Assume that Kish Inc. hired you as a consultant to help estimate its cost of capital. You have obtained the following data: D0 = $0.90; P0 = $27.50; and g = 7.00% (constant). Based on the DCF approach, what is the cost of equity from retained earnings?

Answers

Answer:

The cost of equity from retained earnings based on the DCF approach is 10.50%

Explanation:

In order to calculate the cost of equity from retained earnings based on the DCF approach we would have to calculate the following formula:

Cost of Equity = (D1/P0) + growth rate

Cost of Equity =[($0.9 x 1.07)/$27.50] + 0.07

Cost of Equity = 0.1050

Cost of Equity =10.50%

Therefore, The cost of equity from retained earnings based on the DCF approach is 10.50%

Suppose a relative has promised to give you $1,000 as a wedding gift the day you get engaged. Assuming a constant interest rate of 7%, consider the present and future values of this gift, depending on when you become engaged.

Complete the first row of the table by determining the value of the gift in one and two years if you become engaged today.

Present Value Value in One Year Value in Two Years
Date Received (Dollars) (Dollars) (Dollars)
Today 1,000.00 ? ?
In 1 year ? 1,000.00
In 2 years ? 1,000.00

Complete the first column of the table by computing the present value of the gift if you get engaged in one year or two years.

The present value of the gift is __________ if you get engaged in two years than it is if you get engaged in one year.

Answers

Answer:

a.

Future Value in One Year = $1,070.00

Future Value in Two Years = $1,144.90  

b.

Present Value of amount received in 1 year = $934.58  

Present Value of amount received in 2 years = $873.44

The present value of the gift is less/lower if you get engaged in two years than it is if you get engaged in one year.

Explanation:

These can be done as follows:

                            Present Value  Value in One Year   Value in Two Years

Date Received         (Dollars)             (Dollars)                      (Dollars)

Today                      1,000.00              1,070.00                       1,144.90

In 1 year                      934.58              1,000.00

In 2 years                   873.44                                                   1,000.00

a. Complete the first row of the table by determining the value of the gift in one and two years if you become engaged today.

To do this, we use future value (FV) formula as follows:

Future Value = A * (1 + r)^n ........................................ (1)

Where;

A = Amount received to day = $1,000.00

r = interest rate = 7%, or 0.07

n = number of years

Using equation (1), we therefore have:

Future Value in One Year = 1,000.00 * (1 + 0.07)^1 = $1,070.00

Future Value in Two Years = 1,000.00 * (1 + 0.07)^2 = $1,144.90  

b. Complete the first column of the table by computing the present value of the gift if you get engaged in one year or two years.

To do this, we use present value (PV) formula as follows:

Present Value = A / (1 + r)^n ........................................ (2)

Where;

A = Amount received in specified year = $1,000.00

r = interest rate = 7%, or 0.07

n = number of years

Using equation (2), we therefore have:

Present Value of amount received in 1 year = 1,000.00 / (1 + 0.07)^1 = $934.58  

Present Value of amount received in 2 years = 1,000.00 / (1 + 0.07)^2 = $873.44

Since $873.44 is less/lower than $934.58, we therefore have:

The present value of the gift is less/lower if you get engaged in two years than it is if you get engaged in one year.

The correct statement will be that the present value of the wedding gift is $873.43 if you get engaged in two years, then it is $934.57 if you get engaged in one year when the future value is $1000.

The future value of wedding gifts will be $1070.00 and $1144.9 at the end of first and second year respectively. The computation for the values can be done by applying values to the formula.

Calculation of future value and present value

The present value of the gift can be calculated as using the formula below,

[tex]\rm Present\ Value= \dfrac{Future\ Value}{1+ Fixed\ Interest\ Rate}\\\\\\\\\rm Present\ Value= \dfrac{\$1000}{1.07}\\\\\\\rm Present\ Value= \$ 934.57[/tex]

The present value for one year is 934.57 USD.

Now for two years,

[tex]\rm Present\ Value= \dfrac{\$934.57}{1.07}\\\\\rm Present\ Value= \$873.43[/tex]

Now to calculate the future value when the present value is considered to be as $1000. We will use the formula below,

[tex]\rm Future\ Value\ for\ One\ Year=Present\ Value\ +\ \dfrac{Present\ Value\ x\ Time\ x\ Interest\ Rate}{100}\\\\\\\rm Future\ Value\ for\ One\ Year= 1000\ +\ \dfrac{1000\ \rm x\ 1\ \rm x\ 7}{100}\\\\\\\rm Future\ Value= \$1070[/tex]

For the end of two years, the future value will be,

[tex]\rm Future\ Value= Present\ Value\ (1+\dfrac{Interest}{no.\ of\ Compoundings})^n^t\\\\\\\rm Future\ Value= 1000\ (1+\dfrac{0.07}{1})^1^ x\ ^2\\\\\rm Future\ Value= \$1144.9[/tex]

Hence, the value of the gifts can be ascertained as per the calculations above.

The City Transit Authority (CTA) is trying to decide between railcars manufactured by French Corp and Japan Rail Car. The French Corp cars cost more to buy initially, but they are expected to last for 10 years. The Japan Rail Car cars are cheaper initially, but they will wear out in 6 years. The cash flows related to each of the choices are presented below. If the CTA’s cost of capital is 8 percent, which type of car should the CTA buy? Support your answer.

Answers

Answer: The Japan Rail Car should be purchased

Explanation:

To find the answer we can use the Net Present Cost. By calculating the total net present value of the total costs involved in both projects, the cheaper alternative can then be chosen.

The cash-flows for both projects are constant so an annuity can be used to calculate them.

Please refer to the annuity table attached.

The French Corp Car

It will cost $275,000 originally and then $10,000 every year after that. The cost of capital is 8%. The goal is to find the present value of all the cost. That can be done by,

=  (275,000) + PV of Annuity of $10,000 for 10 year and cost of capital 8% p.a. (look at the table for the intersection of 10 years and 8%)

= 275,000 + 10,000 (6.710)

= 275,000 + 67,100

= $342,100

The Japan Rail Car

It will cost $195,000 originally and then $15,000 every year after that. The cost of capital is 8%. Using the same method,

=  (195,000) + PV of Annuity of $15,000 for 6 year and cost of capital 8% p.a. (look at the table for the intersection of 6 years and 8%)

= 195,000 + 15,000(4.623)

=195,000 + 69,345

= $264,345

The Japan Rail Car costs less in terms of total cost over its period of operation and so should be the one purchased by the CTA.

The computation of the effective annual rate is shown below:-

Effective annual rate = (1 + Annual percentage rate ÷ n)^n -1

For CD 1

= (1 + 0.0195 ÷ 12)^12 - 1

= (1 + 0.001625 )^12 - 1

= (1.001625 )^12 - 1

= 1.97%

For CD 2

= (1 + 0.02 ÷ 2)^2 - 1

Arthur sustained an injury to his back. Arthur claimed the injury was suffered at work and filed a claim for workers' compensation benefits. The employer opposed this claim, saying the injury, if real, was the result of a congenital condition. In accordance with the statute, a hearing was held before the Workers' Compensation Board, which ruled against Arthur. Arthur became disgusted with the hearing officer and the proceedings because Arthur felt that the hearing officer did not like him. Arthur has consulted an attorney seeking to sue for workers' compensation benefits. An appeal is available within the agency, but Arthur wants to go directly to court because he feels that the agency appeal would be useless. Discuss the merits of this strategy.

Answers

Answer: Arthur can't bring a lawsuit to help overturn the ruling of the Worker’s Compensation Board,

Explanation:

From the question, Arthur got a back injury and Arthur claimed that the injury was suffered at work and therefore filed a claim for workers compensation benefits while the employer opposed this claim, by saying that the injury was due to a congenital condition.

A hearing was held before the Workers' Compensation Board, and the board ruled against Arthur. Arthur became disgusted and wants to go directly to the court because as he feels an agency isn't worth it.

The merits of this strategy are that

Arthur can't bring a lawsuit in order to help overturn the findings the Worker’s Compensation Board made, because Arthur failed to exhaust the available administrative remedies he had. Therefore, the lawsuit will not be successful and would therefore not be heard by the courts.

3.5 years

Explanation:

Payback period calculates the amount of the time it takes to recover the amount invested from the cumulative cash flows.

The amount invested is $-90,000

In the first year , $-90,000 + $36,000 = $-54,000 is recovered

In the second year, $-54,000 + $30,000 = $-24,000 is recovered

In the third year, $-24,000 + $18,000 = $-6,000 is recovered

In the fourth year, $-6,000 + $12,000 = $6000 is recovered.

By the fourth year, the total amount invested is recovered as the cash flow turns postive

Pay back period = 3 years + $6000/$12,000 = 3.5 years

Answers

Answer:

1. Times interest earned ratio is 4.72

2. Debt to equity ratio is 1.12. Option C

Explanation:

Current liabilities = $185

Income before interest and taxes = $170

10% Bonds, long-term = $360

Interest expense = $36

Total liabilities = $545

Income before tax = $134

Stockholders' equity Income tax = $29

Common stock = $222

Net income = $105

Retained earnings = $289

Total stockholders' equity = $511

Total liabilities and equity = $1,056

1. Times interest earned ratio = Earnings before interest and taxes/Interest expenses

= $170 ÷ $36

= 4.72

Current liabilities = $180

Income before interest and taxes = $118

10% Bonds, long-term = $360

Interest expense = $36

Total liabilities = $540

Income before tax = $82

Shareholders' equity Income tax = $20

Capital stock 201 Net income = $62

Retained earnings = $283

Total shareholders'equity = $484

Total liabilities and equity = $1,024

2. Debt to equity ratio = Total debt ÷ Total equity

= 540 ÷ 484

= 1.12

Cho's Performance Pizza is a small restaurant in Miami that sells gluten-free pizzas. Cho's very tiny kitchen has barely enough room for the three ovens in which her workers bake the pizzas. Cho signed a lease obligating her to pay the rent for the three ovens for the next year. Because of this, and because Cho's kitchen cannot fit more than three ovens, Cho cannot change the number of ovens she uses in her production of pizzas in the short run. However, Cho's decision regarding how many workers to use can vary from week to week because her workers tend to be students. Each Monday, Cho lets them know how many workers she needs for each day of the week. In the short run, these workers are __________ inputs, and the ovens are __________ inputs.

Answers

Answer: Variable ... Fixed

Explanation:

In the short run, Variable Inputs or costs are known as those which can be changed and their quantities can be varied. In this scenario, the employees that Cho's uses can be varied and so are the Variable Inputs.

Similarly, those costs that cann ot be changed or varied in the short run are rightly known as Fixed Inputs. Cho's Kitchen cannot take more than 3 ovens and also she has already signed a lease for them. These costs cannot be changed and so make the oven a Fixed Input.

It is worthy of note that in the long term, all Costs are considered Variable.

The new equipment will allow you to make more of your product in the same amount of time.​ Thus, you forecast that total sales will increase next year by 16 % over the current amount of 102 comma 000 units. If your sales price is $ 19 per​ unit, what are the incremental revenues next year from the​ upgrade?

Answers

Answer:

$310,080

Explanation:

Incremental revenue refers to the additional revenue generated by a certain project or activity. In this case, your sales should increase by 16% from 102,000 units to 118,320 units. Total revenue will increase from $1,938,000 (= 102,000 x $19) to $2,248,080 (= 118,320 x $19).

The incremental revenue = $2,248,080 - $1,938,000 = $310,080

Which of the following are a type of overhead allocation method?
a. division overhead rate method.
b. activity-based costing method
c. departmental overhead rate method
d. plantwide overhead rate method

Answers

Answer:

b. activity-based costing method

c. departmental overhead rate method

d. plantwide overhead rate method

Explanation:

B. Activity based costing method allocates different cost pools or drivers to each overhead based on its level of activity or usage etc. For example if we want to find the cost of telephone calls we would find the number of total calls not number of days. Similarly if we want to calculate the wages we will find the number of hours not days etc.

C. Department overhead rate method allocates different rates to each department. For example the rates of the lubricating department may be different from the finishing department or polishing department etc.

D. Platwide Overhead rate method allocates a single rate to all  the products. It is based on direct labor hours . And number of hours are used to allocate it to different products. For example the rate may be $1.5 per hour and it can be calculated for different products as product A requires 6 hours and product B requires 9 hours so the rate for Product A would be $ 9.0  and $ 12 for product B.

A.division overhead rate method. Theres no such overhead rate as division overhead rate method.

The plantwide overhead rate method. Thus the option D is correct.

What is the overhead allocations ?

The overhead allocation refers to the rate of the cost allocations . The core components of the cost allocations is track the organization products and services.  The business can identify the services that helps in managing the company's financial resources.

                              Quantity    Price per unit $            total value $

Opening stock         6,500          8.25                        53,625.00  

Purchases(Jan7)      9,000          8.00                        72,000.00

Purchases(Jan 21)    10,000        9.00                        90,000.00

Total                        25,500                                          215,625.00  

The total number of goods available for sale is 25,500 units

The total cost of goods available for sale is $215,625

The cost of goods sold would then be the costs of goods available for sale less the value of closing stock of inventory

Sloan Corporation is considering new equipment. The equipment can be purchased from an overseas supplier for $3,831. The freight and installation costs for the equipment are $554. If purchased, annual repairs and maintenance are estimated to be $415 per year over the four-year useful life of the equipment. Alternatively, Sloan can lease the equipment from a domestic supplier for $1,745 per year for four years, with no additional costs.
Required:
a. Prepare a differential analysis dated December 3 to determine whether Sloan should lease (Alternative 1) or purchase (Alternative 2) the equipment. Refer to the lists of Labels and Amount Descriptions for the exact wording of the answer choices for text entries. For those boxes in which you must enter subtracted or negative numbers use a minus sign. If there is no amount or an amount is zero, enter "0". A colon () will automatically appear if required. (Hint: This is a "lease or buy" decision, which must be analyzed from the perspective of the equipment user, as opposed to the equipment owner.)
b. Determine whether the Sloan should lease (Alternative 1) or purchase (Alternative 2) the equipment.

A differential analysis is carried out to determine whether alternative projects' revenues and costs are higher. This way you can determine which project or investment costs less or generates higher profits.

One person owns a company's bond, and another owns a share of stock. The company makes a profit of $50 during a certain year. The bondholder is owed a coupon payment of $50, and the stockholder is promised a dividend of $50.

Which of the following is the likeliest outcome of this situation?

a) The bondholder is paid $50

b) The stockholder is paid $50

c) Each investor is paid $25

d) The company keeps the $50 as retained earnings

e) None of these outcomes are likely to happen

2) Assume you bought a share of stock a year ago at a certain price, and today you need the money, so are forced to sell it even though the price has decreased.

Which of the following statements is true?

a) The stock's dividend yield is negative.

b) The stock's dividend yield is positive.

c) The stock's capital gains yield is negative.

d) The stock's capital gains yield is positive.

e) The stock's current yield is negative.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option for the first question is A,the bondholder is paid $50

The correct option for the second question is C,the stock's capital gains yield is negative

Explanation:

The company has to pay the $50 owed to bondholder as payment of coupon payment takes precedence over payment of dividends.

It would be inappropriate to keep the $50 in retained earnings since there is a covenant in the agreement signed with bondholders that their coupon payment annually is mandatory.

The correct answer to the second question is that the stock's capital gains yield is negative.

Capital gains yield =the price now(which is lower)-original price/original price

Since the numerator would give a negative figure,overall yield is negative

The following information is available for Marigold Corp.: Allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2019 $23000 Credit sales during 2020 1250000 Accounts receivable deemed worthless and written off during 2020 26800 As a result of a review and aging of accounts receivable in early January 2021, it has been determined that an allowance for doubtful accounts of $16700 is needed at December 31, 2020. What amount should Marigold record as "bad debt expense" for the year ended December 31, 2020?

Answers

Answer: $20500

Explanation:

Bad debt is the amount of money that a credit owes the company and is not willing to be paid hence may not be collected.

The amount that Marigold should record as "bad debt expense" for the year ended December 31, 2020 goes thus:

Bad debt allowance balance needed =

$16700

Add: Bad debt that are written off = $26800

Less: Allowance for doubtful accounts = $23000

Bad debt expense will now be:

= $16700 + $26800 - $23,000

= $43500 - $23000

= $20500

A manufacturing plant is planning to replace outdated equipment with more energy-efficient and environmental-friendly equipment. Two models are under consideration. Model A is sold for $159,000 and can produce at an optimum speed of 78 unit/hour. Model B is sold for the same price, but can produce at an optimum speed of 76 unit/hour. Model A requires 6 hours of maintenance for every 4300 units produced, while Model B requires 5 hours of maintenance for every 3300 units. The maintenance cost for both models is $100 per hour. The variable operating cost is $340 per hour for Model A and $290 per hour for Model B. Due to obsolete parts, there is a sunk cost of $2700 for model A and $1900 for Model B .

Samantha, who is single and has MAGI of $28,000, was recently employed by an accounting firm. During the year, she spends $2,500 for a CPA exam review course and begins working on a law degree in night school. Her law school expenses were $4,200 for tuition and $450 for books (which are not a requirement for enrollment in the course).

Assuming no reimbursement, how much can Samantha deduct for the:

a. CPA exam review course? $X
b. Law school expenses? $X

Answers

Answer:

a. CPA exam review course $0

b. Law school expenses $4,000

Explanation:

1a. CPA exam review course will be $0 because the IRS has disallowed any costs that will lead to qualifying for a different trade .

1b. The Law School expenses will be $4,000 . Based on section 222, Samantha is been limited to $4,000 of the tuition paid.

Therefore the balance of $650 is excess tuition $200 + $450 books which will not qualify under the regular education expense deduction due to the negative position of the IRS on law school costs.

Pelzer Printing Inc. has bonds outstanding with 10 years left to maturity. The bonds have a 9% annual coupon rate and were issued 1 year ago at their par value of $1,000. However, due to changes in interest rates, the bond's market price has fallen to $950.70. The capital gains yield last year was -4.93%. What is the yield to maturity

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 9.85%

Explanation:

The number of periods N = 9years(10 years minus 1 year ago)

Yield to Maturity (I/Y) = ?

Present value of the bond (PV) = $950.70

Future value of the bond(FV) = $1,000

Annual payment (PMT) = $90 (9% x $1,000)

Using a financial calculator to solve the problem ( BA II plus Texas instruments):

Yield to Maturity (I/Y) = 9.85%

Answers

Answer: The answer is given below

Explanation:

It should be noted that for the cash basis income statement, the revenue were cash sales of $6000 and customer deposit of $1000 making a total of $7000. The expenses were the inventory purchased of $1000 and the wages paid of $600 making $1600. Cash income was now:

= $7,000 - $1600

= $5400

For the accrual income statement, the revenue was $10000 and expenses were $7800. The cash Income was now: $10,000 - $7800 = $2,200
