Answer: 22.84%
Explanation:
Operating profit before interest and tax = $508,848
Less: net nonoperating expense before tax = $107,301
Earning before tax = $508,848 - $107,301 = $401,547
Provision for income taxes = $91,720
Effective tax rate = Provision for income taxes / Earning before tax × 100
= 91720/401547 × 100
= 0.2284 × 100
= 22.84%
Shares of Corporation have a beta of 0.90. The market risk premium is 7%, and
the risk-free rate is 8%. Corporation paid a dividend of $1.80 per share, and the
dividend is expected to grow at 7% forever. The share currently sells for $25.
Corporation has a debt-equity ratio of 50%. Its cost of debt is 8%, before taxation,
taxation rate is 30%.
What is the weighted average cost of capital of Corporation?
Answer:
The weighted average cost of capital of Corporation is 11.4%
Explanation:
Now use following formula to calculate the weighted average cost of equity
WACC = ( Weight of equity x Cost of equity ) + ( Weight of debt x Cost of debt (after tax ) )
Weight
Equity = 100%
Debt = 50%
Cost
First we need to calculate the cost of equity using CAPM formula
Cost of equity = Risk free rate + Beta x ( Market risk premium )
Placing values in the formula
Cost of equity = 8% + 0.90 x 7%
Cost of equity = 14.3%
Cost of debt = 8%
Cost of debt (after tax ) = 8% x ( 1 - 30% ) = 5.6%
Placing values in the formula of Weighted average cost of capital
WACC = ( ( 100%/150% ) x 14.3% ) + ( ( 50% / 150% ) x 5.6% )
WACC = 9.53% + 1.87%
WACC = 11.4%
Assuming that the price elasticity of demand for slinkys (slinkys are a metal spring-like children's toy) is 2, an increase in the price of slinkys of 15% would result in (for slinkys) ___________a. an increase in the quantity supplied of 30%b. a decrease in demand of 30%c. a decrease in the quantity demanded of 7.5%d. a decrease in the quantity demanded of 30%
Answer: d. a decrease in the quantity demanded of 30%
Explanation:
Price elasticity of a good is used to measure the magnitude of change in the quantity demanded of the good as a result of a change in price.
Price elasticity = Change in Quantity demanded / Change in Price
2 = Change in quantity demanded / 15%
Change in Quantity demanded = 2 * 15% = 30%
The elasticity is listed as positive but is supposed to be negative even though this can cause confusion. Normal goods are assumed to have a negative elasticity so unless stated otherwise, assume elasticity is negative.
This is why the change is a decrease in quantity demanded.

Geralds manufacturing firm sold goods worth $6000 to some customers on credit in the month of January. His customers plan to pay him the entire amount at once in March. Gerald plans to record and recognize this income in the business’s accounts in March. Which accounting method does Geralds business follow?
His business follows the (________) method of accounting.
Answer:
Cash accounting method
Explanation:
The cash accounting method records receipts and expenses during the period in which cash changes hands. In this method, revenue will be recorded when payment from a customer is received. Expenses are not recorded unless money is paid out. In short, revenues and expenses are recognized and recorded only when cash is received or paid.
Cash accounting contrasts with the accrual accounting system, which recognizes revenues and expenses when their respective events occur.
Denise sells silk scarves at a hobby fair. Each scarf sells for $25 and has a variable cost of $15. Denise’s booth rental for one day is $30. Based on this information, what total revenue amount does Denise need to earn to break-even?
Answer:
Break-even point (dollars)= $75
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Each scarf sells for $25 and has a variable cost of $15. Denise’s booth rental for one day is $30.
To calculate the break-even point in dollars, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 30 / [(25 - 15)/25]
Break-even point (dollars)= $75

Paul agrees to sell his clothing store to Michael and, as part of the sale, to execute a covenant not to compete promising not to open a similar store within one thousand miles for the next twenty years. A court reviewing the terms of the covenant would likely find that it is:________. a) unenforceable because all covenants not to compete are unreasonable. b) unreasonable as to both geographical scope and duration c) unreasonable with regard to duration d) enforceable
Answer:
d) enforceable
Explanation:
A court reviewing the terms of the covenant would likely find that it is enforceable. This is a standard clause found in many contracts and is also known as Non-compete clause. It is standard because a seller that has the experience of running a similar business can sell the business collect the profit from the sale and open create another similar business with little to no capital and quickly outperform their previous business due to the amount of experience that they have. In order to prevent this, many buyers require this clause to be added to the sales contract.

Explanation:
A series of monthly cash flows is deposited into an account that earns 12% nominal interest compounded monthly. Each monthly deposit is equal to $2,100. The first monthly deposit occurred on June 1, 2008 and the last monthly deposit will be on January 1, 2015. The account also has equivalent quarterly withdrawals from it. The first quarterly withdrawal is equal to $5,000 and occurred on October 1, 2008. The last $5,000 withdrawal will occur on January 1, 2015. How much remains in the account after the last withdrawal?
Answer:
The amount left in the account after last withdrawal is $61,945
Explanation:
The first monthly deposit occurred on June 1, 2008 and the last monthly deposit will be on January 1, 2015 = 80 deposit
Monthly deposit = 2,100
Interest rate = 12% / 1% per month
Firstly, we calculate the future worth of the monthly deposit
FW = A(F/A, i, n)
A = 2,100, i = 1%, n= 80
FW = $2100*[(1+0.01)^80 - 1 / 0.01]
FW = $2100*[2.216715 - 1 / 0.01]
FW = $2100*(121.671)
FW = $255,509.10
We calculate the effective interest rate
i(effective) = (1 + i nominal monthly interest rate)^n - 1
i `%, n = 3(no of months in quarter)
i (effective) = (1+0.01)^3 - 1
i (effective) = (1.01)^3 - 1
i (effective) = 1.030301 - 1
i (effective) = 0.030301
i (effective) = 3.0301%
The effective quarterly interest rate is 3.0301%
We calculate the future worth of the quarterly drawings
FW = A[(1+i)^n - 1 / i]
A = 5,000(drawing), i = 3.0301%, n = 26(number of drawings)
FW = 5,000*[(1+0.030301)^26 - 1 / 0.030301]
FW = 5,000*[2.17303717 - 1 / 0.030301]
FW = 5,000*(38.71282)
FW = $193,564.10
The future worth of the quarterly withdrawal is $193,564.10
We calculate the amount left in the account after last withdrawal
Amount left in account = FW(monthly deposits) - FW(quarterly drawings)
Amount left in account = $255,509.10 - $193,564.10
Amount left in account = $61,945
Thus, the amount left in the account after last withdrawal is $61,945

XYZ company is analyzing a proposed project. The company expects to sell 1,500 units, ±3 percent. The expected variable cost per unit is $220 and the expected fixed costs are $438,000. Cost estimates are considered accurate within a ±2 percent range. The depreciation expense is $64,000. The sales price is estimated at $647 per unit, ±2 percent. What is the sales revenue under the worst-case scenario?
Answer:
$922,557.30
Explanation:
Sales revenue = Quantity sold * Price
a. Worst case quantity = 1500*97% = 1455
b. Worst case price = 647*98% = $634.06
Sales revenue under worst case = 1455*$634.06
Sales revenue under worst case = $922,557.3

While intangible assets have no physical shape or size, they pack lots of power for your business. If you and your employees have worked hard to create trademarks, patents, or copyrights, for example, you can use these assets in several ways to grow your business or increase business profit.
What are Intangible Assets?
An Intangible Asset is a business asset which has no material substance. Intangible assets can be found in all areas of a business. For example:
Technology, like technical manuals, engineering processes, computer software
Customer relationships,
Contracts, franchises, licenses, and permits
Trained and competent workers (called workforce in place)
Some intangible assets are intellectual property. That is, they are specifically created by individuals and protected by laws from being stolen. Examples of intellectual property are trademarks, service marks, copyrights, and patents.
Customer relationships, including goodwill (the value of customer relationships),
Trade secrets, brand recognition, and proprietary business processes ("the way we do things in this company")
Marketing and advertising campaigns and materials
Location-related assets like land, water, and mineral rights.
How to Use Intangible Assets
Selling Intangible Assets
Some general intangibles, like business processes, can be packaged and sold. Create and sell a book on "the way we do things at XYZ company," with examples of how you did it. You don't have to give away all of your trade secrets, though. Just those that can be translated into other types of businesses.
You can also sell a copyright. Musicians often sell a music copyright, but more often they license the rights. These licenses are called Creative Commons Licenses.
Use Them to Increase Value in the Sale of Your Business
Goodwill is an important asset in the sale of a business. In a business sale, particularly one in which you are selling the business as a going concern, goodwill is the difference between the fair market price or book value of all the business assets and the sale price.
Other general intangible assets and intellectual property may also be valued and included in the selling price of a business.
License or Assign Assets Like Patents, Copyrights, and Trademarks
If your business has patents or trademarks, you can license the patent rights to someone, who can produce products from them. You can receive royalties on a continuing basis and set up criteria for use of the products made from these assets.
You may also want to consider assigning an asset, as a permanent sale.
Amortize Intangible Assets
Amortization is a calculation which allows you to spread out the expense of an intangible asset over its useful life, instead of capitalizing it in just one year. Amortization works like depreciation. Having expenses in several years allows you to reduce your business income during these years, thus reducing your business tax bill.
Under Section 197 of the Internal Revenue Code, the IRS designates certain intangible assets that can be amortized over 15 years and other intangible assets which cannot be amortized. The complete list is on Section 197 Intangible Assets.
Getting Help from an Intellectual Property Attorney
For most of these ways to use your intangible assets, you will need to hire a special attorney called an intellectual property lawyer, who can help you navigate the tricky world of selling and licensing.

In 2010, real GDP was $13.2 trillion and nominal GDP was $14.6 trillion. What was the GDP deflator for that year?a. 9.6% lower b. 9.6% higher c. 10.6% lower . d. 10.6% higher
Answer:
d. 10.6% higher
Explanation:
Given that;
Real GDP = $13.2 trillion
Nominal GDP = $14.6 trillion
GDP deflator = (Nominal GDP/Real GDP)× 100)
Hence,
GDP deflator = (14.6 / 13.2 ) × 100
GDP deflator = 110.6%
Thus,
= 110.6 - 100
= 10.6% higher
Tri-coat Paints has a current market value of $41 per share with earnings of $3.64. What is the present value of its growth opportunities (PVGO) if the required return is 9%?
Answer:
the present value of its growth opportunities (PVGO) is $0.56
Explanation:
The computation of the present value of growth opportunities is shown below:
= Price per share - (Earnings ÷ required rate of return)
= $41 - ($3.64 ÷ 9%)
= $41 - $40.44
= $0.56
hence, the present value of its growth opportunities (PVGO) is $0.56
We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

Wendy is a single taxpayer with adjusted gross income of $92,300 for tax year 2019. She has rental income of $55,000 and rental expenses of $80,000. What can Wendy report on her tax return given this situation?
a. She can deduct $10,000 because her rental expenses exceeded her rental income
b. She can deduct $15,000 because her rental expenses exceeded her rental income
c. She can deduct $25,000 because her rental expenses exceeded her rental income
Answer: c. She can deduct $25,000 because her rental expenses exceeded her rental income
Explanation:
You are allowed a deduction when your rent expenses exceeds your rent income by the amount that the rent expense exceeds your net income by however, this deduction is limited to a maximum of $25,000.
This only applies however if the tax payer's adjusted gross income for the year is less than $100,000 which it is in this case.
= Rental expense - rent income
= 80,000 - 55,000
= $25,000
She can deduct $25,000.
The correct option is c. She can deduct $25,000 because her rental expenses exceeded her rental income
The calculation is as follows:
= Rental expense - rent income
= 80,000 - 55,000
= $25,000
She can deduct $25,000.

What is the price of a stock today if it pays a Dividend TODAY of $2. Its growth rate is 5%, and its market return is 12%?
Answer:
$30.00
Explanation:
The price of the stock can be derived from the stock theoretical price formula given and explained below:
stock price=expected dividend/(market return-growth rate)
expected dividend=dividend paid today*(1+growth rate)
expected dividend=$2*(1+5%)
expected dividend=$2.10
market rate of return=12%
growth rate=5%
stock price=$2.10/(12%-5%)
stock price=$2.10/7%
stock price=$30.00

Paid cach Rs 900 after deducting 10% cash discount
Answer:
I'm assuming you're looking for the original price? That would be $990 before the 10% discount.
Explanation:
You purchase a Par Value $1,000, 9% coupon, two-year maturity bond for $990. What is the annual required rate of return (YTM)?
Answer:
the annual required rate of return is 9.57%
Explanation:
The computation of the required rate of return is shown below:
Given that
Future value = $1,000
Present value = $990
PMT = $1,000 × 9% = $90
NPER = 2
The formula is shown below:
=RATE(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;TYPE)
The present value comes in negative
After applying the above formula, the annual required rate of return is 9.57%
The Backwoods American company in Problem 2.1 produces approximately 20,000 parkas annually. The quality management program the company implemented was able to improve the average percentage of good parkas produced by 2% each year, beginning with 83% good-quality parkas in 2012. Only about 20% of poor-quality parkas can be reworked.
Total (not per parka) direct manufacturing cost is given below:
Year 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007
Direct Manufacturing Cost $420,900 $423,400 $424,700 $436,100 $435,500
A) Compute the product yield for each of the five years.
B) Using a rework cost of $12 per parka, determine the manufacturing cost per good parka for each of the five years. What you can you conclude about the improvement process?
Answer:
a. 2003 product yield = 20,000(0.83) + 20,000 (1 - 0.83)(0.20)
= 16,600 + 680
= 17,280 parkas
2004 product yield = 20,000*(0.85) + 20,000*(0.15)(0.20)
= 17,000 + 600
= 17,600 parkas
2005 product yield = 20,000*(0.87) + 20,000*(0.13)(0.20)
= 17,400 + 520
= 17,920 parkas
2006 product yield = 20,000*(0.89) + 20,000*(0.11)(0.20)
= 17,800 + 440
= 18,240 parkas
2007 product yield = 20,000*(0.91) + 20,000*(0.09)(0.20)
= 18,200 + 360
= 18,560 parkas
b. 2003 manufacturing cost per good parka = 420,900 + 12*(20,000)(0.17)(0.20) /17,280
= 420,900 + 12 (680) / 17,280
= 429,060 /17,280
= $24.83
2004 manufacturing cost per good parka = 423,400 + 12*(600) /17,600
= 430,600 /17,600
= $24.47
2005 manufacturing cost per good parka = 424,700 + 12*(520) / 17,920
= 430,940 /17,920
= $24.05
2006 manufacturing cost per good parka = 436,100 + 12*(440) / 18,240
= 441,380 /18,240
= $24.20
2007 manufacturing cost per good parka = 435,500 + 12 *(360) /18,560
= 439,820 / 18,560
= $23.70

In the previous problem, suppose the project requires an initial investment in net working capital of $150,000, and the fixed asset will have a market value of $185,000 at the end of the project. What is the project’s Year 0 net cash flow?
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
You didn't tell us the previous problem you are talking about but let me help out.
The project’s Year 0 net cash flow will be calculated as:
= - Initial cost in fixed assets - Net working capital
Since we already know that our net working capital is $150,000, let's assume that the initial cost in fixed assets given in your previous problem is $2,000,000.
