Answer:
Excess reserve increases by $40,000
Required reserve increases by $5,000
Explanation:
In order to calculate the reserve, we need to multiply the Deposit received by a required reserve ratio.
DATA
Reserve ratio = 10%
Deposit received = $50,000
Loan to customer = $5,000
Solution
Reserve = Deposit x Required reserve ratio
Reserve = $50,000 x 10%
Reserve = $5,000
After providing a $5,000 loan to the customer and keeping $5,000 as a reserve remaining $40,000 would be deposited in the Federal Reserve.
Cullumber Corporation had 312,000 shares of common stock outstanding on January 1, 2017. On May 1, Cullumber issued 29,700 shares.
(a) Compute the weighted-average number of shares outstanding if the 29,700 shares were issued for cash.
Weighted-average number of shares outstanding $
(b) Compute the weighted-average number of shares outstanding if the 29,700 shares were issued in a stock dividend.
Weighted-average number of shares outstanding $
Answer:
a. Issued for Cash = ($312,000 * 12/12) + ($29,700 * 8/12)
= $312,000 + $19,800
= $331,800
b. Issued in a stock dividend: Shares issued in the stock dividend are assumed outstanding from the beginning of the year
= ($312,000 * 12/12) + ($29,700 * 12/12)
= $312,000 + $29,700
= $341,700
A newly formed firm must decide on a plant location. There are two alternatives under consideration: locate near the major raw materials or locate near the major customers. Locating near the raw materials will result in lower fixed and variable costs than locating near the market, but the owners believe there would be a loss in sales volume because customers tend to favor local suppliers. Revenue per unit will be $172 in either case.
Omaha Kansas City
Annual fixed costs ($ millions) $1.0 $1.1
Variable cost per unit $30 $45
Expected annual demand (units) 9800 11,625
Required:
Using the above information, determine what the profit would be for Kansas City.
Answer:
Profit for Kansas City = $376,375
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Omaha Kansas City
Expected annual demand (units) 9,800 11,625
Annual fixed costs $1,000,000 $1,100,000
Variable cost per unit $30 $45 $294,000 $523,125
Total cost $1,294,000 $1,623,125
Revenue $1,685,600 $1,999,500
Profit $391,600 $376,375
From the above differential analysis, it appears that locating in Omaha would be better and more profitable than locating in Kansas City for the company. This is based on the fact that more profit ($15,225) will be generated with Omaha location than locating in Kansas City.
O'Mally Department Stores is considering two possible expansion plans. One proposal involves opening 5 stores in Indiana at the cost of $1,810,000. Under the other proposal, the company would focus on Kentucky and open 6 stores at a cost of $2,000,000. The following information is available: Indiana proposal Kentucky proposal Required investment $1,810,000 $2,000,000 Estimated life 6 years 6 years Estimated residual value $80,000 $40,000 Estimated annual cash inflows over the next 10 years $700,000 $800,000 Required rate of return 13% 13% The accounting rate of return for the Indiana proposal is closest to (Round any intermediary calculations to the nearest dollar, and round your final answer to the nearest hundredth of a percent, X.XX%.)
Answer:
O'Mally Department Stores
The accounting rate of return for the Indiana proposal is closest to 24.28%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Indiana proposal Kentucky proposal
Required investment $1,810,000 $2,000,000
Estimated life 6 years 6 years
Estimated residual value $80,000 $40,000
Estimated depreciable cost $1,730,000 $1,960,000
Average depreciable cost $288,333 $326,667
Estimated annual cash inflows
over the next 10 years $700,000 $800,000
Average cash inflows $70,000 $80,000
Required rate of return 13% 13%
Accounting rate of return = Average cash inflows/Average depreciable cost x 100 = $70,000/$288,333 x 100 = 24.28%
The Indiana proposal of O'Mally Department Stores' accounting rate of return is the ratio of estimated accounting profit to the average investment cost. The estimated accounting profit is equivalent to the average cash inflow and the average investment cost is equivalent to the average depreciable cost.
Planet Company had operating income of $12,000, average operating assets of $125,000, and sales of $45,000. What is Planet's return on investment (ROI)
Answer:
36.36%
Explanation:
Return on investment is given as;
Profit / Cost of goods sold × 100%
Given that profit is $12,000 and sales is $45,000 ;
Cost of goods sold
= $45,000 - $12,000
= $33,000
Therefore, return on investment is
= 12,000 / 33,000 × 100%
= 36.36%

The Sweet Tooth Restaurant borrowed $3,000 on a note dated May 15 with a simple interest of 11%. The maturity date of the loan is September 1. The restaurant made partial payments of $875 on June 15 and $940 on August 1. Find the amount due on the maturity date.
Answer:
Amount due is $1,256.14
Explanation:
Calculation of the interest to date at time of 1st partial payment
I1=PRT1
I1= 3,000 * 0.11 * 31/360
I1= $28.42
Remaining Principal = Principal + Interest - Payment
P1 = 3,000 + 28.42 - 875
P1 = $2,153.42
Calculation of the interest to date at time of 2nd partial payment
I2 = P1RT2
I1= 2,153.42* 0.11 * 47/360
I1= $30.93
Remaining Principal = Principal + Interest - Payment
P2= 2,153.42 + 30.93 - 940
P2= $1,244.35
Calculation of the remaining interest on the maturity date
I3= P2RT3
I3= 1,244.35 * 0.11 * 0.31/360
I3= $11.79
Amount due = Remaining Principal + Interest
P3= 1,244.35 + 11.79
P3= $1,256.14
Thus, the amount due is $1,256.14
Since the 1980s and 1990s, segmentation in global financial markets has been reduced. As a result of this, the correlation among securities markets has increased, thereby reducing, but not eliminating, the benefits of international portfolio diversification. True or Worse
Answer: True
Explanation:
With the on-going drive towards Globalization, companies took advantage to raise more capital by listing across various stock exchanges in the world. The result of this became that the securities market became more correlated.
This had the advantage of granting many companies enough capital that they became Multinational companies but it had the disadvantage of reducing the benefits of international portfolio diversification because the companies would be able to influence the movement of stock across the nations that they are listed in. Where before you could trade in Japan if there were losses in the NYSE, with a company being on both and suffering, both exchanges would feel it.
Regulations that permit a regulated firm to cover its costs and to make a normal level of profit are commonly referred to as
Answer:
cost plus regulation
Explanation:
Cost plus regulation is generally used by the government to regulate monopolies (mainly natural monopolies like utilities, and others). The price that the monopoly can charge for its goods or services is set by the government and it should generally cover all of the company's costs plus allow it to make a "normal" profit.
The required investment cost of a new, large shopping center is $49 million. The salvage value of the project is estimated to be $20 million (the value of the land). The project's life is 15 years and the annual operating expenses are estimated to be $14 million. The MARR for such projects is 15% per year. What must the minimum annual revenue be to make the shopping center a worthwhile venture?
Answer:
The minimum annual revenue is 22.38 million.
Explanation:
Let the minimum annual revenue = X
Therefore,
The present value of cash inflows = Present value of cash outflows
X (P/A,15%,15) + 20 (P/F,15%,15)= 49*1 + 14(P/A,15%,15)
Now look into the annuity table or compound interest factor table and use that values to solve the equation.
X(5.847) + 20 (0.1229) = 49 + 14 (5.847)
X(5.847) = 130.858
X = 130.858 / 5.847
X = 22.38 millions
The minimum annual revenue = 22.38 million.
Jeff has the opportunity to receive lump-sum payments either now or in the future. Which of the following opportunities is the best, given that the interest rate is 4% per year?
a. one that pays $ 900 now
b. one that pays $ 1080 in two years
c. one that pays $ 1350 in five years
d. one that pays $ 1620 in ten years
Answer:
c. one that pays $ 1350 in five years
Explanation:
we have to calculate the present value of each option:
option a, $900 (that is the present value)option b, $1,080 in 2 years. PV = $1,080 / (1 + 4%)² = $998.52option c, $1,350 in 5 years. PV = $1,350 / (1 + 4%)⁵ = $1,109.60option d, $1,620 in 10 years. PV = $1,620 / (1 + 4%)¹⁰ = $1,094.41Option c yields the highest present value = $1,109.60

Tri-Coat Paints has a current market value of $41 per share with earnings of $3.64. What is the present value of its growth opportunities (PVGO) if the required return is 9%? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
$0.56
Explanation:
Tri-coat paints has a current market value of $41 per share
They also have an earning of $3.64
The required return is 9%
= 9/100
= 0.09
Therefore, the present value of its growth opportunities can be calculated as follows
= $41-($3.64/0.09)
= $41-40.44
= $0.56
Hence the present value of its growth opportunities is $0.56

Explanation:
1. What are Red Bull's greatest strengths and risks as more companies (like Coca-Cola, Pepsi, and Monster) enter the energy drink category and gain market share? 2. Should Red Bull do more traditional advertising? Why or why not? Discuss the effectiveness of Red Bull's sponsorships, for example, Bull Stratos. Is this a good use of Red Bull' marketing budget? Where should the company draw the line?
Answer:
Strengths
RedBull is a well-established brand in the Energy Drink sub-sector.It has been in existence since 1987 making it a 33-year-old company. That's a lot of experience doing the same thing. Given its years of experience, consumers have a lot of confidence in its brand. This means it has strong brand equity.As of 2019, RedBull still has the highest market share of any energy drink in the world with a record 7.5 billion cans soldRisks
The challenge is this, Coca-cola is a much older company with about 128 years behind it. It was established in 1892.Coca-cola equally has a very strong brand equityIn the carbonated drinks sub-sector, it has dominated the sector since 2004. It's market share is estimated at 42.5%.It has about 500 brands compared to Redbull which has only one brand.In Pepsi was created in 1893. Just one year younger than Coca-cola. It currently has about 24.9% of the soda market. Within the cola segment alone, it has about 100 flavours.Monster energy as a strong entrant into the energy drink market is only 18 years old and it already has 49 different drinks with about 14% market share worldwide.Suffice it to say that if Red Bull does not concieve of a critical strategy to maintain market dominance, it may continue to bleed it's market share.
2. Red Bull should do more than traditional advertising.
There is no reason why it can go into the Soda space. There are countries where the big players still exert a huge dominance. Mexico, for instance, consumes the more coca-cola than anywhere else in the world.
Red Bull in addition to keeping it's market share through aggressive advertising, can enter into the soda market, targeting these regions where coca-cola and other players seem to have a pseudo monopoly.
Red Bull can also look at creating more flavours depending on the psychographics of the target market it is looking at.
Bull Stratos
Red Bull Stratos is the official name for the project involving Mr Baumgartner's mission. Mr Baumgartner's project involved a record breaking jump for the ages from the edge of space which cost about USD 30 million. It is on record that this is nothing like what Red Bull have ever done before and it did so at a fraction of it's annual sports marketing which is estimated at about USD 300 Million.
To answer the question about its effectiveness, its definitely yes.
Over 8 million people saw the jump which had the Red Bull logo/ branding conspicuously displayed. It was dubbed "the most successful Public Relations campaign of year 2012."
The line will always be dictated by the metrics which show returns on marketing budget invested.
Any strategy that currently works to enhance the brand of Red Bull or at least keep its dominance over the energy drink market, must be explored.

Variable costs per unit manufacturing labor wages $21.00; supplies used in production $9.00; packaging cost $2.75, warranty cost $4
Required: Compute total costs to be incurred for a week with 2,770 units of activity. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Total cost___________
Answer:
Total cost= $123,525
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Fixed costs: supervisor's salary $1,200; factory rent $2,900
Mixed costs: utilities $1,700+ $5.75 per unit
Variable costs per unit manufacturing labor wages $21.00; supplies used in production $9.00; packaging cost $2.75, warranty cost $4
We need to determine the total cost of 2,770 units:
Total variable cost= 5.75*2,770 + 21*2,770 + 9*2,770 + 2.75*2,770 + 4*2,770
Total variable cost= $117,725
Total fixed costs= 1,200 + 2,900 + 1,700= $5,800
Total cost= 117,725 + 5,800= $123,525

Greater pricing power is most likely to result from greater:A. unused capacity.B. market concentration.C. volatility in market share.
Answer:
B. market concentration
Explanation:
The answer is that greater pricing power is most likely to result from greater market concentration because this means that there are few competitors in the market which allows to have more power to establish prices.
The other options are not right because unused capacity indicates that there is a lot of competition in the market which doesn't allow to have the power to establish prices and volatility in market share means that there is not a firm position in the market that allows to have greater pricing power.
The labor cost to produce a certain item is $8.50 per hour. Job setup costs $50 and material costs are $20 per unit. The item can be purchased for $88.50 per unit. The learning rate is 90 percent. Overhead is charged at a rate of 50 percent of labor, materials, and setup costs.
Required:
a. Determine the average unit cost for 20 units, given that the first unit took 5 hours to complete.
b. What is the minimum production quantity necessary to make production cost less than purchase cost?
Answer:
Explanation:
Given
Setup cost =$50
Material cost = $20
= $20×$20
= $400
Purchased cost = $88.50
Learning rate (P) = 90%
Labor cost is $8.50, and it requires 5 hours to produce the first unit. Total time required for the production of 20 units is
= 5×14.608
= $73.04
The value 14.608 is the total time factor which has been taken from table 7S.1 and the time required for the production of 20 units at the rate of 90% is 14.608. Hence, the labor cost for the production of 20 units will be calculated using the following method.
Cost of labor for production of 20 units
= 8.50×73.04
= $620.84
Hence,
In the problem, it has been given that the overhead cost is 50% of the labor material, and setup cost. Hence,
= 50/100 (620.84+50+400)
= 0.5×(1070.84)
= $535.42
Hence total cost
$535.42 +$1070.84
=$ 1606.26
Hence, the cost of production of 20 units is calculated by the following method.
= $1606.26÷20
=$80.313
Therefore, the unit cost is $80.313/unit.
Ans B:
The minimum production quantity important to make the production cost less than the purchase cost is calculated by the trial-and-error method. Now, let's take average unit cost when the 10 units are produced.
Setup cost =$50
Material cost = $20
= $20×$10
= $200
Labor cost is $8.50, and it requires 5 hours to produce the first unit. Total time required for the production of 10 units is
=5×7.994
= $39.97
The value 7.994 is the total time factor which has been taken from table 7S.1 and the time required for the production of 10 units at the rate of 90% is 7.994. Therefore, the labor cost for the production of 10 units will be calculated by the following method.
The cost of production of 20units
8.50×7.994×5
= $339.745

The rate of economic growth per capita in France from 1996 to 2000 was 1.9% per year, while in Korea over the same period it was 4.2%. Per capita real GDP was $28,900 in France in 2003, and $12,700 in Korea. Assume the growth rates for each country remain the same. 1. Compute the doubling time for France’s per capita real GDP. Use the rule of 72. 2. Compute the doubling time for Korea’s per capita real GDP. Use the rule of 72. 3. What will France’s per capita real GDP be in 2045? 4. What will Korea’s per capita real GDP be in 2045?
Answer and Explanation:
The rule of 72 refers the time period in which your investment which you invest should be doubled
So based on the rule of 72, the computation is shown below:
1. doubling time for France per capita real GDP is
= Rule of 72 ÷ rate
= 72 ÷ 1.9
= 37.89 years
2. Doubling time for Korea per capita real GDP is
= Rule of 72 ÷ rate
= 72 ÷ 4.2
= 17.14 years
3. France per capita real GDP in year 2045 is
= Per capita read GDP × (1 + growth rate)^time period
= $28,900 × 1.019^42
= $63,710.88
4. Korea per capita real GDP in year 2045 is
= Per capita read GDP × (1 + growth rate)^time period
= $12,700 × 1.042^42
= $71,490.43
The time period 42 comes from
= 2045 - 2003
= 42 years
"A customer has an existing short margin account with credits of $16,000 and a short position in ABC stock worth $10,000. The SMA in the account is $1,000. If the market value of ABC falls to $9,000, the equity is:"
Answer:
Equity= $7,000
Explanation:
A customer has an existing short margin account that contains credit of $16,000
The short position in ABC stock is worth $10,000
The SMA in the account is $1,000
Therefore, if the market value of ABC falls down to $9,000 then, the equity can be calculated as follows
Equity= $16,000-$9,000
=$7,000
Hence the equity is $7,000
BankMart Inc. recently issued bonds that mature in 9 years. They have a par value of $1,000 and an annual coupon of 3%. The current market interest rate is 8%.What should be the bond's price?
Answer:
Price of Bond = $687.66
Explanation:
The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).
Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV
The value of bond for Bank Mart Inc can be worked out as follows:
Step 1
Calculate the PV of interest payments
Annual interest payment
= 3%× 1000 = 30
PV of interest payment
PV = A× (1- 1+r)^(-n)
A- 30, r- 8%, n- 9
30× ((1-1.08^(-9))/0.08)=187.41
Step 2
PV of redemption Value
PV = RV × (1+r)^(-n)
RV - 1000, r- 8%, n- 9
PV of RV = 1000 × 1.08^(-9) = 500.24
Step 3
Price of bond
Total PV = 187.41 + 500.24 = $687.66
Price of Bond = $687.66
