Answer:

Market cap = 28.825 million

Stock price = $25

Explanation:

Current outstanding shares = 1,250,000

Current price per share = $25

So, ECB current market cap = 1,250,000 × $25 = $31,250,000

Repurchase shares = 97,000

So repurchase value = 97,000 × $25 = $2,425,000

Hence, Market capitalization after repurchase = current market cap - repurchase value

= $31,250,000 - $2,425,000 = 28,825,000 or 28.825 million

Stock price = $25

Answer:

A. power distance

Explanation:

In the context of Hofstede's cultural dimensions, this difference in cultures is part of the power distance dimension, which corresponds to the hierarchical position of the members of an organization and the appropriate relationship form for each hierarchy in an organization that occurs in certain cultures, reinforced by an inequality that already occurs in society.

To avoid offensive behavior in multinational businesses, it is necessary to have multicultural skills that include ethics, respect and knowledge of a new culture and its rules.

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

1a. Variable product cost per unit = 5.75 + 1.25 + 0.60 = 7.60

b. Total variable cost per unit = 5.75 + 1.25 + 0.60 + 0.80 = 8.40

c. Contribution margin per unit = Selling price - Total Variable cost per unit

= 16 - 8.40

= 7.60

d. Contribution margin ratio = (7.6/16) × 100 = 47.5

e. Total fixed expense for the year = 43000 + 19000 = 62000

2. Price per unit. Total

Sales 16. 192000

Less: variable cost 8.40. (100800)

Less: cont. marg per unit (62000)

Net operating Income = 29200

Answer:

d. $10,056,200.

Explanation:

The computation of the cash collection for the third quarter is shown below;

Sales in quarter 1 is 240,000 units

Sales in quarter 2 is 240,000 + 26000 units = 266,000 units

And, the sales in quarter 3 is 266,000 units + 24000 units = 292,000 units

Now

= (292,000 units × $35 × 40%) + (292,000 × $35 × 60% × 70%) + (266,000 units × $35 × 60% × 30%)

= $4,088,000 + $4,292,400 + $1,675,800

= $10,056,200

If we will assume that that the discount rate is 7.5%. then the answer is $4.18 million.

The discount rate of return applied in corporate finance to reduce future cash flows to their present value is known as a discount rate. This rate is commonly a company's Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC), needed rate of return, or the minimum rate that investors hope to attain in order to assess the risk of the investment.

Seven annual free cash flow are received from the investment, each worth $100. An analyst uses a five percent hurdle rate to evaluate the investment's net present value, arriving with a value of $578.64. This contrasts with a whole cash flow of $700 that is not discounted.

Shareholders are essentially saying, "I don't care if I get $578.64 at once and today or $100 a year for 7 years." This claim takes into consideration the investor's perception of the investment's risk profile and a multiplier effect that indicates the earning potential on other investments.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Advertising $450 per month

Insurance $3,330 per month

Total fixed costs= $3,780

Weed and feed materials $20 per lawn

Direct labor $13 per lawn

Fuel $3 per lawn

Total unitary varaible cost= $36

Selling price per unti= $80

To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 3,780 / (80 - 36)

Break-even point in units= 86

Now, in dollars:

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)=  3,780 / (44 / 80)

Break-even point (dollars)= $6,873

Answer:

$2.127.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

Purchase price per pound = $2

Freight (Add)   =  $0.10

Handling cost (Add) =  $0.07

Total cost = $2.17

Discount (Less) = (2% × $2.17) = $0.043

Direct material price = $2.127

Hence, standard direct materials price per pound is $2.127.

Answer:

Explanation:

This is an inelastic collision :

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1 + m2)v

Where ;

m1 and u1 = mass and initial velocity of object 1

m2 and u2 = mass and initial velocity of object 2

v = final velocity of the objects

m1 = 2kg ; m2 = 3kg ; u1 = 5 m/s ; u2 = 0 ; v =?

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1 + m2)v

(2*5) + (3*0) = (2 + 3)v

10 + 0 = 5v

10 = 5v

v = 10/5

v = 2m/s

Manufacturing overhead- Predetermined overhead rate

B. 125%

C. Total cost $7,760

Unit cost $3.104

Explanation:

1. Based on the information given the source documents for direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead costs assigned to this job are :

Direct materials-Materials requisition slips

Direct labor-Time tickets

Manufacturing overhead- Predetermined overhead rate

2. Calculation to determine the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate

Predetermined overhead rate=$550/$440*100

Predetermined overhead rate=125%

Therefore the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate is 125%

3. Calculation to determine the total cost and the unit cost of the completed job

TOTAL COST

Direct Material $4, 700

($700 + $900 + $1,600 + $1,500)

Add Direct Labor $1,360

($440 + $380 + $540)

Add Manufacturing Overhead $1,700

($550 + $475 + $675)

Total Cost $7,760

UNIT COST

Unit cost= $7,760/ 2,500

Unit cost=$3.104

Therefore the total cost is $7,760 and the unit cost of the completed job is $3.104

Answer:

Accountants do not adjust the value of inventory upwards.  The general guidelines in recording inventory value are to recognize the ending inventory value at the lower of cost or market value and to ensure that transactions are recorded in accordance with the conservatism principle of generally accepted accounting principles.

Explanation:

The conservatism principle requires that all probable losses are recognized as soon as they can be reasonably estimated, while gains should be recognized only when they are fully realized.  The lower of cost or market value (LCM) method states that inventory should be recorded at the lower of either the historical cost or the market value.  The LCM is in line with the conservatism principle.

Answer:

A. Bond equivalent 10.82%

Effective annual yield to maturity of the bond 11.11%

B. Bond equivalent 10%

Effective annual yield to maturity of the bond 10.25%

C. Bond equivalent 9.49%

Effective annual yield to maturity of the bond 9.73%

Explanation:

A. Calculation to Find the bond equivalent

We would determine the yield to maturity on a semi-annual basis using Financial Calculator which is:

N = 10*2 = 30

PV = -940

PMT = [10%/2]*1000 = 50

FV = 1000

Press CPT, then I/Y, which gives us 5.41%

Bond equivalent yield to maturity=5.41% × 2

Bond equivalent yield to maturity= 10.82%

Calculation to determine the Effective Annual Yield To Maturity of the bond

Effective annual yield to maturity = (1+.0541)^2– 1

Effective annual yield to maturity = (1.0541)^2– 1

Effective annual yield to maturity =1.1111 – 1

Effective annual yield to maturity = 0.1111 *100

Effective annual yield to maturity = 11.11%

Therefore the bond equivalent and effective annual yield to maturity of the bond will be:

Bond equivalent 10.82%

Effective annual yield to maturity of the bond 11.11%

b. Calculation to determine the bond equivalent

Based on the information given the bond is selling at par which therefore means that the yield to maturity on a semi annual basis will be the same as the semi annual coupon 5%.

Bond equivalent yield to maturity =5%*2

Bond equivalent yield to maturity= 10%.

Calculation to determine Effective annual yield to maturity

Effective annual yield to maturity = (1+.05)^2– 1

Effective annual yield to maturity = (1.05)^2– 1

Effective annual yield to maturity=1.1025-1

Effective annual yield to maturity=.1025*100

Effective annual yield to maturity =10.25%

Therefore the bond equivalent and effective annual yield to maturity of the bond will be:

Bond equivalent 10%

Effective annual yield to maturity of the bond 10.25%

c.Calculation to determine the bond equivalent

N = 10*2 = 30

PV = -1,040

PMT = [10%/2]*1000 = 50

FV = 1000

Bond equivalent yield to maturity=9.49%, or 4.75% on a semi-annual basis.

Calculation to determine the Effective Annual Yield To Maturity of the bond

Effective annual yield to maturity = (1+.0475)^2– 1

Effective annual yield to maturity = (1.0475)^2– 1

Effective annual yield to maturity =1.0973– 1

Effective annual yield to maturity = 0.0973*100

Effective annual yield to maturity = 9.73%

Therefore the bond equivalent and effective annual yield to maturity of the bond will be:

Bond equivalent 9.49%

Effective annual yield to maturity of the bond 9.73%

Answer:

Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity = $71,500

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for how the events are recorded in general ledger accounts under an accounting equation.

From the attached excel file, we can obtain the following:

Assets = Total assets = $63,500 + $8,000 = $71,500

Liabilities = Total liabilities = $10,000

Stockholders’ Equity = Total Stockholders’ Equity = $20,000 + $41,500 = $61,500

Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity = $10,000 + $61,500 = $71,500

Therefore, the accounting equation holds as follows:

Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity = $71,500

By Kgomotso Ramotsho

The Competition Law Committee of the Law Society of the Northern Provinces held its last Annual Gala Breakfast in October 2018 in Johannesburg. The gala breakfast was organised and hosted by ENSafrica. Members of the panel discussed ‘Experiencing twenty years of competition practice’. The Competition Commission Commissioner, Tembinkosi Bonakele, said South Africa (SA) has challenges in the economic front and added that employment growth numbers were not impressive.

Mr Bonakele said this is a challenge and added that there can be talks about what the Competition Commission can contribute, however, there are concerns about the structure of the economy and concentration levels in the economy. He pointed out that another challenge, is with regards to developing competition experts. He said that SA could have done better in developing experts. He pointed out that when looking at who the experts are, the economic front is dominated by European experts, instead of local experts.

Mr Bonakele said it was easy for legal practitioners to make the transition into competition law. However, he added that another challenge is with economists. He said universities should produce a pool of economists that can help in the industry. Full-time member of the Competition Tribunal, Yasmin Carrim, added that the industry was not doing enough and that the pool of economists is small. She pointed out that it was not only up to universities to produce expert economists. She said the industry needed to grab the opportunity and utilise different strategies, such as giving practical training or internships to students, so that when they graduate they would have a sense of the work environment.

Full-time member of the Competition Tribunal, Yasmin Carrim, listed the quality of work done by competition law legal practitioners and economists in South Africa as one of the successes in the industry. She spoke at the last annual gala breakfast held in Johannesburg by the Competition Law Committee of the Law Society of the Northern Provinces.

Ms Carrim, however, said that from her personal experience, one of the successes in the industry has been the quality of work done by both legal practitioners and economists in the country. Mr Bonakele added that SA has made strides in establishing itself as a respected jurisdiction with locally developed practices and sharpened skills in the competition area, he noted that these were good signs. Judge President of the Competition Appeal Court, Dennis Davis, posed a question to Mr Bonakele with regards to work done by experts outside SA.

Mr Bonakele said the Competition Commission has relied on local experts. However, he pointed out that the issue is with the number of local experts. He noted that the country has knowledgeable experts even though they are few in numbers. He added that even though foreign experts are brought in to work in SA, they should team up with local experts as they understand the local conditions, they are open minded and are trained by the best in the world.
