Answer:
a. Project's net present value is $1,015,163.09
b. Simple rate of return is 15%
c. Yes. The reason is that the project has a positive net present value of $1,015,163.09.
d. No. The reason is that the simple rate of return of 15% obtained in part b is lower the division’s return on investment (ROI), which has been above 20% each of the last three years.
Explanation:
a. Compute the project's net present value.
To compute this, we first calculate the annual cash inflow as follows:
Annual cash inflow = Net operating income + Depreciation = $452,000 + $828,000 = $1,,280,000
Now, the project's net present value can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present of an ordinary annuity as follows:
PV = P * [{1 - [1 / (1 + r)]^n} / r] …………………………………. (1)
Where;
PV = Present value of the annual cash flow = ?
P = Annual cash inflow = $1,280,000
r = Discount rate = 17%, or 0.17
n = Equipment useful years = 5
Substitute the values into equation (1) to have:
PV = $1,280,000 * [{1 - [1 / (1 + 0.17)]^5} / 0.17]
PV = $4,095,163.09
Project's net present value = PV - Project's initial investment = $4,095,163.09 - $3,080,000 = $1,015,163.09
b. Compute the project's simple rate of return
This can be computed as follows:
Simple rate of return = Net operating income / Initial investment = $452,000 / $3,080,000 = 0.15, or 15%
c. Would the company want Derrick to pursue this investment opportunity?
Yes. The reason is that the project has a positive net present value of $1,015,163.09.
Note that had it been the net present value of the project was negative, the company would not want to Derrick to pursue this investment opportunity since the decision of the company is based on whether the project's NPV is positive or negative.
d. Would Derrick be inclined to pursue this investment opportunity?
No. The reason is that the simple rate of return of 15% obtained in part b is lower the division’s return on investment (ROI), which has been above 20% each of the last three years.
Pursuing this investment opportunity will therefore reduce the Overall ROI of the division and Derrick will not get annual pay raises if this happens.
On January 1, 2018, Frontier World issues $40.7 million of 9% bonds, due in 20 years, with interest payable semiannually on June 30 and December 31 each year. The proceeds will be used to build a new ride that combines a roller coaster, a water ride, a dark tunnel, and the great smell of outdoor barbeque, all in one ride. rev: 11_03_2016_QC_CS-68413 Required: 1-a. If the market rate is 8%, calculate the issue price. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, and PVA of $1)
Answer:
$44,728,243.62
Explanation:
face value $40,700,000
coupon rate 9%, semiannual 4.5%
maturity 20 years x 2 = 40 periods
market interest rate 8%
issue price?
present value of face value = $40,700,000 / (1 + 4%)⁴⁰ = $8,477,364.12
present value of coupon payments = $1,831,500 x 19.793 (PV annuity factor, 4%, 40 periods) = $36,250,879.50
market price = $8,477,364.12 + $36,250,879.50 = $44,728,243.62

One Step, Inc., is trying to determine its cost of debt. The firm has a debt issue outstanding with 27 years to maturity that is quoted at 105 percent of face value. The issue makes semiannual payments and has a coupon rate of 4 percent.
Requried:
a. What is the company's pretax cost of debt?
b. If the tax rate is 23 percent, what is the aftertax cost of debt?
Answer:
Before tax cost of debt=3.72%
After-tax cost of debt =2.87 %
Explanation:
The yield to maturity to Maturity van be worked out using the formula below:
YM =( C + F-P/n) ÷ ( 1/2× (F+P))
C- annual coupon,
F- face value ,
P- current price,
n- number of years to maturity
YM - Yield to maturity
DATA
C- 4%× 100 = 4, P- 105, F- 100
AYM = 4 + (100-105)/27 ÷ 1/2× (100+105)
=0.0372 × 100= 3.72%
Yield to maturity =3.72%
Before tax cost of debt = Yield to maturity
Before tax cost of debt=3.72%
After tax cost of debt =Before tax cost of debt × (1-T)
Before tax cost of debt = 3.72%
Tax rate = 23%
After-tax cost of debt = 3.72%× (1-0.23) =2.87 %
After-tax cost of debt =2.87 %

How would you make a convincing case that open trade in goods and services as well as free flow of foreign direct investment will enhance the well-being of (a) consumers, (b) pro-ducers, and (c) the government of countries? Give specific examples to prove your position.
Answer:
(a) consumers
Consumers are those who benefit the most from open trade and foreign direct investment. This is because these two economic policies increase the producion and delivery of goods and services, making them cheaper.
(b) producers
While some producers would be affected by open trade, most producers would benefit. Firms are allowed to specialize in producing those goods and services for which they have a competitive advantage, and they can also profit from increased foreign investment.
(c) the government of countries
Governments also benefit from these economic policies. They higher well-being of society means more government credibility, and the higher economic growth means more government revenue in the form of taxes.
The case that open trade in goods and services, as well as free flow of foreign direct investment, should be described below:

2. At an oral auction for used car, half of all bidders have a value of $1,500 and half have a value of $1,900. What is the expected winning bid if there are three bidders
Answer: $1,700
Explanation:
The expected winning bid is the weighted average of the 2 different bids.
Half of the bids are for $1,500 so weight of $1,500 is 0.5.
Half of the bids are for $1,900 so weight of $1,900 is 0.5.
Expected Winning bid = (1,500 * 0.5) + ( 1,900 * 0.5)
= 750 + 950
= $1,700

Oil Dawg, an oil tanker company, shipped oil to coasts all over the US. During many deliveries, the crew was dumping waste into the ocean. To conceal this, the crew falsified entries into the record book and lied to the Coast Guard about waste disposal. Top executives in the company were unaware this was happening. A jury convicted Oil Dawg of conspiracy, pollution, and obstruction of justice and the company was fined $4.9 Million. Oil Dawg appealed. Should Oil Dawg be found criminally liable for the illegal actions of its lower-level employees under the doctrine of respondeat superior? Why or Why not?
Answer:
The doctrine of respondeat superior is generally applied to torts and is used by civil courts, but can also include criminal activities. In this case, the main issue is the fine imposed on Oil Dawg, so yes, this doctrine applies.
Respondeat superior basically makes the principal (the employer in this case) legally responsible for unlawful or negligent acts committed by its agents (employees in this case). This doctrine applies as long as the illegal acts were committed within the scope of the normal employment, e.g. crashing a van while making a delivery. In this case, the illegal polluting was carried out while transporting oil to the US.
The only possible defense that Oil Dawg might have is that the people that committed the illegal polluting were independent contractors and they weren't actual employees of the company. But according to the text given, that is not the case.
This doesn't mean that only the employer will be go to trial, the employees that committed the illegal polluting will also go to trial since they are both liable, and maybe face the same or even different charges.

Allied Merchandisers was organized on May 1. Macy Co. is a major customer (buyer) of Allied (seller) products.
May 3 Allied made its first and only purchase of inventory for the period on May 3 for 2,000 units at a price of $10 cash per unit (for a total cost of $20,000).
5 Allied sold 1,500 of the units in inventory for $14 per unit (invoice total: $21,000) to Macy Co. under credit terms 2/10, n/60. The goods cost Allied $15,000.
7 Macy returns 125 units because they did not fit the customer’s needs (invoice amount: $1,750). Allied restores the units, which cost $1,250, to its inventory.
8 Macy discovers that 200 units are scuffed but are still of use and, therefore, keeps the units. Allied sends Macy a credit memorandum for $300 toward the original invoice amount to compensate for the damage.

Allied receives payment from Macy for the amount owed on the May 5 purchase; payment is net of returns, allowances, and any cash discount.

In order to document a business transaction in the accounting records of the company, a journal entry is employed. A journal entry is often made in the general ledger, but it can also be made in a subsidiary ledger and subsequently rolled forward into the general ledger after being summarised.

After then, the general ledger is utilized to produce the company's financial statements. The idea behind a journal entry is to use double-entry accounting, which requires that every company transaction be recorded at least twice.
For instance, when you make a cash sale, the revenue account and the cash account are both increased. Alternatively, if you purchase items on credit, this raises both the accounts payable and inventory accounts.

Consider a situation where a firm owned by you is competing against an identical rival firm. You are able to choose how much of your good (quantity) to supply to the market. You are given the option to set your quantity first, wait and let your rival set their quantity, or have both you and your rival set their quantities at the same time. What should you do
Available Options Are:
A. Set your quantity first.
B. Set your quantity second.
C. Set your quantity at the same time.
D. It doesn't matter.
Answer:
Option A. Set your quantity first.
Explanation:
The Cournot Equilibrium says that the decisions are made simultaneously and this simultaneous decision is that each firm will choose its own quantity, given what quantity of output its rival has set. Every firm will be producing a quantity that maximizes its profits and this approach will lower the profits because of Cournot Equilibrium.
The firm that sets its quantity first is at better position because the other firms might think about the worse market condition taking Cournot effect into account.
The optimal choice would be to set our quantity first, hence the option A is the right option.
Suppose that you have an old car that is a real gas guzzler. It is 10 years old and could be sold to a local dealer for $ cash. The annual maintenance costs will average $ per year into the foreseeable future, and the car averages only miles per gallon. Gasoline costs $ per gallon, and you drive miles per year. You now have an opportunity to replace the old car with a better one that costs $. If you buy it, you will pay cash. Because of a 2-year warranty, the maintenance costs are expected to be negligible. This car averages miles per gallon. Should you keep the old car or replace it? Utilize a 2-year comparison period and assume that the new car can be sold for $ at the end of year 2. Assume that the salvage value of the old car at the end of year 2 will be $0. Ignore the effect of income taxes and let your MARR be %.
Answer:
you should replace the old car with a newer and more efficient one
Explanation:
all the numbers are missing, so I looked them up:
current sale value of old car $400
maintenance costs per year $800
gasoline expense per year = $3.50 x 1/10 x 15,000 = $5,250
resale value in 2 years = $0
cost of replacing old car = $8,000
maintenance costs per year $0
gasoline expense per year = $3.50 x 1/30 x 15,000 = $1,750
resale value in 2 years = $5,000
MARR = 15%
if you keep the old car, your net cash flows will be:
Year 1 = -$6,050
Year 2 = -$6,050
if you change your car, your net cash flows will be:
Year 0 = -$8,000 + $400 = -$7,600
Year 1 = -$1,750
Year 2 = $3,250
keeping the old car results in a NPV = -$6,050/1.15 - $6,050/1.15² = -$5,260.87 - $4,574.67 = -$9,835.54
changing for a new car results in a NPV = -$7,600 -$1,750/1.15 + $3,250/1.15² = -$7,600 -$1,521.74 + $2,457.47 = -$6,664.27
since both options result in negative cash flows, we must select the option that results in a smaller loss

To avoid having a voidable contract, all 'time is of the essence' deadlines set by the contract must be met:________
a. within 24 hours of the stated deadline.
b. within 48 hours of the stated deadline.
Answer:
None of the choices are needed
Explanation:
As we know that
The contract is an agreement between two parties who are eligible and enforceable by law
The voidable contract is an agreement that is not unenforceable by law due to various reasons like - party failure to complete the contract on time, fraud, misrepresentation, etc
So in the case of the voidable contract, no grace period is applicable neither 24 hours nor 48 hours as if there is a deadline so the same should be considered

Company X, which is a chemical manufacturer, uses crude oil and buys it in the spot market on a monthly schedule. A crude oil swap is quoted by the dealer at $25. Which of the following statements is correct?a. The company should sell the swap to hedgeb. In a month when the spot price of oil is above $25, the company will pay the difference to the counter partyc. In a month when the spot price is below $25, the company will pay the difference to the counter party
Answer:
c. In a month when the spot price is below $25, the company will pay the difference to the counter party
Explanation:
Since Company X uses crude oil, the company buys the swap to hedge in the swap market, so option A is not appropriate because it buys the swap, which pays the counterparty when the spot price falls below $ 25. so correct option is c. In a month when the spot price is below $25, the company will pay the difference to the counter partyIn October, Vaughn Company reports 21,200 actual direct labor hours, and it incurs $118,830 of manufacturing overhead costs. Standard hours allowed for the work done is 23,300 hours. The predetermined overhead rate is $4.95 per direct labor hour. Compute the total overhead variance.
Answer:
The answer is $3,495F
Explanation:
The formula for computing total overhead variance is:
Actual overhead - overhead applied.
Overhead applied = overhead rate x standard hours allowed for the workdone.
$4.95 x 23,300 hours
=$115,335
Actual overhead is $118,830
Therefore, we have:
$118,830 - $115,335
= $3,495F
The F in the answer means favourable. The actual overhead incurred is greater than the overhead absorbed.

Ultimate Sportswear has $150,000 of 8% non-cumulative, non-participating, preferred stock outstanding. Ultimate Sportswear also has $550,000 of common stock outstanding. In the company's first year of operation, no dividends were paid. During the second year, the company paid cash dividends of $35,000. This dividend should be distributed as follows:
a. $8,750 preferred: $26,250 common.
b. $0 preferred: $35,000 common.
c. $12.000 preferred: $23.000 common.
d. $19.000 preferred: $16.000 common
e. $17,500 preferred; $17,500 соmmоn.
Answer:
c. $12,000 preferred: $23,000 common
Explanation:
Calculation of how the Dividend should be distributed
First step is to calculate for preferred stock outstanding
Preferred stock outstanding=$150,000 * 8% non-cumulative
Preferred stock outstanding=$12,000
Second step is to calculate for common stock outstanding
Using this formula
Common stock outstanding = Cash Dividend-Preferred stock outstanding
Let plug in the formula
Common stock outstanding=$35,000-$12,000
Common stock outstanding=$23,000
Therefore Preferred stock outstanding will be $12,000 while Common stock outstanding will be $23,000
You have invested 20 percent of your portfolio in Homer, Inc., 40 percent in Marge Co., and 20 percent in Bart Resources. What is the expected return of your portfolio if Homer, Marge, and Bart have expected returns of 2 percent, 18 percent, and 3 percent, respectively?
Answer:
Expected return = 8.2%
Explanation:
A portfolio is a collection of assets/ investment. The return on a portfolio is the weighted average of all the return of the individual assets weighted according to the percentage of total funds allocated to each assets.
Expected return on portfolio:
E(R) =( Wa*Ra) + (Wb*Rb) + (Wc*Rc) + Wn*Rn
W= Weight i.e proportion of fund invested in each asset class
Wa = 20%, Wb- 40%, Wc- 20%
Ra-2%, Rb-18%, Rc- 3%
E(R) = (0.2 *2%) + (0.4× 18%) + (0.2*3%) = 8.2%
Expected return = 8.2%
An organizational chart of a company shows vice presidents with responsibility for key areas such as design, manufacturing, sales, marketing, and after-sales support. This reflects a _______ structure.
Answer: Functional
Explanation: The functional structure of an organisational chart places people with similar skills who perform similar activities in a group under a common manager who answers to an executive a level up in the hierarchy who may oversee multiple departments. Therefore, an organizational chart of a company showing vice presidents with responsibility for key areas such as design, manufacturing, sales, marketing, and after-sales support would reflect a functional structure.
An advantage of the functional structure is that employees are allowed to focus their collective energies on executing their roles as a department but sometimes they might develop tunnel vision (seeing the company solely through the lens of the employee’s job function) and often at times there is a lack of inter-departmental communication.
Identify which of the factors below are better short-range predictors and which are better long-range predictors of movements in foreign exchange rates.a. Relative monetary growthb. Relative inflation ratesc. Nominal interest rate differentialsd. Psychological effectse. Investor expectationsf. Bandwagon effects
Answer:
Short range predictors:
c. Nominal interest rate differential
d. Psychological effects
e. Investor expectations
f. Bandwagon effect
Long range predictors:
a. Relative monetary growth
b. Relative inflation rates
Explanation:
Nominal rate, the real rate, and inflation. long term predictors of an economic theory in which a relationship between inflation, nominal interest rate and real interest rate is identified. It defines that real interest rate is equal to inflation minus nominal interest rate.
Bandwagon effect is a short range predictor because it is effect of uptake when people follow others. They take decisions what other do and its their belief that other people have taken the right decision so we too. This is just a short term hop based on beliefs regardless of any underlying evidence.
Jerry, a partner with 30 percent capital and profits interest, received his Schedule K-1 from Plush Pillows, LP. At the beginning of the year, Jerry's tax basis in his partnership interest was $44,000. His current-year Schedule K-1 reported an ordinary loss of $9,000, long-term capital gain of $4,600, qualified dividends of $3,600, $2,100 of non-deductible expenses, a $26,000 cash contribution, and a reduction of $5,600 in his share of partnership debt. What is Jerry's adjusted basis in his partnership interest (outside basis) at the end of the year
Answer: $61,500
Explanation:
Jerry's adjusted basis in his partnership interest at the end of the year is determined by adding his cash contributions, long-term capital gain, and qualified dividends to the original tax basis.
There will also be deductions of the non-deductible expenses, ordinary loss and his share of the reduction in partnership debt.
Jerry's adjusted basis at the end of the year = ( 44,000 + 26,000 + 3,600 4,600) - ( 2,100 + 9,000 + 5,600)
= 78,200 - 16,700
= $61,500
