Present worth = [$200(P/A, 5%,9) + $200(P/G, 5%,9)(P/F, 5%,1)]
Present worth = $200*(7.108) + $200(26.127)(0.9524)]
Present worth = $200(33.235) * (0.9524)
Present worth = $6,647 * 0.9524
Present worth = $6330.6028
Present worth = $6,330.60
Equivalent uniform annual cost = Present worth (A/P, 5%,10)
Equivalent uniform annual cost = $6,330.60 (0.1295)
Equivalent uniform annual cost = $819.8130626
Equivalent uniform annual cost = $820
Zonk Company needs to raise $47.5 million to fund a new project. The company will sell shares at a price of $27.90 in a general cash offer and the company's underwriters will charge a spread of 6 percent. The direct flotation costs associated with the issue are $650,000. How many shares need to be sold?
Answer:
Zonk Company
The number of shares that needs to be sold is:
= 1,842,569 shares.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Amount needed to fund a new project = $47,500,000
Selling price per share = $27.90
Proceed per share after underwriter's spread = $26.132 ($27.80 * (1 - 0.06)
Underwriters spread per share = 6% * $27.80 = $1.668
Direct flotation costs = $650,000
Number of shares to float = ($47,500,000 + $650,000)/$26.132
= 1,842,569 shares
Expanded Proof:
Proceeds from share issue = $51,223,418 (1,842,569 * $27.80)
less underwriter's spread = 3,073,405 (1,842,569 * $1.668)
Net proceeds before flotation $48,150,013
less direct flotation costs = 650,000
Funds raised = $47,500,013
anta Corporation issued a bond on January 1 of this year with a face value of $1,000. The bond's coupon rate is 6 percent and interest is paid once a year on December 31. The bond matures in three years. The annual market rate of interest was 10 percent at the time the bond was sold. The following amortization schedule pertains to the bond issued: Cash Paid Interest Expense Amortization Balance January 1, Year 1 $901 December 31, Year 1 $60 $90 $30 931 December 31, Year 2 60 93 33 964 December 31, Year 3 60 96 36 1,000 Required: 1. What was the bond's issue price
Answer:
$901
Explanation:
The bond issue price is the item shown on the amortization schedule which is $901 in this case.
However, we could recompute the bond price using a financial calculator bearing in mind that the financial calculator would be set to its default end mode before making the following inputs:
N=3(number of annual coupons in 3 years)
PMT=60(annual coupon=face value*coupon rate=$1000*6%=$60)
I/Y=10(annual market rate of interest for the bond is 10%)
FV=1000(the face value is $1000)
CPT
PV=$900.53(closest to $901 when rounded to the nearest whole dollar amount)

It is important when regulating a market with a natural monopoly to maintain on going business incentives for the firm involved. A cost-plus approach to regulating a market does not provide this. What would a benefit to not utilizing a cost plus approach to regulation be
Answer:
The natural monopoly will have incentives for efficiency and innovation
Explanation:
Monopoly my be defined as taking or having an excessive control or charge over the trade of a particular commodity or product or the control over the supply of a particular product on the market by one particular group or person.
In the context, the cost-plus approach requires the monopoly in order to change the price which includes normal return to the average cost. So the monopolist does not have any incentive for innovating efficient technology so as to reduce its cost. Thus we can promote innovation and efficiency by not using the cost plus policy.
Hillary considers herself a shrewd commodities investor. She bought a May cotton contract (50,000 pounds) at a pound, and later sold it at a pound. What were her profit and her return on invested capital if her initial margin was and the size of a cotton futures contract is 50,000 pounds of cotton?
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the profit will be calculated as:
Profit = (Selling price - Buying Price) × Size
= ($0.6485 - $0.6264)*50,000
= $0.0221 × 5000
= $1,105
Then, the return on the invested capital will be:
= Profit/Initial Margin
= 1105/1060
= 1.0425
= 104.25%
The reserve requirement is 20%. Leroy receives $1,000 as a graduation present and deposits the money in his checking account. The bank does NOT want to hold excess reserves. Reference: Ref 14-5 (Scenario: Money Creation) Look at the scenario Money Creation. Immediately after the deposit, reserves _____ and demand deposits _____ by $1,000. Group of answer choices
Solution :
Given :
Reserve requirement = 20 %
Leroy receives = $1000
So the bank can hold [tex]$20\%$[/tex] of [tex]$1000$[/tex] as a reserve. That means, it is has to hold [tex]$200$[/tex] as reserves. So it can lend the remaining [tex]$800$[/tex].
[tex]$\text{Multiplier} = \frac{1}{\text{required reserve ratio}}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{1}{0.2}$[/tex]
= 5
Thus, the maximum expansion of money supply = 800 x 5
= 4000
Being Human, Inc., recently issued new securities to finance a new TV show. The project cost $14.5 million, and the company paid $775,000 in flotation costs. In addition, the equity issued had a flotation cost of 7.5 percent of the amount raised, whereas the debt issued had a flotation cost of 3.5 percent of the amount raised. If the company issued new securities in the same proportion as its target capital structure, what is the company’s target debt-equity ratio? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 4 decimal places, e.g., .1616.)
Answer: 1.54
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the company’s target debt-equity ratio will be:
The total costs will be:
= $14.5 million + $775000
= $15.275 million
Since amount needed = amount raised × (1-fT)
Therefore, 15.275 × (1-f) = 14.5
15.275 - 15.275f = 14.5
f = floatation costs = 5.074%
Therefore, 5.074% × (1 + D/E) = 7.5% + (D/E) × 3.5%
Solving for debt-equity ratio, the value will be = 1.54
An overly optimistic sales budget may result in Group of answer choices increases in selling prices late in the year. insufficient inventories. increased sales during the year. excessive inventories.
Answer:
excessive inventories.
Explanation:
If there is an overall optimistic sales budget so there would be the excessive inventories as the sales budget predicts that in the future the number of units is to be sold for the given period of time. And, when this budget would be optimistic so it over predicted the sales due to this there would be the chances of the excessive inventories
hence, the last option is correct
approximates the dollar cost of producing x units of a product. The manu- facturer believes it cannot make a profit when the marginal cost goes beyond $210. What is the most units the manufacturer can produce and still make a profit? What is the total cost at this level of production?
The question is incomplete. The complete question is :
A manufacturer believes that the cost function : [tex]$C(x) =\frac{5}{2}x^2+120 x+560$[/tex] approximates the dollar cost of producing x units of a product. The manu- facturer believes it cannot make a profit when the marginal cost goes beyond $210. What is the most units the manufacturer can produce and still make a profit? What is the total cost at this level of production?
Solution :
Given the cost function is :
[tex]$C(x) =\frac{5}{2}x^2+120 x+560$[/tex]
Now, Marginal cost = [tex]$\frac{d}{dx}C(x)$[/tex]
So, if the marginal cost = $ 210, then the manufacturer also makes a profit and if it goes beyond $ 210 than the manufacturer cannot make a profit.
Therefore, we have to equate : [tex]$\frac{d}{dx}C(x)= \$ 210$[/tex]
[tex]$\frac{d}{dx}C(x)= \frac{5}{2}(2x)+120 = 210$[/tex]
[tex]$5x + 120 = 210$[/tex]
[tex]$5x=210-120$[/tex]
[tex]$5x=90$[/tex]
[tex]$x=45$[/tex]
So when x = 45, then C(x) = $ 8042.5
Therefore, the manufacturer [tex]$\text{can make up}$[/tex] to 45 units and [tex]$\text{still makes a profit.}$[/tex] This leads to a total cost of $ 8042.5
In the market for gadgets, the supply curve is the typical upward-sloping straight line, and the demand curve is the typical downward-sloping straight line. The equilibrium quantity in the market for gadgets is 320 per month when there is no tax. Then a tax of $6 per gadget is imposed. As a result, the government is able to raise $1,500 per month in tax revenue. We can conclude that the equilibrium quantity of widgets has fallen by
Answer:
70 units
Explanation:
Quantity = Tax revenue / Tax per unit
Quantity = $1,500/$6
Quantity = 250
Change in Quantity = 320 - 250
Change in Quantity = 70 units
So, the quantity decreased 70 units per money. Hence, we can conclude that the equilibrium quantity of widgets has fallen by 70 units.

Dean Company has sales of $163,000, and the break-even point in sales dollars is $102,690. Determine the company's margin of safety percentage. Round answer to the nearest whole number. fill in the blank 1 %
Answer:
37%
Explanation:
The Dean company has sales of $163,000
The break even point in sales dollars is $102,690
Therefore, the company's margin of safety can be calculated as follow;
Margin of safety = (Sales - Break even sales ) / Sales
Margin of safety = ($163,000 - $102,690) / $163,000
Margin of safety = $60,310 / $163,000
Margin of safety = 0.37 × 100
Margin of safety = 37%

View Point Industries has forecasted a rate of return of 20.00% if the economy booms (25.00% probability); a rate of return of 15.00% if the economy is in a growth phase (45.00% probability); a rate of return of 2.50% if the economy is in decline (20.00% probability); and a rate of return of -15.00% if the economy is in a depression (10.00% probability). What is View Point's standard deviation of returns
Answer: 10.46%
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, View Point's standard deviation of returns will be calculated thus:
Firstly, we have to calculate the expected rate of return which will be the respective returns multiplied by the respective probabilties and this will be:
= (0.2 × 0.25) + (0.15 × 0.45) + (0.025 × 0.2) + (-0.15 × 0.10)
=10.75%
Then, we'll calculate the total probability and this will be:
= [0.25 × (20 - 10.75)²] + [0.45 × (15 - 1.75)²] + [0.2 × (2.5 - 10.75)²] + [0.1 × (-15 - 10 75)²]
= 21.3906 + 8.1281 + 13.6125 + 66.3063
= 109.7375%
Therefore, View Point's standard deviation of returns will be:
= [Total of Probability × (Return-Mean)²/✓Total probability
=10.46%

Bethany’s regular hourly wage rate is $12, and she receives an hourly rate of $18 for work in excess of 40 hours. During a January pay period, Bethany works 50 hours. Bethany’s federal income tax withholding is $99, and she has no voluntary deductions. Compute Bethany’s gross earnings and net pay for the pay period. Assume that the FICA tax rate is 7.65%.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the gross earnings and the net pay is shown below;
Gross pay = Regular pay + Overtime pay
= (40 × $12) + (50 - 40) × $18
= $480 + $180
= $660
Net pay = Gross pay - FICA taxes - Federal income taxes withholding
= $660 - ($660 × 7.65%) - $99
= $510.51
Hence, the same is to be considered and relevant

On Monday, May 15, 2017, you bought (traded) the XZX, Inc. 8.25% corporate bonds with a trading value of $96.50 price. The coupon payments are paid on March 31 and September 30. Using the 360-day accrual basis, calculate the invoice price of the bond. Please use T+3 to calculate the settlement day.
Answer:
$97.53
Explanation:
Coupon rate = 8.25%
Flate price of bond= $96.50
FV of bond (assumed) = $100
Purchase date = May 15
Last coupon payment was made on March 31, Accrued Interest = Face value * Days since last payment * Interest rate / Days in current coupon period
Accrued Interest = Face value * Days since last payment * Interest rate / Days in current coupon period
Accrued Interest = $100 * (May 15-March 31) * 8.25% / (2*(September 30-March 31))
Accrued Interest = $100*45*8.25% / (2*180)
Accrued Interest = $1.03
Invoice Value = Flate price + Accrued Interest
Invoice Value = $96.50 + $1.03
Invoice Value = $97.53

. It is good field practice to double-check and possibly triple-check the ____ decision, since the cost of repairing an improperly cut roof can be very high
Answer:
It is good field practice to double-check and possibly triple-check the location decision, since the cost of repairing an improperly cut roof can be very high
Explanation:
Location decision can be described as the process of selecting a business location. Its major goal is to select the best options from a variety of options.
How easy or difficult it is for customers to reach a business is the most crucial factor that influences the success of a business. Customers frequently abandon businesses that are difficult to reach. Again, it is important to think about the target clients of the business and choose a location that will make it easier for them to locate the business.
Therefore, it is good field practice to double-check and possibly triple-check the location decision, since the cost of repairing an improperly cut roof can be very high. This implies the negative effect of a bad location decision may be too high for the business to bear.

Explanation:
Nick's Marine Company (NMC) currently has a stock price per share of $38. If NMC's cost of equity capital (the discount rate for equity) is 15.2% and capital gains rate (gain/loss in prices relative to today's price) for the next year is expected to be 11.4%, the dividend in the upcoming year (t = 1) should be?
Answer:
$ 1.44
Explanation:
Given :
The stock price of 1 share = $ 38
The cost of equity capital, r = 15.2%
The capital gains rate for the next year, g = $ 11.4
Therefore, as per the dividend discount model,
The price per share = [tex]$\frac{D}{r-g}$[/tex]
[tex]$\$ 38=\frac{D}{(0.152-0.114)}$[/tex]
[tex]$\$ 38=\frac{D}{0.038}$[/tex]
D = 38 x 0.038
= 1.44
Therefore, the dividend = $ 1.44
GenX has a target capital structure of 40 percent common stock, 5 percent preferred stock, and 55 percent debt. Its cost of equity is 22 percent, the cost of preferred stock is 8.5 percent, and the pre-tax cost of debt is 8 percent. What is the firm's WACC given a tax rate of 35 percent
Answer:
12.085 %
Explanation:
WACC = Cost of Equity x Weight of Equity + Cost of Preference Stock x Weight of Preference Stock + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt
Remember to use the after tax cost of debt :
after tax cost of debt = interest x ( 1 - tax rate)
= 8.00 % x (1 - 0.35)
= 5.20 %
therefore,
WACC = 22.00 % x 0.40 + 8.50 % x 0.05 + 5.20 % x 0.55
= 12.085 %
thus
the firm's WACC given a tax rate of 35 percent is 12.085 %
