Answer:
a. Consumption (C).
b. Investment (I).
c. Imports (M) and consumption (C).
d. Exports (X).
e. Investment (I) and government purchases (G).
Explanation:
a. Susan gets a new video camera made in the United States: this is a consumption (C).
b. Alex buys a new set of tools to use in his plumbing business: this is an investment (I).
c. Raphael buys a sweater made in Guatemala: this is both an import (M) and consumption (C).
d. Raphael's employer assigns him to provide consulting services to an Australian firm that's opening a manufacturing facility in China: this is an export (X).
e. The Federal Aviation Administration expands the runways at Philadelphia International Airport, which is just a few miles from Raphael and Susan's house: this both an investment (I) and government purchases (G).
The Gross Domestic Products (GDP) is the measure of the total market value of all finished goods and services made within a country during a specific period.
Ultimately, this implies that Gross Domestic Products (GDP) is a measure of the total income of all individuals in an economy and the total expenses incurred on the economy's output of goods and services in a particular country.
Hence, GDP is the summation of the consumption (C), investment (I), net exports (N) [exports (x) - imports (M)] and government purchases (G).
Mathematically, GDP is given by the equation; [tex]GDP = C + I + N + G[/tex]
Where, consumption (C) is the personal spending by households on various goods and services for their own pleasure.
Investment is the spending by business owners on equipments and other inventories to enhance productivity.
Government purchases is the expenditures made by state, local and federal government on goods and services for the general public.
Net exports (N) is the subtraction of imports (M) from exports (X) in a country at a particular period of time.
You are planning to retire 40 years from now. If your retirement account pays an annual rate of 6% compounded monthly and you start making a monthly contribution of $400 a month today, how much will you have when you retire in 40 years
Answer:
$800,579.28
Explanation:
The sum of the monthly payments can be found by the "annuity due" formula:
A = P(1 +n/r)((1 +r/n)^(nt)-1)
where P is the monthly deposit, r is the annual interest rate, n is the number of times per year it is compounded, and t is the number of years.
For this problem, we have ...
A = $400(1 +12/.06)(1(1 +.06/12)^(12·40)-1) = $400(201)(1 -1.005^480 -1)
A = $800,579.28
The account balance after 40 years will be $800,579.28.
Which employee labor rate is typically used to produce a project budget?
Answer:
Billable rates

1. Prepare a journal entry showing the transfer of Job 102 into Finished Goods Inventory upon its completion. 2. Prepare the journal entries to recognize the sales revenue and cost of goods sold for Job 101. 3. Prepare the journal entry to transfer the balance of the Manufacturing Overhead account to Cost of Goods Sold.
Answer and Explanation:
Before recording the journal entries first we need to do the computations which are shown below:
The predetermined overhead rate is
= $420,000 ÷ 60,000 machine hours
= $7 per machine hour
Now
Particulars Job 101 Job 102 Job 103 Total
Direct materials used 19,200 14,400 9,600 43,200
Direct labor 28,800 11,200 9,600 49,600
overhead applied 7000 28000 14000 49000
total 55,000 53,600 33,200 141,800
COGS Finished WIP
Now the journal entries are as follows
1 Finished goods inventory $53,600
To Work in process inventory $53,600
(Being the transfer of job 102 is recorded)
2a) Cost of goods sold $55,000
To Finished goods inventory $55,000
(being the cost of goods sold is recorded)
2b) Cash $60,000
To sales revenue $60,000
(being the sales revenue is recorded)
3) Manufacturing overhead $4,000 ($49,000 - $45,000)
To Cost of goods sold $4,000
(Being the balance of the manufacturing overhead is recorded)
5. Sarasota Bicycles has been manufacturing its own wheels for its bikes. The company is currently operating at 100% capacity, and variable manufacturing overhead is charged to production at the rate of 30% of direct labor cost. The direct materials and direct labor cost per unit to make the wheels are $3.00 and $3.60 respectively. Normal production is 200,000 wheels per year. A supplier offers to make the wheels at a price of $8 each. If the bicycle company accepts this offer, all variable manufacturing costs will be eliminated, but the $84,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead currently being charged to the wheels will have to be absorbed by other products. Required: a. Prepare an incremental analysis for the decision to make or buy the wheels. b. Should Sarasota Bicycles buy the wheels from the outside supplier
Answer:
It is better to make the wheels
Explanation:
Sarasota Bicycles
Incremental Analysis
Make Buy
Direct materials $3.00
Direct labor $3.60
Variable OH (3.06*30%) 1.08
Total 7.68 8
Normal production 200,000 200,000
Total Costs 1536000 1600,000
Fixed Overheads 84,000 84,000
Total Costs 1620,000 1684,000
As fixed costs are irrelevant costs that would not change whether the company makes or buys wheels and the cost to make the wheels $7.08 is less than the cost to buy $ 8.0. It is better to make the wheels . Buying the wheels from the outside supplier is costly.
a. Incremental Analysis for making the wheels at Sarasota Bicycles is as follows:
Make Buy Differential
Alternative 1 Alternative 2 Cost
Relevant cost per unit $7.68 $8.00 $0.32 ($8.00 - $7.68)
Total cost $1,536,000 $1,600,000 $64,000 (200,000 x $0.32)
b. Sarasota should not buy the wheels from the outside supplier. It should continue to make them as it saves $64,000 per year from making the wheels.
Data and Calculations:
Direct materials cost per unit = $3.00
Direct labor cost per unit = $3.60
Variable manufacturing overhead = $1.08 ($3.60 x 30%)
Total variable cost per unit = $7.68
Number of wheels per year = 200,000
Outside Supplier's Price = $8 per unit
Thus, Sarasota Bicycles gains $64,000 by making the wheels instead of buying from the outside supplier.

NU YU announced today that it will begin paying annual dividends. The first dividend will be paid next year in the amount of $.27 a share. The following dividends will be $.32, $.47, and $.77 a share annually for the following three years, respectively. After that, dividends are projected to increase by 2.3 percent per year. How much are you willing to pay today to buy one share of this stock if your desired rate of return is 12 percent
Answer:
The maximum hat should be paid for the stock today is $6.48
Explanation:
The price of the stock today can be calculated using the dividend discount model. It bases the price or value of a stock on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock.
The price of the stock today is,
P0 = 0.27/(1+0.12) + 0.32/(1+0.12)^2 + 0.47/(1+0.12)^3 + 0.77/(1+0.12)^4
[ (0.77 * (1+0.023)) / (0.12 - 0.023) ] / (1+0.12)^4
P0 = $6.48092 rounded off to $6.48
Master Hatter's demand for hats is 25,000 per year. The order cost is $425 and the carrying cost is $4.50 per unit. The cost paid (price) to the hat manufacturer is $75 per hat.
A. Compute the Economic Order Quantity and enter it here.
B. The supplier has indicated that Master Hatter can have a price of $25 per hat if he orders at least 2000 at a time.
C. In order to minimize total costs (inventory plus purchase costs). Master Hatter should order blank hats and will save blank dollars each year.
Answer with its Explanation:
Part A. Economic order quantity Computation
Economic order quantity can be calculated by using the following formula:
EOQ = Squaroot of (2* D * S / H)
Here
Ordering cost per order is $425 which is S
Annual Holding cost per unit per year is $4.5 which is H
Annual Demand is 25000 Units
By putting values, we have:
EOQ = (2 * 25000 * $425 / $4.5) ^(1 / 2) = 2173 Hats
Part B.
Total Cost at EOQ = Purchasing Cost + Total Ordering cost + Holding Cost
By putting values, we have:
Total Cost = 25,000 Units * $25 per unit + ($25,000 / 2173 Hats) * $425 + (2173 Hats / 2) * $4.5 = $634,778 Annual Cost
Part C.
For ordering at-least 2000 units per order, the total cost would be:
Total Cost under 2000 order quantity = 25,000 * $25 per unit + (25000/2000) * $425 + (2000/2) * $4.5
Total Cost under 2000 order quantity = $634,813
By ordering at least 2000 hats will bring a loss of $35 ($634,778 - $634,813), hence Master Hatter must only order in EOQ.
Winston Co. has variable costs of $5 per unit and a selling price of $10 per unit. Fixed costs are $100,000. Planned unit sales for 2020 are 25,000 units. Actual unit sales for 2019 were 22,000 units. What is the margin of safety in ratios for 2020
Answer:
MOS( in %) = 20%
Explanation:
Margin of safety (MOS) determines the amount by which expected sales exceeds the break-even point (BEP).
MOS can be calculated as follows:
MOS (units) = Budgeted sales - BEP
BEP= Fixed cost for the period / contribution per unit
Contribution per unit = Selling price - variable cost per unit
Contribution per unit = $10 - $5 = $ 5
BEP (units) = 100,000/ 5= 20,000
MOS (in units) = 25,000 - 20,000 = 5000 units
Margin of Safety as a %
(5000/25,000 ) × 100= 20 %
MOS( in %) = 20%
The City of Southern Pines maintains its books so as to prepare fund accounting statements and records worksheet adjustments in order to prepare government-wide statements. As such, the City’s internal service fund, a motor pool fund, is included in the proprietary funds statements. Balance sheet asset accounts include: Cash, $102,000; Investments, $150,400; Due from the General Fund, $18,300; Inventories, $396,000; and Capital Assets (net), $1,169,700. Liability accounts include: Accounts Payable, $61,500; Long-Term Advance from Enterprise Fund, $738,000. The only transaction in the internal service fund that is external to the government is interest revenue in the amount of $4,400. Exclusive of the interest revenue, the internal service fund reported net income in the amount of $84,000. An examination of the records indicates that services were provided as follows: one-third to general government, one-third to public safety, and one-third to public works. Prepare necessary adjustments in order to incorporate the internal service fund in the government-wide statements as a part of governmental activities. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No Journal Entry Required" in the first account field.)
Answer: The answer has been attached
Explanation:
The journal is a book in accounting that is used to record the transactions that affect a business. It should be noted that the double entry method of bookkeeping is utilised while recording in a journal.
The journal has been attached in the following way:
1. The journal was used to record the balance sheet particulars.
2. To record the transaction in the internal service fund that is external to the government.
3. To record the internal service fund in the government-wide statements as a part of governmental activities.
It should also be noted that the net income of $84,000 was to be shared as one-third to general government, one-third to public safety, and one-third to public works. This means they'll all receive ($84,000/3) = $28,000 each.

10. Problems and Applications Q10 High-income people are willing to pay more than lower-income people to avoid the risk of death. For example, they are more likely to pay for safety features on cars. True or False: One reason a rich town may put in a traffic light while a poor town does not is that the rich town may value a human life more highly in its cost-benefit analysis. True False
Answer:
True
True
Explanation:
Cost benefit analysis is used in decision making. This involves weighting the cost of doing something to the benefit derived from it which can be monetary or in this case non-monetary.
The cost benefit analysis is subjective and in our case it differs from lower-income people to that of higher - income people. A rich town may value a human life more highly in its cost-benefit analysis and would be willing to pay more than lower-income people to avoid the risk of death.
Mars Corp. is choosing between two different capital investment proposals. Machine A has a useful life of four years, and machine B has a useful life of six years. Each proposal requires an initial investment of $200,000, and the company desires a rate of return of 10 percent. Although machine B has a useful life of six years, it could be sold at the end of four years for $35,000.
Year Present Value of $1 at 10 Percent
1 0.909
2 0.826
3 0.751
4 0.683
5 0.621
6 0.513
Machine A will generate net cash flow of $70,000 in each of the four years. Machine B will generate $80,000 in year 1, $70,000 in year 2, $60,000 in year 3, and $40,000 per year for the remaining three years of its useful life. Which of the following statements portrays the most accurate analysis between the two proposals?
a. Mars should invest in Machine A becuase the net present value of Machine A after 4 years is higher than the net present value of Machine B after 4 years.
b. Mars should invest in Machine B becuase the net present value of Machine A after 4 years is lower than the net present value of Machine B after 6 years.
c. Mars should invest in Machine B becuase the net present value of Machine A after 4 years is lower than the net present value of Machine B after 4 years.
d. Mars should invest in Machine A becuase the net present value of Machine A after 4 years is higher than the net present value of Machine B after 6 years.
Answer:
c. Mars should invest in Machine B becuase the net present value of Machine A after 4 years is lower than the net present value of Machine B after 4 years.
Explanation:
Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
Considering that machine b can be sold on 4 years, The NPV of machine b should be calculated based on the cash flow in for 4 years
NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator.
Machine A :
Cash flow in year 0 = $-200,000
Cash flow each year from year 1 to 4 = $70,000
I = 10%
NPV = 21,890.58
Machine B :
Cash flow in year 0 = $-200,000
Cash flow each year from year 1 = $80,000
Cash flow each year from year 2 = $70,000
Cash flow each year from year 3 = $60,000
Cash flow each year from year 4 = $40000 + $35,000 = $75,000
I = 10%
NPV = $26,883.41
Machine b should be accepted because its NPV is greater than that of machine A
To find the NPV using a financial calacutor:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

Suppose your credit card issuer states that it charges a 15.00% nominal annual rate, but you must make monthly payments, which amounts to monthly compounding. What is the effective annual rate
Answer: 16.08%
Explanation:
The effective annual interest rate simply means the interest rate on a loan that is restated from nominal interest rate.
In the above question, we are informed that it uses 15.00% as the nominal annual rate make monthly payments.
Effective annual rate = (1 + r/m)^m - 1
where,
r = annual nominal interest rate
m = number of compounding periods for the year.
In this case m= 12 since there are 12 months in a year.

Ganado and Equity Risk Premiums. Maria Gonzalez, Ganado's Chief Financial Officer, estimates the risk-free rate to be 3.50 %, the company's credit risk premium is 3.60%, the domestic beta is estimated at 1.12, the international beta is estimated at 0.86, and the company's capital structure is now 80% debt. The before-tax cost of debt estimated by observing the current yield on Ganado's outstanding bonds combined with bank debt is 7.60% and the company's effective tax rate is 39%. Calculate both the CAPM and ICAPM weighted average costs of capital for the following equity risk premium estimates. a. 8.10% b. 7.10% c. 4.90% d. 3.90%
Answer:
WACC (CAPM) 5.2%
WACC (ICAPM) 5.03%
Explanation:
The weighted average cost of capital is
Ke * E/ E+D + Kd * (1 -t) D / E+D
Ke = Rf + (Rm - Rf) * [tex]\beta[/tex]
Ke (CAPM) = 3.50% + (8% - 3.50%) * 1.12
Ke (CAPM) = 7.532%
Kd (CAPM) = Kd (1-t)
Kd (CAPM) = 7.60 (1-39%)
Kd (CAPM) = 4.636%
WACC (ICAPM) : 7.532 * 20% + 4.636 * 80%
WACC (CAPM) = 5.2164%
Ke (ICAPM) = 3.50% + (8% - 3.50%) * 0.86
Ke (ICAPM) = 6.596%
Kd (ICAPM) = Kd (1-t)
Kd (ICAPM) = 7.60 (1-39%)
Kd (ICAPM) = 4.636%
WACC (ICAPM) : 6.596 * 20% + 4.636 * 80%
WACC (CAPM) = 5.03%
Suppose that a young couple has just had their first baby and they wish to ensure that enough money will be available to pay for their child's college education. Currently, college tuition, books, fees, and other costs average $20,000 per year. On average, tuition and other costs have historically increased at a rate of 6% per year. Assuming that college costs continue to increase an average of 6% per year and that all her college savings are invested in an account paying 8% interest, then the amount of money she will need to have available at age 20 to pay for all four years of her undergraduate education is closest to ________.
Answer:
$256,571
Explanation:
College Graduation fee for four years in the present value
PV = $20,000 x 4 = $80,000
As historically the fee has risen by 6% we need to find future value when the baby will be 20 years old by using future value formula
Let's say
FV = Future value
PV = Present value
n = number of years
i = Interest
Workings
FV = PV x ((1+growth rate)^n)
FV = $80,000 x ( (1+0.06)^20)
FV = $256,571
As the bank interest rate is 8% the saving need to be deposited annualy can be calculated as
Savings = (FV x i) / ((1+i)^n)-1)
Savings = ($256,571 x 0.08) / ((1+0.08)^20)-1)
Savings = 20,525.68 / 3.66
Savings = $5,608
Free Cash Flow Iron Ore Corp. reported free cash flows for 2008 of $106 million and investment in operating capital of $189 million. Iron Ore listed $39 million in depreciation expense and $51 million in taxes on its 2008 income statement. What was Iron Ore's 2008 EBIT
Answer:
$307 million
Explanation:
Iron ore Corporation reported a free cash flow of $106 million
The investment in operating capital is $189 million
Iron ore listed a depreciation expense of $39 million and a tax of $51 million on its income statement for 2008.
The first step is to calculate the operating cash flow
Free cash flow= Operating cash flow-Investment in operating capital
$106m= OCF-$189m
OCF= $106m+$189m
OCF= $295m
Operating cash flow= $295 million
Therefore, the EBIT can be calculated as follows
Operating cash flow= EBIT-Taxes+Depreciation
$295m= EBIT-$51m+$39m
$295m= EBIT-$12m
EBIT= $295m+$12m
EBIT= $307 million
Hence the iron ore's 2008 EBIT is $307 million.
Bonita Company uses a job order cost system in each of its three manufacturing departments. Manufacturing overhead is applied to jobs on the basis of direct labor cost in Department D, direct labor hours in Department E, and machine hours in Department K.
In establishing the predetermined overhead rates for 2020, the following estimates were made for the year.
Department
D E K
Manufacturing overhead $990,000 $1,750,000 $1,080,000
Direct labor costs $1,237,500 $1,875,000 $675,000
Direct labor hours 150,000 125,000 60,000
Machine hours 600,000 750,000 120,000
During January, the job cost sheets showed the following costs and production data.
Department
D E K
Direct materials used $140,000 $126,000 $78,000
Direct labor costs $120,000 $110,000 $37,500
Manufacturing overhead incurred $99,000 $124,000 $79,000
Direct labor hours 8,000 11,000 3,500
Machine hours 34,000 45,000 10,400
Required:
a. Compute the predetermined overhead rate for each department.
b. Compute the total manufacturing costs assigned to jobs in January in each department.
c. Compute the under- or overapplied overhead for each department at January 31.
Answer:
a.Department D = $0.80 per direct labor cost, Department E = $14 per direct labor hour, Department K = $9 per machine hour.
b.Department D = $96,000, Department E = $154,000, Department K = $93,600
c.Department D = $ 3,000 Under-applied, Department E = $30,000 Over-applied, Department K = $14,600 Over-applied
Explanation:
Predetermined Overhead Rate is used to apportion Factory Overheads to Jobs or Products.
Predetermined Overhead Rate = Budgeted Overheads / Budgeted Activity
Department D = $990,000 / $1,237,500
= $0.80 per direct labor cost
Department E = $1,750,000 / 125,000
= $14 per direct labor hour
Department K = $1,080,000 / 120,000
= $9 per machine hour
Overheads Assigned to Jobs = Predetermined Overhead Rate × Actual Activity.
Department D = $0.80 × $120,000
= $96,000
Department E = $14 × 11,000
= $154,000
Department K = $9 × 10,400
= $93,600
If, Actual Overheads > Assigned Overheads = Under-applied
If, Actual Overheads < Assigned Overheads = Over-applied
Department D = $ 99,000 - $96,000
= $ 3,000 Under-applied
Department E = $154,000 - $124,000
= $30,000 Over-applied
Department K = $93,600 - $79,000
= $14,600 Over-applied
The following monthly data are available for Sheridan Company which produces only one product: Selling price per unit, $38; Unit variable expenses, $14; Total fixed expenses, $42000; Actual sales for the month of June, 7000 units. How much is the margin of safety for the company for June
Answer:
$199,500
Explanation:
The computation of the margin of safety is shown below:
As we know that
margin of safety = Actual sales - break even sales
where,
Actual sales is
= Actual sales units × Selling price per unit
= 7,000 units × $38
= $266,000
And, the break even sales is
= Fixed cost ÷ contribution margin per unit
= $42,000 ÷ ($38 - $14)
= $42,000 ÷ $24
= 1,750 units
Now the break even sales is
= Break even units × selling price per unit
= 1,750 units × $38
= $66,500
So, the margin of safety is
= $266,000 - $66,500
= $199,500
Hilton Inc. sells a product for $51 per unit. The variable cost is $27 per unit, while fixed costs are $71,424. Determine (a) the break-even point in sales units and (b) the break-even point if the selling price were increased to $58 per unit. a. Break-even point in sales units units b. Break-even point if the selling price were increased to $58 per unit
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
As we know that
Break even point = (Fixed cost) ÷ (Contribution margin per unit)
where,
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable expense per unit
a. The break even point in sales units is
= ($71,424) ÷ ($51 - $27)
= ($71,424) ÷ ($24)
= 2,976 units
b. In case when the sale price increased to $58 per unit, the break even point is
= ($71,424) ÷ ($58 - $27)
= ($71,424) ÷ ($31)
= 2,304 units

21 Received from McKenna Outer Wear Co., on account, a $66,000, 60-day, 8% note dated November 21 in settlement of a past due account.
Dec.
31 Recorded an adjusting entry for accrued interest on the note of November 21. 20Y4
Jan.
20 Received payment of note and interest from McKenna Outer Wear Co.
Required:
Journalize the entries to record the transactions.
Answer:
20Y3
Nov. 21 :
Debit Notes receivable $66,000
Credit Accounts receivable $66,000
(To recognize notes receivable iro past due account)
Dec. 31:
Debit Interest revenue $161.33
Credit Interest receivable $161.33
(To record accrued interest on notes receivable)
Jan. 20:
Debit Cash $66,880
Credit Notes receivable $66,000
Credit Interest receivable $880
(To record payment of note and interest on Nov. 21 notes)
Explanation:
Note receivable is a promissory note with a written promise made by the borrower to the lender (payee) to pay a certain, definite sum at a specified date.
Interest revenue on the notes is calculated as: Principal x Interest Rate x Time
In this case, the total interest expense is $66,000 x 8%/12 x 2 months = $880.
Total interest expense to the Company as at December 31 is therefore $880 / 60 days x 11 days = $161.33.
Jack's Construction Co. has 80,000 bonds outstanding that are selling at par value. Bonds with similar characteristics are yielding 8.5%. The company also has 4 million shares of common stock outstanding. The stock has a beta of 1.1 and sells for $40 a share. The U.S. Treasury bill is yielding 4% and the market risk premium is 8%. Jack's tax rate is 35%. What is Jack's weighted average cost of capital
Answer:
The answer is =10.36%
Explanation:
The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is a way that a company calculates its cost of financing and acquiring assets by comparing the debt and equity structure of the business.
WACC = WeRe + WdRd
We is weight of equity
Re is cost of equity
Wd is weight of debt
Rd is cost of debt
For its cost of equity:
Ke = Rf + beta(market risk premium)
Where Ke is cost of equity
Rf is risk free rate of return( treasury bill return)
4% + 1.1 x 8%
= 12.8%
Total debt 80,000 x $1,000 = $80million
Common: 4million x $40 = $160million
Total = $80milllion + $160million
=$240million.
Therefore, WACC is
WdRd= 80/240 x [8.5% x(1-35%)]
80/240 x 5.5%
=1.83%
WeRe = 160/240 x 12.8%
= 8.53%
=1.83% + 8.53%
=10.36%

Gerald received a one-third capital and profit (loss) interest in XYZ Limited Partnership (LP). In exchange for this interest, Gerald contributed a building with an FMV of $37,000. His adjusted basis in the building was $18,500. In addition, the building was encumbered with a $9,750 nonrecourse mortgage that XYZ LP assumed at the time the property was contributed. What is Gerald's outside basis immediately after his contribution
Answer:
$12,000
Explanation:
According to the given situation,the computation of the outside basis is shown below:-
Total Outside basis = Adjusted basis - Non-recourse mortgage + G's share of mortgage
= $18,500 - $9,750 + ($9,750 × 3)
= $18,500 - $9,750 + $3,250
= $12,000
Therefore for computing the total outside basis we simply applied the abovbe formula.

A creative process is a mental approach to innovation, it involves all the process of conceiving an idea and using this ideas to create a new and original product.
Generally, the creative process can be classified into five (5) stages, these are;
1. Preparation: this is typically the first stage of the creative process and it involves the process of gathering information by doing a whole lot of background research that would inspire you to do it.
2. Incubation: at this second stage of the creative process, you will let your mind wander away in imagination, in order to construct your thoughts.
3. Insight: this is the third stage of the creative process and it involves connecting the dots in your thoughts. It is simply the "eureka" moment where a perfect idea fits into your head.
4. Evaluation: this is the fourth stage of the creative process and it involves verifying and sifting your ideas to ensure they are in tandem with your aim, objectives and goals.
5. Implementation: this is the final stage of the creative process and it is the stage where the beautiful and insightful ideas are put into actions to develop a product.

Synovec Co. is growing quickly. Dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 24 percent for the next three years, with the growth rate falling off to a constant 7 percent thereafter. If the required return is 11 percent, and the company just paid a dividend of $2.05, what is the current share price? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
The current price per share is $84.16
Explanation:
The dividend discount model (DDM) estimates the value of a share/stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. We will use the two stage growth model of DDM here as the growth in dividends of the stock is divided into two stages.
The formula for current price under two stage growth model is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g1) / (1+r) + D0 * (1+g1)^2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + D0 * (1+g1)^n / (1+r)^n +
[( D0 * (1+g1)^n * (1+g2)) / (r - g2)] / (1+r)^n
Where,
g1 is initial growth rate
g2 is the constant growth rate
r is the required rate of return
So, the price of the stock today will be,
P0 = 2.05 * (1+0.24) / (1+0.11) + 2.05 * (1+0.24)^2 / (1+0.11)^2 +
2.05 * (1+0.24)^3 / (1+0.11)^3 + [( 2.05 * (1+0.24)^3 * (1+0.07)) / (0.11 - 0.07)] / (1+0.11)^3
P0 = $84.1556 rounded off to $84.16

An analyst wants to estimate the yield to maturity on a non-traded 4-year, annual pay bond rated A. Among actively traded bonds with the same rating, 3-year bonds are yielding 3.2% and 6-year bonds are yielding 5.0%. Using matrix pricing the analyst should estimate a YTM for the non-traded bond that is closest to:
Answer:
3.8%
Explanation:
3 year bonds yielding 3.2%
6 year bonds yielding 5.0
Annual pay bond 4 years
Yielding bond+[(Annual pay bond- Bonds years)/bond years]×(Yielding bond-Yeilding bonds)
Let plug in the formula
Interpolating: 3.2% + [(4 - 3) / (6 - 3)] × (5.0% - 3.2%)
=3.2%+[1/3×(1.8%)]
= 3.2%+(0.33333×1.8%)
=3.2%+0.006
=0.032+0.006
=0.038×100
=3.8%
Alternatively,
Interpolating: 3.2% + [(4 - 3) / (6 - 3)] × (5.0% - 3.2%) =3.8%
In this case the analyst should estimate a YTM for the non-traded bond that is closest to: 3.8%
