B. February 12.

Explanation:

The most important dates for dividends at Georia are the declaration date, The holder-of-record date, and the payment date.  The declaration date is the date that the company's directors decide to announce that dividend will be paid to stockholders of record.   The holder-of-record date is the date that a stockholders will know if he or she will receive dividend for that period, because only holders of record are paid dividends.  If a stockholder's share is not registered before that date, then the stockholder is not entitled to dividends.  The last date is, of course, the payment date.  However, in accounting for the dividend transaction, only two dates are important: the declaration date and the payment date.

E. Now assume that you plan to purchase an outstanding Pennington bond on March 1, 2010, when the going rate of interest given its risk was 15.5%. How large a check must you write to complete the transaction?

Answers

Answer:

A. What was the YTM on January 1, 1987?

since the bonds were sold at par, the YTM = coupon rate = 12%

B. What was the price of the bonds on January 1, 1992, 5 years later, assuming that interest rates had fallen to 10%?

0.5 = {60 + [(1,000 - m)/50]} / [(1,000 + m)/2]

25 + 0.025m = 60 + 20 - 0.02m

0.045m = 55

m = 55/0.045 = $1,222.22

C. Find the current yield, capital gains yield, and total return on January 1, 1992, given the price as determined in part b.

current yield = coupon / market price = $120 / $1,222.22 = 9.82%

capital gains yield = (P₁ - P₀)/P₀ = ($1,222.22 - $1,000)/$1,000 = 22.22%

total return = [(P₁ - P₀) + D]/P₀ = [($1,222.22 - $1,000) + $600] /$1,000 = 82.22%

D. On July 1, 2010, 6 1/2 years before maturity, Pennington's bonds sold for $916.42. What were the YTM, the current yield, the capital gains yield, and the total return at that time?

YTM = {60 + [(1,000 - 916.42)/13]} / [(1,000 + 916.42)/2] = 66.965 / 958.21 = 6.98856 x 2 (annual yield) = 13.98%

current yield = coupon / market price = $120 / $916.42 = 13.09%

capital gains yield = (P₁ - P₀)/P₀ = ($916.42 - $1,000)/$1,000 = -8.36%

total return = [(P₁ - P₀) + D]/P₀ = [($916.42 - $1,000) + $2,820] /$1,000 = 273.64%

E. Now assume that you plan to purchase an outstanding Pennington bond on March 1, 2010, when the going rate of interest given its risk was 15.5%. How large a check must you write to complete the transaction?

accrued interest = $60 x 2/6 = $20

0.075 = {60 + [(1,000 - m)/13]} / [(1,000 + m)/2]

0.03875(1,000 + m) = 136.92 - 0.07692m

38.75 + 0.03875m = 136.92 - 0.07692m

0.11567m = 98.17

m = 98.17 / 0.11567 = 848.71 + 20 (accrued interest) = $868.71

How much can the industry produce in the Core segment the next year? Consider only products primarily in the Core segment last year. Ignore current inventories. Figures in thousands (000).

Answers

Answer:

HELLO SOME PARTS OF THE QUESTION IS MISSING ATTACHED BELOW IS THE MISSING PARTS

answer : 13156

Explanation:

Considering only products primarily in the core segment last year.

they are : Ant, cone, cute,Drat and Daze

From the question it is assumed that Chester's product Cute and other products in its Core segment will be increased  by 10% this year hence we will calculate the 10% increase of each core product and add it to its initial value

For ANT (1550)

will become = 1550 + ( 10% * 1550 ) = 1705

For CONE ( 1050 )

will become = 1050 + ( 10% * 1050 ) = 1155

For Cute ( 1300 )

will become =  1300 + (10% * 1300 ) = 1430

For Drat ( 1040 )

will become = 1040 + ( 10% * 1040 ) = 1144

For DAZE ( 1040 )

will become = 1040 + ( 10% * 1040 ) = 1144

The total capacity of the current year = 1705 + 1155 + 1430 + 1144 + 1144 = 6578

Hence the Total capacity the Industry will produce in the core next year still applying the 10% increment will be = 2 * 6578 = 13156

If BBQ needs $150 million for a new manufacturing facility, what is the cost when flotation costs are considered

Answers

Answer:

$172,215,844 is the cost when flotation costs are considered

Explanation:

flotation

Weighted average flotation cost = {(Flotation cost debt * Weight debt) + (Flotation cost equity * Weight equity)

= (8% * 0.30) + (15%  * 0.70)

=0.024 + 0.105

= 0.129

= 12.9%

Calculation of the cost of funds

Cost of funds = Amount raised / (1 - Weighted average floatation cost)

= $150,000,000 / (1-0.129)

= $150,000,000 / (0.871)

=$172,215,844

Therefore, the cost of raising fund is $172,215,844

g The Fed makes an open market operation purchase of​ $200,000. The currency drain ratio is 33.33 percent and the desired reserve ratio is 10 percent. By how much does the quantity of money​ increase?

Answers

Answer: $618,000

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the Fed makes an open market operation purchase of​ $200,000 and that the currency drain ratio is 33.33 percent and the desired reserve ratio is 10 percent.

We first have to calculate the money multiplier which will be:

= (1 + the currency drain ratio)/( the currency drain ratio + the reserve ratio)

= (1 + 33.33%)/(33.33% + 10%)

= ( 1 + 0.33)/(0.33 + 0.1)

= 1.33/0.43

= 3.09

The quantity of money​ increase will be:

= 3.09 × $200,000

= $618,000

g Profit maximazation for a monopolist and a perfect competitor occurs where marginal revenue equals marginal cost. At this​ profit-maximizing output, the monopolist will charge a price​ ________ marginal revenue and a perfect competitor will charge a price​ ________ marginal revenue.

Answers

Answer: Higher than; Equal to

Explanation:

Profit maximazation for a monopolist and a perfect competitor occurs where marginal revenue equals marginal cost.

The Marginal Revenue curves are different for either of them though and this impacts what price they sell at. This is because the price the good will be sold at depends on where the maximising output touches the demand curve.

The Monopolist has a Marginal Revenue curve that is lower than the Demand Curve. Therefore the point where Marginal Revenue and Marginal Cost intersect, will not be on the demand curve but lower than it. The price charged will therefore be the point where the maximising output touches the Demand Curve.

The Perfectly Competitive Firm however is in a market where Price is equal to the Demand curve and equal to the Marginal Revenue curve as well. The point where the Marginal Cost intersects with Marginal Revenue will also be the point where the maximising output touches the Demand curve so the price will be the same as the Marginal Revenue.

Praxis Corp. is expected to generate a free cash flow (FCF) of $7,360.00 million this year (FCF₁ = $7,360.00 million), and the FCF is expected to grow at a rate of 20.20% over the following two years (FCF₂ and FCF₃). After the third year, however, the FCF is expected to grow at a constant rate of 2.46% per year, which will last forever (FCF₄). Assume the firm has no nonoperating assets. If Praxis Corp.’s weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is 7.38%, what is the current total firm value of Praxis Corp.? (Note: Round all intermediate calculations to two decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

$202,216.54 million

Explanation:

FCF₁ = $7,360 million

FCF₂ = $8,846.72 million

FCF₃ = $10,633.76 million

FCF₄ = $10,910.24 million and will continue to grow at 2.46%

we must first determine the terminal value at year 3:

terminal value = $10,910.24 million / (7.38% - 2.46%) = $221,752.85 million

firm's current total value = $7,360 million / 1.0738 + $8,846.72 million / 1.0738² + $10,633.76 million / 1.0738³ + $221,752.85 / 1.0738³ = $6,854.16 + $7,672.48 + $8,588.49 + $179,101.41 = $202,216.54

b. a small number of producers
c. firms selling a similar but differentiated good
d. significant barriers to entry

Answers

Answer:

Option “A” is the assumption of perfect competition while options B, C, and D are not the assumption of perfect competition.

Explanation:

Option A, is the assumption of perfect competition because, in the perfect competition, the industry decides the price with the help of market forces demand and supply. Moreover, this determined price is followed by firms in the industry. While the other options are not assumed in perfect competition because there are a large number of firms that can be seen in perfect competition and these firms sell homogeneous goods. Furthermore, the firms are free to enter and exit the market.

The following assumption are made under perfect competition:

price-taking behavior

The following assumption are not made under perfect competition:

small number of producers firms selling a similar but differentiated good significant barriers to entry

Perfect competition is a market where there are many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. There are no barriers to the entry or exit of firms into the market. An example of perfect competition is the market for apples. All apples are identical and there are many farmers who sell apples.

The market price of goods in a perfect competition is set by the market forces. So, buyers and sellers are price takers. They take the price as determined by the market forces. There is perfect information in a perfect competition.

Answers

Answer:

PV= $17,365,776.86

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cf= 2,200,000

Number of years= 20

Discount rate= 12%

Additional lump sum= 9,000,000

First, we need to calculate the future value using the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual cash flow

FV= {2,200,000*[(1.12^20) - 1]} / 0.12 + 9,000,000

FV= $167,515,373.4

Now, the present value:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 167,515,373.4/1.12^20

PV= $17,365,776.86

Answers

Answer: False

Explanation:

Moral Hazard refers to the tendency of people or entities to take on more risk if they know they will be saved from it.

With the Forest Service now making locator beacons available for hikers, the result will be that more hikers will be emboldened to hike further in the wilderness or into more dangerous areas knowing that should they get in trouble, the rescue teams will locate them faster. It will also mean that more hikers will start coming to the forest because they feel they can hike and be found easily if they get into trouble.

These 2 things will mean that the Forest Service will both have to conduct more rescue missions and maybe hire more personnel as a result of the increased number both of which will increase their costs not reduce them.

The answer is "70 units".

Explanation:

In the given question some equation is missing which can be defined as follows:

[tex]C = 1.5Q^2+40Q\\\\P=320-0.5Q[/tex]  

Monopolistic functions are used where Marginal Profit = Marginal Cost where marginal revenue and marginal cost stand for the MR and  MC.

Finding the value of MR :

[tex]\ MR = \frac{\partial TR}{\partial Q} \\\\[/tex]

       [tex]= \frac{\partial PQ}{\partial Q} \\\\= \frac{\partial (320-0.5Q)Q}{\partial Q}[/tex]

       [tex]= \frac{\partial (320Q -0.5Q^2)}{\partial Q}\\\\ = \frac{\partial Q (320 -0.5Q)}{\partial Q}\\\\ \ by \ solving \ we \ get \\\\ = 320 - Q...(1)[/tex]

Calculating the value of the MC:

[tex]MC = \frac{\partial TC}{\partial Q} \\[/tex]

        [tex]=\frac{\partial (1.5Q^2 + 40Q)}{\partial Q} \\\\=\frac{\partial Q (1.5Q + 40)}{\partial Q}\\\\ \ by \ solve \ value \\\\ = 3Q + 40....(2)[/tex]

compare the above equation (i) and (ii):

[tex]\to 320 -Q = 3Q+40\\\\\to 320 -40 = 3Q+ Q\\\\\to 280 = 4Q\\\\\to 4Q =280 \\\\\to Q= \frac{280}{4}\\\\\to Q= 70 \\[/tex]

The variable costing method incorporates all variable production costs (direct material, direct labor, and variable overhead).

We need to calculate the net operating income:

Sales= 120,000*40= 4,800,000

Total variable cost= (20 + 10)*120,000= (3,600,000)

A country in South America is experiencing high inflation, around 15% annually, and high unemployment, around 25%. According to the AD/AS model, which of the following is most likely to explain this outcome?
a. A positive real shock
b. A positive aggregate demand shock
c. A negative aggregate demand shock
d. A negative real shock

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the option D: A negative real shock

Explanation:

To begin with, in the case presented where the economy has suffered from high inflation and unemployment rates then the most likely situation that could have happened before to explain this outcome is that the country and its economy were harmed badly by a negative real shock. This tend to happen when the aggregate supply is low and this one tends to decline rapidly affecting the economy in its whole due to the fact that the sellers are now producing less of the products and services and therefore the consumption and the real GDP decreases dramastically.

It costs a bakery $3 to sell a single cake. This bakery makes $7 in revenue from each cake it sells. Assume this bakery sells 25 cakes. What is its total profits

Answers

Answer:

$100

Explanation:

The revenue is the total amount the company receives for the sale of products and the profit is the amount left after the costs are subtracted. Because of that, to calculate the profit you have to subtract  the costs from the revenue generated:

Profit= Revenue-costs

Profit= (7*25)-(3*25)

Profit=175-75

Profit= 100

According to this, the total profit is $100.

calculate the net present value of a business deal that cost $2500 today and will return $1500 at the end of this year. use interest rate of 13%

Answers

Answer:

NPV= -$1,172.57

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Initial investment= $2,500

Cash flow= $1,500

Discount rate= 13%

To calculate the net present value (NPV), we need to use the following formula:

NPV= -Io + ∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]

NPV= -2,500 + (1,500/1.13)

NPV= -1,172.57

Investors would like to earn a 16 % return on the​ company's $ 115 million of assets. The company incurs primarily fixed costs to groom the runs and operate the lifts. WinterDreams projects fixed costs to be $ 35 comma 600 comma 000 for the ski season. The resort serves 800 comma 000 skiers and snowboarders each season. Variable costs are $ 8 per guest.​ Currently, the resort has such a favorable reputation among skiers and snowboarders that it has some control over the lift ticket prices.

Required:
a. Would Mountain Point emphasize target pricing or cost-plus pricing? Why?
b. If other resorts in the area charge $66 per day, what price should Mount Snow charge?

Answers

Answer:

a. Would Mountain Point emphasize target pricing or cost-plus pricing? Why?

They emphasize cost plus pricing because the investors are seeking a desired rate of return on their investment and they do it by adding the desired profit margin to their costs.

b. If other resorts in the area charge $66 per day, what price should Mount Snow charge?

$75.50 in order for them to generate the required ROI. Since the resort has a very good reputation, it can charge a higher price than its competitors.

Explanation:

company's assets = $115,000,000

expected return on investment = 16%

fixed costs = $35,600,000

number of customers = 800,000

variable costs = $8 per customer x 800,000 = $6,400,000

total costs = $42,000,000

total cost per client = $42,000,000 / 800,000 = $52.50

desired profit = $115,000,000 x 16% = $18,400,000

desired profit per client = $18,400,000 / 800,000 = $23

price per ticket = $75.50

What is the forecasted value of property, plan and equipment (PP&E) based on the following information: Capital asset turnover ratio: 2.5 Forecasted revenues: $120 Forecasted costs of goods sold: $80

Answers

Answer:

Forecasted value of property, plan and equipment (PP&E) is $48.

Explanation:

First note that Capital asset is the same thing as property, plan and equipment (PP&E).

In order to calculate this, we therefore use the formula for calculating the Capital asset turnover ratio which is the ratio of forecasted revenues to forecasted value of property, plan and equipment (PP&E) as follows:

Capital asset turnover = Forecasted revenues / Forecasted value of PP&E

Substituting for the values in the question into the equation above and solve for Forecasted value of PP&E, we have:

2.5 = 120 / Forecasted value of PP&E

Forecasted value of PP&E = 120 / 2.5 = $48

Therefore, the forecasted value of property, plan and equipment (PP&E) is $48.

The forecasted value of property, plan and equipment for the period for the statement quoted above is $48. The calculations can be implied by using the values given in the formula.

The value of the property, plan and equipment is important for estimating the current, short run and long run capital requirements of the firm for a given period using the ratios.

The values given to us are as the capital assets turnover ratio is 2.5 and the forecasted costs of goods sold is $80 whereas the forecasted revenues of the firm is $120.

The calculation of estimated property, plan and equipment of a firm can be calculated by using the formula as given below by putting the available values.

[tex]\rm Forecasted\ PP\&E= \dfrac {Forecasted\ Revenues}{Capital\ Assets\ Turnover\ Ratio}\\\\\\\\\rm Forecasted\ PP\&E= \dfrac {\$120}{2.5}[/tex]

We get the forecasted PP&E of the firm as below,

[tex]\rm Forecasted\ PP\&E= \$48[/tex]

Therefore the value obtained for the forecasted PP&E of the firm is $48.

Hence, the correct statement of the forecasted PP&E of the firm is $48 when the forecasted revenues are $120 and the assets turnover ratio stands at 2.5.

Given no cash leakage and zero excess reserves held by banks, if reserves increase by $8 billion and the required reserve ratio is 9 percent, what is the resulting change in the money supply?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is $88,880,000

Explanation:

Multiplier effect = 1 / required reserve ratio

Required reserve ratio = 9 percent

Multiplier effect is therefore;

1/0.09

=11.11

Change is money supply is increase in reserve multiplied by multiplier effect

Increment in reserve = $8milion

11.11 x 8million

=$88,880,000

So, resulting change in the money supply is $88,880,000

ABG Corporation has the following dividend forecasts for the next three years: Year Expected Dividend 1 $ .25 2 $ .50 3 $ 1.25 After the third year, the dividend will grow at a constant rate of 5% per year. The required return is 10%. What is the price of the stock today?

Answers

Answer:

Price of share today =  $21.302

Explanation:

The price of a share can be calculated using the dividend valuation model  

According to this model the value of share is equal to the sum of the present values of its future cash dividends discounted at the required rate of return.

If dividend is expected to grow at a given rate , the value of a share is calculated using the formula below:

Price=Do (1+g)/(k-g)

Do - dividend in the following year, K- requited rate of return , g- growth rate

Step 1 : PV of dividend from year 1 to 3

Year                                               PV of Dividend

1            0.25 ×  1.1^(-1)         =          0.227

2              0.50  ×  1.1^(-2)     =         0.413

3             1.25   ×   1.1^(-3)      =         0.939

Strep 2 : PV of dividend from year 4 to infinity

PV (in year 3 terms) of dividend= 1.25 × 1.05/(0.1-0.05) = 26.25

PV in year 0 terms =  26.25 × 1.1^(-3) = 19.72

Present Value =   0.227  +    0.413  + 0.939  +   19.72 =  21.302

Price of share today =  $21.302
