To peg the pounds per dollar exchange rate at a level higher than the market clearing exchange​ rate, the UK government needs to:_________.
a. buy pounds and sell dollars
b. buy dollars and sell pounds
c. simple announce a target exchange rate

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

b. and a

Explanation:

Answer:

b. and

Explanation:

Remember, when foreign exchange rates between two currencies of particular country rises (appreciates), it effects is experienced most by the country whose currency hasn't risen. In this case therefore, this would make U.S. consumers pay more dollars for each McLaren car they import from the UK.

Also, to peg the pounds per dollar exchange rate at a level higher than the market clearing exchange​ rate, the UK government needs to buy pounds and sell dollars, because reducing the supply of pounds in the exchange market creates an opportunity for higher exchange prices.

The phone bill for a corporation consists of both fixed and variable costs. Refer to the fourminusmonth data below and apply the highminuslow method to answer the question. Minutes Total Bill January 470 $ 4 comma 500 February 200 $ 2 comma 695 March 180 $ 2 comma 650 April 320 $ 2 comma 830 If the company uses 390 minutes in​ May, how much will the total bill​ be? (Round any intermediate calculations to the nearest cent and your final answer to the nearest​ dollar.)

Answers

Answer:

Total cost= $3,989.65

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Minutes Total Bill

January 470 $4,500

February 200 $2,695

March 180 $2,650

April 320 $2,830

First, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost and fixed costs:

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (4,500 - 2,650) / (470 - 180)

Variable cost per unit= $6.37931

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= 4,500 - (6.37931*470)

Fixed costs= $1,501.72

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Fixed costs= 2,650 - (6.37931*180)

Fixed costs= $1,501.72

If the company uses 390 minutes in​ May:

Total cost= 1,501.72 + 6.37931*390

Total cost= $3,989.65

4. The amount that Federal will report for the bonds among its liabilities in the December 31, 2021, balance sheet is $740,615,924

Explanation:

1. Discount on bonds payable = $800 million - $739,814,813 = $60,185,187

2. Cash paid = Face value × stated interest × interest time period

= $800,000,000 × 11% × 0.5

= $44,000,000

Interest expense = price of bonds × market interest rate × interest time period

= $739,814,813 × 12% × 0.5

= $44,388,889

Discount on bonds payable = $44,388,889 - $44,000,000 = $388,889

3. Cash paid = Face value × stated interest × interest time period

= $800,000,000 × 11% × 0.5

= $44,000,000

Interest expense = price of bonds × market interest rate × interest time period

= ($739,814,813 + $388,889) × 12% × 0.5

= $ 44,412,222

Discount on bonds payable = $44,412,222 - $44,000,000 = $412,222

4.  Long term liabilities = Bonds payable + Discount on bonds payable June 30 + Discount on bonds payable December 31

=  $739,814,813 + $388,889 + $412,222

= $740,615,924

The Sunland Acres Inn is trying to determine its break-even point during its off-peak season. The inn has 50 rooms that it rents at $80 a night. Operating costs are as follows:

Salaries $5,400 per month
Utilities $1,200 per month
Depreciation $1,100 per month
Maintenance $2,140 per month
Maid service $19 per room
Other costs $37 per room

Required:
a. Determine the inn's break-even point in number of rented rooms per month.
b. Determine the inn's break-even point in dollars.

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The inn has 50 rooms that it rents at $80 a night.

Operating costs are as follows:

Salaries $5,400 per month

Utilities $1,200 per month

Depreciation $1,100 per month

Maintenance $2,140 per month

Maid service $19 per room

Other costs $37 per room

We won't take into account the depreciation expense because it is not a cash disbursement.

To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Fixed costs= 5,400 + 1,200 + 2,140= $8,740

Variable cost= 19 + 37= $56

Break-even point in units= 8,740 / (80 - 56)

Break-even point in units= 364 rented rooms

To calculate the break-even point in dollars, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 8,740 / (24/80)

Break-even point (dollars)= $29,133

If the price of chocolate-covered peanuts decreases from $1.15 to $0.90, the quantity demanded does not change, and other things are unchanged, the absolute value of the price elasticity of demand, using the midpoint method, is:

Answers

Answer:

price-elasticity = 0

Explanation:

The formula for mid-point elasticity will be as follows:

[tex]\frac{q_1-q_2}{\frac{q_1+q_2}{2}} \div\frac{p_1-p_2}{\frac{p_1+p_2}{2}}[/tex]

Now, as quantity did not change we get:

q1 = q2

thus q1 + q2 = 2q1

and q1 - q2 = 0

[tex]\frac{0}{\frac{2q_1}{2}} \div\frac{1.15-0.90}{\frac{1.15+0.90}{2}}[/tex]

As we are getting a zero the end result will be zero which makes complete sense as there was no change in quantity the demand is completely inelastic.

Answers

Answer:

Cost Advantage of different locations:

b. $20,000

Phoenix certainly had a cost advantage over Atlanta and based on this factor, it should be chosen for the new plant instead of any other city.

Explanation:

a) Total Costs of different locations:

                        Atlanta       Phoenix

Fixed Cost      $80,000     $140,000

Variable cost  400,000      320,000

Total Costs  $480,000    $460,000

b) Variable costs

                                   Atlanta       Phoenix

Annual Demand        20,000        20,000

Variable cost/unit        $20              $16

Total variable cost  $400,000  $320,000

c) Cost Advantage is the competitive edge which location (or company) can have over another through reduced production or marketing costs or both so that it can offer cheaper prices or use excess profits to bolster promotion or distribution.   In this case, the comparison is on the total cost, which is made of variable and fixed costs.

g The model of aggregate demand and aggregate supply explains the relationship between a. the price and quantity of a particular good. b. unemployment and output. c. wages and employment. d. real GDP and the price level.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the option D: real GDP and the price level.

Explanation:

To begin with, the "model of aggregate demand and aggregate supply" is the name given to an economy model created by John Keynes many years ago and whose main purpose is to show in a graphic the existing relationship established by Keynes between the price level and the production level. Therefore that, as it is known, the GDP comprehends the production level in this model and it is used in order to try to predict the possible effects that some external factors may have in both the real GDP and the price level.

Answer:

The correct answer is (A)

Explanation:

The model of aggregate demand and aggregate supply explains the relationship between the price of a good and the quantity of same good.

What do we mean by quantity? Quantity here could be quantity demanded or quantity supplied.

The model of Aggregate Demand explains how price of a good affects the general or aggregate demand for that goods and how demand in turn affects price. The law of demand states that, all other things being equal, the higher the price of a good, the lower the quantity demanded of that good and vice versa.

The model of Aggregate Supply explains how the price of a good affects the quantity supplied and the law of supply states that if there's an increase in the price of a good, producers will be encouraged to supply more and vice versa; ceteris paribus!

For the other options, there are macro theories or models that explain them.

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%

The present worth of project A is -$143,252.17.D. The present worth of project B is -$109,842.22.

Answers

Answer:

C. The present worth of project A is -$143,252.17

Explanation:

Present worth can be calculated using a financial calculator

For method A ,

Cash flow in year 0 = $80,000

Cash flow in year 1 and 2 = $30,000

Cash flow in year 3 = $30,000 - $15,000 = $15,000

I = 10%

Present worth= $ 143,335.84

For method B,

Cash flow in year 0 = $120,000

Cash flow in year 1 and 2 = $8, 000

Cash flow in year 3 = $8,000 - $40,000 = $-32,000

I = 10%

Present worth = $130,157.78

Method b would is chosen because it worth less.

To find the present worth using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

g A stock will issue a dividend of $20 one year from today. Dividends will shrink by 3% per year for the next two years after that, and then remain constant forever. Find the current price of one share of this stock, given an effective annual rate of 6%.

Answers

Answer:

Current price = $341.943

Explanation:

The Dividend Valuation Model is a technique used to value the worth of an asset. According to this model, the worth of an asset is the sum of the present values of its future cash flows discounted at the required rate of return.

PV dividend in year 1 = 20 × 1.03^(-1)= 19.41747573

PV of dividend in year 2 = 97%× 20 × 1,03^(-2)= 18.28636064

PV of dividend in year 3 = 97%× 97%×  20× 1.03^(-3) = 17.22113575

PV of dividend from year 4  and beyond

This will be done in two steps

PV (in year 3 terms

(97%× 97%×  20× 1.03^(-3))/0.06 =313.6333333

PV in year o terms

PV = A/r

A= 313.63, r = 6%

313.63× 1.03^(-3)= 287.0189291

Price of stock = 19.41 +18.28 +  17.221 +  17.221= 341.943

You’ve borrowed $23,072 on margin to buy shares in Ixnay, which is now selling at $41.2 per share. You invest 1,120 shares. Your account starts at the initial margin requirement of 50%. The maintenance margin is 35%. Two days later, the stock price changes to $41 per share.
a) Will you receive a margin call?b) How low can the price of Disney shares fall before you receive a margin call?

Answers

Answer:

(a) Since the percentage margin is more than maintenance margin, there would be no call

(b) A margin call would be received when the price is $15.26

Explanation:

(a) Total investment = $23,072 × [tex]\frac{100}{50}[/tex] = $46,144

Total shares = Total investment ÷ share price

= $46,144 ÷ $41.2 = 1,120

Value of share in market = new price × number of shares

= $41 × 1,120

= $45,920

Value of equity = Value of share in the market - borrowed cash

= $45,920 - $23,072

= $22,848

Percentage margin = Value of equity ÷ Value of shares

= ($22,848 ÷ $45,920) × 100%

= 49.76%

(b) Total number of shares = 1,120

Assumed value of shares = $1,120X

Borrowed fund = $23,072

Value of equity = $1,120X - $23,072

Margin = Value of equity ÷ Value of shares

0.35 = ($1,120X - $23,072) ÷ $1,120X

392X = $1,120X - $23,072

1512X = $23,072

X = $15.26

The 6.3 percent, semi-annual coupon bonds of PE Engineers mature in 13 years and have a price quote of 99.2. These bonds have a current yield of ________ percent, a yield to maturity of ________ percent, and an effective annual yield of ________ percent.

Answers

Answer:

Current yield is 6.35%

YTM is 6.40%

Effective annual yield is 6.50%

Explanation:

Current yield =coupon amount/price=6.3%*$1000/$1000*99.2%=6.35%

Yield to maturity can be computed using excel rate formula as below:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is the number of coupon payments of the bond which is 13*2

pmt is the annual coupon=6.3%*$1000=$63/2=$31.5

pv is the current price=99.2%*$1000=$992

fv is the face value of $1000

=rate(13*2,31.5,-992,1000)=3.20%

Semiannual yield =3.20%

annual yield=3.20%*2=6.40%

effective annual yield=(1+YTM/2)^2-1

effective annual yield=(1+6.40%/2)^2-1=6.50%

Torino Company has 1,300 shares of $50 par value, 6.0% cumulative and nonparticipating preferred stock and 13,000 shares of $10 par value common stock outstanding. The company paid total cash dividends of $3,500 in its first year of operation. The cash dividend that must be paid to preferred stockholders in the second year before any dividend is paid to common stockholders is:

Answers

Answer:

The answer is $4,300

Explanation:

Solution

We recall that:

Torino company has 1,200 shares of = $50 per value

The cumulative and nonparticipating preferred stock of = 6.0%

They also have 13,00 shares

Common stock outstanding = $10 per value

Total dividends = $3,500

Now,

The first year amount of dividend that was paid in the first year of working is  stated as follows:

6% * 1300 * 50 = $3900

The paid dividend = $3,500

The amount amount payable during the second year to the common stakeholders is

=$3900 + 400 = $4,300

Note: preferred shares are cumulative, for this the amount paid to the stakeholders was $4,300

Answers

Answer:

The weight of equity in to be use to calculate the firm's WACC is 0.48 or 48%

Explanation:

The weight of equity to be used in firm's WACC computation is market value of equity divided by the sum of market value of equity ,preferred stock and bonds.

Market value of equity=44,000*$32                   =$1,408,000.00  

Market value of preferred stock=7,500*$92      =$690,000

Market value of bonds=$825,000*$989/$1000=$815,925.00  

Sum of market values                                           =$ 2,913,925.00  

Weight of equity=market value of equity/ Sum of market values=$1,408,000.00/$2,913,925.00= 0.48 =48%

Answers

Answer: Prohibited.

Explanation:

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) frowns upon the action described above.

FINRA strongly prohibits the personal borrowing of money by the representative to a customer or vice versa. The only time this prohibition can be waved is if the parties are married or family.

Seeing as there was no mention of the parties being family, this action is prohibited.

Write a linear cost function equation for each of the following conditions. Use y for estimated costs and X for activity of the cost driver.

a. Direct manufacturing labor is $10 per hour.

b. Direct materials cost $15.60 per cubic yard.

c. Utilities have a minimum charge of $5,000, plus a charge of $0.30 per kilowatt-hour.

d. Machine operating costs include $300,000 of machine depreciation per year, plus $100 of utility costs for each day the machinery is in operation.

Answers

Answer:

a)

y = $10x

b)

y = $15.6x

c)

y = $5000 + $0.3x

d)

y = $300000 + $100x

Explanation:

y for estimated costs and X for activity of the cost driver. Linear cost function is given as:

y = a + bx.

Where y is the cost being predicted, x is the cost driver, a is the fixed cost (intercept) and b is the variable cost per unit (slope)

a) Since Direct manufacturing labor is $10 per hour,  variable cost (b) =  Direct manufacturing labor = $10

Therefore:

y = $10x

b) variable cost (b) =  Direct materials cost = $15.60 per cubic yard.

Therefore:

y = $15.6x

c) Fixed cost (a) = utilities = $5000 and  variable cost (b) =  charges = $0.3 per kilowatt-hour. Therefore:

y = $5000 + $0.3x

d) Fixed cost (a) = Machine operating costs = $300000 and  variable cost (b) =  utility costs = $100 per day. Therefore:

y = $300000 + $100x

The following data apply to Elizabeth's Electrical Equipment: Value of operations $20,000 Short-term investments $1,000 Debt $6,000 Number of shares 300 The company plans on distributing $1,000 by repurchasing stock. What will the intrinsic per share stock price be immediately after the repurchase? Notes: With some combinations of variables, the residual policy may result in zero dividends and a zero payout ratio. These outcomes are noted in the topic [TOP] field if applicable.

Answers

Answer:

$50

Explanation:

Elizabeth's Electrical Equipment

Total Assets will be :

Value of operations of 20,000+ Short term investments of 1000

=$21,000

Debt = $6000

Hence:

Equity will be :

Assets - Debt

= $21,000-$6,000

Which will give us = $15,000

Number of shares which are outstanding

= 300

$15,000/300

=$50

Therefore the Intrinsic value per share will be $50 immediately after the repurchase has occured.

On January 2, 2015, Vaughn Corporation issued $1,650,000 of 10% bonds at 96 due December 31, 2024. Interest on the bonds is payable annually each December 31. The discount on the bonds is also being amortized on a straight-line basis over the 10 years. (Straight-line is not materially different in effect from the preferable "interest method".) The bonds are callable at 102 (i.e., at 102% of face amount), and on January 2, 2017, Vaughn called $1,140,000 face amount of the bonds and redeemed them. Ignoring income taxes.

Required:
Compute the amount of loss, if any, to be recognized by Vaughn as a result of retiring the $1,140,000 of bonds in 2017

Answers

Answer:

$59,280

Explanation:

This can be calculated as follows:

Bond issue price = $1,650,000 * 0.96 = $1,584,000

Discount on bonds payable = $1,650,000 - $1,584,000 = $66,000

Annual amortization of discount on bonds payable = $66,000 / 10 = 6,600

Bond carrying value on January 2, 2017 = Bond issue price + (Annual discount on bonds payable * Number of years) = $1,584,000 + ($6,600 * 2) =  $1,597,200  

Value of $1,140,000 of bonds = ($1,597,200 / $1,650,000) * $1,140,000 = $1,103,520

Loss on recognized on redemption = ($1,140,000 * 102%) - $1,103,520 = $59,280
