A firm has an Inventory turnover (IT) of 5 times a year on a cost of goods sold (COGS) of $800,000. If the firm improves the inventory turnover to 8 times a year while the COGS remains the same, which of the following statements is true?
a $100,000 is additionally invested in purchasing stock.
b. $160,000 is released into the working capital.
C. $60,000 is additionally invested into purchasing stock
d. $60,000 is released into the working
Answer:
d. $60,000 is released into the working
Explanation:
A high inventory indicates that a company sells its stock many times in a year. It means its costs of managing inventory decreases.
The inventory turnover ratio is calculated as below
=Cost of goods sold/ average inventory
If COGS = $800,000 and the inventory turnover ratio =5,
the average inventory will be
=$800,000 /5
=$160,000
With a turnover of 8, and COGS remain $800,000, average inventory will now be
=$800,000/8
=$100,000
The average inventory will decrease to $100,000 from $160,000 previously.
$60,000 will be released to working capital.
During a six month period, a department had planned sales of $75,000 and planned turnover of 2.6. Using the Basic Stock Method, determine the BOM stock for February, if planned sales for February are $10,500.
Answer:
the BOM stock is $26,846
Explanation:
The computation of the BOM stock for the feb month is shown below:
But before that following calculations need to be done
Average stock is
= net sales ÷ stock turnover
= $75,000 ÷ 2.6
= $28,846
Now the basic stock is
= Average stock - monthly sales
= $28,846 - ($75,000 ÷ 6)
= $16,346
And, finally BOM stock is
= Planned sales + basic stock
= $10,500 + $16,346
= $26,846
hence, the BOM stock is $26,846

You are the manager of a firm that sells its product in a competitive market at a price of $50. Your firm's cost function is C = 40 + 5Q2. The profit-maximizing output for your firm is
Answer: Q = 5
Explanation:
In a competitive market, the profit maximising quantity is the quantity at which Marginal Cost is equal to Marginal revenue.
In a competitive market, price is equal to marginal revenue so marginal revenue is $50.
Marginal cost would be the differential of the cost function;
= 40 + 5Q²
= (2 * 5) * Q
= 10Q
10Q = 50
Q = 50/10
Q = 5

All of the following would have to be reviewed by a principal EXCEPT: A Letters recommending securities to all clients of a registered representative B Complaint letters received from customers C Form letters mailed to all customers D Form letters for internal use within a firm
Answer:
D Form letters for internal use within a firm
Explanation:
A principal is a shareholder that has 10% or more of the voting shares of a company that is privately held or publicly traded.
Principals take into consideration SEC rules for insider trading.
The principal studies various activities such as Letters recommending securities to all clients of a registered representative, Complaint letters received from customers, Form letters mailed to all customers.
This is done to ensure he makes informed decisions regarding investment.
Usually other shareholders take a cue from investing activities of the principal.
Form letters for internal use do not determine share performance, so it is not reviewed by a principal.
Principal is different from majority shareholder who has 50% of more of voting shares.

You make $40,000 per year. You have been offered a promotion and a $5,000 raise per year. Your average federal income tax rate will go up from 10% to 15% per year. Should you take the new job and the raise?
Answer:
Yes, Accept the new Job and raise
Explanation:
With the old Job, the annual income is $40,000 and a tax rate of 10%.
The annual tax obligation is 10% of $40,000
=10/100 x $40,000
=0.1 x $40,000
=$4,000
Annual take home is $40,000 -$4,000
=$36,000
With the new salary, the tax obligation will be
Tax rate=15%
Salary =$45,000
=15/100 x $45,000
=0.15 x $45,000
$6,750
The new take home pay is $45,000- $,6750
=$38,250
With the new Job, the take-home pay increases from $36,000 to $38,250.
The new Job and raise should be accepted.

Answer: d. difference between future cost savings and the new equipment's costs.
Explanation:
When deciding whether or not to replace old equipment, the main thing the company should be concerned about is if the new equipment is worth it. This worth will be measured by how much it saves for the company over the old equipment vs its cost.
If the cost of the equipment is less than the future savings it will bring in, it should be bought to replace the old equipment because it would be contributing more than it costs. If the reverse is true then it should not be bought.

Therefore, the internal rate of return is 7.5%
Digital Fruit is financed solely by common stock and has outstanding 40 million shares with a market price of $20 a share. It now announces that it intends to issue $310 million of debt and to use the proceeds to buy back common stock. There are no taxes. a. What is the expected market price of the common stock after the announcement
Answer:
Digital Fruit
The expected market price of the common stock after the announcement is:
$20 per share.
Explanation:
Outstanding number of shares = 40 million
Market price of outstanding shares = $20 a share
Total market capitalization = $800 million
Debts introduced = $310 million
Market capitalization after the debt issue = $490 million ($800 - 310 million)
Number of shares bought back = $310 million /$20 = 15,500,000
Outstanding number of shares after the buy-back = 40 million minus 15.5 million
= 24,500,000 shares
Expected market price of the common stock after the announcement
= $490,000,000/24,500,000
= $20 per share

Pakistan International Airlines is the national flag-carrier of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. PIA was founded on October 23, 1946 as Orient Airways based in Calcutta (now Kolkata) in British India. In 1955, Orient Airways was nationalized and merged with other airlines to form ‘Pakistan International Airlines.’ In the decades from the 1950s to the 1970s, PIA was ranked amongst the best airlines in the world. This was acclaimed to be the golden era for Pakistan International Airlines when it provided administrative and technical support to many other airlines, including Emirates. Some of the aviation records set by PIA pilots in those days still stand to this day.
Today, PIA is wracked by many administrative and human resource related problems notably corruption, inefficiency, favoritism, nepotism and overstaffing. Safety has also become a major concern after numerous scandals relating to the qualifications of PIA personnel, and the recent crash in Karachi in May, 2020, that killed 97 people.

Explanation:
You are a real estate owner in Bloomington Indiana and you have rented a house to students. You expect to make 6% per year on this leasehold investment. The terms of the lease are for 24 months and the rent is due at the beginning of the month. Your savvy renters are Kelley students and they request that the rent be paid, instead, at the end of the month. How much more will the investor receive as a result of payments at the beginning of the month rather than the student's proposed payments at the end of the month over the entire life of the lease?
Answer:
The present value of the contract is 0.5% higher if the rent is paid at the beginning of the month. That is equal to $11.28 for every $100 of rent.
Explanation:
if the rent is paid at the beginning of the month, the present value of the lease contract will be:
PV = monthly rent x PV annuity due factor
we are not given the monthly rent, but we know the PV annuity due factor for 0.5% and 24 periods = 22.67568
if the rent is paid at the end of the month, the PV = monthly rent x PV ordinary annuity factor
the PV ordinary annuity factor, 0.5%, 24 periods = 22.56287
assuming that the rent is $100 (just to calculate a %), the PV of an annuity due = $2,267.57
the PV of an ordinary annuity = $2,256.29
the difference between them = [($2,267.57 / $2,256.29) - 1] x 100 = 0.5%
You are graduating from college at the end of this semester and have decided to invest $ at the end of each year into a Roth IRA (a retirement investment account that grows tax free and is not taxed when it is liquidated) for the next years. If you earn percent compounded annually on your investment of $ at the end of each year, how much will you have when you retire in years? How much will you have if you wait 10 years before beginning to save and only make payments into your retirement account?
Answer:
the numbers are missing, so I looked for similar questions:
You are graduating from college at the end of this semester and have decided to invest $5,000 at the end of each year into a Roth IRA, (which is a retirement investment account that grows tax free and is not taxed when it is liquidated) for the next 45 years. If you earn 8 percent compounded annually on your investment of $5,000 at the end of each year, how much will you have when you retire in 45 years? How much will you have if you wait 10 years before beginning to save and only make 35 payments into your retirement account?
We have to determine the future value of an annuity:
FV = annual contribution x FV annuity factor
annual contribution = $5,000
FV annuity factor, 45 periods, 8% = 386.50562
FV = $5,000 x 386.505662 = $1,932.528
if you wait 10 years before starting to save, then the future value will be:
FV = annual contribution x FV annuity factor
annual contribution = $5,000
FV annuity factor, 45 periods, 8% = 172.3168
FV = $5,000 x 172.3168 = $861,584

The bank you own has the following balance sheet: Assets Liabilities Reserves $75 million Deposits $500 million Loans $525 million Bank capital $100 million If the bank suffers a deposit outflow of $50 million with a required reserve ratio on deposits of 10%, what actions should you take
Answer:
Explanation:
Calculation of the amount of required reserve as follows:
Required Reserve = Deposit * required reserve ratio
= $500 million * 10%
= $50 million
Therefore, the bank must hold $50 million in required reserve.
It currently has $75 million in reserve so this requirement is met.
If the bank suffers a deposit outflow of $50 million
Assets Liabilities
Reserves - $25 million Deposits - $450 million
Loans - $525 million Bank capital - $100 million
So the required reserve is $450 * 10/100 = $45 million.
But in the reserve account we have only 25 million so we are falling short of $20 million. We need to maintain this required reserve so we can take following actions: 1. By borrowing $20 millions from other bank or financial institutions or corporations. 2. We can sell securities of $20 million. 3. We can borrow some money and can raise some money by issuing securities.
