Answers

Answer:

10.16%

Explanation:

The computation of the effective return for this investment is shown below:

Let us assume that we invested an amount in Australian dollars 100

The return is 8%

After one year, the amount is 108

Now the converting amount is 110.16 (108 × 102%)

Now the effective rate for this investment is

= 110.16 - 100

= 10.16%

Inventory records for Dunbar Incorporated revealed the following: Date Transaction Number of Units Unit Cost Apr. 1 Beginning inventory 470 $ 2.37 Apr. 20 Purchase 410 2.72 Dunbar sold 580 units of inventory during the month. Ending inventory assuming FIFO would be:

Answers

Answer:

Ending inventory= $816

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Apr. 1 Beginning inventory 470 $2.37

Apr. 20 Purchase 410 $2.72

Dunbar sold 580 units of inventory during the month.

To calculate the ending inventory under the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method, we need to use the cost of the last units incorporated into inventory.

Units in ending inventory= 880 - 580= 300

Ending inventory= 300*2.72= $816

D) a. 5.048% b.5.017%

Answers

Answer:

Bob and Alice want to remodel their bathroom in 4 years. They estimate the job will cost $35,000. How much must they invest now at an annual interest rate of 4% compounded quarterly to achieve their goal?

we need to use the present value formula:

present value = future value / (1 + interest rate)ⁿ = $35,000 / (1 + 1%)¹⁶ = $29,848.74

The Morenos invest $9000 in an account that grows to $11,000 in 4 years. What is the annual interest rate r if interest is compounded

a. Quarterly

$9,000 = $11,000 / (1 + r)¹⁶

(1 + r)¹⁶ = $11,000 / $9,000 = 1.2222

¹⁶√(1 + r) = ¹⁶√1.2222

1 + r = 1.01262

r = 0.01262 = 1.26% ⇒ quarterly interest rate

annual interest rate = 1.26% x 4 = 5.048%

b. Continuously

future value = present value x eᵃⁿ

future value = $11,000present value = $9,000e = 2.718a = interest rate ???n = 4 years

$11,000 = $9,000 x 2.718⁴ⁿ

2.718⁴ⁿ = $9,000 / $11,000 = 0.818181818

⁴√2.718⁴ⁿ  =  ⁴√0.818181818

2.718ⁿ = 0.95107

nlog2.718 = log0.95107

n 0.434249452 = -0.021787543

n = -0.021787543 / 0.434249452 = -0.05017, since n must be positive, then

n = 0.05017 = 5.017%

D) a. 5.048%    b. 5.017%

Suppose the wealth effect is such that a $10 change in wealth produces a $2 change in consumption at each level of income. Assume real estate prices tumble such that wealth declines by $160. Instructions: Enter your answers as whole numbers. a.What will be the new level of consumption at the $680 billion level of disposable income

Answers

Answer: $632 billion

Explanation:

The wealth effect is such that a $10 change in wealth produces a $2 change in consumption. This means that for every change in wealth, we can expect a change of;

= 2/10

= 20 % of the wealth figure in consumption.

Real Estate prices have tumbled and prices decreased by $160.

That means that consumption decreased by;

= 160 * 20%

= $32

At the $680 billion level of disposable income, Consumption was $664 billion. The new Consumption figure is therefore;

=  664 - 32

= $632 billion

For the question below, write an explanation of the short-run effect including the determinant of AD or AS that is causing the shift, the line that shifts (AD or AS), the direction of the shift (left or right), and the impact on output and price level (increase or decrease) and submit a properly drawn and labeled aggregate demand and aggregate supply graph for the scenario. Tourists flock to visit the major theme park's in Orlando, Florida.

Answers

Answer:

Tourists flock to visit the major theme park's in Orlando, Florida.

Determinant of AD: Consumer confidence is the best determinant in this case. Tourists flock the theme parks because households not only have enough money to spend on recreation, but also feel that they will continue to have enough money to make ends meet in the near future, otherwise they would not go to the parks, and instead would save the money.

Direction of the shift: the AD curve shifts to the right, because AD is increasing, and the AD curve increases when it shifts to the right.

Impact on output and price level: Output increases because consumer confidence, and as a result, consumer demand, is boosting aggregate demand.

Price level also increases, because demand is pushing the price of a good that has a relatively inelastic supply (the theme parks). In other words, demand is rising more than supply, and this increases the price.

In order to find the future worth, F, from a present amount, P, 5 years from now at an interest rate of 6 % per year, compounded quarterly, what interest rate must be used in the F/P factor, (F/P,i%,n), when n is 20 quarters

Answers

Answer:

Interest rate = 1.5%

Explanation:

Given:

Future value = F

Present value = P

Number of Year (n) = 5 year × 4 quarters = 20

Interest rate = 6 % per year = 6 / 4 = 1.5% = 0.015

Computation:

Future value = Present value[tex](1+i)^n[/tex]

F/P = (1+0.015)²⁰

F/P = 1.34685501

When n = 20 quarters

F/P = (1+i)²⁰

1.34685501 = (1+i)²⁰

i = 0.015

Interest rate = 1.5%

Instructions:
Compute the current ratio, current cash debt coverage, accounts receivable turnover, average collection period, inventory turnover, and days in inventory at the end of the current year.

Answers

Answer:Please see explanation for answers

Explanation:

A) Current Ratio    =   Current Assets / Current Liabilities

Total  Current Assets = $4,054million

Total Current Liabilities = $2,014million

Current Ratio = 4,054 / 2,014 = 2.01  : 1

B. Current Cash Debt Coverage Ratio =  Cash flow  Provided by Operating Activities / Average Current Liabilities

Average Current Liabilities = 2,014 + 1,601= 3,615 / 2 = $1,807.5

Current Cash Debt Coverage Ratio = 1,251 / 1,807.5 = 0.6921

C. Accounts receivable Turnover = Net  Sales / Average Accounts Receivables

Average Account Receivable = 2,035 + 1,942= 3,977 / 2 = $1,988.50million

Net  Sales = $8,258million  

Account Receivable Turnover = 8,258million / 1,988.50million = 4.15 Times

D. Average Collection Period: 365 / Account Receivable Turnover

Average Collection Period = 365 / 4.15 = 87.95 Days

E. Inventory Turnover = Cost of Goods Sold / Average Inventory

Cost of Goods Sold = 5,328million  ,

Average Inventory = 898 + 900 =1,798 / 2 = 899

Inventory Turnover = 5,328 / 899 = 5.93 Times

F. Days in Inventory = 365 / Inventory Turnover Ratio

Days in Inventory = 365 / 5.93 = 61.55 Days

B. $108,000
C. $41,000
D. $49,000

Answers

Answer:

B. $108,000

Explanation:

The computation of the total amount of long-term liabilities is shown below:-

Total amount of long-term liabilities = Long term notes payable (Due 2022) + Mortgage payable (Due 2023) + Bonds payable (Due 2024) + Long term liabilities

= $41,000 + $8,000 + $59,000

= $108,000

Therefore for computing the total amount of long-term liabilities we simply applied the above formula and we have not considered as they are not relevant and not covered into long-term liabilities as they all are current liabilities

c. Reason for the difference in the amount of the operating income in (a) and (b):

There is no difference in this case.  A difference would arise if there were  beginning and closing inventories from the different treatment of fixed production overheads, which are absorbed in the product costs.

Explanation:

Gallatin County Motors, Inc.'s income statement under absorption costing technique measures the cost of production and net income by taking into full account the full production costs, including fixed overheads.  It reports a gross profit figure which compares the full cost of production and the service revenue.

On the other hand, Gallatin County Motors, Inc.'s income statement under the variable costing technique measures the cost of production and net income by taking into account all the variable costs.  With this technique, a contribution margin is the difference between service revenue and variable costs.

Differences in the reported net income arise from the presence of beginning and ending inventory.  Another difference is that while absorption costing income statement reports a gross profit figure before net income, the variable costing income statement reports a contribution margin and, in addition, regards all fixed costs as period costs.

An income statement for Gallatin County Motors, Inc. uses an absorption costing approach to calculate the cost of production and net income by accounting for all production expenses, including fixed overheads.

It gives a gross profit statistic that compares the whole cost of manufacturing to the income from services.

The calculations of the net operating income have been attached below.

c. Reason for the discrepancy in operating income amounts in (a) and (b):

In this scenario, there is no distinction. If there were beginning and closing inventories, a difference would develop due to the different treatment of fixed production overheads, which are included in product costs.

This same existence between marking inventories creates differences in the recorded net income.

Another distinction is that, although an absorption costing income statement shows gross profit before net profit, a flexible budget income statement shows a contribution margin and treats all fixed expenses as period costs.

What action can a supervisor take to reinforce the desired change and create a work environment that nourishes successful people?

Answers

Answer:

Communicate the reasons for the change.

Explanation:

Remember, reinforcement involves not necessarily employing harsh measures, but communicating with a view to persuade into action.

Suppose Stark Ltd. just issued a dividend of $2.33 per share on its common stock. The company paid dividends of $2.00, $2.08, $2.15, and $2.26 per share in the last four years. If the stock currently sells for $55, what is your best estimate of the company's cost of equity capital using the arithmetic average growth rate in dividends?What if you use the geometric average growth rate?

Answers

Answer:

arithmetic average growth rate = (4% + 3.37% + 5.12% + 3.1%) / 4 = 3.9%

we need to find the required rate or return (RRR) in the following formula:

stock price = expected dividend / (RRR - growth rate)

expected dividend = $2.33 x 1.039 = $2.42stock price = $55growth rate = 0.039

55 = 2.42 / (RRR - 0.039)

RRR - 0.039 = 2.42 / 55 = 0.044

RRR = 0.083 = 8.3%

geometric average growth rate = [(1.04 x 1.0337 x 1.0512 x 1.031)¹/⁴] - 1 = 3.89%

again we need to find the required rate or return (RRR) in the following formula:

stock price = expected dividend / (RRR - growth rate)

expected dividend = $2.33 x 1.0389 = $2.42stock price = $55growth rate = 0.0389

55 = 2.42 / (RRR - 0.0389)

RRR - 0.0389 = 2.42 / 55 = 0.044

RRR = 0.0829 = 8.29%
