Answer:
$2,949.91.
Explanation:
The size of the quarterly installment can be determined by finding the (Payment) PMT amount using tie value of money principles.
Here I used a financial calculator to set my values and calculate PMT as :
PV = $0
N = 2 x 4 = 8
P/yr = 4
I = 11 %
FV = $26,000
PMT = ?
Therefore the (Payment) PMT is $2,949.91. The size of each (equal) quarterly installment should be $2,949.91.
You are the manager of a firm that manufactures front and rear windshields for the automobile industry. Due to economies of scale in the industry, entry by new firms is not profitable. Toyota has asked your company and your only rival to simultaneously submit a price quote for supplying 100,000 front and rear windshields for its newest version of the Highlander. If both you and your rival submit a low price, each firm supplies 50,000 front and rear windshields and earns a zero profit. If one firm quotes a low price and the other a high price, the low-price firm supplies 100,000 front and rear windshields and earns a profit of $11 million and the high-price firm supplies no windshields and loses $2 million. If both firms quote a high price, each firm supplies 50,000 front and rear windshields and earns a $6 million profit. Determine your optimal pricing strategy if you and your rival believe that the new Highlander is a "special edition" that will be sold only for one year. Would your answer differ if you and your rival were required to resubmit price quotes year after year and if, in any given year, there was a 60 percent chance that Toyota would discontinue the Highlander? Explain.
Answer:
a. The optimal pricing strategy will be one-shot Nash equilibrium in which “You” charge low price, “Your Rival” charge low price and then the payoff is ($0, $0)
b. Yes, the anwer will differ becuase it is not possible to sustain the collusive outcome as a Nash equilibrium because [tex]\pi ^{Cheat}[/tex] > [tex]\pi ^{Cooperate}[/tex].
Explanation:
a. Determine your optimal pricing strategy if you and your rival believe that the new Highlander is a "special edition" that will be sold only for one year.
Note: See the attached excel file for the Representation of one shot normal for of the game played between "You" and "Your Rival" together with the payoffs.
From the attached excel file, the dominant strategy is for “You” and “Your Rival” to charge “Low Price” each. If the dominant strategy is played by “You” and “Your Rival”, the optimal pricing strategy will be one-shot Nash equilibrium in which “You” charge low price, “Your Rival” charge low price and then the payoff is ($0, $0).
b. Would your answer differ if you and your rival were required to resubmit price quotes year after year and if, in any given year, there was a 60 percent chance that Toyota would discontinue the Highlander? Explain.
When we have a year-after-year competition between “You” and “Your Rival” but with a 60 percent chance that Toyota would discontinue the Highlander, the payoffs of the firm that continue to comply with the collusive strategy of charging “High Price” by each firm under the normal trigger strategy whereby “You” and “Your Rival” agree to charge high price as long as there is no past deviation by any of the firm, otherwise charge a low price is as follows:
[tex]\pi ^{Cooperate}[/tex] = $6 + $6(100% - 60%) + $6(100% - 60%)^2 + 6(100% - 60%)^2 …….
[tex]\pi ^{Cooperate}[/tex] = $6 / 6% = $10
Therefore, what the firm that cheats earn today is $11 million and it earns $0 forever. The implication of this is that [tex]\pi ^{Cheat}[/tex] = $11
Therefore, the anwer will differ becuase it is not possible to sustain the collusive outcome as a Nash equilibrium because [tex]\pi ^{Cheat}[/tex] > [tex]\pi ^{Cooperate}[/tex].
A portfolio is composed of two stocks, A and B. Stock A has a standard deviation of return of 23%, while stock B has a standard deviation of return of 29%. Stock A comprises 70% of the portfolio, while stock B comprises 30% of the portfolio. If the variance of return on the portfolio is 0.042, the correlation coefficient between the returns on A and B is _________. Multiple Choice 0.088 0.304 0.213 0.091
Answer:
0.304
Explanation:
The calculation has been done step by step in order to understand the final result. Note that (p) in the below working refers to the correlation coefficient between Stock A and B.
0.042 = (0.70^2)(0.23^2) + (0.30^2)(0.29^2) + 2(0.70)(0.30)(0.23)(0.29)p
0.042 = 0.0259 + 0.0076 + 0.028p
0.042 = 0.0335 + 0.028p
0.042 - 0.0335 = 0.028p
0.0085 = 0.028p
p = 0.0085 / 0.028
p = 0.304

Direct material budget. Inglenook Co. produces wine. The company expects to produce 2,500,000 two-liter bottles of Chablis in 2015. Inglenook purchases empty glass bottles from an outside vendor. Its target ending inventory of such bottles is 80,000; its beginning inventory is 50,000. For simplicity, ignore breakage. Compute the number of bottles to be purchased in 2015.
Answer:
2,530,000 bottles
Explanation:
Regarding the above information, we will compute the number of bottles to be purchased in 2015 as seen below
Purchase in units = Usage + Desired ending material inventory units - Beginning inventory units
Purchase in units = 2,500,000 + 80,000 - 50,000
Purchase in units = 2,530,000
Therefore, the number of bottles to be purchases in 2015 is 2,530,000
At the beginning of the tax year, Barnaby's basis in the BBB Partnership was $50,000, including his $5,000 share of partnership debt. At the end of the tax year, his share of debt was $8,000. His share of the partnership's income for the year was $20,000, and he received cash distributions totaling $12,000. In addition, his share of the partnership's nontaxable income was $1,000.
Required:
Determine Barnaby's basis at the end of the tax year.
Answer:
$62,000
Explanation:
Calculation to Determine Barnaby's basis at the end of the tax year
Using this formula
Ending tax year Barnaby's basis in the partnership=[BBB Partnership basis+( Share of debt-Share of partnership debt)+ Share of Partnership's income +Share of partnership's nontaxable income-Cash distributions]
Let plug in the formula
Ending tax year Barnaby's basis in the partnership =$50,000 + ($8,000-$5,000) + $20,000 + $1,000 - $12,000
Ending tax year Barnaby's basis in the partnership =$50,000 + $3,000 + $20,000 + $1,000 - $12,000
Ending tax year Barnaby's basis in the partnership = =$62,000
Therefore Barnaby's basis at the end of the tax year will be $62,000
An investor has two bonds in her portfolio, Bond C and Bond Z. Each bond matures in 4 years, has a face value of $1,000, and has a yield to maturity of 8.9%. Bond C pays a 10% annual coupon, while Bond Z is a zero coupon bond. Assuming that the yield to maturity of each bond remains at 8.9% over the next 4 years, calculate the price of the bonds at each of the following years to maturity.
Years to Maturity Price of Bond C Price of Bond Z
4 $ $
3 $ $
2 $ $
1 $ $
0 $ $
Answer:
Years to maturity Price of Bond C Price of Bond Z
4 $1,084.42 $711.03
3 $1,065.93 $774.31
2 $1,045.80 $843.23
1 $1,023.88 $918.27
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel for the calculations of the prices of Bond C and Bond Z.
The price of each bond of the bond can be calculated using the following excel function:
Bond price = -PV(rate, NPER, PMT, FV) ........... (1)
Where;
rate = Yield to maturity of each of the bonds
NPER = Years to maturity
PMT = Payment = Coupon rate * Face value
FV = Face value
Substituting all the relevant values into equation (1) for each of the Years to Maturity and inputting them into relevant cells in the attached excel sheet, we have:
Years to maturity Price of Bond C Price of Bond Z
4 $1,084.42 $711.03
3 $1,065.93 $774.31
2 $1,045.80 $843.23
1 $1,023.88 $918.27
The payoff matrix supplied shows outcomes of various strategies that two firms might follow in response to action on the part of the other company. This payoff matrix describes actions in developing vaccines for not-too-rare but also not-too-common diseases. Each element shows the payoffs to a set of strategies as the payoff to the domestic firm, then a comma, then the payoff to the foreign firm.
Foreign firm
Enter Not Enter
Domestic firm Enter -3,-3 183,0
Not Enter 0,183 0,0
Required:
What is the minimum subsidy the US must offer the domestic firm to ensure that it will choose to produce the vaccine?
Answer:
Subsidy per unit must be equal to 3.
Explanation:
The payoff matrix shows that the Domestic firm can earn -3 or 183 from entering into the market. While, it will get only 0 from not entering. So it will be beneficial for it to enter provided the government can bear the negative payoff it gets from entering as the foreign firm also enters.
Thus, if the government can subsidise the domestic firm's negative payoff of $3 from entering such that its payoff becomes, 0 or 186 from entering and 0 from not entering. Like this the domestic firm will be more likely to enter and produce the vaccine.
Thus, the amount of the subsidy must be $3.
WiseGuy Capital mutual fund has $200 million in assets and 10 million shares at the start of the year and with $250 million in assets and 11 million shares at the end of the year. During the year investors have received income distributions of $2 per share and capital gain distributions of $.25 per share. Assuming that the fund carries no debt, does not charge any load, and the total expense ratio is 2%, what is the rate of return on the fund
Answer:
The return rate on the fund is "23.75%".
Explanation:
The given values are:
In the starting of the year,
Mutual fund assets,
= $200
Share,
= 10 million
In the end of the year,
Income distribution,
= $2 per share
Capital gain distribution,
= $.25 per share
Total expense ration,
= 2%
Now,
The initial NAV will be:
= [tex]\frac{200mn}{10mn}[/tex]
= [tex]20[/tex]$
The final NAV will be:
= [tex]250-\frac{250\times 0.01}{11}[/tex]
= [tex]22.5[/tex]
hence,
The return will be:
= [tex]\frac{Change \ in \ NAV+Div+Capital \ gain \ distribution}{Initial \ NAV}[/tex]
On substituting the values, we get
= [tex]\frac{22.5-20+2+0.25}{20}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{4.75}{20}[/tex]
= [tex]0.2375[/tex]
i.e.,
= [tex]23.75[/tex]%
The Technology department at Watkins Transit has a budgeted annual cost of $65,000. The department has a capacity to handle 250 work stations per year. Currently, purchasing, shipping, and administrative departments have 20, 45, and 135 work stations, respectively. If practical capacity is used to allocate costs, how much cost is allocated to shipping
Answer: $14,625
Explanation:
Based on the information given, if practical capacity is used to allocate cost, the cost that is allocated to shipping will be:
= Budgeted annual cost/200 × Number of shipping work stations
= 65000/200 × 45
= $14,625
Cost Allocation is the process of allocating an item of cost to an item of cost, which is directly followed. The cost that is allocated to shipping will be $14,625.
What is called costs allocation?
Cost Allocation is the process of identifying, accumulating, and allocating costs to expense items such as departments, products, systems, and many others.
Based on the information given, if practical capacity is used to allocate cost, the cost that is allocated to shipping will be:
[tex]\rm\, Cost \;that \;is \; allocated \; to \;shipping = \rm\, \frac{ \;Budgeted \; Annual \;Cost}{200} \times \;Number \;of \; shipping \;work \;stations\\\\= \dfrac{65000}{200} \times 45\\\\= \$14,625[/tex]
Hence, the cost that is allocated to shipping is $14,625.

is the rate at which npv is zero
Explanation:
Internal rate of return is an example of capital budgeting method
Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after-tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested.
Projects with the IRR greater than the discount rate should be accepted. It means that it is profitable.
Projects with more than one negative cash flow are unsuitable for calculating with IRR. This is because it can lead to multiple IRR, Thus, it not suitable for analysing all investment scenarios.
The net present value is the most preferred capital budgeting method
Other capital budgeting methods includes
1. profitability index = 1 + (NPV / Initial investment)
2. Accounting rate of return = Average net income / Average book value
3. Payback calculates the amount of time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from it cumulative cash flows
4. Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

Descendants Corporation is a growth firm that recently had its IPO. It is not currently paying dividends and its first dividend is expected in year 5. After this, it is expected to offer dividends with growth rates of 15% for two years. After this time, it is expected to reach stable growth with a dividend growth rate of 4% forever. If the dividend discount model is used to value the stock, in what year does the horizon value from stable growth belong
Answer:
year 7
Explanation:
The dividend discount model (DDM) is used to determine the value of stock by discounting the dividend to derive the present value of the stock.
Types of DDM
1.two stage : one stage of rapid growth and a stage of constant growth
3. three stage : one stage of super normal growth, followed by a stage of normal growth and then constant growth
For this company
first 5 years = o dividends
next 2 years = 15%
7th year - constant growth
Shortcomings of the DDM
It doesn't take a control perspective
It is unsuitable for firms that don't pay dividends
Bridgeport Company is constructing a building. Construction began on February 1 and was completed on December 31. Expenditures were $1,836,000 on March 1, $1,236,000 on June 1, and $3,038,370 on December 31. Bridgeport Company borrowed $1,112,250 on March 1 on a 5-year, 12% note to help finance construction of the building. In addition, the company had outstanding all year a 9%, 5-year, $2,342,100 note payable and an 10%, 4-year, $3,467,800 note payable. Compute the weighted-average interest rate used for interest capitalization purposes.
Answer:
9.6%
Explanation:
According to the problem, calculation are as follows,
Company borrowed on March 1 = $1,112,250
First we calculate total expenditures in constructing a building.
Total Expense = ($1,836,000 × 10÷12)+ ($1,236,000 × 7÷12)+ ($3,038,370 × 0÷12)
= $1,530,000 + $721,000 + 0
= $2,251,000
So, Difference in both amount = $2,251,000 - $1,112,250 = $1,138,750
We can calculate the weighted average interest rate by using following formula,
Weighted average interest rate = Interest ÷ outstanding principal
Where, Outstanding principal = $2,342,100 + $3,467,800 = $5,809,900
Interest = $2,342,100 × 9% + $3,467,800 × 10%
= $210,789 + $346,780 = $557,569
So, by putting the value in formula, we get,
Weighted average interest rate = $557,569 ÷ $5,809,900
= 0.096 or 9.6%
Unintentionally, David built in his backyard a garage that encroached two feet across the property line onto property owned by his neighbor, Harold. When the mistake was recognized immediately thereafter, David and Harold agreed in writing that David did not need to move the garage. The statutory period for the running of adverse possession in the state where the property is located is 15 years. Five years after the garage was completed, David sold his property to Nancy. Twenty years after Nancy purchased the property from David, Nancy claimed she had acquired the two feet of property through application of the doctrine of adverse possession. In a legal dispute between Nancy and Harold over ownership to the two feet Nancy now claims, which statement is most accurate:
Answer:
Nancy will prevail as she has used the property, openly as hers for over 15 years.
Explanation:
Since in the question it is given that nancy would prevail as she is able to used the property and for her it is open for above 15 years
Also the conditions related to the adverse possession would be fulfilled
So as per given situation, the above represent the answer
the same would be relevant
Going by the principle of adverse possession, the fact that Nancy has used the land beyond the statutory period of 15 years means that "Nancy will prevail as she has used the property, openly as hers for over 15 years."
The principle of adverse possession affirms that the possession of somebody else's land for an extended period of time might give the occupant the legal right of claiming ownership of the land. Nancy has up he land for 20 years since she purchased it from David, which is beyond the statutory period.Hence, Nancy would prevail since going by the principle of adverse possession.

Hollister expects the mine will have a salvage value of $175,000 once all the silver has been mined. Best estimates are that the mine contains 250,000 tons of ore.
a. Prepare the entry to record the purchase of the silver mine.
b. Prepare the December 31 year-end adjusting entry to record depletion is 60,000 tons of ore are mined and all the ore is sold.
c. Prepare the December 31 year-end adjusting entry to record depletion is 60,000 tons of ore are mined but only 15,000 tons of the ore are sold.
Answer:
Part a
Debit : Silver Mine $1,650,000
Credit : Cash $1,650,000
Part b
Debit : Depletion expense $354,000
Credit : Accumulated depletion $354,000
Part c
Debit : Depletion expense $354,000
Credit : Accumulated depletion $354,000
Explanation:
Step 1 : Cost of the Silver Mine
Purchase Price $1,600,000
Development Costs $50,000
Total Cost $1,650,000
Step 2 : Depletion rate
Depletion rate = (Cost - Salvage value) ÷ Estimate Usage
= $5.90
Step 3 : Depletion expense
Note : Depletion expense depends on units mined only instead of units sold.
Depletion expense = Depletion rate x Units mined
if 60,000 tons of ore are mined and sold :
Depletion expense = $354,000
if 60,000 tons of ore are mined but only 15,000 tons of the ore are sold :
Depletion expense = $354,000

What is the meaning of the Business Cycle?Business cycles are made up of coordinated cyclical upswings and downswings in output, employment, income, and sales, which are four broad indices of economic activity. In the business cycle, expansions and contractions alternate (recessions).
Economic activity goes through periods of boom and then contraction during business cycles. Two-quarters of negative GDP growth is occasionally used as the formal definition of a recession. The four stages of an economic cycle—also known as a business cycle—are expansion, peak, contraction, and trough.
The repeated economic shifts that occur in a nation over time are called business cycles. It can be recognized by changes in the GDP and other macroeconomic indicators. The business cycle has four phases: expansion, peak, contraction, and trough.
Hence, option A is correct.

Von Bora Corporation is expected pay a dividend of $1.40 per share at the end of this year and a $1.50 per share at the end of the second year. You expect Von Bora's stock price to be $25.00 at the end of two years. Von Bora's equity cost of capital is 10%. The price you would be willing to pay today for a share of Von Bora stock, if you plan to hold the stock for two years is closest to:
Answer:
Price of share today = $23.17
Explanation:
The value of a stock using the dividend valuation model, is the present value of the expected cash inflows discounted at the required rate of return. The required rate of return is the cost of equity.
The cost of equity is 10% in this scenario
The price of the share will be determined as follows:
$
Present value of Dividend in yr 1 = 1.40× 1.1^(-1)= 1.27
Present value of Dividend in yr 2 = 1.50 × 1.1^(-2)=1.24
Present value of share in yr 2 = 25× 1.1^(-2) = 20.66
Present value of total cash inflow 23.17
Price of share today = $23.17
Stocks are considered as a financial instruments that represents a firm's ownership stake. Stocks are tool for investors to grow their money and surpass inflation over time.
The computation of the capital gain for the first year is shown below;
Current value = Future dividend and value × Present value of discounting factor(rate%, time period)
= $1.4 ÷ 1.1 + $1.5 ÷ 1.1^2 + $25 ÷ 1.1^2
= $23.15
Hence, the capital gain for the first year is $23.15

Mona is opening a new business selling fake fur coats. She organizes the company as a limited liability company called Fake-It, LLC and borrows $100,000 from a local bank in Fake-It's name. She also signs a personal guarantee at the bank promising to pay the debt of Fake-It. A friend of hers, Tanner, a second-year law student, advises her not to worry about the personal guarantee, because under the law of limited liability companies, it would be illegal for anyone to attempt to hold her liable for debts of the company. Is Tanner right?
Answer:
Yes but see explanation.
Explanation:
In lay man terms, the LLC is standing as a legal entity in itself. It can sue and be sued; as if it were a person. Tanner is right but Mona is a 'member' of the company (the owner or starter is called or seen as 'a member') and part of the liabilities of the company lie on her!
The legal document that determines who to hold liable for debts of the company is the Article of Organization. This document describes the rights, the powers, the responsibilities and the liabilities of each member of the limited liability company. So, if in this document, Mona bears a bulk of the financial liability of the company, then if the company is found wanting - on the basis of debt - and a court case comes up; Mona will be one of the members on the 'hot seat'.
Her personal bank account or financial assets might be protected in a company debt case but she'll still have to appear in court and be questioned accordingly. In lay man language, it is she - a human - who opened the business, so if there's debt, the humans involved (members) will be called upon.
Holder Manufacturing had $125,000 of net income in 2015 when the selling price per unit was $100, the variable costs per unit were $70, and the fixed costs were $475,000. Management expects per unit data and total fixed costs to remain the same in 2016. The president of Holder Manufacturing is under pressure from stockholders to increase net income by $60,000 in 2016.
Instructions
A) Compute the number of units sold in 2015.
B) Compute the number of units that would have to be sold in 2016 to reach the stockholders' desired profit level.
C) Assume that Holder Manufacturing sells the same number of units in 2016 as it did in 2015. What would the selling price have to be in order to reach the stockholders' desired profit level.
Answer:
Holder Manufacturing
A. The number of units sold in 2015 is:
= 20,000 units
B. The number of units that would have to be sold in 2016 to reach the stockholders' desired profit level is:
= 22,000 units
C. The selling price to reach the stockholders' desired profit level, assuming that Holder Manufacturing sells the same number of units in 2016 as it did in 2015 is:
= $103 per unit.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Net income in 2015 = $125,000
Selling price per unit = $100
Variable costs per unit = $70
Contribution per unit = $30
Fixed costs = $475,000
Number of units sold in 2015:
Contribution margin = Net income + Fixed costs
= $125,000 + $475,000 = $600,000
Number of units sold = $600,000/$30 = 20,000 units
For 2016:
Contribution margin = $660,000 ($600,000 + $60,000)
Number of units to be sold = 22,000
If units sold in 2016 = 20,000, selling price would be:
Contribution would be = $33 ($660,000/20,000)
Selling price = Variable cost + Contribution margin per unit
= $70 + $33 = $103

Entity B bought equipment for $240,000 on January 1, 2021. It estimated the useful life to be 3 years with no salvage value, and the straight-line method of depreciation was used. On January 1, 2022, Entity B decides that it will use the equipment for a total of 5 years. Compute the revised depreciation expense for 2022 and make the entry to record depreciation expense. Show work.
Answer:
Part 1
Revised depreciation expense = $32,000
Part 2
The entry to record depreciation expense :
Debit : Depreciation Expense $32,000
Credit : Accumulated Depreciation $32,000
Explanation:

Juan works for you in the Customer Service Department. He hates answering incoming customer calls and prefers to respond to customer emails. Juan is scheduled to answer the phones today and insists that you let him switch with Shawna, who is assigned to e-mail duty. Although you have refused to allow Juan to switch schedules in the past, you agree to do so today. What is your style for handling this conflict
Answer:
Accommodating Style
Explanation:
It is correct to say that the style of accommodation was chosen to deal with the conflict exposed in the question above. This style understands that a party agrees to meet a person's needs for the sake of the relationship.
Accommodation in conflict resolution can be effective when the final result will not be as impacted by what you want to accept, as in the case of the question, since the change in the roles of Juan and Shawna will not affect the final result.
