Answer:
$24.7596
Explanation:
Calculation to determine What is your estimate of Shatin's stock price after this announcement
First step is to calculate the Present value (PV) using this formula
Present Value = (Dividend + Repurchases/R)
Let plug in the formula
Present Value= ($21 m + $9.9m)/0.13
Present Value= $237,692,307.6923077
Now let calculate the stock price using this formula
Stock Price = Present Value/Shares Outstanding
Let plug in the formula
Present Value= 237,692,307.6923077/9,600,000
Present Value= $24.7596
Therefore your estimate of Shatin's stock price after this announcement will be $24.7596
Claremont Company specializes in selling refurbished copiers. During the month, the company sold 220 copiers for total sales of $836,000. The budget for the month was to sell 215 copiers at an average price of $4,000. The sales price variance for the month was:
Answer:
$44,000 Unfavourable
Explanation:
Given the above information, sales price variance is computed as
= (Actual sales price - Standard/Budgeted sales price) × Actual units sold
Actual sales price = $836,000/220 = $3,800
Standard sales price = $4,000
Actual units sold = 220
= ($3,800 - $4,000) × 220
= $44,000 Unfavourable
The above is unfavourable sales price variance because you can sell the copier at a higher price of $4,000 than the actual price of $3,800

The Beranek Company, whose stock price is now $30, needs to raise $13 million in common stock. Underwriters have informed the firm's management that they must price the new issue to the public at $25 per share because of signaling effects. The underwriters' compensation will be 6% of the issue price, so Beranek will net $23.50 per share. The firm will also incur expenses in the amount of $165,000. How many shares must the firm sell to net $13 million after underwriting and flotation expenses
Answer:
858,085 shares must be sold
Explanation:
Net amount to be raised $ 13,000,000
Add: floatation expenses 165,000
Amount to be available after

The crowding out effect: increases the multiplier effect, so that an increase in taxes reduces income by more. increases the multiplier effect, so that an increase in taxes reduces income by less. decreases the multiplier effect, so that an increase in taxes reduces income by more. decreases the multiplier effect, so that an increase in taxes reduces income by less.
Answer: decreases the multiplier effect, so that an increase in taxes reduces income by more.
Explanation:
The multiplier effect is the increase aggregate production in the economy due to an increase in spending by the government. A crowding out effect refers to when the spending by the government is at the expense of the private sector such that the private sector is unable to invest and grow.
The multiplier effect will therefore decrease as private investment slows. This leads to lower incomes for people as the economy is not expanding. If the government were to tax people at that point, it would take more of their income than less.
The Federal Open Market Committee a. by law must focus on maintaining low inflation rather than stabilizing output. b. by law must follow a mechanical rule that takes into account deviations of unemployment from its natural rate and deviations of inflation from a target. c. operates with almost complete discretion over monetary policy. d. by law must focus on stabilizing output rather than maintaining low inflation.
Answer:
c. operates with almost complete discretion over monetary policy.
Explanation:
Monetary policy can be defined as the actions (macroeconomic policies) adopted and undertaken by the central bank of a particular country to control the money supply and interest rates so as to boost or enhance economic growth. The central bank uses monetary policies to manage inflation, economic growth through long-term interest rates and level of unemployment in a country. In order to boost economic growth, monetary policy is used to increase money supply (liquidity) while it is also used to prevent inflation by reducing money supply.
Generally, money supply comprises of checks, cash, money market mutual funds (MMF) and credit (mortgage, bonds and loans).
The FOMC are typically responsible for making monetary policy and the determination of the direction of the monetary policy in the United States of America.
Hence, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) are saddled with the responsibility to operate with almost complete discretion of its members over monetary policy in a particular country.

Explanation:
Fixed costs are $1500000 and the variable costs are 75% of the unit selling price. What is the break-even point in dollars?
Answer:
$6,000,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the break-even point in dollars
Using this formula
Break-even point (Dollars)=Fixed costs/(1-Variable costs percentage of unit selling price)
Let plug in the formula
Break-even point (Dollars)=$1,500,000/ (1-.75)
Break-even point (Dollars)=$1,500,000/.25
Break-even point (Dollars)=$6,000,000
Therefore the break-even point in dollars is $6,000,000
"You own a portfolio equally invested in a risk-free asset and two stocks. If one of the stocks has a beta of 1.05 and the total portfolio is equally as risky as the market, what must the beta be for the other stock in your portfolio?"
Answer: 1.95
Explanation:
The beta for the other stock in the portfolio will be calculated thus:
Portfolio Beta = (BetaA × WeightA) + (BetaB × WeightB) + (BetaC × WeightC)
= (BetaA × 1/3) + (1.05 × 1/3) + (0 × 1/3)
= (BetaA × 1/3) + 0.35 + 0
Beta A = 1-0.35 × 3
Beta A = 0.65 × 3
Beta A = 1.95

"Night Shades Inc. (NSI) manufactures biotech sunglasses. The variable materials cost is $1.12 per unit, and the variable labor cost is $1.9 per unit. a. What is the variable cost per unit? b. Suppose the company incurs fixed costs of $420,000 during a year in which total production is 189,000 units. What are the total costs for the year? c. If the selling price is $8.55 per unit, what is the NSI break-even on a cash basis? d. If depreciation is $94,500 per year, what is the accounting break-even point?"
Answer:
Night Shades Inc. (NSI)
a. The variable cost per unit is:
= $3.02.
b. The total costs for the year is:
= $990,780.
c. The NSI break-even on a cash basis is:
= $503,091.
d. The accounting break-even point is:
= $647,150.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Variable costs per unit:
Materials = $1.12
Labor = 1.90
Total = $3.02
Total production units = 189,000
Total variable costs = $570,780
Fixed costs = $420,000
Total costs = $990,780
Per unit:
Selling price = $8.55
Variable costs 3.02
Contribution $5.53
Contribution margin in percentage = $5.53/$8.55 * 100 = 64.7%
Fixed costs on cash basis = FC - Depreciation = $325,500 ($420,000 - $94,500)
Break-even point on a cash basis = $325,5000/0.647 = $503,091
Break-even point in sales dollars = $420,000/0.647 = $647,150
Logan Company can sell all of the standard and premier products they can produce, but it has limited production capacity. It can produce 6 standard units per hour or 5 premier units per hour, and it has 39,000 production hours available. Contribution margin per unit is $21 for the standard product and $25 for the premier product. What is the most profitable sales mix for Logan Company
Answer:
234,000 standard units
Explanation:
Standard unit Premier unit
Contribution margin per unit $25 $21
Production hour per unit 1/6 1/5
Contribution margin per production hour $150 $105
Contribution margin per production hour is higher for standard units, hence Logan company should produce standard units.
Total production hours available = 39,000
Production per hour of standard unit = 6
Maximum production of standard units = Total production hours available * Production per hour of standard unit
Maximum production of standard units = 39,000 * 6
Maximum production of standard units = 234,000
g Segmented Markets Theory of the Yield Curve A. Notes or bonds of different maturities are not substitutes for each other B. Notes or bonds of different maturities are substitutes for each other C. Notes or bonds of different maturities are inversions of each other D. Explains why the yield curve is normally downward sloping
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The segmented Markets Theory of the Yield Curve is a traditional theory explaining the term structure of interest rates
According to the theory, the yield curve is divided into different maturities and investors determine the yield curve by their demand and supply for funds of different maturities.
Each maturity is viewed as a segmented market in which the yield is determined independently from the yields of other maturities
The theory assumes that investors are unwilling or unable to invest in other securities than that with their preferred maturity. As a result, the yield of securities in a maturity is determined only by the demand and supply of funds in that maturity. It also implies that Notes or bonds of different maturities are not substitutes for each other
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, there were 100,800 chefs/head cooks employed in the United States in 2010 and 320,900 food service managers. Those numbers were projected to decrease to 98,800 and 311,000 by 2020. Which job was facing the larger percent decrease
Answer:
Foodservice managers
Explanation:
Considering the data available in the question we have the following:
In 2010 => Chefs / head cooks - 100,800 personnel
In 2010 => Foodservice managers = 320,900 personnel
In 2020 => Chefs/head cooks = 98,800
In 2020 => Foodservice managers = 311,000
The difference in chefs/head cooks = 100,800 - 98,000 = 2,000
While that of Food service managers = 320,900 - 311,000 = 9,900
Hence, percentage for chefs / head cooks = 2000/108900 = 1.98% decrease
Percentage of fold service managers = 9900/320900 = 3.09% decrease.
Hence, in this case, Foodservice managers facing a larger percentage decrease.

Bonaime, Inc., has 7.7 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current share price is $62.70, and the book value per share is $5.70. The company also has two bond issues outstanding. The first bond issue has a face value of $71.7 million, a coupon rate of 7.2 percent, and sells for 89.5 percent of par. The second issue has a face value of $36.7 million, a coupon rate of 8.2 percent, and sells for 88.5 percent of par. The first issue matures in 22 years, the second in 14 years. The most recent dividend was $3.70 and the dividend growth rate is 8 percent. Assume that the overall cost of debt is the weighted average of that implied by the two outstanding debt issues. Both bonds make semiannual payments. The tax rate is 30 percent.

What is the company’s WACC? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
WACC
Answer:
Bonaime, Inc.
1. The company's cost of equity = 5.90%
2. The company's after-tax cost of debt = 5.92%
3. The company's equity weight = 83.32%
4. The company's debt weight = 16.68%
5. The company's WACC = 5.9035%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Common stock outstanding = 7.7 million shares
Current share price = $62.70
Book value per share = $5.70
Most recent dividend per share = $3.70
1. Cost of equity = Dividend/Current share price = $3.70/$62.70 = 5.90%
Value:
Book value = 7.7 million * $5.70 = $43,890,000
Market value = 7.7 million * $62,70 = $482,790,000
Bonds outstanding: First Bonds Second Bonds Total
Face value = $71,700,000 $36,700,000 $108,400,000
Coupon rate 7.2% 8.2%
Annual coupon payment $5,162,400 $3,009,400 $8,171,800
Market value per bond 89.5% 88.5%
Market value of bonds $64,171,500 $32,479,500 $96,651,000
Before tax cost of debt = $8,171,800/$96,651,000 = 0.08455
2. After tax cost of debt = 5.92% (0.08455 * (1 - 0.30))
3. The company's equity weight = Equity Market Value/Total Firm's Value
= $482,790,000/$579,441,000
= 83.32%
4. The company's debt weight = 1 - 0.8332
= 16.68%
5. The company's WACC = Cost of equity * Weight + Cost of Debt * Weight
= (5.90% * 83.32%) + (5.92% * 16.68%)
= (0.0590 * 0.8332) + (0.0592 * 0.1668)
= 0.04916 + 0.009875
= 0.059035
= 5.9035%
b) The costs of equity and debts are based on their market values instead of the book value. The market values are always more relevant in capital decision-making than the book values.
Assume a portfolio is worth $70,000, consisting of X, Y, and cash. Also assume you invested $35,000 in X, $14,000 in Y and the rest in cash, and that X and Y have betas of 1.45 and 0.80 respectively. Calculate the portfolio beta. (Provide numerical answer to 3 decimal places.)
Answer:
0.885
Explanation:
Beta measures systemic risk. The higher beta is, the higher the systemic risk and the higher the compensation demanded for by investors
The portfolio's beta can be determined by adding together the weighted beta of each stock in the portfolio
weighed beta of a stock = percentage of the stock in the portfolio x beta of the stock
Percentage of x = $35,000 / 70,000 = 0.5 = 50%
Percentage of y = $14,000 / 70,000 = 0.2 = 20%
Percentage of cash = 100 - (50 + 20) = 30%
Cash usually have a beta of zero
portfolio beta = (0.5 x 1.45) + (0.2 x 0.8) + (0.3 x 0) =
0.725 + 0.16 + 0 = 0.885
0.725

Suppose the Alaskan king crab harvest is unregulated and any person with a crab boat and some diesel fuel can go offshore, lower a crab pot, and harvest king crab. As a result, this common resource is overused. Which policy choice might produce the socially optimal king crab harvest
Answer: A. Alaska auctions a limited number of licenses to harvest king crab.
Explanation:
The options include:
A. Alaska auctions a limited number of licenses to harvest king crab.
B. The U.S. and Canadian governments remove trade barriers, which allows for more trade of products like king crab.
C. Alaska removes taxes on diesel fuel, which lowers the price of diesel.
D. Alaska subsidizes the purchase of crab boats.
The socially optimal level of output will be achieved when there's allocative efficiency. It is the level whereby market failure is curtailed.
The policy choice that might produce the socially optimal king crab harvest is for Alaska to auction a limited number of licenses to harvest king crab.
This will help in the reduction at which the resource is overused as there'll be regulation and reduction in the number of person that can harvest king crab.
Crane and Miller Manufacturing is trying to determine the equivalent units for conversion costs with 10900 units of ending work in process at 80% completion and 31600 physical units. There are no beginning units in the department. Conversion costs occur evenly throughout the entire production period. What are the equivalent units for conversion costs for the current period?
Answer:
the equivalent units for the conversion cost is 29,420 units
Explanation:
The computation of the equivalent units for the conversion cost is shown below:
= units completed + ending inventory units
= (31,600 units - 10,900 units) + 80% of 10,900 units
= 20,700 units + 8,720 units
= 29,420 units
hence, the equivalent units for the conversion cost is 29,420 units

On January 1, 2020, Oregon Company issued eight-year bonds with a face value of $6,000,000 and a stated interest rate of 6%, payable semiannually onJune 30 and December 31. Determine the issue price of the bonds, assuming the bonds were sold to yield 8% (require use of present value tables):
Answer:
the issue price of the bond is $5,301,360
Explanation:
The computation of the issue price of the bond is shown below/;
= (semiannual interest payment × present value annuity (16,4%)) + (face value × present value factor (4%,16))
= (($6,000,000 × 6% ÷ 2) × 11.652) + ($6,000,000 × .534)
= $2,097,360 + $3,204,000
= $5,301,360
Hence, the issue price of the bond is $5,301,360

Where;
a-1. If interest rates suddenly rise by 2 percent, what is the percentage change in the price of Bond Bill?
YTM = (6.2% + 2%) / Number of semiannuals in a year = 8.2% / 2 = 4.1%
NPER = Number of semiannuals to maturity = 5 * 2 = 10
PMT = Payment = Coupon rate * Face value = (6.2% / Number of semiannuals in a year) * 1000 = (6.2% / 2) * 1000 = $31
FV = Face value = Initial price of Bond Bill = $1,000
Substituting all the values into equation (1), we have:
New price of Bond Bill = -PV(4.1%, 10, 31, 1000)
Inputting =-PV(4.1%, 10, 31, 1000) in a cell in an excel file (Note: As done in the attached excel file), we have:
New price of Bond Bill = $919.29
Percentage change in the price of Bond Bill = ((New price of Bond Bill - Initial price of Bond Bill) / Initial price of Bond Bill) * 100 = (($919.29 - $1,000) / $1,000) * 100 = -8.07%
a-2. If interest rates suddenly rise by 2 percent, what is the percentage change in the price of Bond Ted?
YTM = (6.2% + 2%) / Number of semiannuals in a year = 8.2% / 2 = 4.1%
NPER = Number of semiannuals to maturity = 25 * 2 = 50
PMT = Payment = Coupon rate * Face value = (6.2% / Number of semiannuals in a year) * 1000 = (6.2% / 2) * 1000 = $31
FV = Face value = Initial price of Bond Ted = $1,000
Substituting all the values into equation (1), we have:
New price of Bond Ted = -PV(4.1%, 50, 31, 1000)
Inputting =-PV(4.1%, 50, 31, 1000) in a cell in an excel file (Note: As done in the attached excel file), we have:
New price of Bond Ted = $788.81
Percentage change in the price of Bond Ted = ((New price of Bond Ted - Initial price of Bond Bill Ted) / Initial price of Bond Ted) * 100 = (($788.81 - $1,000) / $1,000) * 100 = -21.12%
b-1. If rates were to suddenly fall by 2 percent instead, what would the percentage change in the price of Bond Bill be then?
YTM = (6.2% - 2%) / Number of semiannuals in a year = 4.2% / 2 = 2.1%
NPER = Number of semiannuals to maturity = 5 * 2 = 10
PMT = Payment = Coupon rate * Face value = (6.2% / Number of semiannuals in a year) * 1000 = (6.2% / 2) * 1000 = $31
FV = Face value = Initial price of Bond Bill = $1,000
Substituting all the values into equation (1), we have:
New price of Bond Bill = -PV(2.1%, 10, 31, 1000)
Inputting =-PV(2.1%, 10, 31, 1000) in a cell in an excel file (Note: As done in the attached excel file), we have:
New price of Bond Bill = $1,089.36
Percentage change in the price of Bond Bill = ((New price of Bond Bill - Initial price of Bond Bill) / Initial price of Bond Bill) * 100 = (($1,089.36 - $1,000) / $1,000) * 100 = 8.94%
b-2. If rates were to suddenly fall by 2 percent instead, what would the percentage change in the price of Bond Ted be then?
rate = new YTM = (6.2% - 2%) / Number of semiannuals in a year = 4.2% / 2 = 2.1%
NPER = Number of semiannuals to maturity = 25 * 2 = 50
PMT = Payment = Coupon rate * Face value = (6.2% / Number of semiannuals in a year) * 1000 = (6.2% / 2) * 1000 = $31
FV = Face value = Initial price of Bond Ted = $1,000
Substituting all the values into equation (1), we have:
New price of Bond Ted = -PV(2.1%, 50, 31, 1000)
Inputting =-PV(2.1%, 50, 31, 1000) in a cell in an excel file (Note: As done in the attached excel file), we have:
New price of Bond Ted = $1,307.73
Percentage change in the price of Bond Ted = ((New price of Bond Ted - Initial price of Bond Bill Ted) / Initial price of Bond Ted) * 100 = (($1,307.73 - $1,000) / $1,000) * 100 = 30.77%
