Answers

Answer: $36.50

Explanation:

The price she will be willing to be paid according to the Dividend Discount model is calculated by finding the present value of the future dividends and the terminal value.

Dividend year 1 = 1 * (1 + 20%) = $1.20

Dividend year 2 = 1.20 * (1 + 20%) = $1.44

Dividend year 3 = 1.44 * (1 + 15%) = $1.656

Terminal value = Dividend in year 4 / (required return - growth rate)

= (1.656 * (1 + 6%)) / ( 10% - 6%)

= $43.884

[tex]Price = \frac{1.2}{(1 + 0.10)} + \frac{1.44}{(1 + 0.10)^{2} } + \frac{1.656}{(1 + 0.10)^{3} } + \frac{43.884}{(1 + 0.10)^{3} }\\\\= 36.4959\\\\= 36.50[/tex]

The president of State University wants to forecast student enrollments for this academic year based on the following historical data: Year Enrollments 5 Years ago 15,000 4 Years ago 16,000 3 Years ago 18,000 2 Years ago 20,000 Last Year 21,000 What is the forecast for this year using trend-adjusted (double) smoothing with alpha

Answers

Answer:

19,500

Explanation:

Calculation for the Forecast for this year

First step is to calculate the Forecast for last year

Forecast for last year= [(1 - 0.5 ) × 16,000 ) + ( 0.5 × 20,000)]

Forecast for last year= [(0.5 × 16,000 ) + ( 0.5 × 20,000)]

Forecast for last year= 8,000 + 10,000

Forecast for last year= 18,000

Now let calculate the Forecast for this year

Forecast for this year= [(1 - 0.5 ) × 18, 000 ) + ( 0.5 × 21,000)]

Forecast for this year= [(0.5 × 18, 000 ) + ( 0.5 × 21,000)]

Forecast for this year= 9,000 + 10,500

Forecast for this year= 19,500

Therefore the Forecast for this year will be 19,500

a. $47,381
b. $49,875
c. $57,881
d. $55,125
e. $52,500

Answers

Answer:

e. $52,500

Explanation:

Beginning  balance of retained earnings= $555,000

Net earning for the period=$172,500

Closing retained earnings balance for the period: $675,000

Closing retained earning =Beginning balance + net earnings - dividend

$675000 = $555,000 +$172,500- Dividends

$675000 = $727,500 - Dividends

Dividends = $727,500 - $675,000

Dividends =$52,500

Based on past experience, Maas Corp. (a U.S.-based company) expects to purchase raw materials from a foreign supplier at a cost of 1,000,000 francs on March 15, 2021. To hedge this forecasted transaction, on December 15, 2020, the company acquires a call option to purchase 1,000,000 francs in three months. Maas selects a strike price of $0.58 per franc when the spot rate is $0.58 and pays a premium of $0.005 per franc. The spot rate increases to $0.584 at December 31, 2020, causing the fair value of the option to increase to $7,500. By March 15, 2021, when the raw materials are purchased, the spot rate has climbed to $0.59, resulting in a fair value for the option of $10,000. The raw materials are used in assembling finished products, which are sold by December 31, 2021, when Maas prepares its annual financial statements.

A company purchased a new delivery van at a cost of $46,000 on July 1. The delivery van is estimated to have a useful life of 4 years and a salvage value of $3,400. The company uses the straight-line method of depreciation. How much depreciation expense will be recorded for the van during the first year ended December 31?

Answers

Answer:

The amount of depreciation expense that will be recorded for the van during the first year ended December 31 is $5,325.

Explanation:

Since the company uses the straight-line method of depreciation, the annual depreciation expenses can first be calculated using the following formula:

Annual depreciation expense = (Cost of the asset - Salvage value) / Useful life ............ (1)

Where;

Cost of the asset = $46,000

Salvage value = $3,400

Useful life = 4

Substituting the values into equation  (1), we have:

Annual depreciation expense = ($46,000 - $3,400) / 4

Annual depreciation expense = $10,650

Since July 1 to December 31 is just half of the year, the amount of depreciation expense that will be recorded for the van during the first year ended December 31 is the halve of the annual depreciation expense that can be calculated as follows:

Depreciation expense to be recorded = Annual depreciation expense / 2 = $10,650 / 2 = $5,325

A merchant plans to sell two models of home computers at costs of $250 and $400, respectively. The $250 model yields a profit of $45 and the $400 model yields a profit of $50. The merchant estimates that the total monthly demand will not exceed 250 units. Find the number of units of each model that should be stocked in order to maximize profit. Assume that the merchant does not want to invest more than $70,000 in computer inventory. (See Exercise 21 in Section 9.2.)

Answers

Answer:

That is there is maximum profit when 250 units of $250 model computer and 50 units of $400 model computer is stocked.

Explanation:

Let x represent the number of $250 model and let y represent the number of $400 model. Since the total monthly demand will not exceed 250 units, hence:

x + y < 250      (1)

Also the merchant does not want to invest more than $70,000, hence:

250x + 400y < 70000     (2)

x, y ≥ 0

Plotting the equations using geogebra online graphing tool. The solution to the problem is at (0,0), (200, 50), (250,0), (0, 175).

The profit equation is:

Profit = 45x + 50y

At (0,0); Profit = 45(0) + 50(0) = 0

At (250,0); Profit = 45(250) + 50(0) = $11250

At (0,175); Profit = 45(0) + 50(175) = 8750

At (200,50); Profit = 45(200) + 50(50) = $11500

Therefore the maximum profit is at (200, 50). That is there is maximum profit when 250 units of $250 model computer and 50 units of $400 model computer is stocked.

Your company manufactures and sells a variety of personal care products such as hair dryers and curling irons. Every hair dryer is properly labeled and contains safety precautions against misuse. Patrick purchases an SF9000 hair dryer from your company website. After a month of use where the hair dryer functions properly, Patrick accidentally drops it in water causing him an electric shock. Patrick sues your company for breach of the implied warranty of merchantability. Discuss whether the implied warranty of merchantability exists for this product and whether it has been violated in this situation.

Answers

Answer:

Product Implied Warranty

According to the Uniform Commercial Code, a product warranty guarantees that a product will work when used for its intended purposes.  There are two key types of implied warranties: merchantability and fitness.  The implied warranty of merchantability states that a product will meet reasonable expectations of the buyer.  The implied warranty of fitness means that the product will meet the buyer's intended use.

Based on the above, we can conclude that the implied warranty of merchantability actually exists for the hair dryer.  However, Patrick clearly violated it in this situation through the accident of dropping it in water.

Having thus violated the warranty, he cannot reasonably recover any damages from the company.

Explanation:

a) Facts of the case:

1. Every hair dryer is properly labeled and contains safety precautions against misuse.

2. The SF9000 hair dryer that Patrick purchased functioned properly for a month.

3. Patrick accidentally drops the hair dryer in water, causing him an electric shock.

4. Patrick sues for breach of the implied warranty of merchantability.

One year ago, Deltona Motor Parts deposited $17,500 in an investment account for the purpose of buying new equipment three years from today. Today, it is adding another $21,000 to this account. The company plans on making a final deposit of $13,000 to the account one year from today. How much will be available when it is ready to buy the equipment, assuming the account pays 5.5 interest

Answers

Answer:

$58,445.13

Explanation:

Calculation for How much will be available when it is ready to buy the equipment, assuming the account pays 5.5 interest

Using this formula

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

Let plug in the formula

First deposit= 17,500*(1.055^4)

First deposit= $19,316.73

Second deposit=21 ,000*(1.055^3)

Second deposit= $24,659.07

Third deposit= 13,000*(1.055^2)=

Third deposit=$14,469.33

Total= $58,445.13

Therefore How much will be available when it is ready to buy the equipment, assuming the account pays 5.5 interest is $58,445.13

The €/$ spot exchange rate is €1.50/$ and the 120 day forward exchange rate is €1.45/$. The forward premium (discount) is Group of answer choices the dollar is trading at an 8% premium to the euro for delivery in 120 days. the dollar is trading at a 5% premium to the Swiss franc for delivery in 120 days. the dollar is trading at a 10% discount to the euro for delivery in 120 days. the dollar is trading at a 5% discount to the euro for delivery in 120 days.

Answers

Answer:

The forward premium (discount) is:

the dollar is trading at a 10% discount to the euro for delivery in 120 days.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Spot exchange rate = €1.50/$

120 day forward exchange rate = €1.45/$

When the forward rate is less than the spot rate, the means that the currency is trading at a discount in the forward market.

The formula for calculating the forward premium or discount is:

= (Forward Rate Minus Spot Rate)/Forward Rate * 360/120

= (€1.45 - €1.50)/€1.45 * 360/120

= €-0.05/€1.45 * 3

= €-0.03448 * 3 = -10.3%

b) The forward premium occurs when the forward exchange rate is higher than the spot exchange rate. The forward discount occurs when the forward exchange rate is lower than the spot exchange rate.  Forward premium or discount is normally expressed as the annualized percentage of the difference, using 360 days.

Your boss approaches you in mid-December and requests that you pay certain employees their gross pay amount as if there were no deductions as their year-end bonuses. None of the employees have reached the Social Security wage base for the year. Required: What is the gross-up amount for each of the following employees

Answers

Answer:

The gross up amount for each employee is $4,500.

Explanation:

Social security wage base is a amount of tax on the salary which is used as a social security at the old age. The amount is determined based on a person's salary. The employees will have no deduction from their salary as they do are not eligible for social security wage base. The year end bonus will be the gross which is paid to the employees.

A company that manufactures air-operated drain valve assemblies currently has $100,000 available to pay for plastic components over a 5-year period. If the company spent only $52,000 in year 1, what uniform annual amount can the company spend in each of the next 4 years to deplete the entire budget

Answers

Answer:

$18,297.31

Explanation:

The computation of the uniform amount that could be spend is shown below"

Here we determine the PMT

Given that

We assume the RATE = 10%

NPER = 5 - 1 = 4

PV = $100,000 × 1.1 - $52,000

= $110,000 - $52,000

= $58,000

FV = $0

The formula is given below:

= PMT(RATE,NPER,PV,FV,0)

The present value comes in negative

After applying the above formula, the uniform annual amount is $18,297.31

Suppose that Boeing Corporation exported a Boeing 747 to Lufthansa and billed €10 million payable in one year. The money market interest rates and foreign exchange rates are given as follows: Picture Assume that Boeing sells a currency forward contract of €10 million for delivery in one year, in exchange for a predetermined amount of U.S. dollar. Which of the following is (or are) true? On the maturity date of the contract Boeing will: (i) have to deliver €10 million to the bank (the counterparty of the forward contract) (ii) take delivery of $14.6 million (iii) have a zero net euro exposure (iv) have a profit, or a loss, depending on the future changes in the dollar-euro exchange rate, from this German (euro currency zone) sale Group of answer choices (i) and (iv) (ii) and (iv) (ii), (iii), and (iv) (i), (ii), and (iii)

Answers

Answer:

All Choices (i) (ii) and (iii) except (iv) are correct.

Explanation:

Solution:

Choices (i) (ii) and (iii) are correct in this question.

As we know that, it is a forward contract at the time of maturity so, Boeing 747 will have to deliver 10 million euros to the bank as per the forward contract obligation (fulfills the choice (i)). Furthermore, with forward currency, after selling 10 million euro worth of contract, Boeing 747 will take delivery at 14.6 million dollars  which is in US dollars as currency exchange (fulfills the choice (ii)). Hence, after maturity it will not have any exposure to euro (fulfills the choice (iii)).  

Hence, All Choices (i) (ii) and (iii) except (iv) are correct.

Answer both parts of the following question. a. The San Francisco Chronicle reported that the toll on the Golden Gate Bridge was raised from $2 to $3. Following the toll increase, traffic fell by 5 percent. Based on this information, calculate the arc price elasticity of demand. Is demand elastic or inelastic

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "0.1".

Explanation:

Formula:

[tex]\text{Elasticity}= \frac{\% \text{volume changes in demand}}{ \% \text{price rise}}[/tex]

Calculating the value of price percent:

[tex]= \frac{(3-2)}{2} \times 100 \\\\= \frac{1}{2} \times 100 \\\\= \frac{100}{2} \\\\=50 \%[/tex]

Calculating the value of quantity change:  [tex]= -5 \%[/tex]

Calculating the value of elasticity:

[tex]= \frac{-5}{50} \\\\ = \frac{-1}{10} \\\\= -0.1[/tex]

Through this convention, the environmental signal is decreased and elasticity =0.1 is achieved until conductivity. Whose comparatively in elasticity is not as high as 1.

The market price of a security is $74. Its expected rate of return is 20.2%. The risk-free rate is 3% and the market risk premium is 6.5%. What will be the market price of the security if its correlation coefficient with the market portfolio doubles (and all other variables remain unchanged)

Answers

Answer:

The market price of the security if its correlation coefficient with the market portfolio doubles (and all other variables remain unchanged) will be $44.10.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore presented before answering the question as follows:

The market price of a security is $74. Its expected rate of return is 20.2%. The risk-free rate is 3% and the market risk premium is 6.5%. What will be the market price of the security if its correlation coefficient with the market portfolio doubles (and all other variables remain unchanged)

Assume that the stock is expected to pay a constant dividend in perpetuity.

Explanation of the answer is now given as follows:

Since the correlation coefficient with the market portfolio doubles (and all other variables remain unchanged), it implies that beta and also the risk premium will also double.

From the question, we can obtain:

Current risk premium = Expected rate of return - Market risk premium = 20.2% - 6.5% = 13.70%

As the current risk premium will double, we have:

New risk premium = Current risk premium * 2 = 13.70% * 2 = 27.40%

Also, we have:

New discount rate = New risk premium + Market risk premium = 27.40% + 6.5% = 33.90%

Since it is assumed that the stock is expected to pay a constant dividend in perpetuity, the dividend can therefore e calculated as follows:

Dividend = Current market price * Current expected rate of return = $74 * 20.2% = $14.95

The new market price of the security can now be calculated as follows:

New market price of the security = Dividend / New discount rate = $14.95 / 33.90% = $44.10

Therefore, the market price of the security if its correlation coefficient with the market portfolio doubles (and all other variables remain unchanged) will be $44.10.
