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 Pennington Corporation issued a new series of bonds on January 1, 1985. The bonds were sold at par ($1,000); had a 12% coupon; and mature in 30 years, on December 31, 2014. Coupon payments are made semiannually (on June 30 and December 31). a. What was the YTM on January 1, 1985?
Answer:
The YTM on January 1, 1985 was 6.00%.
Explanation:
The YTM is the interest rate used to determine the Present Value of Coupons and Principle and can be found as follows :
PV = $1,000
Pmt = ($1,000 × 12 %) / 2 = - $60
P/yr = 1
n = 30 × 2 = 60
Fv = - $1,000
YTM = ?
Using a Financial Calculator, the YTM is 6.00%
Therefore, the YTM on January 1, 1985 was 6.00%.

34%5. Compute the net present value for this machine using a discount rate of 3% and assuming that cash flows occur at each year-end.
$1,348,316Explanation:
machine's cost $800,000
useful life 4 years, with $52,000 salvage value
depreciation per year = ($800,000 - $52,000) / 4 years = $187,000
net income = $2,640,000 - $512,000 - $704,000 - $187,000 - $656,000 - $192,000 = $389,000 x 0.7 = $272,300
net cash flow = $272,300 + $187,000 = $459,300
payback period = $800,000 / $459,300 = 1.74 years
accounting rate of return = $272,300 / $800,000 = 34%
NPV = -$800,000 + ($459,300 x 3.7171 annuity factor) + ($511,300/1.03⁵) = -$800,000 + $1,707,264 + $441,052 = $1,348,316
On January 1, 20X7, Server Company purchased a machine with an expected economic life of five years. On January 1, 20X9, Server sold the machine to Patron Corporation and recorded the following entry:
Cash 45,000
Accumulated Depreciation 28,000
Machine 70,000
Gain on Sale of Equipment 3,000
Patron Corporation holds 75 percent of Server's voting shares. Server reported net income of $50,000, and Patron reported income from its own operations of $100,000 for 20X9. There is no change in the estimated economic life of the equipment as a result of the intercorporate transfer. Based on the preceding information, in the preparation of the 20X9 consolidated income statement, machine will be what amount and will it be debited or credited in the consolidation entry?
Answer:
Consolidation entry is given below
Explanation:
Consolidated Entry DEBIT CREDIT
Machinery(w) $42,000
Loss on purchase $3,000
Cash $45,000
NOTE: We will record a loss in consolidation entry because the consideration paid is greater than the machinery's carrying value.
Working
Carrying value = Net book value - Accumulated Depreciation
Carrying value = $70,000 - $28,000
Carrying value = $42,000
Suppose a ten firm industry has total sales of $35 million per year. The largest firm have sales of $10 million, the third largest firm has sales of $4 million, and the fourth largest firm has sales of $2 million. If fifth through tenth largest firms combined have annual sales of $12 million, the fourfirm concentration ratio for this industry is
Answer:
0.66
Explanation:
the fourfirm concentration ratio is the sum of the concentration ratio of the four largest firms in the industry.
The sales of the second largest firm = $35 million - ( $10 million + $4 million+ $2 million + $12 million ) = $7 million
concentration ratio of firm 1 = $10 million / $35 million = 0.29
concentration ratio of firm 2 = $7 million / $35 million = 0.2
concentration ratio of firm 3 = $4 million / $35 million = 0.11
concentration ratio of firm 4 = $2 million / $35 million = 0.06
Adding the ratios together = 0.66
Power Manufacturing recorded operating data for its shoe division for the year. Sales $1,500,000 Contribution margin 300,000 Controllable fixed costs 180,000 Average total operating assets 600,000 How much is controllable margin for the year
Answer:
Controllable margin for the year is $120,000.
Explanation:
Controllable margin refers to contribution margin minus controllable fixed costs. Controllable margin is usually employed to assess the performance of managers because all the costs that the profit center manager can control are included in the calculation of controllable margin.
Based on the explanation above, controllable margin for this question can therefore be calculated as follows:
Controllable margin = Contribution margin - Controllable fixed costs = $300,000 - $180,000 = $120,000
Therefore, controllable margin for the year is $120,000.
One of your customers is delinquent on his accounts payable balance. You’ve mutually agreed to a repayment schedule of $500 per month. You will charge 1.2 percent per month interest on the overdue balance.
If the current balance is $11,000, how long will it take for the account to be paid off? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
It will take approximately 25.70 months for the the account to be paid off.
Explanation:
Assuming the customer pays at the end of every month, the relevant formula to use is therefore the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:
PV = P * [{1 - [1 / (1 + r)]^n} / r] …………………………………. (1)
Where;
PV = Present value or current balance = $11,000
P = Monthly repayment = $500
r = interest rate = 1.2%, or 0.012
n = number of months = ?
Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve for n, we have:
11,000 = 500 * [{1 - [1 / (1 + 0.012)]^n} / 0.012]
11,000 / 500 = {1 - [1 / (1 + 0.012)]^n} / 0.012
22 * 0.012 = 1 - 0.988142292490119^n
0.264 = 1 - 0.988142292490119^n
0.988142292490119^n = 1 - 0.264
0.988142292490119^n = 0.736
Loglinearizing both sides, we have:
n * log (0.988142292490119) = log (0.736)
n = log (0.736) / log (0.988142292490119)
n = -0.133122185662501 / -0.00518051250378013
n = 25.70
Therefore, it will take approximately 25.70 months for the the account to be paid off.
How much are you willing to pay for one share of Jumbo Trout stock if the company just paid a $0.70 annual dividend, the dividends increase by 2.5 percent annually, and you require a 10 percent rate of return
Answer:
$9.57 per stock
Explanation:
using the dividend discount model to find the stock's current price (P₀):
P₀ = Div₁ / (Re - g)
Div₁ = $0.70 x 1.025 = $0.7175Re = 10%g = 2.5%P₀ = $0.7175/ (10% - 2.5%) = $0.7175/ 7.5% = $9.5667 ≈ $9.57 per stock
A stock has an expected return of 12.15 percent, its beta is 1.31, and the expected return on the market is 10.2 percent. What must the risk-free rate be
Answer:
Rf=risk-free rate=3.91%
Explanation:
E(R) = Rf + ß( Rmarket - Rf )
E(R)= Expected return =12.15%=0.1215
Rf= Risk free rate = ?
ß = Beta = 1.31
Rmarket = Expected return of market = 10.2 %= 0.102
Changing to fraction before solving
0.1215= Rf + 1.31(0.102- rf)
0.1215= Rf +0.13362-1.31Rf
0.13362-0.1215= -Rf+1.3Rf
0.01212=0.31Rf
Rf= 0.01212/0.31= 0.03909 x 100%= 3.909% =3.91%
or Solving directly
12.15= Rf +1.31(10.2-Rf)
12.15= Rf +13.362 -1.31Rf
13.362 -12.15=-Rf + 1.31Rf
1.212= 0.31Rf
Rf =3.909% round off to 3.91%

"A dealer buys 10,000 shares of ABC common at $15 for its inventory. One week later the stock is quoted at $18 - $19, and a customer buys 100 shares from the dealer at a net price of $20. Under the FINRA 5% Policy, a fair and reasonable mark-up is based upon which price?"
Answer: c. $19
Explanation:
Under the FINRA 5% Policy, a fair and reasonable mark-up or commission is based upon the current market price of the stock not how much the dealer bought it for or rather their cost. As such, when the customer buys, which was the case in this scenario, the mark-up is charged on the inside ask price which in this case is $19.
Were the customer to be selling, any mark-downs will be charged on the inside bid price which in this case is $18.

You sold meals and your clients paid you in cash.a. Galaxy Sales has sales of $746,700, cost of goods sold of $603,200, and inventory of $94,300. How long on average does it take the firm to sell its inventory
Answer:
days of inventory on hand if 360 days is used = 360 / 6.396607 = 56.28 days
days of inventory on hand if 365 days is used = 365 / 6.396607 = 57.06 days
Explanation:
We are to determine the days of inventory on hand
days of inventory on hand = number of days in a period / inventory turnover
inventory turnover = cost of goods sold / inventory - $603,200 / $94,300 = 6.396607
days of inventory on hand if 360 days is used = 360 / 6.396607 = 56.28 days
days of inventory on hand if 365 days is used = 365 / 6.396607 = 57.06 days
10. Security X has expected return of 12% and standard deviation of 20%. Security Y has expected return of 15% and standard deviation of 27%. If the two securities have a correlation coefficient of 0.7, what is their covariance
Answer: 0.0378
Explanation:
The Covariance of securities refer to the relationship between two securities in terms of their movement together. A postie covariance means that securities usually move in the same direction while a negative means that they move in opposite directions. It can therefore be useful in portfolio diversification.
The formula is;
= Standard deviation of X * Standard deviation of Y * Correlation Coefficeint
= 20% * 27 * 0.7
= 0.0378

Target ROI is 19% Invested Capital is $569,512 Full Cost per unit $1,124 Expected sales volume is 959 units. If the company prices each unit to earn the target ROI, what amount of profit would be added to the cost of each unit?
Answer:
The amount of profit to be added to the cost of each unit = $112.83
Explanation:
Profit is the difference between the selling price per unit and full cost per unit. To determine the the amount of profit to be added , we will divide the total return on invested capital by the number of units to be produced and sold. This is given below as follows:
Target return = ROI (%) × Invested capital
= 19% × 569,512 = 108,207.28
Profit per unit = Total return/Number of units
= $108,207.28 /959 units
= $112.83 per unit
Selling price per unit = Full cost per unit + profit per unit
= 1,124 + 112.83 = 1,237.66 (this is not required anyway)
The amount of profit to be added to the cost of each unit = $112.83
The amount of profit that would be added to the cost of each unit is $112.83 that should be come after calculating the target return.
Calculation of the amount of profit:Before that the following calculations need to be done
Target return = ROI (%) × Invested capital
= 19% × 569,512
= 108,207.28
Now
Profit per unit = Total return/Number of units
= $108,207.28 /959 units
= $112.83 per unit
hence, The amount of profit that would be added to the cost of each unit is $112.83.

Tri Fecta, a partnership, had revenues of $373,000 in its first year of operations. The partnership has not collected on $45,200 of its sales and still owes $38,700 on $170,000 of merchandise it purchased. There was no inventory on hand at the end of the year. The partnership paid $27,100 in salaries. The partners invested $41,000 in the business and $25,000 was borrowed on a five-year note. The partnership paid $2,250 in interest that was the amount owed for the year and paid $8,000 for a two-year insurance policy on the first day of business. Ignore income taxes. Compute the cash balance at the end of the first year for Tri Fecta.
Answer:
Cash balance = $225,150
Explanation:
Cash balance can be calculated by calculating the difference of cash inflows and cash outflows
Cash inflow
Investment $41,000
Borrowed $25,000
Cash collection(w) $327,800
Total Collection $393,800
Less:
Cash outflow
Merchandise(w) $131,300
Salaries paid $27,100
Interest paid $2,250
Insurance paid $8,000
Total cash paid $168,650
Cash Balance = Total Collection - Total Cash paid
Cash balance = $393,800 - $168,650
Cash balance = $225,150
Working
Cash collection = The partnership has not collected on $45,200 of its sales
Cash collection = Sales - 45,200
Cash collection = $373,000 - $45,200
Cash collection = $327,800
Merchandise = Tri Fecta still owes $38,700 on $170,000 of merchandise it purchased
Merchandise = $170,000 - $38,700
Merchandise = $131,300

g If the Fed is concerned about a possible recession, it ________ the federal funds rate and, in response, longterm interest rates ________ by a ________ amount than the change in shortterm rates. A. lowers; increase; smaller B. lowers; decrease; smaller C. raises; decrease; larger D. raises; increase; smaller E. raises; increase; larger
Answer:
The Fed
Concern about possible recession:
E. raises; increase; larger
Explanation:
The federal funds rate is a short-term monetary policy tool that the Federal Reserve deploys to control expansionary or recessionary economic conditions. It is the interest rate that Federal Reserve allows banks with excess to charge other banks that need to borrow to shore up their deficits. This interest rate is a short-term rate when compared to the long-term interest rates that banks charge consumers of its products and services. The long-term interest rates are affected by the inflation rates.

On July 9, Mifflin Company receives a $10,400, 90-day, 8% note from customer Payton Summers as payment on account. What entry should be made on July 9 to record receipt of the note
Answer: Debit Notes Receivable $10,400; credit Accounts Receivable $10,400.
Explanation:
Mifflin Company is receiving the note back from Payton Summers which means that Payton Summers intends to settle their account. The correct entry to record therefore is one that closes off the Notes Receivable account by debiting it as it was on a credit balance.
The other account would be the Accounts Receivable account which would need to be credited by the amount owed to close off the account as it was on a debit balance as Accounts Receivables are when customers are still owing.
Stock Y has a beta of .9 and an expected return of 11.2 percent. Stock Z has a beta of .5 and an expected return of 7.2 percent. What would the risk-free rate have to be for the two stocks to be correctly priced
Answer:
Required risk free rate for two stocks to be correctly priced would be 2.20%.
Explanation:
In order to determine this, the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula is used as follows:
Rs = Rf + (Beta * MR) .................................... (1)
Where;
For Stock Y:
Rs = Expected return on stock = 11.2%, or 0.112
Rf = Risk free return = ?
Beta = 0.9
MR = Market risk premium = ?
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
0.112 = Rf + (0.9 * MR) ................................. (2)
For Stock Z:
Rs = Expected return on stock = 7.2%, or 0.072
Rf = Risk free return = ?
Beta = 0.5
MR = Market risk premium = ?
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
0.072 = Rf + (0.5 * MR) ................................. (3)
If we deduct equation (3) from equation (2) and solve for MR, we have:
(0.112 - 0.072) = (Rf - Rf) + (0.9MR - 0.5MR)
0.04 = 0 + 0.4MR
MR = 0.04 / 0.4
MR = 0.10, or 10%
Substituting MR = 0.01 into equation (2) and solve for Rf, we have:
0.112 = Rf + (0.9 * 0.10)
0.112 = Rf + 0.09
Rf = 0.112 - 0.09
Rf = 0.022, or 2.20%
Therefore, required risk free rate for two stocks to be correctly priced would be 2.20%.
Use the information provided below to answer the following question (same for set of 5 questions). Nash began April with accounts receivable of $49,000 and a credit balance in Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts of $1,000. They made $500,000 in credit sales (sales on account) during April. Collections from customers totaled $493,003. One customer, frank Jones, could not pay his $1, 200 account receivable. On April 7, he negotiated to exchange his past-due account for a $1, 200, 4%, 90-day note receivable. Historically, 1% of credit sales have prove uncollectible. During April, 3375 of old accounts receivable were written off as uncollectible.
The necessary adjusting entry at April 30 would include:
a) Debit to Interest Receivable, $11, 84
b) Credit to Interest Payable, $48.00
c) Debit to Note Receivable, $3.02
d) Credit to Interest Revenue, $3.02
e) Both C and D.
Answer:
d) Credit to Interest Revenue, $3.02
Explanation:
beginning balance of accounts receivable $49,000
allowance for doubtful accounts $1,000
net credit sales $500,000
collections on accounts receivable $493,003
$6,997
Frank Jones:
Dr Notes receivable 1,200
Cr Accounts receivable 1,200
Write offs:
Dr Allowance for doubtful accounts 3,375
Cr Accounts receivable 3,375
the adjusting entry in this question refers to the notes payable from frank Jones:
we must determine the interest revenue for the month of April = $1,200 x 0.04 x (23 days/365 days) = $3.02
the journal entry should be:
April 30, accrued interest from notes receivable
Dr Interest receivable 3.02
Cr Interest revenue 3.02 ⇒ OPTION D
A corporate bond pays 3% of its face value once per year. If this $4 comma 000 10-year bond sells now for $4 comma 450, what yield will be earned on this bond? Assume the bond will be redeemed at the end of 10 years for $4 comma 000.
Answer:
The answer is 1.76%
Explanation:
N(Number of periods) = 10 years
I/Y(Yield to maturity) = ?
PV(present value or market price) = $4,450
PMT( coupon payment) = $120 (7 percent x $4,000)
FV( Future value or par value) = $4,000.
We are using a Financial calculator for this.
N= 10; PV = -4,450; PMT = 120; FV= 4,000;
CPT I/Y= 1.76
Therefore, the Yield-to-maturity of the bond is bond is 1.76%
Which of the following provisions, if included in a mandatory arbitration agreement, would not likely render it unenforceable?
A. A provision that the employee pay the costs of the arbitrator’s services.
B. A provision that gives the employer the right to choose any arbitrator.
C. A provision that requires the employee to prove his case.
D. All of the above.
Answer:
C. a provision that requires the employee to prove his case.
Explanation:
Arbitration is a form of resolving dispute outside of the court system. Here, the parties involved agrees to have their dispute settled through a third party other than a judge. Mandatory arbitration is a provision that is included in a contract , which requires concerned parties to resolve their contract dispute before an arbitrator instead of the normal court system.
In a situation where one of the parties to a contractual agreement feels cheated or the other party has not performed his term of the agreement, such may seek redress through an arbitrator. For a mandatory arbitration to be enforceable, there must be a provision that the employee pay the cost of the arbitrator's service and also a provision that the employer has the right to choose any arbitrator.
direct materials $34, direct labor $27, variable manufacturing overhead $15, fixed manufacturing overhead $43, variable selling and administrative expenses $20, and fixed selling and administrative expenses $28. Its desired ROI per unit is $31. Compute the markup percentage using absorption-cost pricing.
Answer:
Mark- up = 26.05%
Explanation:
Absorption costing is method of costing where overheads are charged to units produced using volume-based bases. e.g machine hours, labour hours e.t.c. Units are valued using full cost per unit
Full cost per unit= Direct material cost + direct labor cost + variable manufacturing overhead + fixed manufacturing overhead
Note that the selling and administrative expenses are period cost which are not to be considered as production cost, hence they are excluded.
Full cost per unit= 34 + 27 +15 +43 = 119
ROI per unit/profit per unit = 31
Mark- up under absorption costing is profit expressed as a percentage of of the full cost.
Mark- up = 31/119 × 100 = 26.05%
Mark- up = 26.05%
