Answer:
6.9%
Explanation:
To find the answer, you have to use the formula to calculate the yield to maturity:
Yield to maturity= (C+(F-P/n))/(F+P/2), where:
C= Coupon payment= $1,000*7.60%= $76
F= Face value= $1,000
P= Price= $1,062.50
n= Years to maturity= 16
Yield to maturity=(76+(1,000-1,062.50/16))/(1,000+1,062.50/2)
Yield to maturity=72,09/1,031.25
Yield to maturity=0.069 → 6.9%
Accoriding to this, the yield to maturity is 6.9%.
Garcia Company issues 10%, 15-year bonds with a par value of $230,000 and semiannual interest payments. On the issue date, the annual market rate for these bonds is 8%, which implies a selling price of 117 1/4. The effective interest method is used to allocate interest expense.
1. Using the implied selling price of 117 1/4, what are the issuer's cash proceeds from issuance of these bonds.
2. What total amount of bond interest expense will be recognized over the life of these bonds?
3. What amount of bond interest expense is recorded on the first interest payment date?
Answer:
A.$269,675
B.$305,325
C.$10,787
Explanation:
Requirement A Cash proceeds
Cash proceeds can find out by multiplying par value with the selling price
Cash proceeds = Par Value x Selling price
Cash proceeds = $230,000 x 117.25%
Cash proceeds = $269,675
Requirement B Interest Expense
Bond interest expense =Total repayment -Amount borrowed(REQ.A)
Bond interest expense = $575,000(w) - $269,675
Bond interest expense = $305,325
Workings
Semi-annual interest expense = $230,000 x 10% x 6/12
Semi-annual interest expense = $11,500
Total payment would be 30 for 15 years
Total payment = $11,500 x 30
Total payment = $345,000
Total repayment = Par value + $345,000
Total repayment = $230,000 + $345,000
Total repayment = $575,000
Requirement C Bond interest expense on the first interest payment date
Bond interest Expense = $269,675(REQ.A) x 8% x 6/12
Bond interest Expense = $10,787

Massena Corporation reported the following data for the month of February:
Inventories: Beginning Ending
Raw materials (Direct and Indirect) $40000 $24000
Work in process $23000 $17000
Finished goods $50000 $72000
Additional information:
Raw materials purchases $63000
Direct labor cost $73700
Manufacturing overhead $55000
cost actually incurred
Raw materials included in
manufacturing overhead costs
incurred as indirect materials $5000
Manufacturing overhead cost
applied to Work in Process $48000
The adjusted cost of goods sold that appears on the income statement for February is:____
$=
Answer:
$186,700
Explanation:
The computation of adjusted cost of goods sold is shown below:-
Before that we need to do the following calculations
Raw material consumed = Beginning raw material + Raw material purchases - Ending raw materials - Raw materials included in manufacturing overhead costs as indirect materials
= $40,000 + $63,000 - $24,000 - $5,000
= $74,000
Total manufacturing cost = Beginning work in progress + Raw material consumed + Direct labor cost + Manufacturing overhead cost - Ending work in progress
= $23,000 + $74,000 + $73,700 + $48,000 - $17,000
= $201,700
Unadjusted Cost of goods sold = Raw materials + Total manufacturing cost - Ending finished goods
= $50,000 + $201,700 - $72,000
= $179,700
Adjusted COGS = Unadjusted Cost of goods sold + Underapplied overhead
= $179,700 + ($55,000 - $48,000)
= $179,700 + $7,000
= $186,700
The Western Capital Growth mutual fund has: Total assets$812,000,000Total liabilities$12,000,000Total number of shares 40,000,000 What is the fund's net asset value (NAV) per share?
Answer:
The fund's net asset value (NAV) per share is $20.
Explanation:
Net Asset Value (NAV) = (Assets - Liabilities) ÷ Number of Shares

CAPM = risk free rate +( beta x expected market return)
5.6% + (1.25 x 12.5%) = 21.2%
An option is called a derivative security because: Select one: a. its value is derived from that of another asset b. to calculate its worth requires extensive derivations c. it is the basic building block security we use to value all other derivative securities d. its value is derived from the existence of a convex payoff around an exercise value e. none of the above
Answer:
The answer is A.
Explanation:
Firstly, what is a derivative? - A derivative is a financial instrument that derives its value from the value of the underlying asset(bonds, equity etc) or forward rate agreement in the case of interest rate swap. A derivative transforms the value of the underlying.
Examples of derivative are, forward contract, futures, options, swaps etc.
Therefore, option A is the correct option.
A put on XYZ stock with a strike price of $40 is priced at $2.00 per share, while a call with a strike price of $40 is priced at $3.50. What is the maximum per-share loss to the writer of the uncovered put and the maximum per-share gain to the writer of the uncovered call
Answer:
Loss = $38
Gain = $3.5
Explanation:
The calculation of maximum per-share loss and maximum per-share gain is shown below:-
Maximum loss = Exercise price - Premium received
= $40 - $2
= $38
So, the maximum per share loss is $38
Maximum gain = Premium received
= $3.5
So, the maximum per share gain is $3.5

A financial asset is liquid: Group of answer choices if it can be readily exchanged for another asset or good. if it is held by the public and earning interest. only if it takes the form of cash. if it can be carried easily from one place to another.
Answer:
if it can be readily exchanged for another asset or good
Explanation:
An asset is liquid if it can be easily be exchanged for another asset or good or converted to cash. cash ( currency) is the most liquid asset.
an house for example is less liquid when compared to cash. this is because before it can be converted to cash or exchanged for another asset, it must first be valued, then we have to find a buyer and this process can range from days to years. this makes a house less liquid when compared with a house.
For each of the following scenarios, determine if there is an increase or a decrease in supply for the good in italics.
a. The price of silver increases.
b. Growers of tomatoes experience an unusually good growing season.
c. New medical evidence reports that consumption of organic products reduces the incidence of cancer.
d. The wages of low-skill workers, a resource used to help produce clothing, increase.
Answer:
a. The price of silver increases. - Supply Increase
As the price of silver increases, it will make silver more profitable therefore producers will increase production to take advantage of the higher prices to make more profit in total.
b. Growers of tomatoes experience an unusually good growing season. - Supply Increase
If growers of tomatoes experience a good season, it means that there will be more tomatoes to harvest. This will increase the supply of tomatoes.
c. New medical evidence reports that consumption of organic products reduces the incidence of cancer. - Supply Increase.
Supply of organic products will increase as a result of an anticipated and an actual increase in the demand for organic products as more people will buy them to avoid getting cancer.
d. The wages of low-skill workers, a resource used to help produce clothing, increase. - Supply Decrease
When inputs into the production process increase, producers will tend to cut down production to enable them save cost and maintain profitability. If the wages of low-skill workers increase, it will mean that an input is now more expensive so production of clothing will reduce thereby reducing its supply.
Journalizing issuance of stock—at par and at a premium
Colorado Corporation has two classes of stock: common, $3 par value; and preferred $30 par value.
Requirements
Journalize Colorado’s issuance of 4,500 shares of common stock for $6 per share.
Journalize Colorado’s issuance of 4,500 shares of preferred stock for a total of $135,000.
Answer:
a.
Cash 27000 Dr
Common Stock 13500 Cr
Paid in capital in excess of par-Common stock 13500 Cr
b.
Cash 135000 Dr
Preferred Stock 135000 Cr
Explanation:
a.
When we issue stock at premium, we always record the amount received from such issuance of stock at full. So, the cash account will be debited for 4500 * 6 = 27000
However, we record the common stock issued at par value and the remaining is credited under the reserve account which is Paid in capital in excess of par.
Thus the common stock will be credited by its par value of 4500 * 3 = 13500 and the remaining 4500 * 3 will be credited to the Paid in Capital account.
b.
The par value of the preferred stock is 4500 * 30 = 135000
Thus the preferred stock is issued at par and we simply debit the cash received from the issue and credit the preferred stock.

Max Company uses 20,000 units of Part A in producing its products. A supplier offers to make Part A for $7. Max Company has relevant costs of $8 a unit to manufacture Part A. If there is excess capacity, the opportunity cost of not buying Part A from the supplier is:________
a) $20,000.
b) $0.
c) $160,000.
d) $140,000.
Answer:
$20,000
Explanation:
Max company makes use of 20,000 units of part A to manufacture its product
A supplier offers to produce part A for $7
Max company has relevant costs to $8 per unit to produce part A
Therefore, the opportunity cost of not buying part A from the supplier can be calculated as follows
Opportunity cost= 20,000 units of part A($8-$7)
= 20,000 units×$1
= 20,000×$1
= $20,000
Hence the opportunity cost of not buying part A from the supplier when there is excess capacity is $20,000

A buyer and a seller enter into a real estate sales contract. Under the contract's terms, the buyer will pay the seller $500 a month for 10 years. The seller will continue to hold legal title, while the buyer will live in the home and pay all real estate taxes, insurance premiums, and regular upkeep costs. What kind of contract do the buyer and seller have
Answer: Land Sales Contract
Explanation:
Land Sales contract are a way to buy a property for people who would otherwise be unable to buy one because they were unable to get a mortgage or are running low in funds.
It works by the buyer paying the seller a certain amount of money for a period of time according to an agreement. During this period of payment, the seller continues to hold the legal rights to the property and then passes it to the buyer when they are finished paying. In this scenario therefore, the seller effectively plays the role of a mortgage bank.

10. Paid $31 ,000 maintenance on equipment in (4) during its first year of use.
Answer:
Options 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 9 are capital expenditure.
Options 1, 3, and 10 are the immediate expenses.
Option 5 is Neither.
Explanation:
Capital expenditure is those expenditures that are incurred to maintain the fixed assets. Thus Options 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 9 are capital expenditure. While the expenses that are compulsory and immediate in nature are called the immediate expenses. This means if the equipment requires repairing then it will fall in the category of immediate expense because without repairing it won't work. Therefore, a property tax of $75000, repair of the main plant, and maintenance for equipment are immediate expenses.

When the units are finally sold, Cost of Goods Sold is recognized (Debit) and the Finished Goods Account is De-recognized (Credit).
Q3) At an output level of 45,000 units, you calculate that the degree of operating leverage is 2.79. If output rises to 48,000 units, what will the percentage change in operating cash flow be
Answer: 18.6%
Explanation:
Degree of operating leverage = % change in Operating cash flow / % change in output
% change in Output
= [tex]\frac{48,000 - 45,000}{45,000}[/tex]
= 6.7%
Degree of operating leverage = % change in Operating cash flow / % change in output
2.79 = % change in Operating cash flow/ 6.7%
% change in Operating cash flow = 2.79 * 6.7%
% change in Operating cash flow = 18.6%

assuming it is stored safely how long after It was prepared can refrigerated food be sold or served 1-7 days b-10 days c-14 days d-20 days
Answer:
1-7 days
Explanation:
But, ideally 4 days should be the maximum for prepared food to be refrigerated before it is sold or served.
Leaving food refrigerated for a long time makes it to lose its nutrients. Some foods like potatoes, meat, eggs, chicken, etc. can become harmful or poisonous, especially when you reheat them before eating. That is why it is right to adhere to proper routines for refrigerating food and also preparing and serving the food. Some healthy food are better eaten immediately after their preparation.

Exercise 10-6 Direct Materials and Direct Labor Variances [LO10-1, LO10-2] Huron Company produces a commercial cleaning compound known as Zoom. The direct materials and direct labor standards for one unit of Zoom are given below: Standard Quantity or Hours Standard Price or Rate Standard Cost Direct materials 7.40 pounds $ 2.60 per pound $ 19.24 Direct labor 0.45 hours $ 8.00 per hour $ 3.60 During the most recent month, the following activity was recorded: 12,100.00 pounds of material were purchased at a cost of $2.50 per pound. All of the material purchased was used to produce 1,500 units of Zoom. 575 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $5,750. Required: 1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the month. 2. Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances for the month.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct material:
Standard= 7.40 pounds $ 2.60 per pound
Actual= 12,100 pounds of material were purchased for $2.50 per pound.
Direct labor:
Standard= 0.45 hours $ 8.00 per hour
Actual= 575 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $5,750
Units produced= 1,500
To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Direct material price variance= (2.6 - 2.5)*12,100
Direct material price variance= $1,210 favorable
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
standard quantity= 1,500*7.4= 11,100
Direct material quantity variance= (11,100 - 12,100)*2.6
Direct material quantity variance= $2,600 unfavorable
To calculate the direct labor efficiency and rate variance, we need to use the following formulas:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
Standard quantity= 1,500*0.45= 675
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (675 - 575)*8
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $800 favorable
Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity
Actual rate= 5,750/575= $10
Direct labor rate variance= (8 - 10)*575
Direct labor rate variance= $1,150 unfavorable
Consider a service company that provides carpet cleaning and uses straight-line depreciation. Classify the cost of the depreciation on the carpet cleaning machines.
a. Fixed
b. Indirect
Answer:
Both :
a. Fixed and,
b. Indirect
Explanation:
The depreciation expense on production machinery form part of the product or service cost.
The cost however, can not be traced to the product or service that is why it is an Indirect cost as opposed to the direct costs which can be traced directly on the product or service.
Straight line method charges a fixed amount of depreciation thus the depreciation is a fixed charge.
