Suppose that XTel currently is selling at $40 per share. You buy 500 shares using $15,000 of your own money, borrowing the remainder of the purchase price from your broker. The rate on the margin loan is 8%. a. What is the percentage increase in the net worth of your brokerage account if the price of XTel immediately changes to (a) $44; (b) $40; (c) $36? (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Negative values should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Explanation:
a. What is the percentage increase in the net worth of your brokerage account if the price of XTel immediately changes to $44?
Total investment will be:
= 500 shares x $40 = $20,000
The Initial Net Worth =$15,000
Borrowed Amount = $20,000 - $15,000 = $5,000
New Net worth will be:
= $44 x 500 shares - 5000
= $22,000 - $5000
= $17,000
Percentage increase will be:
= [($17,000 - $15,000)/$15,000] × 100
= $2000/$15000 × 100
= 13.33%
b. What is the percentage increase in the net worth of your brokerage account if the price of XTel immediately changes to $40?
Total investment will be:
= 500 shares x $40 = $20,000
The Initial Net Worth =$15,000
Borrowed Amount = $20,000 - $15,000 = $5,000
New Net worth will be:
= $40 x 500 shares - 5000
= $20,000 - $5000
= $15,000
Percentage increase will be:
= [($15,000 - $15,000)/$15,000] × 100
= 0/$15000 × 100
= 0
c. What is the percentage increase in the net worth of your brokerage account if the price of XTel immediately changes to $36?
Total investment will be:
= 500 shares x $40 = $20,000
The Initial Net Worth =$15,000
Borrowed Amount = $20,000 - $15,000 = $5,000
New Net worth will be:
= $36 x 500 shares - 5000
= $18,000 - $5000
= $13,000
Percentage increase will be:
= [($13,000 - $15,000)/$15,000] × 100
= -$2000/$15000 × 100
= -13.33%

Consider a profit-maximizing firm in a competitive industry. Under which of the following situations would the firm choose to produce where MR= MC?
Yes?/No? Minimum AVC < Price < minimum ATC.
Yes?/No? Price > minimum ATC.
Yes?/No? Price < minimum AVC
Answer:
The answer is given below
Explanation:
A firm maximizes profit to produce where the marginal revenue is equal to the marginal cost provided that the price of the product is greater or equal to the average variable cost (AVC)
i) Minimum AVC < Price < minimum ATC
Id the price is greater than the minimum average variable cost (AVC) and less than the minimum average total cost (ATC), the firm would produce only for the short run making small losses.
ii) Price > minimum ATC.
Yes the firm should produce when Price > minimum ATC.
iii) Price < minimum AVC
When Price < minimum AVC, the firms should stop producing and shut down because it cannot cover its variable cost.

Oct. 1 Beginning inventory 60 $24
Oct. 9 Purchase 125 26
Oct. 11 Sale 107 37
Oct. 17 Purchase 94 27
Oct. 22 Sale 64 42
Oct. 25 Purchase 71 29
Oct. 29 Sale 104 42
Required:
a. Calculate the weighted-average cost.
b. Calculate ending inventory, cost of goods sold, gross profit under each of the following methods.
1. LIFO
2. FIFO
3. Avergae Cost
Answer:
Bridgeport Corp.
a. Weighted-average cost:
Weighted average cost = Cost of goods available for sale = $9,287
b. Ending inventory, cost of goods sold, gross profit under:
1. LIFO:
a) Ending Inventory = 75 units
Oct. 1 Beginning inventory 60 at $24 = $1,440
Oct. 9 Purchase 15 at $26 = 390
Total 75 = $1,830
b) Cost of goods sold = Cost of goods available for sale minus the ending inventory
= $9,287 - $1,830
= $7,457
c) Gross profit = Sales minus Cost of goods sold
= $11,015 - $7,457
= $3,558
2. FIFO:
a) Ending Inventory = 75 units
Oct. 17 Purchase 4 at $27 = $108
Oct. 25 Purchase 71 at $29 = 2,059
Ending Inventory 75 $2,167
b) Cost of goods sold = Cost of goods available for minus Ending Inventory
= $9,287 - $2,167
= $7,120
c) Gross profit = Sales minus Cost of goods sold
= $11,015 - $7,120
= $3,895
3. Average Cost:
a) Ending Inventory = 75 units
= Ending Inventory units x Weighted-Average cost
= 75 x $26.53 = $1,989.75
b) Cost of goods sold = units sold x weighted-average cost
= 275 x $26.53
= $7,295.75
c) Gross profit = Sales minus Cost of goods sold
= $11,015 - $7,295.75
= $3,719.25
Explanation:
a) Data and calculations:
Date Description Units Unit Cost Selling Price Total
Oct. 1 Beginning inventory 60 $24 $1,440
Oct. 9 Purchase 125 26 3,250
Oct. 11 Sale (107) $37 $3,959
Oct. 17 Purchase 94 27 2,538
Oct. 22 Sale (64) 42 2,688
Oct. 25 Purchase 71 29 2,059
Oct. 29 Sale (104) 42 4,368
Total 350 (275) $9,287 $11,015
Ending inventory in units = 350 - 275 = 75
Weighted average cost = $9,287
Weighted average cost per unit = $9,287/350 = $26.53
b) The LIFO is the Last-in, First-Out method of inventory costing which assumes that units bought last are the units to be sold first.
c) FIFO means the First-in, First-Out method of inventory costing. This takes the assumption that units bought first are the units to be sold first in that chronological order.
d) Weighted average method of inventory costing takes the weighted average cost and uses this to value the ending inventory and the cost of goods sold.
e) The periodic inventory system does not alter the value of inventory until at the end of the accounting period when the inventory count is done, reconciled, and valued.

Bach Instruments Inc. makes three musical instruments: flutes, clarinets, and oboes. The budgeted factory overhead cost is $2,948,125. Overhead is allocated to the three products on the basis of direct labor hours. The products have the following budgeted production volume and direct labor hours per unit: Budgeted Production Volume Direct Labor Hours Per Unit Flutes 2,000 units 2.0 Clarinets 1,500 3.0 Oboes 1,750 1.5 a. Determine the single plantwide overhead rate.
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $391.78 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Budgeted factory overhead= $2,948,125.
Direct labor hours:
Flutes= 2,000*2= 4,000
Clarinets= 1,500*3= 4,500
Oboes= 1,750*1.5= 2,625
Total direct labor hours= 7,525
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 2,948,125/7,525
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $391.78 per direct labor hour
Rhiannon Corporation has bonds on the market with 12.5 years to maturity, a YTM of 7.3 percent, a par value of $1,000, and a current price of $1,057. The bonds make semiannual payments. What must the coupon rate be on these bonds
Answer:
The coupon rate be on these bonds is 8%
Explanation:
The coupon payment is the periodic payment made using the coupon rate and face value of the bond.
Use follwing formula to calculate the coupon payment
Price of the bond = C x ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n / r ) + F / ( 1 + r )^n
r = YTM = 7.3% /2 = 3.65%
n = numbers of periods = 12.5 years x 2 = 25 periods
F = Face value = $1,000
Price of the bond = $1,057
C = ?
$1,057 = C x ( 1 - ( 1 + 3.65% )^-25 / 3.65% ) + $1,000 / ( 1 + 3.65% )^25
$1,057 = C x 16.22 + $408.10
$1,057 - 408.10 = C x 16.22
648.90 / 16.22 = C
C = $40 semiannually
C = $40 x 2 = $80 annually
Coupon rate = $80 / $1,000 = 0.08 = 8%

What is the annual percentage rate on a loan with a stated rate of 2.75 percent per quarter?A. 11.00 percentB. 11.09 percentC. 11.18 percentD. 11.27 percentE. 11.31 percent
Answer:
A. 11.00 percent
Explanation:
The computation of the annual percentage rate is shown below:-
Annual percentage rate = Percentage of stated rate × Number of quarters per year
= 2.75% × 4
= 11%
Therefore for computing the annual percentage rate we simply applied the above formula i.e multiplying the percentage of the stated rate with the number of quarters in a year
So, the correct option is A.
The annual percentage rate on a loan with a stated rate of 2.75 percent per quarter is 11.27 percent.
To calculate the annual percentage rate (APR) on a loan with a stated rate of 2.75 percent per quarter, we need to use the following formula: APR = (1 + periodic interest rate)^n - 1. Here, the periodic interest rate is 2.75 percent, and n is the number of compounding periods in a year, which is 4. Substituting these values into the formula, we get: APR = (1 + 0.0275)^4 - 1 = 0.1127 or 11.27%. Therefore, the annual percentage rate on the loan is 11.27 percent.

Suppose you purchased 100 shares of stock in 2010 for $20 a share, and the price now is $30 a share. If you sell the stock, then your capital gain is:__________.A. $3,000.B. $1,500.C. $1,000.D. indeterminate without knowing the inflation rate.
Answer:
Option D is correct
Explanation:
The cost of purchasing the 100 shares was $20 per share, in other words, the total amount paid for the stock acquisition is $2,000($20*100).
However, the later shares were sold for $3,000($30*100), which means that capital gain is the difference between the sales value and the acquisition value.
Capital gain=$3,000-$2,000=$1000
The correct option is D
You are given a loan on which interest is charged over a 4-year period, as follows: an effective rate of discount of 6% for first year; a nominal rate of discount of 5% compounded every 2 years for the second year; a nominal rate of interest of 5% compounded semiannually for the third year; and a force of interest of 5% for the fourth year. Calculate the annual effective rate of interest over the 4-year period.
Answer:
The annual effective rate of interest over the 4-year period is 0.0549
Explanation:
In order to calculate the annual effective rate of interest over the 4-year period we would have to make the following calculation:
(1+i)∧4=(1-nominal rate discount)∧-1*(1-nominal rate discount/1/2)∧-1/2*(1+nominal rate discount/2)∧e∧0.05
(1+i)∧4=(1-0.06)∧-1*(1-0.05/1/2)∧-1/2*(1+0.05/2)∧e∧0.05
(1+i)∧4=1.2385
Therefore, if (1+i)∧4=1.2385, i=0.0549
The annual effective rate of interest over the 4-year period is 0.0549

Equipment maintenance costs for manufacturing explosion-proof pressure switches are projected to be $125,000 in year 1 and increase by 4% each year through year 5. What is the equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs at an interest rate of 10% per year, compounded semiannually
Answer:
The equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs at an interest rate of 10% per year, compounded semiannually is $127,432
Explanation:
In order to calculate the equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs at an interest rate of 10% per year, compounded semiannually we would have to calculate the following formula:
equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs= P(i(1+i)∧n/(1+i)∧n-1
The rate of interest i would be as follows:
rate of interest i=(1+10%/2)-1
rate of interest i=0.1025*100
rate of interest i=10.25%
The present value P would be calculated as follows:
present value P=$125,000(1-(1+1/100)∧5 (1+10.25/100)∧-5/(10.25/100-1/100)
present value P=$125,000*3.84
present value P=$480,000
Therefore,
equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs=$480,000*(10.25/100 (1+10.25/100)∧5/(1+10.25/100)∧5-1)
equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs=$480,000*0.2654
equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs=$127,432
The equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs at an interest rate of 10% per year, compounded semiannually is $127,432
