Explanation:

Caine Bottling Corporation is considering the purchase of a new bottling machine. The machine would cost S183,399 and has an estimated useful life of 8 years with zero salvage value. Management estimates that the new bottling machine will provide net annual cash fiows of $30,000. Management also believes that the new bottling machine will save the company money because it is expected to be more reliable than other machines, and thus will reduce downtime. Assume a discount rate of 8%.
Calculate the net present value.
How much would the reduction in downtime have to be worth in order for the project to be acceptable?

Answers

Answer:

Net Present value = -$11,001Downtime reduction should be worth $11,001

Explanation:

Net Present value = Present value of cash inflows - Cost of machine

As the annual cash flows are constant, they will be treated as annuities:

Present value of cash flows = 30,000 * Present value interest factor of annuity, 8 years, 8%

= 30,000 * 5.7466

= $172,398

Net present value = 172,398 - 183,399

= -$11,001

Reduction in downtime should be worth at least $11,001 so that it would enable the project to breakeven at least.

ECB Co. has 1.25 million shares outstanding selling at $25 per share. It plans to repurchase 97,000 shares at the market price. What will be its market capitalization after the repurchase? What will be its stock price? The market capitalization after the repurchase is million. (Round to three decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

Market cap = 28.825 million

Stock price = $25

Explanation:

Current outstanding shares = 1,250,000

Current price per share = $25

So, ECB current market cap = 1,250,000 × $25 = $31,250,000

Repurchase shares = 97,000

So repurchase value = 97,000 × $25 = $2,425,000

Hence, Market capitalization after repurchase = current market cap - repurchase value

= $31,250,000 - $2,425,000 = 28,825,000 or 28.825 million

Stock price = $25

Waterway Industries estimates its sales at 240000 units in the first quarter and that sales will increase by 26000 units each quarter over the year. They have, and desire, a 25% ending inventory of finished goods. Each unit sells for $35. 40% of the sales are for cash. 70% of the credit customers pay within the quarter. The remainder is received in the quarter following sale. Cash collections for the third quarter are budgeted at:

a. $5,735,800.
b. $11,574,800.
c. $8,380,400.
d. $10,056,200.

Answers

Answer:

d. $10,056,200.

Explanation:

The computation of the cash collection for the third quarter is shown below;

Sales in quarter 1 is 240,000 units

Sales in quarter 2 is 240,000 + 26000 units = 266,000 units

And, the sales in quarter 3 is 266,000 units + 24000 units = 292,000 units

Now

= (292,000 units × $35 × 40%) + (292,000 × $35 × 60% × 70%) + (266,000 units × $35 × 60% × 30%)

= $4,088,000 + $4,292,400 + $1,675,800

= $10,056,200

Examples of successfulness of the competition policy in South Africa

Answers

Explanation:

By Kgomotso Ramotsho

The Competition Law Committee of the Law Society of the Northern Provinces held its last Annual Gala Breakfast in October 2018 in Johannesburg. The gala breakfast was organised and hosted by ENSafrica. Members of the panel discussed ‘Experiencing twenty years of competition practice’. The Competition Commission Commissioner, Tembinkosi Bonakele, said South Africa (SA) has challenges in the economic front and added that employment growth numbers were not impressive.

Mr Bonakele said this is a challenge and added that there can be talks about what the Competition Commission can contribute, however, there are concerns about the structure of the economy and concentration levels in the economy. He pointed out that another challenge, is with regards to developing competition experts. He said that SA could have done better in developing experts. He pointed out that when looking at who the experts are, the economic front is dominated by European experts, instead of local experts.

Mr Bonakele said it was easy for legal practitioners to make the transition into competition law. However, he added that another challenge is with economists. He said universities should produce a pool of economists that can help in the industry. Full-time member of the Competition Tribunal, Yasmin Carrim, added that the industry was not doing enough and that the pool of economists is small. She pointed out that it was not only up to universities to produce expert economists. She said the industry needed to grab the opportunity and utilise different strategies, such as giving practical training or internships to students, so that when they graduate they would have a sense of the work environment.

Full-time member of the Competition Tribunal, Yasmin Carrim, listed the quality of work done by competition law legal practitioners and economists in South Africa as one of the successes in the industry. She spoke at the last annual gala breakfast held in Johannesburg by the Competition Law Committee of the Law Society of the Northern Provinces.

Ms Carrim, however, said that from her personal experience, one of the successes in the industry has been the quality of work done by both legal practitioners and economists in the country. Mr Bonakele added that SA has made strides in establishing itself as a respected jurisdiction with locally developed practices and sharpened skills in the competition area, he noted that these were good signs. Judge President of the Competition Appeal Court, Dennis Davis, posed a question to Mr Bonakele with regards to work done by experts outside SA.

Mr Bonakele said the Competition Commission has relied on local experts. However, he pointed out that the issue is with the number of local experts. He noted that the country has knowledgeable experts even though they are few in numbers. He added that even though foreign experts are brought in to work in SA, they should team up with local experts as they understand the local conditions, they are open minded and are trained by the best in the world.

Olivia wants to buy some vacant land for investment purposes. She cannot afford the full purchase price. Instead, Olivia pays the landowner $14,500 to obtain an option to buy the land for $290,000 anytime in the next four years. Fourteen months after purchasing the option, Olivia sells the option for $18,125. What is the amount and character of Olivia's gain or loss?

Answers

Answer:

$3,625

Explanation:

Missing word "She has a long-term capital gain of $..................."

 

Long term capital gain = Sale price of option - Buying price of option

Long term capital gain = $18,125 - $14,500

Long term capital gain = $3,625

So, the amount and character of Olivia's long-term capital gain is $3,625.

Kaiwan, Inc., a calendar year S corporation, is partly owned by Sharrod, whose beginning stock basis is $55,000.

a. Sharrod's deductible loss.
b. Sharrod's suspended loss.
c. Sharrod's new basis in the Kaiwan stock.

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. Sharrod's deductible loss.

= Beginning stock + Long term capital gain - Cash distribution

= $55000 + $8250 - $33000

= $30250

b. Sharrod's suspended loss.

Beginning stock + Long term capital gain - Ordinary loss - Cash distribution

= $55000 + $8250 - $33,275 - $33000

= -$3025

c. Sharrod's new basis in the Kaiwan stock.

Sharrod's new basis in the Kaiwan stock is 0.

The town of Draper, with a population of 20,000, sits adjacent to State University, which has an enrollment of 27,000 students. Downtown Draper merchants have long complained about the lack of parking available to their customers. This is one primary reason for the steady migration of downtown businesses to a mall several miles outside town. The local chamber of commerce has finally convinced the town council to consider the construction of a new multilevel indoor parking facility downtown. Kelly Mattingly, the town’s public works director, has developed plans for a facility that would cost $4.5 million to construct. To pay for the project, the town would sell municipal bonds with a duration of 30 years at 8% interest. Kelly also estimates that five employees would be required to operate the lot on a daily basis, at a total annual cost of $140,000. It is estimated that each car that enters the lot would park for an average of 2.5 hours and pay an average fee of $3.20. Further, it is estimated that each car that parks in the lot would (on average) cost the town $0.60 in annual maintenance for cleaning and repairs to the facility. Most of the downtown businesses (which include a number of restaurants) are open 7 days per week.

Required:
a. Using break-even analysis, determine the number of cars that would have to park in the lot on an annual basis to pay off the project in the 30-year time frame.
b. From the results in (A), determine the approximate number of cars that would have to park in the lot on a daily basis. Does this seem to be a reasonable number to achieve, given the size of the town and college population?

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. Let the break even sales be represented by x.

Firstly, we will calculate the total fixed cost which will be:

Investment = $4.5million/30 = $150,000

Add: Annual labor cost = $140,000

Add: Interest = 8% × $4.5million = $360,000

Total Fixed cost = $650000

The total variable cost will be: = 0.60 × x = 0.60x

Therefore, total cost:

= fixed cost + variable cost

= 650000 + 0.60x

Total revenue = Selling price × sales

= 3.20 × x = 3.20x

Break even point will now be:

Total revenue = Total cost

3.20x = 650000 + 0.60x

3.20x - 0.60x = 650000

2.60x = 650000

x = 650000/2.60

x = 250000

Therefore, number of cars that would have to park in the lot on an annual basis to pay off the project is 250000.

b. The approximate number of cars that would have to park in the lot on a daily basis will be:

= 250000/365 days

= 684.91

=685 cars

The town of Marble Falls has 10 workers, of which 8 were employed and 2 were actively seeking work. After many months of seeking work, both of the unemployed workers became discouraged and stopped looking for work six weeks ago.

A) 0%

Explanation:

The unemployment rate in the town of Marble Falls refers to the portion of the active population which is not employed

Initially, there were 2 people actively searching for means of livelihood, six weeks down the line, they lost interest in job search, which means that by then, they were no longer in the unemployed category since they have stopped looking for job opportunities.

In essence, when the 2 people left the unemployed category, no one was left, which translated into the unemployment rate for the town of Marble Falls

A 15-year maturity bond with par value of $1,000 makes annual coupon payments at a coupon rate of 10%. Find the bond equivalent and effective annual yield to maturity of the bond for the following bond prices.
List Bond Equivalent Annual Effective annual
bond prices Yield to maturity Yield to maturity
a $940 % %
b $1,000 % %
c $1,040 % %

Answers

Answer:

A. Bond equivalent 10.82%

Effective annual yield to maturity of the bond 11.11%

B. Bond equivalent 10%

Effective annual yield to maturity of the bond 10.25%

C. Bond equivalent 9.49%

Effective annual yield to maturity of the bond 9.73%

Explanation:

A. Calculation to Find the bond equivalent

We would determine the yield to maturity on a semi-annual basis using Financial Calculator which is:

N = 10*2 = 30

PV = -940

PMT = [10%/2]*1000 = 50

FV = 1000

Press CPT, then I/Y, which gives us 5.41%

Bond equivalent yield to maturity=5.41% × 2

Bond equivalent yield to maturity= 10.82%

Calculation to determine the Effective Annual Yield To Maturity of the bond

Effective annual yield to maturity = (1+.0541)^2– 1

Effective annual yield to maturity = (1.0541)^2– 1

Effective annual yield to maturity =1.1111 – 1

Effective annual yield to maturity = 0.1111 *100

Effective annual yield to maturity = 11.11%

Therefore the bond equivalent and effective annual yield to maturity of the bond will be:

Bond equivalent 10.82%

Effective annual yield to maturity of the bond 11.11%

b. Calculation to determine the bond equivalent

Based on the information given the bond is selling at par which therefore means that the yield to maturity on a semi annual basis will be the same as the semi annual coupon 5%.

Bond equivalent yield to maturity =5%*2

Bond equivalent yield to maturity= 10%.

Calculation to determine Effective annual yield to maturity

Effective annual yield to maturity = (1+.05)^2– 1

Effective annual yield to maturity = (1.05)^2– 1

Effective annual yield to maturity=1.1025-1

Effective annual yield to maturity=.1025*100

Effective annual yield to maturity =10.25%

Therefore the bond equivalent and effective annual yield to maturity of the bond will be:

Bond equivalent 10%

Effective annual yield to maturity of the bond 10.25%

c.Calculation to determine the bond equivalent

N = 10*2 = 30

PV = -1,040

PMT = [10%/2]*1000 = 50

FV = 1000

Bond equivalent yield to maturity=9.49%, or 4.75% on a semi-annual basis.

Calculation to determine the Effective Annual Yield To Maturity of the bond

Effective annual yield to maturity = (1+.0475)^2– 1

Effective annual yield to maturity = (1.0475)^2– 1

Effective annual yield to maturity =1.0973– 1

Effective annual yield to maturity = 0.0973*100

Effective annual yield to maturity = 9.73%

Therefore the bond equivalent and effective annual yield to maturity of the bond will be:

Bond equivalent 9.49%

Effective annual yield to maturity of the bond 9.73%

When inventories go down in value, accountants adjust the value of the inventory that is recorded on the balance sheet. Sometimes inventory goes up in value. Do accountant's ever adjust the value of inventory upwards? What are the general guidelines that accountant's follow in recording inventory value?

Answers

Answer:

Accountants do not adjust the value of inventory upwards.  The general guidelines in recording inventory value are to recognize the ending inventory value at the lower of cost or market value and to ensure that transactions are recorded in accordance with the conservatism principle of generally accepted accounting principles.

Explanation:

The conservatism principle requires that all probable losses are recognized as soon as they can be reasonably estimated, while gains should be recognized only when they are fully realized.  The lower of cost or market value (LCM) method states that inventory should be recorded at the lower of either the historical cost or the market value.  The LCM is in line with the conservatism principle.

Answer:

A. Direct materials-Materials requisition slips

Direct labor-Time tickets

Manufacturing overhead- Predetermined overhead rate

B. 125%

C. Total cost $7,760

Unit cost $3.104

Explanation:

1. Based on the information given the source documents for direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead costs assigned to this job are :

Direct materials-Materials requisition slips

Direct labor-Time tickets

Manufacturing overhead- Predetermined overhead rate

2. Calculation to determine the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate

Predetermined overhead rate=$550/$440*100

Predetermined overhead rate=125%

Therefore the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate is 125%

3. Calculation to determine the total cost and the unit cost of the completed job

TOTAL COST

Direct Material $4, 700

($700 + $900 + $1,600 + $1,500)

Add Direct Labor $1,360

($440 + $380 + $540)

Add Manufacturing Overhead $1,700

($550 + $475 + $675)

Total Cost $7,760

UNIT COST

Unit cost= $7,760/ 2,500

Unit cost=$3.104

Therefore the total cost is $7,760 and the unit cost of the completed job is $3.104

You want to evaluate three mutual funds. The risk-free return during the sample period is The average returns, standard deviations, and betas for the three funds are given below. 5%. as are the data for the S&P 500 Index.

Fund Avg Std Dev Beta
A 13.6% 40% 1.1
B 13.1% 25% 1.0
C 12.4% 30% 1.3
S&P 500 12.0% 15% 1.0

You want to evaluate the three mutual funds using the Sharpe ratio for performance evaluation. The fund with the highest Sharpe ratio of performance is.

a. fund A
b. fund B
c. fund C
d. The answer cannot be determined from the information given.

Answers

Answer:

b. fund B

Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

For fund A

= (Return - risk free rate) ÷ (standard deviation)

= (13.6% - 6%) ÷ 40%

= 7.6% ÷ 40%

= 0.19

For fund B

= Return - risk free rate ÷  standard deviation

= 13.1% - 6% ÷  25%

= 7.1% ÷  25%

= 0.284

For  fund C = Return - Risk free rate ÷  standard deviation

= 12.4% - 6% ÷  30%

= 6.4% ÷  30%

= 0.213

So here the highest sharpe ratio is of fund B
