Watters Umbrella Corp. issued 20-year bonds 2 years ago at a coupon rate of 6.4 percent. The bonds make semiannual payments. If these bonds currently sell for 110 percent of par value, what is the YTM

Answers

Answer:

2.78%

Explanation:

The YTM formula is:

YTM = {coupon + [(face value - market value)/n]} / [(face value + market value)/2]

coupon = $32face value = $1,000market value = $1,000 x 110 = $1,100n = 18 x 2 = 36

YTM = {$32 + [($1,000 - $1,100)/36]} / [($1,000 + $1,100)/2] = $29.222 / $1,050 =  2.78%

c. How long did it take on average for credit customers to pay off their accounts during the past year? (Use 365 days a year. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computations are as follows

a.  For company receivable turnover

As we know it is

= Credit Sales ÷ current account receivable balance

= $2,940,600 ÷ $457,615

= 6.43 times

b.

Now

company's days' sales in receivables is

= 365 ÷ Receivables turnover ratio

= 365  ÷ 6.43

= 56.77 days  

c.  Therefore the average collection period is the same as days sales in receivable i.e 56.77 days

A risky portfolio pays a 15% rate of return with probability 60% in a good state or a 5% return with probability 40% in a bad state, and a T-bill pays 5%. The risk premium on the risky investment is

Answers

Answer:

The risk premium on the risky investment is 8%

Explanation:

The first portfolio pays 15% rate of return with probability 60% in a good

The second portfolio 5% return with probability 40% in a bad state

The risk port-folio expected return = 60% * 15% + 40% * 5%

Expected return = 0.6 * 15% + 0.4* 5%

Expected return = 0.09 + 0.02

Expected return = 0.11

Expected return = 11%

Risk premium on the risky investment = Expected return - Risk free rate

= 11% - 5%

= 8%

The risk premium on the risky investment is 8%

Answers

Answer:

Company A 5.41

Company B 1.76

Company A benefits more from a 20% increase in sales.

Explanation:

The computation of the degree of operating leverage is shown below:-

Particulars            Company A           Company B

Sales                       $3,700,000          $3,800,000

Less:

Variable cost          $1,480,000             $3,040,000

                          ($3,700,000 × 40%)    ($3,800,000 × 80%)

Contribution

margin                  $2,220,000             $760,000

                      ($3,700,000 × 60%)     ($3,800,000 × 80%)

Less:

Fixed cost             $1,810,000              $330,000

Pretax income       $410,000                $430,000

After this we need to go further so that we can find out the degree of operating leverage For both company

For Company A

= Contribution margin ÷ Pretax income

= $2,220,000 ÷ $410,000

= 5.41

For company B

= Contribution margin ÷ Pretax income

= $760,000 ÷ $430,000

= 1.76

So, from the above calculation we can see that Company A is higher than Company B.

An investor has sold short stock worth $20,000 in a margin account, depositing the Regulation T margin requirement. If the market value of the stock falls to $16,000, what is the Selling Power in the account

Answers

Answer:

The selling power in the account is $20,000.

Explanation:

Credit - Short market value = Equity %

Sale $20,000 $20,000

Margin $10,000 $10,000

Total $30,000 $20,000 $10,000 50%

If the market value falls to $16,000, the account will show;

Credit - Short market value = Equity %

$30,000 $16,000 $14,000

To support a $16,000 stock position at 50% margin, equity of $8,000 is required. Since the account has $14,000 of equity, the excess of $10,000 may be borrowed and it's the

SMA amount. With $10,000 of SMA amount, twice this amount may be purchased or sold short in other marginal securities.

Answers

Answer:

Ending inventory= $816

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Apr. 1 Beginning inventory 470 $2.37

Apr. 20 Purchase 410 $2.72

Dunbar sold 580 units of inventory during the month.

To calculate the ending inventory under the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method, we need to use the cost of the last units incorporated into inventory.

Units in ending inventory= 880 - 580= 300

Ending inventory= 300*2.72= $816

Henri earned a salary of $50,000 in 2001 and $70,000 in 2006. The consumer price index was 177 in 2001 and 265.5 in 2006. Henri's 2006 salary in 2001 dollars is

Answers

Answer:

Henri's 2006 salary in 2001 dollars =$46,666.66

Explanation:

A rise in the price index implies inflation

Inflation is the increase in the general price level. Inflation erodes the value of money.  

This price index is the weighted average price of a basket of goods and services consumed by a typical consumer. It is used to measure the rate of inflation.  

So we can determine the salary in the base year value  as follows:  

2006 Salary in the base year terms=

CPI base year/CPI in the current year × salary in the current year

CPI base year- 177, CPI in the current yea- 256.5,

Salary in the current year - 70,000

Henri 2006 Salary in 2001 Dollar

=177/265.5 ×70,000/265.5 = 46,666.66

Henri's 2006 salary in 2001 dollars =$46,666.66

Identify the internal control weakness in the following situations. State how the person can hurt the company.
A. Jerry Miller works as a security guard at ALTEX parking in Denver. Miller has a master key to the cash box where commuters pay for parking. Each night Miller prepares the cash report that shows (a) the number of cars that parked on the lot and (b) the day’s cash receipts. Sandra Covington, the ALTEX treasurer, checks Miller’s figures by multiplying the number of cars by the parking fee per car. Covington then deposits the cash in the bank.
B. Sharon Fisher is the purchasing agent for Manatee Golf Equipment. Fisher prepares purchase orders based on requests from division managers of the company. Fisher faxes the purchase order to suppliers who then ship the goods to Manatee. Fisher receives each incoming shipment and checks it for agreement with the purchase order and the related invoice. She then routes the goods to the respective division managers and sends the receiving report and the invoice to the accounting department for payment.

Instead, the auditor computes a few ratios and compares the current-year ratio values to the ratio values a year ago. If the ratio values appear reasonable, the auditor concludes that Mattson’s financial statements are okay.

Answers

Answer:

Identification of the Internal Control Weaknesses:

A.  There is no segregation of duties and there is lack of access control.  Jerry Miller as a security guard is not expected to have a master key to the cash box.  With this he can pilfer the cash.  If he prepares the report that shows the number of cars that parked on the lot, he is not supposed to also prepare the day's cash receipts.  Otherwise, he can state any number of cars as parked that he likes, and which corresponds to the cash he might leave in the Cash box since he also has a master key.

B.  There is no segregation of duties and there is lack of supervision,  proper reconciliations, and assets audit.  Sharon Fisher handles purchase transactions from the beginning to the close all alone with a third party.  This exposes the company to procurement frauds and collusion with suppliers.  She can purchase assets for the company at prices that would enrich her personally.

C. Forming an audit opinion on the basis of ratio analysis of last year's comparative financial statements exposes the company to audit risks.  While ratio analysis is part of the basis for forming audit opinions, it is surely not the first audit procedure to obtain audit evidence to support his audit opinion on the financial statements.  An auditor is expected to obtain sufficient audit evidence and perform audit substantive tests of financial statement assertions.  He or she is also expected to review the internal control system to ensure that it is operating effectively after establishing its existence and reviewing changes in internal controls.

Explanation:

Internal Controls are controls established by management in order to help it achieve business goals.  There are many internal controls, including Separation of Duties, Access Controls , Authorization and Approvals, Asset Audits, Reconciliations, and Data Backups.  The purposes of internal controls are to establish the reliability of financial reporting, ensure timely feedback on the achievement of operational or strategic goals, and achieve compliance with financial management laws, and accounting regulations.

You have just taken out a $ 23 comma 000 car loan with a 4 % ​APR, compounded monthly. The loan is for five years. When you make your first payment in one​ month, how much of the payment will go toward the principal of the loan and how much will go toward​ interest? ​(Note: Be careful not to round any intermediate steps less than six decimal​ places.)

Answers

Answer:

Interest = $75.90

Principal = $347.64

Explanation:

First find the payment that is required per month. It will be an Annuity payment as the present value of the loan is given.

The loan is for 5 years compounded monthly so period is;

= 5 years * 12 months

= 60

Interest = 4/12

Present Value of Annuity= Payment * (1 - (1 + r) ^ -n)/r

23,000 = Payment * (1 - ( 1 + 4/12%) ^ -⁶⁰)/ 4/12%

23,000 = Payment * 54.304

Payment = 23,000/54.304

= $423.54

Interest Payment is;

= 4/12% * 23,000

= $75.90

Amount going towards Principal;

= 423.54 - 75.90

= $347.64

2. Explain how advertising and sales practices fed consumer demand during the late 1800s. What were the specific tactics used

Answers

Answer with its Explanation:

In the 1800s, advertising was done in local newspapers and in a number of magazines. The cost of advertising in newspapers was very high in those days because the only source of communication with the public was newspaper and magazines.

The designing of copying and opting to art was very common in those days which was adopted to attract key customers and placement of the advertisements in a specific place which would result in higher sales was also common to attract customer attention.

The telephone was invented in 1876, but still telemarketing started in 1970s. So the primary source of advertising and sales promotions was either by newspaper and magazines or face to face selling.

Preferred dividends : 75,000
Average stockholders' equity 2,500,000
Average common stockholders' equity : 1,875,000
Determine :
(a) the rate earned on stockholders' equity
(b) the rate earned on common stockholders' equity.

Answers

Answer:

(A) Rate earned on stockholder's equity=15%

(B) Rate earned on common stockhloder's equity= 16%

Explanation:

A company reports the following profitability analysis

Net income of $375,000

Preferred dividend of $75,000

Average stockhloder's equity of $2,500,000

Average common stockhloder's equity of $1,875,000

(A) The rate earned on stockholder's equity can be calculated as follows

= Net income/Average stockholders equity

= $375,000/$2,500,000

= 0.15×100

= 15%

(B) The rate earned on common stock holder's equity can be calculated as follows

= Net income-Preferred dividend/Average common equity

= $375,000-$75,000/$1,875,000

= $300,000/$1,875,000

= 0.16×100

= 16%

Hence the rate earned on stockholder's equity and common stockhloder's equity is 15% and 16% respectively.

Suppose the wealth effect is such that a $10 change in wealth produces a $2 change in consumption at each level of income. Assume real estate prices tumble such that wealth declines by $160. Instructions: Enter your answers as whole numbers. a.What will be the new level of consumption at the $680 billion level of disposable income

Answers

Answer: $632 billion

Explanation:

The wealth effect is such that a $10 change in wealth produces a $2 change in consumption. This means that for every change in wealth, we can expect a change of;

= 2/10

= 20 % of the wealth figure in consumption.

Real Estate prices have tumbled and prices decreased by $160.

That means that consumption decreased by;

Answers

Answer:Please see explanation for answers

Explanation:

A) Current Ratio    =   Current Assets / Current Liabilities

Total  Current Assets = $4,054million

Total Current Liabilities = $2,014million

Current Ratio = 4,054 / 2,014 = 2.01  : 1

B. Current Cash Debt Coverage Ratio =  Cash flow  Provided by Operating Activities / Average Current Liabilities

Average Current Liabilities = 2,014 + 1,601= 3,615 / 2 = $1,807.5

Current Cash Debt Coverage Ratio = 1,251 / 1,807.5 = 0.6921

C. Accounts receivable Turnover = Net  Sales / Average Accounts Receivables

Average Account Receivable = 2,035 + 1,942= 3,977 / 2 = $1,988.50million

Net  Sales = $8,258million  

Account Receivable Turnover = 8,258million / 1,988.50million = 4.15 Times

D. Average Collection Period: 365 / Account Receivable Turnover

Average Collection Period = 365 / 4.15 = 87.95 Days

E. Inventory Turnover = Cost of Goods Sold / Average Inventory

Cost of Goods Sold = 5,328million  ,

Average Inventory = 898 + 900 =1,798 / 2 = 899

Inventory Turnover = 5,328 / 899 = 5.93 Times

F. Days in Inventory = 365 / Inventory Turnover Ratio

Days in Inventory = 365 / 5.93 = 61.55 Days
