Which of the following would a defender of globalization most likely use as an example to argue that concerns of Americanization are overblown and that globalization is indeed a two-way street?
A) the view of McDonald's being a domestic brand in China
B) the growing popularity of coffee in China since the introduction of Starbucks
C) the growing number of IKEA furniture stores in the United States
D) the initial failure of Disneyland Paris
E) the anti-globalization protests aimed at KFC

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: C) the growing number of IKEA furniture stores in the United States

Explanation:

IKEA is a very popular furniture chain in the United States that keeps rising in popularity as well as adding new locations. However, it is not an American company but rather a Swedish company with it's headquarters in The Netherlands. This shows that as American companies such McDonald's, Disney and Starbucks are spreading around the world, so also are foreign companies spreading in the USA.

The defender of Globalization can point to this and show that the Americans are not only spreading around the world, but have foreign companies spreading amongst them as well making it a 2 way street.

Consider two bonds, a 3-year bond paying an annual coupon of 6.90% and a 10-year bond also with an annual coupon of 6.90%. Both currently sell at a face value of $1,000. Now suppose interest rates rise to 12%.

Required:
a. What is the new price of the 3-year bonds?
b. What is the new price of the 10-year bonds?

Answers

Answer:

a.

$877.51

b.

$711.84

Explanation:

Price of the bond is the present value of all cash flows of the bond. These cash flows include the coupon payment and the maturity payment of the bond. Both of these cash flows discounted and added to calculate the value of the bond.

According to given data

Face value of the bond is $1,000

Coupon payment = C = $1,000 x 6.9% = $69 annually

Market Rate = 12% annually

Price of the bond is calculated by following formula:

Price of the Bond = C x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n ) / r ] + [ F / ( 1 + r )^n ]

a.

Numbers of period = 3

Placing values in the formula

Price of the Bond = $69 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 12% )^-3 ) / 12% ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + 12% )^3 ]

Price of the Bond = $165.73 + $711.78

Price of the Bond = $877.51

b.

Numbers of period = 10

Placing values in the formula

Price of the Bond = $69 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 12% )^-10 ) / 12% ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + 12% )^10 ]

Price of the Bond = $389.87 + 321.97

Price of the Bond = $711.84

Answer:

1. Calculate the receivables turnover ratio and the average collection period for WalCo, TarMart and CostGet.

WalCo = 70.63TarMart = 10.41CostGet = 106.80

2.Which company appears most efficient in collecting cash from sales?

CostGet because its average collection period is shortest

Explanation:

                                  Beginning Accounts    Ending Accounts    Net Sales

                                  Receivable                   Receivable

WalCo                         $1,795                            $2,742                  $320,427

TarMart                      $6,066                           $6,594                     $65,878

CostGet                        $609                              $645                     $66,963

accounts receivable turnover ratio = net sales / average accounts receivable

WalCo = $320,427 / [($1,795 + $2,742)/2] = 70.63

TarMart = $65,878 / [($6,066 + $6,594)/2] = 10.41

CostGet = $66,963 / [($609 + $645)/2] = 106.80

average collection period = 365 / accounts receivable turnover ratio

WalCo = 365 / 70.63 = 5.17 days

TarMart = 365 / 10.41 = 35.06 days

CostGet = 365 / 106.80 = 3.42 days

Carlsbad Corporation's sales are expected to increase from $5 million in 2016 to $6 million in 2017, or by 20%. Its assets totaled $4 million at the end of 2016. Carlsbad is at full capacity, so its assets must grow in proportion to projected sales. At the end of 2016, current liabilities are $1 million, consisting of $250,000 of accounts payable, $500,000 of notes payable, and $250,000 of accrued liabilities. Its profit margin is forecasted to be 6%, and the forecasted retention ratio is 45%. Use the AFN equation to forecast the additional funds Carlsbad will need for the coming year. Write out your answer completely. For example, 5 million should be entered as 5,000,000. Round your answer to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

$538,000

Explanation:

EFN = [(assets/sales) x ($ Δ sales)] - [(liabilities/sales) x ($ Δ sales)] - [profit margin x forecasted sales x (1 - dividend payout)]

current sales = $5,000,000

change in sales = $1,000,000

assets $4,000,000

profit margin = 6%

1 - dividend payout = 45%

current liabilities that change in proportion to sales = $500,000

forecasted sales = $6,000,000

EFN = [($4,000,000/$5,000,000) x ($1,000,000)] - [($500,000/$5,000,000) x ($1,000,000)] - (6% x $6,000,000 x 0.45)

EFN = $800,000 - $100,000 - $162,000 = $538,000

A publishing company sells 450 comma 000 copies of certain books each year. It costs the company $ 1 to store each book for a year. Each time it must print additional​ copies, it costs the company $ 1 comma 000 to set up the presses. How many books should the company produce during each printing in order to minimize its total storage and setup​ costs?

Answers

Answer:

The company produce 30,000 books during each printing in order to minimize its total storage and setup​ costs.

Explanation:

The quantity that minimizes  total storage and setup​ costs is known as Economic Order Quantity, in this case it is called the Optimum Batch Quantity.

Optimum Batch Quantity = √((2 × Annual demand × Setup cost per process) / Holding Cost per book.)

                                          = √( (2 × 450,000 × $1,000) / $1)

                                          = 30,000

Conclusion :

The company produce 30,000 books during each printing in order to minimize its total storage and setup​ costs.

Red Sun Rising Corp. has just signed a lease for its new manufacturing facility. The lease agreement calls for annual payments of $1,600,000 for 20 years with the first payment due today. If the interest rate is 3.45 percent, what is the value of this liability today

Answers

Answer:

The present value of the liability today is $23,631,155.52

Explanation:

The lease payments form an annuity due as the lease payments meet the criteria of the annuity due. The lease pays equal amount of payments, after equal intervals of time and for a definite period of times. Besides, the payments made are at the start of the period. Thus, it is an annuity due.

The formula to calculate the present value of an annuity due is attached and using this formula we can calculate the present value of the lease liability today.

PV = 1600000 + 1600000 * [ (1 - (1+0.0345)^-19) / 0.0345 ]

PV = $23,631,155.52

Some studies done by economists have found that the original inventor receives _________________________________________________ from innovations, while other businesses and new product users receive the rest of the benefit.

Answers

Answer:

one-third to one-half of the total economic benefits

Explanation:

It has been found that although most inventors put in a lot of time, money, energy, and intellect into discovering new products, they most times do not make much gains from their discoveries. The rate at which other competing firms copy the new innovations, make it such that the innovative company might lose the sole right to market the product and make any gains from the sale.

Economists from their own research have also found that the original inventor just makes one-third to one-half of the total economic benefits from the new product, while other businesses receive the remaining benefits because of their ability to copy the original. Sometimes the innovators go through legal battles to secure patent rights, and even after this, they may not make enough money to cover all the expenses.

Fixed Manufacturing Overhead: $125,000
Total units produced: 10,000
Under absorption costing what was the per-unit cost of the units produced?
a. None of the above
b. $23.75
c. $12.50
d. $11.25
e. $8.75

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cost of Direct Materials used in production: $50,000

Cost of Direct Labor wages: $37,500

Variable Manufacturing Overhead: $25,000

Fixed Manufacturing Overhead: $125,000

Total units produced: 10,000

The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.

First, we need to calculate the total cost:

Total cost= 50,000 + 37,500 + 25,000 + 125,000

Total cost= $237,500

Now, the unitary cost:

Unitary cost= 237,500/10,000= $23.75

Wilt's has earnings per share of $2.98 and dividends per share of $0.35. What is the firm's sustainable rate of growth if its return on assets is 14.6% and its return on equity is 18.2%?

Answers

Answer:

16.06%

Explanation:

According to the given situation the computation of sustainable rate of growth is shown below:-

Sustainable Growth Rate = Return on equity × (1 - Dividend payout ratio)

= 18.2% × ( 1 - 0.35 ÷ 2.98)

= 18.2% × ( 1 - 0.1174)

= 16.06%

Therefore for computing the sustainable rate of growth we simply applied the above formula.

The capital accounts of Hawk and Martin have balances of $160,000 and $140,000, respectively, on January 1, the beginning of the current fiscal year. On April 10, Hawk invested an additional $10,000. During the year, Hawk and Martin withdrew $86,000 and $68,000, respectively, and net income for the year was $258,000. The articles of partnership make no reference to the division of net income. Based on this information, the statement of partners' equity would show what amount in the capital account for Martin on December 31?

Answers

Answer:

$213,000

Explanation:

We will figure out first Hawk's share of profit to reach the capital account is shown below:-

Hawk's share of profit = $258,000 ÷ 2

= $129,000

Capital account of Hawk as on December 31 = Opening Balance + Capital Introduced + Profit Share - Drawings

= $160,000 + $10,000 + $129,000 - $86,000

= $213,000

So, we have got the answer after solve the below formula.

The following is an example of the reasoning of a rule utilitarian:

"If the practice of stealing is bad, then one ought not to steal now, even if in this case to steal would actually bring about better consequences."

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the option B: False.

Explanation:

To begin with, the concept of "Rule Utilitarism" refers to a type of utilitarism in where the main characteristic is in the belief that an action is right when it conforms to a rule that leads to the greatest good. Therefore that under this type of ideology, the utilitarians believe that an action would be right when the amount of good that it brings is greater than the action itself. And that is why that for an utilitarian to steal would not be wrong in the case that a greater good would come afterwards for the majority, so that means, better consequences.

A stock has an expected return of 10.2 percent, the risk-free rate is 3.9 percent, and the market risk premium is 7.2 percent. What must the beta of this stock be? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

Beta= 0.88

Explanation:

The Capital Asset pricing Model (CAPM) can be used to determined the beta.

According to the Capital Asset pricing Model the return on equity is dependent on the level of reaction of the the equity to changes in the return on a market portfolio.

These changes are captured as systematic risk. The magnitude by which a stock is affected by systematic risk is measured by beta.  

Under CAPM, Ke= Rf + β(Rm-Rf)  

Rf-risk-free rate (treasury bill rate), β= Beta, Rm= Return on market.  

Ke- expected return.

Note that (Rm-Rf) is known as equity risk premium

Using this model,  

10.2%= 3.9% + β× (7.2%)

0.102=0.039 + 0.072β

collect like terms

0.072β = 0.102 -0.039

0.072β = 0.063

Divide both sides by 0.072

 β = 0.063 /0.072

β= 0.875

Beta= 0.88

$1                                  425,000                $425,000

$40                               225,000                $9,000,000

total cost to produce and sell 425,000 copies = (425,000 x $1) + $2,650,000 = $3,075,000

total cost to produce and sell 275,000 copies = (275,000 x $1) + $2,650,000 = $2,925,000

A factory currently manufactures and sells 800 boats per year. Each boat costs $5,000 to produce. $4,000 of the per-boat costs are for materials and other variable costs, while the per-boat fixed costs (incurred on yearly rent, administrative, and other fixed costs) are $1,000. If boat orders increase to 1000 boats per year, how do per-unit costs change?

Answers

Answer:

Total unitary cost= $4,800

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Actual units= 800

Total fixed costs= 1,000*800= 800,000

UNitary variable cost= $4,000

Units increase= 200

On unitary bases, variable costs remain constant. On the contrary, fixed costs vary at a unitary level. Now, the same amount of costs is divided by a larger number of units.

Unitary fixed overhead= 800,000/1,000= $800

Total unitary cost= 4,000  + 800= $4,800

Suppose that Larimer Company sells a product for $24. Unit costs are as follows:

Direct materials $4.98
Direct labor 2.10
Variable factory overhead 1.00
Variable selling and administrative expense 2.00

Total fixed factory overhead is $26,500 per year, and total fixed selling and administrative expense is $15,260.

Requried:
a. Calculate the variable cost per unit and the contribution margin per unit.
b. Calculate the contribution margin ratio and the variable cost ratio.
c. Calculate the break-even units.

Answers

Answer:

a)

Variable cost per unit=$10.08

Contribution per unit=$13.92

b)

Contribution margin ratio=58%

Variable cost ratio= 42%

c) Break-even units=3,000 units

Explanation:

Variable cost per unit

= 4.98 + 2.10 + 1.00 + 2.00 = $10.08

Variable cost per unit=$10.08

Contribution per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

                                  = 24 - 10.08  =13.92

Contribution per unit=$13.92

b)

Contribution margin ratio=  contribution/selling price= 13.92/24 × 100=58%

Contribution margin ratio=58%

Variable cost ratio = variable cost/selling price= 10.08 /24× 100 = 42%

Variable cost ratio=42%

c)

Break-even units = Total general fixed cost/contribution per unit

                           = (26,500 + 15,260)/  13.92     = 3000 units

Break-even units=3,000 units

Billy Thornton borrowed $20,000 at a rate of 7.25%, simple interest, with interest paid at the end of each month. The bank uses a 360-day year. How much interest would Billy have to pay in a 30-day month

Answers

Answer:

Interest for a 30 day month = $120.83

Explanation:

Interest rate rate is the price paid by a borrower for the use of money and the return earned by a lender for postponing his consumption in favour of investment.

Interest is computed in two ways; Simple interest and compound interest

Simple interest: This is the interest paid on the principal invested or borrowed. To calculate simple interest, we use the formula below:

Annual Simple interest= Principal × interest Rate (%) × Time.

Chutes​ & Co. has interest expense of $ 1.25 million and an operating margin of 10.8 % on total sales of $ 30.7 million. What is​ Chutes' interest coverage​ ratio?

Answers

Answer:

2.7 times

Explanation:

Chutes and co. has an interest expense of 1.25 million

Operating margin of 10.8%

Total sales of 30.7 million

The first step is to calculate the operating income

Operating income= Sales×operating margin

= $30,700,000×10.8/100

= $30,700,000×0.108

= $3,315,600

Therefore, the interest coverage ratio can be calculated as follows

Interest coverage ratio= Operating income/Interest expense

= $3,315,600/$1,250,000

= 2.65

= 2.7 times

Hence Chutes' interest coverage​ ratio is 2.7 times

A company is obligated to pay its creditors $6,100 at the end of the year. If the value of the company's assets equals $5,800 at that time, what is the value of shareholders' equity

Answers

Answer:

The value of shareholders' equity is -$300

Explanation:

Shareholders' equity is the corporation's owners' residual claim on assets after debts have been paid.

Total assets= Total liability + shareholders' equity

Shareholders' equity = Total assets - Total liability

Shareholders' equity = $5,800 - $6,100

Shareholders' equity = -$300

2014 ending inventory was overstated by $25,000, but it was too late to correct the financial statements. Which of the following describes the effect of the inventory error on the 2014 financial statements?A. Net income and stockholders' equity are both understated.
B. Net income is understated and stockholders' equity is correct.
C. Net income and stockholders' equity are both overstated.
D. Net income and stockholders' equity are both unaffected.

Answers

Answer:

C. Net income and stockholders' equity are both overstated.

Explanation:

In the income statement , ending inventory is deducted from the addition of the beginning inventory and net purchases to arrive at the cost of goods sold. Therefore, the cost of goods can be stated as an equation stated as follows:

Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + Net purchases - Ending inventory

From the above equation, it can be observed that if the ending inventory is overstated, cost of goods sold will be understated by that amount.

Since gross income is determined by deducting cost of goods sold from the net sales, an understated cost of goods sold will result in an overstated gross income and subsequently overstated net income.

Since net income is one of the components of the stockholders' equity, an overstated net income will leads to an overstated stockholders' equity.

Therefore, the correct option is C. Net income and stockholders' equity are both overstated.

An eight-year bond has a yield of 10% and a duration of 7.208 years. If the bond's yield increases by 50 basis points, what is the percentage change in the bond's price as predicted by the duration formula

Answers

Answer:

3.28%

Explanation:

For the computation of percentage change in the bond's price first, we need to find out the modified duration which is shown below:-

Modified duration = duration ÷ (1+yield)

= 7.208 ÷ (1 + 10%)

= 6.553

Percentage change in price = modified duration × change in yield

= 6.553 × 0.5%

= 3.28%

Therefore for computing the percentage change in the bond's price we simply applied the above formula.
