Double your wealth. Kant Miss Company is promising its investors that it will double their money every years. What annual rate is Kant Miss promising? Is this investment a good deal? If you invest $ now and Kant Miss is able to deliver on its promise, how long will it take your investment to reach $? Using the Rule of 72, what annual rate is Kant Miss promising? 24% (Round to the nearest whole percentage.) Using the time value of money equation, what annual rate is Kant Miss promising? 25.99% (Round to two decimal places.) Is this investment a good deal?
Answer:
The question is incomplete, so I looked for a similar one:
"Kant Miss Company is promising its investors that it will double their money every 3 years. What annual rate is Kant Miss promising? Is this investment a good deal? If you invest $300 now and Kant Miss is able to deliver on its promise, how long will it take your investment to reach $26 comma 000?"
Since the number of years is very small, both the rule of 70 or 72 will not be very accurate. If you use the rule of 70 the answer is 23.33% and using the rule of 72 the answer is 24%, but both are wrong. In order to determine the correct interest rate you must solve the following:
2 = (1 + i)³
∛2 = ∛(1 + i)
1.2599 = 1 + i
i = 25.99%
If this deal was not a scam or a fraud, then it would be a great opportunity, but sometimes such great opportunities are generally false or simply an illusion (due to extremely high risk).
In order to determine how long it would take for $300 to turn into $26,000, we can use the future value formula:
26,000 = 300 x 1.2599ⁿ
1.2599ⁿ = 86.667
n = log 86.667 / log 1.2599 = 1.9379 / 0.1003 = 19.32 years

All too often companies today have failed to______________ their various communicationschannels, resulting in a hodgepodge of communications to consumers.
A) promote
B) rechannel
C) integrate

It is a well planned use of all communication channels to give a unified message to consumers
Suppose the Fed carries out an open market sale of $100m and simultaneously decreases the minimum required reserve ratio from 10% to 5%. The banking system has initially $100m of securities and $800m of loans. Assume that loans are used as currency by the borrowers. Deposits are kept constant to $1000m. Show the T-account of the banking system before and after these two operations. Do these operations increase the monetary base? Justify your answer.
Answer:
loanable amount after Fed operation = $950 M
Securities after fed operation = $50 M
attached below is the T-account table
Explanation:
Given data:
For assets : securities = $100 M , Loans = $800 M
For Liabilities : Constant demand deposit = $1000 M
difference between the assets and liability = $100 M and this makes the Banking system unbalanced hence the Banking system needs the intervention of the Fed. and the reduction in the required reserve ratio from 10% to 5% is the right action
How with the reserve ratio reduced to: 0.05
hence required Minimum required securities after operation = 0.05 * 1000 M = 50 M
Note : Total demand deposits = securities + loanable amount
therefore loanable amount after Fed operation = $1000 M - $50 M = $950
Attached below is the T-table
When both tables are compared it can be seen that there is a significant increase in the loanable amount after the Fed's operations and increase in Loanable amount transcends to increase in Monetary base

When common stock is issued by a corporation for a cash price above par value, the excess of the cash proceeds over the par value should be reported in the financial statements as a component of: Select one: a. Retained earnings on the balance sheet b. Total liabilities on the balance sheet c. Operating income on the income statement d. Total contributed capital on the balance sheet
Answer: d. Total contributed capital on the balance sheet
Explanation:
When Common stock is issued this is known as a Paid-In Capital. If there is an excess over the par value, this will be an additional amount and so will be recorded in the Additional Paid-In Capital account.
This account is on the Equity side of the balance sheet and will form part of the capital contribution to the company because it was given to the company by shareholders.

Smith and Baker Legal Services employs 6 full-time attorneys and 10 paraprofessionals. Budgeted salaries are $420,000 for each attorney and $140,000 for each paraprofessional. Budgeted indirect costs (e.g., rent, secretarial support, copying, etc.) are $980,000. The company traces the cost of attorney and paraprofessional time to each client and uses the total to assign indirect costs. What amount of indirect cost would be assigned if services to a client required $30,000 of attorney cost and $25,000 of paraprofessional cost
Answer:
Indirect cost for client is $13,750
Explanation:
Budgeted salaries = ($420,000 * 6) + ($140,000 * 10)
Budgeted salaries = $2,520,000 + $1,400,000
Budgeted salaries = $3,920,000
Budgeted indirect costs given = $980,000
Cost for client = $30,000 + $25,000
Cost for client =$55,000
Indirect cost for client is:
= $980,000 * ($55,000 / $3,920,000)
= $980,000 * 0.014031
= $13,750.38
= $13,750
The owner of a bicycle repair shop forecasts revenues of $212,000 a year. Variable costs will be $63,000, and rental costs for the shop are $43,000 a year. Depreciation on the repair tools will be $23,000. a. Prepare an income statement for the shop based on these estimates. The tax rate is 20%. b. Calculate the operating cash flow for the repair shop using the three methods given below: Now calculate the operating cash flow. Dollars in minus dollars out. Adjusted accounting profits. Add back depreciation tax shield.
Answer:
Sales Revenue 212,000
Variable Cost (63,000)
Rent Expense (43,000)
Depreciation Expense (23,000)
Income before taxes 83,000
Income tax expense (16,600)
Net Income 84,800
Cash from operating activities 107,800
tax-shield from depreciation 4,600
Explanation:
Cash flow from operations (indirect method)
net income 84,800 + depreciation expense = 107,800
The depreciation provides a tax shield as they are an accounting concept. The depreciation expense did not involve the outflow of cash but, it is a taxable deduction therefore generates a tax-shield.
23,000 x 20% = 4,600
Asset management ratios are used to measure how effectively a firm manages its assets, by relating the amount a firm has invested in a particular type of asset (or group of assets) to the amount of revenues the asset is generating. Examples of asset management ratios include the average collection period (also called the days sales outstanding ratio), the inventory turnover ratio, the fixed asset turnover ratio, and the total asset turnover ratio. Consider the following case: Polk Software Inc. has a quick ratio of 2.00x, $32,850 in cash, $18,250 in accounts receivable, some inventory, total current assets of $73,000, and total current liabilities of $25,550. The company reported annual sales of $100,000 in the most recent annual report. Over the past year, how often did Polk Software Inc. sell and replace its inventory
Answer:
Over the Past year the Polk Software Inc sold and replaced its inventory at 4.57x(times)
Explanation:
Value of inventory = Total current assets - Cash - Account receivable
Value of inventory = 73,000 - 32,850 - 18,250
Value of inventory = $21,900
Inventory turnover ratio = Sales/ Inventory
Inventory turnover ratio= $100,000 / $21,900
Inventory turnover ratio= 4.57 times
Over the Past year the Polk Software Inc sold and replaced its inventory at 4.57x(times)
Meyer Inc's total invested capital is $660,000, and its total debt outstanding is $185,000. The new CFO wants to establish a total debt to total capital ratio of 55%. The size of the firm will not change. How much debt must the company add or subtract to achieve the target debt to capital ratio
Answer:
$178,000
Explanation:
Calculation for How much debt to achieve the target debt ratio
First step is to find the Target amount of debt using this formula
Target amount of debt =Target debt percentage ×Total assets
Let plug in the formula
Target amount of debt =55%× $660,000
Target amount of debt=$363,000
Second step is to calculate for the Change in the amount of debt outstanding using this formula
Change in amount of debt outstanding = Target debt -Old debt
Let plug in the formula
Change in amount of debt outstanding =$363,00-$185,000
Change in amount of debt outstanding =$178,000
Therefore How much debt to achieve the target debt ratio will be $178,000

An investment offers $5,500 per year, with the first payment occurring one year from now. The required return is 7 percent. a. What would the value be today if the payments occurred for 20 years? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) b. What would the value be today if the payments occurred for 45 years? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) c. What would the value be today if the payments occurred for 70 years? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) d. What would the value be today if the payments occurred forever? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
a. What would the value be today if the payments occurred for 20 years?
this is an ordinary annuity, so we can use the present value of an ordinary annuity formula:
present value = annuity payment x annuity factor
annuity payment = $5,500PV annuity factor, 7%, 20 periods = 10.594present value = $5,500 x 10.594 = $58,267
b. What would the value be today if the payments occurred for 45 years?
present value = annuity payment x annuity factor
annuity payment = $5,500PV annuity factor, 7%, 45 periods = 13.60552present value = $5,500 x 13.60552 = $74,830.36
c. What would the value be today if the payments occurred for 70 years?
present value = annuity payment x annuity factor
annuity payment = $5,500PV annuity factor, 7%, 70 periods = 14.16039present value = $5,500 x 13.60552 = $77,882.25
d. What would the value be today if the payments occurred forever?
we must use the perpetuity formula:
present value = $5,500 / 7% = $78,571.43

a. $534.60.
b. $613.80.
c. $79.20.
d. $465.00.
e. $0.00.
Answer:
d. $465.00
Explanation:
Calculation for the amount of total unemployment taxes
FUTA tax rate $60.00
(0.8%×$7,500)
SUTA tax rate $405.00
(5.4%×$7,500)
Total unemployment taxes $465.00
Therefore the amount of total unemployment taxes the employer must pay on this employee's wages will be $465.00

Use the following information to calculate the interest rate on an eight year bond just issued by Becher inc. show work
inflation: next two years = 2.5%, year three and beyond = 4.5%
Pure rate= 2.0%
Maturity risk premium= zero for a 1 year maturity, increasing by .1% each year thereafter
Default risk premium= 1.5%
Liquidity risk premium = 0.0% for treasuries; 0.5% for corporate bonds
a. 7.7%
b. 8.2%
c. 8.7%
d. 9.2%
e. 9.4%
Answer:
c. 8.7%
Explanation:
Inflation for the next year is 2.5% and year 3 and beyond is 4.5%
Pure rate is 2.0%
Maturity Risk premium (MRP) is 0 for a 1-year maturity and increasing by 0.1% each year
Default Risk Premium (DRP) is 1.5%
Liquidity Risk Premium(LRP) is 0.0% for treasuries, 0.5% for Corporate bond
Interest rate = Pure rate + Inflation + LRP + MRP + DRP
= 2 + Inflation + 0.5 + (0.1*7) + 1.5%
= 2 + {(2 years * 2.5) + (6 years * 4.5) / 8} + 0.5 + (0.1*7) + 1.5%
= 2% + 4% + 0.5% + 0.7% + 1.5%
= 8.7%

Which of the following would contribute to the high price of health care?A. There are many providers of health care in the industry.B. Demand for health care is relatively elastic.C. Demand for emergency care is relatively inelastic.D. Supply of health care is limited.E. Many people use Medicare and Medicaid.
Answer:
C. Demand for emergency care is relatively inelastic.
D. Supply of health care is limited.
E. Many people use Medicare and Medicaid.
Explanation:
The Law of Supply posits that when there is a low supply of a good relative to its demand, the price will be higher because the good will be more scarce therefore people will have to pay more to get it. This is why in a situation where the supply of Health Care is limited, the price of health care will be high.
The law of demand states that when there are a lot of people demanding a good relative to its supply, the price of the good will be high because again, the good is now more scarce. When many people are using Medicare and Medicaid, there are more people able to afford health care meaning that demand is increased. This will increase the price of health care.
When a good's demand is said to be inelastic, it means that when prices change, the change in demand is less than the change in price. Prices of such goods will not have the incentive to remain low and will generally rise because the demand will not change by much. If demand for emergency care is relatively inelastic, the price will rise because demand will not change by much.

Explanation:
To determinate the price we will solve for the present value of the coupon payment and maturity at the market rate of %12
[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\[/tex]
Coupon payment:
260,000,000 x 10% x 1/2 =13,000,000.000
time 20 years x 2 payment per year 40
yield to maturity 12% / 2 = 6%
[tex]13000000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.06)^{-40} }{0.06} = PV\\[/tex]
PV $195,601,859.3298
[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]
Maturity 260,000,000.00
time 40.00
rate 0.06
[tex]\frac{260000000}{(1 + 0.06)^{40} } = PV[/tex]
PV 25,277,768.80
PV c $195,601,859.3298
PV m $25,277,768.8042
Total $220,879,628.1340
For the journal entries, we will multiply this current market price of the bonds by the market rate (YTM) the difference between this and the actual cash obligation generate by the bond is the amortization of the discount.
first interest payment
$220,879,628.13 x 6% = 13,252,777.69
less actual cash outlay: 13,000,000
amortization 252,777.69
second interest payment
($220,879,628.13- $252,777.69) x 6% = 13,267,944.35
less actual cash outlay: 13,000,000.00
amortization 267,944.35
