Answer: 12.5%
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that the State of Adaven issued $50 million of perpetual bonds in 1990 and that the bonds were issued in $100 denominations with an annual coupon interest rate of 5%.
The rate of return or current yield on these bonds if they are purchased at the current price of $40 will be calculated as:
= (5% × $100)/$40
= $5/$40
= 0.125 or 12.5%
Demand forecasting is the process of creating statements about ____________ of demand that are ______________.
a. future realizations, currently uncertain
b. current uncertainties, future realized
c. current realizations, future realized
d. future uncertainties, currently realized
Answer:
a. future realizations, currently uncertain
Explanation:
Demand forecasting is the process where the demand is forecasted based on the past sales so that the estimation of the customer demand could be done. It tells the value of the goods and services that the customer will buy in near future
So according to the given options, the first option is correct as it is based on the future i.e. totally uncertain
Therefore the first option is to be chosen
Suppose the demand for roses increases from 500 to 600 stems when income rises from $10,000 to $20,000. Income elasticity for roses is:__________
Answer:
Demand Income % Δ in Demand % Δ in Income Elasticity
500 10000
600 20000 18.18% 66.67% 0.2727
The formula for midpoint elasticity = ((600-500)/((600+500)/2))/((20000-10000)/((20000+10000)/2)) = 0.2727
As the elasticity value is 0.2727 is less than 1, the good is slightly elastic and the good is normal good as the demand increases with the increase in income.
A company reported the following amounts and balances: Beginning capital balance $45,000, Net Sales $420,000, Cost of Goods Sold $273,000, Total Expenses $112,000, Net Income $35,000, Ending Cash Balance $22,000, Withdrawals $7,200, Ending Accounts Receivable $27,000. What is the Ending Capital Balance?
a. $94,600
b. $38,200
c. $72,800
d. $49,600
Answer:
c. $72,800
Explanation:
ending capital balance = beginning capital balance + net income - withdrawals = $45,000 + $35,000 - $7,200 = $72,800
Ending capital balance refers to total owners' capital balance after the accounting period is closed. Net income increases owners' capital while withdrawals or dividends decrease it.
Knapp Development's trial balance shows $155,000 face value of bonds with a discount balance of $2,800. The bonds mature in 10 years. How will the bonds be presented on the balance sheet?
Answer:
D. Bonds payable $153,200 (net of $1,800 discount) will be listed as a long-term liability."
Explanation:
Options are A. Bonds payable $155,000 will be listed as a long-term liability. A $1,800 discount on bonds payable will be listed as a current liability. B. Bonds payable $155,000 will be listed as a long-term liability. A $1,800 discount on bonds payable will be listed as a contra current liability. C. Bonds payable $155,000 will be listed as a long-term liability. D. Bonds payable $153,200 (net of $1,800 discount) will be listed as a long-term liability."
Bonds payable are maturing in 10 years and hence are long term liabilities and would be shown at net values i.e. current value less of discount (155000-1800)=$153,200. Hence correct option is D.
If the net present value of a project is positive (non-zero), then the project's:________.a) PI will be less than 1. b) internal rate of return will exceed its required rate of return. c) costs exceed its benefits. d) discounted payback period will exceed the life of the project. e) payback period must equal the life of the project.
Answer:
b) internal rate of return will exceed its required rate of return.
Explanation:
The internal rate of return is the discount rate at which the NPV = 0. If the NPV is positive when calculated using the project's discount rate, then the IRR is going to be higher than the discount rate.
Option A is wrong because the profitability index (PI) of a project is calculated by dividing the present value of its cash flows by its cost. If the NPV is positive, it means that the present value of its cash flows will be greater than the costs, so the pI will be more than 1.
Option C is wrong because if the costs exceed the benefits, then the NPV will be negative.
Option D is wrong because that would mean that the NPV is negative.
Option E is something made up that doesn't make any sense.
1. You have a portfolio that is invested 21% in Stock A, 34% in Stock B, and 45% in Stock C. The betas of the stocks are .66, 1.21, and 1.50, respectively. What is the beta of the portfolio? a. 1.17.b. 1.12.c. 1.38.d. 1.00.e. 1.23.2. The risk-free rate is 3.7% and the market expected return is 11.6%. What is the expected return of a stock that has a beta of 1.22?
Answer:
1.
Portfolio Beta = 1.225 rounded off to 1.23
Option e is the correct answer.
2.
r = 0.13338 or 13.338% rounded off to 13.34%
Explanation:
1.
The portfolio beta is a function of the weighted average of the individual stocks' betas that form up the portfolio. To calculate the beta of a portfolio, we use the following formula,
Portfolio Beta = wA * Beta of A + wB * Beta of B + ... + wN * Beta of N
Where,
w is the weight of each stock
Portfolio Beta = 0.21 * 0.66 + 0.34 * 1.21 + 0.45 * 1.5
Portfolio Beta = 1.225 rounded off to 1.23
2.
Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.
The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,
r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)
Where,
rRF is the risk free rate
rM is the market return
r = 0.037 + 1.22 * (0.116 - 0.037)
r = 0.13338 or 13.338% rounded off to 13.34%

Explanation:
(Cost of debt) Sincere Stationery Corporation needs to raise $500,000 to improve its manufacturing plant. It has decided to issue a $1,000 par value bond with a 14 percent annual coupon rate and a 10-year maturity. The investors require a 9 percent rate of return. a. Compute the market value of the bonds. b. What will the net price be if flotation costs are 10.5 percent of the market price?
Answer:
a. $1,320.88
b. $1,182.19
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. For market value of the bond
Given that
Rate = 9%
NPER = 10
PMT = $1,000 * 14% = $140
FV = $1,000
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(RATE;NPER;PMT;FV;TYPE)
After applying the above formula, the present value is $1,320.88 i.e. equivalent to the market value of the bonds
b. Now the net price be
= Market price × (1 - flotation cost)
= $1,320.88 × (1 - 0.105)
= $1,182.19
A company desires to sell a sufficient quantity of products to earn a profit of $300000. If the unit sales price is $32, unit variable cost is $12, and total fixed costs are $800000, how many units must be sold to earn net income of $300000?a) 168,750 unitsb) 90,000 unitsc) 112,500 unitsd) 67,500 units
Answer:
55,000 units
Explanation:
Calculation for how many units must be sold
Using this formula
Units to be sold=Total fixed costs +Profit/(Sales price-Variable cost )
Let plug in the formula
Units to be sold =($800,000+$300,000)/($32 -$12)
Units to be sold=$1,100,000/$20
Units to be sold=55,000 units
Therefore units that must be sold to earn net income of $300000 will be 55,000 units

A firm is deciding between two different sewing machines. Technology A has fixed costs of $500 and marginal costs of $50 whereas Technology B has fixed costs of $250 and marginal costs of $100. At what quantity is the firm indifferent between the two technologies?
Answer: 5 units
Explanation:
Use equations.
Cost of Producing with Tech A;
= 500 + 50Q
Cost of Producing with Tech B;
= 250 + 100Q
Point of indifference;
500 + 50Q = 250 + 100Q
500 - 250 = 100Q - 50Q
50Q = 250
Q = 5 units
Which type of supply chain collaboration includes collaborative processes across the supply chain using a set of processes and technology models including a joint business plan, sales forecasting, order planning and forecasting, order generation, and order fulfillment?
Answer:
Collaborative Planning, Forecasting and Replenishment (CPFR)
Explanation:
Supply chain management can be defined as the effective and efficient management of the flow of goods and services as well as all of the production processes involved in the transformation of raw materials into finished products that meet the insatiable want and need of the consumers. Generally, the supply chain management involves all the activities associated with planning, execution and supply of finished goods and services to the consumers.
The fundamental principle of supply chain management is basically a collaboration between multiple firms. These multiple firms include a company that is saddled with the responsibility of manufacturing, a wholesaler, and a retailer who typically sells the products to the customers or consumers.
Basically, these three (3) firms or individuals are required to collaborate with each other so as to meet the needs of the customers in a timely manner or fashion and at a fair price too.
Collaborative Planning, Forecasting and Replenishment (CPFR) is a type of supply chain collaboration which includes collaborative processes across the supply chain using a set of processes and technology models including a joint business plan, sales forecasting, order planning and forecasting, order generation, and order fulfillment.

Hayden Company currently sells widgets for $160 per unit. The variable cost is $60 per unit and total fixed costs equal $240,000 per year. Sales are currently 40,000 units annually, and the income tax rate is 40 percent. Required: a. Calculate the contribution margin per unit. b. Calculate break-even in units. c. Calculate break-even in sales dollars d. Calculate the current after-tax net income. e. The company is considering a 10% drop in the selling price that it believes will raise units sold by 15%. Assuming all costs stay the same, what is the impact on income if this change is made? f. How many units need to be sold to earn a pre-tax operating income of $100,000?
Answer:
a. $100
b. 2,400 units
c. $380,952
d. $2,256,000
e. 15.90 %
f. 3,400 units
Explanation:
Contribution margin per unit
Contribution margin per unit = Sales per unit less Variable Cost per unit
Therefore,
Contribution margin per unit = $160 - $60
= $100
Break-even in units
The Breakeven units is the level of activity where a firm makes neither a profit nor a loss.
Break-even in units = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
Therefore,
Break-even in units = $240,000 ÷ $100
= 2,400 units
Break-even in sales dollars
Break-even in sales dollars = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution margin ratio
Where,
Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin ÷ Sales
= $100 ÷ $160
= 0.63
Therefore,
Break-even in sales dollars = $240,000 ÷ 0.63
= $380,952
After-tax net income
Contribution ( $100 × 40,000 ) $4,000,000
Less Fixed Cost ($240,000)
Next Income Before Tax $3,760,000
Less Income tax at 40 % ($1,504,000)
Net Income After Tax $2,256,000
Effect of the Change on Income
First, calculate the Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL).
The DOL shows the times Net Income Before Interest and Tax will change as a result of a change in sales contribution.
Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL) = Contribution ÷ Net Income
Therefore,
Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL) = $4,000,000 ÷ $3,760,000
= 1.06
Effect on Income using the DOL = 1.06 × 15% = 15.90 %
Therefore Net Income would also increase by 15.90 %.
Units to be sold to earn an income of $100,000
Units to Earn a Target Profit = (Fixed Costs + Target Profit) ÷ Contribution margin per unit
Therefore,
Units to be sold to earn an income of $100,000 = ($100,000 + $240,000) ÷ $100
= 3,400 units

Why is Apple’s industry so competitive and how could this affect the ethical risks in Apple’s operations?
Answer:
Apple industry is the consumer goods technological sector.
Explanation:
This sector is very competitive because it tends to be very profitable, which means that it attracts a large number of skilled entrepreneurs and wokers who create high quality products that customers demand. This is specially true of the mobile phone sub-sector, with industry giants like Samsung and Huawei being in stiff competition with Apple.
Because of this, Apple faces several ethical risks: for one, it faces the risk of not practicing predatory pricing techniques like dumping in order to drive out competition, because this would be unfair not only to the other firms, but also to the other companies.
Another ethical risks would be more relevant for managers, and that is that managers should avoid to overestimate their ability to increase profits, because this may create false expectations on the board, on stockholders, and on the customers, leading to malinvestment, and other negative eocnomic consequences.

A potential obligation that depends on the future outcome of past events is a contingent liability. true false
Answer:
TRUE
Explanation:
A potential obligation that depends on the future outcome of past events is a contingent liability!
- An obligation is something that is to be done
- A potential obligation is a thing or activity that is among the options of stuff that can be done
- When something depends on the future outcome of past events, it introduces or carries with it, the cost of waiting (for future outcomes)
- A contingent liability is something that poses probability of loss instead of gain. The opposite of liability is asset.
So in business, a potential obligation or action that depends on the future outcome of past events is a contingent loss rather than gain.

A company is 49% financed by risk-free debt. The interest rate is 8%, the expected market risk premium is 6%, and the beta of the company’s common stock is .59. a. What is the company cost of capital? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.) Cost of capital
Answer: 9.81%
Explanation:
Cost of capital = (cost of debt * weight of debt) + ( cost of equity * weight of equity)
Cost of Equity = Risk free rate + beta * Market risk premium
= 8% + 0.59 * 6%
= 11.54%
Cost of capital = (8% * 49%) + (11.54% * 51%)

A ball rolls across a floor with an acceleration of 0.100 m/s2 in a direction opposite to its velocity. The ball has a velocity of 4.00 m/s after rolling a distance 6.00 m across the floor. What was the initial speed of the ball?a. 4.15 m/s.
b. 5.85 m/s.
c. 4.60 m/s.
d. 5.21 m/s.
e. 3.85 m/s.
Answer:
a. 4.15 m/s.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Acceleration, a = -0.100 because it's in the opposite direction.
Final velocity = 4
Distance = 6
To find the initial velocity of the ball, we would use the third equation of motion;
[tex] V^{2} = U^{2} + 2aS [/tex]
Where;
V represents the final velocity measured in meter per seconds. U represents the initial velocity measured in meter per seconds. a represents acceleration measured in meters per seconds square. S represents the displacement measured in meters.[tex] V^{2} = U^{2} + 2aS [/tex]
Making U the subject, we have;
[tex] U^{2} = V^{2} - 2aS [/tex]
Substituting into the equation, we have;
[tex] U^{2} = 4^{2} - 2*(-0.100)*(6) [/tex]
[tex] U^{2} = 16 + 1.2 [/tex]
[tex] U^{2} = 17. 2[/tex]
Taking the square root of both sides;
U = 4.147m/s ≈ 4.15m/s
Therefore, the initial speed of the ball is 4.15m/s.
