Answer:
The expected amount is $34154.83
Explanation:
Lena invested the amount = $7200
$7200 invested for time period = 6 years
Second amount invested = $7500
$7500 invested for the time period = 5 years.
The expected interest rate = 15.6 %
Total amount = A=P(1+r/400)^4n
A=future value
P=present value
r=rate of interest
n=time period.
Hence
A=7200(1+15.6/400)^(4*6) + 7500(1+15.6/400)^(4*5)
= 18034.5636 + 16120.2664
= $34154.83
Situational Software Co. (SSC) is trying to establish its optimal capital structure. Its current capital structure consists of 30% debt and 70% equity; however, the CEO believes that the firm should use more debt. The risk-free rate, rRF, is 6%; the market risk premium, RPM, is 7%; and the firm's tax rate is 40%. Currently, SSC's cost of equity is 15%, which is determined by the CAPM. What would be SSC's estimated cost of equity if it changed its capital structure to 50% debt and 50% equity? Round your answer to two decimal places. Do not round intermediate steps. %
Answer:
The estimated cost of equity is 10.3%
Explanation:
Step 1: Find Levered Beta
The CAPM formula would be used here to find the Levered Beta. CAPM formula is given as under:
Ke = Rf + Beta * (MRP - Rf)
Current Cost of Equity of company is ke and is 15%,
Risk free rate is Rf and is 6%
Market risk premium is 7%
15% = 6% + Beta* (7% - 6%)
Levered Beta = 9
Step 2: Find the Unlevered Beta
As we know that existing Debt to Equity ratio is (30 / 70), we can use the following formula to calculate the unlevered beta:
Unlevered Beta = Levered Beta / (1 + (1-t) * D/E)
Simply by putting values, we have:
Unlevered Beta = 1.2 / (1 + (1 - 40%) * 30/70) = 7.16
Step 3: Calculate levered beta on new debt to equity ratio
Now
New Debt to Equity Ratio is 1 (50 / 50)
As we know that:
Levered Beta = Unlevered Beta * (1 + (1-t) * Debt / Equity)
Levered Beta = 7.16 * (1 - 40%) * 1) = 4.3
Step 4: Use CAPM formula to calculate Cost of equity on new gearing
Using CAPM formula, we have:
Ke = Rf + Beta * (MRP - Rf)
Ke = 6% + 4.3 * 1% = 10.3%

Answer:
Interest Expense $6,446,360
Interest Payable $7,000,000
Explanation:
Interest Expense for the year =
Issued amount * Effective interest rate * [tex]\frac{Remaining months in the year}{Total months in the year}[/tex]
$644,636,000 * 0.06 * 2/12 = $6,446,360
Interest Payable =
Face Value of the bond * Interest rate * [tex]\frac{Remaining months in the year}{Total months in the year}[/tex]
$600,000,000 * 0.07 * 2/12 = 7,000,000
The employer amount of FICA taxes that Red Mountain is required to pay is equal to the amount that it withholds from its employees. Assume no other payroll taxes are incurred at this time. What is Red Mountain's total expense with regards to this payroll
Answer:
$189,000
Explanation:
The computation of total expense with regards to this payroll is shown below:-
Total expense = Salaries and wages earned by employees + Employer's portion of FICA taxes
= $180,000 + $9,000
= $189,000
Therefore for computing the total expenses with regards to this payroll we simply applied the above formula and we ignore all other values as they are not relevant.
The income from operations and the amount of invested assets in each division of Beck Industries are as follows: Income from Operations Invested Assets Retail Division $138,000 $690,000 Commercial Division 138,600 770,000 Internet Division 64,500 430,000 Assume that management has established a 10% minimum acceptable return for invested assets. a. Determine the residual income for each division. Retail Division Commercial Division Internet Division Income from operations $138,000 $138,600 $64,500 Minimum acceptable income from operations as a percent of invested assets Residual income $ $ $ b. Which division has the most residual income
Answer:
a. Minimum acceptable income from operations as of 10% of invested assets
Retail Division = $690,000 * 10% = $69,000
Commercial Division = $770,000 * 10% = $77,000
Internet Division = $430,000 * 10% = $43,000
Residual Income = Income from Operation - Minimum acceptable income from operations as of 10 percent of invested assets
Retail Division Residual Income = $138,000 - $69,000
= $69,000
Commercial Division Residual Income = $138,600 - $77,000
= $61,600
Internet Division Residual Income = $64,500 - $43,000
= $21,500
b. Retail Division has the most Residual Income with the amount of $69,000

Part 1 Household consumption, which accounts for about _______% of the economy, grew at a 4.2% annualized rate during the second quarter of 2016.
Part 2 Which component of GDP would cause the largest increase in GDP if it increased by 5%
Answer:
1) Household consumption, which accounts for about 68%* of the economy, grew at a 4.2% annualized rate during the second quarter of 2016.
*Data obtained from federal government sources.
2) Since household/consumer spending (consumption) represents almost 70% of the nation's GDP, any change will cause a major change in the total GDP. E.g. if consumption increases by 5%, then the whole economy will grow by 5% x 68% = 3.4%.
The "added worker" effect would cause the labor force to __________ during a recession. Group of answer choices increase decrease remain unchanged either increase or decrease
Answer: Increase
Explanation:
The Added Worker effect refers to a scenario where more family members typically women, enter the job market when the principal breadwinner in the household becomes unemployed. This is done to increase the income streams of the household to cushion the effect of the breadwinner becoming unemployed.
In a recession, more people will lose jobs so more members of a family will join the job market looking to give their households more income streams so the labor force will increase in size.

the total credit period is 50 daysClarissa wants to fund a growing perpetuity that will pay $ 9 comma 000 per year to a local museum, starting next year. She wants the annual amount paid to the museum to grow by 6% per year. Given that the interest rate is 9%, how much does she need to fund this perpetuity?
Answer:
$300,000.00
Explanation:
The present value of a growing perpetuity can be computed using the below present value formula specifically meant for growing annuity:
Present value=cash flow/interest rate-growth rate
cash flow is the initial amount per year which is $9000
interest rate is 9%
growth rate of the annuity payment is 6%
present value=$9000/(9%-6%)=$300,000.00
Annual Worth and Capital Recovery Calculations U S. Steel is considering a plant expansion to produce austenitic, precipitation hardened, duplex, and martensitic stainless steel round bars that is expected to cost $13 million now and another $10 million 1 year from now. If total operating costs will be $1.2 million per year starting 1 year from now, and the estimated salvage value of the plant is virtually zero, how much must the company make annually in years 1 through 10 to recover its investment plus a return of 15% per year?
Answer:
$5,601,632
Explanation:
we must first calculate the present value of the required investments and the annual costs:
initial investment = $13,000,000 + $10,000,000/1.1 = $22,090,909
annual costs = $1,200,000 x 5.0188 (PV annuity factor, 15%, 10 periods) = $6,022,560
present value of initial investment + annual costs = $28,113,469
we must calculate an annuity that has a present value = $28,113,469 with a 15% discount rate and 10 years:
annuity = $28,113,469 / 5.0188 = $5,601,631.67 ≈ $5,601,632

you texpect to receive a payout from a trust fund in 3 years. The payout will be for $11000. You plan to invest the money at an annual rate of 6.5 percent until the account is worth $19000. how many years do you have to wait from today?
Answer:
11.68 years
Explanation:
For computing the number of years first we have to applied the NPER formula i.e to be shown in the attachment below:
Given that,
Present value = $11,000
Future value = $19,000
Rate of interest = 6.5%
PMT = $0
The formula is shown below:
= NPER(Rate;PMT;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after applying the above formula, the number of years is 8.68
Now after 3 years, it would be
= 8.68 + 3
= 11.68 years
Identify the number of fims present, the type of product, and the appropriate market model in the following scenario.
In a small town, there are four providers of broadband Internet access: a cable company the phone company, and two satellite companies. The Internet access offered by all four providers is of the same speed. Almost everyone in the city already has broadband, so any potential new company would have to engage in a price war with the existing companies and would be unlikely to cover its costs for years, if ever.
Answer:
No of Firms Present - 4 firms / few firms
Type of Product - Standadized Product
All the companies are offering a standadized product of broadband Internet access of the same speed.
Appropriate Market Model - Oligopoly
An Oligopoly is a concentrated market structure where a few firms dominate the market and offer the same products. Gaining entrance into this type of market is considered hard as the existing firms are already very entrenched and dislodging them will require a huge cash outlay. The Broadband internet market in this town is therefore an Oligopoly.

BPR is part of the larger discipline of ________, which consists of methods, tools, and technology to support and continuously improve business processes.
Answer:
Business process management.
Explanation:
Business process re-engineering (BPR) is part of the larger discipline of business model optimization, which consists of methods, tools, and technology to support and continuously improve business processes.
The main purpose of business process re-engineering (BPR) is to remove any unnecessary process which does not add value to a business, then to simplify and automate other processes left so as to reduce costs, cycle time, and labor.
Hence, this would ensure that the business is running smoothly without any downtime, backlogs or inefficiency.
Oriole Company had $197,000 of net income in 2019 when the selling price per unit was $152, the variable costs per unit were $90, and the fixed costs were $571,800. Management expects per unit data and total fixed costs to remain the same in 2020. The president of Oriole Company is under pressure from stockholders to increase net income by $99,200 in 2020.
Required:
a. Compute the number of units sold in 2019.
b. Compute the number of units that would have to be sold in 2020 to reach the stockholders’ desired profit .
c. Assume that Oriole Company sells the same number of units in 2020 as it did in 2019. What would the selling price have to be in order to reach the stockholders’ desired profit level?
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Net income= $197,000
Selling price per unit= $152
Unitary variable cost= $90
Fixed costs= $571,800
Desired profit= 99,200 + 197,000= $296,200
First, we need to calculate the number of units sold:
Contribution margin per unit= 152 - 90= $62
Total contribution margin= net income + fixed costs
Total contribution margin= 197,000 + 571,800= $768,800
Units sold= total contribution margin / unitary contribution margin
Units sold= 768,800/62= 12,400 units
Now, to determine the number of units to be sold, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profir) / contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= (571,800 + 296,200) / 62
Break-even point in units= 14,000 units
Finally, we need to determine the selling price for 12,400 units and the desired profit of $296,200.
12,400= 868,000 / (selling price - 90)
-1,116,000 + 12,400selling price= 868,000
12,400 selling price = 1,984,000
selling price= $160

Answer:
Ratified
Explanation:
You founded your own firm three years ago. You initially contributed $200,000 of your own money and in return you received 2 million shares of stock. Since then, you have sold an additional 1 million shares of stock to angel investors. You are now considering raising capital froma venture capital firm. This venture capital firm would invest $6 million and would receive 3 million newly issued shares in return.
Suppose you sold the 1 million shares to the angel investor for $500,000. What was the post-money valuation of your shares immediately following the angel investor's investment?
A. 1.0$ million
B. 500,000$
C. 2.5$ million
D. 2.0$ million
Answer:
A. $1.0 million
Explanation:
total shares outstanding immediately after you sold stocks to the angel investors = 2 million (your own) + 1 million (angel investors) = 3 million
the angel investors paid $500,000 for 1 million stocks, that means that your 2 million shares are worth twice as much = $500,000 x 2 = $1,000,000
the company's total value = $1,000,000 + $500,000 = $1,500,000
Bundy Car Mechanic Inc. uses a job-order costing system. The company applies all of its overhead costs to jobs using a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the year, it made the following estimates:
Direct labor-hours required to support estimated output 46,000
Fixed overhead cost $805,000
Variable overhead cost per direct labor-hour $1.00
During the year, a customer brought in her car for repairs. The following information was available with respect to the car's repairs:
Direct materials $719
Direct labor cost $177
Direct labor—hours used 7
If Bundy sets its selling prices by adding a markup percentage of 30% of its total job cost, then how much would Bundy have charged this customer for her car's repairs?
Answer:
Selling price= $1,336
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct labor-hours required to support estimated output 46,000
Fixed overhead cost $805,000
Variable overhead cost per direct labor-hour $1.00
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (805,000/46,000) + 1
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $18.5 per direct labor hour
Now, we can calculate the total cost:
Direct materials $719
Direct labor cost $177
Direct labor—hours used 7
Total cost= 719 + 177 + 18.5*7= $1,027.7
Finally, the selling price:
Selling price= 1,027.7*1.3= $1,336
A 4% loan of $20,000 is to be repaid by level annual installments. The principal in the 4th installment is $450. Find the amount of each installment.
Answer:
Explanation:
Please note that this question we have to do by hit and trail method. Every annual payment has 2 components,
Interest and Principal repayment
Interest is higher at the beginning and principal repayment is lower. We have not been given the time for the loan.
So i will tell you how to calculate the Total annual installment by hand
and then we will make table of payments to see if we are getting 450 principal repayment in month 4
We will do 3-4 iterations to get the answer
Loan Amount = 20,000
Rate = 4%
Principal repayment in year 4 = 450
Let say time = n years
Annual installment = Loan amount * ( rate * ( 1+rate ) ^n ) / ( ( 1 + rate ) ^n -1 )
assume n = 25 years
Annual installment = 20,000 * ( 0.04* ( 1.04 ) ^ 25 ) / ( ( 1.04 ) ^25 -1 ) = 1280.24
The controller of Bridgeport Housewares Inc. instructs you to prepare a monthly cash budget for the next three months. You are presented with the following budget information:
September October November
Sales $250,000 $300,000 $315,000
Manufacturing costs 150,000 180,000 185,000
Selling and administrative expenses 42,000 48,000 51,000
Capital expenditures _ _ 200,000
The company expects to sell about 10% of its merchandise for cash. Of sales on account, 70% are expected to be collected in the month following the sale and the remainder the following month (second month following sale). Depreciation, insurance, and property tax expense represent $50,000 of the estimated monthly manufacturing costs. The annual insurance premium is paid in January, and the annual property taxes are paid in December. Of the remainder of the manufacturing costs, 80% are expected to be paid in the month in which they are incurred and the balance in the following month.
Current assets as of September 1 include cash of $40,000, marketable securities of $75,000, and accounts receivable of $300,000 ($60,000 from July sales and $240,000 from August sales).

b) When Bridgeport Housewares Inc prepares budgeted monthly cash budgets, important highlights are indicated. For instance, it becomes easier for the management of Bridgeport to know when to borrow cash to meet the minimum cash balance or in the alternative sell off some marketable securities. It is also easier for Bridgeport to understand that it can be having excess cash which should not be allowed to sit idle, but can be invested in marketable securities. The cash budgets and their preparation also help Bridgeport to be better prepared to exert the required efforts to generate sales revenue in order not to jeopardize its liquidity position. It can also help Bridgeport to understand that the capital expenditure could have been paid for instalmentally starting from September or so instead of lumping the sum in November. There are many other insights garnered from the cash budgets and their preparation.

A small town is served by many competing supermarkets, which all have the same constant marginal cost. Use the black point (plus symbol) to show the competitive price and quantity in this market. Then use the green area (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing consumer surplus in the market for groceries, and use the purple area (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing producer surplus.
Answer and Explanation:
From the diagram in the picture (please find attached) we see that the competitive price and quantity lies at the marginal cost( which the producer cannot go below). The consumer surplus lies just below the demand curve(the downward sloping curve with) and the producer surplus is above the marginal cost. Note the producer surplus is the difference between what the supplier is willing to sell and how much he actually sells, the marginal cost is the lowest the supplier would want to sell. This applies to the consumer surplus too
The producer surplus region was indicated with vertical strokes in the diagram attached
Absolute Manipulation Manufacturing's (AMM) standards anticipate that there will be 4 pounds of raw material used for every unit of finished goods produced. AMM began the month of May with 3,500 pounds of raw material, purchased 18,700 pounds for $16,830 and ended the month with 1,900 pounds on hand. The company produced 4,700 units of finished goods. The company estimates standard costs at $1.30 per pound. The materials price and efficiency variances for the month of May were:
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Standard:
Quantity= 4 pounds per unit
Cost= $1.3 per pound
Actual:
Purchase= 18,700
Used= 3,500 + 18,700 - 1,900= 20,300
Cost= 16,830/18,700= $0.9 per pound
Units produced= 4,700 units
To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Direct material price variance= (1.3 - 0.9)*18,700
Direct material price variance= $7,480 favorable
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
Direct material quantity variance= (4*4,700 - 20,300)*1.3
Direct material quantity variance= $1,950 unfavorable

Neutrino Industries stock trades at $49 per share and there are 120 million shares outstanding. The management would like to raise $400 million in an SEO. If the underwriter charges 6% of gross proceeds, how many shares must it sell?
Answer:
Neutrino Industries must sell 8.68 million shares to raise $400 million.
Explanation:
To calculate this, let B represents the number of shares Neutrino Industries must sell. Therefore, we have:
Gross proceeds = $49 * B, or $49B
Underwriter charges = 6% * $49B = $2.94B
To raise $400 million, we deduct the underwriter charges from gross proceeds and solve for B as follows:
$49B – $2.94B = $400,000,000
$46.06B = 400,000,000
B = 400,000,000 / 46.06
B = 8,684,324.79 shares, or 8.68 million shares.
Therefore, Neutrino Industries must sell 8.68 million shares to raise $400 million.
A cafeteria serving line has a coffee urn from which customers serve themselves. Arrivals at the urn follow a Poisson distribution at the rate of 3.0 per minute. In serving themselves, customers take about 14 seconds, exponentially distributed. a. How many customers would you expect to see, on average, at the coffee urn? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer: 3 customers.
Explanation:
Given the following :
Arrival rate of customers = 3 customers per minute
Service time = 14 seconds
Then if service time is 14 seconds, the service rate per minute will be 60/14 = 4.29 = 4 (nearest whole number)
Service rate = 4 customers per minute.
Number of customers at coffee urn(Nc) :
Nc = (arrival rate) /(service rate - arrival rate)
Nc = (3) / (4 - 3)
Nc = 3 / 1
Nc = 3
Therefore, average number of customers expected at coffee urn = 3
