Bryant Co. has $2.7 million of debt, $1 million of preferred stock, and $2.1 million of common equity. What would be its weight on preferred stock
Answer:
0.172
Explanation:
The computation of the weight on the preferred stock is shown below:
Weight on preferred stock is
= Preferred stock ÷(Debt + preferred stock + common equity)
= $1 million ÷ ($2.7 million + $1 million + $2.1 million)
= $1 million ÷ $5.8 million
= 0.172
By applying the above formula we can easily determine the weight on preferred stock
Suppose the price level and value of the U.S. Dollar in year 1 are 1 and $1, respectively. Instructions: Round your answers to 2 decimal places. a. If the price level rises to 1.55 in year 2, what is the new value of the dollar
Answer: $0.65
Explanation:
The Price Level and the value of a currency are inversely related because inflation erodes the value of the currency. Therefore if the price level increases, the value of the currency drops. The reverse is true.
The formula therefore is is;
New Value = [tex]\frac{1}{Price Level}[/tex]
New Value = [tex]\frac{1}{1.55}[/tex]
New Value = 0.6452
New Value = $0.65
Pell Corporation is a company that manufactures computers.

The company allocated manufacturing overhead of $150, 000 using a predetermined overhead rate of $ 10.00 per machine hour. The total actual manufacturing overhead costs are $84. What entry would Pell make to adjust the manufacturing overhead account for overallocated or underallocated overload?
Answer:
Adjusting entry is given below
Explanation:
DATA
Estimated Overhead = $150,000
Actual Overhead = $84,000
Under/Over allocated =?
Solution
Under/Over allocated Overhead = Estimated Overhead - Actual Overhead
Under/Over allocated Overhead = $150,000 - $84,000
Under/Over allocated Overhead = $66,000
We had over-allocated manufacturing overhead with $66,000
To adjust manufacturing Overhead account we should make the following entry
Entry DEBIT CREDIT
Manufacturing Overhead $66,000
Cost of goods sold $66,000
Given the following cash flows for a capital project, calculate its payback period and discounted payback period. The required rate of return is 8 percent.
Year
0 1 2 3 4 5
Glass Flows $51100 $13150 $16050 $23900 $12400 $3050
The discounted payback period is:________.
a. 0.39 year longer than the payback period.
b. 0.64 year longer than the payback period.
c. 0.76 years longer than the payback period.
d. 0.25 years longer than the payback period.
Answer:
c. 0.76 years longer than the payback period.
Explanation:
Payback period calculates how long it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from its cumulative cash flows.
the amounted invested in the project = $-51100
In year 1, the amount recovered = $-51,100 + $13150 = $-37,950
In year 2, the amount recovered = $-37,950 + $16050 = $-21,900
In year 3, the amount recovered = $-21,900 + $23900 = $2000
the amount invested is recovered in 2 + 21,900 / 23900 = 2.92 years
Discounted payback period calculates how long it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from its cumulative cash flows.
discounted cash flows
$13150 / 1.08 = $12,175.93
$16050 / 1.08^2 = $13,760.29
$23900 / 1.08^3 = $18972.59
$12400 / 1.08^4 = $9114.37
the amount is recovered in 3 + 6191.19 / 9114.37 = 3.68 years
the discounted payback is longer than the payback period by 3.68 years - 2.92 years = 0.76 years
Suppose the economy is in a recession. The economy needs to expand by at least $300 billion, and the marginal propensity to consume is 0.6. What is the least amount the government can spend to overcome the $300 billion gap
Answer: $120 billion
Explanation:
Fron the question, we are told that an economy is in a recession and needs to expand by at least $300 billion, and the marginal propensity to consume is 0.6.
The least amount the government can spend to overcome the $300 billion gap goes thus:
Since MPC = 0.6, then the multiplier will be:
= 1/(1-MPC)
= 1/(1-0.6)
= 1/0.4
=2.5
We are also informed that the required change in the money supply is $300 billion. Then, the investment needed will be:
= Expansion/Multiplier
= $300 billion/2.5
= $120 billion
"Alou Company has 20,000 beginning finished goods units. Budgeted sales units are 160,000. If management desires 15,000 ending finished goods units, what are the required units of production
Answer:
155,000
Explanation:
The computation of the required units of production is shown below:-
Required units of production = Sales units + Ending finished goods - Beginning finished goods
= 160,000 units + 15,000 units - 20,000 units
= 155,000
Therefore for computing the required units of production we simply applied the above formula.

Stu deposited $400 in an account three years ago. Last year, he deposited $250 and plans to deposit $300 next year. The rate is 3 percent. Which one of these correctly states a portion of the formula needed to compute the future value five years from today
Answer and Explanation:
Future value = Present value x (1+i)^n, where
n = number of years
I = interest rate
From the question n = 8 years for the amount $400 ,
n= 7years for $250 ,
n=4years for $300
interest = 3%= 0.03
Future value of $400 = 400 (1 + 0.03)^8 = $506.71
Future value of $ 250 = 250 (1+0.03)^7 = $307.47
Future value of $ 300 =300(1+0.03)^4 = $337.65

A bond has a $1,000 par value, 20 years to maturity, and pays a coupon of 5.5% per year, annually. The bond is callable in ten years at $1,075. If the bond’s yield to maturity is 5.89% per year, what is its yield to call? Question 13 options: A) 5.87% B) 6.57% C) 6.11% D) 6.43% E) 6.68%
Answer:
6.68% , option E is correct
Explanation:
The price of the bond can be computed using the below formula for bond price calculation:
bond price=face value/(1+r)^n+coupon*(1-(1+r)^-n)/r
face value is $1000
r is the yield to maturity which is 5.89%
coupon=face value*coupon rate=1000*5.5%=55
n is the number of coupons the bond would pay which is 11 coupons over 20 years
bond price=1000/(1+5.89%)^20+55*(1-(1+5.89%)^-20)/5.89%
bond price=$ 954.87
The yield on the call can be determined using excel rate function as further explained below:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the number of coupons the bond would pay before being called in ten years' time i.e 10 coupons
pmt is the is the amount of annual coupon=$1000*5.5%=$55
pv is the current price of $954.87
fv is the call price which is $1,075
=rate(10,55,-954.87,1075)=6.68%

Ending inventory 97,400 87,750 92,500
Required:
(a) Use the above information to compute inventory turnover for 2016, and its days' sales in inventory at December 31, 2016.
Numerator / Denominator = Ratio
Inventory turnover $426,650 / $90,125 = 4.7 times
Days' sales in inventory ?
(b) Use the above information to compute inventory turnover for 2017, and its days' sales in inventory at December 31, 2017.
Numerator / Denominator = Ratio
Inventory turnover $643,825 / $92,575 = 7.0times
Days' sales in inventory ?
Answer:
a.
i. 4.7 times
ii. 77.1 days
b
i. 7 times
ii. 52.1 days
Explanation:
Inventory turnover = cost of goods sold / average inventory
average inventory for 2016 = ( 87,750 + 92,500 ) / 2 = $90,125
Inventory turnover $426,650 / $90,125 = 4.7 times
Days' sales in inventory = 365 / inventory turnover = 77.1 days
for 2017
inventory turnover = cost of goods sold / average inventory
average inventory for 2017 = ( 97,400 + 87,750 ) / 2 = $92,575
Inventory turnover $643,825 / $92,575 = 7.0 times
Days' sales in inventory = 365 / inventory turnover = 52.1 days
Danaher Woodworking Corporation produces fine furniture. The company uses a job-order costing system in which its predetermined overhead rate is based on capacity. The capacity of the factory is determined by the capacity of its constraint, which is an automated lathe. Additional information is provided below for the most recent month: Estimates at the beginning of the month: Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead $ 36,400 Capacity of the lathe 400 hours Actual results: Actual total fixed manufacturing overhead $ 36,400 Actual hours of lathe use 380 hours Required: a. Calculate the predetermined overhead rate based on capacity. b. Calculate the manufacturing overhead applied. c. Calculate the cost of unused capacity.
Answer:
a. Calculate the predetermined overhead rate based on capacity.
$91 per lathe hourb. Calculate the manufacturing overhead applied.
$34,580c. Calculate the cost of unused capacity.
$1,820Explanation:
Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead $36,400
Capacity of the lathe 400 hours
predetermined overhead rate per lathe hour = $36,400 / 400 = $91
actual results:
Actual total fixed manufacturing overhead $36,400
Actual hours of lathe use 380 hours
applied overhead = $91 x 380 lathe hours = $34,580
cost of unused capacity = $36,400 - $34,580 = $1,820
Lincoln Park Co. has a bond outstanding with a coupon rate of 5.66 percent and semiannual payments. The yield to maturity is 6.3 percent and the bond matures in 16 years. What is the market price if the bond has a par value of $2,000?
Answer:
Market price of Bond = $1872.135629 rounded off to $1872.14
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 a semi annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,
Coupon Payment (C) = 2000 * 0.0566 * 1/2 = $56.6
Total periods (n)= 16 * 2 = 32
r = 6.3% * 1/2 = 3.15% or 0.0315
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
Bond Price = 56.6 * [( 1 - (1+0.0315)^-32) / 0.0315] + 2000 / (1+0.0315)^32
Bond Price = $1872.135629 rounded off to $1872.14
Suppose that borrowing is restricted so that the zero-beta version of the CAPM holds. The expected return on the market portfolio is 17%, and on the zero-beta portfolio it is 8%. What is the expected return on a portfolio with a beta of .6?
Answer:
10.4%
Explanation:
The computation of expected return on a portfolio is shown below:-
Expected return = Risk Free return + 5%Beta ( Market Return - Risk Free return)
= 5% + 0.60 × (17% - 8%)
= 5% + 5.4%
= 10.4%
Therefore for computing the expected return on a portfolio with a beta of .6 we simply applied the above formula.
The market return less risk free return is known as market risk premium
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 1000,20 years to maturity, and a coupon rate of 6.6 percent paid annually.
If the yield to maturity is 8.9 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:
Price of bond = $786.86
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 would be worked out as follows:
Step 1
Calculate the PV of interest payments
Annual interest payment
= 6.6% × 1,000× 1/2= 33
PV of interest payment = A ×(1- (1+r)^(-n))/r
r- semi-annual yield = 8.9%/2 = 4.45 %
n- 20× 2= 40
PV of interest payment= 33 × (1-(1.0445^(-40)/0.0445 = 611.611
Step 2
PV of redemption Value
PV = RV × (1+r)^(-n)
PV = 1,000 × (1.0445)^(-40) = 175.25
Step 3
Price of bond
Price of bond= 611.611 + 175.25 = 786.862
Price of bond = $786.86

You invest a single amount of $14,800 for 7 years at 15 percent. At the end of 7 years you take the proceeds and invest them for 14 years at 17 percent. How much will you have after 21 years
Answer:
Value of investment after 21 years = $354,608.11
Explanation:
The value of an amount invested at a certain rate of return for certain number of years where interest compounded annually is known as the future value.
The future value of an investment can be determined using the future value formula. This formula is stated below:
FV = PV × (1+r)^(n)
FV - Future Value , PV- Present Value, r-rate of return, n- number of years
For the first round of investment 15% for 7 years, future value would be:
FV = 14,800 × (1.15)^(7) = 39,368.29
Second round of investing 17% for 14 year, future value would be
FV = 39,368.29 × (1.17)^(14)= 354,608.11
Future Value =$354,608.11
Value of investment after 21 years = $354,608.11

Gross Profit $72,200 $247,700
The White Division occupies 25,000 square feet in the plant. The Grey Division occupies 25,000 square feet. Hence, the rent expenses will be shared equally. Rent = $50,000 hence, both division will pay $25,000 each for rent
Through which strategy do you believe Lockheed Martin would be most profitable to pursue diversification?
Answer: Related diversification
Explanation:
Here is the complete question:
Lockheed Martin has been a recognized brand in technology for aeronautics and space systems fordecades. The U.S. government is Lockheed Martin’s main customer. Recently, as large-scale military actions have decreased across the globe, the government has been consuming less of Lockheed Martin’sofferings.
As a top of executive of Lockheed Martin, you’ve been asked to consider the opportunities to diversify into new markets in order to remain competitive and continue to increase profits.
Through which strategy do you believe Lockheed Martin would be most profitable to pursue diversification?
Related diversification occurs when a business or an organization expands its activities into similar product lines that to the ones it currently offers.
An example of related diversification is when a computer manufacturer starts making calculators.
By pursuing related diversification, Martin is exploring innovative products which are still within aeronautics scope.
According to the Keynesian transmission mechanism, an increase in the money supply causes a(n) __________ in the interest rate and a(n) __________ in investment, which in turn causes a(n) __________ in total expenditures and aggregate demand.
Answer: lower; rise; raises.
Explanation:
According to the Keynesian transmission mechanism, when there is an increase in money supply which is an expansionary policy, this will result into a reduction in the interest rate.
Since the interest rate has been reduced, this will lead to an increase the in investment as investors will be willing to borrow loan for investment opportunities and this will also lead to a rise in the total demand and expenditure.
The American car battery industry boasts that its recycling rate now exceeds 95%, the highest rate for any commodity. However, with changes brought about by specialization and globalization, parts of the recycling system are moving offshore. This is particularly true of automobile batteries, which contain lead. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is contributing to the offshore flow with newly implemented standards that make domestic battery recycling increasingly difficult and expensive. The result is a major increase in used batteries going to Mexico, where environmental standards and control are less demanding than they are in the U.S. One in five batteries is now exported to Mexico. There is seldom difficulty finding buyers because lead is expensive and in worldwide demand. While U.S. recyclers operate in sealed, mechanized plants, with smokestacks equipped with scrubbers and plant surroundings monitored for traces of lead, this is not the case in most Mexican plants. The harm from lead is legendary

We are facing two scenarios here. Both, ethical dilemmas that need to be solved.
1) as an independent auto repair shop owner that tries to safely dispose of a few old batteries each week. (Your battery supplier is an auto parts supplier who refuses to take your old batteries.)
In this case, I would check the original agreement with the supplier to see if there is a clause on old batteries management. If not, I would ask it to help me solve this issue because I am his client and has to take care of me and the environment. Otherwise, I would have to contemplate the option of changing supplier.
2) I am the manager of a large retailer responsible for the disposal of thousands of used batteries each day.
In this other case, I would follow the Environmental Department rules and regulations to comply with the correct procedures. This means to ask for support and orientation to get all the revisions to work properly. Because I know all the consequences of not recycling correctly or the damage done to humans and the environment. So although it could be more money, and would modernize my equipment to better manage the disposal of batteries. It would be an investment, not an expense.
Q 11.26: The board of directors of Testa Incorporated has decided that they would like to declare a $400,000 cash dividend at some point in the near future. The company currently has Retained Earnings of $2,419,000 and a Cash balance of $827,000. They also have current liabilities totaling $436,000. What is missing in order for Testa to be able to pay a cash dividend
Answer: B. : a healthy cash reserve
Explanation:
For the company to be able to declare a Dividend, it's cash reserve needs to be healthy. For this to happen use the following formula;
Free cash balance = Available cash balance - Current Liabilities payable
= 827,000 - 436,000
= $391,000
After taking out the money that will be needed to pay the Current Liabilities, there would be an insufficient balance to pay off the Dividends of $400,000.
Their cash reserve is not healthy enough for the dividends to be declared.
The thing that is missing in order for Testa to be able to pay a cash dividend is a healthy cash reserve.
It should be noted that for the company to be able to declare a dividend, it's important that the cash reserve is healthy.
The free cash balance can be calculated as:
= Available cash balance - Current Liabilities payable
= $827,000 - $436,000
= $391,000
When the current liabilities are paid, there would be an insufficient balance to pay off the dividends of $400,000. Therefore, a healthy cash reserve is required.

If Treasury bills are currently paying 6.5 percent and the inflation rate is 1.3 percent, what is the approximate and the exact real rate of interest
Answer:
the approximate real interest rate = nominal rate - inflation rate = 6.5% - 1.3% = 5.2%
the exact real interest rate is calculated using the following formula:
(1 + nominal interest rate) = (1 + real interest rate) (1 + expected rate of inflation)
(1 + 0.065) = (1 + real interest rate) x (1 + 0.013)
1 + real interest rate = (1 + 0.065) / (1 + 0.013) = 1.065 / 1.013 = 1.05133
real interest rate = 1.05133 - 1 = 0.05133 = 5.13%

The desired reserve ratio is 3 percent. Robert deposits $3,000 in Bank America. Bank America keeps its minimum desired reserves and lends the excess to Fredrica. How much does Bank America lend to Fredrica?
Answer: $2,910
Explanation:
Bank America is required by law to keep 3% of all deposits as reserves and they can lend the rest which they did to Fredrica.
The amount they lent to Fredrica therefore is;
= 3,000 (1 - 3%)
= 3,000 * 97%
= $2,910
Crystal Apple Sales Company began 2014 with cash of $2,000, inventory of $3,600 (200 crystal apples that cost $18 each), $2,500 of common stock, and $3,100 of retained earnings. The following events occurred during 2014.
1. Crystal Apple purchased additional inventory twice during 2018. The first purchase consisted of 800 apples that cost $20 each, and the second consisted of 1,200 apples that cost $24 each. The purchases were on account.
2. The company sold 2,040 apples for cash at a selling price of $40 each.
3. The company paid $44,800 cash on accounts payable for inventory purchases.
4. Crystal Apple paid $26,000 cash for operating expenses.
5. Assume an income tax rate of 30 percent. Crystal Apple paid income tax expense in cash.
Required:
a. Determine the ending inventory and cost of goods sold using the three different cost flow assumptions: FIFO, LIFO, and Weighted Average.
b. Prepare an income statement, a balance sheet, and a statement of cash flows under each of the three cost flow assumptions.
Answer and Explanation:
a. The computation of ending inventory and cost of goods sold using the three different cost flow assumptions: FIFO, LIFO, and Weighted Average is shown below:-
Cost of goods sold = (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,040 × (2,040-200-800)
= (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,040 × $24)
= $3,600 + $16,000 + $24,960
= $44,560
Ending Inventory Under FIFO = (1,200 - 1,040) × (2,040-200-800)
= 160 × $24
= $3,840
Under LIFO method
Cost of goods sold is
= (1,200 × $24) + (800 × $20) + (40 × $18)
= $28,800 + $16,000 + $720
= $45,520
Ending Inventory Under LIFO is
= (200 - 40) × $18
= 160 × $18
= $2,880
Weighted Average cost flow Assumption
Weighted Average cost per apple = Cost of Beginning inventory and purchase ÷ Total apple available
Cost of Beginning inventory and purchases is
= (200 × $18) + (800 × $20) + (1,200 × $24)
= $3,600 + $16,000 + $28,800
= $48,400
Total apples available is
= 200 + 800 + 1,200
= 2,200
Weighted Average cost per apple is
= $48,400 ÷ 2,200
= $22
Cost of goods sold is
= 2,040 × $22
= $44,880
Ending Inventory is
= 160 × $22
= $3,520
