Answer:

Stock C

Explanation:

In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below

Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

The (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)  is also called market risk premium

For Stock A

= 2.4% + 0.72 × 7.80%

= 2.4% + 5.616%

= 8.016%

For Stock B

= 2.4% + 1,48 × 7.80%

= 2.4% + 11.544%

= 13.944%

For Stock C

= 2.4% + 1.40 × 7.80%

= 2.4% + 10.92%

= 13.32%

For Stock D

= 2.4% + 1.06 × 7.80%

= 2.4% + 8.268%

= 10.668%

Since we see that the expected rate of return for stock C is equal to the expected rate of return so the stock C is correctly priced

The present value of a $1,000,000 lottery prize that pays out $50,000 annually for 20 years, taking into account a 4.25% interest rate, is approximately $577,462.86.

The present value of the lottery prize can be calculated using the formula for the present value of an ordinary annuity. An annuity is a series of equal payments made at regular intervals. The formula for the present value of an ordinary annuity takes into account the periodic payment amount, the interest rate, and the number of payment periods.

In this case, the lottery payout is an annuity with a yearly payment of $50,000, the interest rate is 4.25% (expressed as 0.0425 as a decimal), and there are 20 payment periods.

So, the formula to calculate the present value of the annuity is as follows: PV = Pmt * [(1 - (1 + r)^-n) / r]

Where:

Substituting the given values into the formula:

PV = $50,000 * [(1 - (1 + 0.0425)^-20) / 0.0425]

When you calculate the expression inside the brackets first and then multiply by $50,000, you get a present value of approximately $577,462.86.

This means that the $1,000,000 lottery prize, paid out as $50,000 per year for 20 years and discounted at an interest rate of 4.25%, is roughly worth $577,462.86 in today's dollars.

Answer:

c. Four (4)

Explanation:

The total dollar return on the investment is calculated by adding the total capital gain ($7,236) and the total dividends ($1,350) which results in a total return of $8,586.

The question involves calculating the total dollar return on an investment in the stock market. To determine the total dollar return, we must consider both the capital gain (or loss) and the dividend payments received during the investment period.

First, let's calculate the capital gain:

Sale price per share: $47.49

Purchase price per share: $44.81

Number of shares: 2,700

Capital gain per share: $47.49 - $44.81 = $2.68

Total capital gain: $2.68 \\u00d7 2,700 shares = $7,236

Next, let's calculate the dividend earnings:

Dividend per share: $0.50

Total dividends: $0.50 \\u00d7 2,700 shares = $1,350

Now, we can calculate the total dollar return:

Total capital gain: $7,236

Total dividends: $1,350

Total dollar return: $7,236 + $1,350 = $8,586

Answer:

30.92%

Explanation:

You find the answer by calculating the cost of equity using two methods; Dividend discount model and CAPM

Dividend discount model;

cost of equity; r = (D1/P0) +g

whereby, D1 = next year's dividend = 3.00

P0= current price = 13.65

g = dividend growth rate = 11% or 0.11 as a decimal

r = (3/13.65) + 0.11

r = 0.2198 + 0.11

r= 0.3298 or 32.98%

Using CAPM;

r = risk free + beta (Market risk premium)

r = 0.049 + (2.8 * 0.0856)

r = 0.049 + 0.2397

r = 0.2887 or 28.87%

Next, find the average of the two cost of equities;

=(32.98% + 28.87% )/2

= 30.92%

Answer:

The journal entry for the issuance of the bond is shown below:

Explanation:

The entry to be posted on Jan 1

Cash A/c..............................................Dr   $76,180

    Premium on bonds payable A/c........Cr     $6,180

    Bonds Payable A/c..................................Cr   $70,000

As bonds issued, so cash is increasing and any increase in cash is debited. Therefore, the cash account is debited. But the bonds issued at a premium so the premium on the bonds payable will be credited. And bonds payable account is credited.

The journal entry to record the issuance of the bonds would be: Debit Cash $76,180, Credit Bonds Payable $70,000, Credit Premium on Bonds Payable $6,180.

To record the issuance of the bonds, the journal entry would be as follows:

The debit to Cash represents the amount received from the issuance of the bonds. The credit to Bonds Payable represents the face value of the bonds. The credit to Premium on Bonds Payable represents the difference between the face value of the bonds and the amount received, which is recorded as a liability on the balance sheet.

= $258,790

Therefore, the amount to be reported by Bramble company is $258,790.

Answer:

$96.84

Explanation:

The computation of the stock price after three years are shown below:

= (Third-year dividend × growth rate) ÷ (Required rate of return - growth rate)

= ($2.69 × 1.08)  ÷ (11% - 8%)

= ($2.9052) ÷ (3%)

= $96.84

The growth rate equal to

= 1 + growth rate

= 1 + 8%

= 1.08

We simply apply the growth model so that the after three years stock price can be correctly computed

Final answer:

The stock price after three years is calculated using the Dividend Discount Model for a perpetuity, considering the given dividends and expected growth rate, resulting in a value of $96.12.

Explanation:

The question asks to calculate the worth of a stock after three years, given the dividends for the first three years and an expected perpetual growth rate thereafter. The dividends for year 1 are $1.80, year 2 are $2.12, and year 3 are $2.69. After year 3, dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 8% per year indefinitely. The required return for the stock is 11%. To find the stock price after three years, we will use the Dividend Discount Model (DDM) for a perpetuity which considers the dividend growth. The formula for the value of the stock at the end of year 3, which is before applying the growth rate in year 4, is: P3 = D3 * (1 + g) / (r - g), where P3 is the stock price at the end of year 3, D3 is the dividend in year 3, g is the growth rate (8%), and r is the required return (11%). Substituting the given values: P3 = $2.69 * (1 + 0.08) / (0.11 - 0.08) = $2.69 * 1.08 / 0.03 = $96.12. Therefore, the stock should be worth $96.12 after three years.

Answer:

B. $816,000

Explanation:

The computation of the net sales is shown below:

= Total sales - sales returned amount

where,

Total sales is $850,000

And, the sales returned amount would be

= Total sales amount × sales returned percentage

= $850,000 × 4%

= $34,000

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the value would be equal to

= $850,000 - $34,000

= $816,000

The book value of the machine at the end of year 3, using the units-of-production depreciation method, is $144,000. This is calculated based on the machine's actual usage of 8,000 hours in year 3.

To calculate the book value at the end of year 3 using the units-of-production depreciation method, we'll follow these steps:

1. Determine the depreciation per machine hour:

[tex]\[\text{Depreciation per Hour} = \frac{\text{Cost} - \text{Residual Value}}{\text{Total Estimated Machine Hours}}\][/tex]

2. Calculate the accumulated depreciation for each year:

[tex]\[\text{Accumulated Depreciation} = \text{Depreciation per Hour} \times \text{Actual Machine Hours}\][/tex]

3. Determine the book value at the end of each year:

[tex]\[\text{Book Value} = \text{Cost} - \text{Accumulated Depreciation}\][/tex]

Let's calculate it:

Given:

- Cost = $192,000

- Residual Value = $24,000

- Estimated Useful Life = 24,000 machine hours

- Actual Machine Hours in Year 1 = 6,000 hours

- Actual Machine Hours in Year 2 = 7,000 hours

- Actual Machine Hours in Year 3 = 8,000 hours

1.

[tex]\[\text{Depreciation per Hour} = \frac{192,000 - 24,000}{24,000 \text{ hours}} = 6[/tex]

2.

[tex]\[\text{Accumulated Depreciation Year 1} = $6 \times 6,000 \text{ hours} = $36,000\\\text{Accumulated Depreciation Year 2} = $6 \times 7,000 \text{ hours} = $42,000\\\text{Accumulated Depreciation Year 3} = $6 \times 8,000 \text{ hours} = $48,000[/tex]

3.

[tex]\text{Book Value Year 1} = $192,000 - $36,000 = $156,000\\\text{Book Value Year 2} = $192,000 - $42,000 = $150,000\\\text{Book Value Year 3} = $192,000 - $48,000 = $144,000[/tex]

Therefore, the book value at the end of year 3 is $144,000.

The complete question is:

A machine that cost $192,000 has an estimated residual value of $24,000 and an estimated useful life of 24,000 machine hours. The company uses units-of-production depreciation and ran the machine 6,000 hours in year 1, 7,000 hours in year 2, and 8,000 hours in year 3.

Calculate its book value at the end of year 3.

Answer:

$5,100

Explanation:

Initial cash balance (IB) = $32,500

Expected cash receipts (EC) = $48,500.

Cash disbursements (CD) = $56,100

Amount borrowed (B) = ?

Assuming that the final balance must equal at least $30,000, the cash flow for april is given by:

[tex]\$30,000 = IB +EC-CD+B \\B= \$30,000 -\$32,500-$48,500+\$56,100\\B=\$5,100[/tex]

Sit Down Corporation will need to borrow $5,100 during April to maintain a minimum cash balance of $30,000.

Answer: (B)

Compared to the first economist, the second economist must be assuming either a smaller induced increase in consumption, a larger crowding out effect, or both.

Explanation:

First of all, I'll like to explain some terms:

- Government Expenditure Multiplier is an index or figure showing the percentage by which Gross domestic product (GDP) will increase, when Government Expenditure increases; all other kinds of expenditure held constant

- the GDP equation is

GDP= C + I + G + (X-M)

Where C = consumption expenditure (by individuals)

I = investment expenditure (by firms)

G = government expenditure

(X-M) = international trade (export-import) expenditure

- If we hold other independent variables constant and measure the government expenditure multiplier, we will derive the index that shows the amount by which an increase in G will increase GDP.

Now to the question;

Crowding out effect means an act by the government to purchase so much more domestic goods and services than they previously purchased.

This is done deliberately by the government for various reasons: to boost the economy, to provide social welfare goods, and to kick-start national projects.

It is called "crowding out" because these huge government purchases limit private sector purchases.

If the 2nd economist assumes a larger crowding out effect, that means greater government expenditure, then this rhymes with the higher GM (government expenditure multiplier) that his estimate produces. GM of 1.25 means that a percent increase in G will increase GDP by 25%.

On the other hand, Economist 1's estimate of 0.75 implies a 25% decrease in GDP (coming from a decrease in G), which explains his part of option B. He (economist 1) is assuming a lesser crowding out effect.

If we add the assumption of Economist 2 that there'll be smaller induced increase in consumption, it follows that C will have a less positive impact on GDP.

If we combine both changes in C and G, we also have G producing more increase in GDP.

You are welcome.

Answer:

the correct answer is B

"Compared to the first economist, the second economist must be assuming either a smaller induced increase in consumption, a larger crowding out effect, or both".

Explanation:

Government use multiplier used to show increment in level of GDP when government use increment other than consistent of other consumption.  

Gross domestic product = c+I+g + ( x-m)  

In the event that we steady all use or free factors expected g which is meant government consumption at that point to compute government multiplier the expansion in g consequently increment in GDP.  

Swarming impact:- under this administration buy all the more increasingly residential merchandise and ventures which limits private division buy and this circumstance is gotten swarming out.  

So if financial specialist second have bigger swarming exertion implies government use increment and this lead higher government multiplier . Gm of 1.25 implies that percent expansion in g lead GDP increment by 25% .  

Financial specialist second gauge 0.75 methods 25% abatement in GDP .

Answer:

Letter A is correct. Face morale and motivation problems.

Explanation:

A company with a high degree of formalization is a company with a vertical organizational structure. Vertical management is represented by a classic business structure, based on the principle of top-down authority and command and a fixed organization chart.

Being an inflexible organizational model, there are some disadvantages, such as difficulty in interaction between areas and teams, communication failure due to communication noise, which can lead to the creation of moral conflicts and also the lack of motivation of employees, which due to Organizational rigidity is not so active in the process of contributing ideas and suggestions to organizational objectives, as decision making is centralized and concentrated at the top of the hierarchy.

Answer:

This evaluation best exemplifies a "behavior-level" measure.

Explanation:

Donald Kirkpatrick proposed a Four-level training evaluation model for evaluating the impact of training on employees.

The four levels are; Reaction, Learning, Behavior and Results.

The behavior level of Kirkpatrick's model is the third stage and it comes after employees have undergone learning/training. At this stage, the behavior is measured through monitoring and observation to determine if they are implementing what they have learnt.

This gives some insight into how effective the training was.

Therefore GetHelp Inc. by monitoring the phone calls of their customer service representatives are carrying out a "behavior-level" measure.

Answer:

$78,750 unfavorable

Explanation:

Total labor variance can be divided into direct labor efficiency variance and the direct labor rate variance

Direct labor efficiency variance (DLEV):

DLEV = (Expected labor hours - actual labor hours)*standard rate

[tex]DLEV=(0.01*510,000 - 13,000)*7,50\\DLEV = -59,250[/tex]

Direct labor rate variance (DLRV):

DLRV = Actual labor hours * (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)

[tex]DLRV = 13,000*(7.50 - 9.00)\\DLRV = -19,500[/tex]

Since both values are negative, they are both unfavorable and the total labor variance (TLV) is given by:

[tex]DLRV = 13,000*(7.50 - 9.00)\\DLRV = 59,250 + 19,500\\TLV = \$ 78,750 \ unfavorable[/tex]

Expected rate of return is 13.632%.

Answer:

C) limited; unlimited

Explanation:

Economics can be described as the study of how people use limited resources to satisfy unlimited wants.

Economics is the study of how people use limited resources to satisfy unlimited wants, which requires making choices due to the scarcity of resources.

Economics can be described as the study of how people use limited resources to satisfy unlimited wants. The correct answer to the student's question is C) limited; unlimited

Scarcity is a core concept in economics, indicating that there is a finite amount of resources available to meet the endless human wants and needs. Resources such as labor, tools, land, and raw materials are essential to produce the desired goods and services but are not available in unlimited quantities. Time is another scarce resource; with only 24 expendable hours in a day, people must make choices about how to allocate their time among work, leisure, and rest.

Because of these limitations, economics studies how individuals and societies prioritize and allocate their resources, making trade-offs to best satisfy the varying wants and needs. Every choice made implies another option foregone, which is known as an opportunity cost.

It would take Bartran Company a minimum of 5 days to create at least one finished ink cartridge if they started with nothing in stock.

Using the information given, we can determine the lead times for each component and calculate the total lead time to create a finished ink cartridge. The longest lead time comes from procuring new labels, which is 5 days. Therefore, it would take Bartran Company a minimum of 5 days to create at least one finished ink cartridge if they started with nothing in stock.

Total Lead Time Calculation: Since the longest lead time is 5 days (procuring new labels), it sets the minimum total lead time for creating a finished ink cartridge. This is because all other steps can occur in parallel or have lead times shorter than or equal to 5 days.

Therefore, if Bartran Company started with nothing in stock and initiated the process of creating an ink cartridge, it would take a minimum of 5 days to complete at least one finished ink cartridge.

Answer:

increased in budget = $98000

correct option is A $98000

Explanation:

given data

produce = 20,000 units per month

variable costs = $392,000

fixed costs = $242,000

increases production = 25,000 units

to find out

how much will they have to increase their budget

solution

we get here total cost or present budget that is

total cost = variable cost + fixed cost

total cost = $392000 + $242000

total cost = $634000

and

variable cost per unit will be here

variable cost per unit = [tex]\frac{variable\ costs}{produce}[/tex]

variable cost per unit = [tex]\frac{392000}{20000}[/tex]

variable cost per unit = 19.6

and

variable cost for increased production = increases production × variable cost per unit  

variable cost for increased production = 25000 × 19.6

variable cost for increased production = 490000

and

total cost of increased production = fixed cost + variable cost for increased production

total cost of increased production = $242000 + $490000

total cost of increased production = $732000

and

increased in budget = $732000 - $634000

increased in budget = $98000
