Answer 1

Answer:

1.$1,500,000

2.62.50%

3.13.20%

Explanation:

1.

Using this formula

Total Capital investment *Target return on investment=Target operating income

Hence:

$15,000,000x10%

= $1,500,000

2.

Target revenues$3,900,000

Less Variable costs1,500,000

Contribution margin2,400,000

LessFixed costs 900,000

Target operating income$1,500,000

$13 per case must be charge in order to earn the target operating income.

Markup per unit/Full cost per unit

=Markup on full costs

($5.00/$8.00)= 62.50%

3.

Target revenues$4,320,000

Less Variable costs1,440,000

Contribution margin2,880,000

Less Fixed costs900,000

Target operating income$1,980,000

Return on investment for Zoom−o−liciousis

will be 13.20%

Increasing the selling price will be a good idea reason been that the operating income have increase without increasing invested capital, which lead to a more higher return on the investment.

Answers

Answer:

The effect on Morgantown's overall profit is $140,000 decrease in Morgantown's profits

Explanation:

In order to calculate the effect on Morgantown's overall profit we would have to make the following calculations:

Contribution margin per unit for Lock Division = Selling price – Variable costs = $40 - $22 = $18

Contribution lost by lock division if Cabinet division buys from outside = $18 * 10,000 = $180,000

Cost per unit saved by Cabinet division = $40 - $36 = $4

Total cost saved by cabinet division = $4 * 10,000 = $40,000

Net decrease in profit = Contribution lost – Cost saved = $180,000 - $40,000 = $140,000

Therefore, the effect on Morgantown's overall profit is $140,000 decrease in Morgantown's profits.

McGaha Enterprises expects earnings and dividends to grow at a rate of 28% for the next 4 years, after the growth rate in earnings and dividends will fall to zero, i.e., g = 0. The company's last dividend, D0, was $1.25, its beta is 1.20, the market risk premium is 5.50%, and the risk-free rate is 3.00%. What is the current price of the common stock?

Answers

Answer:

The current price of the common stock is $29.05

Explanation:

Cost of Equity = Rf + beta x MRP = 3% + 1.20 × 5.50% = 9.6%

Dividend in the n the year = D₀ × [tex](1+g)^n[/tex]

D₁ = $1.25 × 1.25 = $1.56255

D₂ = $1.5625 × 1.25  = $1.9531

D₃ = $1.9531 × 1.25   = $2.44

D₄ = $2.44 × 1.25 = $3.052

Terminal value = D₄ × [tex](1+g5)/r5-g5[/tex]

= $3.052 x (1+0.0) ÷ (9.60 - 0.0)

= $31.79

Total value in 4th year = $3.052 + $31.79 = $34.8409

Total cash flows = $1.5625, $1.9531, $2.4414,  $34.8409

(Present value Cash-flows at 9.60% ) $1.4256, $1.6260, $1.8544, $24.1461

= $29.05

Current price = $29.05

Answer:

Lack of segregation of duties.

Explanation:

Internal Controls are set of rules and guidelines that are followed to ensure effectiveness of business operations. The main risk in the business is weak internal controls. There are some organizations with strong internal controls but implementation of such controls is a challenge for organizations. There are human errors, IT security risks, fraud and compliance risk.

The risks associated with Olive limited is that there is no segregation of duties, Richard Palm is preparing journal vouchers, posts the journal vouchers and reconciles the balance himself. If he makes an error in recording a transaction there is no one who reviews his work and can identify an error. Also if Richard is involved in a fraud and collaborates with purchase department or sales department staff, he can pass a transaction without any supervision.

Explanation:

a. If you believe that the term structure next year will be the same as today’s, calculate the return on (i) the 1-year zero and (ii) the 4-year zero.

b. Which bond provides a greater expected 1-year return? O 1-year zero-coupon bond O 4-year zero-coupon bond

The return on one year bond is = 5.2%

The price of 4 year bond today

[tex]=\frac{ 1000}{ (1.055)^4}[/tex]

Price of 4 year bond today = 807.22

If yield curves is unchanged, the bond will have 3-year maturity and price will be

[tex]=\frac{ 1000}{(1.054)^3}[/tex]

If yield curves is unchanged, the bond will have 3-year maturity and price will be = 854.04

Return

[tex]=\frac{ (854.04 - 807.22)}{807.22}[/tex]

Return = 5.8%

The longer term bond has given the higher return in this case at it's YTM fell during the holding period(4 -year)

You are an intern to the editor of a​ small-town newspaper in​ Mallsburg, Pennsylvania. Your​ boss, the​ editor, asks you to write the first draft of an editorial for this​ week's paper. Your assignment is to describe the costs and the benefits of building a new bridge across the railroad tracks in the center of town.​ Currently, most people who live in this town must drive 2 miles through thickly congested traffic to the existing bridge to get to the main shopping and employment center. The bridge will cost the citizens of Mallsburg​ $25 million, which will be paid for with a tax on their incomes over the next 20 years.

Required:
a.What are the opportunity costs of building this bridge?
b. What are the benefits that citizens will likely receive if the bridge is built?
c. What other factors might you consider in writing this editorial?

Answers

The opportunity costs of building this bridge could be from people coming into the town and making purchases within the town. Benefits for the citizens would be less traffic and being able to get around faster. Other factors would be the cost of taxes and how they would probably go up in order to pay off $25 million.

Roadside Markets has 6 percent coupon bonds outstanding that mature in 10 years. The bonds pay interest semiannually. What is the market price of the bond if the face value is $1,000 and the yield to maturity is 8 percent? Group of answer choices $1077.22 $864.10 $1071.06 $928.94

Answers

Answer:

The price of the bonds = $864.10

Explanation:

The value of the bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV) discounted at the yield rate  

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV  

The PV of interest payment  

A ×(1- (1+r)^(-n))/r  

A- interest payment, r- interest rate, n- number of years

Interest payment = 6%× 1000 1/2=$30

Semi- interest yield = 8%/2 = 4%

PV = 30 × (1- 1.04^(-10×2))/0.04= 407.7

PV of redemption value  

PV = RV× (1+r)^(-n)  

RV- Redemption value - 1,000, r- interest rate, number of years, number of years- 3

PV = 1000× 1.04^(-10×2) = 456.3869462

The value of bond = 407.709  + 456.38 = 864.09

The price of the bonds = $864.10

Pekoe sold stock to his sister Rose for $12,000, its fair market value. Pekoe bought the stock 5 years ago for $16,000. Also, Pekoe sold Earl (an unrelated party) stock for $6,500 that he bought 3 years ago for $9,500. What is Pekoe's recognized gain or loss?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is $3000

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

Pekoe sold stock  to his sister rose for the amount = $12,000

The stock cost 5 years ago for Pekoe = $16,000

Pekoe sold earl stock for =$6,500

Previous stock for earl 3 years ago = $9,500

Now we have to find the recognized loss of Pekoe

THus,

The sale of stock to rose will be a loss of $ 4000

which is

($12,000 -$16,000) =$4000 loss

Thus,

The sale of stock to Earl will result to the following loss which is state below:

$6,500 - $9,500 = a loss of $3000

Therefore the recognized loss of pekoe is $3000 or -$3000

Note: A loss was recognized here, no gain earned

Answer:

Pekoe would recognize the loss of $3,000.

Explanation:

The sale of stock to Rose would result in a loss of $3,000 ($12,000 (FMV) - $16,000 (cost) = $4,000 loss).

Under the tax law, "losses from sale or exchange of property ... directly or indirectly" are disallowed between related parties. When the property is later sold to an unrelated party, any disallowed loss may be used to offset gain on that transaction.

The sale of stock to Earl (an unrelated party) also results in a loss ($6,500 (FMV) - $9,500 (cost) = $3,000 loss). This is considered an arms-length transaction.

Pekoe would recognize the loss of $3,000.

Required: 1. Using FIFO, calculate ending inventory, cost of goods sold, sales revenue, and gross profit.

Answers

Answer:

TRC Corporation

Calculations, using FIFO:

a) Ending Inventory:

Ending Inventory in units = Units available for sale minus Units sold

Ending Inventory in units = 466 - 413 = 53 units

Ending Inventory value = Units x FIFO cost of last purchase = 53 x $42 = $2,226

b) Cost of goods sold:

Cost of goods sold = Beginning Inventory + Purchases - Ending Inventory

Cost of goods sold = $1,584 + 17,034 - 2,226 = $16,392

c) Sales Revenue:

Sales Revenue = Units sold x Selling price = 414 x $54 = $22,302

d) Gross Profit:

Gross Profit = Sales Revenue minus Cost of goods sold

Gross Profit = $22,302 - $16,392 = $5,910

Explanation:

a) Summary of Inventory Transactions:

Date     Transaction              Number of Units   Unit Cost     Total Cost

Jan. 1     Beginning inventory     44                     $ 36              $ 1,584

Apr. 7     Purchase                     124                        38                  4,712

Jul. 16    Purchase                     194                         41                 7,954

Oct. 6    Purchase                     104                         42                4,368

b) Cost of goods available       466                                         $ 18,618

             

c) Sales                                      413                     $ 54           $ 22,302

d) Dec. 31 Ending Inventory      53                         42             $ 2,226

e) The FIFO (First-in, First-out) inventory method assumes that goods sold are from earlier inventory units, unlike Last-in, First-out (LIFO).  This means that beginning and earlier purchased inventory units are sold first before the latest purchases. Using the FIFO method, the ending inventory is valued at the cost of the most recent inventory purchases.

C. 77.87 days

D. 1.5 times

E. 4.69 times

F. 3.35 times

G. 34 %

H. 4.63 %

I.  23.22%

Explanation:

A. What is the firm's current ratio

current ratio = current assets / current liabilities

                     = $23,595 / $17,160

                     = 1.375

B. What is the firm's quick ratio

 quick ratio   = (current assets - inventory) / current liabilities

                     = ($23,595 - $12,480) / $17,160

                     = 0.648

C. What is the firm's days sales outstanding Assume a 365-day year for this calculation.

days sales outstanding = Inventory / (Sales / 365)

                                       = $12,480 / ($58,500 /365)

                                       = 77.87 days

D. What is the firm's total assets turnover

total assets turnover = Sales / Total Assets

                                  = $58,500 / $39,000

                                  = 1.5 times

E. What is the firm's inventory turnover ratio?

inventory turnover ratio = Sales / Inventory

                                        = $58,500 / $12,480

                                        = 4.69 times

F. What is the firm's TIE?

Total Interest Expense (TIE) = Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) / Total Interest Expense

                                              = $2,779 / $829

                                              = 3.35 times

G. What is the firm's debt/assets ratio?

debt/assets ratio = Total Debt / Total Assets × 100

                            = ($5,460 + $ $7,800) / $39,000 × 100

                            = 34 %

H. What is the firm's ROA?

Return on Assets (ROA) = Earnings Before Interest After Tax (EBIAT) / Total Assets × 100

                                        = ($1,268 + ($829 × 65%)) / $39,000 × 100

                                        = 4.63 %

I. What is the firm's ROE?

Return on Equity (ROE) = Net Income / Total Shareholders Funds

                                      = $1,268 / $5,460 × 100

                                      = 23.22%

If the current price of a market basket of goods is $850, the current year GDP deflator is 170, and the base year price index is 100, what is the price of the basket in real terms

Answers

Answer:

$500

Explanation:

DATA

The current price of the market basket of goods = $850

Current year GDP deflator                                      = 170

In order to find the GDP in real terms, we should amend the GDP deflates formula

Formula: GDP deflator = [tex]\frac{NominalGDP}{RealGDP}[/tex] x 100

Lets put the values and amend the formula in order to find real GDP

170 = [tex]\frac{850}{RealGDP}[/tex] x 100

Real GDP = $500

Answers

Answer:

D : George will have to pay $7,500, which is the 50% tax on the amount that he should have taken for his required minimum distribution.

Explanation:

Currently, Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) have been suspended for the entire 2020 due to CARES Act. But under normal circumstances, Roger would be penalized and 50% of the RMD not retired would be withheld by the IRS. That is why people generally withdraw the RMDs even if they do not need them.

You are considering buying a piece of industrial equipment to automate a part of your production process. This automation will save labor costs by $35,000 per year over 8 years. The equipment costs $200,000. Should you purchase the equipment if your interest rate is 10%?

Answers

Answer:

No, you should not purchase the equipment if your interest rate is 10% because you would spent more money on the equipment than what you would save in labor costs.

Explanation:

First, you have to calculate the total amount that you would save in 8 years which is the result of multiplying the amount you save per year for the number of years:

$35,000*8=$280,000

Second, you have to calculate the total amount you would have to pay to purchase the equipment if your interest rate is 10% using the following formula:

A= P(1+rt)

A= accrued amount

P= principal amount: $200,000

r= rate: 0.1

t= time period: 8

A= 200,000*(1+(0.1*8))

A= 200,000*1.8

A= 360.000

According to this, in 8 years you would save $280,000 in labor costs but you would have to pay $360,000 for the equipment which means that you will pay more for the machine than what you would save in costs. Because of this, you should not purchase the equipment if your interest rate is 10%.

Bell expects to produce 1 comma 800 units in January and 2 comma 155 units in February. The company budgets 3 pounds per unit of direct materials at a cost of $ 10 per pound. Indirect materials are insignificant and not considered for budgeting purposes. The balance in the Raw Materials Inventory account​ (all direct​ materials) on January 1 is 4 comma 950 pounds. Bell desires the ending balance in Raw Materials Inventory to be 20​% of the next​ month's direct materials needed for production. Desired ending balance for February is 4 comma 860 pounds. Prepare Bell​'s direct materials budget for January and February.

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production:

January= 1,800 units

February= 2,155 units

The company budgets 3 pounds per unit of direct materials at a cost of $ 10 per pound.

Beginning inventory= 4,950 pounds.

Desired ending inventory= 20​% of the next​ month's direct materials needed for production.

Desired ending balance for February is 4,860 pounds.

To calculate purchases, we need to use the following formula:

Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

January (in pounds):

Production= 1,800*3= 5,400

Desired ending inventory= (2,155*3)*0.2= 1,293

Beginning inventory= (4,950)

Total= 1,743

Total cost= 1,743*10= $17,430

February (in pounds):

Production= 2,155*3= 6,465

Desired ending inventory= 4,860

Beginning inventory= (1,293)

Total= 10,032

Total cost= 10,032*10= $100,320

"Lizard National Bank purchases a three-year interest rate cap for a fee of 2 percent of notional principal valued at $50 million, with an interest rate ceiling of 11 percent and LIBOR as the index representing the market interest rate. LIBOR is 9 percent, 12 percent, and 13 percent at the end of each of the next three years, respectively. The total payments received (or paid) by Lizard, including the initial fee, are $____."

Answers

Answer: $500,000

Explanation:

An Interest Rate Cap is a Derivative Financial Instrument that works by paying the buyer for every year that the interest rate ceiling is exceeded.

Using the scenario above this is how it's works,

There is an Interest Rate Ceiling of 11%.

Any year that index which is this case is the London Interbank Official Rate (LIBOR) exceeds the 11%, the seller will pay the buyer the difference between the LIBOR and the Interest Rate Ceiling.

The Notional Principal is the amount on which the interest is based.

That means that in Year 1 with a LIBOR of 9 percent, the seller does not pay.

Second year LIBOR is 12 percent, the seller will pay 1% (12% - 11%)

Third year LIBOR is 13 percent, the seller will pay 2% (13% - 11%)

Lizard National Bank had to pay 2% of the notional Principal as a fee.

The amount that Lizard Receives from the seller is therefore,

= Total Received - Fees

= (1% + 2% - 2%) * 50,000,000

= 1% * 50,000,000

= $500,000

The total payments received by Lizard, including the initial fee, are $500,000.
