The State of Idaho issued $2,000,000 of 7% coupon, 20-year semiannual payment, tax-exempt bonds 5 years ago. The bonds had 5 years of call protection, but now the state can call the bonds if it chooses to do so. The call premium would be 5% of the face amount. Today 15-year, 5%, semiannual payment bonds can be sold at par, but flotation costs on this issue would be 2%. What is the net present value of the refunding? Because these are tax-exempt bonds, taxes are not relevant.
Answer:
$278,606
Explanation:
Calaculation of the net present value of the refunding:
The first step is to calculate call premium :
Call premium= 2,000,000 x 5%
= 100,000
Second step is to calculate the Flotation cost
Flotation cost = 2,000,000 x 2%
= 40,000
Calculation for Old interest = 2,000,000 x (7% / 2) = 70,000
Caluclatio fo New interest = 2,000,000 x (5% / 2) = 50,000
Therefore the Six months savings will be:
20,000 70,000 + 50,000 + 20,000 = 140,000
The PV of savings 30 periods 5% / 2 will be:
20,000 x 20.9303 = 418,606
Therefore the Net Present Value of the refunding will be:
418,606- 140,000
= $278,606
Once you have collected data for a message, you’ll need to find a way to organize it. Well-organized messages group similar ideas together, allowing readers to see relationships and follow arguments. You can use two primary techniques for organizing your information: a scratch list and an outline. Answer the question based on the following scratch list.
1. The Boston Hotel
2. High-end linens
3. 600-thread-count sheets
4. Coffeemaker and selected teas
5. Imported beer
6. Fresh-squeezed juices
7. Affordability
8. Food and drink
9. Double-thick bath towels
10. Silk pillowcases
11. Raw silk curtains with gold embellishments
12. $100/night four-star rooms
13. Free snacks, shampoo, and conditioner
14. Free wireless Internet
Which group includes specific supporting detail that could be added to the previous scratch list?
a. High-end linens; free wireless Internet; free snacks, shampoo, and conditioner
b. Safety, comfort, half-price Tuesday
c. Sparkling water, evening wine tasting, four-star hotel restaurant
d. Business messages typically follow either a direct strategy or an indirect strategy. The direct strategy, or frontloading, places the main idea at the beginning of a message.
e. Using a direct opening strategy .
f. An indirect strategy places the main idea after an explanation or reason.
Answer:
c. Sparkling water, evening wine tasting, four-star hotel restaurant
Explanation:
The scratch list in general includes a series of services that are provided by a Hotel (the Boston Hotel). Because of the items included in the list, it seems that the Hotel is quite fancy.
Numeral c would be a good addition to the scratch list, because it lists items that would fall in place for the type of Hotel being described: sparking water, evening wine tasting, and a the mention of a four-star hotel restaurant.
Your Competitive Intelligence team reports that a wave of product liability lawsuits is likely to cause Baldwin to pull the product Bat entirely off the market this year. Assume Baldwin scraps all capacity and inventory this round, completely writing off those assets and escrowing the proceeds to a settlement fund, and assume these lawsuits will have no effect on any other products of Baldwin or other companies. Without Baldwin's product Bat how much can the industry currently produce in the Core segment
Answer:
11550
Explanation:
The computation of industry current produced in the core segment is shown below:
As there are five companies in the core segment i.e Abby, Brat, Bat, Cent , and Clack
First, we have to compute the total production capacity which is
Companies Primary Segment Capacity Next Round
Abby Core 2150
Brat Core 1250
Bat Core 1500
Cent Core 1098
Clack Core 1027
Total Capacity 7025
Now
segment without Brat.
So,
Production Capacity
= 7025 - 1250
= 5775
Moreover, the company work in two shifts
So, the production capacity is
= 5775 × 2
= 11550
To a greater or lesser degree, many governments can be considered pragmatic nationalists when it comes to foreign direct investment (FDI); this means it has both benefits and costs. FDI can benefit a host country by bringing capital, technology, and jobs, and it can also have a negative effect on a country's balance of payments. Accordingly, government policies are shaped by a consideration of these costs and benefits of FDI.
Home countries can adopt policies designed to both encourage and restrict FDI. Host countries try to attract FDI by offering incentives and try to restrict FDI by dictating ownership restraints and requiring that foreign multinational enterprises (MNE) meet specific performance requirements.
Roll over each item on the left to read its description. Determine whether the scenario represents a benefit or cost to the home or host country, and then drag it to the appropriate place on the chart.
HOST-COUNTRY BENEFIT HOST-COUNTRY COST
HOME-COUNTRY BENEFIT HOME-COUNTRY COST
-outflow of earnings from a foreign subsidiary
a- loss of jobs
b-inflows of foreign earnings
c-substitute for imports
d-loss of economic independence
e-increase in direct and indirect empolyment
f-skills that can be leveraged internationally
g-loss of local entreprenurship
h-Host country limits profit expatriation
i-transfer of new technology
Answer:
Home Country Benefit
b - inflows of foreign earnings.
The Company operating in the Host Country will send some of it's profits back to it's Home Country and this will be treated as Foreign Earnings.
f-skills that can be leveraged internationally.
The Home Country will gain skills from their experience in the Host Country. These skills can then be used to be competitive on the global market.
Home Country Cost
a- loss of jobs
The Home Country would lose the jobs that it's companies created in the Host Country. These are jobs that could have employed people in the Home Country but now employ people in the Host Country.
h-Host country limits profit expatriation
In order that they don't lose too much money to the Home Country, the Host Country might come up with laws that limit the amount of money that can be taken out from the country this limiting the amount of foreign Earnings that the Home country gets.
Host Country Benefit
c-substitute for imports
The products that the companies founded by FDI are producing could have been products that the Host Country used to import. Now that the goods are being made in the Host Country, there will be no need for imports.
e-increase in direct and indirect employment
The companies founded by FDI in the Host Countries will create employment for people in the company which is direct employment. Many auxiliary services such as drivers and caterers as an example will also spring up to take care of these newly employed folk thereby creating indirect employment.
i-transfer of new technology
The Company formed from FDI will bring with them technology from the Home Country that could be very beneficial to the Host Country.
Host Country Costs.
- Outflow of earnings from a foreign subsidiary
The Companies established through FDI will send some of their profits back to their home Countries. This means that the earnings would leave the Host Country instead of being reinvested in them.
d-loss of economic independence
These FDI companies tend to get very influential and powerful in the Host Country and can sometimes dictate policies. This would mean the companies have significant control over the resources of the Host Country which will lead to a loss of Economic independence. This is the main reason most people believe that China is interested in Africa.
g-loss of local Entrepreneurship
These companies created by FDI will bring with them better technology and capital that will enable them to be very competitive in the local Economy. This will discourage local Entrepreneurs who do not have the economic nor the financial backing to challenge the companies without making huge losses.
Billy owns one share of Disney stock. He purchased the share 3 years ago for $15. Disney stock is currently trading for $30 per share. The stock has paid the following dividends over the past three years: year 1, $1.00; year 2, $2.00; year 3, $3.00. What is the compounded rate of return (IRR) that Billy has earned on his investment
Answer:
35.8%
Explanation:
purchase price 3 years ago $15, so CF₀ = -15
CF₁ = $1
CF₂ = $2
CF₃ = $3 + $30 = $33
using an excel spreadsheet (or you can also a financial calculator), you must determine the internal rate of return (IRR) = 35.8%
the IRR is the interest rate where NPV = 0, or the future cash flows equal the investment amount
You purchase both potatoes and gasoline regularly. Your income decreases, and you purchase less gasoline. This means that: Gasoline is a normal good. Potatoes are inferior goods. Gasoline has a negative substitution effect. Gasoline is an inferior good.
Answer:
Gasoline is a normal good
Explanation:
Normal goods are goods that are goods whose demand increases when income increases and falls when income falls
Inferior goods are goods whose demand falls when income rises and increases when income falls.
Because the demand for gasoline falls when income falls, gasoline is a normal good.

You just agreed to a deal that will make you the proud new owner of a beautiful new convertible. The car comes with a three-year warranty. Please consider the purchase of the extended warranty which has a purchase price of $1,800, today (the day you purchased your NEW car). The extended warranty covers the 4 years immediately after the three-year warranty expires. You estimate that the yearly expenses that would have been covered by the extended warranty are $400 at the end of the first year of the extension, $500 as the end of the second year of the extension, $600 at the end of the third year of the extension, and $800 at the end of the fourth year of the extension. Assume that money during this time can earn interest at a rate of 7% compounded monthly. Will you decide to buy the warranty? Your formal solutions should include:______.1. The overall goal and/or purpose
2. The given information
3. A time-line for the expected repair costs covered by the warranty
4. The present value for each of the repair costs
5. The present value of the warranty and the expected profit for the warranty company
6. Your conclusion
Answer:
1. The overall goal and/or purpose
The overall goal of this analysis is to determine if you would actually save money by purchasing the extended warranty.
2. The given information
You can calculate this by determining the present value of the expected repair costs that will be covered by the warranty and determine which is higher; the warranty or the repairs
3. A time-line for the expected repair costs covered by the warranty
initial investment -$1,800cash flow year 4 = $400cash flow year 5 = $500cash flow year 6 = $600cash flow year 7 = $8004. The present value for each of the repair costs
the discount rate is 7%, so the present value of each repair cost is:
PV cash flow year 4 = $400 / 1.07⁴ = $305PV cash flow year 5 = $500 / 1.07⁵ = $356PV cash flow year 6 = $600 / 1.07⁶ = $400PV cash flow year 7 = $800 / 1.07⁷ = $498total $1,5595. The present value of the warranty and the expected profit for the warranty company
the present value of the warranty is $1,800, so the car company is making $1,800 - $1,559 = $241 in profits by selling you the warranty
6. Your conclusion
You shouldn't buy the extended warranty (negative NPV)
According to the Marketing Concept, a. Companies produce only what customers want. b. A company should produce only basic products. c. Managements primary task is to convince buyers to purchase what we produce. d. Management’s most important task is to keep production costs low. e. ALL OF THE ABOVE. f. NONE OF THE ABOVE
Answer:
The answer is A
Explanation:
Companies should produce what customers want based on the marketing concept. Companies and customers are dependent on each other. Companies should focus on producing goods which consumers/customers want. These companies should think of what consumers want and the prices they would pay since it is the consumer that creates demand for goods and services that are produced by the company.
Therefore companies should produce only what consumers want else they would produce goods and services with little demand.

HAW, Inc. plans to pay a $1.10 dividend per share in 3 months and a $1.15 dividend in 6 months. HAW's share price today is $45.60 and the continuously compounded quarterly interest rate is 2.1%. What is the price of a forward contract, which expires immediately after the second dividend?
Answer:
$45.28
Explanation:
The computation of price of a forward contract is shown below:-
Cash flows Future Value Amount Amount
A $45.60 $45.6 × exponential(0.021 × 2) $47.55599
B $1.10 $1.10 × exponential(0.021 × 1) $1.123344
C $1.15 $1.15 × exponential(0.021 × 0) $1.15
So, The value of forwards contract = Amount of A - Amount of B - Amount of C
= $47.55 - $1.12334 - $1.15
= $45.28
Before year-end adjusting entries, Marigold Corp.'s account balances at December 31, 2020, for accounts receivable and the related allowance for uncollectible accounts were $1540000 and $91500, respectively. An aging of accounts receivable indicated that $123000 of the December 31 receivables are expected to be uncollectible. The accounts receivable amount expected to be collected after adjustment is
Answer:
1,417,000
Explanation:
$123000 of the December 31 receivables is to be subtracted from $1540000 of the related allowance for uncollectible accounts
= $1540000 - $123000
= $1,417,000.
The accounts receivable amount expected to be collected after adjustment is $1,417,000

Samantha and Adam own a gardening business together. They each pull weeds from flower beds and rake up leaves for their neighbors. If each decides to specialize in what they are best at, Samantha will
a.weed and Adam will rake because these are the goods each has a comparative advantage in.
b.rake and Adam will weed because these are the goods each has a comparative advantage in.
c.weed and Adam will rake because these are the goods each has an absolute advantage in.
d.rake and Adam will weed because these are the goods each has an absolute advantage in.
Answer:
The correct option is A, Samantha weed and Adam will rake because these are the goods each has a comparative advantage in.
Explanation:
The opportunity formula comes handy in this case, which is given below:
opportunity cost formula=what one sacrifices/what one gains
If Samantha were to weed flower beds, opportunity cost is computed thus:
Opportunity cost of Samantha weeding flower beds=8/4= 2 bags of leaves raked
The opportunity of Adam weeding flower beds=25/5 =5 bags of leaves raked.
In a nutshell ,if Samantha weeds flowers they would lose 2 bags of leaves raked while if Adam were to do so same, they would lose 5 bags of leaves raked, conclusively Samantha should weed flower beds since she has lower opportunity, higher comparative advantage
Calculate the firm’s WACC (using 2018 numbers). (You will need to collect information on the long-term debt and common stock equity from the Balance Sheet. The firm has no preferred stock).
Use the WACC to calculate NPV and evaluate IRR for proposed capital budgeting projects. Assume the projects are mutually exclusive and the firm has the money available to fund the project
A 7.5% percent annual coupon bond with 20 years to maturity, selling for 104 percent of par. The bonds make semiannual payments. What is the before tax cost of debt? If the tax rate is 40%, what is the after-tax cost of debt?
The firm’s beta is 1.2. The risk-free rate is 4.0% and the expected market return is 9%. What is the cost of equity using CAPM?
Answer:
Before tax cost of debt is 7.12%
After tax cost of debt is 4.27%
Cost of equity is 10%
Explanation:
The before-tax cost of debt can be determined using excel rate formula as found below:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the number of semiannual payments the bond has i.e 20*2=40
pmt is the amount of semiannual payment=$1000*7.5%*6/12=$ 37.50
pv is the current price =$1000*104%=$1,040.00
fv is the face value of $1000
=rate(40,37.50,-1040,1000)=3.56%
The 3.56% is semiannual yield, hence 7.12% per year (3.56%*2)
After-tax cost of debt=7.12%*(1-t) where is the tax rate of 40% or 0.4
after-tax cost of debt=7.12%*(1-0.40)=4.27%
Cost of equity is determined using the below CAPM formula:
Ke=Rf+Beta*(Mr-Rf)
Rf is the risk free rate of 4%
Beta is 1.2
Mr is the market return of 9%
Ke=4%+1.2(9%-4%)=10.00%

A steel company manufactures heavy-duty brackets for the shelving industry. The company has budgeted for the production and sale of 1,000,000 brackets and has no beginning or ending inventory. Relevant operational, revenue, and cost data is as follows: Unit selling price of a bracket $22.50 Direct material required per unit 4 pounds Direct labor required per unit 0.15 hours Cost of material per pound $1.75 Direct labor cost per hour $9.00 Total variable selling costs $2,250,000 Total fixed costs $1,500,000 Based on the data provided, what is the unit contribution margin per bracket
Answer:
Contribution margin per unit = $11.90
Explanation:
Given:
Total unit sale = 1,000,000
Unit selling price of a bracket = $22.50
Direct material required = 4 pounds per unit
Direct labor required = 0.15 hours per unit
Cost of material per pound = $1.75
Direct labor cost per hour = $9.00
Total variable selling cost = $2,250,000
Find:
Contribution margin per unit = ?
Computation:
Direct material per unit = 4 pounds per unit × $1.75
Direct material per unit = $7
Direct labor per unit = 0.15 hours per unit × $9.00
Direct labor per unit = $1.35
Variable selling cost per unit = Total variable selling cost / Total unit sale
Variable selling cost per unit = $2,250,000 / 1,000,000
Variable selling cost per unit = $2.25
Contribution margin per unit = Sales per unit - Variable cost per unit
Contribution margin per unit = Sales per unit - [Direct material per unit + Direct labor per unit + Variable selling cost per unit]
Contribution margin per unit = $22.50 - [$7 - $1.35 - $2.25]
Contribution margin per unit = $22.50 - [$10.6]
Contribution margin per unit = $11.90

A company uses a process costing system. Its Welding Department completed and transferred out 100,000 units during the current period. The ending inventory in the Welding Department consists of 30,000 units (75% complete with respect to direct materials and 40% complete with respect to conversion costs). Determine the equivalent units of production for the Welding Department for direct materials and conversion costs assuming the weighted average method.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of equivalent units of production for direct materials and conversion costs is shown below:-
Direct material Conversion
Completed 100,000 100,000
Ending Work in progress
Direct material 22,500
(30,000 × 0.75)
Conversion 12,000
(30,000 × 0.40)
Equivalent Units of
Production 122,500 112,000
So, to reach the equivalent units of production of direct material we simply added the completed and transferred out units with direct material and for conversion we added the completed and transferred out units with conversion units.
Faber Products has $35 million of sales and $9.75 million of net income. Its total assets are $150 million. Assume the company’s total assets equal total invested capital, and its capital structure consists of 40% debt and 60% common equity. The firm’s interest rate is 4%, and its tax rate is 21%. What would happen if this firm used less leverage (debt)?
Answer:
If the firm uses less leverage, its ROE will decrease since the cost of equity is much higher than the cost of debt. If all debt is eliminated, then ROE will decrease to 7.764% from 10.83%.
Explanation:
net income = $9.75 million
capital structure:
$90 million equity$60 million debtinterest rate = 4% and tax rate = 21%
current return on equity (ROE) = $9.75 / $90 = 10.83%
current return of assets (ROA) = $9.75 / $150 = 6.5%
cost of debt = 4% x (1 - 21%) = 3.16%
if the company issues more equity to lower debt to 0, then:
net income = $9.75 + [$60 million x 4% x (1 - 21%)] = $9.75 + $1.896 = $11.646 million
return on equity (ROE) = $11.646 / $150 = 7.764%
return of assets (ROA) = $11.646 / $150 = 7.764%
Kerbow Corporation uses part B76 in one of its products. The company's Accounting Department reports the following costs of producing the 12,000 units of the part that are needed every year. An outside supplier has offered to make the part and sell it to the company for $27.40 each. If this offer is accepted, the supervisor's salary and all of the variable costs, including direct labor, can be avoided. The special equipment used to make the part was purchased many years ago and has no salvage value or other use. The allocated general overhead represents fixed costs of the entire company. If the outside supplier's offer were accepted, only $6,000 of these allocated general overhead costs would be avoided. In addition, the space used to produce part B76 could be used to make more of one of the company's other products, generating an additional segment margin of $29,000 per year for that product.A. Prepare a report that shows the effect on the company's total net operating income of buying part B76 from the supplier rather than continuing to make it inside the company.B. Identify which alternative the company should choose and explain why.C. Determine what errors managers may make when considering make or buy decisions and basing the decision solely on the data?
Answer:
12,000 units
outside supplier offers at $27.40 each = $328,800
current relevant costs:
direct materials $7.20 x 12,000 = $86,400direct labor $7.10 x 12,000 = $85,200variable overhead $3.50 x 12,000 = $42,000 supervisor's salary $4.70 x 12,000 = $56,400total = $270,000only $6,000 of allocated fixed costs can be avoided
additional revenue from using the freed space $29,000
A. Prepare a report that shows the effect on the company's total net operating income of buying part B76 from the supplier rather than continuing to make it inside the company.
Keep Buy Differential
producing from vendor amount
production cost $270,000 $0 $270,000
purchase cost $0 $328,800 ($328,800)
avoidable costs $0 ($6,000) $6,000
additional revenue $0 ($29,000) $29,000
total $270,000 $293,800 ($23,800)
B. Identify which alternative the company should choose and explain why.
The company should keep producing the part because production costs are lower than buying it from an outside vendor.
C. Determine what errors managers may make when considering make or buy decisions and basing the decision solely on the data?
If we had made this decision based on total production costs, then management would have erroneously chosen to purchase the part from an outside vendor. Total production costs are $28.30 per unit, but almost $5.80 per unit are not avoidable (mostly fixed and general overhead), so the company will incur them no matter what. You have to compare only relevant costs or revenues.
Elegant Limited sells restored classic cars. Most of its customers are private buyers who buy cars for themselves. However, some of them are investors who buy multiple cars and hold them for resale. All sales of Elegant Limited are for cash.
Depict the association and cardinality for the sales of cars at Elegant Limited based on REA model. (10 marks, maximum 300 words)
Answer:
Elegant Limited
Depiction of the Association and Cardinality for the sales of cars:
1. Association: At Elegant Limited, for a car to be sold, a relationship must be established between Elegant Limited and some of its customers (private buyers and investors). A sale of car involve the exchange of economic resources. While Elegant Limited exchanges the cars for cash receipts, the customers exchange their cash for cars. Two economic resources are involved in the sale of cars, which are exchanged between two economic agents (Elegant Limited and customers) in a business event.
2. Cardinality: In each of the economic events involving the sale of cars to customers and the receipt of cash from customers, two elements are involved, which are the exchanges of resources. Cars and Cash are the elements that show their cardinality in the economic event. These elements are known as economic resources.
Explanation:
a) The REA Model is a tool for modelling business processes. In the sales process, one event would be the “sales of cars,” occasioning the giving of cars for “cash receipt,” the other event. These two events are linked as a cash receipt occurs in exchange for a sale, and vice versa. The REA Model was originally proposed in 1982 by William E. McCarthy as a generalized accounting model, and contained the concepts of resources, events and agents, according to wikipedia.com.
b) Association refers to the relationship existing when an event takes place. At least, two persons are impacted by any event, the giver and the receiver. For an economic event involving the exchange of resources to happen, two economic agents are involved. Otherwise, no transaction can take place. The seller of cars (Elegant Limited) and the buyers (Customers both private and investors).
c) Cardinality refers to the elements that make up an economic event, for example. The sale of cars and receipt of cash are economic events happening in a business relationship between Elegant Limited and Customers. The elements that make up the events are the resources (cars and cash), which are exchanged.
Which of the following comes closest to the value at the end of year 6 of investing $600 today (year 0) and then investing another $600 at the end of year 5 if the interest rate is 3%?
a. $ 1,434
b. $ 1,334
c. $ 1,542
d. $ 1,383
e. $ 1,487
Answer:
The correct answer is B.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Investment= $600 today and $600 at the end of year 5
Interest rate= 3%
To calculate the final value, we need to apply the following formula on each investment:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 600*(1.03^6)= $716.43
FV= 600*(1.03^1)= $618
Total FV= $1,334.43

Maxxie purchased a tract of land for $24,500. Today, the same land is worth $43,800. How many years have passed if the price of the land has increased at an annual rate of 6.4 percent
Answer:
9.35 years
Explanation:
To find the numbers of years that have passed, you can use the following formula:
n = ln(FV / IV)/ln(1 + r)
n= number of periods
FV= Future value= $43,800
IV= Initial value= $24,500
r= rate= 6.4%
n=ln(43,800/24,500)/ln(1+0.064)
n= ln1.79/ln1.064
n=0.58/0.062
n= 9.35
According to this, 9.35 years have passed.

Sort the items below into two main categories: whether demand for each type of good is relatively elastic or relatively inelastic.
A. Goods that are narrowly defined.
B. Goods on which consumers spend a small share of their budget.
C. Consumers have a long time to adjust to a change in price.
D. Goods that have a large number of available substitutes.
E. Goods that are necessities.
Answer:
A. Relatively elastic
B. Relatively inelastic
C. Relatively elastic
D. Relatively elastic
E. Relatively inelastic
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes
Demand is inelastic if there's little or no change in quantity demanded when the price of the good changes.
If Consumers have a long time to adjust to a change in price, demand is usually elastic because consumers would have enough time to adjust to price changes. For example, if the price of the good has increased and the consumer has enough time to adjust to the price change, the consumer would have enough time to find cheaper suitable substitutes.
The elasticity of demand for necessities is usually inelastic because consumers have no choice but to buy the product. For example, water is considered a necessity. If the price of a bottle of water increases, consumers have no choice but to consume water so they would keep buying the bottle of water despite the increase in price.
Goods that have many substitutes usually have an elastic demand because the good can be easily replaced with the numerous substitutes available.
Goods on which consumers spend a small share of their budget usually have an inelastic demand. For example, if you earn $500,000 and you usually buy a product for 10 cents and the price increases to 15 cents, you would probably not stop purchasing the product as a result of the price increase since it constitutes a negligible part of your budget.
Goods that are narrowly defined have an elastic demand. For example, there are many substitutes for bread but there are no subsituites for food.
