NewTech Incorporated management plans on paying the company's first dividend of $2.00 three years from today (D3 = $2.00) on its' common stock. After year three the dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5% thereafter. As an investor with a required rate of return of 15%, what would you pay for NewTech common stock today?

Answers

Answer:

Stock price today = $13.807

Explanation:

According to the dividend valuation model , the current price of a stock is the present value of the expected future dividends discounted at the required rate of return

This principle can be applied as follows:

The value of cash flow the stock today is the present value of the future cash flow discounted at the required rate of return

Step 1 : Compute the PV in year 3 of future dividend

PV = D× (1+g)/r-g

D- div in year 3, g- growth rate, r-required rate of return

PV in year 3 = 2× (1.05)/0.15-0.05

                   = 21

Step 2: PV in year in year 0

PV = PV in year 3 × (1+r)^(-n)

r-rate of return- 15%, n- number of years- 3

    =  21 × 1.15^(-3)

    =13.80784088

Stock price today = $13.807

Answer:

Dr  Valuation Allowance for Available-for-Sale Investments  $6890

Cr  unrealized gain/(loss) on AFS investments                                        $6890

Explanation:

The unrealized  gain or loss on the available-for-sale securities is the difference between its cost of $252,000 and the fair value of $258,890 on 31st December.

Gain/(loss)=$258,890-$252,000=$6890  unrealized gain

The amount would be credited to unrealized gain/(loss) on AFS investments while Valuation Allowance for Available-for-Sale Investments would be debited with the same amount

3. Determine the total interest expense for Year 1.

4. Will the bond proceeds always be less than the face amount of the bonds when the contract rate is less than the market rate of interest?

Yes, when the bond's interest rate is lower than the market rate, the bonds will be sold at a discount (less than face value). The market rate applicable to this bond issuance is the one used for similar bonds, so the market rate can change depending on the bond.

5. Compute the price of $37,282,062 received for the bonds by using the present value tables

the value of the bonds = PV of face value + PV of coupons

PV of face value = $40,000,000 / (1 + 4%)²⁰ = $18,255,478PV of annuity = $1,400,000 x PV annuity 4% for 20 periods = $1,400,000 x 13.59033 = $19,026,462

total value = $18,255,478 + $19,026,462 = $37,281,940

There is a small difference, $122, due to rounding errors from the annuity table. But the error is not significant, it represents only 0.0003% of the bonds' price.

Explanation:

issued $40,000,000 of 10-year, 7% bonds at a market (effective) interest rate of 8%, receiving cash of $37,282,062

coupon payment = $40,000,000 x 7% x 1/2 = $1,400,000

semiannual coupon paid December 31 and June 30

Discount on bonds payable $2,717,938 / 20 coupons = $135,896.90 ≈ $135,897 per coupon payment

Which of the following is NOT a pitfall an organization should avoid in strategic planning? Involving all managers rather than delegating planning to a "planner" Failing to communicate the plan to employees Failing to create a collaborative climate supportive of change Top managers not actively supporting the strategic-planning process Doing strategic planning only to satisfy accreditation or regulatory requirements

Answers

Answer:

Involving all managers rather than delegating planning to a "planner"

Explanation:

Strategic planning is a process of establishing the direction of a business. It assesses where the business is and where it is going. And the action plan needed to get to it's goal.

Delegating planning to a planner rather than involving all managers is an identified pitfall in strategic planning.

This is why Involving all managers rather than delegating planning to a "planner" is the correct answer since we are required to identify a non pitfall by the question.

Answers

Answer:

The stock is worth $38.99 per share today

Explanation:

We can calculate the value of the stock using the dividend discount model approach (DDM). The DDM values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. To calculate the price of the stock today, we simply discount back all the future expected dividends and terminal value (calculated when the growth rate in dividends become constant) to their present value using the required rate of return as the discount factor.

The value of ART company's stock today will be,

Answer: c)The actuarially determined amount necessary to cover claims, expenditures, and catastrophic losses.

Explanation:

The Expenditure on the account related to self - insurance activities  refers to the amounts that will be deducted from the fund for anything insurance related.

The insurance is meant to cover the claims and unlikely events of catastrophies. Therefore when those things do occur it will be deducted from the service fund to cover those things.

Those along with expenses incurred to maintain the fund will be considered expenses and that is the maximum amounts that can be deducted from the fund.

The owner of a small firm has just purchased a personal computer, which she expects will serve her for the next two years. The owner has been told that she "must" buy a surge suppressor to provide protection for her new hardware against possible surges or variations in the electrical current, which have the capacity to damage the computer. The amount of damage to the computer depends on the strength of the surge. It has been estimated that there is a 3% chance of incurring 350 dollar damage, 5% chance of incurring 250 dollar damage, and 12% chance of incurring 100 dollar damage from a surge within the next two years. An inexpensive suppressor, which would provide protection for only one surge, can be purchased. How much should the owner be willing to pay if she makes decisions on the basis of expected value

Answers

Answer:

$35

Explanation:

The computation of the expected value is shown below;

As we know that  

= Estimated chance of damage percentage × dollar damage + Estimated chance of damage percentage × dollar damage + Estimated chance of damage percentage × dollar damage

= 3% × $350 + 5% × $250 + 12% × $100

= $10.5 + $12.5 + $12

= $35

We simply multiplied the estimated chance of damage percentage with the dollar damage and then added the other two so that the expected value could arrive

Answers

Answer:

Their underlying asset beta is closest to is 1.08

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

Debt is given as $78 billion

Equity is given as $142 billion

equity beta given as 1.68

Therefore, in order to calculate the underlying asset beta we would have to use the formula of the the equity beta for a levered firm as follows:

betaE =beta A [1 + (Debt / Equity)]

1.68 = \beta A [1 + ($78 B/ $142 B)]

1.68 = \beta A [1 + 0.5493]

betaA = 1.68 / 1.5493

betaA = 1.08

Their underlying asset beta is closest to is 1.08

Answer:

1. It would be more efficient for society to devote more resources to the production of beer.

2. Society is currently devoting the efficient amount of resources to the production of beer.

Explanation:

1. If 4 million kegs of beer are sold, the marginal benefit exceeds marginal cost which means that: the society values this quantity of kegs of beer and would be more beneficial and efficient if the society devote more resources to beer production.

2. If 12 million kegs of beer are sold, where marginal cost equal marginal benefit, it means that this is a good point in which shows an efficient allocation of resources to beer production because the marginal cost of the resources is equal to the marginal benefit of each keg of beer.

If 4 million kegs of beers are sold, marginal benefit exceeds the marginal cost, which means that :

It would be more efficient for society to devote more resources to the production of beers.

Reason :

the advantage of an additional unit of producing a good is more than the cost of producing it.hence it is good to produce more where marginal benefit equals marginal cost.

If 12 million kegs of beers are sold, marginal cost exceeds the marginal benefit, which means that :

It would be more efficient for society to devote fewer resources to the production of beers.

a) Very few people move from one income quintile to another over the years.
b) Higher-income families tend to have more persons to support.
c) In-kind transfers do not add to people's incomes but are counted as income.

Answers

Answer:

c) In-kind transfers do not add to people's incomes but are counted as income.

Explanation:

In the given scenario the aim of the census is to measure income inequality in the population selected.

If however the amount of income earned by individuals is not estimated accurately the results of the study will be inaccurate.

In kind transfers are usually goods and services that a person gets for free of at a reduced rate. They are not considered to be income.

When in kind transfers are counted as income and do not actually add up to income, we cannot get a true picture of income of participants of the income survey.

People who have low income but high in kind transfers will be considered high income earners which is not true.

An investor is deciding whether to build a retail store. If she invests in the store and it is successful, she expects a return of $100,000 in the first year. If the store is not successful, she will suffer a loss of $80,000. She guesses that the probability that the store will be a success is 0.6. To remove some of the uncertainty from this decision, the investor tries to establish more information, but this market research will cost $20,000. If she spends this money, she will have more confidence in her investment. There is a 0.6 probability that this information will be favorable; if it is, the likelihood that the store will be a success increases to 0.9.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

expects a return of $100,000 in the first year

loss of $80,000

probability that the store will be a success is 0.6

research will cost $20,000

0.6 probability that this information will be favorable

store will be a success increases to 0.9

store will be a success reduces to only 0.2

a) Decision tree is attached

EMV= (payoff of first outcome) * (probability of first outcome) +  (payoff of second outcome) * (probability of second outcome) +  (payoff of third outcome) * (probability of third outcome)

EMV(node 1) = EMV(new store)

= ($100,000 * 0.6) + (-80,000 * 0.4)

=$28,000

EMV (node 2) = EMV (no store)

= $0

EMV (node 3) = EMV ( new store and favourable research)

= ($100,000 * 0.9) + (-80,000 * 0.1)

=$82,000

EMV (node 4) = EMV ( no store and favourable research)

= $0

EMV (node 5) = EMV ( new store and unfavourable research)

= ($100,000 * 0.2) + (-80,000 * 0.8)

= -$44,000

EMV (node 6) = EMV ( no new store and unfavourable research)

= $0

B) Here we compare EMV of not conducting the market research ans EMV of conducting the market research and the maximum EMV shall be taken for decision making

Here the EMV of conducting the market research is higher than not conducting

Hence, the investor can go to market research test. If result is positive, she can invest in the store, if negative she can stop the proposal.

Robinson Company purchased Franklin Company at a price of $2,500,000. The fair market value of the net assets purchased equals $1,800,000. 1.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Goodwill is defined as the excess in amount of the purchase price of a company over the fair value at acquisition.It is intangible in nature , meaning it can not be physically separated from the other assets. Example are patent , brand name , good employee relation.

1.

Goodwill calculation

Purchase price - $2,500,000

Fair value -          $1,800,000

Goodwill -               $700,000        

2.

No

Under the IAS 36, impairment of assets , goodwill is not amortized but annually tested for impairment as amortization is applicable to intangible assets with a definite useful life while intangible assets with indefinite useful life are annually tested for impairment to evaluate a loss in value experienced.

3

No

Under IAS 38 , Internally generated goodwill are not recognized as no related cost is incurred towards achieving a future benefit

CarsonWentz Company uses a job-order costing system. The company applies manufacturing overhead to jobs using a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours. Last year, manufacturing overhead and direct labor-hours were estimated at $88,000 and 16,000 hours respectively, for the year. In June, job #315 was completed. Materials costs on the job totaled $1,590 and labor costs totaled $2,340 at $6.50 per hour. At the end of the year, it was determined that the company worked 15,300 direct labor-hours for the year, and incurred $86,750 in actual manufacturing overhead cos

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated manufacturing overhead= $88,000

Estimated direct labor-hours= 16,000

Job 315:

Materials costs on the job totaled $1,590 and labor costs totaled $2,340 at $6.50 per hour.

At the end of the year, it was determined that the company worked 15,300 direct labor-hours for the year, and incurred $86,750 in actual manufacturing overhead costs.

With the information provided, we can calculate the total cost of Job 315 and the amount of under/over allocated overhead.

First, we need to determine the predetermined overhead rate:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 88,000/16,000= $5.5 per direct labor hour

Job 315:

Direct labor hours= 2,340/6.5= 360 hours

Total cost= 1,590 + 2,340 + 5.5*360= $5,910

Now, to calculate the over/under allocation, first, we need to allocate overhead for the whole company.

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 5.5*15,300= $84,150

Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead

Under/over applied overhead= 86,750 - 84,150= $2,600 underallocated

The expected average rate of return for a proposed investment of $800,000 in a fixed asset with a useful life of four years, straight-line depreciation, no residual value, and an expected total net income of $360,000 for the four years is

Answers

Answer:

22.5%

Explanation:

For computation of return on investment first we need to find out the average investment and average income per year which is shown below:-

Average investment = Proposed investment ÷ Average

= $800,000 ÷ 2

= $400,000

Now, the Average income per year = Expected total net income ÷ Number of year

= $360,000 ÷ 4

= $90,000

Return on investment = Average income per year ÷ Average investment

= $90,000 ÷ $400,000

= 0.225

or

= 22.5%
