rate of lending to these firms is 2%. Firms of type B are in poor financial health and are relatively high risk. The appropriate premium over the risk-free rate of lending to these firms is 6%. As an investor, you have no other information about these firms except that type A and type B firms exist in equal numbers. a. At what interest rate would you be willing to lend if the risk-free rate were 5%
Answer:
Type A is 7%, type b is 11%
Explanation:
We have these two firm's as type a and type b
For type A
Interest would be = risk Free rate of 2% + risk free rate of 5% = 7%
For type B
= Risk free rate of 5% + risk free rate of 6% = 11%
I would use the average of this two 9% as interest but this is not going to work for type A because this interest rate is too high. People won't want to pay this much.
Danks Corporation purchased a patent for $405,000 on September 1, 2019. It had a useful life of 10 years. On January 1, 2021, Danks spent $99,000 to successfully defend the patent in a lawsuit. Danks feels that as of that date, the remaining useful life is 5 years. What amount should be reported for patent amortization expense for 2021?
Answer:
Amortization Expense for year 2021 $90,000
Explanation:
The computation of the amount that should be reported for patent amortization for the year 2021 is shown below:
But before that following calculations need to be done
The value of the patent as of 31st Dec, 2020
Purchase Value as of Sep 1,2019 $405000
Less:- Amortization Expense for the year 2019 $13,500
($405000 ÷ 10 × 4 ÷ 12)
Less:- amortization expense for the year 2020 $40500 ($405,000 ÷ 10)
Value of patent as on 1st Jan, 2021 $351,000
Add:- fees to defend $99000
New Book Value for the year 2021 $450,000
Now Remaining Useful Life 5 years
So,
Amortization Expense for year 2021 $90,000 ($450,000 ÷ 5)

plies manufacturing overhead at the rate of $40 per machine hour. Budgeted machine hours for the current period were anticipated to be 120,000; however, a lengthy strike resulted in actual machine hours being worked of only 90,000. Budgeted and actual manufacturing overhead figures for the year were $4,800,000 and $4,180,000, respectively. On the basis of this information, the company's year-end overhead was:
Answer:
$580,000 under applied.
Explanation:
The computation of the company's year end overhead is seen below;
The applied overhead is
= Predetermined overhead rate × actual machine hours
= $40 × 90,000
= $3,600,000
Then, the applied overhead
= $4,180,000 - $3,600,000
= $580,000
Hence, the ending overhead is $580,000 under applied
It is now January 1, 2013, and you are considering the purchase of an outstanding bond that was issued on January 1, 2011. It has a 7 percent annual coupon and had a 30-year original maturity. (It matures on December 31, 2040.) There were 11 years of call protection (until December 31, 2021), after which time it can be called at 108.5 percent of par, or $1,085. Interest rates have fallen since the bond was issued, and it is now selling at 115.5 percent of par, or $1,155. If you bought this bond, what rate of return would you probably earn, assuming you hold the bonds until they either mature or are called
Answer:
a. Assuming you hold the bonds until they mature, the rate of return you would probably earn is the YTM of 5.89%.
b. Assuming you hold the bonds until they are called, the rate of return you would probably earn is the YTC of 5.65%.
Explanation:
This can be determined by calculating the YTM and YTC as follows:
a. Calculation of Yield to Maturity (YTM)
The bond's Yield to Maturity can be calculated using the following RATE function in Excel:
YTM = RATE(nper,pmt,-pv,fv) .............(1)
Where;
YTM = yield to maturity = ?
nper = number of periods = number of years to maturity = 30
pmt = annual coupon payment = annual coupon rate * Face value = 7% * $1,000 = $70 = 70
pv = present value = current bond price = $1,155 = 1155
fv = face value or par value of the bond = 1000
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
YTM = RATE(30,70,-1155,1000) ............ (2)
Inputting =RATE(30,70,-1155,1000) into excel (Note: as done in the attached excel file), the YTM is obtained as 5.89%.
Therefore, assuming you hold the bonds until they mature, the rate of return you would probably earn is the YTM of 5.89%.
b. Calculation of Yield to Call (YTC)
The bond's Yield to call can be calculated using the following RATE function
in Excel:
YTC = RATE(nper,pmt,-pv,fv) .....................(3)
Where;
YTM = yield to call = ?
nper = number of periods = number of years of call protection = 11
pmt = annual coupon payment = annual coupon rate * Face value = 7% * $1,000 = $70 = 70
pv = present value = current bond price = $1,155 = 1155
fv = future value of the bond or the amount at which the bond can be called = $1,085 = 1085
Substituting the values into equation (3), we have:
YTM = RATE(11,70,-1155,1085) ............ (4)
Inputting =RATE(11,70,-1155,1085) into excel (Note: as done in the attached excel file), the YTM is obtained as 5.65%.
Therefore, assuming you hold the bonds until they are called, the rate of return you would probably earn is the YTC of 5.65%.
