Michael owns a machine shop. In reviewing the shop's utility bills for the past 12 months, he found that the highest bill of $2,400 occurred in August when the machines worked 1,000 machine hours. The lowest utility bill of $2,200 occurred in December when the machines worked 500 machine hours.
Requirement:
1. Calculate the variable rate per machine hour and the total fixed utility cost.
2. Show the equation for determining total utility cost for the machine shop.
3. If Matt anticipates using 1, 200 machine hours in January, predict the shop's total utility bill using the equation from Requirement 2.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Highest cost= $2,400 when the machines worked 1,000 machine hours.

Lowest cost= $2,200 when the machines worked 500 machine hours.

To calculate the variable cost per unit and total fixed costs, we need to use the following formulas:

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (2,400 - 2,200) / (1,000 - 500)

Variable cost per unit= $0.4 per hour

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= 2,400 - (0.4*1,000)= $2,000

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Fixed costs= 2,200 - (0.4*500)= $2,000

Total cost= 2,000 + 0.4x

x= machine hour

Finally, the total cost for 1,200 machine hours:

Total cost= 2,000 + 0.4*1,200

Total cost= $2,480

XYZ stock is trading at $25.75 and XYZ Jul 25 calls are trading at a premium of $2. What is the time value of the Jul 25 calls

Answers

Answer:

$125

Explanation:

Time value = Premium - Intrinsic value

Premium. = 2 or $200 i.e 2×100

Intrinsic value = 75

= $200 - $75

= $125

The time value of the Jul 25 calls will be $125.

It should be noted that the time value is simply the difference that exist between the premium and the intrinsic value. In this case, the time value will be:

= $200 - $75

= $125

The premium is gotten as 2 × 100 = $200.

Therefore, the time value of the Jul 25 calls will be $125.

You take out a loan for $4000 at an annual interest rate of 5% (compounded annually). You must pay back the loan in 3 annual installments. How much of the principal is still outstanding after you make the first payment? g

Answers

Answer: = $2,731.14

Explanation:

First find the annual payment.

The payment will be constant so is an annuity.

Present Value of an Annuity = Payment * Present Value Interest Factor of an annuity

4,000 = Payment * PVIFA( 3 periods, 5%)

4,000 = Payment * 2.7232

Payment = 4,000 / 2.7232

Payment = $1,468.86

This annual Payment is divided into an interest component and a component going towards principal repayment.

Interest component =  5% * 4,000

= $200

Amount going to principal = 1,468.86 - 200

= $1,268.86

Amount of Principal Outstanding = 4,000 - 1,268.86

= $2,731.14

Storico Co. just paid a dividend of $2.05 per share. The company will increase its dividend by 24 percent next year and then reduce its dividend growth rate by 6 percentage points per year until it reaches the industry average of 6 percent dividend growth, after which the company will keep a constant growth rate forever. If the required return on the company's stock is 10 percent, what will a share of stock sell for today

Answers

Answer:

A share of stock sell for $74.21 today.

Explanation:

This can be calculated as follows:

Dividend per share in year 1 = Year 0 dividend * (1 + growth rate of year 1 dividend) = $2.05 * (1 + 24%) = $2.5420

PV of year 1 dividend per share = Year 1 dividend / (1 + rate of return)^1 = $2.5420 * / (1 + 10%)^1 = $2.31090909090909

Dividend per share in year 2 = Year 1 dividend * (1 + growth rate of year 1 dividend) = $2.5420 * (1 + (24% -6%)) = $2.5420 * (1 + 18%) =$3.00

PV of year 2 dividend per share = Year 2 dividend / (1 + rate of return)^2 = $3.00 / (1 + 10%)^2 = $2.47933884297521

Dividend per share in year 3 = Year 2 dividend * (1 + growth rate of year 2 dividend) = $3.00 * (1 + (18% -6%)) = $3.00 * (1 + 12%) =$3.36

PV of year 3 dividend per share = Year 3 dividend / (1 + rate of return)^3 = $3.36 / (1 + 10%)^3 = $2.5244177310293

Dividend per share in year 4 = Year 3 dividend * (1 + growth rate of year 3 dividend) = $3.36 * (1 + (12% -6%)) = $3.36 * (1 + 6%) =$3.5616

PV of year 4 dividend per share = Year 4 dividend / (1 + rate of return)^4 = $3.5616 / (1 + 10%)^4 = $2.43262072262824

Dividend per share in year 5 = Year 4 dividend * (1 + growth rate of year 4 dividend) = $3.5616 * (1 + 6%) = $3.775296

Price at year 4 = Year 5 dividend / (Rate of return – growth rate) = $3.775296 / (10% - 6%) = $94.3824

PV of price at year 4 = Price at year 4 / (1 + rate of return)^4 = $94.3824 / (1 + 10%)^4 = $64.4644491496482

Share price to day = PV of year 1 dividend per share + PV of year 2 dividend per share + PV of year 4 dividend per share + PV of year 4 dividend per share + PV of price at year 4 = $2.31090909090909 + $2.47933884297521 + $2.5244177310293 + $2.43262072262824 + $64.4644491496482 = $74.21

The calculated cost of trade credit for a firm that buys on terms of 2/10, net 30, is lower (other things held constant) if the firm plans to pay in 40 days than in 30 days.
A. True
B. False

Answers

Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

The terms of 2/10, net 30 implies that the firm is entitled to receive a 2 percent discount if it makes payment within 10 days for the goods it bought on term but the seller expects to pay full amount of the amount due in 30 days if it fails to pay within 10 days.

However, since there will be no more discount after the discount period, the cost of trade credit will continue to fall longer the payment is extended. For this question this can be demonstrated using the formula for calculating the cost of trade discount as follows:

Cost of trade discount = {[1 + (discount rate / (1 - discount rate))]^(365/days after discount)} - 1 ................... (1)

We can now applying equation (1) as follows:

For payment in 40 days

Cost of trade credit (payment in 40 days)= {[1 + (0.02 / (1 - 0.02))]^(365/40)} - 1 = 0.202436246672765, or 20%

For payment in 30 days

Cost of trade credit (payment in 30 days) = {[1 + (0.02 / (1 - 0.02))]^(365/30)} - 1 = 0.278643315029666, or 28%

Conclusion

Since the 20% calculated cost of trade credit for payment in 40 days is lower than 28% calculated cost of trade credit for payment in 30 days, the correct option is A. True. That is, the calculated cost of trade credit for a firm that buys on terms of 2/10, net 30, is lower (other things held constant) if the firm plans to pay in 40 days than in 30 days.

A stock has an expected return of 12.6 percent, the risk-free rate is 7 percent, and the market risk premium is 10 percent. What must the beta of this stock be

Answers

Answer:

0.56

Explanation:

In this question we used the Capital Asset Pricing Model formula i.e shown below:

As we know that

Expected rate of return = Risk free rate of return + Beta × market risk premium

12.6% = 7% + Beta × 10%

12.6% - 7% = Beta × 10%

5.6% = Beta × 10%

So, the beta is

= 5.6% ÷ 10%

= 0.56

Hence, the beta of the stock is 0.56

The stock of Wiley United has a beta of 1. The market risk premium is 11.5 percent and the risk-free rate is 2.3 percent. What is the expected return on this stock in percent

Answers

Answer:

9.41%

Explanation:

Wiley United has a beta of 1

The market risk premium 11.5%

= 11.5/100

=0.115

Risk free rate is 2.3%

= 2.3/100

= 0.023

Therefore the expected rate of return can be calculated as follows

Expected rate of return= Risk free rate+beta(market return-risk free rate)

= 0.023+1(0.115-0.023)

= 1.023(0.092)

= 0.0941×100

=9.41%

Hence the expected return on the stock is 9.41%

The next dividend payment by Savitz, Inc., will be $2.12 per share. The dividends are anticipated to maintain a growth rate of 8 percent forever. If the stock currently sells for $43 per share, what is the required return?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 12.9%

Explanation:

This question will be solved using the Dividend Discount Model(DDM).

Po = D1/r - g

Po is the current worth of stocks

D1 is the next dividend paid

r is the rate of return

g is the growth rate

$43 = $2.12/ r - 0.08

43r - 3.44 = 2.12

43r = 5.56

r = 5.56/43

=0.129

Expressed as a percentage:

The required return for Savitz, Inc., is therefore 12.9%

Firm Y has issued 500 million shares of stock at $1 par value and $200 millino in additional paid in capital. Retained earnings are $5.6 billion. What is the return on equity if net income if net income is $1.1 billion?

Answers

Answer:

Return on equity = 17.46%

Explanation:

DATA:

Issued share capital = $500m

Additional Paid-in capital = $200 million

Retained Earnings = $5.6 billion

Net Income = $1.1 billion

Return on Equity = ?

Solution

Return on equity can be calculated by dividing net income in total shareholder's equity

NOTE: ALL THE WORKINGS ARE IN 1000's

Return on equity = Net Income / Shareholder's Equity

Return on equity = 1,100,000 / (500,000 + 200,000 +5,600,000)

Return on equity = $1,100,000/6,300,000

Return on equity = 17.46%

When all firms earn zero economic profits producing the output level where P=MR=MC and P=AC and there is no incentive to leave or join the market, the market is in __________.

Answers

Answer:

Long-run equilibrium.

Explanation:

When all firms earn zero economic profits producing the output level where P=MR=MC and P=AC and there is no incentive to leave or join the market, the market is in long-run equilibrium.

In a perfectly competitive market in long-run equilibrium, a long-run equilibrium avails firms the opportunity to adjust all inputs and all fixed costs are maximized. Also, it's characterized by free entry and exit, as such there isn't a fixed number of firms. This simply means that, since the number of firms in a long-run equilibrium can change, a firm must exit the market as a result of losses i.e when the firm is unable to cover its fixed costs in the long-run while new firms are allowed entry into the market when it anticipates potential profits or gains.

However, the firms always strive to maximize profits by increasing their level of output, such that P = MC. Also, the firms wouldn't be willing to leave or enter into the market because they are not making any profit, such that P=AC.

In a nutshell, in the long run equilibrium P=MR=MC and P=AC.

Where, P represents the price.

Answer:

The correct answer is: long-run equilibrium.

Explanation:

To begin with, the market that is refered in the question is a perfect competitive one, you can tell by the fact that the price equals the marginal revenue(MR) and that equals the marginal costs(MC) and also the price equals the average cost and that combination only happens in the competitive market and therefore that the relationship established happen when that industry is in the long run equilibrium and there is no incentive to leave or join the market.

Total liabilities Total stockholders' equity Debt to equity ratio

Answers

Answer: 1.5

Explanation:

The debt to equity ratio will be calculated as total liabilities divided by the total equities.

The total liabilities is the sum of the total current liabilities and the long term liabilities. This will be:

= 38420 + 179,530

= $217950

Total equities will be the difference between the total assets and total liabilities. This will be:

Total asset = 264,350 + 36,800 + 62,100

= $363,250

Total equity = total asset - total liability

= $363,250 - $217,950

= $145,300

Debt to equity ratio = total liabilities/total equity

= 217950/145,300

= 1.5

Suppose 1-year T-bills currently yield 7.00% and the future inflation rate is expected to be constant at 4.70% per year. What is the real risk-free rate of return, r*

Answers

Answer:

2.30%

Explanation:

Data has given as:

Yield for 1 year T-bill = 7.00%

Future inflation rate = 4.7%

In order to find the risk-free rate of return we need to deduct future inflation rate from the yield for the year

Risk-free Rate of return = 1 year T-bill yield - inflation

Risk-free Rate of return = 7.00% - 4.70%

Risk-free Rate of return = 2.30%

The nominal interest rate in Fiji is 3%, while the nominal interest rate in the U.S. is 5%. Real interest rates in both countries are 2%. According to purchasing power parity (PPP), the Fijian dollar (F$) may be expected to ________ by ________%.

1.98%

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:-

As we know that

PPP equation i.e

Nominal Interest rate = Real interest rate + Inflation rate

Now

The Inflation rate for Fiji is

= 5% - 2%

= 3%

And, the Inflation rate for US is

= 3% - 2%

= 1%

As we can see that the inflation rate for Fiji is more than the inflation rate for US so we should be depreciated the currency by considering the inflation differential which is shown below:

= (1 + 3%) ÷ (1 + 1%) -1

= 1.98%

If the WACC is greater than 14%, Project A's IRR will exceed Project B's. c. If the WACC is 13%, Project A's NPV will be higher than Project B's. d. If the WACC is 9%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's. e. If the WACC is 6%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's.

Answers

Answer:

d. If the WACC is 9%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's.

Explanation:

The internal rate of return is the return in which the NPV is zero i.e cash inflows equal to the initial investment

While the WACC refers to the cost of capital by considering the capital structure i.e cost of equity, cost of preferred stock and cost of debt by taking their weightage

Now if the WACC is 9% so project B NPV would be higher as compared to project A as we can see that project B IRR is greater than the project A IRR

Therefore option d is correct

   Cash                                                                                        $22,000

Being semi-annual interest payment on bonds

Explanation:

The semi-interest payment on the bonds equals

Coupon rate × par Value × 1/2

Semi-annual interest payment = 8%× 550,000 × 1/2=22,000

Semi- annual payment = $22,000

The accounting entry to record the interest payment each time payment is made would be:

                                                               Debit                             Credit

Bond Interest Expense                        $22,000

   Cash                                                                                        $22,000

Being semi-annual interest payment on bonds

Note that interest payment is an expense, hence to increase an expense the expense account is debit. On the other hand. the interest payment is a cash outflow, which reduces the cash asset, hence the cash account is credited.

What is the aftertax cost of debt?

Answers

Answer:

1. 8.41 %

2.4.62 %

Explanation:

Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is the cost of capital for all company projects.It shows  the risk of the company.

WACC = Ke×(E/V) + Kp×(P/V) + Kd×(D/V)

           = 0.10 × 70% + 0.05 × 5% + 0.06 × 77%× 25%

           = 8.405 or 8.41 %

After tax cost of debt = Market Interest × ( 1 - tax rate)

                                   = 0.06 × (1 - 0.23)

                                   =  4.62 %

Aspin Corporation’s charter authorizes issuance of

2,000,000 shares of common stock. Currently, 1,400,000 shares are outstand-
ing, and 100,000 shares are being held as treasury stock. The firm wishes to

raise $48,000,000 for a plant expansion. Discussions with its investment bankers
indicate that the sale of new common stock will net the firm $60 per share.​

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The calculation of the sale of new common stock is shown below:-

a. Not issued = Authorized shares - Outstanding shares - Treasury stock

= 2,000,000 - 1,400,000 + 100,000

= 500,000

Now

Maximum shares = Not issued + Treasury stock

= 500,000 + 100,000

= 600,000

b. Since if we find out the number of shares that should be issued is

= $48,000,000 ÷ $60 per share

= 800,000

But the maximum shares is 600,000 so this shares would only be issued upto this limit only

Therefore the funds should not be raised

c.  Now The firm could also develop extra 200,000 shares together it get amortized also.

Hence, it can sell 800,000 shares and the amount could rise to $48,000,000

Answers

Answer:

Suggestion 1: Not Recommended

Hence it is not recommended.

Background information: In this speech by President Carter on Afghanistan, he mentions the SALT treaties. The Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT) were two rounds of joint talks between the United States and the USSR in which they reached an agreement to reduce the number of weapons each country had. The world simply cannot stand by and permit the Soviet Union to commit this act with impunity. Fifty nations have petitioned the United Nations Security Council to condemn the Soviet Union and to demand the immediate withdrawal of all Soviet troops from Afghanistan. . . . The successful negotiation of the SALT II treaty has been a major goal and a major achievement of this administration, and we Americans, the people of the Soviet Union, and indeed the entire world will benefit from the successful control of strategic nuclear weapons through the implementation of this carefully negotiated treaty. However, because of the Soviet aggression, I have asked the United States Senate to defer further consideration of the SALT II treaty so that the Congress and I can assess Soviet actions and intentions. . . . US President Jimmy Carter, 1980 Why does President Carter state that the US Congress will wait to pass the SALT II treaty? He believes that the USSR will use nuclear weapons against the United States. He believes that the USSR will use nuclear weapons against the Middle East.
