Answer:
$10,985.73
Explanation:
The worth of the extended warranty in today's terms is the present value of all year-end repair expenses expected to be incurred in extending the warranty whereby the interest rate of 6% is the appropriate discount rate in this case as shown thus:
Present value of a future cash flow=cash flow/(1+discount rate)^n
n is the year in which the cash flow is expected, it is 1 for year 1 repair expenses , 2 for year 2 and so on.
PV of repair expenses=$2000/(1+6%)^1+$2000/(1+6%)^2+$4000/(1+6%)^3+$5000/(1+6%)^4
PV of repair expenses= $10,985.73
17. Calculating Future Values Streamsong Credit Bank is offering 4.7 percent compounded daily on its savings accounts. If you deposit $4,750 today, how much will you have in the account in 5 years
Answer:
Future value = $5912.87
Explanation:
Below is the calculation:
Interest rate = 4.7%
Present value of deposit = $4750
Time period, n = 5 years
Future value = Present value ( 1 + interest rate)^n
Future value = 4750 ( 1 + (4.7%/365)^5*365
Future value = 4750 (1 + 0.00012)^1825
Future value = $5912.87
If an investor buys a T-bill with a 90-day maturity and $50,000 par value for $48,500 and holds it to maturity, what is the annualized yield
Answer:
12.55%
Explanation:
Note that the T-bill rate of return is annualized based on 360-day count convention, hence, to begin with, let us determine the rate of return over a 90-day maturity period as shown thus:
rate of return over 90 days=(FV-PV)/FV
FV=face value=$50,000
PV=purchase price=$48,500
rate of return over 90 days=($50,000-$48,500)/$50,000
rate of return over 90 days=3.00%
annualized rate of return=(1+90day return)^(360/90)-1
the annualized rate of return=(1+3.00%)^(360/90)-1
the annualized rate of return=12.55%
A recent college graduate has obtained employment at a major financial institution in the big city. Since she just graduated, she has decided to continue to rent her college apartment in the suburbs and make the daily commute to the big city for work. She currently pays $1,200 per month to rent an apartment in the suburbs. She works at the bank five days a week and it takes her one hour each way to commute from her home to her office. According to the assumptions of the bid-rent model, what should this recent grad be willing to pay in rent per month to live in the big city if her hourly wage rate is $25
Answer:
$2,200
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what should this recent grad be willing to pay in rent per month
First step is to calculate the work days
Using this formula
Work days = 5 days per week x 1 hour to work+ 1 hour from work
Let plug in the formula
Work days = 5 days a week x 2 hours
Work days= 10 hours
The second step is to calculate the monthly commuting in a standard month of 4 weeks
Monthly commuting = 4 x 10 hours
Monthly commuting = 40 hours
Third step is to calculate hourly how much she will be able to maximize
Amount maximize = $25 x 40 hours (commuting hours)
Amount maximize= $1,000
Now let determine The total she will be willing to pay in rent
Rent per month= $1,200 + $1,000
Rent per month=$2,200
Therefore what should this recent grad be willing to pay in rent per month is $2,200

a. $500 fine for speeding while traveling to a client meeting.
b. $900 of interest on a short-term loan incurred in September and repaid in November. Half of the loan proceeds were used immediately to pay salaries and the other half was invested in municipal bonds until November.
c. $600 for office supplies in May of this year. He used half of the supplies this year and he will use the remaining half by February of next year.
d. $450 for several pair of work boots. Christopher expects to use the boots about 80 percent of the time in his business and the remainder of the time for hiking. Consider the boots to be a form of clothing.
Solution :
It is given that Christopher is the cash method and a calendar year taxpayer. He also made the cash payments that is related to the business for this year.
We have to assume marginal tax rate = 30 %
Therefore, the after tax cost for the payments are :
a). $ 500 - not deductible as it was a penalty for the violation.
b). 765 - half of the interest is not deductible. i.e. 900 x (1 - (0.5 x 0.3))
c). 420 - fully deductible, i.e. 600 x (1 - 0.3)
d). 450 - not deductible
A firm's current profits are $400,000. These profits are expected to grow indefinitely at a constant annual rate of 4 percent. If the firm's opportunity cost of funds is 6 percent, determine the value of the firm: Instructions: Enter your responses rounded to one decimal place. a. The instant before it pays out current profits as dividends. $ million b. The instant after it pays out current profits as dividends. $ million
Answer:
A. $21,200,000
B. $20,800,000
Explanation:
A. Calculation to determine The instant before it pays out current profits as dividends
Value of the firm =[(Current profits) × (1 +Opportunity cost of funds)} ÷ (Opportunity cost of funds - Constant growth annual rate)
Let plug in the formula
Value of the firm= [($400,000) × (1 + 0.06)]÷ (0.06 - 0.04)
Value of the firm= [($400,000) × (1.06)]÷0.02
Value of the firm= $424,000 ÷ 0.02
Value of the firm= $21,200,000
Therefore The instant before it pays out current profits as dividends will be $21,200,000
B. Calculation to determine The instant after it pays out current profits as dividends
Using this formula
Value of the firm =[(Current profits) × (1 +Constant growth annual rate)} ÷ (Opportunity cost of funds - Constant growth annual rate)
Let plug in the formula
Value of the firm= [($400,000) × (1 + 0.04)] ÷ (0.06 - 0.04)
Value of the firm= [($400,000) × (1.04)] ÷ (0.06 - 0.04)
Value of the firm= $416,000 ÷ 0.02
Value of the firm= $20,800,000
Therefore The instant after it pays out current profits as dividends will be $20,800,000

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? Assume that the project being considered has normal cash flows, with one outflow followed by a series of inflows. Group of answer choices To find a project's IRR, we must find a discount rate that is equal to the WACC. A project's IRR is found by discounting the cash inflows at the WACC to find the present value (PV), then compounding this PV to find the IRR. None of these Answers To find a project's MIRR, we must solve for the discount rate that causes the PV of the inflows to equal the PV of the project's costs. A project's MIRR is found by compounding the cash inflows at the WACC to find the terminal value (TV), then discounting this TV at the WACC
From 2009 to 2010, nominal gross domestic product (GDP) in the United States grew by 3.8%. Given that prices increased by 1% and the population grew by 1%, we know that per capita real GDP grew by: g

Three categories of activities (operating, investing, and financing) generate or use the cash flow in a company. In the following table, identify which type of activity is described by each statement
Operating Activity Investing Activity Financing Activity A company records a loss of $70,000 on the sale of its outdated inventory D and W Co. sells its last season's inventory to a discount store. Digiink Printing co. buys new machinery to ramp up its production capacity. Yum Brands distributes dividends to its common stockholders for the first
During the last year, Globo-Chem Co. generated $1,053.00 million in cash flow from operating activities and had negative cash flow generated from investing activities (-576.00 million). At the end of the first year, Globo-Chem Co. had $180 million in cash on its balance sheet, and the firm had $280 million in cash at the end of the second year. What was the firm's cash flow (CF) due to financing activities in the second year?
A. $471.25 million
B. $5.189.50 million
C. $282.75 million
D. $-377.00 million
Answer:
1. a. A company records a loss of $70,000 on the sale of its outdated inventory. OPERATING ACTIVITY.
Operating activities have to do with the day to day operations of the business.
b. D and W Co. sells its last season's inventory to a discount store. OPERATING ACTIVITY.
This is also a day-to-day operation of the business so it falls under operating activities.
c. DigiIink Printing co. buys new machinery to ramp up its production capacity. INVESTING ACTIVITY.
Investing activities have to do with the purchase and sale of capital assets such as financial assets in other companies or fixed assets. The machinery purchased here is a fixed asset so this will count as an investing activity.
d. Yum Brands distributes dividends to its common stockholders for the first. FINANCING ACTIVITY.
Financing activities have to do with the long term debt and equity of a company and this includes dividends so this falls under her.
2. Cashflow due to financing activities:
Cash Balance second year = Cash Balance first year + Cash Flows From Operating Activities + Cash Flows From Investing Activities + Cash Flows From Financing Activities
280 = 180 + 1,053 - 576 + Financing activities
280 = 657 + Financing activities
Financing cashflow = 280 - 657
= -$377 million

Vaughn Manufacturing incurred the following costs for 84000 units: Variable costs $504000 Fixed costs 392000 Vaughn has received a special order from a foreign company for 2500 units. There is sufficient capacity to fill the order without jeopardizing regular sales. Filling the order will require spending an additional $4500 for shipping. If Vaughn wants to earn $5000 on the order, what should the unit price be?
Answer: $9.80
Explanation:
The unit price to earn $5000 on the order will be calculated thus:
The variable costs for 2500 units will be:
= 504000/84000 × 2500
= 15000
The unit price will now be:
= (15000+4500+5000) / 2500
= 24500 / 2500
= $9.80
The unit price is $9.80
The appropriate discount rate for the following cash flows is 8 percent compounded quarterly. YearCash Flow 1 $800 2 800 3 0 4 1,200 What is the present value of the cash flows
Answer:
Total PV= $2,298.24
Explanation:
First, we need to determine the effective annual rate:
EAR= [1 + (i/n)]^n - 1
EAR= [1 + (0.08/4)]^4 - 1
EAR= 0.082
Now, we can determine the present value of the cash flow, using the following formula:
PV= ∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]
Cf1= 800 / 1.082= 739.37
Cf2= 800 / 1.082^2= 683.34
Cf3= 0
Cf4= 1,200 / 1.082^4= 875.53
Total PV= $2,298.24
Crane Company has 900 shares of 4%, $100 par cumulative preferred stock outstanding at December 31, 2018. No dividends have been paid on this stock for 2017 or 2018. Dividends in arrears at December 31, 2018 totala) $400.b) $3600.c) $7200.d) $0.
Answer:
c) $7200
Explanation:
Preference dividends have preference when it comes to payment of dividends.
This means that we pay the Preference Stock holders their dividend (which is fixed) and there after the remainder is paid up to the Common Stockholders
Preference dividend = 900 shares x $100 x 4 % = $3600
When Preference Stock is Cumulative, it means that all previous dividends in arrears have to be paid up before any current year distributions are made.
2018
Cumulative Preference dividend = $3600 (2017) + $3600 (2018) = $7200
therefore,
Dividends in arrears at December 31, 2018 total $7200

A company had an unadjusted Cost of Goods Sold of $1,690,000. The company closes its underapplied or overapplied overhead to Cost of Goods Sold. The company had actual manufacturing overhead of $650,000 and applied manufacturing overhead of $666,250. What is the adjusted Cost of Goods Sold for the year
Answer:
"$1,673,750" is the appropriate answer.
Explanation:
The given values in the question are:
Applied overhead,
= $666,250
Actual overhead,
= $650,000
Unadjusted cost,
= $1,690,000
Now,
The overapplied overhead will be:
= [tex]Applied \ overhead-Actual \ overhead[/tex]
= [tex]666,250-650,000[/tex]
= [tex]16,250[/tex] ($)
hence,
The goods sold's adjusted cost will be:
= [tex]Unadjusted \ cost-Overapplied \ overhead[/tex]
= [tex]1,690,000-16,250[/tex]
= [tex]1,673,750[/tex] ($)

Monopoly uses two steps to make a game. Step 1 takes 20 seconds. Step 2 takes 15 seconds. Each step is staffed by one worker, for a total of two workers. Each worker is paid $15 per hour. Each game is sold for $20. Material costs are $5 per game and fixed costs are $500 per hour. Demand rate is 120 games per hour. How much profit does Monopoly make per hour
Answer:
Monopoly
The profit that Monopoly makes per hour is:
= $1,876.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Direct labor costs:
Step 1, 20 seconds at $15 per hour = $5
Step 2, 15 seconds at $15 per hour = $3.75
Total 35 seconds at $15 per hour = $8.75
Direct materials cost $5
Variable cost per game = $13.75
Fixed cost per game = (500 * 35/60) = $292.00
Total cost of production = $305.75
Revenue (120 * $20) = $2,400
Variable cost per hour = 24 ($13.75 * 60/35)
Fixed cost per hour = 500
Total cost per hour = $524
Profit per hour = $1,876
P&R Company is an all-equity company. Its stock has a beta of .82. The market risk premium is 6.9 percent and the risk-free rate is 4.5 percent. The company is considering a project that it considers riskier than its current operations so it wants to apply an adjustment of 1.7 percent to the project's discount rate. What should the firm set as the required rate of return for the project?
Answer:
11.86%
Explanation:
Project's discount rate = Rf rate + Beta*risk premium
Project's discount rate = 4.5% + 0.82*6.9%
Project's discount rate = 4.5% + 5.658%
Project's discount rate = 10.158%
Required rate = Project's discount rate + Adjustment rate
Required rate = 10.158% + 1.7%
Required rate = 11.86%
Thus, the firm set 11.86% as the required rate of return for the project.
