Answer:
Total cost= $204,750
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Fixed costs: supervisor’s salary $3,000; factory rent $6,500
Mixed costs: utilities $3,500 + $10.25 per unit
Variable costs per unit:
manufacturing labor wages $30.00
supplies used in production $13.50
packaging cost $7.25
warranty cost $4
Required: Compute total costs to be incurred for a week with 2,950 units of activity.
Fixed costs= 3,000 + 6,500 + 3,500= $13,000
Variable costs= (10.25 + 30 + 13.5 + 7.25 + 4)*2,950= $191,750
Total cost= $204,750
Food Shoppe Galore had the following information: Total market value of a company’s stock: $650 million Total market value of the company’s debt: $150 million What is the weighted average of the company’s debt? Multiple Choice 18.75% 40.75% 55.75% 81.25% 90.50%
Answer:
18.75%
Explanation:
Market value of stock = 650,000,000
Market value of debt = 150,000,000
Total market value of capital = Market value of stock + Market value of debt
Total market value of capital = 650,000,000 + 150,000,000 = 800,000,000
Calculate the proportion of debt;
= 150,000,000/ 800,000,000
= 0.1875
Convert the 0.1875 to a percentage; 0.1875 *100 = 18.75%
Therefore, the weight average of the company's debt is 18.75%
An airline has the following data about an airplane:
Annual lease cost $8,000,000
Lease term: 8 years
Useful life of airplane: 35 years
Fair market value of leased asset: $83 million
Present value of lease payments: $78 million
Bargain purchase option: None
Transfer to lessor at end of lease? Yes
Is this a capital or operating lease? Why?
A.
This is a capital lease because the leased asset cost exceeds $5 million.
B.
This is a capital lease because the substance of the transaction is a capital lease.
C.
This is a capital lease because it meets at least one of the four capital lease criteria.
D.
This is an operating lease. It fails all of the capital lease criteria.
Answer:
Option C). This is a capital lease because it meets at least one of the four capital lease criteria.
Explanation:
In the following situations, the lease transactions are called Finance Lease.
i) The lessee will get the ownership of leased asset at the end of the lease term.
ii) The lessee has an option to buy the leased asset at the end of lease term at price, which is lower than its expected fair value at the date on which option will be excercised.
iii) The lease term covers the major part of the life of asset.
iv) At the beginning of lease term, Present value of minimum lease rental covers substantially the initial fair value of the leased asset.
In the given question, Present value of minimum lease rental amounting to $ 78 million covers substantially 94 % portion of the initial fair value of leased asset. Accordingly, last condition / last situation mentioned above to treat lease as finance lease is satisfied in the given question. In other words, out of four capital lease criteria mentioned above, fourth criteria / fourth condition (At the beginning of lease term, Present value of minimum lease rental covers substantially the initial fair value of the leased asset) is satisfied in this given question.
Present value of minimum lease rental as a percentage of initial fair value of leased asset :-
= (78 Million / 83 Million ) * 100
= 0.94 * 100
= 94 % (approx).
Lease in given question is capital lease because it meets at least one of the four capital lease criteria.
The correct answer is D. This is an operating lease. It fails all of the capital lease criteria.
To determine whether the lease is a capital lease or an operating lease, we can use the criteria outlined by accounting standards. A capital lease is a lease that meets any one of the following four criteria:
The lease transfers ownership of the asset to the lessee at the end of the lease term.The lease contains a bargain purchase option.The lease term is equal to or greater than 75% of the estimated economic life of the leased property.The present value of the lease payments equals or exceeds 90% of the fair value of the leased property.In this case:
There is no bargain purchase option.The lease transfers the asset back to the lessor at the end of the term.The lease term (8 years) is less than 75% of the useful life of the airplane (35 years).The present value of the lease payments ($78 million) is less than 90% of the fair market value of the asset ($83 million).A company has a beginning inventory of $ 20 comma 000 and purchases during the year of $ 130 comma 000. The beginning inventory consisted of 3 comma 000 units and 6 comma 000 units were purchased during the year. The company has 5000 units left at yearminusend. Under averageminuscost, what is Cost of Goods Sold? (Round any intermediary calculations to two decimal places and your final answer to the nearest dollar.)
Answer:
$66,680
Explanation:
The computation of the cost pf goods sold is shown below:
= Number of units sold × average cost per unit
where,
Number of units sold equals to
= Beginning inventory units + purchased units - ending inventory units units
= 3,000 units + 6,000 units - 5,000 units
= 4,000 units
Now the average cost per unit would be
= (Beginning inventory + purchases) ÷ (Beginning inventory units + purchased units)
= ($20,000 + $130,000) ÷ (3,000 units + 6,000 units)
= $16.67
Now put these values to the above formula
So, the value would equal to
= $4,000 units × $16.67
= $66,680
Shelton Co. purchased a parcel of land six years ago for $877,500. At that time, the firm invested $149,000 in grading the site so that it would be usable. Since the firm wasn't ready to use the site itself at that time, it decided to lease the land for $56,000 a year. The company is now considering building a warehouse on the site as the rental lease is expiring. The current value of the land is $929,000. What value should be included in the initial cost of the warehouse project for the use of this land?
Answer:
The company should recognise $929,000 as the cost the land as this the fair value as at the date when management considers to build the warehouse.
Explanation:
Cost at date of purchase of land
The inital cost of the land is $1,026,500 (cost + grading cost); and since it was leased out, it will be accounted for in line with IAS 40 (Investment Property) to earn investment income (i.e. lease income).
Measurement of Investment property
An investment property can be measured at cost or fair value. The question didn't say that the land was depreciated, hence its assumed that it was measured at fair vale.
Measurement at date of commencement of constructing the warehouse
IAS 40 permits transferring investment property (e.g the land) to owner occupied property (i.e. the warehouse). Hence in determining the value of the land at this date we have measure the value in line with IFRS 13 (Fair Value Measurement).
Since we know the current market value of the asset at this date as $929,000. This would be recognised as the cost of the land.
Census Bureau data shows that the mean household income in the area served by a shopping mall is $72,500 per year. A market research firm questions shoppers at the mall to find out whether the mean household income of mall shoppers is higher than that of the general population.

Cost of goods sold = Beginning finished goods inventory + Cost of goods manufactured - Ending finished goods inventory
In the company:
Beginning finished goods inventory: $28,800
Cost of goods manufactured: $59,000
Ending finished goods inventory: $28,100
Therefore,
Cost of goods sold = $28,800 + $59,000 - $28,100 = $59,700

Project W requires a net investment of $1,000,000 and has a payback period of 5.6 years. You analyze Project W and decide that Year 1 free cash flow is $100,000 too low, and Year 3 free cash flow is $100,000 too high. After making the necessary adjustments,
(A) the NPV of Project W will decrease,
(B) the payback period for project W will be longer than 5.6 years.
(C) the IRR of Project W will increase
(D) the payback period for Project W will be shorter than 5.6 years
Answer:
Option C is correct.
Explanation:
The paycheck of a period is the time within which the initial investment is recovered.
It does not consider the time value of money, which means all cash flows have equal weightage.
The paycheck period is 5.6 years and it will not be affect by the change in the cash flow in the year 1 and 3.
The IRR (Internal return rate) and NPV ( Net present Value) of the project will get affected as these methods give more weightage to current flows than later.
Thus, increasing of year-1 cash flow decreasing of year-3 cash flow will increase the IRR and NPV of project.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C ( The IRR of the C will increase.)
Final answer:
Adjusting the cash flows of Project W by decreasing Year 1 by $100,000 and increasing Year 3 by the same amount results in a decreased NPV and a longer payback period, while the change in IRR cannot be determined without more information.
Explanation:
When adjusting the free cash flow for Project W, changing Year 1's inflow to be $100,000 lower and Year 3's to be $100,000 higher impacts the Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), and payback period. Since the NPV calculation discounts future cash flows to their present values, a reduction in earlier cash flows (Year 1) has a greater negative effect on the NPV than the same amount added to later cash flows (Year 3). Therefore, the NPV of Project W will decrease (A). The payback period measures how long it takes to recover the initial investment. Since Year 1's inflow decreases, it will take longer to recoup the investment, thus the payback period for Project W will be longer than 5.6 years (B). The IRR is the discount rate at which the NPV of all cash flows is zero. Adjusting cash flows could change the IRR, but without specifics on the overall cash flow pattern, it cannot be determined whether the IRR will increase (C) or not. So the statement that the payback period for Project W will be shorter than 5.6 years (D) is incorrect.

Indicate whether the following events might cause stocks in general to change price, and whether they might cause Big Widget Corp.'s stock to change price:
a. The government announces that inflation unexpectedly jumped by 2 percent last month.
b. Big Widget's quarterly earnings report, just issued, generally fell in line with analysts' expectations.
c. The government reports that economic growth last year was at 3 percent, which generally agreed with most economists' forecasts.
d. The directors of Big Widget die in a plane crash.
e.Congress approves changes to the tax code that will increase the top marginal corporate tax rate. The legislation had been debated for the previous six months.
Answer:
Check the explanation below
Explanation:
Inflation is systematic (Market) risk, it impacts all stocks
Results of company is unsystematic (Specific) risk, as they are as expected stock price wont have much impact
Economic growth is systematic (Market) risk, as it is inline with forecasts stock prices will be constant
Directors death is unsystematic (Specific) risk, stock price will go down
Taxation is systematic (Market) risk, as it is discussed from 6 month, stock price wont have much impact currently
Certain events affect stock prices differently. Unexpected inflation may lead to a general stock price decrease due to cost concerns. Known or anticipated events, like a consistent earnings report or expected economic growth, may not significantly move stock prices, while unexpected tragic company-specific events can cause severe drops in a company's stock price.
Determinants of stock prices can be greatly influenced by macroeconomic indicators, company-specific events, and changes in government policy. Here's how the events listed might affect stock prices in general and Big Widget Corp. specifically:
Inflation Increase: If the government announces that inflation unexpectedly jumped by 2 percent last month, it may cause stocks in general to decrease in price due to increased cost of goods and possible interest rate hikes. Big Widget Corp.'s stock might also decline if higher inflation means higher costs for the company.Quarterly Earnings Report: Big Widget's earnings report coming in line with expectations likely wouldn't result in a significant change in stock price, as the market has already priced in this news.Economic Growth Report: The report of economic growth at 3 percent, in line with forecasts, would likely not have a significant effect on stock prices, as this indicates a continuation of already-expected conditions.Directors' Tragic Accident: The sudden loss of Big Widget Corp.'s directors could lead to uncertainty about the company's future direction, potentially causing a significant drop in its stock price.Corporate Tax Rate Increase: The approval of higher top marginal corporate tax rates, that had been debated for months, could cause stocks in general to decline as corporate profits might be impacted. However, if the market anticipated this change, much of the impact may already have been factored into stock prices, including that of Big Widget Corp.
This variation in potential stock price changes reflects the market's response to new, unexpected information versus anticipated events.
The price elasticity of supply is affected by
A. whether the good produced has close substitutes available.
B. the passage of time.
C. whether the good produced is a luxury or a necessity.
D. the definition of the market.
E. the share of the good in consumer budgets.
Answer:
B. the passage of time.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of supply measures how sensitive quantity supplied are to changes in price.
Price elasticity of supply is determined by the passage of time.
Typically, in the short run, the elasticity of supply is usually inelastic. Prices do not usually impact quantity supplied because in the short run, some of the factors of production are fixed. But in the long run, the price elasticity of supply are more elastic.
The other factors listed above in the options affect the price elasticity of demand.
Miller Manufacturing has a target debt-equity ratio of .45. Its cost of equity is 11.4 percent and its cost of debt is 6.1 percent. If the tax rate is 24 percent, what is the company’s WACC?
Answer:6.89%
Explanation:
If it's target debt to equity ratio is 0.45, the percentage of debt in its capital structure = D /D + E = 0.45 / (1 +0.45) = 0.31 = 31%
The percentage of equity in the capital structure = 100 - 31% = 69%
The Weighted Average Cost of Capital = [Weight of debt × cost of debt × (1 - tax rate)] [weight of equity × cost of equity]
=( 0.31 × 11.4% × 0.76) + (6.1% × 0.69)
= 2.69 + 4.21 = 6.89%
Answer:
Explanation:
In the solution provided by ewomazinoade, Cost of debt (6.1%) and cost of equity (11.4%) has been mistakenly swapped.
So, the correct answer would be 9.3%

Determine the total amount of:
(a) Manufacturing overhead
(b) Product costs
(c) Period costs
Answer:
(a) Manufacturing overhead = $176,700
(b) Product costs = $390,400
(c) Period costs = $72,390
Explanation:
a. The computation of the manufacturing overhead is shown below:
= Factory utilities + Depreciation on factory equipment + Property taxes on factory building + Indirect factory labor + Indirect materials + Factory repairs+ Factory manager salary
= $17,000 + $13,950 + $2,600 + $49,900 + $82,600 + $2,350 + $8,300
= $176,700
b. The computation of the product cost is shown below:
= Direct materials used + Direct labor + manufacturing overhead
= $141,700 + $72,000+ $176,700
= $390,400
c. The computation of the period cost is shown below:
= Sales salaries + Depreciation on delivery trucks + Repairs to office equipment + Advertising + Office supplies used
= $47,500 + $4,700 + $1,900 + $15,500 + $2,790
= $72,390
The manufacturing overhead is $86,450, the product costs amount to $299,750, and the period costs are $75,390.
Explanation:(a) To calculate the manufacturing overhead, we need to add up all the costs and expenses that are indirectly related to the manufacturing process. These would include factory utilities, indirect factory labor, depreciation on factory equipment, property taxes on factory building, and factory repairs. Adding up these costs will give us the total manufacturing overhead which in this case is $86,450.
(b) Product costs consist of the direct materials used, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead. So, to find the product costs, we can add up these three costs which gives us a total of $299,750.
(c) Period costs include all the costs that are not directly related to the manufacturing of products. These would include sales salaries, repairs to office equipment, advertising, factory manager's salary, and office supplies used. Adding up these costs will give us the total period costs which in this case is $75,390.

Malkind Hardware is adding a new product line that will require an investment of $ 1 comma 418 comma 000. Managers estimate that this investment will have a 10-year life and generate net cash inflows of $ 320 comma 000 the first year, $ 280 comma 000 the second year, and $ 240 comma 000 each year thereafter for eight years. Compute the payback period. Round to one decimal place.
Answer:
5.4 years
Explanation:
In the payback, we analyze in how many years the invested amount is recovered. The computation is shown below:
In year 0 = $1,418,000
In year 1 = $320,000
In year 2 = $280,000
In year 3 = $240,000
In year 4 = $240,000
In year 5 = $240,000
In year 6 = $240,000
In year 7 = $240,000
In year 8 = $240,000
In year 9 = $240,000
In year 10 = $240,000
If we sum the first 5 year cash inflows than it would be $1,320,000
Now we deduct the $1,320,000 from the $1,418,000 , so the amount would be $98,000 as if we added the six year cash inflow so the total amount exceed to the initial investment. So, we deduct it
And, the next year cash inflow is $240,000
So, the payback period equal to
= 5 years + $98,000 ÷ $240,000
= 5.4 years
In 5.4 yeas, the invested amount is recovered.

Acme Manufacturing is producing $4,060,000 worth of goods this year and expects to sell its entire production. It also is planning to purchase $1,500,000 in new equipment during the year. At the beginning of the year, the company has $500,000 in inventory in its warehouse.
1. Find actual investment and planned investment if:
(a) Acme actually sells $3,850,000 worth of goods.
(b) Acme actually sells $4,000,000 worth of goods.
(c) Acme actually sells $4,200,000 worth of goods
Answer:
actual investment = $1560000
actual investment = $1710000
actual investment = $1360000
and
planned investment = $1500000
Explanation:
given data
producing goods = $4,060,000
new equipment = $1,500,000
inventory in warehouse = $500,000
to find out
actual investment and planned investment
solution
first if sell at = $3850000
unplanned investment is = producing goods - sell
unplanned investment = $4,060,000 - $3850000
unplanned investment = $60000
so
actual investment = planned investment + unplanned investment
actual investment = $1,500,000 + $60,000
actual investment = $1560000
and
next if actually sells is = $4,000,000
unplanned investment = $4,060,000 - $4,000,000
unplanned investment = $210,000
so
actual investment = planned investment + unplanned investment
actual investment = $1,500,000 + $210,000
actual investment = $1710000
and
next if actually sells is = $4,200,000
unplanned investment = $4,060,000 - $4,200,000
unplanned investment = $140,000
so
actual investment = planned investment + unplanned investment
actual investment = $1,500,000 + $140,000
actual investment = $1360000
To find the actual and planned investment, subtract the actual sales from the production value. If actual sales are less than expected, there is an actual investment. If actual sales are more than expected, there is a negative actual investment.
Explanation:To calculate the actual investment and planned investment, we need to consider the difference between the actual sales and the expected sales. The formula for investment is: Planned investment = Production value - Expected sales, Actual investment = Production value - Actual sales.
(a) Acme actually sells $3,850,000 worth of goods:
Planned investment = $4,060,000 - $4,060,000 = $0Actual investment = $4,060,000 - $3,850,000 = $210,000(b) Acme actually sells $4,000,000 worth of goods:
Planned investment = $4,060,000 - $4,060,000 = $0Actual investment = $4,060,000 - $4,000,000 = $60,000(c) Acme actually sells $4,200,000 worth of goods:

Jordan Company is considering the purchase of a machine with the following data:
Initial cost $150,000
One-time training cost 12,000
Annual maintenance costs 15,000
Annual cost savings 75,000
Salvage value 20,000
The cash payback period is
A) 2.70 years.
B) 2.50 years.
C) 2.37 years.
D) 2.17 years
Answer:
Option (A) is correct.
Explanation:
Given that,
Initial cost = $150,000
One-time training cost = 12,000
Annual maintenance costs = 15,000
Annual cost savings = 75,000
Salvage value = 20,000
Cash payback period = Initial Investment ÷ Net annual cash inflows
= [($150,000 + $12,000) ÷ ($75,000 - $15,000)]
= $162,000 ÷ $60,000
= 2.7 years
Final answer:
The cash payback period for the machine is A) 2.7 years.
Explanation:
The cash payback period is the amount of time it takes for the cash inflows from an investment to equal the initial cash outflow. To calculate the cash payback period, we need to determine when the cumulative cash inflows will equal or exceed the initial investment. In this case, the initial cost is $150,000 and the annual cost savings are $75,000. We can divide the initial cost by the annual cost savings to find the cash payback period:
Cash payback period = Initial Investment ÷ Net annual cash inflows
= [($150,000 + $12,000) ÷ ($75,000 - $15,000)]
= $162,000 ÷ $60,000
= 2.7 years
Therefore, the cash payback period for the machine is 2.7 years.

The price lists from suppliers indicate the current replacement cost of the item to be $171 each. What would be the amount reported as Merchandise Inventory on the balance sheet?
A. $2,394
B. $336
C. $4,704
D. $2,310
Answer:
D. $2,310
Explanation:
Ending inventory or Merchandise Inventory is the value of goods available for sale at the end of the accounting period valued at the lowest of total purchase cost or total replacement cost.
In this problem, total purchase cost (P) is:
[tex]P= \$165*14 = \$2,310[/tex]
Total replacement cost (R) is:
[tex]R= \$171*14 = \$2,394[/tex]
Since purchase cost is lower than replacement cost, the amount reported as Merchandise Inventory on the balance sheet should be $2,310

Explanation:
A monopoly is when there is only one firm operating in the industry. There are also no subsituites for goods and services produced by the monopoly. The monopoly sets the price for his product and earns economic profit in the long and short run.
There aren't a lot of monopolies in the real world because most goods have substitutes. Therefore, consumers can substitute the monopoly product for another product and there isn't just one firm operating in the industry.
Most markets are not monopolies in the real world because there are reasonable substitutes for most goods, which allows consumers to choose similar products from different firms. The demand for a monopolist's product constrains its price, and a monopolist cannot require consumers to purchase its product.
Explanation:In the real world, most markets are not monopolies because there are reasonable substitutes for most goods. This means that consumers have options and can choose to purchase similar products from different firms if one firm raises its prices. While a monopolist can charge any price for its product, the demand for the firm's product constrains the price. No monopolist, even one that is thoroughly protected by high barriers to entry, can require consumers to purchase its product. Because the monopolist is the only firm in the market, its demand curve is the same as the market demand curve, which is downward-sloping.

A7X Corp. just paid a dividend of $2.30 per share. The dividends are expected to grow at 15 percent for the next eight years and then level off to a growth rate of 6 percent indefinitely. If the required return is 14 percent, what is the price of the stock today?
The price of a stock is calculated by discounting the value of all future dividends to the present using the required rate of return. In this case, the dividends for the next eight years grow at a rate of 15 percent and then level off at a 6 percent growth rate indefinitely. The discounted dividends are then summed to get the present value of the stock.
Explanation:To calculate the price of a stock today, you can use the Dividend Discount Model (DDM). The DDM is based on the expectation that the price of a stock is equivalent to the present value of all its future dividends. Dividends for the next eight years can be calculated individually considering the 15 percent dividend growth. This should be followed by calculating dividend value from year 9 onward, considering the indefinite 6 percent growth from then on. The cost of each future dividend should then be discounted to the present by the required 14 percent rate of return, and all these discounted dividends should be summed up to get the present stock value.
Here is a short example of how you can find the first two future dividends. The dividend in the next year (D1) would be the current dividend multiplied by 1.15 (15 percent growth), i.e., $2.30 * 1.15 = $2.645. The dividend in the second year (D2) would be the first year's dividend multiplied by 1.15 i.e., $2.645 * 1.15 = $3.04175. Then you would discount these by the required return and calculate the present value of each dividends.

The true statement about stock splits is that each shareholder owns the same total par amount of stock before and after the split. The number of shares owned increases, but the total value of one's investment remains constant, and no journal entries are required for the stock split.
Explanation:
The subject of this question is Business, and the grade level is College. The student asks which statement is true concerning stock splits. The correct answer is (B) Each shareholder will own the same total par amount of stock before and after the split. To explain further:
During a stock split, a company divides its existing shares into multiple ones to increase the number of shares available for trading. This process increases the number of shares owned by each shareholder proportionately but does not change the overall value of one's investment.As for the par value of shares, after a split, the par value per share decreases in such a way that the total par value for the number of shares owned remains the same.Journal entries are typically not required for the stock split itself, as it does not directly impact the financial position or performance of a company.Abe Lincoln was scheduled to give a speech that was rumored to be better than his Gettysburg Address. Many citizens were planning on attending this occasion. The local bed and breakfast was renting out rooms at three times the normal rate during the time that Lincoln would be in town for his speech. Paul and Patti Smith rented a room for that amount because they were so excited to hear Lincoln speak. A day before Lincoln's speech, he was assassinated while enjoying the theatre. The bed and breakfast sought payment for the room rental, but the Smiths refused. The bed and breakfast sued for the Smiths for breach of contract. This is an example of
a. discharge by illegaility
b. discharge by destruction of subject matter
c. discharge by commercial impractibility
d. discharge by death
e. discharge by frustration of purpose
Answer:discharge by frustration of purpose
Explanation:
Discharge by frustration of purpose is a defense concept used in law in order to bring about a breach or termination of a contract.This occurs when unplanned,spontaneous or unforeseen circumstances occurs and thus,it prohibits or prevents the core reason in which the contract was being entered into at the time of the contracts agreement,with both parties fully aware of the core reason which brought about the establishment of the contract.That is to say,the primary objective in which the contract was being created upon has automatically brought about a halt of the secondary reason(which is the contract itself),having in mind that both parties were originally aware of the primary reason for entering the contract.
Here,Paul and Patti Smith rented a room an amount triple it's original price because they were so excited to hear Lincoln speak. A day before Lincoln's speech, he was assassinated.So this disappointment brought about a "discharge by frustration of purpose" by the Smiths,not forgetting that that The bed and breakfast knew it was their original intent,that's why they paid such exorbitant prices for the room rental,although it sued them.
Wriston Company is preparing its cash budget for the upcoming month. The beginning cash balance for the month is expected to be $16,000. Budgeted cash disbursements are $79,500, while budgeted cash receipts are $85,600. Wriston Company wants to have an ending cash balance of $15,000. The excess (deficiency) of cash available over disbursements for the month would be _________?
Answer:
The excess (deficiency) of cash available over disbursements for the month would be $22.100
Explanation:
To calculate the excess cash, consider the following formula:
Excess cash = Beginning cash balance + budgeted cash receipts - budgeted cash receipts.
Excess cash = 16.000 + 85.600 - 79.500 = $22.100
The First Bank of Flagstaff has issued perpetual preferred stock with a $100 par value. The bank pays a quarterly dividend of $1.65 on this stock. What is the current price of this preferred stock given a required rate of return of 11.6 percent?
Final answer:
The current price of the First Bank of Flagstaff's perpetual preferred stock, with quarterly dividends of $1.65 and a required return of 11.6%, is calculated using the formula for perpetual cash flows and is $56.90.
Explanation:
The current price of the perpetual preferred stock issued by the First Bank of Flagstaff, which pays a quarterly dividend of $1.65 and has a $100 par value, can be estimated using the present discounted value (PDV).
The required rate of return is an annual rate of 11.6%, but since dividends are paid quarterly, we need to divide this by 4 to get the quarterly rate, which is 2.9%. The price of the stock is the present value of the perpetual stream of quarterly dividends, calculated as the dividend amount divided by the quarterly rate of return.
To find the current price of the stock:
Price = Dividend per quarter / Quarterly rate of return
Price = $1.65 / (0.116/4) = $1.65 / 0.029 = $56.90
This formula represents the price of a stock based on its expected future dividends and the required rate of return.
Dream, Inc., has debt outstanding with a face value of $6 million. The value of the firm if it were entirely financed by equity would be $17.85 million. The company also has 350,000 shares of stock outstanding that sell at a price of $38 per share. The corporate tax rate is 35 percent. What is the decrease in the value of the company due to expected bankruptcy costs? (Assume that the market value of the debt is the same as the face value of the debt, because the debt has just been issued at today’s market interest rate, that the debt is perpetual, and that in this economy corporate taxes as well as financial distress costs exist.)
Answer:
$650,000
Explanation:
For computing the decrease in the expected bankruptcy costs, first we have to determine the total firm value in each case which is shown below:
Total firm value = Equity + Debt × corporate tax rate
= $17,850,000 + $6,000,000 × 0.35
= $17,850,000 + $2,100,000
= $19,950,000
Now the total firm value based on market share
= Equity + Debt
= 350,000 shares × $38 + $6,000,000
= $13,300,000 + $6,000,000
= $19,300,000
The difference would be
= $19,950,000 million - $19,300,000
= $650,000

Dividends are:Multiple Choicepayable at the discretion of a firm's president.treated as a tax-deductible expense of the issuing firm.paid out of aftertax profits..paid only to preferred stockholders.only partially taxable to high-income individual shareholders.
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "C": paid out of aftertax profits.
Explanation:
A dividend is a cash distribution by a company to its shareholders. It is a payment made as a bonus to investors from publicly listed firms or funds for putting their money into the project. They can be paid either in cash or in stocks or sometimes in other forms of property only when the aftertax earnings have been calculated.
New Gadgets is growing at a very fast pace. As a result, the company expects to pay annual dividends of $0.55, 0.80, and $1.10 per share over the next three years, respectively. After that, the dividend is projected to increase by 5 percent annually. The last annual dividend the firm paid was $0.40 a share. What is the current value of this stock if the required return is 16 percent?
Answer:
= $8.50
Explanation:
First, calculate the dividend per year;
D1 = 0.55
D2= 0.80
D3= 1.10
D4= D3(1+g); 1.10(1.05)= 1.155
Next, find the PV of each dividend given a rate of 18%
PV (D1) =0.55 / (1.16) = 0.4741
PV (D2) = 0.80 / (1.16^2) = 0.5945
PV (D3) = 1.10 / (1.16^3) = 0.7047
PV(D4 onwards) = [tex]\frac{\frac{1.155}{0.16-0.05} }{1.16^{3} }[/tex] = 6.7269
Next, sum up the PVs to calculate the price;
=0.4741 + 0.5945 + 0.7047 + 6.7269
= 8.50
Therefore, the current value of this stock is $8.50
