Answer: c. Complex Needs Analysis
Explanation:
The Complex needs analysis method is the most probable assessment method used by Christie on account of her dependents. Christie has a child who has Autism which means that she has to factor in the various costs associated with with managing the condition as the child grows.
These are complex needs which is why the complex needs approach is best. The other approaches do not take into account (at least not adequately), the needs of the child so aren't the best fit.
For Christie who calculates her life insurance needs taking into account her autistic child and her stay-at-home father, the method that Christie most likely used to arrive at her calculation is the Complex Needs Analysis.
What is Complex Needs Analysis?Complex Needs Analysis is a way of calculating how much insurance a person needs based on his or her present condition.
It takes into consideration factors like the future cost of education, and inheritance to be bequeathed on offsprings.
In Christie's case, factors like her autistic child and her needs were put into consideration. Therefore, Christie most likely used the Complex Needs Analysis methods.
Other methods that can be used to calculate insurance needs are Human Life Value and Income Multiple methods.

Amigo Software, Inc., has total assets of $800,000, current liabilities of $150,000, and long-term liabilities of $120,000. There is $65,000 in preferred stock outstanding. Thirty thousand shares of common stock have been issued.
Required:
a. Compute book value (net worth) per share.
b. If there is $48,000 in earnings available to common stockholders and the firm’s stock has a P/E of 20 times earnings per share, what is the current price of the stock?
c. What is the ratio of market value per share to book value per share? (Round to two places to the right of the decimal point.)
Answer and Explanation:
a. The book value per share is
But before that the net worth is
= Total assets - current liabilities - long term liabilities - preferred stock
= $800,000 - $150,000 - $120,000 - $65,000
= $465,000
Now the book value per share is
= $465,000 ÷ 30,000 shares
= $15.50
b. The current price of the stock is
= $48,000 ÷ 30,000
= $1.60
Now the market value is
= $1.60 × 20
= $32
c. The ratio of market value per share to book value per share is
= $32 ÷ $15.50
= 2.06

Increases natural rate of unemployment reducing workers' collective bargaining rights extra financial benefits for the unemployed a large number of young people entering the labor force an increase in union membership Decreases natural rate of unemployment
Answer:
increases natural rate of unemployment
extra financial benefits for the unemployed
a large number of young people entering the labor force
an increase in union membership
Decreases natural rate of unemployment
reducing workers' collective bargaining rights
Explanation:
natural rate of unemployment is unemployment that exists when there is only structural and frictional unemployment in an economy
structural unemployment is an unemployment that occurs as a result of changes in the economy. These changes can be as a result of changes in technology, polices or competition . Structural unemployment tends to be permanent.
Frictional unemployment . the period of time a person is unemployed from the period he leaves his current job and the time he gets another job. Eg. when a real estate agent who leaves a job in Texas and searches for a similar, higher-paying job in California.
If the unemployed are given extra benefits, there would be less incentive to find a job, thus unemployment would increase
An increase in union membership increases bargaining power of employees. this can lead to increase in wages. increase in wages reduces demand for labour and this increases unemployment. reducing collective bargaining right has the opposite effect on unemployment
a large number of people entering the labour force increases frictional unemployment
Assume that a company is financed 75% with equity and 25% with debt. A decrease in the corporate tax rate of the firm will cause its weighted average cost of capital (WACC) to:_____.
1. Rise.
2. Fall.
3. Stay constant
4. More information is needed
Answer:1. Rise.
Explanation:
The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is an evaluation of a firm's cost of capital in which every category of capital is proportionately weighted.
Weighted average cost of capital is computed as:
WACC =( Weightage of Equity x Cost of Equity )+ Weightage of Debt x Cost of Debt x(1- Tax Rate )
A decrease in the corporate tax rate of the firm will cause its weighted average cost of capital (WACC) to rise due to an increase in the cost of debt.
hence, the correct option is 1. Rise.

Dreary Credit Agency processes credit applications. The labor standard at Dreary is $15 per hour, 8 hours per day (per employee). During the last pay period (10 business days), Dreary's 25 credit agents worked 1,920 hours and processed 2,500 applications. The total labor cost for the agents during this period was $29,184. What was Dreary's direct labor efficiency variance for this last pay period
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Given the above, we will calculate first the standard hours allowed for actual work using the formula below
Standard hours allowed for actual work
= Total number of applications × Number of standard
= 2.500 × 8 hours × 10
= 2,000 hours
Therefore, the labor efficiency variance
= (Actual hours worked - Standard hours allowed for actual work) × Standard rate
= (1,920 - 2,000 ) × $15
= -$1,200
The labor efficiency variance is $1,200 favorable

Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct materials 2 grams $7.00 per gram
The company produced 4,600 units in January using 10,100 grams of direct material.
To calculate the direct material quantity variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
Direct material quantity variance= (2*4,600 - 10,100)*7
Direct material quantity variance= $6,300 unfavorable
What is least likely and most likely to do ?
Answer:
Most Likely to do:
" Try to learn why the customer likes the product, and suggest a similar but less expensive alternative."
This will help you to gain the customer's trust, and will most likely take or buy the alternative if he is convinced of getting the same functionality.
Least Likely to do:
"Offer to check with your Store Manager to see if anything can be done. Ask your Manager how to handle the situation."
This will probably not yield a positive result because the price would not likely be changed, and it may put you in a bad light under your Manager, as he will believe you can't think on your feet or improvise on your own.

Its cash expenses will be $1.0 million while depreciation expense will be $300,000. What is the expected free cash flow from taking the project if the marginal tax rate for the firm is 25 percent
Answer:
$1,425,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the expected free cash flow
Expected revenue$2,800,000
[(40%*$4 million)+(60%*$2 million)]
Less Cash Expenses $1,000,000
Less Depreciation Expense $300,000
EBIT$1,500,000
($2,800,000-$1,000,000-$300,000)
Tax $375,000
(25%*$1,500,000)
Net Income $1,125,000
($1,500,000-$375,000)
Add Depreciation Expense $300,000
Free Cash Flow $1,425,000
($1,125,000+$300,000)
Therefore the expected free cash flow is $1,425,000

Alpha Industries is considering a project with an initial cost of $9.7 million. The project will produce cash inflows of $1.67 million per year for 9 years. The project has the same risk as the firm. The firm has a pretax cost of debt of 6.12 percent and a cost of equity of 11.61 percent. The debt–equity ratio is .77 and the tax rate is 40 percent. What is the net present value of the project?
Answer:
$660,000
Explanation:
WACC = [wD * kD * (1 - t)] + [wE * kE]
WACC = [(0.77 / 1.77)*6.12%* (1 - 0.40)] + [(1 / 1.77)*11.61%]
WACC = 1.60% + 6.56%
WACC = 8.16%
Present value of annuity = Annuity*[1-(1+interest rate)^-time period]/rate
Present value of annuity = $1.67*[1-(1.08156745763)^-9]/0.0816
Present value of annuity = $1.67*6.206374532
Present value of annuity = $10.36 million
NPV = Present value of inflows - Present value of outflows
NPV = $10.36 million - $9.7 million
NPV = $660,000
Whitmer Inc. sells to customers all over the U.S., and all receipts come in to its headquarters in New York City. The firm's average accounts receivable balance is $2.5 million, and they are financed by a bank loan at an 11% annual interest rate. The firm is considering setting up a regional lockbox system to speed up collections, and it believes this would reduce receivables by 20%. If the annual cost of the system is $15,000, what pre-tax net annual savings would be realized
Answer:
$40,000
Explanation:
Average accounts receivables = $2,500,000. Loan amount is also $2,500,000.
Interest rate is 11%. So, interest paid = $2,500,000*0.11 = $275,000
If the system reduces receivables by 20%,then current receivables = $2,500,000*0.8 = $2,000,000. So, loan amount = $2,000,000
Interest payable = $2,000,000*0.11 = $220,000
Cost of system = $15,000
Net annual savings = Interest payable without system - Interest payable after system installed - Cost of system
Net annual savings = $275,000 - $220,000 - $15,000
Net annual savings = $40,000

Sheffield Corp. developed the following data for the current year: Beginning work in process inventory $ 216000 Direct materials used 208000 Actual overhead 176000 Overhead applied 184000 Cost of goods manufactured 990000 Total manufacturing costs 926000 How much is Sheffield Corp.'s direct labor cost for the year?
Answer:
$534,000
Explanation:
Given that;
Direct materials used = $208,000
Overhead applied = $184,000
Total manufacturing costs = $926,000
We know that the total manufacturing cost is calculated as seen below.
Total manufacturing cost
= Direct materials used + Direct labor + Allocated overhead
$926,000 = $208,000 + Direct labor + $184,000
Direct labor = $926,000 - $208,000 - $184,000
Direct labor = $534,000
Therefore, Sheffield Corp's direct labor cost for the year is $534,000
Simone is the only provider of pumpkins for three cities. Because she has her own large garden, the marginal cost to produce an additional pumpkin is $0. As she knows, firms discriminate to improve profits. How much would her she earn in additional profit if she practiced price discrimination across cities, charging a different price in each city versus charging everyone a single price
Answer: hi your question has some missing data attached below is the missing table
answer : $9
Explanation:
If Simone practices price discriminations across cities i.e. charging different prices across city instead of charging a single price
To determine the additional profit we will apply the formula below
Profit made from charging different prices - profit made from charging a single price
= ( ( $11 * 4) + ( $9 * 4 ) + ( $10 * 5) ) - ( $11 * 11 units )
= $130 - $121
= $9
Note : For a single pricing system Simone will sell only 11 units at a unit price of $11
while for different pricing system Simone will sell 4 units in city A at$11 , 4 units in City B at $9 , 5 units in city C at $10

Torino Company has 1,500 shares of $10 par value, 7.0% cumulative and nonparticipating preferred stock and 15,000 shares of $10 par value common stock outstanding. The company paid total cash dividends of $500 in its first year of operation. The cash dividend that must be paid to preferred stockholders in the second year before any dividend is paid to common stockholders is:________.
a. $1,600.
b. $550.
c. $1,050.
d. $2,100.
e. $500.
Answer:
a. $1,600.
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of the dividend that should be paid to the preference shareholder in the second year is shown below:
Annual dividend is
= 1,500 shares × 7% × $10
= $1,050
Now the dividend that should be paid to the next year
= $1,050 + $1,050 - $500
= $1,600
Hence, the mount of the dividend that should be paid to the preference shareholder in the second year is $1,600
The market consensus is that Analog Electronic Corporation has an ROE of 9% and a beta of 1.70. It plans to maintain indefinitely its traditional plowback ratio of 2/3. This year's earnings were $3.6 per share. The annual dividend was just paid. The consensus estimate of the coming year's market return is 15%, and T-bills currently offer a 5% return.
Required:
a. Find the price at which Analog stock should sell.
b. Calculate the P/E ratio.
c. Calculate the present value of growth opportunities.
d. Suppose your research convinces you Analog will announce momentarily that it will immediately reduce its plowback ratio to 1/3. Find the intrinsic value of the stock.
Answer:
a $7.95
b. $2.21
c $16.36
d, $13.01
Explanation:
according to the constant dividend growth model
price = [d0 (1+g)] / (r - g)
d0 = recently paid dividend
Dividend = payout ratio x earnings
payout ratio = 1 - plowback rate
1 - 2/3 = 1/3
1/3 x 3.6 = $1.2
r = cost of equity
According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)
5% + 1.7(15 - 5) = 22%
g = growth rate
g = plowback rate x ROE
2/3 X 9 = 6%
1. [1.2 x 1.06] / (0.22 - 0.06) = 1.272/ 0.16 = $7.95
2.
The price to earning ratio is a financial metric used to value a company. it compares the price of a stock to the earnings of the stock. the lower the metric is, the higher the valuation of the firm
price to earning ratio = market value per share / earnings
$7.95 / $3.6 = $2.21
c. present value of growth opportunities = earnings / cost of equity
3.6 / 0.22 = $16.36
d.
price = [d0 (1+g)] / (r - g)
d0 = recently paid dividend
Dividend = payout ratio x earnings
payout ratio = 1 - plowback rate
1 - 1/3 = 2/3
2/3 x 3.6 = $2.40
r = cost of equity = 22%
g = plowback rate x ROE
1/3 X 9 = 3%
[2.4 x 1.03] / (0.22 - 0.03) = 2.472/ 0.19 = $13.01

Assume that EBIT is $3.1 million. Compute the EPS for both Plan I and Plan II. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, 32.16.) EPS Plan I $ Plan II $ c. What is the break-even EBIT
Solution :
Calculation of the [tex]$\text{EPS}$[/tex] for both [tex]$\text{plan I}$[/tex] and [tex]$\text{plan II}$[/tex] where EBIT is 2.6 million.
[tex]$\text{plan I}$[/tex] [tex]$\text{plan II}$[/tex]
EBIT $ 2.6 million $ 2.6 million
Less : Interest $ 1.1 million
Less
PAT $ 2.6 million $ 1.5 million
Earnings available $ 2.6 million $ 1.5 million
for share holder
No. of shares 765,000 515,00
[tex]$\text{EPS}$[/tex] = earnings available $ 3.40 $ 2.9
for share holder/no. of
shares
Hence [tex]$\text{EPS}$[/tex] under the [tex]$\text{plan I}$[/tex] is $ 3.40 and [tex]$\text{plan II}$[/tex] is $ 2.91
Calculating the [tex]$\text{EPS}$[/tex] for both plan I and [tex]$\text{plan II}$[/tex] where EBIT is $ 3.1 million
[tex]$\text{plan I}$[/tex] [tex]$\text{plan II}$[/tex]
EBIT $ 3.1 million $ 3.1 million
Less : Interest $ 1.1 million
Less
PAT $ 3.1 million $ 2.0 million
Earnings available $3.1 million $ 2.0 million
for share holder
No. of shares 765,000 515,00
[tex]$\text{EPS}$[/tex] = earnings available $ 4.05 $ 3.88
for share holder/no. of
shares
Hence, [tex]$\text{EPS}$[/tex] under the [tex]$\text{plan I}$[/tex] is [tex]$\$4.05$[/tex] and [tex]$\text{plan II}$[/tex] is [tex]$\$ 3.88$[/tex]
Calculating the breakeven EBIT
When [tex]$\text{accessing}$[/tex] the relative effectiveness leverage versus equity financing companies look for the level of the EBIT where [tex]$\text{EPS}$[/tex] remains unaffected, called the EBIT-EPS breakeven point .
To calculate the EBIT-EPS breakeven point, rearranging the [tex]$\text{EPS}$[/tex] formula:
[tex]$\text{EBIT}=\text{(EPS }\times \text{no. of common shares outstanding )}+\frac{\text{preferred share dividends}}{1-\text{tax rate}}+ \text {debt interest}$[/tex]
[tex]$=(\$4.05 \times 515,000)+0+\$1,100,000 = \$3,185,750$[/tex]
Therefore, the break even EBIT is $ 3,185,750
Rationale of the cost replacement approach is: an informed investor would not pay more for real estate than what it would cost to buy the land and build the structure an informed investor would pay for a property based on its ability to produce cash flow an informed buyer of real estate would not pay more for a property than what other investors have recently paid for comparable properties. None of the above
Answer:
an informed buyer of real estate would not pay more for a property than what other investors have recently paid for comparable properties
Explanation:
The replacement cost is the cost when the improvement represent the cost to replace one improvement with another containing the similar utility
So here the cost replacement approach would be informed buyer of the real estate that should not pay more as compared with the other investor who currently paid for the properties that are comparable with each other
Therefore the above represent the answer
