The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act introduced a large amount of government spending into the economy—$789 billion! Suppose the marginal propensity to consume in the United States is 0.85. How much would the program increase total spending in the economy?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$5,262.63

Explanation:

The computation of the program increase in total spending in economy is shown below:

But before that we need to find out the government spending multiplier is '

= 1 ÷ (1 - MPC)

= 1 ÷ (1 - 0.85)

= 6.67

Now

The increase in total spending is

= increase in spending × spending multiplier

= $789 billion × 6.67

= $5,262.63

Hence it would be increased by $5,262.63

You are scheduled to receive $35,000 in two years. When you receive it, you will invest it for 6 more years at 7 percent per year. How much will you have in 8 years?

Answers

Answer:

$52,526

Explanation:

In two years i have $35,000.

the amount  invested thus the Principle amount is  $35,000

Pv = $35,000

r = 7 %

PMT = $0

n = 6

Fv = ?

Note that The 8 th year is the sixth year of this investment.

FV = PV × (1 + r) n

     = $35,000 × ( 1 + 0.07) 6

     = $52,525.56

     = $52,526

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?

Answers

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

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. %

Answers

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%

Clarissa 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?

Answers

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  

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

Answers

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

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

Answers

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.

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.

Answers

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.

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?

Answers

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

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). Sales on account for July and August were $200,000 and $240,000, respectively. Current liabilities as of September 1 include $40,000 of accounts payable incurred in August for manufacturing costs. All selling and administrative expenses are paid in cash in the period they are incurred. An estimated income tax payment of $55,000 will be made in October. Bridgeport’s regular quarterly dividend of $25,000 is expected to be declared in October and paid in November. Management desires to maintain a minimum cash balance of $50,000.

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.

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:

Answers

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

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.

Answers

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

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?

Answers

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

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?

Answers

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.

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

Answers

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.

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.)

Answers

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

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

Answers

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%

Answers

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%.

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.

Answers

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
