Answers

Answer:

Option C

Number of shares outstanding after split = 150,000 units

Explanation:

A stock split occurs where a company creates additional shares in units such the total nominal value of the outstanding shares remains the same. With a stock split, the total outstanding shares increases without a change in the total nominal value while the nominal value per share reduces.

Total shares before the split = 50,000

Total outstanding shares after split

= 50,000 × 3 = 150,000

Number of shares outstanding after split = 150,000 units

____________the market school aruges that forward exchange rates do the best possible job for forecasting future spot exchange rates, so investing in exchagne rate forecasting services would be a waste of time.

Answers

Answer:

Efficient market school.

Explanation:

Efficient market school is the market school which argues that forward exchange rates do the best possible job for forecasting future spot exchange rates, so investing in exchange rate forecasting services would be a waste of time because it is impossible to have a consistent alpha generation on a risk adjusted excess returns basis as market prices are only affected by new informations.

The efficient market school also known as the efficient market hypothesis (EMH) is a hypothesis that states that asset (share) prices reflect all information and it is very much impossible to consistently beat the market.

Also, forward exchange rates are exchange rates controlling foreign exchange transactions at a specific future date or time.

Hence, according to the efficient market school it would be a waste of time investing in exchange rate forecasting services because all the information about an asset or security is already factored into their prices and as a result of the randomness of the market.

During 2016, Basler Manufacturing produced 60,000 units and sold 55,000 for $10 per unit. Variable manufacturing costs were $5 per unit. Annual fixed manufacturing overhead was $120,000 ($2 per unit). Variable selling and administrative costs were $1 per unit sold, and fixed selling and administrative costs were $30,000.

Required:
Prepare an absorption costing income statement.

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production=  60,000 units

Units sold= 55,000

Selling price per unit= $10

Variable manufacturing costs were $5 per unit.

Annual fixed manufacturing overhead was $120,000 ($2 per unit). Variable selling and administrative costs were $1 per unit sold

Fixed selling and administrative costs were $30,000.

The absorption costing method includes the unitary fixed overhead costs to the cost of goods sold.

Sales= 55,000*10= 550,000

COGS= (5 + 2)*55,000= (385,000)

Gross profit= 165,000

Total selling and administrative costs=(1*55,000)+30,000= (85,000)

Net operating income= 80,000

1. Calculate the growth rate between 2010 and 2014 for a company with the following revenue. Year Revenue 2010 735 2011 985 2012 1152 2013 1347 2014 1658 2015 1895

Answers

Answer:  230.75 (units/ year)

Explanation:

To compute the growth rate between 2010 and 2014, we use the following formula :

Growth rate = [(Revenue in 2014) -(Revenue in 2010)]÷ [Difference between 2010 and 2014]

From the table, Revenue in 2010 = 735

Revenue in 2014= 1658

Then, Growth rate = (1658 -735)÷ (2014-2010)

= 923÷  4

= 230.75

Hence, the growth rate between 2010 and 2014 =  230.75 (units/ year)

Your portfolio is comprised of 40 percent of stock X, 15 percent of stock Y, and 45 percent of stock Z. Stock X has a beta of 1.24, stock Y has a beta of 1.49, and stock Z has a beta of 0.41. What is the beta of your portfolio?

Answers

Answer:

Portfolio beta = 0.904

Explanation:

The portfolio beta is the weighted average of all the beta associated with each of the different stock making up the portfolio. The betas are weighted using the probability associated with each of the stock.  

Portfolio beta = WaRa + Wb+Rb + Wn+Rn  

W- weight of the beta, R- Stock beta -  

W- Probability of the beta, R- stock beta

Note that the sum of the probability of different outcomes should equal to one. Hence, the probability of economy being normal is

Portfolio beta = (0.4 × 1.24)  + (0.15 × 1.49) +  ( 0.45 ×0.41) =0.904

Portfolio beta = 0.904

Avril Synchronistics will pay a dividend of $ 1.40 per share this year. It is expected that this dividend will grow by 7​% each year in the future. What will be the current value of a single share of​ Avril's stock if the​ firm's equity cost of capital is 15​%?

Answers

Answer:

$18.73 per stock

Explanation:

we need to calculate the company's terminal value and we can use the dividend growth model:

P₀ = Div₁ / (Re - g)

Div₁ = $1.40 x (1 + 7%) = $1.498Re = 15%g = 7%

P₀ = $1.498 / (15% - 7%) = $1.498 / 8% = $18.725 ≈ $18.73 per stock

Stu deposited $400 in an account three years ago. Last year, he deposited $250 and plans to deposit $300 next year. The rate is 3 percent. Which one of these correctly states a portion of the formula needed to compute the future value five years from today

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Future value = Present value x (1+i)^n, where

n = number of years

I = interest rate

From the question n = 8 years for the amount $400 ,

n= 7years for $250 ,

n=4years for $300

interest = 3%= 0.03

Future value of $400 = 400 (1 + 0.03)^8 = $506.71

Future value of $ 250 = 250 (1+0.03)^7 = $307.47

Future value of $ 300 =300(1+0.03)^4 = $337.65

b. Make grease payments mandatory in order to obtain exclusive preferential treatment in a host nation.
c. Consider payment of speed money to be moral, but illegal.
d. Make bribery of foreign officials a criminal offense but not consider facilitating payments a criminal offense.
e. Make it mandatory for companies to adhere to the pollution control standards of their home country in all the nations in which they do business.

Answers

Answer: d. Make bribery of foreign officials a criminal offense but not consider facilitating payments a criminal offense.

Explanation:

In December 1997, signatories accounting for around 70% of World Trade adopted the Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials in International Business Transactions which stated that countries must install Legislative laws that would prohibit the bribing of foreign officials as well as strict penalties for parties who engage in such. This was done to ensure that the playing field was level so to speak instead of one company getting special treatment because they paid for it.

One concern however was that the Convention did not consider Facilitating Payments a criminal offence which means that it could be used as a bypass for the bribery of foreign officials to still happen.

The Polishing Department of Bonita Company has the following production and manufacturing cost data for September. Materials are entered at the beginning of the process. Production: Beginning inventory 1,580 units that are 100% complete as to materials and 30% complete as to conversion costs; units started during the period are 41,200; ending inventory of 6,600 units 10% complete as to conversion costs.


Manufacturing costs: Beginning inventory costs, comprised of $20,600 of materials and $14,674 of conversion costs; materials costs added in Polishing during the month, $186,883; labor and overhead applied in Polishing during the month, $127,600 and $257,440, respectively.

Required:
a. Compute the equivalent units of production for materials and conversion costs for the month of September.
b. Compute the unit costs for materials and conversion costs for the month.
c. Determine the costs to be assigned to the units transferred out and in process.

Answers

Answer:

a. materials =  42,780 and conversion costs = 36,840

b. materials = $4.85 and conversion costs = $10.85

c. units transferred out =   $568,026 and in process =  $39,171

Explanation:

First calculate the number of units completed and transferred out of the  Polishing Department.

Units completed and transferred out  = 1,580  + 41,200 - 6,600

                                                                 = 36,180

Calculation of equivalent units of production for materials and conversion costs for the month of September

materials

Units completed and transferred out (36,180 × 100%) = 36,180

Units of Ending Work In Process (6,600 × 100%)         =  6,600

Total equivalent units of production for materials       = 42,780

conversion costs

Units completed and transferred out (36,180 × 100%)             = 36,180

Units of Ending Work In Process (6,600 × 10%)                       =      660

Total equivalent units of production for conversion costs      = 36,840

Calculate the unit costs for materials and conversion costs for the month

Unit costs for materials = Total Cost for materials / Total equivalent units of production for materials

                                      = ( $20,600 +  $186,883) / 42,780

                                      = $4.85

Unit costs for conversion costs = Total Cost for conversion costs / Total equivalent units of production for conversion costs

                                      = ( $14,674  +  $127,600  + $257,440) /  36,840

                                      = $10.85

Total unit cost = $4.85 + $10.85

                        = $15.70

Calculate the costs to be assigned to the units transferred out and in process.

Cost units transferred out = Number of Units Transferred out × Total Unit Cost

                                             = 36,180 × $15.70

                                             =  $568,026

Cost of Units In Process Calculation :

Material Cost ( 6,600 × $4.85)       = $32,010

Conversion Costs ( 660 × $10.85) =    $7,161

Total Cost of Units In Process       =  $39,171

Many companies secure financing from various sources with various payback periods. Not all funding sources are the same, and in fact, some can come with a pretty high cost to the firm. These costs could include high interest rates, long payback periods, and increased ownership in the firm which could result in lost control.

Please analyze the funding options listed, and determine if the option is usually a short-term or long-term strategy.

a. Line of credit
b. Commercial paper
c. Trade credit Bank loan of 10 months
d. Bond
e. Stock
f. Bank loan of 20 months

Answers

Answer:

a. Line of credit - Long-term strategy

A line of credit is a long-term strategy because businesses obtain lines of credit for their use over long periods of time. The particular characteristic is that a line of credit is only used when the business decides to do so, so it works almost like a credit card.

b. Commercial paper - Short-term strategy

Commercial paper is a short-term debt that is issued by firms when they have problems to pay operating expenses. They are unsecured, and pay a specific amount of interest.

c. Trade credit Bank loan of 10 months - Short-term strategy

In financial accounting, loans that last for less than a year are categorized as short-term liabilities, therefore, a trade credit bank loan of 10 months is a short-term strategy.

d. Bond - Long-term strategy

While some bonds are issued for the short-term, the majority of them are issued for the long-term, with some of them lasting 10 years or more.

e. Stock - Long-term strategy

Buying or issuing stock is also a long-term strategy, specially because the dividend of the stock is only paid out once every year, unlike other debt instruments that pay interest immediately.

f. Bank loan of 20 months - Long-term strategy

A bank loan of more than 1 years is considered a long-term liability in financial accounting, therefore, a bank loan of 20 months is part of a long-term strategy.

Analyzing the given funding options and placing them in their right categories would be:

A. Line of credit - Long-term strategy B. Commercial paper - Short-term strategy C. Trade credit Bank loan of 10 months - Short-term strategy D. Bond - Long-term strategy E. Stock - Long-term strategy F. Bank loan of 20 months - Long-term strategy

A long term strategy is one which financial institutions use to secure their assets for the foreseeable future while a short term strategy is used for short term gains on stocks and finances.

With this in mind, we can see that there are different funding options which are short or long term as the case may be, which depends on the amount of profit which the business wants to accrue.

1. In a situation where the consumption go up from 0 to 1, this means that total utility will from 0 to 25.

Therefore the , marginal utility will be 25 (25 – 0).

2. Total utility will be 42(25+17)

3. Marginal utility will be 12 (54-42)

4. The total utility for quantity of 5 is 66, while the marginal utility is 4.

Hence the total utility will be 62 (66 – 4) while marginal utility will be 4(12-8)

6. Total utility will be 65(66-1)

B. Based on( A )above Marco already has two candy bars, which gave him a total utility of 42 this means that when we Add soda his utility would increase to 64 (42 + 22)

And in a situation where he consumes four candy bars which is 2 candy bars + another 2 extra candy bars this means his utility will be only 62.

Based on this Soda will be the preferred one

Answers

Answers:

a. Acquisition of cost of corporation =         $2,420,000

Less: Fair value of net identifiable assets = $2,050,000

Cost of good will =                                          $370,000

Note: Goods will is not amortized

b. Cost of patent purchase = $91,200

Legal life = 13 years

Estimated useful life= 8 years

Ammortization = Cost / Estimated useful life

= $91,200/8 years

=$11,400

Ammortization per annum is $11,400

Patent is purchased on 30/6/2021

Calculation of amortization for 6 months periods

Amortization for 6 months (July-December)= $11,400 * 6/12

=$5,700

Note: Amortization should be amortized on basis of their amortized value that is, 8 years.

c. Calculation of amortization cost for franchise

Cost = $250,800

Life=11

Purchased on 1/10/2021

Amortization = Cost / Estimated useful life

Sager Industries is considering an investment in equipment that will replace direct labor. The equipment has a cost of $86,000 with a $7,000 residual value and a 10-year life. The equipment will replace three employees who has an average total wages of $15,810 per year. In addition, the equipment will have operating and energy costs of $4,190 per year. Determine the average rate of return on the equipment, giving effect to straight-line depreciation on the investment.

Answers

Answer:

130.77%

Explanation:

depreciation expense per year using straight method = (purchase cost - salvage value) / useful life = ($86,000 - $7,000) / 10 = $7,900

total costs = depreciation expense + operating and energy costs = $7,900 + $4,190 = $12,090

average rate of return = total savings / total costs = $15,810 / $12,090 = 1.30769 = 130.77%

The founder of alchemy products inc. discovered a way to turn gold into lead and patented this new technology. he then formed a corporation and invested $200,000 in setting up a production plant. he believes that he could sell his patent for $50 million.
a. What are the book value and market value of the firm?
b. If there are 1 million shares of stock in the new corporation, what would be the price per share and the book value per share?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

a. What are the book value and market value of the firm?

The book value is $200,000 which is the amount invested in setting up the production plant.

The market value of the firm is the addition of the book value and the patent. This will be:

= $50,000,000 + $200,000

= $50,200,000

b. If there are 1 million shares of stock in the new corporation, what would be the price per share and the book value per share?

The book value per share is the book value divided by the outstanding shares. This will be:

= $200,000/1,000,000

= $0.2 pee share

Price per share will be:

= $50,200,000/1,000,000

= $50.2

Answers

Answer:

Cost of goods available for sale = $12,480

Explanation:

The cost of goods available for sale is the sum of the value of the opening inventory plus the cost of new purchase. The cost of new purchase would include carriage inward cost if any.

For Oriole company , the cost of goods available for sale would be computed as follows:

                                                                           $

Opening inventory                                            2,340

Purchases

June 12                5,460

June 23               4,680                                 10,140

Cost of goods available for sale                     12,480

Note that the sales made are not relevant for the purpose of determining the cost of goods available for sale. Also, the closing inventory would have been deducted from the cost of goods available for sale to arrive at the cost of goods sold should the question require it.

Mary just bought a 20-year bond with an 8% coupon rate (paid semi-annually) and $1000 par value for $1050. She is expecting an effective annual yield (EAY) of

Answers

Answer:

7.65%

Explanation:

Calculation for Mary effective annual yield (EAY)

The first step is to find the Semiannual coupon payment using this formula

Semiannual coupon payment=(Par value×Coupon rate percentage/2)

Let plug in the formula

Semiannual coupon payment =($1,000 × 8%) ÷2

Semiannual coupon payment= $80 ÷ 2 = $40

Second step is to find The total number of compounding period will be 20 years bond × The number of the compounding period er year which is 2

Hence,

The total number of compounding period will= 2 periods per year × 20 years = 40 periods.

Third step is to use the financial calculator which calculated the rate as 3.76% which means that:

Semiannual yield will be :3.76%

Therefore the Annual yield will be calculatedas = 3.76% ×2

Annual yield= 7.51%

The last step is to find the effective annual yield (EAY) using this formula

EAY = [1+(Quoted interest rate / m]m -1

Let plug in the formula

EAY = [1+(0.0751÷2)]2 -1

EAY= 7.65%.

Therefore the effective annual yield (EAY) will be 7.65%

Answers

Answer:

1. Several individuals operate the cash register using the same register drawer.  Weak Internal Control. Establishment of Responsibility Internal control violated.

Having many individuals have access to the cash register can lead to theft. Establishment of Responsibility is an internal control that calls for the minimal amount of people being able to do one task. This way issues can be traced faster.

2 .A monthly bank reconciliation is prepared by someone who has no other cash responsibilities.  Good Internal Control. Independent Internal Verification control followed.

Independent Verification occurs when a person who is an employee of a company but not related to a task, audits that task to find out if any irregularities are present. It ensures unbiased review.

3. Joe Cockrell writes checks and also records cash payment journal entries.  Weak Internal Control. Segregation of Duties Internal control violated.

Segregation of duty calls for the division of a job process into tasks that different people are to accomplish especially in relation to cash. It can help avoid fraud because people will not be able to approve payments for themselves which is what Joe Cockrell can do in this scenario. Joe can withdraw and decide not to record it.

4 .One individual orders inventory, while a different individual authorizes payments.  Good Internal Control. Segregation of Duties Internal control followed.

Segregation of duty calls for the division of a job process into tasks that different people are to accomplish especially in relation to cash. By having one individual order inventory and the other authorizing payments, fraud can be better avoided.

5 .Unnumbered sales invoices from credit sales are forwarded to the accounting department every four weeks for recording. Weak Internal Control. Documentation Procedures Internal control violated.

Documentation procedures in a company ensure that the paper trail is efficiently recorded so that transactions can be followed up speedily. By sending unnumbered sales invoices to the Accounting department as well as taking so long to do so, the company is running an inefficient documentation process that will make tracking transactions more difficult.

A perfectly competitive firm has a. A perfectly elastic demand for its products b. A perfectly inelastic demand for its products c. A downward sloping demand for its products d. None of the above

Answers

Answer: a. A perfectly elastic demand for its products

Explanation:

In a Perfect Competition, the market sets the price at which firms are able to sell their goods and services. As a result, this price that is set is equal to the demand for goods and services thereby making the Demand curve a horizontal line which signifies perfect elasticity. What this shows is that if another firm attempts to sell the same good at a higher price, they will be unable to sell.

With Price being equal to demand it will also be equal to both Marginal and Average revenue for the good because the company receives the same additional revenue for every unit sold.

If a customer is reluctant to try a new product because she's afraid it might make her ill, the company offering it is most likely facing ________ barrier.

Answers

Answer: Risk barrier

Explanation:

With every new product or innovation, there is a risk that things will not work well. This risk is divided into 4 types;

Physical risk where the product might be harmful physicallyEconomic risk depending on the cost of the productPerformance risk Social Risk where a person wonders how the public will perceive them for using the product.

The customer is facing a Physical risk barrier when she encountered the new product. As it has not been tried and tested by others, using it as a pioneer means that she will not know what she is getting into and so she worries that there is a chance it will harm her physically and make her ill.

Salty Sensations Snacks Company manufactures three types of snack foods: tortilla chips, potato chips, and pretzels. The company has budgeted the following costs for the upcoming period:

Factory depreciation $13,645
Indirect labor 33,817
Factory electricity 3,856
Indirect materials 8,010
Selling expenses 18,985
Administrative expenses 10,679
Total costs $88,992

Factory overhead is allocated to the three products on the basis of processing hours. The products had the following production budget and processing hours per case:

Budgeted Volume (Cases) Processing Hours Per Case
Tortilla chips 1,500 0.15
Potato chips 3,600 0.12
Pretzels 2,700 0.10
Total 7,800

Required:
a. Determine the single plant-wide factory overhead rate.
b. Use the factory overhead rate in (a) to determine the amount of total and per-case factory overhead allocated to each of the three products under generally accepted accounting principles.

Answers

Answer:

a. $64 per hour

b. Tortilla chips = $9.60, Potato chips = $7.68 , Pretzels = $6.40

Explanation:

Plant-wide factory overhead rate = Budgeted Overhead / Budgeted Activity

Calculation of Budgeted Overheads :

Hint : Consider only Indirect Manufacturing Costs

Factory depreciation    $13,645

Indirect labor                 $33,817

Factory electricity          $3,856

Indirect materials            $8,010

Total                             $59,328

Calculation of Budgeted Hours :

Tortilla chips (1,500 × 0.15)  = 225

Potato chips (3,600 × 0.12)  = 432

Pretzels (2,700 × 0.10 )        = 270

Total                                     = 927

Plant-wide factory overhead rate =  $59,328 / 927

                                                       =  $64 per hour

Factory overhead allocated to each of the three products :

Tortilla chips  (0.15  × $64) = $9.60

Potato chips  0.12  × $64) = $7.68

Pretzels  (0.10 × $64) = $6.40
