Answer:
A. Should the new lease be accepted?
No, since the PV of the new deal is much higher than the PV of the current deal.
current deal's PV = $1,900 x annuity factor (1%, 60 periods) = $1,900 x 44.40459 = $84,368.72
new deal's PV:
$2,600 x annuity factor (1%, 51 periods) = $2,600 x 39.79814 = $104,475.16
$104,475.16 / 1.01⁹ = $95,525.80
B. If the store owner decided to bargain with the mall's owner over the new lease payment, what new lease payment would make the store owner indifferent between the new and the old leases?
To determine which lease value would make the store owner indifferent between the two options, we have to determine the future value of the first 9 payments that are not paid. Then that value should be equal to the present value of the increase in rent for the next 51 months:
step 1, calculate future value of 9 payments:
F V = payment x [(1 + r)ⁿ - 1] / r
payment = $1,900 r = 1% n = 9F V = $1,900 x [(1 + 0.01)⁹ - 1] / 0.01 = $17,800
step 2, calculate the present value of the increase in rent:
PV = payment / {1 - [1 / (1 + r)ⁿ] / r}
payment = $17,800r = 1% n = 51PV = $19,674 / ({1 - [1 / (1 + 0.01)⁵¹]} / 0.01) = $17,800 / 39.8 = $447.24
the new lease payment for which the store owner would be indifferent = $1,900 + $447.24 = $2,347.24
C. The store owner is not sure of the 12% WACC. It could be higher or lower. At what nominal WACC would the store owner be indifferent between the two leases?
in order to determine at what WACC would the store owner be indifferent between both alternatives, I used an excel spreadsheet to determine the IRR of the differential amount between both lease amounts:
periods 1 - 9 = -$1,900
periods 10 - 50 = $700
this results in a monthly IRR = 2.74%
WACC = 2.74% x 12 = 32.88%
Home equity line interest. Sean and Amy Anderson have a home with an appraised value of $180,000 and a mortgage balance of only $90,000. Given that an S&L is willing to lend money at a loan-to-value ratio of 75 percent, how big a home equity credit line can Sean and Amy obtain? How much, if any, of this line would qualify as tax-deductible interest if their house originally cost $100,000?
Answer:
$135,000
$75,000
Explanation:
Home value = $180,000
Loan to Value ratio = 75%
Formula: Maximum loan amount = Home value x loan to value ratio
Maximum loan amount = $180,000 x 75%
Maximum loan amount = $135,000
If the value of house is $100,000 then,
$100,000 x 75% = $75,000
$75,000 would qualify as Tax deductible interest
Abburi Company's manufacturing overhead is 55% of its total conversion costs. If direct labor is $58,500 and if direct materials are $29,200, the manufacturing overhead is:
Answer:
$71,500
Explanation:
The computation of manufacturing overhead is shown below:-
We assume conversion cost = x
Conversion cost = Labor cost + manufacturing overhead
x = $58,500 + 0.55x
x = $58,500 ÷ 0.45
= $130,000
Now the manufacturing overhead is
= Conversion cost × maufacturing overhead percentage
= $130,000 × 55%
= $71,500

Taveras Corporation is currently operating at 50% of its available manufacturing capacity. It uses a job-order costing system with a plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. At the beginning of the year, the company made the following estimates:
Machine-hours required to support estimated production 225,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead cost $ 4,275,000
Variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine-hour $ 2.00
Required:
1. Compute the plantwide predetermined overhead rate.
2. During the year, Job P90 was started, completed, and sold to the customer for $3,700. The following information was available with respect to this job:
Direct materials 1,702
Direct labor cost $ 1,221
Machine-hours used 84
Compute the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job P90.
Answer:
a. $21 per machine hours
b. $4,855
Explanation:
a. The computation of the plantwide predetermined overhead rate is shown below:
Plantwide predetermined overhead rate is
= Variable overhead cost rate per machine hour + Fixed overhead cost rate per machine hour
= $2 + (fixed manufacturing overhead cost ÷ Estimated machine hours)
= $2 + ($4,275,000 ÷ 225,000 machine hours)
= $2 + $19
= $21 per machine hour

A firm sells peanuts in a perfectly competitive market. Upon increasing production output from 60 packages to 75 packages, the total revenue increased from $300to $375. What was the marginal revenue of this increase in production
Answer:
$5
Explanation:
The computation of marginal revenue is shown below:-
Marginal revenue = Change in total revenue ÷ Change in output
= ($375 - $300) ÷ (75 - 60)
= $75 ÷ 15
= $5
The marginal revenue could be computed by dividing the change in total revenue from the change in output so that the increased in production could come

You have been appointed to lead an existing group. Your boss, who informed you of the assignment, made these comments: "These people have some real issues. They have been a problem for years. They stick together like family but never seem to get much work done." Which of these would best describe this group?
Answer:
This is a group that can be defined by its high cohesiviness and low performance norms.
Explanation:
In this case, the new leader must focus on solving this problem that already exists where team members have high cohesion, but who have a low performance with regard to compliance with internal rules and procedures.
The ideal in this case would be for the leader to review the set of company policies and standards and seek to establish new rules and procedures for living and working together.
Having a cohesive team is not a weakness for an organization, the ideal is to know how to exploit the potential of each member of that team, so that each one delivers to the company an effective job that contributes to the achievement of the objectives and organizational goals.
The manager can also invest in training, redesigning the layout of work and tasks, setting deadlines for completing activities, delivering warnings to ward off inappropriate behavior during working hours, etc.
You can determine a company’s cash situation by analyzing the cash flow statement. The cash flow statement also helps determine whether the company (1) is generating enough cash from its operations to make new investments and pay dividends or (2) will need to generate cash by issuing new debt or selling its assets.
Which of the following is true for the statement of cash flows?
a. It reflects cash generated and used during the reporting period.
b. It reflects revenues when earned.
Answer: a. It reflects cash generated and used during the reporting period
Explanation:
The Cash flow statement is very important and is useful to various stakeholders in a company with the most important being the Company Management itself and Creditors.
Management are able to use the Cash flow statement to see how much actual cash was spent in the year as well as how much was used. This is important because the Income statement contains entries that might show revenue that have not being received or expenses such as depreciation that did not impact the actual cash the company has. The Cash flow statement fixes this by showing those actual figures thus enabling the company to plan better.
It is also useful to Creditors so that they see if a company is able to pay them for the period.
Harvey is planning to file a case against a petrochemical giant that has a plant in his town. The petrochemical plant is dumping toxic wastes into its surrounding areas. Harvey is mobilizing the residents of the town, all of whom have suffered from various health problems due to the activities of the plant. Which of the following would be of most help to Harvey and the other residents?
A. Affirmative defense
B. Class action
C. Demurrer
D. Directed verdict
Answer:
B. Class action
Explanation:
In this scenario, Harvey is planning to file a case against a petrochemical giant that has a plant in his town because the petrochemical plant is dumping toxic wastes into its surrounding areas. Sequel to this, Harvey is mobilizing the residents of the town, all of whom have suffered from various health problems due to the activities of the plant.
Hence, a class action would be of most help to Harvey and the other residents.
In Law, a class action is a type of lawsuit in which a collective group of people (plaintiffs) having similar injuries or suffering similar damages caused by a particular company's product or action sue the defendant on behalf of a larger group. This simply means that, the group of people (plaintiffs) have a common interest as a result of sharing similar actions from an event.
Hence, the larger group that is being represented by Harvey is referred to as the "class" in business law.
Additionally, it is required by law that the class attest to the fact that they were affected by the actions of the petrochemical plant (defendant).

Common Stock
= Common Stock + Dividends Declared
= 620,000 + ( 2% * 62,000 shares * $10 par value)
= 620,000 + 12,400
= $632,400
Paid in capital in excess of par value, Common stock
Dividends were declared based on current market value of $31 not par value of $10 so the differnce will be catered for here.
= Balance + Dividends Declared
= 423,000 + (2% * 62,000 * $21 which is differnce between par value and market value)
= 423,000 + 26,040
= $449,040
Retained earnings
= Retained Earnings - Dividends distributed
= 552,000 - (2% * 62,000 * $31)
= 552,000 - $38,440
= $513,560

In producing jelly beans, 1,000 hours of direct labor were used at a rate of $12 per hour. The standard was 1,100 at $12.25 per hour. What is the direct labor efficiency variance
Answer:
Efficiency variance = $1,225 favorable
Explanation:
Labour efficiency variance is the difference between the actual time taken to achieve a given production output less the standard hours allowed for same multiplied by the standard labour rate .
It occurs as result of workers working faster or slower than expected (i.e standard hour )
Hours
standard hours 1, 100
Actual hours 1,000
efficiency varainec in Labour hour 100 favorable
Standard labour rate × $12.25f
Efficiency variance $1,225 favorable
Efficiency variance = $1,225
A firm wishes to maintain an internal growth rate of 9 percent and a dividend payout ratio of 66 percent. The ratio of total assets to sales is constant at 1, and the profit margin is 8.1 percent. If the firm also wishes to maintain a constant debt-equity ratio, what must it be
Answer:
the constant debt-equity ratio is 2.580
Explanation:
Given:
dividend payout ratio of 66 percent= 0.66
Sustainable Growth rate of 9 percent = 0.09
profit margin is 8.1 percent= 0.081
total assets to sales is constant at 1
We need to calculate the Retention Ratio first,
which gives the percentage of a company's earnings that are not paid out in dividends but credited to retained earnings. It can be calculated using below expression,
Retention Ratio = 1 - Dividend pay-out ratio
Retention Ratio = 1 - 0.66 = 0.34
ROE i.e the return on equity which is a measure of the profitability of a business in relation to the equity can be calculated as;
Sustainable Growth rate = (ROE * Retention Ratio)/(1 - ROE*Retention Ratio)
0.09 = (ROE * 0.34/(1 - ROE*0.34)
0.09 (1 - 0.34ROE) = 0.34ROE
0.09 - 0.0306ROE = 0.34ROE
0.3094ROE = 0.09
ROE = 0.09/0.3094
ROE = 0.290 or 2.90%
debt-equity ratio can now be calculated as;
Return on Equity = Profit Margin×Total Assets to sales ratio×(1+D/E)
0.290 = 0.081*1*(1+D/E)
1 + D/E = 0.290/0.081
1 + D/E = 3.580
D/E = 3.580 - 1 = 2.580
Therefore, the constant debt-equity ratio is 2.580
ervis sells $75,000 of its accounts receivable to Northern Bank in order to obtain necessary cash. Northern Bank charges a 5% factoring fee. What entry should Jervis make to record the transaction?
Answer:
Debit Cash account $71,250
Debit Factoring charge $3,750
Credit Accounts receivable $75,000
Explanation:
Factoring accounts receivable involves the sale of the account receivable to another party such that the debt is now payable to that party. This is usually done to ease liquidity and at a charge.
When receivables are factored,
Debit Cash account
Debit Factoring charge
Credit Accounts receivable
Charge on factoring = 5/100 × $75,000
= $3,750
Amount to be received = $75,000 - $3,750

forecasted net income=$600,000
percentage equity=40%
capital budget=$2,000,000
Therefore, residual dividend=$600,000-(40%*$2,000,000)
residual dividend=-$200,000
The residual dividend is -$200,000, therefore If the company follows a residual dividend policy the total dividends will be $0

Explanation:
1. Investment commodities are investments in raw materials or primary goods that are still to be processed such as Agricultural produce and precious metals. Steel falls under this category.
2. A Mutual Fund works by pooling the resources and monies of various people and then investing it in various companies as a single portfolio. This way even though your funds might be little, you can still be able to diversify investments and make a good return.
3. When stock is listed for sale on a particular day, its trading figures for the previous day are listed as well.
4. Capital gain is a way to gain a return when the value of your investment has increased. When you sell that asset at the new price which is higher than the price you bought it, you make a capital gain on the transaction. For instance, R. Taylor bought stock for $100 in 2005 and it is now selling at $900 and Taylor sells it, Taylor now has a capital gain of $800.

The question is incomplete, the complete question is:
On January 1, Playa Company acquires 90 percent ownership in Seaside Corporation for $180,000. The fair value of the noncontrolling interest at that time is determined to be $20,000. Seaside reports net assets with a book value of $200,000 and fair value of $200,000. Playa Company reports net assets with a book value of $480,000 and a fair value of $525,000 at that time, excluding its investment in Seaside. What will be the amount of consolidated net assets that would be reported immediately after the combination?
Answer:
$680,000
Explanation:
Since Playa Company owns 90% of Seaside Corporation, it is considered Seaside's parent company and it must include all of Seaside's assets when it presents its consolidated balance sheet.
Total net assets reported = $480,000 (Playa's net assets at book value) + $200,000 (Seaside's net assets) = $680,000
Even though most corporate bonds in the United States make coupon payments semiannually, bonds issued elsewhere often have annual coupon payments. Suppose a German company issues a bond with a par value of €1,000, 23 years to maturity, and a coupon rate of 3.8 percent paid annually. If the yield to maturity is 4.7 percent, what is the current price of the bond? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
Bond Price = 875.0948 euro rounded off to 875.09 euro
Explanation:
To calculate the price of the bond, we need to first calculate the coupon payment per period. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is an annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,
Coupon Payment (C) = 1000 * 0.038 = 38 euro
Total periods (n)= 23
r or YTM = 0.047 or 4.7%
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
Bond Price = 38 * [( 1 - (1+0.047)^-23) / 0.047] + 1000 / (1+0.047)^23
Bond Price = 875.0948 euro rounded off to 875.09 euro
Perteet Corporation's relevant range of activity is 3,000 units to 7,000 units. When it produces and sells 5,000 units, its average costs per unit are as follows:
Average Cost per Unit
Direct materials $6.70
Direct labor $3.25
Variable manufacturing overhead $1.60
Fixed manufacturing overhead $3.00
Fixed selling expense $0.70
Fixed administrative expense $0.40
Sales commissions $0.50
Variable administrative expense $0.55
If 4,000 units are produced, the total amount of manufacturing overhead cost is closest to:__________
a. $28,000
b. $14,800
c. $21,400
d. $18,100
Answer:
Total overhead cost= $21,400
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
When it produces and sells 5,000 units, its average costs per unit are as follows:
Variable manufacturing overhead $1.60
Fixed manufacturing overhead $3.00
First, we need to calculate the total fixed manufacturing overhead:
Fixed overhead= 3*5,000= $15,000
Now, we can calculate the total overhead cost for 4,000 units.
Total overhead cost= total variable cost + total fixed cost
Total overhead cost= 1.6*4,000 + 15,000
Total overhead cost= $21,400
6. ABC Company announced today that it will begin paying annual dividends next year. The first dividend will be $0.10 a share. The following dividends will be $0.20, $0.30, $0.40, and $0.50 a share annually for the following 4 years, respectively. After that, dividends are projected to increase by 2.0 percent per year. How much are you willing to pay to buy one share of this stock today if your desired rate of return is 8.0 percent
Answer:
The amount willing to pay to buy one share is $6.92.
Explanation:
The announcement by company to pay annual dividend = $0.10
2nd year divident amount = $0.20
3rd year divident amount = $0.30
4th year divident amount = $0.40
5th-year divident amount = $0.50
The increase in dividend = 2 percent.
The desired rate of return = 8%
Value after year 5 = (D5 × Growth rate) / (Required rate-Growth rate)
=(0.5 × 1.02) / (0.08-0.02)
=8.5
Therefore, the current value = Future dividend and value × Present value of discounting factor(rate%,time period)
=0.1/1.08 + 0.2/1.08^2 + 0.3/1.08^3 + 0.4/1.08^4 + 0.5/1.08^5 + 8.5/1.08^5
=$6.92.
