Answer:
i. Discounted cashflow equations.
a. $180,000 at the end of five years.
This is a lump sum present value/ discounted cashflow which can be calculated as;
Formula = 180,000 / ( 1 + r)^n
= 180,000/ ( 1 + 12%)^5
= $102,136.83
b. $11,400 a year forever
This is a perpetuity. The present value/ discounted cashflow of a perpetuity is calculated as;
Formula = Amount/rate
= 11,400/12%
= $95,000
c. $19,000 for each of 10 years.
This is an annuity. The formula for calculating the Present value/ discounted cashflow of an annuity is;
[tex]Formula = Annuity * [\frac{( 1 - (1 + i)^{-n} )}{i} ][/tex] where i is interest rate and n is number of periods
[tex]= 19,000 * [\frac{( 1 - (1 + 0.12)^{-10} )}{0.12} ][/tex]
= $107,354.24
d. $6,500 next year and increasing thereafter by 5% a year forever.
This is a growing perpetuity. The present value/ discounted cashflow formula is;
= Amount / ( discount rate - growth rate)
= 6,500 / ( 12% - 5%)
= $92,857.14
ii. Choose $19,000 for each of 10 years as it has the highest present value.
Some states have recently restructured (or are considering restructuring) their electricity industries to allow utilities to purchase wholesale electricity supplies from competitive electric generators in deregulated markets. What do you think has changed that allows state policy makers to consider deregulation?
Answer:
Innovative technologies brought about by competition in the industry that cannot be fostered by state owned electricity corporations or industry
Explanation:
power sector deregulation which allow for private owned power distribution companies are done for the purpose of encouraging competition in the power sector market by eliminating monopoly brought about by state owned power sectors. This consequently eliminates lethargy and inefficiency and non customer focused state owned sectors giving birth to competitive markets where private companies can compete on prices and deliver innovative technologies to solve power problems and satisfy consumers
Pricing Stock Issues in an IPO Zang Industries has hired the investment banking firm of Eric, Schwartz, & Mann (ESM) to help it go public. Zang and ESM agree that Zang's current value of equity is $60 million. Zang currently has 3 million shares outstanding and will issue 1.6 million new shares. ESM charges a 9% spread. What is the correctly valued offer price? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent. $ How much cash will Zang raise net of the spread? Enter your answer in millions. For example, an answer of $1.234 million should be entered as 1.234, not 1,234,000. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to three decimal places. $ million
Answer:
A. $ l19.08
B. $27,780,480
Explanation:
A. Calculation for the correctly valued offer price
Using this formula
Correctly Valued Offer Price = Current Value of Equity/[(Number of new share issued*Spread)+ Number of Outstanding shares)
Let plug in the formula
Correctly Valued Offer Price= 60,000,000/[(1, 600,000*9%)+3,000,000]
Correctly Valued Offer Price=60,000,000/(144,000+3,000,000)
Correctly Valued Offer Price= 60,000,000/3,144,000
Correctly Valued Offer Price= $ 19.08
Therefore the correctly valued offer price will be
$ 19.08
B. Calculation for How much cash will Zang raise net of the spread
Using this formula
Cash Raised net of Spread = Valued offer price(1-spread)*No. of new share issued
Let plug in the formula
Cash Raised net of Spread = 19.08(1-0.09)*1,600,000
Cash Raised net of Spread =(19.08*091)*1,600,000
Cash Raised net of Spread =17.3628*1,600,000
Cash Raised net of Spread =$27,780,480
Therefore Cash Raised net of Spread will be $27,780,480
Limit pricing will effectively deter entry when:________.
A. the incumbent links the pre-entry price to post-entry profits.
B. the incumbent has incomplete information.
C. the entrant must commit to enter the market.
D. All of the statements associated with this question are correct.
Answer:
A. the incumbent links the pre-entry price to post-entry profits.
Explanation:
Only when the pre-entry price (which is a threat for the entrant) is low enough and at the same time can give post entry profits, will the incumbent’s plan be successful and would deter entry. However, A limit pricing is a technique used by some major producers, in which they sell their goods or services at such low prices that and makes it difficult for any other firm to enter his market as it makes their entry extremely unprofitable.

Alice deposits $2000 at time 0 under a nominal interest rate 6% compounded monthly for two years. And the end of the first year she deposit another $3000 under a nominal interest rate 7% compounded quarterly for one year. What is the equivalent annual effective interest rate for these two deposits over the first two years (i.e. the rate under which Alice would have the same total balance at time 2)
Answer:
effective rate of 6.59%
Explanation:
First, we solve for the amount after 2-years
[tex]2,000 \times (1 +\frac{0.06}{12}) ^{2 \times 12})+ 3,000 (1+\frac{0.07}{4})^4=[/tex]
[tex]Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount[/tex]
Principal 2,000.00
time 24.00
rate 0.00500
[tex]2000 \: (1+ 0.005)^{24} = Amount[/tex]
Amount 2,254.32
[tex]Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount[/tex]
Principal 3,000.00
time 4.00
rate 0.01750
[tex]3000 \: (1+ 0.0175)^{4} = Amount[/tex]
Amount 3,215.58
Total: 2,254.32 + 3,215.58 = 5,469.90
Now, we solve for the effective rate:
[tex]2,000(1+r_e)^2 + 3,000(1+r_e) - 5,469.90 = 0[/tex]
We use the quadratic formula and find the roots:
2.5658882124183746
1.0658882124183746
we use the positive one.
Getting an effective rae of 6.59%
SDJ, Inc., has net working capital of $2,060, current liabilities of $5,550, and inventory of $1,250. What is the current ratio? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) Current ratio times What is the quick ratio? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) Quick ratio times
Answer: Current ratio = 1.37
Quick ratio = 1.15
Explanation:
The following can be deduced from the question:
Current assets is the addition of the net working capital and the current liabilities. This will be:
= $2060 + $5550
= $7610
The Current ratio will be the current assets divided by the current liabilities. This will be:
= $7610/$5550
Current ratio = 1.37
Quick ratio will be the subtraction of invention form the current asset and the result gotten is divided by the current liabilities. This will be:
= ($7610 - $1250)/$5550
= $6360/$5550
= 1.15

Answer:
many undeveloped and impoverished national markets of eastern Europe, Latin America, Africa, and Asia are potentially enormous for international business.
e.g. Brazil, Mexico, Nigeria
Explanation:
all the other options are wrong because:
East European communist ideology is now widespread. a lack of deregulation was the cause for the global financial crisis of 2008–2009. ⇒ THIS IS FALSE BECAUSE COMMUNISM IS DEAD. BOTH RUSSIA (FORMER USSR LEADER) AND CHINA WHICH WERE THE LARGEST COMMUNIST COUNTRIES HAVE EMBRACED CAPITALISM.
it is guaranteed that democracy will thrive in most of the world's newer democratic states. ⇒ THIS IS FALSE, A LOT OF NEWLY CREATED DEMOCRATIC STATES FELL INTO CIVIL WAR. UKRAINE IS THE LATEST EXAMPLE
the multipolar world dominated by a number of civilizations of the Cold War era has vanished and is now being replaced by a bipolar world. ⇒ THE OPPOSITE IS TRUE. DURING THE COLD WAR THE WORLD WAS DOMINATED BY THE US AND THE USSR (BIPOLAR WORLD), NOW THE WORLD STAGE HAS MORE ACTORS WHICH MAKE SIT A MULTIPOLAR WORLD (E.G. CHINA, THE EU).

For Gee-Whiz Devices calculate the following: working capital, current ratio, and acid-test ratio Gee-Whiz Devices Balance Sheet Data Cash Market securities Net accounts and notes receivable Retailers inventories Prepaid expenses Accounts and notes payable (short-term) Accrued expenses $100,000 45,000 150,000 200,000 8,000 315,000 90,000
Answer:
1. Working Capital
= Current Assets - Current Liabilities
= ( Cash + Marketable Securities + Net accounts and notes receivable + Retailers Inventories + Prepaid expenses) - ( Accounts and notes payable(Short term) + Accrued expenses)
= ( 100,000 + 45,000 + 150,000 + 200,000 + 8,000) - ( 315,000 + 90,000)
= $98,000
2. Current Ratio
= Current Assets/ Current Liabilities
= ( Cash + Marketable Securities + Net accounts and notes receivable + Retailers Inventories + Prepaid expenses) / ( Accounts and notes payable(Short term) + Accrued expenses)
= ( 100,000 + 45,000 + 150,000 + 200,000 + 8,000) / ( 315,000 + 90,000)
= 1.24
3. Quick Ratio
= (Current Assets - Inventory) / Current Liabilities
= ( 100,000 + 45,000 + 150,000 + 8,000) / ( 315,000 + 90,000)
= 0.75
Excerpt from Areojet Corporation records for month of February: Per Unit Per Month Selling price $ 200,000 Direct materials used in production 40,000 Direct labor 10,000 Variable manufacturing overhead 2,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 140,000 Variable selling and administrative expenses 20,000 Fixed selling and administrative expenses 40,000 Assuming the absorption costing method is used, what is the total manufacturing costs added to work in process during the month of February
Answer:
Work in process= $192,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct materials used in production 40,000
Direct labor 10,000
Variable manufacturing overhead 2,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 140,000
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.
Work in process= 40,000 + 10,000 + 2,000 + 140,000
Work in process= $192,000
g You are considering the purchase of an industrial printer for your business. The salesman states that you can purchase the printer today for $92,000 or pay nothing today and make monthly installment payments of $1,910 for 5 years. Your company's current financing rate is 7.00% annually. What is the present value of the monthly payment plan and which payment option should you choose
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
First we have to find the present value based on monthly payment i.e. to be determined by using the present value formula and the same is to be shown in the attachment
Given that,
Future value = $0
Rate of interest = 7% ÷ 12 months = 0.58333%
NPER = 5 years × 12 months = 60 months
PMT = $1,910
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)
So, after applying the above formula, the present value is $96,458.90
As it can be seen than the lumpsum amount i.e. $92,000 is less than the monthly payment present value so here the lumpsum option should be chosen.
Consider an investment opportunity set formed with two securities that are perfectly negatively correlated. The global minimum-variance portfolio has a standard deviation that is always _________.
A.) equal to -1
B.) greater than 0
C.) equal to the sum of the securities' standard deviations
D.) equal to 0
Answer:
D.) equal to 0
Explanation:
If a portfolio is made up of two securities that are perfectly negatively correlated, meaning that if one increases its value, the other one will decrease in the exact opposite way, the standard deviation of the portfolio will always be 0. You can determine the variance for each stock, but due to the perfectly negative correlation, they will cancel out.

What is Frank’s opportunity cost of producing 1 burger? 4. What is Bob’s opportunity cost of producing 1 burger? 5. What is Frank’s opportunity cost of producing 1 pizza? 6. Who has the absolute advantage in producing burgers? 7. Who has the absolute advantage in producing pizzas? 8. Who has the comparative advantage in producing burgers? 9. Who has the comparative advantage in producing pizzas? 10. What would acceptable terms of trade be between Bob and Frank? Hours need
Answer:
1. It is an input problem (time).
2. Bob's opportunity cost of producing 1 pizza:
= 6 (12/2) burgers that it could have produced using 12 minutes it used to produce 1 pizza.
3. Frank's opportunity cost of producing 1 burger:
= 0.25 (3.75/15) pizzas that it could have produced using 3.75 minutes to produce 1 burger.
4. Bob's opportunity cost of producing 1 burger:
= 0.17 (2/12) pizzas that it could have produced using 2 minutes to produce 1 burger.
5. Frank's opportunity cost of producing 1 pizza:
= 4 burgers (15/3.75) that it could have produced using 15 minutes to produce 1 pizza.
6. Bob has the absolute advantage in producing burgers. It produces 30 burgers in 1 hour than Frank.
7. Bob has the absolute advantage in producing pizzas. It produces 5 pizzas in 1 hour than Frank.
8. Bob has the comparative advantage in producing burgers. It uses 2 minutes to produce 1 burger instead of Frank's 3.75 minutes.
9. Bob has the comparative advantage in producing pizzas. It uses 12 minutes to produce 1 pizza instead of Frank's 15 minutes.
10. The acceptable terms of trade would be for Bob to devote 2 hours in producing 60 burgers and selling to Frank while Frank produces 8 pizzas using 2 hours and selling to Bob. But, since Bob has absolute and comparable advantage over Frank in the production of the two items, it seems that Frank should allow Bob to produce them, while it devotes its hours in producing another product or service where it has comparative advantage.

Sawyer Company had the following information for the year: Direct materials used $ 197,700 Direct labor incurred (7,600 hours) $ 248,100 Actual manufacturing overhead incurred $ 335,000 Sawyer Company used a predetermined overhead rate using estimated overhead of $382,500 and 8,500 estimated direct labor hours. Assume the only inventory balance is an ending Finished Goods Inventory balance of $9,400. What was adjusted cost of goods sold
Answer:
adjusted cost of goods sold is $771,400.
Explanation:
Predetermined Overheads = Estimated Overheads ÷ Estimated Activity
= $382,500 ÷ 8,500
= $45
Calculate the Manufacturing Cost
Direct materials $ 197,700
Direct labor $ 248,100
Applied Overheads (7,600 × $45) $342,000
Cost of Goods Manufactured $787,800
Calculate the Cost of Sales
Beginning Finished Goods Inventory $0
Add Cost of Goods Manufactured $787,800
Less Ending Finished Goods Inventory ($9,400)
Cost of Goods Sold $778,400
Adjust the Cost of Sales
Applied Overheads : $342,000 > Actual Overheads $ 335,000, we say that overheads are over-applied.
Therefore,
Cost of Goods Sold $778,400
Less Overheads over-applied ($342,000 - $ 335,000) ($7,000)
Adjusted Cost of Goods Sold $771,400

The General Fund levies property taxes in the amount of $1,000,000 for calendar year 2019. It expects to collect $950,000 during the year, $30,000 in the first 60 days of the next year, and $15,000 during the rest of the next year. It does not expect to collect the remaining $5,000. How much property tax revenue should it recognize for the year 2019?
Answer:
Under the accrual basis, it should recognize $1,000,000 as property tax revenue for the year 2019. The remaining $45,000 that it does not collect in year 2019 will be accounted for as Property Tax Receivable while the $5,000 will be recorded as Uncollectible Expense in 2019.
Explanation:
The accrual concept or basis of accounting requires that all revenues and expenses relating to a fiscal year be recognized in that accounting year. It is not only the actual cash receipts and payments that should be recognized. This means that any revenue that is due but not yet received will be accounted for in the year that the revenue arises. And all the related expenses for raising the revenue will also be accounted for in the same year.
