Suppose you are committed to owning a $230,000 Ferrari. If you believe your mutual fund can achieve an annual return of 10.95 percent, and you want to buy the car in 12 years on the day you turn 30, how much must you invest today

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$66,101.45

Explanation:

To find the amount of money that you must invest today, you have to use the formula to calculate the present value:

PV=FV/(1+i)^n

PV= present value

FV= future value= 230,000

i= interest rate= 10.95%

n= number of periods of time= 12

PV=230,000/(1+0.1095)^12

PV=230,000/(1.1095)^12

PV=230,000/3.4795

PV=66,101.45

According to this, the answer is that you must invest today $66,101.45.

Answer 2

Answer:

The amount to be invested today, present value = $66,099.80  Explanation:

The amount to be invested today is the present of an investment  of 12 years which would produce a future value of $230,000 where interest rate is 10.95%.

The formula below would be of help;

PV = FV× (1+r)^(-n)

PV - Present Value, FV- Future value, n- number of years

PV = ?, FV- 230,000 , r- 10.95%, n- 12

PV = 230,000 × (1.1095)^(-12)

PV =  66,099.80  

The amount to be invested today, present value = $66,099.80

XYZ, Inc. just sold 700,000 shares in a public offering for an offering price of $24 per share. The underwriting fee was 7.50% of the issue’s total value based on the offering price. As soon as the shares were issued, the price jumped to $36 per share. What are the explicit, implicit, and total costs of the issue?

Answers

Answer:

explicit costs = $1,260,000

the implicit costs = $8,400,000

total costs = $9,660,000

Explanation:

the underwriter's explicit costs = total number of shares x initial price x % charged by underwriter = 700,000 x $24 x 7.5% = $1,260,000

the implicit costs = (market price - initial price) x total number of shares = ($36 - $24) x 700,000 = $8,400,000

total costs = $9,660,000

Managers are important members of the organization. Within an organization, there are managers at four levels: top, middle, first-line, and team leaders.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the option B: False.

Explanation:

To begin with, the managers are one of the most important parts of the organization due to the fact that they have the task to plan, organize, direct and control the operations of the company. There are at least three levels in which the managers can go and have their work done, like the management area(high), the department areas(middle) and the operations area(low): However, that will depend on the organization and its size due to that an organization can only have managers at one level.

Variable Overhead Spending and Efficiency Variances, Columnar and Formula Approaches Aretha Company provided the following information: Standard variable overhead rate (SVOR) per direct labor hour $4.70 Actual variable overhead costs $335,750 Actual direct labor hours worked (AH) 69,200 Actual production in units 14,000 Standard hours (SH) allowed for actual units produced 70,000 Required: 1. Using the columnar approach, calculate the variable overhead spending and efficiency variances. Enter amounts as positive numbers and select Favorable (F) or Unfavorable (U).

Answers

Answer:

Variable overhead spending variance $10,380 U

Variable efficiency variances $ 3,760.00 F

Total variable overhead variance $ 6,620.00 U

Explanation:

1. Calculation for the variable overhead spending and efficiency variances

AH * AH

69,200*4.85=335,620.00

AH* SR

69,200 * 4.7=325,240.00

SH * SR

70,000*4.7= 329,000.00

Hence, the variable overhead spending will be:

AH * AH- AH* SR

=335,620.00-325,240.00= $10,380 U

The efficiency variances will be:

AH* SR- SH * SR =325,240.00- $329,000.00 =$ 3,760.00 F

2.Calculation for the variable overhead spending variance.

Using this formula

Variable overhead efficiency variance = SR × (AH – SH)

Let plug in the formula

SR = Standard variable manufacturing overhead rate = $4.70

AH = Actual hours worked during the period = 69,200

SH = Standard hours allowed for actual output or production = 70,000

Variable overhead efficiency variance = SR × (AH – SH) = 4.70 (69,200 -70000)

= 4.70* 800 =3,760.00 F

3.

Using this formula

Variable Overhead Spending variance = (Actual Rate * Actual Hour - Standard Rate * Actual Hour )

= AH (AR - SR)

Let plug in the formula

AR = 33,5750/69200

= $ 4.8

AH = Actual hours worked during the period = 69,200

SR = Standard variable manufacturing overhead rate = $4.70

Variable overhead spending variance = 69200 ( 4.85 - 4.70)

$ 10,380.00 U

4. Calculation for total variable overhead variance

Using this formula

Total Variable Overhead variance = (Actual Hour * Actual Rate - Standard Hour * Standard Rate)

Let plug in the formula

AH = Actual hours worked during the period = 69,200

SH = Standard hours allowed for actual output or production = 70,000

AR = 335750/69200 = $ 4.85

SR = Standard variable manufacturing overhead rate = $4.70

Total Variable Overhead variance = (69200*4.85) - (70000*4.7)

=$ 6,620.00 U

(Click to select) d. Behavioral economists suggest that brand loyalty can be a source of monopoly power for producers. (Click to select)

Answers

Answer:

a. Students end up doing "all-nighters" just to finish a term paper.- Planning Fallacy

The Planning fallacy is a tendency by humans to overestimate how much time they have to complete a project due to them having an optimism bias when projecting how much time will be needed. The students thought they had time to study up until they didn't.

b. The so-called "Lake Wobegon effect" where everyone in a group claims to be above average. - The Overconfidence Effect

The overconfidence effect leads people to believe that their abilities exceed what they actually are and can be called the  Lake Wobegon effect which was derived from the name of a fictional town where every child was supposedly above average.

c. People who are usually very neat tend to litter in areas that are covered with graffiti.- Framing effect

The Framing effect refers to a cognitive tendency by people to make decisions based on the how it is presented to them. The places covered with graffiti appeared dirty to them so them chose to litter there.

d. Behavioral economists suggest that brand loyalty can be a source of monopoly power for producers. - Status quo bias

This supports the old saying, "if it isn't broke, don't fix it". This bias is an emotional one that leads people to stay in a condition that they are used to because it is what they know and anything else might be considered a loss to them. Therefore companies can use these to always sell to a group of people if those people have brand loyalty.

Wesimann Co. issued 12-year bonds a year ago at a coupon rate of 7.8 percent. The bonds make semiannual payments and have a par value of $1,000. If the YTM on these bonds is 6.1 percent, what is the current bond price? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

Price of bond  =1,143.18

Explanation:

The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV

The value of bond for Wesimann Co can be worked out as follows:

Step 1  

PV of interest payments

Semi annul interest payment  

= 7.8% × 1000 × 1/2 = 39

Semi-annual yield = 6.1%/2 = 3.05  % per six months

Total period to maturity (in months)

= (2 × 12) = 24 periods (Note it was sold 12  years ago)

PV of interest =  

39  × (1- (1+0.0305)^(-24)/) 0.0305 = 656.94

Step 2  

PV of Redemption Value

= 1,000 × (1.0305)^(-24) = 486.237

Price of bond

=   656.94 +486.23 = 1,143.179

Price of bond  =1,143.18

Answers

Answer:

a. Private Property Rights

b. Political Stability and Rule of Law

c. Open and Competitive Market

d. Private Property Rights

Explanation:

a. By defining private property Rights and giving people a chance to own resources, Individuals will strive to own more and more of such rights and so will produce as much as they can so as to afford such rights.

b. When a nation is Politically stable and respects the Rule of Law, investment payoffs are easier to predict than in a country where instability can threaten to degrade investments such that the payoffs will be lost. For example, think of all the Western firms that lost money when the Shah of Iran was overthrown by the Ayatollah.

c. Specialization is more likely to occur in nations with Open and Competitive Market. An Open Market means that goods can come in from the outside easily. This will have the effect of the country being able to import goods that cost a lot to produce locally and instead focus on producing those goods that they are well adept at producing. This is Specialization. Also as a result of competition, companies will strive to find better ways to make profit above competitors and come up with more efficient ways of Production as a result.

d. The Xiaogang Agreement refers to an agreement by farmers in Xiaogang to subdivide their lands in secret so that they would each own a small part of it. As a result, the farmers had an incentive to produce for themselves as they now owned resources that they could benefit from. This right to Private Property led to a huge boom in Agriculture.

The beta of an all equity firm is 2.3. If the firm changes its capital structure to 50% debt and 50% equity using 8% debt financing, what will be the equity beta of the levered firm? The beta of debt is 0.2. (Assume no taxes.) Provide your answer with 2 digits after the comma.

Answer:

4.40

Explanation:

Equity beta, is a term in business or economics, which is.oftemr referred to as Levered beta, which measures the risk of a firm in respect to debt and equity in its capital structure to the volatility of the stock market.

Therefore, Formula for equity beta is giving as = βE = equity firm + (debt/equity)(equity firm - beta of debt)

Given that, equity firm = 2.3

Capital structure to debt = 50% = 0.5

Capital structure to equity = 50% = 0.5

Beta of debt = 0.2

βE = 2.3 + (0.5/0.5)(2.3 - 0.2) =

2.3 + (0.5/0.5)(2.3 - 02) =

= 2.3 + (1)(2.1)=

2.3 + 2.1= 4.40

Hence, the final is 4.40

4. Which of the following types of bonds has the least default risk?
a. Municipal bonds
b. Corporate bonds
c. Treasury bonds

Answers

Answer:

a. Issuer

The entity that promises to make payments on the bond is the entity that issued the bond and they are therefore known as the Bond Issuer.

1. c. Corporate bonds

When a private company issues bonds, these bonds are known as Corporate Bonds. They often offer the most return of the 3 options as they are the riskiest.

2. b. Walmart

Walmart are the issuers of the bond. The rest are Lead Managers who are often Investment banks who help in the facilitation of Bond Issuance.

3. a. When interest rates increase, the prices of U.S. Treasuries decline.

Bond prices and interest rates have an inverse relationship. This is because of the fixed interest payment that bonds offer which can either be attractive or not to investors depending on market rates. For instance, when interest rates are high, other investment vehicles will offer more returns than bonds and so people will divest from them which will reduce their price.

4. c. Treasury bonds

US Treasury and indeed Government bonds on average are the least riskiest of the options listed as they are backed by the full weight and faith of the central government and all its assets. If all else fails, the Central Government could simply print more money to pay off the bonds.

Based on the following information for Builtrite, calculate the current value of its stock if the current dividend is $3.00, a projected super normal growth for three years at 20%, the growth rate after year 3 should remain constant at 9% and you want to earn a 16% annual return. What would you be willing to pay for Builtrite stock?

Answers

Answer:

$61.35

Explanation:

The computation of the current value of the stock is shown below:

Current Dividend = D0 = $3.00

Super Normal growth for next 3 years = g1 = 20% or 0.20

Growth Rate after 3 year = g2 = 9% or 0.09

Required rate of Return = r = 16% or 0.16

Now

as we know that

Value of Share (P0) is

= [D1 ÷ (1 + r)] + [D2 ÷ (1 + r)^2] + [D3 ÷ (1 + r)^3] + [P3 ÷ (1 +r )^3]

Where

D1 = Dividend in year 1

D2 = Dividend in year 2

D3 = Dividend in year 3

P3 = Value of share at the end of year 3

Now first we have to compute the P3 value which is

P3 = D4 ÷ (r - g2)

= D0 × (1 + g1)^3 (1 + g2) ÷(r - g2)

= $3.00 × (1 + 0.20)^3 (1 + 0.09) ÷ (0.16-0.09)

= $5.65056

Now  

Value of Share (P0) is

= [D1 ÷ (1 + r)] + [D2 ÷ (1 + r)^2] + [D3 ÷ (1 + r)^3] + [P3 ÷ (1 + r)^3]

= [D0 × (1 + g1) ÷ (1 + r)^1] + [D0 × (1 + g1)^2 ÷ (1 + r)^2] + [D0 × (1 + g1)^3 ÷ (1 + r)^3] + [P3 ÷ (1 + r)^3]

= [$3.00 × (1 + 0.20) ÷ (1 + 0.16)^1] + [$3.00 × (1 + 0.20)^2 ÷ (1 + 0.16)^2] + [$3.00 × (1 + 0.20)^3 ÷ (1 + 0.16)^3] + [$5.65056 ÷ (1 + 0.16)^3]

= $3.10 + $3.21 + $ 3.32 + $51.72

= $61.35

A production line at V. J.​ Sugumaran's machine shop has three stations. The first station can process a unit in 9 minutes. The second station has three identical​ machines, each of which can process a unit in 15 minutes​ (each unit only needs to be processed on one of the three ​machines). The third station can process a unit in 7 minutes. Which station is the bottleneck station?

Answers

Answer:

Station 1 is a bottleneck station because the processing time taken to process the product in such station is 9 minute when compared with Station 2 and Station 3

Explanation:

Station 1 = Processing time is 9 minutes

Station 2 = Processing time is 5 minutes per unit (15 minutes / 3  machines)

Station 3 = Processing time is 7 minutes

Thus, the Station 1 is the bottleneck station with a bottleneck time of 9 minutes per unit.

Prescott Bank offers you a five-year loan for $55,000 at an annual interest rate of 7.25 percent. What will your annual loan payment be? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

Annual loan payment = $13,146.78

Explanation:

Loan Amortization: A loan repayment method structured such that a series of equal periodic installments will be paid for certain number of periods to offset both the loan principal amount and the accrued interest.

The monthly equal installment is calculated as follows:  

Monthly equal installment= Loan amount/Monthly annuity factor  

Monthly annuity factor  

=( 1-(1+r)^(-n))/r  

r- Monthly interest rate (r)  

= 7.25%/12= 0.604 %  

n- Number of months ( n) in 5 years  

= 12* 6 = 60  

Annuity factor  

= ( 1- (1.00604)^(-60)/0.00604= 50.2024

Monthly installment= 55,000 /50.2024 = $1,095.56

 Monthly installment = $1,095.56

Annual loan payment = monthly installment × 12

Annual loan payment =$1,095.56 ×12=13,146.78

Annual loan payment = $13,146.78

nterest rates on 2-year Treasury securities are currently 6.0%, while 6-year Treasury securities yield 6.5%. If the pure expectations theory is correct, what does the market believe that 4-year securities will be yielding 2 years from now

Answers

Answer:

The market believes that 4-years from now, the 4-year securities will be 6.75%

Explanation:

We proceed as follows using the pure expectations theory .

The theory states that the future rates are exclusively represented by the forward rate.

Mathematically;

(1 + .065)^6 = (1 + .^206)2 * (1 + x)^4

1.4591 = 1.1236 * (1 + x)^4

Divide both sides by 1.1236

1.2986 = (1 + x)^4

Take both sides to the 1/4 power to get rid of the power of 4

1.0675= 1 + x

x = .0675 or 6.75%

Stocks are shares of ownership in a company. A stock certificate represents stock ownership. It specifies the name of the company, the number of shares owned, and the type of stock it represents. Today, stock is generally held electronically; that is, the owners don't get a paper certificate unless they specifically want to hold the certificates themselves.
Please evaluate the following statements from the standpoint of the issuing company and the place each statement in the category of Advantages or Disadvantages Disadvantage
Advantages Dividends
1. Repaid
2. Shareholders
3. Future Buy Back
4. Net Profit After Taxes
5. One Vote Per Share

Answers

Answer:

Advantages

Dividends

These are payments to shareholders as a way to share the profits the company has accumulated.

This is an advantage to the issuing company because they are usually not under any obligation to pay Dividends with respect to common Equity. As a result profits can be plowed back into the company to increase profitability.

Repaid

This refers to the fact that shareholders do not have to be repaid for their investment like debt holders are. Stock Holders bought a piece of the company instead of loaning money to the company so they do not have to be paid back. This is an advantage because it frees up Cashflow for the company as well as allowing it to maintain a better credit rating due to lower debts.

Future Buy-Back

This is a clause inherent in most shares. It means that the Issuing company can choose to buy back the stock at a given time in future.

This is an Advantage because it allows the Issuing company to regain control of the company at a future date.

Disadvantages.

Shareholders

Shareholders are people or entities who buy shares in the Issuing company. As such, they are owners in the company and have voting rights on decisions that the company makes. This is a disadvantage because it means loss of Independence for the company who now legally have to take the opinions of shareholders into account.

Net Profit After Tax

This is money that the company has after paying off interests and then taxes. This is the money that the company retains. Having shareholders means that a company may have to pay shareholders from this amount instead of retaining all of it thereby making it at a disadvantage to the Issuing company.

One Vote per Share

This means that every shareholder has a vote for every share they hold in the company. This means that Shareholders therefore have a say in the affairs of the company. This is a disadvantage to the Issuing company because it means a loss of Independence for them when decisions need to be made.

The profit leverage effect (ratio) is calculated by A. dividing 1.0 by the profit margin. B. dividing pretax earnings by the cost of goods sold. C. dividing sales by the cost of goods sold. D. none of the above

Answers

Answer:

D. none of the above

Explanation:

The profit leverage effect shows that in order to increase net profits, it is better and more efficient to reduce operating expenses rather than increasing total net sales revenue. I.e. a $1 decrease in costs increases operating profits by $1, which is much more than the increase resulting from increasing sales by $1.

Currently, the yield curve is ascending. A customer believes that the Federal Reserve will start to tighten credit by raising short-term interest rates; and also believes that long term yields will move downwards from current levels because of record demand for long-term Treasury obligations by pension funds. To profit from this, the best recommendation would be to

Answers

Answer:

Short-selling long-term bonds and taking long position on short-term assets

Explanation:

When the yield curve ascends, the long-term bond's price will go down. Hence, do short-sell the long-term bonds. On the other hand, short-term asset's price will be depreciated because Fed tightens credit and raise short-term rate, which is the chance to purchase and make profits from capital gains.

Financial leverage: Group of answer choices is the ratio of a firm's revenues to its fixed expenses. is equal to the market value of a firm divided by the firm's book value. increases the potential return to the stockholders. is inversely related to the level of debt. increases as the net working capital increases.

Answers

Answer: Increases the potential return to the stockholders.

Explanation:

Financial Leverage is the use of more debt to fund company assets. This can lead to higher potential returns to the Stockholders if the interest rate attached to the debt is less than the Company's required rate of return. That way, the difference between the rates will bring about a positive return for shareholders.

Also, having more debt provides a sort of tax shield to the earnings of the Stockholders because Debt is Tax Deductible. This will therefore increase the earnings going to the Stockholders.

Consider a mutual fund with $200 million in assets at the start of the year and 10 million shares outstanding. The fund invests in a portfolio of stocks that provides dividend income at the end of the year of $2 million. The stocks included in the fund's portfolio increase in price by 8%, but no securities are sold and there are no capital gains distributions. The fund charges 12b-1 fees of 1%, which are deducted from portfolio assets at year-end. a. What is the fund's net asset value at the start and end of the year?

Answers

Answer:

At start = $20/share

At end = $21.384

Explanation:

DATA

ASSets at the start = $200m

Outstanding shares = 10m

Dividend income at the end = $2m

Gain in price = 8%

12b-1 fees = 1%

A.

Net assets at the start can be calculated by dividing assets at the start by outstanding shares

Net Assets value at start = Assets at start/Outstanding shares

Net Assets value at start = $200m/10m

Net Assets value at start = $20/share

Net Assets value at the end can be calculated by multiplying gain price with 12b-1 fees

Net assets value at the end = Gain Price x (1-12b-1 fees)

Net Assets value at the end = ($20x$1.08) x (1 - 0.01)

Net Assets value at the end = $21.6 x 0.99

Net Assets value at the end = $21.384

Brodrick Company expects to produce 20,000 units for the year ending December 31. A flexible budget for 20,000 units of production reflects sales of $400,000; variable costs of $80,000; and fixed costs of $150,000. The company instead produces and sells 26,000 units for the year. Assume that actual sales are $480,000, actual variable costs for the year are $112,000, and actual fixed costs for the year are $145,000.

A 5-year corporate bond yields 7.0%. A 5-year municipal bond (tax exempt bond) of equal risk yields 5.0%. Assume that the state tax rate is zero. At what federal tax rate are you indifferent between the two bonds?

Answers

Answer:

The tax rate is approximately(rounded to a whole) 29%

Explanation:

The federal tax that would make an investor indifferent between the 5-year corporate bond and the 5-year municipal bond can be derived by equating the return on the former to the taxable return of the latter as below:

5%=7%*(1-t)

where the t is the unknown tax rate

Note that the return on 5-year corporate bond is taxable while the return on the municipal bond is tax-free

5%=7%*(1-t)

5%/7%=1-t

0.7143  =1-t

t=1-0.7143  

t=29%
