Peace of Mind, Inc. (PMI) sells extended warranties for durable consumer goods such as washing machines and refrigerators. When PMI sells an extended warranty, it receives cash up front from the customer but later, it must cover any repair costs that arise.
An analyst working for PMI is considering a warranty for a new line of big-screen TVs. A consumer who purchases the 2-year warranty will pay PMI $210. On average, the repair costs that PMI must cover will average $106 for each of the warranty's 2 years.
If PMI has a cost of capital of 7%, should it offer this warranty for sale?

Which of the following theorems explains the relationship between interest rates and bond prices? For a given change in interest rates, the prices of higher-coupon bonds will change more drastically than the prices of lower-coupon bonds. For a given change in interest rates, the prices of long-term bonds will change more drastically than the prices of short-term bonds. Bond prices are directly related to interest rate movements. For a given change in interest rates, the prices of short-term bonds will change more drastically than the prices of long-term bonds.

Answers

Answer:

For a given change in interest rates, the prices of long-term bonds will change more drastically than the prices of short-term bonds.

Explanation:

A bond can be defined as a fixed income instrument that firms use as a source of longer-term funding or loans.

The par value of a bond is its face value and it comprises of its total dollar amount as well as its maturity value. Also, the par value of a bond gives the basis on which periodic interest is paid. Thus, a bond is issued at par value when the market rate of interest is the same as the contract rate of interest. This simply means that, a bond would be issued at par (face) value when the bond's stated rated is significantly equal to the effective or market interest rate on the specific date it was issued.

In Economics, bonds could either be issued at discount or premium.

Hence, a bond that is being issued at a discount has its stated rate lower than the market interest rate, on the specific date of issuance. Also, a bond that is being issued at a premium, has its stated rate higher than the market interest rate on the specific date of issuance.

Generally, bond price is inversely proportional to its interest rate, thus, when interest rates are high, bond prices would be low and when interest rates are low, bond prices are high.

The theorem that best explains the relationship between interest rates and bond prices is that for a given change in interest rates, the prices of long-term bonds will change more drastically than the prices of short-term bonds because long-term bondholders are liable to higher rate of interest rate risks than the short-term bondholders.

Stephan is the plaintiff in a negligence action against Viola. The jury determines that Stephan has suffered $250,000 in damages, but that he is 20% responsible for his own injuries. Under comparative negligence, how much money would Viola have to pay Stephan in damages? What if the jury determines that Stephan is 60% responsible? Explain the different results under pure and mixed comparative negligence rules.

Answers

Answer:

a. Under comparative negligence, the amount Viola have to pay Stephan in damages is $200,000.

b(i). Under pure comparative negligence, the amount Viola have to pay Stephan in damages is $100,000.

b(ii). Under mixed comparative negligence, the amount Viola have to pay Stephan in damages can be $100,000 or $0.

Explanation:

a. The jury determines that Stephan has suffered $250,000 in damages, but that he is 20% responsible for his own injuries. Under comparative negligence, how much money would Viola have to pay Stephan in damages?

Under a comparative negligence, the amount of damages that the plaintiff will receive is reduced to the percentage of fault of the defendant.

Based on this, the amount Viola have to pay Stephan in damages is 80% (i.e. 100% - 20%) of $250,000. Therefore, we have:

Amount Viola have to pay Stephan in damages = 80% * $250,000 = $200,000

b. What if the jury determines that Stephan is 60% responsible? Explain the different results under pure and mixed comparative negligence rules.

b(i) Pure Comparative Negligence is a rule that gives the plaintiff the opportunity to recover damages that is exactly equal to the percentage of fault of the defendant whether or not the fault of the plaintiff is greater than the fault of the defendant.

Under pure comparative negligence rule, the amount Viola have to pay Stephan in damages is therefore 40% (i.e. 100% - 40%) of $250,000. Therefore, we have:

Amount Viola have to pay Stephan in damages under pure comparative negligence rule = 40% * $250,000 = $100,000

b(ii) Mixed Comparative Negligence is a rule under which the plaintiff may receive only a percentage of damages of the defendant, or none at all if the percentage of fault of the plaintiff is 50% or more than 50% of the total fault.

Thereforem, if it is determined that the amount Viola have to pay Stephan in damages is exactly equal to the percentage of fault of the defendant,  the amount Viola have to pay Stephan in damages is therefore 40% (i.e. 100% - 40%) of $250,000. Therefore, we have:

Amount Viola have to pay Stephan in damages under pure comparative negligence rule = 40% * $250,000 = $100,000.

However, it it determined the plaintiff should be paid not damages,  Viola have to pay Stephan $0 amoun in damages.

Therefore, under mixed comparative negligence, the amount Viola have to pay Stephan in damages can be $100,000 or $0.

Answers

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.

Bloomington Brewery produces beer and ale. Beer sells for $5 per barrel, and ale sells for $2 per barrel. Producing a barrel of beer requires 5 lb of corn and 2 lb of hops. Producing a barrel of ale requires 2 lb of corn and 1 lb of hops. 60 lb of corn and 25 lb of hops are available. Formulate an LP that can be used to maximize revenue. Solve the LP graphically.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Let x represent the amount of beer sold and y represent the amount of ale sold. The revenue of selling x barrels of beer is 5x and selling y barrels of ale is 2y hence the total revenue = 5x + 2y. If z represent the maximum revenue then:

z = 5x + 2y

Since 60 lb of corn is available and beer requires 5 lb of corn while ale require 2 lb of corn hence:

5x + 2y ≤ 60

Also, 25 lb of hops is available and beer requires 2 lb of hops while ale require 1 lb of hops hence:

2x + y ≤ 25

Also x > 0 and y > 0

The LP is:

z = 5x + 2y

5x + 2y ≤ 60

2x + y ≤ 25

x > 0 and y > 0

Using geogebra graphing, the maximum revenue is at (0, 30)

Hence:

z = 5x + 2y = 5(0) + 2(30) = 60

The maximum revenue is 60

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

Who has the comparative advantage in producing pizzas? 10. What would acceptable terms of trade be between Bob and Frank? Hours need

Answers

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

Answers

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

Wadding Corporation applies manufacturing overhead to products on the basis of standard machine-hours. For the most recent month, the company based its budget on 4,500 machine-hours. Budgeted and actual overhead costs for the month appear below: Original Budget Based on 4,500 Machine-Hours Actual Costs Variable overhead costs: Supplies $ 12,000 $ 12,730 Indirect labor 38,400 38,700 Fixed overhead costs: Supervision 20,600 20,240 Utilities 6,800 6,760 Factory depreciation 7,800 8,110 Total overhead cost $ 85,600 $ 86,540 The company actually worked 4,520 machine-hours during the month. The standard hours allowed for the actual output were 4,510 machine-hours for the month. What was the overall variable overhead efficiency variance for the month

Answers

Answer:

Variable overhead efficiency variance= $112 unfavorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated budget:

4,500 Machine-Hours

Supplies $ 12,000

Indirect labor 38,400

Total= $50,400

The company worked 4,520 machine-hours during the month.

The standard hours allowed for the actual output were 4,510 machine-hours for the month.

First, we need to calculate the predetermined variable overhead rate:

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

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 50,400/4,500

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $11.2 per machine hour

Now, to calculate the variable overhead efficiency variance, we need to use the following formula:

Variable overhead efficiency variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*Standard rate

Variable overhead efficiency variance= (4,510 - 4,520)*11.2

Variable overhead efficiency variance= $112 unfavorable

One such company has seen steady growth in each period of 3 months, called a quarter, over the past 4 years. The scatterplot shows the relationship between the number of quarters since January 2014 and the log of the number of members to the streaming service. A least-squares equation that summarizes this relationship is Log subscribers hat = 0.026 (quarters) minus 1.299. A graph titled log (subscribers) versus quarters since January 2011 has quarters since January 2011 on the x-axis, and log (subscribers) on the y-axis. Points form a line with positive slope. A graph titled log (subscribers) versus quarters since January 2011 has quarters since January 2011 on the x-axis, and residual on the y-axis. Points are scattered throughout the graph. Based on the scatterplot and residual plot, what type of model is appropriate for comparing time and subscribers? A linear model is appropriate because the residual plot shows a random scatter of points. A logarithmic model is appropriate because the log of the number of subscribers was taken. A power model is appropriate because the relationship between period and the log of subscribers is roughly linear. An exponential model is appropriate because the relationship between period and the log of subscribers is roughly linear and the residual plot shows no distinct pattern. (-4) (-5) +2 (-3) = ?
