Douglas County sought bids for a construction project. Robert Taggart wanted to submit a bid but knew the project needed rock. He talked with some owners of a rock source and was told the rock was for sale but the price could not be determined until the other owner was consulted. Taggart prepared an incomplete bid, told his bookkeeper to get the rock price and complete the bid. Taggart left on vacation. The bookkeeper did so and submitted the bid. The bids were opened. Taggart’s bid was the lowest, but it was learned later that day that the rock was longer for sale. The next day the bookkeeper delivered a written bid withdrawal to the county. The county subsequently awarded the contract to Taggart.

Required:
Is there a contract? If so, what aspect of contract law might apply here? If not, why?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

No, there is no contract between the two parties because of withdrawal of offer (Revocation) before the acceptance of the other party.

Explanation:

When one party offers another party and after some time the offer maker withdraws the offer by communicating that they had revoked then the offer is no more available to the other party and is often termed as Revocation. So when the offer maker revokes before the acceptance of the offer by the other party then their is no offer at consideration to the other party, which means if there is no offer then their can not be an acceptance of an offer and of course when there is no acceptance then there is no contract.

The communication of revocation was held before the acceptance of the offer of the other party which agains says that the contract was not actually formed.

Consider the following case of Free Spirit Industries Inc :

Suppose Free Spirit Industries Inc. is considering a project that will require $400,000 in assets:

• The company is small, so it is exempt from the interest deduction limitation under the new tax law.
• The project is expected to produce earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of $45,000.
• Common equity outstanding will be 10,000 shares.
• The company incurs a tax rate of 25%."

If the project is financed using 100% equity capital, then Free Spirit Industries Inc.'s return on equity (ROE) on the project will be____________. In addition, Free Spirit's earnings per share (EPs) will be____________

Alternatively, Free Spirit Industries Inc.'s CFO is also considering financing the project with 50% debt and 50% equity capital. The interest rate on the company's debt will be 12%. Because the company will finance only 50% of the project with equity, it will have only 12, 500 shares outstanding. Free Spirit Industries Inc.'s ROE and the company's EPS will be_____________ if management decides to finance the project with 50% debt and 50% equity.

Typically, the use of financial average will make the probability distribution of ROIC:__________

Answers

Answer:

Return on equity (ROE) on the project will be 8.43%. In addition, Free Spirit's earnings per share (EPs) will be $3.375 per share

ROE and the company's EPS will be 7.875% if management decides to finance the project with 50% debt and 50% equity.

The use of financial average will make the probability distribution of ROIC $4.5

Explanation:

Calculation of When the company financed with 100% equity

Using this formula

ROE = (EBIT – Interest)(1-Tax Rate)/Equity

Let plug in the formula

When financed with 100% equity,

ROE = 45,000(1-25%)/400,000

ROE=45,000(0.75)/400,000

ROE=33,750/400,000

ROE=8.43

Calculation for the Free Spirit's earnings per share (EPs)

EPS = (45,000)(1-25%)/10,000

EPS=45,000*0.75/10,000

EPS=33,750/10,000

= $3.375 per share

Calculation of When the company financed with 50% Debt

50%×400,000=200,00

ROE = (45,000 – 200,000*12%)(1-25%)/200,000

ROE=21,000×0.75/200,000

ROE=15,750/200,000

ROE=

= 7.875%

EPS = Net Income/Outstanding shares

EPS=45,000/10,000

EPS.=4.5 per share

Hence,7.875 % and $4.5 respectively

On January 1, a company has 700,000 shares of issued and outstanding common stock. On March 1, the company repurchases 60,000 shares. On June 1, it effects a 2-for-1 stock split. On November 1, it issues 240,000 shares. The company has a net income for the year of $2,720,000.

Required:
What is the basic earnings per share of common stock for the year (rounded to the nearest cent)?

Answers

Answer:

Basic EPS = 1.8

Explanation:

March 1 outstanding shares = 700,000 - 60,000= 640,000

June 1 outstanding shares = 640,000 × 2 = 1,280,000

November 1 outstanding shares = 1,280,000  + 240,000 =1,520,000

Net income = $2,720,000.

Basic earnings per shares (EPS) =

income available to ordinary shareholders/Number of shares outstanding

=$2,720,000/1,520,000 units = 1.789

Basic EPS = 1.8

P/E ratio = 41.43

b. Compute earnings per share and the P/E ratio for 20X2.

EPS = $2.10 per stock

P/E ratio = 39.52

Explanation:

after taxes net income $350,000 in 20x1

200,000 outstanding common stocks

stock price $72.50

after taxes net income $420,000 in 20x2

200,000 outstanding common stocks

stock price $83.00

EPS = net income / outstanding stocks

20x1 = $350,000 / 200,000 = $1.75 per stock

20x2 = $420,000 / 200,000 = $2.10 per stock

P/E ratio = stock price / EPS

20x1 = $72.50 / $1.75 = 41.43

20x2 = $83.00 / $2.10 = 39.52

Failure in this stage can be a lasting liability whereas success here can set a strong foundation for later team effectiveness. What stage of team development is your team in?

Answers

Answer:

Storming stage.

Explanation:

The storming stage usually begins with the appearance of conflicts between the different styles that each member of the team performs the work.

It is natural for each individual to have their own style of carrying out their tasks, and this is natural in a team with different people profiles, so if the style of a member working causes some type of unforeseen problem for the team, conflicts and frustrations can happen that will negatively impact the workflow and the achievement of objectives and goals.

The storming also happens for other reasons, such as position disputes, lack of information and direction of the functions of each team member, work overload, disagreements, resistance, etc.

Therefore, it is important that at this stage of team development, there is a leadership aimed at establishing direct communication with the members and aimed at correcting their behaviors without overcoming the personality of each member. It is also essential to have a review of the rules, individual check-ins and a culture based on integration and motivation, where each member feels equally important to the team's success.

On June 1, Lulu's Performing Arts School purchased merchandise with a list price of $5,500 from Monty's Inc. with credit terms 2/10, n/30. On June 3, Lulu's returns $1,000 of the merchandise.

Required:
Compute the amount owed by Lulu's if the store pays within the discount period.

Answers

Answer:

$4,410

Explanation:

Discount refers the amount that is deducted from the usal price of a good sold or service rendered.

From the question, the credit terms 2/10, n/30 implies 2% discount if the amount owed is paid within 10 days while no discount will be enjoyed if the amount owed is paid after 10 days but must be beyond 30 days.

Therefore, the amount owed by Lulu's if the store pays within the discount period, i.e. within 10 days, can be calculated as follows:

Discount = (Purchases - Merchandise returned) * 2% = ($5,500 - $1,000) * 2% = $90

Amount owed = Purchases - Merchandise returned - Discount = $5,500 - $1,000 - 90 = $4,410.

Therefore, the amount owed by Lulu's if the store pays within the discount period is $4,410.

Canniff Air

                                       Actual                 Planned

Operating costs         $231,250              

The cost formula for plane operating costs is $56,960 per month plus $2,634 per flight plus $6 per passenger.

Planned Operating Costs= $56,960+ 2634 *67 flights + 6*270 passengers

                                         = $ 235058

Actual Operating Costs = $56,960+ 2634 *66 flights + 6*271 passengers

                                         = $ 56960 + 173844+ 1626

The firm faces a tax rate of 40%. What will be the WACC for this project?

Answers

Answer:

11.25%

Explanation:

Tunbull Co. are planning to start a project that requires an initial investment of $1,708,000

The firm is able to raise $1,708,000 in capital by issuing an amount of $750,000 in debt

Before-tax cost is 10.2%

Preferred stock is $78,000 at 11.4%

The equity is $880,000 at a cost of 14.3%

Tax rate is 40%

The first step is to calculate the weight of preferred stock, weight of debt, weight of equity and after-tax cost of debt.

(a)Weight of preferred stock

= $78,000/$1,708,000

= 0.0457

(b)Weight of debt

= $750,000/$1,708,000

= 0.04391

(c) weight of equity

= $880,000/$1,708,000

= 0.5152

(d) After-tax cost of debt

= 10.2% × (1-25/100)

= 10.2% × ( 1-0.25)

= 10.2%×0.75

= 7.64

Therefore, the wacc can be calculated as follows

Wacc= (weight of debt×after-tax cost)+(weight of preferred stock×cost of preferred stock)+(Weight of equity×cost of equity)

= (0.4391×0.0765)+(0.0457×0.1140)+(0.5152×0.1430)

= 0.03359+0.0052+0.07367

= 0.1125×100

= 11.25%

Hence the wacc for this project is 11.25%

Thornton, Inc., had taxable income of $128,267 for the year. The company's marginal tax rate was 35 percent and its average tax rate was 24 percent. How much did the company have to pay in taxes for the year?

Answers

Answer:

$30784.08

Explanation:

Taxable income can be refer to as the amount of income used to calculate how much tax an  organisation owes to the government in a particular tax year.

Thornton Inc. had taxable income of $128,267 for the year

The company's marginal tax rate is 35 percent

The company's average tax rate is 24 percent

To know how much did the company have to pay in taxes for the year, we multiply the Taxable income by the Company Average tax rate for the year.

=$128,267 * 24%

=$128,267 * 0.24

=$30784.08

Thornton Inc will pay $30784.08 for the year.

Enter the answer with 4 decimals (e.g. 1.1234)

Answers

Answer:

The beta of the other stock or stock B is 2.34

Explanation:

The beta of the portfolio is the weighted average of the individual stock betas that form up the portfolio. To calculate the beta for the portfolio, we use the following formula,

Portfolio beta = wA * Beta of A + wB * Beta of B + ... + wN * Beta of N

Where,

w represents the weight of each stock in the portfolio

As the portfolio is equally as risky as the market, the portfolio beta is assumed to be the same as that of the market and the beta is 1.

The beta is the measure of systematic risk and a risk free asset does not have risk and has a beta of 0.

To calculate the Beta of stock B in the portfolio, we simply put the available values in the formula for the portfolio beta,

1 = 1/3 * 0 + 1/3 * 0.66 + 1/3 * Beta of B

1 = 0 + 0.22 + 1/3 * Beta of B

1 - 0.22 = 1/3 * Beta of B

0.78 * 3 = 1 * Beta of B

2.34 = Beta of B

Thus, the beta of the other stock or stock B is 2.34

Spencer Company purchased a tractor at a cost of $360,000 on January 1, 2019. The tractor has an estimated salvage value of $60,000 and an estimated life of 8 years. If Spencer uses the straight-line method, what is the book value at January 1, 2023

Answers

Answer:

$210,000

Explanation:

Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

( $360,000 - $60,000) / 8 = $37,500

Depreciation expense each year of the useful life would be $37,500.

Book value in 2023 = Cost of asset - accumulated deprecation

There are 4 years between January 1, 2019 and January 1, 2023.

Accumulated depreciation = $37,500 x 4 = $150,000

Book value = $360,000 - $150,000 = $210,000

urrent and Quick Ratios The Nelson Company has $1,250,000 in current assets and $500,000 in current liabilities. Its initial inventory level is $400,000, and it will raise funds as additional notes payable and use them to increase inventory. How much can Nelson's short-term debt (notes payable) increase without pushing its current ratio below 1.2

Answers

Answer: $3,250,000

Explanation:

The Current Ratio is used to calculate if the company's current assets can pay off it's current Liabilities.

It is calculated by dividing Current Assets by Current Liabilities.

The company plans to increase it's note payable to enable it but more Inventory. We can therefore assume that the increase in notes Payable (current Liability) will be the same as the increase in inventory (current asset) since the former is funding the latter.

The company does not want the current Ratio dropping below 1.2 so 1.2 is the ideal ratio.

The formula will therefore be;

1.2 = (Current Assets + Change in Notes Payable ) / Current Liabilities + Change in Notes Payable

1.2 = (1,250,000 + Change in Notes Payable) / 500,000 + Change in Notes Payable

600,000 + 1.2(Change in Notes Payable) = 1,250,000 + Change in Notes Payable

1.2( Change in Notes Payable) - Change in Notes Payable = 1,250,000 - 600,000

0.2 (Change in Notes Payable) = 650,000

a. the agent is not acting in accordance with her agency status
b. the agent is acting as an undisclosed dual agent
c. the agent has breached fiduciary duties to both parties
d. the agent has not violated any duties, because she is not performing real estate services for the buyers

Answers

Answer:

d. The agent has not violated any duties, because she is not performing real estate services for the buyers

Explanation:

Here, at the open house, the agent, without proper introduction and without explaining that she represents the seller, started giving advice to a prospective buyer regarding the amount to offer for the house. By offering advice to the buyer and not disclosing who she represents, the agent is now acting as an undisclosed dual agent, also she has breached the loyalty duties to both parties. The agent is also not acting in accordance with her agency status.

Therefore the incorrect option is option D.) The agent has not violated any duties, because she is not performing real estate services for the buyers

Answers

Answer:

A) What is the break-even in dollar sales?

$150,000

B) What is the margin of safety percentage?

25%

C) What is the degree of operating leverage?

4

1. Using the degree of operating leverage and without changing anything in your worksheet, calculate the percentage change in net operating income if unit sales increase by 20%.

if unit sales increase by 20%, then profits should increase by 80%

2. Confirm your calculations in Requirement 3 above by increasing the unit sales in your worksheet by 20%

A. What is net operating income?

(10,000 x 1.2 x $20) - (10,000 x 1.2 x $8) - $90,000 = $240,000 - $96,000 - $90,000 = $54,000

B. By what percentage did the net operating income increase?

net operating income increased from $30,000 to $54,000 (an 80% increase)

Explanation:

selling price $20

variable costs $8

contribution margin $12

break even point = $90,000 / $12 = 7,500 x $20 = $150,000

margin of safety = (current sales - break even) / current sales = $50,000 / $200,000 = 25%

degree of operating leverage = (quantity x contribution margin) / [(quantity x contribution margin) - fixed costs] = (10,000 x $12) / ($120,000 - $90,000) = $120,000 / $30,000 = 4

or contribution margin / net profits = $120,000 / $30,00 = 4

Bill Phillips is developing a Monte Carlo simulation to value a complex and thinly traded security. Phillips wants to model one input variable to have negative skewness and a second input variable to have positive excess kurtosis. In a Monte Carlo simulation, Phillips can appropriately use:_________

Answers

Answer: Both of them

Explanation:

The Monte Carlo Simulation is a forecasting technique that allows one to find out the probability of occurence of different outcomes which may be difficult to come up with because there are multiple random variables involved.

Monte Carlo simulations are used in many diverse fields such as Finance, Engineering and Science.

As earlier mentioned, this simulation allows for multiple random variables so Phillips can use it to model both the variables to have different characteristics.

Ms. Parker would like to have $99.000 buy a new car in 8 yearsTo accumulate $99,000 in years, how much should she invest monthly in a sinking tund with 3% Interest compounded monthly?

Answers

Answer:

$1,161.23

Explanation:

For computing the monthly payment we need to apply the PMT formula i.e to be shown in the attachment below:

Given that,  

Present value = $99,000

Future value or Face value = $0

RATE = 3% ÷ 12 months = 0.25

NPER = 8 years × 12 months = 96 months

The formula is shown below:  

= PMT(RATE;NPER;-PV;FV;type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after applying the above formula, the monthly payment is $1,161.23

year was $2.78 and is expected to be $3 at the end of this year, the current stock price is $60, and the growth rate for dividends is 8 percent. Using the Gordon approach, what is the expected return?

Answers

Answer:

The expected return is 13%.

Explanation:

Note: Before answering the question, the full question is first stated as follows:

A firm's stock cash dividend per share for last year was $2.78 and is expected to be $3 at the end of this year, the current stock price is $60, and the growth rate for dividends is 8 percent. Using the Gordon approach, what is the expected return?

The answer to the explanation of the answer is now as follows:

Gordon’s theory which is also known as ‘Bird-in-the-hand’ theory states that the importing factor to consider in determining the value of a firm are the current dividends.

Therefore, the Gordon growth model (GGM) formula which assumes that there will a stable dividend growth rate year after year forever is employed for this question as follows:

P = d1 / (r – g) ……………………………………… (1)

Where;

P = current stock price = $60

d1 = next dividend = $3

r = expected return = ?

g = growth rate of dividend = 8%, or 0.08

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for r, we have:

60 = 3 / (r - 0.08)

60(r - 0.08) = 3

60r - 4.80 = 3

60r = 3 + 4.80

r = 7.80 / 60

r = 0.13, or 13%

Therefore, the expected return is 13%.

Answers

Answer:

NPV = $2,357.77

IRR = 14.31%

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested.

NPV and IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator.

Cash flow in year 0 = $-24,000

Cash flow each year in year 1 and 2 = $13,000

Cash flow in year 3 = 4,000

I = 8%

NPV = $2,357.77

IRR = 14.31%

To find the NPV using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
