Answer: 43.8 days
Explanation:
Average days of school inventory can be calculated as:
= Average inventory balance/(Cost of goods sold/365)
= $3million/($25 million/365)
= $3 million/$68493.15
= 43.8 days
Joe Jones, Inc. has a beta of .85. The risk-free rate is 5% and the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 10%. a. Compute the required return for Joe Jones using the security market line (SML) equation.
Answer: 9.25%
Explanation:
Risk free rate, Rf = 5% = 0.05
We then subtract the risk free rate of 5% from the expected date of return on market portfolio of 10%. This will be:
= 10% - 5% = 5%
Beta = 0.85
Required return will now be:
= Rf + (Rm-Rf) x Beta
= 5% + (5% × 0.85)
= 5% + 4.25%
= 9.25%
A company has a pension liability of $460,000,000 that it must pay in 29 in years. If it can earn an annual interest rate of 4.2 percent, how much must it deposit today to fund this liability?
a. $133,883,255.09
b. $139,506.351.81
c. 44,08571.14
d. $11755.30770
e. $121423,867.90
Answer:
PV= $139,506,351.8
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Future Value= $460,000,0000
Number of periods= 29 years
Interest rate= 4.2%
To calculate the initial investment, we need to use the following formula:
PV= FV / (1+i)^n
PV= 460,000,000 / (1.042^29)
PV= $139,506,351.8
a. How much would you pay for a Treasury bill that matures in 182 days and pays $10,000 if you require a 1.8% discount rate?
b. If the Treasury also received $750 million in non-competitive bids, who will receive T-bills, in what quantity, and at what price?
Answer: $9909
Explanation:
Let the amount that will be paid be represented by y. The question can now be solved as:
(10000 - y)/10000 × 360/182 = 0.018
(10000-y)/10000 = 0.018 × 182/360
(10000 - y)/10000 = 0.0091
10000-y = 0.0091 × 10000
10000 - y = 91
y = 10000 - 91
y = $9909
paid to acquire , a weekly advertising paper. At the time of the acquisition, 's balance sheet reported total assets of and liabilities of . The fair market value of 's assets was . The fair market value of 's liabilities was . Read the requirementsLOADING.... Requirement 1. How much goodwill did purchase as part of the acquisition of ? Purchase price to acquire Mesa Herald Market value of Mesa Herald's assets Less: Market value of Mesa Herald's liabilities Less: Market value of Mesa Herald's net assets
Full question attached
Answer and Explanation:
A. Given that Thrifty Nickels Assets fair value and liabilities are given by $100000 and $70000 respectively(we do not use the book value in calculating goodwill here) and Acquisition value is $230000
Goodwill = purchase price -net assets
Since we know purchase price =$230000
We calculate net assets= total assets -total liabilities
Total assets =$100000
Total liabilities =$70000
Net assets=$100000-$70000=$30000
We substitute in goodwill formula
Goodwill=$230000-$30000=$200000
Therefore goodwill =$200000
B. We journalize entries for the acquisition in Deca's books as follows :
Debit Assets $100000
Debit Goodwill $200000
Credit liabilities $70000
Credit cash $230000
We debit assets since it received and increased by $100000,we debit goodwill since it also received and increased by $200000. We credit liabilities since it also increased by $70000 from the acquisition (liabilities accounts are credited). Cash was spent and therefore is credited since it reduced by $230000

Clark Company estimated the net realizable value of its accounts receivable as of December 31, 2019, to be $167,000, based on an aging schedule of accounts receivable. Clark has also provided the following information: The accounts receivable balance on December 31, 2019 was $177,400. Uncollectible accounts receivable written off during 2019 totaled $12,200. The allowance for doubtful accounts balance on January 1, 2019 was $15,400. How much is Clark's 2019 bad debt expense
Answer: $7200
Explanation:
Clark's 2019 bad debt expense will be calculated thus:
Balance for allowance for doubtful accounts will be:
= $177400 - $167000
= $10400
The Uncollectible accounts written off will be:
= $15400 - $12200
= $3200
Clark's 2019 bad debt expense:
= $10400 - $3200
= $7200

Explanation:
Jessica and Robert have two young children. They have $7,000 of qualified child care expenses and an AGI of $22,000 in 2019. What is their allowable child and dependent care credit considering their pre-credit tax liability
Answer:
$0
Explanation:
The computation of the their allowable child and dependent care credit is shown below:
In the case when the income is below $35,000 than full 35% would be allowed
But the qualified child expense would be limited to $6,000
So, here the amount would be
= $6,000 × 35%
= $1,860
Already there is a pre credit tax liability so $0 should be considered as it would not received any credit
An investor plans to divide $200,000 between two investments. The first yields a certain profit of 10%, whereas the second yields a profit with expected value 18% and standard deviation 6%. If the investor divides the money equally between these two investments, find the mean and standard deviation of the total profit.
Answer:
mean = 14%; standard deviation = 3%
Explanation:
We treat the combined investment as a portfolio, with 50% each of the portfolio size invested in each asset.
Asset A: return (r) = 10%; standard deviation (s) = 0
Asset B: return (r) = 18%; standard deviation (s) = 6%
Portfolio mean (R) =
[tex](w_{1}*r_{1})+(w_{2}*r_{2})\\=(0.5*0.1)+(0.5*0.18)\\=0.05+0.09\\=0.14[/tex]
Therefore, portfolio mean = 14%.
Portfolio standard deviation (S) = [tex][(w_{1}^{2}*s_{1}^{2})+(w_{2}^{2}*s_{2}^{2})+(2w_{1} w_{2}COV_{12} )]^{\frac{1}{2}}[/tex]
Since no information was given about portfolio covariance, we will assume it is zero.
[tex]S=[(w_{1}^{2}*s_{1}^{2})+(w_{2}^{2}*s_{2}^{2})]^{\frac{1}{2}}\\=[(0.5^{2} *0^{2} )+(0.5^{2} *0.06^{2} )]\\=0.25*0.0036\\=0.03[/tex]
Therefore, portfolio standard deviation = 3%.
On January 1, 2016, Brian's stock portfolio is worth $100,000. On September 30, 2016, $5,000 is withdrawn from the portfolio, and immediately after this withdrawal the portfolio has a value of $105,000. Twelve months later, the value of the portfolio is $108,000, and Brian adds $3,000 worth of stock to his portfolio. On December 31, 2017, the portfolio is worth $100,000. What is the time-weighted rate of return for Brian's stock portfolio over the two year period
Answer:
1.93%
Explanation:
The time weighted rate of return will be computed by combining the return at every time period demarcated by a withdrawal/addition.
Time 1: Jan 1, 2016 to Sep 30, 2016
start value = 100,000; end value = (105,000+5,000) = 110,000
Return = [tex]\frac{110,000}{100,000}=1.1[/tex]
Time 2: Sep 30, 2016 to Sep 30, 2017
start value = 105,000; end value = 108,000
Return = [tex]\frac{108,000}{105,000}=1.028571[/tex]
Time 3: Sep 30, 2017 to Dec 31, 2017
start value = (108,000 + 3,000) = 111,000; end value = 100,000
Return = [tex]\frac{100,000}{111,000}=0.900901[/tex].
Therefore, time weighted return
= (1.1 * 1.028571 * 0.900901) - 1
= 0.019305
= 1.93%.

Answer:
1.
Present value = $65500.60053 rounded off to $65500.60
2.
Present value = $76009.84174 rounded off to $76009.84
3.
Present value = $76654.22671 rounded off to $76654.23
4.
PV of perpetuity = $76666.66667 rounded off to $76666.67
Explanation:
The payments from the investment can be classified as being an ordinary annuity as the payments made by the investment offer are of constant amount and occur at the end of the period, occur after equal intervals of time and are for a defined and finite time period except for the payments made in case of requirement 4. The formula to calculate the present value of annuity that will be used in requirement 1, 2 and 3 is attached.
1.
Present value = 9200 * [(1 - (1 + 0.12)^-17) / 0.12]
Present value = $65500.60053 rounded off to $65500.60
2.
Present value = 9200 * [(1 - (1 + 0.12)^-42) / 0.12]
Present value = $76009.84174 rounded off to $76009.84
3.
Present value = 9200 * [(1 - (1 + 0.12)^-77) / 0.12]
Present value = $76654.22671 rounded off to $76654.23
4.
If the payments occur for an infinite period of time, they can be classified as a perpetuity.
The formula to calculate the present value of perpetuity is as follows,
PV of perpetuity = Cash Flow / r
Where,
r is the required rate of return or discount rate
PV of perpetuity = 9200 / 0.12
PV of perpetuity = $76666.66667 rounded off to $76666.67
As a result of a thorough physical inventory, Coronado Company determined that it had inventory worth $321000 at December 31, 2020. This count did not take into consideration the following facts: Walker Consignment currently has goods worth $46300 on its sales floor that belong to Coronado but are being sold on consignment by Walker. The selling price of these goods is $75000. Coronado purchased $21100 of goods that were shipped on December 27, FOB destination, that will be received by Coronado on January 3. Determine the correct amount of inventory that Coronado should report.
Answer:
The correct cost of inventory that Coronado should report is $367300
Explanation:
The goods sent on consignment still belong to the consignor until they are sold off by the consignee. So, the consignor should add the unsold consignment goods in its inventory. Thus we will add the cost of goods sent on consignment to the value of inventory.
Value of inventory = 321000 + 46300 = $367300
The goods purchased by Coronado on 27 December with FOB destination should not be added to the cost of inventory as with FOB destination terms, the goods do not belong to the buyer until they are delivered to their destination by the seller.
Thus, the correct cost of inventory that Coronado should report is $367300
Your parents will retire in 27 years. They currently have $280,000 saved, and they think they will need $1,900,000 at retirement. What annual interest rate must they earn to reach their goal, assuming they don't save any additional funds? Round your answer to two decimal places.
Answer:
Annual Rate=7.35%
Explanation:
Calculation for the annual interest rate must they earn to reach their goal
Number of years =27
PV =280,000
FV =1,900,000
Using this formula
Annual Rate=(FV/PV)^(1/n)-1
Let plug in the formula
Annual Rate=(1,900,000/280,000)^(1/27)-1
Annual Rate=6.7857^(1/27)-1
Annual Rate=1.07349-1
Annual Rate=0.0735
Annual Rate=7.35%
Therefore the annual interest rate must they earn to reach their goal will be 7.35%

If placed in a LaGrange point, the depot could save $50,000K annually. The depot can be constructed for $200,000K today and will be used for a period of 10 years. It has a salvage value of $10,000K at the end of its useful life. The new depot will require an annual maintenance cost of $9,000K. Capital financing is available at 4.78% per semiannual period compounded monthly. Find the present worth.
Answer:
NPV = $55,894.45
Explanation:
the initial outlay of the project is $200,000
the salvage value is $10,000
useful life 10 years
annual costs $9,000
annual savings $50,000
luckily there are no taxes in space
we must determine the effective interest rate in order to be able to discount the future cash flows
(1 + 0.0478/6)¹² - 1 = 9.99%
the net cash flow per year (for years 1 - 9) = $50,000 - $9,000 = $41,000
net cash flow for year 10 = $41,000 + $10,000 = $51,000
using a financial calculator, the NPV = $55,894.45
Lambda Computer Products competed for and won a contract to produce two prototype units of a new type of computer that is based on laser optics rather than on electronic binary bits. The first unit produced by Lambda took 5,000 hours to produce and required $250,000 worth of material, equipment usage, and supplies. The second unit took 4,250 hours and used $237,500 worth of materials, equipment usage, and supplies. Labor is $20 per hour. Use Exhibit 6.5. a. Lambda was asked to present a bid for 10 additional units as soon as the second unit was completed. Production would start immediately. What would this bid be
Answer:
$2,731,672.50
Explanation:
first unit produced by lambda took 5,000 hours to produce and required $250,000 worth of material, equipment usage, and supplies
the second unit took 4,250 hours and used $238,500 worth of materials, equipment usage, and supplies
learning rate = time needed to produce second unit / time needed to produce first unit = 4,250 hours / 5,000 hours = 85%
materials and equipment usage rate = $237,500 / $250,000 = 95%
using the attached table of cumulative values, we can determine the cumulative improvement factors needed to solve this question:
Lambda's accumulated cost for producing 10 more computers
work hours = 4,250 x 7.116 (85% and 10 units) x $20 per hour = $604,860materials and equipment = $238,500 x 8.955 (95% and 10 units) = $2,126,812.50total = $604,860 + $2,126,812.50 = $2,731,672.50"Should Dillard's keep its excellent department store credit card program? ______ Yes ______ No" is an example of _____.

a. exporting.b. subsidiary.c. strategic alliance.d. multinational enterprise.e. foreign acquisition.
Answer:
b. subsidiary
Explanation:
Subsidiaries are companies that belong to a larger parent company. They are usually established overseas as an extension of the parent company's operations.
Parent companies of the subsidiaries hold controlling interest in stock, therefore they tailor the subsidiaries to their exact needs.
When there is a 100% ownership by the parent company it is called a wholly owned subsidiary
You’ve borrowed $26,838 on margin to buy shares in Company BBYT, which is now selling at $42.6 per share. You invest 1,260 shares. Your account starts at the initial margin requirement of 50%. The maintenance margin is 35%. At what price will you receive a margin call?
Answer:
the price that received a margin call is $32.77
Explanation:
The computation of the price that received a margin call is shown below:
= Borrowed amount ÷(Number of shares - ( Number of shares × Maintenance margin %))
= $26,838 ÷ (1,260 shares - (1,260 × 35%))
= $32.77
Hence, the price that received a margin call is $32.77
We simply applied the above formula and the same is to be considered
Crador Corp. uses a process costing system in which direct materials are added at the beginning of the process and conversion costs are incurred uniformly throughout the process. Beginning inventory for January consisted of 1,100 units. 14,000 units were started into the process during January. On January 31, the inventory consisted of 800 units. Equivalent units for conversion costs were 14,800. What percentage complete was the ending inventory with respect to conversion costs on January 31 using the weighted-average method
Answer: 62.5%
Explanation:
Equivalent units = Units completed and transferred out + percentage completed of ending inventory
14,800 = (1,100 + 14,000 - 800) + Percentage
14,800 = 14,300 + Percentage amount completed
Percentage amount completed = 14,800 - 14,300
Percentage amount completed = 500 units
Percentage = Ending equivalent units / ending inventory
= (500/800) * 100
= 62.5%
A year after buying her car, Anita has been offered a job in Europe. Her car loan is for $27,000 at a 6% nominal interest rate for 48 months. If she can sell the car for $20,000, how much does she get to keep after paying off the loan
Answer:
Instead of keeping a balance she would rather need to pay the remaining mortgage balance of $843.51
Explanation:
The first task here is to compute the monthly payment of the car loan using the formula below:
PMT=P(r/n)/1-(1+r/n)^(-nt)
P=loan amount= $27,000
r=interest rate=6 %
n=number of monthly payments in a year=12
t= duration of loan=4 years ( 48/12)
PMT=27000*(6%/12)/(1-(1+6%/12)^(-4*12)
PMT=27000*(6%/12)/(1-(1+6%/12)^(-48)
PMT=27000*(6%/12)/(1-(1.005)^-48
PMT=135 /(1-0.787098411 )
PMT=634.10
The balance of the loan after one year is the present value of the remaining 36 monthly payments as computed thus:
PV=monthly payment*(1-(1+r)^-n/r
monthly payment=634.10
r=monthly interest rate=6%/12=0.5%
n=number of monthly payments left=36
PV=634.10*(1-(1+0.5%)^-36/0.5%
PV=634.10*(1-0.835644919 )/0.5%
pv=$20,843.51
balance left after paying the loan=$20,000-$20,843.51 =-$843.51

Pauley Company needs to determine a markup for a new product. Pauley expects to sell 22,000 units and wants a target profit of $16 per unit. Additional information is as follows: Variable product cost per unit $ 18 Variable administrative cost per unit 13 Total fixed overhead 20,500 Total fixed administrative 36,700 Using the variable cost method, what markup percentage to variable cost should be used
Answer:
variable markup % = 60%
Explanation:
total units sold 22,000
total costs associated with selling the 22,000 units:
variable production costs $18 x 22,000 = $396,000
variable S&A costs $13 x 22,000 = $286,000
fixed overhead = $20,500
fixed S&A = $36,700
total costs = $739,200
total cost per unit = $33.60
selling price = $33.60 + $16 = $49.60
markup percentage = [(sales price - unit cost) / unit cost] x 100
the total markup % = [49.60 - 33.60) / 33.60] x 100 = 47.62%
but since we are going to calculate the markup percentage solely based on variable costs, then:
variable cost per unit = $31
selling price = $49.60
the variable markup % = [49.60 - 31) / 31] x 100 = 60%
Ford Motor Company has issued 8% convertible debentures, convertible at a 25:1 ratio. Currently the debenture is trading at 110. The stock is trading at 38. What is the conversion price of the stock
Answer:
40
Explanation:
Calculation for the conversion price
Based on the information given we were told that the company's convertible ratio is 25:1 which simply means that 1,000 par will be divided by the covertible ratio .
Hence,
Conversion price of the stock = 1,000/25
Conversion price of the stock = 40
Therefore the Conversion price of the stock will be 40
CDB stock is currently priced at $85. The company will pay a dividend of $5.69 next year and investors require a return of 11.6 percent on similar stocks. What is the dividend growth rate on this stock?
Answer:
4.91%
Explanation:
CDB stock is currently priced at $85
The company will pay a dividend of $5.69
The required return is 11.6%
There for the dividend growth rate on this stock can be calculated as follows
11.6/100= (5.69/85) + growth rate
0.116= 0.0669 + growth rate
0.116 - 0.0669 = growth rate
0.0491 × 100 = growth rate
Growth rate = 4.91%
The firm has just declared a dividend of $1.09 per share for the current fiscal year. The firm has earnings per share of $2.11, and 225,000 shares outstanding with a market price of $31.17 per share prior to the ex-dividend day. Ignore taxes. As a result of this dividend, the: A) the current dividend yield is 51.66% B) retained earnings will increase by $245,250. C) the current dividend payout ratio is 3.497% D) earnings per share will increase to $3.20. E) price-earnings ratio will be 14.26 ex-dividend.
Answer: E) price-earnings ratio will be 14.26 ex-dividend.
Explanation:
Stock prices generally decrease in price by the price of the dividend on ex-dividend date.
This means that this stock will reduce to:
= 31.17 - 1.09
= $30.08
Price to Earnings ratio = Stock price/ Earnings per share
= 30.08/2.11
= $14.26

Sampson Industries has an annual plant capacity of 70,000 units; current production is 59,000 units per year. At the current production volume, the variable cost per unit is $26.00 and the fixed cost per unit is $4.80. The normal selling price of Sampson's product is $41.00 per unit. Sampson has been asked by Caldwell Company to fill a special order for 7,000 units of the product at a special sales price of $20.00 per unit. Caldwell is located in a foreign country where Sampson does not currently operate. Caldwell will market the units in its country under its own brand name, so the special order is not expected to have any effect on Sampson's regular sales. Read the requirementsLOADING.... Requirement 1. How would accepting the special order impact Sampson's operating income? Should Sampson accept the special order? Complete the following incremental analysis to determine the impact on Sampson's operating income if it accepts this special order. (Enter a "0" for any zero balances. Use parentheses or a minus sign to indicate a decrease in contribution margin and/or operating income from the special order.) Incremental Analysis of Special Sales Order Decision Total Order (7,000 units) Revenue from special order $140,000 Less expenses associated with the order: Less: Variable manufacturing cost 182,000 Contribution margin $(42,000) Less: Additional fixed expenses associated with the order – Increase (decrease) in operating income from the special order
Answer:
Sampson Industries
1. How would accepting the special order impact Sampson's operating income?
The acceptance of the special order will decrease Sampson's operating income by $42,000.
2. Should Sampson accept the special order?
No. Sampson should not accept the special order. It does not make any contribution in reducing the fixed costs. Instead, it decreases the net income. Special orders should be accepted when they add to the contribution in defraying the fixed costs, even if they do not add to the net income.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Annual plant capacity = 70,000 units
Current production = 59,000
Variable cost per unit = $26.00
Fixed cost per unit = $4.80

Price of special order = $20
Incremental Analysis of Special Sales Order Decision
Total Order (7,000 units)
Revenue from special order $140,000
Less expenses associated with the order:
Less: Variable manufacturing cost 182,000
Contribution margin $(42,000)
Less: Additional fixed expenses associated with the order –
Increase (decrease) in operating income from the special order ($42,000)
West Side Corporation is expected to pay the following dividends over the next four years: $16, $12, $11, and $7.50. Afterward, the company pledges to maintain a constant 6 percent growth rate in dividends forever. If the required return on the stock is 16 percent, what is the current share price?
a. $63.27.
b. $61.40.
c. $68.82.
d. $65.17.
e. $60.11.
Answer:
$77.81
Explanation:
We are given that West Side Corporation is expected to pay the following dividends over the next four years: $16, $12, $11, and $7.50.
Required rate - 16%
Growth rate = 6%
We are supposed to find the current share price
Formula :[tex]P_0=\sum_{t=0}^{T}\frac{D_T}{(1+r)^t}+\frac{D_{T+1}}{r-G}(1+r)^{-T}[/tex]
D = Dividends
t = time
r = required rate
G= Growth rate
Substitute the values in formula :
[tex]P_0=\frac{16}{(1+0.16)^1}+\frac{12}{(1+0.16)^2}+\frac{11}{(1+0.16)^3}+\frac{7.50}{(1+0.16)^4}+\frac{7.50(1+0.06)}{0.16-0.06}(1+0.16)^{-4}\\P_0=77.81\\[/tex]
