Answer and Explanation:
1. The computation of the Degree of operating leverage is
= Quantity sold × (Price - Variable cost) ÷ (Quantity sold × (Price - Variable cost) - Fixed cost)
where,
Fixed cost = $160,000 + $470,000 ÷ 4
= $277,500
Now the degree of operating leverage is
= 77000 × ($30 - $20) ÷ ($77,000 × ($30 - $20) - $277,500)
= 1.56
2. The Accounting Break-even level of output is
The break even point is
= Fixed cost ÷ (Price - Variable cost)
= $277500 ÷ ($30 - $20)
= $27,750
As the degree of operating leverage could not be calculated as the denominator comes to zero

Managers are important members of the organization. Within an organization, there are managers at four levels: top, middle, first-line, and team leaders.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
The correct answer is the option B: False.
Explanation:
To begin with, the managers are one of the most important parts of the organization due to the fact that they have the task to plan, organize, direct and control the operations of the company. There are at least three levels in which the managers can go and have their work done, like the management area(high), the department areas(middle) and the operations area(low): However, that will depend on the organization and its size due to that an organization can only have managers at one level.
The beta of an all equity firm is 2.3. If the firm changes its capital structure to 50% debt and 50% equity using 8% debt financing, what will be the equity beta of the levered firm
The beta of an all equity firm is 2.3. If the firm changes its capital structure to 50% debt and 50% equity using 8% debt financing, what will be the equity beta of the levered firm? The beta of debt is 0.2. (Assume no taxes.) Provide your answer with 2 digits after the comma.
Answer:
4.40
Explanation:
Equity beta, is a term in business or economics, which is.oftemr referred to as Levered beta, which measures the risk of a firm in respect to debt and equity in its capital structure to the volatility of the stock market.
Therefore, Formula for equity beta is giving as = βE = equity firm + (debt/equity)(equity firm - beta of debt)
Given that, equity firm = 2.3
Capital structure to debt = 50% = 0.5
Capital structure to equity = 50% = 0.5
Beta of debt = 0.2
βE = 2.3 + (0.5/0.5)(2.3 - 0.2) =
2.3 + (0.5/0.5)(2.3 - 02) =
= 2.3 + (1)(2.1)=
2.3 + 2.1= 4.40
Hence, the final is 4.40
Wesimann Co. issued 12-year bonds a year ago at a coupon rate of 7.8 percent. The bonds make semiannual payments and have a par value of $1,000. If the YTM on these bonds is 6.1 percent, what is the current bond price? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
Price of bond =1,143.18
Explanation:
The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).
Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV
The value of bond for Wesimann Co can be worked out as follows:
Step 1
PV of interest payments
Semi annul interest payment
= 7.8% × 1000 × 1/2 = 39
Semi-annual yield = 6.1%/2 = 3.05 % per six months
Total period to maturity (in months)
= (2 × 12) = 24 periods (Note it was sold 12 years ago)
PV of interest =
39 × (1- (1+0.0305)^(-24)/) 0.0305 = 656.94
Step 2
PV of Redemption Value
= 1,000 × (1.0305)^(-24) = 486.237
Price of bond
= 656.94 +486.23 = 1,143.179
Price of bond =1,143.18
Consider a mutual fund with $200 million in assets at the start of the year and 10 million shares outstanding. The fund invests in a portfolio of stocks that provides dividend income at the end of the year of $2 million. The stocks included in the fund's portfolio increase in price by 8%, but no securities are sold and there are no capital gains distributions. The fund charges 12b-1 fees of 1%, which are deducted from portfolio assets at year-end. a. What is the fund's net asset value at the start and end of the year?
Answer:
At start = $20/share
At end = $21.384
Explanation:
DATA
ASSets at the start = $200m
Outstanding shares = 10m
Dividend income at the end = $2m
Gain in price = 8%
12b-1 fees = 1%
A.
Net assets at the start can be calculated by dividing assets at the start by outstanding shares
Net Assets value at start = Assets at start/Outstanding shares
Net Assets value at start = $200m/10m
Net Assets value at start = $20/share
Net Assets value at the end can be calculated by multiplying gain price with 12b-1 fees
Net assets value at the end = Gain Price x (1-12b-1 fees)
Net Assets value at the end = ($20x$1.08) x (1 - 0.01)
Net Assets value at the end = $21.6 x 0.99
Net Assets value at the end = $21.384
On July 23 of the current year, Dakota Mining Co. pays $6,110,400 for land estimated to contain 8,040,000 tons of recoverable ore. It installs machinery costing $723,600 that has a 10-year life and no salvage value and is capable of mining the ore deposit in eight years. The machinery is paid for on July 25, seven days before mining operations begin. The company removes and sells 414,250 tons of ore during its first five months of operations ending on December 31. Depreciation of the machinery is in proportion to the mine's depletion as the machinery will be abandoned after the ore is mined.
Required:
Prepare entries to record:
a. the purchase of the land
b. the cost and installation of machinery
c. the first five months' depletion assuming the land has a net salvage value of zero after the ore is mined.
d. the first five months' depreciation on the machinery.
Answer:
a.Purchase of Land
Land $6,110,400 (debit)
Cash $6,110,400 (credit)
b.Machinery Costs
Land $723,600 (debit)
Accounts Payable $723,600 (credit)
c. $314,830
d. $37,282.50
Explanation:
Purchase of Land
Land $6,110,400 (debit)
Cash $6,110,400 (credit)
Machinery Costs
Land $723,600 (debit)
Accounts Payable $723,600 (credit)
Depletion Expense = Cost of Asset / Expected Total Contents in Units × Number of Units taken in the Period.
= $6,110,400 / 8,040,000 tons × 414,250 tons
= $314,830
Depreciation Expense = Cost of Asset / Expected Total Contents in Units × Number of Units taken in the Period.
= $723,600 / 8,040,000 tons × 414,250 tons
= $37,282.50
. Find the accumulated present value of a continuous income stream that earns 4.2% interest annually, when $4000 is deposited per year for 30 years in the account.
Answer:
The accumulated present value is $67,518.99.

Investment opportunities that require a series of payments of a fixed amount for a specific number of periods are known as annuities.
The Present Value of this annuity can be calculated as :
Fv = $0
n = 30
r = 4.2 %
Pmt = - $4,000
P/ yr = 1
Pv = ?
Using a financial calculator, the Present Value (PV) of the annuity is $67,518.9948 or $67,518.99.
The Closed Fund is a closed-end investment company with a portfolio currently worth $200 million. It has liabilities of $3 million and 5 million shares outstanding. a. What is the NAV of the fund?
Answer:
$39.40
Explanation:
According to the situation, the solution is as follows
The Net asset value of the fund is
= (Current worth of portfolio - liabilities) ÷ (outstanding shares)
= ($200 million - $3 million) ÷ (5 million shares)
= $39.40
Basically we applied the above formula in order to determine the net asset value of the fund.
Based on the following information for Builtrite, calculate the current value of its stock if the current dividend is $3.00, a projected super normal growth for three years at 20%, the growth rate after year 3 should remain constant at 9% and you want to earn a 16% annual return. What would you be willing to pay for Builtrite stock?
Answer:
$61.35
Explanation:
The computation of the current value of the stock is shown below:
Current Dividend = D0 = $3.00
Super Normal growth for next 3 years = g1 = 20% or 0.20
Growth Rate after 3 year = g2 = 9% or 0.09
Required rate of Return = r = 16% or 0.16
Now
as we know that
Value of Share (P0) is
= [D1 ÷ (1 + r)] + [D2 ÷ (1 + r)^2] + [D3 ÷ (1 + r)^3] + [P3 ÷ (1 +r )^3]
Where
D1 = Dividend in year 1
D2 = Dividend in year 2
D3 = Dividend in year 3
P3 = Value of share at the end of year 3
Now first we have to compute the P3 value which is
P3 = D4 ÷ (r - g2)
= D0 × (1 + g1)^3 (1 + g2) ÷(r - g2)
= $3.00 × (1 + 0.20)^3 (1 + 0.09) ÷ (0.16-0.09)
= $5.65056
Now
Value of Share (P0) is
= [D1 ÷ (1 + r)] + [D2 ÷ (1 + r)^2] + [D3 ÷ (1 + r)^3] + [P3 ÷ (1 + r)^3]
= [D0 × (1 + g1) ÷ (1 + r)^1] + [D0 × (1 + g1)^2 ÷ (1 + r)^2] + [D0 × (1 + g1)^3 ÷ (1 + r)^3] + [P3 ÷ (1 + r)^3]
= [$3.00 × (1 + 0.20) ÷ (1 + 0.16)^1] + [$3.00 × (1 + 0.20)^2 ÷ (1 + 0.16)^2] + [$3.00 × (1 + 0.20)^3 ÷ (1 + 0.16)^3] + [$5.65056 ÷ (1 + 0.16)^3]
= $3.10 + $3.21 + $ 3.32 + $51.72
= $61.35

nterest rates on 2-year Treasury securities are currently 6.0%, while 6-year Treasury securities yield 6.5%. If the pure expectations theory is correct, what does the market believe that 4-year securities will be yielding 2 years from now
Answer:
The market believes that 4-years from now, the 4-year securities will be 6.75%
Explanation:
We proceed as follows using the pure expectations theory .
The theory states that the future rates are exclusively represented by the forward rate.
Mathematically;
(1 + .065)^6 = (1 + .^206)2 * (1 + x)^4
1.4591 = 1.1236 * (1 + x)^4
Divide both sides by 1.1236
1.2986 = (1 + x)^4
Take both sides to the 1/4 power to get rid of the power of 4
1.0675= 1 + x
x = .0675 or 6.75%
Financial leverage: Group of answer choices is the ratio of a firm's revenues to its fixed expenses. is equal to the market value of a firm divided by the firm's book value. increases the potential return to the stockholders. is inversely related to the level of debt. increases as the net working capital increases.
Answer: Increases the potential return to the stockholders.
Explanation:
Financial Leverage is the use of more debt to fund company assets. This can lead to higher potential returns to the Stockholders if the interest rate attached to the debt is less than the Company's required rate of return. That way, the difference between the rates will bring about a positive return for shareholders.
Also, having more debt provides a sort of tax shield to the earnings of the Stockholders because Debt is Tax Deductible. This will therefore increase the earnings going to the Stockholders.
When generating a globalized marketing plan, a Japanese company called Trusco decided to implement a localization strategy when introducing its work and tool products into the Swiss and Canadian markets. In order to reach the new markets, Trusco needed to translate its product packaging, consider the political and economic environments, identify its competitors, and consider other areas of the marketing mix that require additional localization efforts. Which of the following statements matches best with Trusco's experience in generating its marketing plan?
a. Generating worldwide marketing plans requires most companies to communicate one identical message to all global markets.
b. Creating a global marketing plan is a task that can be accomplished with very little effort.
c. Creating a global marketing plan is a complex task.
Answer:
c. Creating a global marketing plan is a complex task.
Explanation:
It is correct to say that creating a global marketing plan is a complex task.
There are several barriers that can spell failure if the international company's strategy is poorly planned.
Therefore, the ideal is to research in depth about the new market to which the organization intends to enter.
In addition to legally adapting to local legislation, the company must analyze and plan to generate local interest in its products and services.
This requires market research that seeks to identify your target audience, what are their particularities, preferences, characteristics and needs.
The set of variables in the marketing mix: price, product, place and promotion, should also be adapted to the location where the company is located, the key to success is adaptation and the strategy aligned with the location.

A 5-year corporate bond yields 7.0%. A 5-year municipal bond (tax exempt bond) of equal risk yields 5.0%. Assume that the state tax rate is zero. At what federal tax rate are you indifferent between the two bonds?
Answer:
The tax rate is approximately(rounded to a whole) 29%
Explanation:
The federal tax that would make an investor indifferent between the 5-year corporate bond and the 5-year municipal bond can be derived by equating the return on the former to the taxable return of the latter as below:
5%=7%*(1-t)
where the t is the unknown tax rate
Note that the return on 5-year corporate bond is taxable while the return on the municipal bond is tax-free
5%=7%*(1-t)
5%/7%=1-t
0.7143 =1-t
t=1-0.7143
t=29%

The profit leverage effect (ratio) is calculated by A. dividing 1.0 by the profit margin. B. dividing pretax earnings by the cost of goods sold. C. dividing sales by the cost of goods sold. D. none of the above
Answer:
D. none of the above
Explanation:
The profit leverage effect shows that in order to increase net profits, it is better and more efficient to reduce operating expenses rather than increasing total net sales revenue. I.e. a $1 decrease in costs increases operating profits by $1, which is much more than the increase resulting from increasing sales by $1.
A company's product sells at $12 per unit and has a $5 per unit variable cost. The company's total fixed costs are $98,000. The contribution margin per unit is:
Answer:
The contribution margin per unit is $7
Explanation:
The contribution margin per unit can be defined as the difference between the selling price per unit and the variable cost per unit.
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price - Variable cost
Contribution margin per unit = $12 - $5
Contribution margin per unit = $7
The contribution margin per unit is $7
Summary: With 250,000 employees in 19 countries, Aramark wanted to motivate its employees who clean airplanes for Delta and Southwest Airlines. Turnover of the low-paid, largely immigrant staff was high while morale was low. Wallets and other valuables left on planes disappeared. After 5 years of efforts to increase motivation, revenue rose from $5 million to $14 million. 1. What motivation theories apply to the workers at Aramark? 2. If you were the manager of these employees, what would you do to motivate them? Be honest regarding your personal management style and beliefs rather than trying to be like Roy Pelaez. 3. What are some possible barriers to the effectiveness of your motivation ideas? What could you do to overcome them?
Answer:
Explanation:
(A)
What motivation theory applies to the workers at Aramark?
The workers should be motivated with payments for the return of valuables forgotten in the aircraft.
(B)
To motivate them, offer them a salary increase
(C)
Some possible barriers to the effectiveness of these motivation ideas are gluttony (depending on individual worker), a period of stiff or falling profit (which will hinder the smooth running of the new benefit policies), change of management.
(D)
What could you do, to overcome them?
To ensure that workers do not still steal forgotten valuables, place a check or supervision on them.
To ensure the profit level is maintained or increased, make sure the workers do not relent in their duties. Sometimes, more benefits make workers relax more.

Please evaluate the following statements from the standpoint of the issuing company and the place each statement in the category of Advantages or Disadvantages Disadvantage
Advantages Dividends
1. Repaid
2. Shareholders
3. Future Buy Back
4. Net Profit After Taxes
5. One Vote Per Share
Answer:
Advantages
Dividends
These are payments to shareholders as a way to share the profits the company has accumulated.
This is an advantage to the issuing company because they are usually not under any obligation to pay Dividends with respect to common Equity. As a result profits can be plowed back into the company to increase profitability.
Repaid
This refers to the fact that shareholders do not have to be repaid for their investment like debt holders are. Stock Holders bought a piece of the company instead of loaning money to the company so they do not have to be paid back. This is an advantage because it frees up Cashflow for the company as well as allowing it to maintain a better credit rating due to lower debts.
Future Buy-Back
This is a clause inherent in most shares. It means that the Issuing company can choose to buy back the stock at a given time in future.
This is an Advantage because it allows the Issuing company to regain control of the company at a future date.
Disadvantages.
Shareholders
Shareholders are people or entities who buy shares in the Issuing company. As such, they are owners in the company and have voting rights on decisions that the company makes. This is a disadvantage because it means loss of Independence for the company who now legally have to take the opinions of shareholders into account.
Net Profit After Tax
This is money that the company has after paying off interests and then taxes. This is the money that the company retains. Having shareholders means that a company may have to pay shareholders from this amount instead of retaining all of it thereby making it at a disadvantage to the Issuing company.
One Vote per Share
This means that every shareholder has a vote for every share they hold in the company. This means that Shareholders therefore have a say in the affairs of the company. This is a disadvantage to the Issuing company because it means a loss of Independence for them when decisions need to be made.
