Answer 1

Answer: b. The premium reflecting the risk that unanticipated events will occur over the term of the security.

Explanation:

The Maturity Risk Premium refers to an additional rate of return that is put on a long term instrument such as a bond to cater for unanticipated events during the time that the bond is to be held.

For example, there is a risk that inflation rates could rise sharply.

This is why the Maturity Risk Premium is important. To ensure that returns are stable even if such events occur.

Calvin and Hobbes run a company that sells wallet chains and wallet decals. Calvin is faster at making decals than chains, and Hobbes is faster at making chains than decals. Which statements accurately describe the situation?

Answers

Answer:

Company output will be maximized if Calvin makes all the decals and Hobbes makes all the chains.

-Calvin has a comparative advantage for making decals.

-Hobbes has a higher opportunity cost for making decals than Calvin.

Explanation: Each partner should focus on the task where he has a comparative advantage.

In the situation of Calvins: if someone has a comparative advantage in producing something, that means he also has a lower opportunity cost in practicing that object.

In the situation of Hobbes: if he has a higher opportunity cost for making decals, then Calvin has a lower opportunity cost for making decals.

Answer:

The correct answers are letters "A", "B", and "C".

Explanation:

Comparative advantage is the advantage an individual, company or country has that allows them to produce at lower opportunity cost compared to rivals. It does not necessarily mean that they have an absolute advantage. Due to lower opportunity costs, a company can offer its products at lower prices generating more revenue.

In the case, as Hobbes is faster at making chains, Hobbes has a comparative advantage on chains over Calvin. Though, as Hobbes is slower in making decals, Hobbes has higher opportunity costs than Calvin on decals. In such a way, Calvin has a comparative advantage in making decals.

Therefore, the chains and decals output would be maximized if Calvin makes decals only and Hobbes makes chains only.

Nutty Productions Inc. generated service revenue of $56,000 and income from operations of $23,000. The company estimates that, had it extended credit it would have instead generated $99,000 of service revenue, but it would have incurred $38,000 of additional expenses for wages and bad debts. 1-a. Using these estimates, calculate the amount by which Income from Operations would increase By___________

Answers

Answer:

Net income from operations would increase by $5,000

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

generated service revenue=$56,000

service revenue if had extended credit=$99,000

Incremental cost = $ 38000

Therefore, first in order to calculate the amount by which Income from Operations would increase By, we have to calculate first the Incremental revenue if credit is extended

Incremental revenue if credit is extended = $99,000 - $56,000 = $43,000

Therefore, Net income from operations would increase by = $43,000 - $38,000 = $ 5,000

Answer:

$5,000

Explanation:

Income from operations is the difference between the revenue from operations and the expenses incurred in the process of generating this revenue.

Given that extending credits  would have resulted in sales being $99,000 and an additional expense of $38,000, net income from operations would be

= $99,000 - $38,000 - $23,000

= $38,000

Income from operations without credit extension

= $56,000 - $23,000

= $33,000

Increase in operating income

=$38,000 - $33,000

= $5,000

Which of the following will NOT shift the aggregate supply curve to the left? a decrease in corporate taxes an increase in the minimum wage an increase in the legislated amount of paid vacation an increase in the price of crude oil

Answers

Answer: a decrease in corporate taxes

Explanation: Aggregate supply refers to the total supply of goods and services available to a particular market from producers. It is the total amount of goods and services that firms are willing and able to sell at a given price level in an economy.

A decrease in the corporate taxes will not shift aggregate supply to the left because when the supply shifts to the left, the price level increases and the GDP decreases. Therefore, a decrease in corporate taxes cannot make supply shift to the left.

The following data are available for two divisions of Solomons Company. North Division South Division Division operating profit $ 6,000,000 $ 40,000,000 Division investment 30,000,000 320,000,000 The cost of capital for the company is 8 percent. Ignore taxes. Required: a-1. Calculate the ROI for both North and South divisions. a-2. If Solomons measures performance using ROI, which division had the better performance? b-1. Calculate the EVA for both North and South divisions. (The divisions have no current liabilities.) b-2. If Solomons measures performance using economic value added, which division had the better performance? c. Would your evaluation change if the company’s cost of capital was 16 percent? 1. When evaluated by ROI? 2. When evaluated by EVA?

Answers

Answer:

a-1. Calculate the ROI for both North and South divisions.

ROI North Division = net profit / cost of investment = $6,000,000 / $30,000,000 = 20%ROI South Division = net profit / cost of investment = $30,000,000 / $320,000,000 = 9.38%

a-2. If Solomons measures performance using ROI, which division had the better performance?

North Division, since its ROI is much higher

b-1. Calculate the EVA for both North and South divisions. (The divisions have no current liabilities.)

North Division EVA = (net investment) x (actual return on investment – percentage cost of capital) = $30,000,000 x (20% - 8%) = $3,600,000South Division EVA = (net investment) x (actual return on investment – percentage cost of capital) = $320,000,000 x (9.38% - 8%) = $4,416,000

b-2. If Solomons measures performance using economic value added, which division had the better performance?

It should choose South Division because its EVA is higher.

c. Would your evaluation change if the company’s cost of capital was 16 percent?

1. When evaluated by ROI?

No it would not change because ROI doesn't consider cost of capital.

2. When evaluated by EVA?

Yes it would change because South Division's EVA would be negative, while North Division's will decrease but remain positive.

North Division EVA = (net investment) x (actual return on investment – percentage cost of capital) = $30,000,000 x (20% - 16%) = $1,200,000

South Division EVA = (net investment) x (actual return on investment – percentage cost of capital) = $320,000,000 x (9.38% - 16%) = -21,184,000

Answer:

Solomons Company

North and South Divisions

North/South Divisions:

Operating Profit = $6,000,000/$40,000,000

Investment = $30,000,000/$320,000,000

Cost of Capital (WACC) = 8%

a-1) ROI for both North and South Divisions:

ROI = Return on Investment

= Operating Profit/Investment x 100

North's ROI = 6/30 x 100 = 20%

South's ROI = 40/320 x 100 = 12%

a-2) If Solomons measures performance using ROI, the North division had the better performance.

b-1) Calculation of EVA for both North and South divisions:

EVA = Economic Value Added.

EVA = Net Operating Profit After Taxes minus (Invested Capital x WACC)

North's EVA = $6,000,000 - ($30,000,000 x 8%) =6m - 2.4m = $3,600,000

South's EVA = $40,000,000 - ($320,000,000 x 8%) = 40m - 25.6m = $14,400,000

b-2) If Solomons measures performance using economic value added, the South division had the better performance.

c) 1. When ROI is evaluated using 16% cost of capital, the North division had a better performance.  So the evaluation changes based on the 16% cost of capital.  Whereas, North makes 20% ROI as against 16% cost of capital, the South manages 12% ROI as against 16% cost of capital.

c) 2. When performances are evaluated by EVA with 16% cost of capital:

North's EVA = $6,000,000 - ($30,000,000 x 16%) = 6m - 4.8m = $1,200,000

South's EVA = $40,000,000 - ($320,000,000 x 16%) = $40m - $51.2m = ($11,200,000)

When evaluated by EVA using 16% cost of capital, my evaluation would favour the North instead of the South.

Explanation:

ROI or Return on Investment is a financial performance measure which measures the profitability of an investment in a simple way.  It compares the return on an investment relative to its cost.  It is expressed as a percentage.

EVA or Economic Value Added is also a financial performance measure which subtracts the cost of capital from the operating profit in order to gauge in dollars terms the value created by the firm.

A bank run involves:

A) a failure by a bank to get the maximum return on its investments.
B) large numbers of depositors withdrawing their deposits within a short period of time.
C) a bank being forced out of business.
D) fraud on the part of a bank's managers.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": large numbers of depositors withdrawing their deposits within a short period of time.

Explanation:

A bank run is a situation in which account holders massively withdraw their funds under the fear the financial institution will lose its liquidity. The situation gets to a point in which the bank is at risk of sensing all its reserves and fail to provide all its clients the money they deposited.

In the U.S. financial institutions with deposits between $16 and $122.3 million must have a minimum reserve of 3%. When the deposits exceed $122.3 million the minimum reserve increases to 10%. The rest of the money is reinvested by banks.

1. $7,000 of merchandise inventory was ordered on September 2, 2009 2. $3,000 of this merchandise was received on September 5, 2009 3. On September 6, 2009, an invoice dated September 4, 2009, with terms of 3/10, net 30 for $3,250 which included a $250 prepaid freight cost, was received. 4. On September 10, 2009, $800 of the merchandise was returned to the seller. Based on the above information, by what date does the invoice need to be paid in order to take the advantage of the discount?

a. September 15, 2009
b. September 16, 2009
c. September 10, 2009
d. September 14, 2009

Answers

Answer:

Correct option is A

Explanation:

Invoiced purchases are $ 3,000, out of which $ 800 worth of goods were returned, and an extra shipping charge of $ 250 needs to be paid.

Total amount of the invoice 3,000

Add: Shipping Charges       250

Less: Value of goods return (800)

Amount to be paid                   $2,450

There will be no discount to be deducted because the invoice was not paid within the 10 days discount period.

$2,450

Final answer:

To take advantage of the discount offered in the invoice terms of 3/10, net 30, payment must be made by September 14, 2009.

Explanation:

The terms of the invoice are 3/10, net 30, which means that a 3% discount is available if the payment is made within 10 days of the invoice date. The date on the invoice is September 4, 2009. Therefore, to take advantage of the discount, payment must be made by September 14, 2009. The $800 of merchandise returned does not change this payment date for the discount; it would just adjust the total amount due. Should the payment be made on the discount date, the company would benefit not only from the discount but also from optimal cash flow management, aligning with sound financial principles and organisational behavior in promptly addressing invoice terms.

A. reconnaissance staff
B. spotters
C. bounce-backs
D. spiffs
E. steppers

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": spotters.

Explanation:

Spotters are individuals who act on behalf of a business without the need of being employees. Usually, the company engages in a regular sale relationship with these individuals and offers them rewards -in the form of discounts, for instance- in exchange for promoting the benefits of certain products or referring other potential buyers.  

Spotters use word-to-mouth marketing to promote an entity.

Pete is using buyers as 'spotters' by incentivizing them to refer new customers to boost car sales through a grassroots marketing strategy.

Pete, a salesperson at a Honda dealership, offers buyers $50 when they refer someone else who purchases a new car. By doing this, Pete is trying to convert these buyers into his spotters. The term spotter refers to individuals who can identify potential customers and refer them to a salesperson or business. This tactic is a grassroots marketing strategy, where businesses rely more on word-of-mouth and personal referrals rather than formal advertising, which can be seen as a more authentic form of marketing.

Therefore, the appropriate answer is B. spotters.

A firm has fixed operating costs of $253,750, a sales price per unit of $100, and a variable cost per unit of $65. The firm's operating breakeven point in dollars is ________.

Answers

Answer:

$725000

Explanation:

The break-even point is the point at which the firms total expenses is equal to its total revenue and it neither makes a profit nor a loss. At any point before this, the firm makes a loss and at any point after this, the firm is making a profit. This is because, it has got to a point where after the unit variable costs are covered from the revenue, there is enough to cover fixed costs as well because the firm’s fixed costs are now being spread over a greater number of units.

The break-even point is calculated as:

Fixed costs / (Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit)

Hence, in this case : $253750 / ($100 - $65) = 7250 units.

In dollars, this would be...

Revenue : 7250 x $100 = $725000

Expenses : $253750 + ($65 x 7250) = $725000

Newark liberty airport is a very busy airport. Continental airlines is one of the largest carriers at the airport. Their on-time rate is not bad but predicated on the weather. On a specific day the weather forecast is predicting snow conditions with probability of 25%, rain condition with 35% probability and cloudy but no precipitation with a 40% probability. If it snows there is an 83% probability the flight will be late, 75 % probability the flight is late if it rains and a 40% probability it is late under cloudy but no precipitation conditions. It is a rainy day, what is the probability the continental flight is late ?

21%
33%
41%
63%

Answers

Final answer:

To find the probability that the Continental flight is late on a rainy day, we need to use the given probabilities and calculate the conditional probability. The probability that the Continental flight is late on a rainy day is 75%.

Explanation:

To find the probability that the Continental flight is late on a rainy day, we need to use the given probabilities and calculate the conditional probability. According to the information provided, the probability of rain is 35% and the probability of the Continental flight being late given rain is 75%. The formula for conditional probability is:



P(A|B) = P(A and B) / P(B)



Using the formula, the conditional probability of the Continental flight being late when it is raining is:



P(Late|Rain) = P(Late and Rain) / P(Rain) = (0.75 * 0.35) / 0.35 = 0.75



Therefore, the probability that the Continental flight is late on a rainy day is 75%.

Using excel regression analysis, the regression results are below:

This gives regression equation as: CPI = 167.73 + 1.62T

Kindly check the attached image below for the step by step explanation.

In order to find CPI values for 1998 and 1999, substitute value of T = 9 and 10 respectively

This gives:

CPI(1998) = 182.32

CPI(1999) = 183.94

Final answer:

To forecast the data using simple linear regression, we can calculate the regression equation and use it to predict the CPI for the next two months. The equation is CPI = 104.176 + 2.729T, where T represents the year. The forecast for 1998 is CPI = 134.215, and the forecast for 1999 is CPI = 136.944.

Explanation:

To forecast the data using simple linear regression, we need to calculate the regression equation and then use it to predict the CPI for the next two months. Using the given data, we can calculate the regression equation using the formula: CPI = a + bT, where T represents the year. Using the data points provided, we calculate the equation to be CPI = 104.176 + 2.729T. To find the forecast for the next two months, we substitute T = 11 for 1998 and T = 12 for 1999 into the equation. Therefore, the forecast for 1998 is CPI = 104.176 + 2.729(11) = 134.215, and the forecast for 1999 is CPI = 104.176 + 2.729(12) = 136.944.

Rent revenue - Increase is credit, decrease is debit

Explanation:

Bond payable and Unearned service revenue are liabilities.

Common stock is part of equity While rent revenue is income. A credit to a liability or an equity or an income account is to increase the balance.

Building and depreciation expense are assets and expense respectively. A debit to an expense or an asset is to increase it while a credit decreases it balance.

Which of the following differences would result in future taxable amounts? Expenses or losses that are tax deductible after they are recognized in financial income. Revenues or gains that are taxable before they are recognized in financial income. Revenues or gains that are recognized in financial income but are never included in taxable income. Expenses or losses that are tax deductible before they are recognized in financial income.

Answers

Answer: Expenses or losses that are tax deductible before they are recognized in financial income.

Explanation:

Future taxable amounts arise as a result of a difference between the way an asset or liability is recorded due to the company's financial accounting principles and the way it should be recorded due to taxation principles of the government.

When this happens you will find that some things are not taxed as they should be, but rather as the company records them to be. These differences are only temporary though and correct themselves as time goes on.

An example of such are expenses of losses. Some expenses for instance may be taxable immediately but are instead only taxed in the business over the term of the expense.

Which of the following is true about the short-run aggregate supply curve.
Select the correct answer below:
A. It is vertical
B. It is always a horizontal line
C. It is downward sloping
D. It is upward sloping

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": It is upward sloping.

Explanation:

The short-run Aggregate Supply Curve is upward sloping because it establishes a directly proportional relationship between quantity supplied and prices. It means, as soon as the quantity supplied increases so will the price. Besides, it considers production has a fixed factor which in most cases is capital.

Final answer:

The short-run aggregate supply curve is upward sloping because of inflexible input prices, temporary supply shocks, and changes in nominal wages. Firms are willing to produce more goods and services when their selling price increases in the short term.

Explanation:

In the context of macroeconomics, the correct answer to the question about the short-run aggregate supply curve is D. It is upward sloping. The Short-run Aggregate Supply (SRAS) curve is upward sloping because of three primary reasons. These reasons include inflexible input prices, temporary supply shocks, and changes in nominal wages. Inflexible input prices mean that in the short-term, costs such as wages may not change immediately in response to changes in output levels. Temporary supply shocks, such as sudden changes in the price of an essential resource, can cause the SRAS to shift. Also, changes in nominal wages can affect the position of the SRAS curve. In the short-term, firms are willing to produce more goods and services when their selling price increases. Hence, the curve is upward sloping.

A company has a selling price of $2,300 each for its printers. Each printer has a 2 year warranty that covers replacement of defective parts. It is estimated that 3% of all printers sold will be returned under the warranty at an average cost of $160 each. During November, the company sold 40,000 printers, and 500 printers were serviced under the warranty at a total cost of $65,000. The balance in the Estimated Warranty Liability account at November 1 was $34,000. What is the company's warranty expense for the month of November

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is $192,000.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows:

Returned average cost = $160

Printers sold = 40,000

Return percentage = 3%

So, we can calculate the company's warranty expense by using following formula:

Warranty expense = Returned average cost × Printers sold  × Return percentage

= $160 × 40,000 × 3%

= 6,400,000 × 3%

= $192,000

Answers

Answer:

Using 8.60% ROR,we will have current stock of $156.51,option D is correct.

Answer:

The stock price will be: $109.39

Explanation:

* The stock price will be equal to the sum of present value of:

+ Positive Growth annuity in the next four years;

+ Positive growth perpetuity starting in year 5.

- Calculation of positive Growth annuity in the next four years:

+ Dividend in year 1 = 3.1 x 1.17 = $3.627

+ Present value of the annuity = [ 3.627 / ( 8.6% - 17%) ] x [ 1 - [ (1+17%) / (1+8.6%)]^4 ] = $14.99.

- Calculation of positive growth perpetuity starting in year 5:

+ Dividend in year 5 = 3.1 x 1.17^4 x 1.04 = $6.04;

+ Present value of the perpetuity = [ 6.04 / (8.6% - 4%) ] / 1.086^4 = $94.40

=> Share price = 14.99 + 94.40 = $109.39

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard:

Variable overhead = $4.00 per hour

Actual output of 5,000 units

Actual direct labor-hours 1,900 hours

To calculate the variable overhead efficiency variance, we need to use the following formula:

variable overhead efficiency variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*Standard rate

Standard quantity= 5,000 units* 0.5 hours= 2,500 hours

Actual quantity= 1,900 hours

variable overhead efficiency variance= (2,500 - 1,900)*4= $2,400 favorable
