Answer:

The internal rate of return is 11%,  the investment will be accepted.  

Payback Period is 5

Explanation:

We use excel or a spreadsheet to calculate this ratio. See document attached.

We must use a cash flow to solve this problem.

At moment 0 we have the investment cost , in this case $436,900. From period 1 to period 6, we have incomes o benefits of $103,273. Then, we calculate the Net cash flow that is the difference between benefits and cost.

We use all the result (positive and negative) in Net cash flow to get the IRR.

The decision rules are 3:

Net Present Value (NPV)

Internal Rate of Return (IRR)

Payback Period

Given:

Expected value, E(X)= $600

Net Profit = $99400

Cost of playing once = $600

Solution:

Let the probability of winning be P(X) and that of losing [tex]P(\bar{X})[/tex]

[tex]P(\bar{X})[/tex] = 1 - P(X)

Now expected value, E(X) =  [tex]Profit\times P(X) + loss\timesP(\bar{X}) [/tex]

E(X) = 99400P(X) + (-400)(1 - P(X))

600 = 99400P(X) -400 +400P(X)

P(X) = 0.01

Therefore, the probability of winning is P(X) = 0.01 or 1%

Final answer:

To find the probability of winning a game with an expected value of $600 and a cost to play of $600, we use the expected value formula. The gain from winning is $99,400, leading to a probability of winning of approximately 0.60%.

Explanation:

To calculate the probability of winning, we use the concept of expected value, which is the average amount one can expect to win per game over many plays. Here, the expected value of the game is given as $600, which is also the cost to play. To find the probability of winning, we assume that if you win, there is a net gain of $99,400 ($100,000 - $600 to play). Let's denote the probability of winning as P(win).

The expected value (EV) of the game can be calculated with the formula:

EV = (P(win) × Gain from Winning) - (P(loss) × Cost of Losing)

Since you either win or lose, P(loss) is 1 - P(win) and the Cost of Losing is $600. As the expected value is $600 and the cost of playing is $600:

$600 = (P(win) × $99,400) - ((1 - P(win)) × $600)

By solving for P(win), we find that:

P(win) = $600 / $99,400

P(win) ≈ 0.0060422956 ≈ 0.60%

Thus, the probability of winning the game is approximately 0.60%.

Answer: 0.9858

Explanation:

Binomial distribution formula

[tex]P(X=x)=^nC_x\ p^x\ (1-p)^{n-x}[/tex], where P(x) is the probability of getting success in x trials , n is total number of trials and p is the probability of getting success in each trial.

Given : The probability that bulbs in the lot is defective = 0.30

Sample size = 18

If the number of defective bulbs is 2 or more, the lot fails inspection.

Then , the probability that the lot will fail inspection is given by :-

[tex]P(X\geq2)=1-(P(X<2))\\\\=1-(P(0)+P(1))\\\\=1-(^{18}C_0\ (0.3)^0 (1-0.3)^{18}+^{18}C_1\ (0.3)^1 (1-0.3)^{17})\\\\=1-((0.3)^0 (0.7)^{18}+18(0.3)^1 (0.7)^{17})\approx0.9858[/tex]

Hence, the probability that the lot will fail inspection =0.9858

Answer:

There is a 98.58% probability that the lot will fail inspection.

Explanation:

For each light bulb in the production lot, there are two possible outcomes. Either they are defective, or they are not. This means that we can solve this problem using concepts of the binomial probability distribution.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem we have that:

There are 18 light bulbs, so [tex]n = 18[/tex].

30% of the bulbs in the lot are defective. This means that [tex]p = 0.3[/tex].

If the number of defective bulbs is 2 or more, the lot fails inspection. Suppose 30% of the bulbs in the lot are defective. What is the probability that the lot will fail inspection?

This is [tex]P(X \geq 2)[/tex].

Either there are 2 or more defective bulbs, or there are less than two. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So:

[tex]P(X < 2) + P(X \geq 2) = 1[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{18,0}.(0.30)^{0}.(0.70)^{18} = 0.0016[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{18,1}.(0.30)^{1}.(0.70)^{1t} = 0.0126[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.0016 + 0.0126 = 0.0142[/tex]

Finally

[tex]P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.0142 = 0.9858[/tex]

There is a 98.58% probability that the lot will fail inspection.

Answer:

current yield 8.2089552%

YTM = 8.05%

effective annual yield = 4.92%

Explanation:

(A)

current yield = C/P

coupon payment / market price

8.8/107.2 = 0.082089552 = 8.2089552%

(B)

[tex]P = \frac{C}{2} \times\frac{1-(1+YTM/2)^{-2t} }{YTM/2} + \frac{CP}{(1+YTM/2)^{2t}}[/tex]

First par being the present value of the coupon payment and second the redeem of the face value at the end of the bond.

market price 107.2

face value 100

time = 19

rate 8.8%

C = annual coupon payment 100 x 8.8% = 8.8

You solve this using a financial calculation and get the semiannual rate

YTM/2 = 0.040268160

then multiply by 2 to get the annual YTM

0.040268160  x 2 =

YTM = 0.08053632 = 8.05%

(C)

Effective Annual Yield

[tex](1+HPR)^{365/time} -1 = EAY[/tex]

where:

Holding period return:

[tex]\frac{Net \: Return}{Investment} = HPR[/tex]

In this case:

coupon payment + redem - investment = net return

8.8 * 19 + 100 - 107.2 = 160

160/107.2 = 1.492537313

Then

[tex](1+HPR)^{365/time} -1 = EAY[/tex]

[tex](1+1.142537313)^{\frac{365}{19\times365}} -1 = EAY[/tex]

EAY = 0.049242509 = 4.9242509%

The properties of a bond, such as the coupon rate, maturity date and face value, are used to calculate the current yield, the yield to maturity (YTM), and the effective annual yield of a bond. The yield represents the return an investor will receive by holding the bond.

A bond has several parts. It is an 'I owe you' note that an investor receives in exchange for capital or money which the borrower has to pay back at maturity. The specifics of a bond are usually given by the coupon rate or interest rate, its maturity date, and its face value, which is the amount the borrower agrees to pay the investor at maturity.

The current yield on a bond is calculated by the annual income (the interest payment) divided by the current market price. For the bond from Workman Software, the annual interest income is 8.8% of its face value and is currently sold for 107.2% of par. The yield to maturity or YTM represents the total returns expected on a bond if it is held until maturity. This considers both the coupon payments received semiannually and the face value received at the end of maturity. Finally, the effective annual yield takes into account the compounding of interest in a given year.

Final answer:

Organizations with a strong ethical climate prioritize customers' interests, leading to positive job attitudes and ethical behavior. These companies value fairness, supportiveness, and respect for individual rights, which promotes a culture where people are considered the greatest asset.

Explanation:

Most organizations with strong ethical climates usually focus on the core value of placing customers' interests first. This emphasis on customer-centric values aligns with fostering a set of shared values within the organization, ensuring that employees are encouraged and motivated to treat others the way they would like to be treated themselves. By prioritizing customers' needs and establishing an ethical foundation, companies can enhance job attitudes, behaviors, and overall ethics, leading to a work environment where people are happier, more committed, and demonstrate a stronger attachment to their organization. Moreover, a customer-focused approach contributes to long-term relationships based on ethics and trust, crucial for the sustained success of any business.

People-oriented cultures hold fairness, supportiveness, and respect for individual rights in high regard, and this is exemplified in the way they treat both their employees and customers. Companies that live by the principle that 'people are their greatest asset' create an atmosphere where employees do not feel compelled to choose between work and their personal lives, leading to healthier job attitudes and citizenship behaviors that benefit the organization as a whole. As Heineman (2007) asserts, when behaving ethically becomes part of the company's core values, it is reflected in the company's metrics and overall operations.

Answer:

The contribution per pound for K1, S5, and G9 is $64 per pound, $27 per pound, and $66 per pound respectively.

Explanation:

The contribution margin shows a difference between selling price per unit and the variable cost per unit.

In equation, it is displayed below:

Contribution per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

Since, in the question we have to calculate the contribution margin per pound  for each of the three products. So by using the above equation, the calculation can be made which is shown below:

Contribution margin per pound for Product K1

= K1 Selling price per pound - K1 Variable cost per pound

= $160- $96

= $64 per pound

Contribution margin per pound for Product S5

= S5 Selling price per pound - S5 Variable cost per pound

= $112- $85

=$27 per pound

Contribution margin per pound for Product G9

= G9 Selling price per pound - G9 Variable cost per pound

= $210- $144

=$66 per pound

Other costs and production level is immaterial while calculating contribution margin for these three products.

Hence, the contribution per pound for K1, S5, and G9 is $64 per pound, $27 per pound, and $66 per pound respectively.

Answer: Statement A

Explanation: Convertible bonds is a type of bond security which gives its holder the right to convert each bond to a specified number of shares. These are hybrid securities having features of both equity and debt.

.

Warrants are securities that give their holder the right to purchase the common shares of the company at a specified price and before a certain time period.

.

Thus, from the above explanation we can conclude that statement A is correct.

The main difference between convertible bonds and warrants is that convertible bonds allow the investor to convert the bond into a set number of company shares, while warrants grant the right to purchase the shares at a specific price. Both provide a means to benefit from the company's growth through equity exposure, but with less risk compared to directly buying stocks.

The difference between convertible bonds and warrants lies in the rights they confer to the investor. Convertible bonds allow the investor the option to exchange the bond for a predetermined number of shares of the issuing company's stock at a certain conversion price. Meanwhile, a warrant gives the investor the right to purchase shares of the company's stock at a specific price until the expiration date of the warrant. Both instruments are linked to the company's equity and provide a way for investors to potentially benefit from the company's growth without directly purchasing shares.

It's important to note that investing in corporate stocks carries more risk compared to bonds. While the market price of a stock can be volatile, a bond's return is contractually fixed unless the issuer defaults. Bonds, on the other hand, are subject to interest rate risk, which affects the market price of existing bonds if the general level of interest rates change.

Moreover, from a firm's point of view, issuing bonds is a form of borrowing directly from investors which can be cheaper than obtaining a bank loan. A bond is essentially an I.O.U., indicating that the firm owes a contractual amount of interest payments to bondholders and must repay the principal at maturity, regardless of the company's performance. Conversely, equity investors are entitled to a share of the corporation’s earnings, which are not guaranteed and are dependent on the company's success or failure.

Anti virus spyware, installing firewall and ensuring the working of all patches for an operating system and application are more important tasks to do in such situation.

Answer

Correct option is (a). An organization needs to be prepared in order to avoid a possible cyber attack. Though a number of steps are involved in preventing such an attack, restarting the active directory database is not one of them.

Explanation

A Cyber attack can be defined in the most simple manner as an attempt to gain access to a computer system illegally with the motive to cause harm. Cyber attacks can compromise data and may lead to several Cyber crimes such as information and identity theft.  

Active directory is a Microsoft technology. It is used to manage computers and other devices on a network. Its purpose is to authorize and authenticate all users and computers. Restarting an active directory database is not going to prevent cyber attacks as it will not stop skeleton key malware from attacking and gaining control of the system.

Abby made a return of $285 on the first stock and then reinvested $2815 after taking a commission fee into account. To realize the same return, she needs to receive $3100 next year.

Let's start by calculating the return Abby made on the first stock. She bought the stock for $25.80 per share, buying a total of 100 shares which leads to an investment of $25.80 * 100 = $2580. She then sold the stocks for a total of $2865, resulting in a return of $2865 - $2580 = $285.

Next, Abby plans to reinvest the total amount but now there is a $50 commission fee. So, the amount she actually invests is $2865 - $50 = $2815. To realize the same return as her first investment, she should add the return of $285 to her invested amount so the total amount she needs to receive next year would be $2815 + $285 = $3100.

Final answer:

The country fits into the second stage of Rostow's model, known as the preconditions for take-off, where it begins to move toward industrialization and the economy starts to demand more supplies for manufacturing.

Explanation:

The country in question, which has begun manufacturing both semidurable and nondurable consumer goods and demands equipment and supplies to support manufacturing, fits into the second stage of Rostow's five-stage model of economic growth. This stage is known as the preconditions for take-off. At this level, the society is transitioning from an agrarian economy to one that begins to embrace industrialization. Infrastructure improvements and an increase in productivity in agriculture are typical, paving the way for more industrial activities. Investment in manufacturing industries drives the demand for equipment and supplies.

Rostow's model shows how economies evolve from a traditional society with a predominance of agriculture to a stage of high mass consumption with a diversified economy. Each stage represents increasing levels of economic output, urbanization, and improvements in the standard of living. As a country progresses through these stages, it witnesses significant structural changes across various sectors of the economy.

Answer:

The Project B is  better from a cash flow standpoint.

Explanation:

Payback period : The payback period is that period in which the investment amount is being repay to the company back in terms of profits or savings.

The formula to compute payback period is shown below

Payback period = Initial Investment ÷ Annual net cash inflows

For Project A = $250,000 ÷ $75,000

                      = 3.33 years

For Project B = $150,000 ÷ $52,000

                      = 2.88 years

By computing the payback period for both the projects, the Project B has less payback period than Project A.

Hence, the Project B is  better from a cash flow standpoint.

To determine which wind-farm tower project is better from a cash flow standpoint, we need to calculate the payback period for each project. Project B has a shorter payback period and is therefore better from a cash flow standpoint.

The payback period is a method used to evaluate investments based on when the initial investment is recovered through the project's net cash flows. To determine which wind-farm tower project is better from a cash flow standpoint, we need to calculate the payback period for each project.

For Project A, we divide the initial investment ($250,000) by the annual net cash flows ($75,000) to get a payback period of approximately 3.33 years.

For Project B, we divide the initial investment ($150,000) by the annual net cash flows ($52,000) to get a payback period of approximately 2.88 years.

Comparing the payback periods, we can conclude that Project B has a shorter payback period and is therefore better from a cash flow standpoint as it takes less time to recover the initial investment.

d. The company shall get the new robotics as there is net benefit of $650,000, and future benefits are more than current benefits.

e. Besides the costs and benefits the company shall consider the following factors also:

Time value of money,

Employees Training cost if required for new robotics.

Employees behavior towards this installation.

Environmental effects of such robotics, installed.

Explanation:

Provided details as follows:

Benefits every year with new robotics = $560,000

Benefits every year with old robotics = $400,000

Cost of new robotics = $220,000

Resale price of old robotics = $70,000

a. The marginal (added) benefits of the proposed new robotics

Marginal benefits are additional benefits

Benefits every year with new robotics = $560,000 per year

Less: Benefits every year with old robotics = $400,000 per year

Thus Marginal (added) Benefits = $160,000 for 5 years = $800,000

b. The marginal (added) cost of the proposed new robotics.

Marginal added cost will be additional cost

Cost of new robotics = $220,000

Final answer:

Ken Allen will perform a marginal cost-benefit analysis for replacing robotics at Bally Gears, Inc. The analysis reveals a marginal benefit of $160,000, marginal costs of $150,000, and a net benefit of $10,000, suggesting the investment is financially viable. Additional factors, such as technological obsolescence and operational impacts, should also be considered.

Explanation:

Ken Allen is tasked with performing a marginal cost-benefit analysis for Bally Gears, Inc., concerning the replacement of robotics on the heavy truck gear line. To assess this proposal effectively, Ken will calculate the marginal benefits, marginal costs, and the net benefit of the proposed new robotics and then make a recommendation based on these figures.

a. Marginal (added) benefits of the proposed new robotics

The marginal benefits are calculated by subtracting the total benefits of the existing robotics from the total benefits of the new robotics. Thus, $560,000 (new) - $400,000 (existing) = $160,000 as the marginal benefits.

b. Marginal (added) cost of the proposed new robotics

The marginal costs consider the initial cash investment required for the new equipment and the opportunity cost of selling the existing robotics. Therefore, $220,000 (new investment) - $70,000 (sale of existing) = $150,000 as the marginal costs.

c. Net benefit of the proposed new robotics

To find the net benefit, subtract the marginal costs from the marginal benefits: $160,000 - $150,000 = $10,000 as the net benefit.

d. Recommendation

Given that the marginal benefits exceed the marginal costs, resulting in a positive net benefit of $10,000, Ken should recommend proceeding with the replacement of the robotics. This investment is projected to improve the company's financial standing over the next five years.

e. Additional Factors to Consider

Beyond marginal costs and benefits, it's critical to consider factors like the potential for technological obsolescence, maintenance costs, operational disruptions during installation, and improvements in product quality or production efficiency that might influence the final decision.

Retained Earnings = 109,909

Explanation:

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{cccc}cash&25,135&AP&67,855\\AR&43,758&NP&36,454\\inventory&172,500&Long-term&222,300\\fixed \:assets&332,300&Common\: Stock&150,000\\other \: assets&13,125&RE&110,209\\Total Assets&586,818&Total L+E&586,818\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

First

We add all the assets together. 586,818

Then

we add the lliabilities and common stock. 476,909

Finally

We use the accounting equation to solve for RE

Assets = Liab + Equity

586,818 = sum of liab and equity accounts

we know that all the accounts, except RE add to 476,909

586,818 = 476,909 + RE

586,818 - 476,909 = RE

RE = 109,909

Answer:

No, I don't beliave

Explanation:

The classic economic model is based on the price competition system. This is a beneficial system for consumers who will pay a lower price as a result of competition. This works well in some sectors, but not all, such as schools.

In my view, the school cannot be used as a commodity. Schools have different structures for the same purpose, so some differ in their educational approach. If a competitive system is in place, it will pressure schools to streamline education to lower costs and maximize school profit - just as companies do. It turns out that a school does not have the same purpose as companies. The company aims for profit while the school aims to educate.

Final answer:

School choice programs promote competition among schools, encouraging improvement in services to attract students, aligning with economic principles applicable to both private and public organizations.

Explanation:

School voucher programs were designed to create competition among schools, public and private, with the belief that schools would improve their services to attract students. This concept is rooted in economic principles applicable to both private and public organizations.

The idea behind vouchers is that increased competition among schools leads to improved educational outcomes. This competition encourages schools to strive for excellence in order to attract students, similar to how businesses operate in a competitive market.

Although the impact of school choice programs on academic achievement and public school funding is still being studied, the competitive nature of these programs mirrors the economic principles of competition and improvement seen in private and public organizations.

Answer:

C) It is a vertical line at $600 billion of GDP

Explanation:

Aggregate supply is the total value of goods and services that companies established in a country are willing to produce and sell for each price level over a given period of time. It is therefore the sum of the supply curves of each firm.

Potential GDP, in turn, is the value of all final goods and services produced by an economy over a given period of time when all factors of production (capital and labor) are being tapped. It is the maximum production point of an economy. In this example, the potential GDP is 600 billion.

In the long run, an increase in the general price level does not affect aggregate production. Thus the aggregate supply curve of an economy represents the sum of all supply in a situation in which all factors of production are employed. This makes the vertical aggregate supply curve at 600 billion.

Answer:

The operating income for 2017 is $11,550

Explanation:

For computing the net income, first we have to calculate the cost of goods sold which is shown below:

Cost of goods sold = Opening merchandise inventory + Purchase - Closing inventory

= $11,650 + $89,500 - $14,400

= $86,750

Now, we know that if we deduct the cost of goods sold from sales, than gross profit is come.

So, Sales - Cost of goods sold = Gross profit

$142,300 - $86,750 = Gross Profit

Gross Profit = $55,550

Now deduct the Selling and Administrative Expenses from gross profit, so that net income can computed

So, Gross profit -  Selling and Administrative Expenses = Net income

$55,550 - $44,000 = Net income

Net income = $11,550

Hence, the operating income for 2017 is $11,550

Answer:

his is an example of how rewards are used in association with the reinforcement theory

Explanation:

The reinforcement theory is the process of adjust the behavior of a person or a group by giving them a punishment or a reward for a specific decision or action according to the desired results.

In this case, the employees are recognized by their good behavior when they avoid missing days for a three months period. They receive a visible recognition and some gifts; these rewards show a positive reinforcement according to the reinforcement theory

The Children's Hospital in Denver's recognition program for staff with perfect attendance aligns with Reinforcement theory as it uses rewards to positively reinforce the desired behavior.

The Children's Hospital in Denver's strategy of recognizing and rewarding staff members who have perfect attendance is an example of the use of rewards in association with Reinforcement theory. This motivational strategy is designed to increase the likelihood of the desired behavior - good attendance - by providing positive reinforcement. The hospital acknowledges employees with various prizes and the opportunity to choose from these rewards, with the individual who has the longest record of perfect attendance getting the privilege to select first. This technique aligns with the principles of reinforcement theory which suggests that behavior followed by positive consequences is likely to be repeated.

Answer:

Present value of future cash inflows of Project Y = $110,000 X 3.240 = $356,400

Explanation:

Provided cost of Proposal Y = $512,000

Residual Value = $0

Depreciation will not be considered as we need to consider the present value of future cash flows, depreciation does not involve any cash flow.

Useful life = 4 years

Estimated cash inflow per year = $110,000

Discount rate = 9%

Present Value of an Ordinary Annuity = 3.240 @ 9% for 4 years

Thus present value of future cash inflows = $110,000 X 3.240 = $356,400

Note: Net Present Value = Present Value of Cash Inflows - Present Value of  Cash Outflow = $356,400 - $512,000 = -$155,600

Final Answer

Present value of future cash inflows of Project Y = $110,000 X 3.240 = $356,400

The present value of future cash inflows for Proposal Y is computed by multiplying the annual net cash inflow ($110,000) by the present value of an ordinary annuity for 4 years at a 9% discount rate (3.240), which results in $356,400.

Given the parameters for Proposal Y: the estimated annual net cash inflow is $110,000 for 4 years with an annual discount rate of 9%. To compute the present value (PV) of the future cash inflows from Proposal Y, we have to multiply the annual net cash inflow by the present value of an ordinary annuity for 4 years at 9%.

From the provided annuity table, the present value factor for 4 years at 9% discount rate is 3.240. Therefore, the present value of future cash inflows from Proposal Y is $110,000 * 3.240 = $356,400.

Answer:

The company earns a net profit of $25,500 for the year ended December 31, 2013

Explanation:

The income statement is that statement which records expenditure & income and gains. It is also known as profit or loss account.

The income statement either comes in net profit or net loss which reflects the profit or loss of the company for a particular year.

The profit is come when revenues is higher than expenses whereas losses come when revenue is less than expenses.

The income statement for the year ended December 31, 2013 is shown below:

= Trucking fee earned - Salaries expenses - Office supplies expenses - Repair expenses - depreciation expenses

= $130,000  - $61,000 -  $8,000 - $12,000 - $23,500

= $25,500

Since, the  positive amount is come.

So, the company earns a net profit of $25,500 for the year ended December 31, 2013.

To set up a T-account balance sheet for the bank, list the assets (deposits, reserves, and government bonds) and the liabilities (loans). Calculate the bank's net worth by subtracting the liabilities from the assets.

To set up a T-account balance sheet for the bank, we list the assets and liabilities in separate columns. The assets include deposits ($400), reserves ($50), and government bonds ($70). The liabilities include loans ($500). The net worth of the bank, also known as equity, can be calculated by subtracting the liabilities from the assets. In this case, the net worth would be the sum of the assets ($400 + $50 + $70) minus the loans ($500), which equals $20.
