Answer:
Bond Price or Present value = $23021820.4557 rounded off to $23021820
Explanation:
To calculate the quote/price of the bond today, the present value, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. As the bond is a semi annual bond, the semi coupon payment, semi annual number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,
Coupon Payment (C) = 25000000 * 0.07 * 6/12 = $875000
Total periods (n) = 5 * 2 = 10
r or YTM = 0.09 * 6/12 = 0.045 or 4.5%
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
Bond Price = 875000 * [( 1 - (1+0.045)^-10) / 0.045] +
25000000 / (1+0.045)^10
Bond Price or Present value = $23021820.4557 rounded off to $23021820

CDF Inc. is contemplating the acquisition of Pogo Company. The values of the two companies as separate entities are $20 million and $10 million, respectively. CDF estimates that by combining the two companies, it will reduce marketing and administrative costs by $500,000 per year in perpetuity. CDF can either pay $14 million cash for Pogo or offer Pogo a 55% holding in CDF. If the opportunity cost of capital is 10%,a. What is the gain from merger? b. What is the cost of the cash offer? c. What is the cost of the sock alternative? d. What is the NPV of the acquisition under the cash offer? e. What is the NPV under the stock offer?
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. What is the gain from merger?
This will be calculated by dividing the cost savings by the opportunity cost of capital. This will be:
= $500,000 / 10%
= $500,000 / 0.1
= $5,000,000
= $5 million
b. What is the cost of the cash offer?
This will be the difference between the cash cash paid and the value of the firm acquired which will be:
= $14 million - $10 million
= $4 million
c. What is the cost of the sock alternative?
First, we calculate the value of the merged company which will be:
= $20 million + $10 million + $5 million
= $35 million
Then, cost of stock alternative will be:
= (35 million x 55%) – $10 million
= ($35 million × 0.55) - $10 million
= $19.25 million - $10 million
= $9.25 million
d. What is the NPV of the acquisition under the cash offer?
This will be:
= $5 million - $4 million
= $1 million
e. What is the NPV under the stock offer?
This will be:
= $5 million - $9.25 million
= -$4.25 million
Album Co. issued 10-year $200,000 debenture bonds on January 2. The bonds pay interest semiannually. Album uses the effective interest method to amortize bond premiums and discounts. The carrying value of the bonds on January 2 was $185,953. A journal entry was recorded for the first interest payment on June 30, debiting interest expense for $13,016 and crediting cash for $12,000. What is the annual stated interest rate for the debenture bonds
Answer: 12%
Explanation:
Stated interest rate is used in the calculation of the annual interest payment.
Interest payment = Face value of bonds * Stated interest rate
Annual Interest payment = Semi annual interest payment * 2
= 12,000 * 2
= $24,000
24,000 = 200,000 * Stated interest
Stated interest = 24,000 / 200,000
= 0.12
= 12%
Aggies Candle Factory has recently been awarded a new contract with a large retailor in Doylestown. Demand for the candles is 25,0000 which a larger order than the company has ever handled before. They have called a business strategy meeting to ensure success of this project.; the Operations Manager has presented two different manufacturing options for consideration by the board:
Option A is highly automated with fixed costs of $25,000 and variable costs of $.1/candle.
Option B uses hand labor with fixed costs of $10,000 and variable costs of $.5/candle.
Which option should the board select and why?
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
From the question, the demand given is 250,000
For Option A,
Fixed cost = $25000
Variable cost = $0.1 per candle
Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost
Total cost = $25000 + ($0.1 × 250,000)
= $25,000 + $25,000
= $50,000
For Option B,
Fixed cost = $10000,
Variable cost = $0.5 per candle
Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost
Total cost = $10000 + ($0.5 × 250,000)
= $10,000 + $125,000
= $135,000
Therefore, the board should select option A as the total cost is cheaper than option B.
Kingston Company, which needs 10,000 units of a certain part to be used in its production cycle, can make or buy the part. If Kingston buys the part from Utica Company, Kingston could not use the released facilities in another manufacturing activity within the coming year. 60% of the fixed overhead applied will continue regardless of which decision option is chosen. The following per-unit cost information to make the part by Kingston is available: Direct materials $ 37 Direct labor 148 Variable overhead 74 Fixed overhead applied 93 $ 352 Cost to buy the part from Utica Company $ 85 In deciding whether to make or buy the part, Kingston's total relevant cost to make the part would be:
Answer: $2,962,000
Explanation:
60% of the fixed overhead cannot be avoided which means that only 40% can be avoided. This is the amount to include in the analysis.
To make 10,000 units, the cost would be:
= Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable Overhead + Fixed overhead applied
= (10,000 * 37) + ( 10,000 * 148) + (10,000 * 74) + (10,000 * 93 * 40%)
= 370,000 + 1,480,000 + 740,000 + 372,000
= $2,962,000

The market equilibrium quantity without the $1.50 excise tax is ______________ units. The market equilibrium quantity with the $1.50 excise tax is ______________ units. The change in equilibrium quantity due to the $1.50 excise tax is ______________ units. (Note: Red colored supply curve should be Qs with no tax and Green supply curve is Qs with tax. Error below in labeling)
Answer:
Equilibrium quantity without excise tax is 130 units.
Equilibrium quantity with excise tax is 110 units.
The change in equilibrium quantity is 20 units decrease due to excise tax.
Explanation:
The quantity demanded without tax is 130 units because this is equilibrium point where quantity supplied equals to quantity demanded. The quantity demanded with tax is 110 units because the price will increase by $1.50 due to excise tax. The new price would be $4.50 after excise tax so the quantity will be declined to 110 units.

Crich Corporation uses direct labor-hours in its predetermined overhead rate. At the beginning of the year, the estimated direct labor-hours were 21,800 hours and the total estimated manufacturing overhead was $497,040. At the end of the year, actual direct labor-hours for the year were 21,500 hours and the actual manufacturing overhead for the year was $492,040. Overhead at the end of the year was: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Underapplied overhead= $1,640
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 497,040 / 21,800
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $22.8 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 22.8*21,500
Allocated MOH= $490,200
Finally, the over/under allocation:
Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead
Under/over applied overhead= 492,040 - 490,200
Underapplied overhead= $1,640

Taco Ranch uses a process cost system and the FIFO cost flow assumption. Production begins in the crafting department where materials are added at the beginning of the process and conversion costs are incurred uniformly throughout the process. On November 1st, the beginning work in process inventory consisted of 10,000 units which were 60% complete and had a cost of $190,000, $100,000 of which were material costs. During November, the following occured:
Materials added $225,000
Conversion costs incurred $45,000
Units completed and transferred out in November $40,000
Units in ending work in process November 30 (20% complete) $25,000
1. What are the equivalent units of production for materials and conversion costs in the Crafting Department for the month of November?
2. What are the costs assigned to the ending work in process inventory on November 30?
3. What are the costs assigned to units completed and transferred out during November?
Answer:
no puedo tengo fuboll
Explanation:
Taco Ranch uses a process cost system and the FIFO cost flow assumption.
Equivalent Units for Materials:
Units completed and transferred out during November = 40,000 units
Units in ending work in process (20% complete)
= 25,000 units × 20% = 5,000 equivalent units
Total equivalent units for materials = Units completed and transferred out + Units in ending work in process
Total equivalent units for materials
= 40,000 units + 5,000 equivalent units
Total equivalent units for materials = 45,000 equivalent units
Equivalent Units for Conversion Costs:
Since conversion costs are incurred uniformly throughout the process, the equivalent units for conversion costs are the same as the total equivalent units for materials, which is 45,000 equivalent units.
Costs Assigned to Ending Work in Process Inventory on November 30:
To determine the costs assigned to the ending work in process inventory on November 30, we need to calculate the cost per equivalent unit for materials and conversion costs.
Cost per Equivalent Unit for Materials = Total material costs / Total equivalent units for materials
Cost per Equivalent Unit for Materials = $100,000 / 45,000 equivalent units
Cost per Equivalent Unit for Materials = $2.22 per equivalent unit (rounded to two decimal places)
Cost per Equivalent Unit for Conversion Costs = Total conversion costs / Total equivalent units for conversion costs
Cost per Equivalent Unit for Conversion Costs = $45,000 / 45,000 equivalent units
Cost per Equivalent Unit for Conversion Costs = $1 per equivalent unit
Now, we can calculate the cost assigned to the ending work in process inventory:
Ending Work in Process Inventory Cost = Cost per Equivalent Unit for Materials × Equivalent Units in Ending Work in Process
Ending Work in Process Inventory Cost = $2.22 × 5,000 equivalent units
Ending Work in Process Inventory Cost = $11,100
Costs Assigned to Units Completed and Transferred Out During November:
The costs assigned to units completed and transferred out during November include both material and conversion costs.
Total cost per equivalent unit = Cost per Equivalent Unit for Materials + Cost per Equivalent Unit for Conversion Costs
Total cost per equivalent unit = $2.22 + $1
Total cost per equivalent unit = $3.22
Cost of Units Completed and Transferred Out = Total cost per equivalent unit × Units completed and transferred out during November
Cost of Units Completed and Transferred Out = $3.22 × 40,000 units
Cost of Units Completed and Transferred Out = $128,800
Therefore, the costs assigned to the ending work in process inventory on November 30 is $11,100 and the costs assigned to units completed and transferred out during November is $128,800.

In order to get hired as an assembly line specialist, the applicant will have to show that they can perform their task in less than 5 minutes after 1000 tries. During the interview, the applicant was asked to perform their future job five times. The applicant was able to complete the task in 10.8 minutes and the company was to estimate their learning curve to be 90%. Given this information, how much time will the applicant take to perform the task a 1000th time
Answer:
The Applicant will take 3.78 minutes to perform the task a 1000th time.
Explanation:
The Learning curve is the graphical representation that determines that how much time someone takes to learn a special skill.
The time on the 1,000th applicant can be calculated as follow
[tex]T_{1000}[/tex] = [tex]T_{1}[/tex] x [tex]1000^{((log LCR/log2)}[/tex]
Where
[tex]T_{1}[/tex] = 10.8 minutes
LCR = Learning Curve Rate = 90% = 0.90
[tex]T_{1000}[/tex] = 10.8 minutes
Placing values in the formula
[tex]T_{1000}[/tex] = 10.8 minutes x [tex]1000^{((log 0.90/log2)}[/tex]
[tex]T_{1000}[/tex] = 10.8 minutes x [tex]1000^{(-0.152003093)}[/tex]

Net profit per share=max(53-55,0)-0.80
Net profit per share=0-0.80
Net profit per share=-0.80
Therefore your net profit on the option if Pfizer’s stock price does not change over the life of the option is -0.80
b. Calculation for your net profit on the option if Pfizer’s stock price falls to $50 and you exercise the option
Net profit per share
=max(53-50,0)-0.80
Net profit per share=3-0.80
Net profit per share=2.20
Therefore your net profit on the option if Pfizer’s stock price falls to $50 and you exercise the option is 2.20

why is it difficult to visualize a business entity without external users?
Answer:
Since businesses require an exchange of goods and services, external users must be involved.
Explanation:
A business is an entity set up for the sole purpose of producing goods and services that will be sold to interested buyers for a profit. The producers within an organization cannot consume all that they have produced by themselves. They need others- external users to purchase that which they have made.
In return, they make some profit through the exchange. So, because a business entity does work that requires exchange, there must be external users.
External users must be involved since businesses demand the trade of goods and services. Business decisions are largely influenced by external users.
Who are external users?External users of business transactions are those entities interested in a company's financial results, it includes creditors, suppliers, investors, banks, financial institutions, government along with others.
A business is an entity formed solely for the aim of generating goods and services that will be sold for a profit to interested buyers.
An organization's producers can't consume what they've created on their own. They require external users to purchase what they have created in exchange for profit from the transaction.
Hence, a business entity cannot visualize itself without external users. because a business entity performs work that necessitates interchange, for which external users are required.

This year Don and his son purchased real estate for an investment. The price of the property was $630,000, and the title named Don and his son as joint tenants with the right of survivorship. Don provided $358,000 of the purchase price and his son provided the remaining $272,000. Has Don made a taxable gift and, if so, in what amount
Answer:
$28,000
Explanation:
Calculation for Don taxable gift amount
Taxable gift amount=[$358,000 − ($630,000)/2] − $15,000
Taxable gift amount=[$358,000 −$315,000] − $15,000
Taxable gift amount=$43,000-$15,000
Taxable gift amount=$28,000
Therefore Don has made a taxable gift of the amount of $28,000
Hyperinflations ultimately are the result of excessive growth rates of the money supply; the underlying motive for the excessive money growth rates is frequently a government's: A. desire to increase prices throughout the economy. B. inability to conduct open-market operations. C. need to generate revenue to pay for spending. D. responsibility to increase nominal interest rates by increasing expected inflation.
Answer:
C. need to generate revenue to pay for spending.
Explanation:
Inflation can be defined as the persistent rise in the price of goods and services in an economy.
Generally, inflation usually causes the value of money to fall and as a result, it imposes more cost on an economy.
Furthermore, when this persistent rise in the price of goods and services in an economy becomes rapid, excessive, unbearable and out of control over a period of time, it is generally referred to as hyperinflation
Hence, hyperinflations ultimately are the result of excessive growth rates of the money supply; the underlying motive for the excessive money growth rates is frequently a government's need to generate (tax) revenue to pay for spending.
Taxation can be defined as the involuntary or compulsory fees levied on individuals or business entities by the government to generate revenues used for funding public institutions and activities.
The Work-in-Process inventory account of a manufacturing firm shows a balance of $3,250 at the end of an accounting period. The job cost sheets of two uncompleted jobs show charges of $510 and $310 for materials, and charges of $410 and $670 for direct labor. From this information, it appears that the company is using a predetermined overhead rate, as a percentage of direct labor costs, of:
Answer:
$1.25
Explanation:
With regards to the above and given that;
Direct material = $510 310
Direct labor = $410 $670
Manufacturing overhead?
Work in process = Direct material + Direct labor + manufacturing overhead
$3,250 = $820 + $1,080 + MOH
$3,250 - $1,900 = MOH
MOH = $1,350
Overhead rate = MOH/Direct labor hour
= $1,350/1080
= $1.25

Clarisa, an engineering manager, wants to purchase a resort accommodation to rent to skiers. She is considering the purchase of a three-bedroom lodge in upper Montana that will cost $250,000. The property in the area is rapidly appreciating in value because people anxious to get away from urban developments are bidding up the prices. If Clarisa spends an average of $500 per month for utilities and the investment increases at a rate of 2% per month, how long would it be before she could sell the property for $100,000 more than she has in
Answer:
18.5 months approximately
Explanation:
initial investment x (1 + appreciation rate)ⁿ = initial investment + $100,000 + ($500 x n)
$250,000 x (1 + 2%)ⁿ = $350,000 + $500n
1.02ⁿ = $350,000/$250,000 + $500n/$250,000
1.02ⁿ = 1.4 + 0.002n
