RealTurf is considering purchasing an automatic sprinkler system for its sod farm by borrowing the entire $50,000 purchase price. The loan would be repaid with four equal annual payments at an interest rate of 12%/year. It is anticipated that the sprinkler system would be used for 9 years and then sold for a salvage value of $5,000. Annual operating and maintenance expenses for the system over the 9-year life are estimated to be $10,500 per year. If the new system is purchased, cost savings of $20,500 per year will be realized over the present manual watering system. RealTurf uses a MARR of 15%/year for economic decision making.What is the internal rate of return used to reach your decision?
Answer:
savings per year = $20,500 - $10,500 = $10,000
the loan and interest are not included in the calculation
initial outlay = $50,000
cash flows 1-8 = $10,000
cash flow 9 = $15,000
discount rate = 15%
using a financial calculator, the NPV = -$862.85, and the IRR = 14.53%

In the 1950s, imports and exports of goods and services constituted roughly 4% to 5% of U.S. GDP. In recent years, exports have accounted for approximately 12% of GDP, while imports have more than tripled to over 15% of GDP. Which of the following help to explain the increase in international trade and finance since the 1950s?
a. Better high-speed rail lines.
b. An increasing number of import quotas.
c. Services such as web conferencing and teleconferencing that facilitate international meetings.
d. International trade agreements that lower tariffs and import quotas.
Answer:
a. Better high-speed rail lines.
c. Services such as web conferencing and teleconferencing that facilitate international meetings.
d. International trade agreements that lower tariffs and import quotas.
Explanation:
Better high-speed rails have improved the speed and capacity to carry goods across countries thereby enabling imports to be done with more ease. This has increased both the exports to and imports for other countries.
Information Technology has also grown to the point where international meetings can be had online which means that trade agreements and contracts can be completed quickly and with more convenience so more trade is happening between companies in the U.S. and other nations.
Also international trade agreements like the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), have lowered tariffs such that it is cheaper to both export and import than it was so both measures grew.
On November 1, Year One, a company is paid $12,000 in advance to do a job for a customer. The job has ten separate steps. The first four steps were completed in Year One and the remaining six steps were completed in Year Two. The accountant mistakenly believed that this was just one big job and recorded it in that fashion. However, each of the ten steps was really an individual job and should have been accounted for in that way. Which of the following statements is true?
a. At the end of Year One, the company's liabilities are understated.
b. At the end of Year Two, the company's assets are overstated.
c. At the end of Year Two, the company's retained earnings are overstated.
d. At the end of Year One, the company's retained earnings are understated.
e. At the end of Year Two, the company's net income is understated.
Answer: a. At the end of Year One, the company's liabilities are understated.
Explanation:
Under the Accrual basis of Accounting, revenue should be recorded for only jobs that have been completed. In other words, only earned revenue should be recorded. Revenue that has not been earned but yet received, is to be termed Deferred revenue and should be treated as a current liability.
In this scenario, there are steps that have not been completed so some of the revenue received should be termed deferred revenue. These should therefore be in current liabilities and because they were not, the liabilities for the end of year 1 will be understated.
Budget philosophies There are several important philosophies regarding budget balances. One way in which they differ is in terms of the time span over which the budget should be balanced. Another difference among budget philosophies involves whether the budget balance is as important as other economic goals. Which of the following budget philosophies advocates keeping the budget in balance every year, except during wartime?
Functional finance
Annually balanced budget
Cyclically balanced budget
A major problem with the implementation of this philosophy is that it:________
Magnifies business cycle fluctuations
Can allow the national debt to burgeon with chronic deficits
Relies upon government officials to budget for surpluses during boom times in order to cover deficits during recessions
Answer:
functional finance
Can allow the national debt to burgeon with chronic deficits
Explanation:
Functional finance is a theory developed by Abba P. Lerne during the World War II. It encourages the government's intervention in the economy to achieve its goals and reduce economic insecurity. It is the current budget philosophy in the US
Advantage
It allows the government to stabilise the economy using fiscal policy
Disadvantage
it encourages deficit spending and this can increase the debt of a country
Annually balanced budget is a budget where at the end of every year, revenue must equal expenditure. this type of budget can magnify the business cycle.
A Cyclically balanced budget is when in a recession, the government makes use of expansionary fiscal policy and in a boom, the government makes use of a contractionary fiscal policy to stabilise the economy

Inventory amount (LCNRV rule applied to individual products) $5,800
Inventory amount (LCNRV rule applied to product categories)
Tools: Cost value = (100 * $5) + (200 * $10) + (300 * $2) = $3,100
NRV value = (100 * $5.50) + (200 * $9) + (300 * $2.60) = $3,130
LCNRV = $3,100 for tools
Paint products: Cost value = (500 * $6) + (100 * $4) = $3,400
NRV value = (500 * $5) + (100 * $4.50) = $2,950
LCNRV = $2,950 for paint products
Total LCNRV = $6,050 ($3,100 + $2,950)

Discounting Cash Flows and Earnings. Under the residual income approach and the discounted cash flow approach to firm valuation, carnings and cash flows, respectively, are discounted using a firm's cost of equity. Discuss why the cost of equity is the appropriate discount rate to use to discount a firm's camings and cash flows. Why is the cost of debt inappropriate to use to discount a firm's earnings or cash flows
Answer:
Cost of debt is used for external source of finance whereas cost of equity is used for internal source of finance.
Explanation:
Debt is the fund borrowed from lender at a standard rate of interest. Equity is fund acquired by the investors and shareholders. The required rate of return for equity is higher than the rate of return to the debt holders. This is because debt holders are safe and they are paid first in case of a bankruptcy and liquidity situation of a company. Debt is considered as cheap source of finance but acquiring higher debt will increase company gearing. It is not suitable to use cost of debt as discount factor for the cash flows of the company. The best and ideal discount factor is WACC which is derived by the combination of debt and equity.
Aaron's Rentals has 58,000 shares of common stock outstanding at a market price of $36 a share. The common stock just paid a $1.64 annual dividend and has a dividend growth rate of 2.8 %. There are 12,000 shares of 6 % preferred stock outstanding at a market price of $51 a share. Preferred stock pays a dividend of $6 a year The outstanding bonds mature in 17 years, have a total face value of $750,000, a face value per bond of $1,000, and a market price of $1,011 each. The bonds pay 8 % interest, semiannually. The tax rate is 34 %. What is the firm's weighted average cost of capital
Answer:
The firm's weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is 7.76%.
Explanation:
Note: Par value of the preferred stock is $100 but it is omitted in the question.
Market price share = (Dividend just paid (1 + Dividend growth rate)) / (Cost of equity – Dividend growth rate) ………………………………….. (1)
Substituting the relevant values into equation and solve for cost of equity, we have:
36 = (1.64 * (1 + 0.028)) / (Cost of equity – 0.028)
36 = 1.68592/ (Cost of equity – 0.028)
36(Cost of equity – 0.028) = 1.68592
36Cost of equity - 1.008 = 1.68592
36Cost of equity = 11.68592 + 1.008
Cost of equity = (1.68592 + 1.008) / 36
Cost of equity = 0.0748, or 7.48%
Cost of preferred stock = (Par value * Dividend rate) / Current price = (100 * 6%) / 51 = 0.1176, or 11.76%
Cost of debt = Coupon rate * (100% - tax rate) = 8% * (100% - 34%) = 0.0528, or 5.28%
Common stock market value = 58,000 * $36 = $2,088,000
Preferred market value = 12,000 * $51 = $612,000
Bond market value = $750,000 * ($1,011 / $1,000) = $758,250
Total market value of the company = Common stock market value + Preferred market value + Bond market value = $2,088,000 + $612,000 + $758,250 = $3,458,250
WACC = (7.48% * ($2,088,000 / $3,458,250)) + (11.76% * (612,000 / $3,458,250)) + (5.28% * ($758,250/ $3,458,250)) = 0.0776, or 7.76%
Which of the following is true? In a one-shot game, a collusive strategy always represents a Nash equilibrium. A subgame perfect equilibrium occurs when each player is doing the best he can regardless of what the other player is doing. Each Nash equilibrium is a subgame perfect equilibrium. Correct! Every subgame perfect equilibrium is a Nash equilibrium.
Answer: Each Nash equilibrium is a subgame perfect equilibrium.
Explanation:
The Nash Equilibrium in a game is the outcome of which neither of the players would want to deviate from because they are making the highest payoff that they can given the other player's possible choice and leaving this outcome would result in a lower payoff.
In every subgame that is based on the original game therefore, the Nash equilibrium represents the perfect equilibrium for the players as it is giving the highest payoff given the circumstances.
You are given the following information concerning Parrothead Enterprises:
Debt: 9,300 6.5% coupon bonds outstanding, with 22 years to maturity and a quoted price of 104.75. These bonds have a par value of $1,000 and pay interest semi-annually.
Common stock: 240,000 shares of common stock selling for $64.80 per share. The stock has a beta of .93 and will pay a dividend of $3.00 next year. The dividend is expected to grow by 5.3 percent per year indefinitely.
Preferred stock: 8,300 shares of 4.65 percent preferred stock selling at $94.30 per share.
Market: 11.7% expected return, a risk-free rate of 3.75%, and a 23% tax rate.
Calculate the company's WACC.
Answer:
WACC is 8.19%
Explanation:
WACC (Weighted Average Cost of Capital is determined by multiplying capital source cost of both equity and debt by their relevant weight and then summing the results to identify the value using the formulae given below:
WACC = (E/V x Re) + [D/V x Rd x (1 - Tc)]
where:
E = Market Value of the firm's equity
D = Market Value of the firm's debt
V = E + D
Re = Cost of Equity
Rd = Cost of Debt
Tc = Tax Rate
In the given question, we will first determine the cost of equity. As shown below:
Cost of Equity = Average of CAPM and Dividend Capitalisation Model
CAPM = Risk free rate of return + Beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)
CAPM = 3.75 + 0.93 x (11.7 - 3.75)
CAPM = 11.14%
Dividend Capitalisation Model = Expected dividend net year / Current Price + Growth Rate
Dividend Capitalisation Model = 3 / 64.8 * 100 + 5.3
Dividend Capitalisation Model = 9.93%
Cost of Equity = 9.93 + 11.14 = 10.54%
Next is the cost of debt which would be calculated using YTM (Yield to maturity)
where:
Par Value = 1047.5
Face Value = 1000
Coupon rate = 6.5
Years to maturity = 22 years
Coupon Payment Frequency is semi annually.
The Cost of debt = 6.1%
After Tax it would be 4.7% [6.1% * (1 - 23%)]
Next, we will determine the rate of preferred stock before calculating the WACC.
Rate of preferred stock = Annual dividend / Current Price * 100
Rate of preferred stock = 4.65 / 94.3 * 100
Rate of preferred stock = 4.93%
Finally, we will calculate the Market Value (MV) of equity, debt and preferred stock. As shown below:
MV Equity = 240,000 x 64.8 = 15,552,000
MV Debt = 1047.5 x 9300 = 9,741,750

Harmon Inc, manufactures two products from a joint process, product A and product B. A standard production run incurs joint costs of $45,000 and results in 1,500 units of product A and 2,500 units of product B. Product A sells for $50.00 per unit and Product B sells for $20.00 per unit. Assuming that no further processing occurs after the split-ff point, how much of the joint costs are allocated to Product A and B using the physical measure method
Answer:
Harmon Inc.
Joint costs of $45,000 allocated to:
Product A = $16,875
Product B = $28,125
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Joint costs of a standard production run = $45,000
Joint products Product A Product B Total
Production units 1,500 2,500 4,000
Selling price per unit $50 $20
Allocation of joint costs based on physical measure method:
Product A = $16,875 (1,500/4,000 * $45,000)
Product B = $28,125 (2,500/4,000 * $45,000)
b) Joint costs of $45,000 were incurred by Product A and Product B jointly because they consumed the same resources during the production run. These costs can be allocated to the products based on established criteria, for example, units of products and sales value. The purpose is to properly account for the joint costs at split-off.

Mr. Manning is looking to invest in a one-year stock option and has four possible options. The four options have various rates of return based on whether or not the market rises or fall within the coming year. After consulting with his financial planner, he has the following estimates based on the various market outcomes:
Stock Market Rising Market Stable Market Falling
SUA $68,082 $47,373 $36,362
YSP $64,850 $49,320 $44,865
HTC $57,198 $52,949 $50,605
YHA $59,766 $59,766 $59,766
Mr. Manning’s planner has estimated that the probability the market rises is 60%, stays stable is 30%, and falls is 10%. To assist Mr. Manning in his decision, build a decision tree to model the decision and answer the following question. You do not need to upload your decision tree for this question.
Required:
a. Which stock is the best expected value decision and what is the expected value of that decision?
b. Which stock is the worst expected value decision?
Answer:
Mr. Manning
a. YHA is the best expected value decision with an expected value of $59,766.
b. HTC is the worst expected value decision.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Stock Market Rising Market Stable Market Falling
SUA $68,082 $47,373 $36,362
YSP $64,850 $49,320 $44,865

Expected Value:
Stock Market Rising Market Stable Market Falling Expected Value
Probability 60% 30% 10%
SUA $68,082*60% $47,373*30% $36,362*10% = $58,697
YSP $64,850*60% $49,320*30% $44,865*10% = 58,163
HTC $57,198*60% $52,949*30% $50,605*10% = 55,264
YHA $59,766*60% $59,766*30% $59,766*10% = 59,766
SUA = $40,849.20 + $14,211.90 + $3,636.20 = $58,697.30
YSP = $38,880 + $14,796 + $4,486.50 = $58,162.50
HTC = $34,318.80 + $15,884.70 + $5,060.50 = $55,264
YHA = $35,859.60 + $17,929.80 + $5,976.60 = $59,766
Calculate the cash dividends required to be paid for each of the following preferred stock issues: Required: The semiannual dividend on 6% cumulative preferred, $62 par value, 8,200 shares authorized, issued, and outstanding. The annual dividend on $2.25 cumulative preferred, 130,000 shares authorized, 78,000 shares issued, 68,900 shares outstanding. Last year's dividend has not been paid. The quarterly dividend on 10.0% cumulative preferred, $90 stated value, $106 liquidating value, 78,000 shares authorized, 67,600 shares issued and outstanding. No dividends are in arrears.
Answer:
Preferred dividend calculation:
= Percentage return * Par Value * number of shares
a. The semiannual dividend on 6% cumulative preferred, $62 par value, 8,200 shares authorized, issued, and outstanding.
= 6% * 62 * 8,200 * 1/2 years
= $15,252
b. The annual dividend on $2.25 cumulative preferred, 130,000 shares authorized, 78,000 shares issued, 68,900 shares outstanding. Last year's dividend has not been paid.
In this case, last year's dividend was not paid and this is a cumulative preferred stock so the dividend will be accrued from last year and paid this year.
= Preferred dividend * 2 years
= (2.25 * 68,900 shares outstanding) * 2
= $310,050
c. The quarterly dividend on 10.0% cumulative preferred, $90 stated value, $106 liquidating value, 78,000 shares authorized, 67,600 shares issued and outstanding. No dividends are in arrears.
= 10% * 90 * 67,600 * 1/4 years
= $152,775

Joey realizes that he has charged too much on his credit card and has racked up $5,100 in debt. If he can pay $125 each month and the card charges 18 percent APR (compounded monthly), how long will it take him to pay off the debt
Answer:
It will take Joey 63.59 months to pay off the debt.
Explanation:
This can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:
PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)
Where;
PV = Present value or debt amount = $5,100
P = Monthly payment = $125
r = annual percentage rate (APR) / 12 = 18% / 12 = 0.18 / 12 = 0.015
n = number of months it will take Joey to pay off the debt = ?
Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve for n, we have:
5100 = 125 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.015))^n) / 0.015)
5100 / 125 = (1 - (1 / 1.015)^n) / 0.015
40.80 * 0.015 = 1 - 0.985221674876847^n
0.985221674876847^n = 1 - 0.612
0.985221674876847^n = 0.388
loglinearize both sides, we have:
nlog0.985221674876847 = log0.388
n = log0.388 / log0.985221674876847
n = -0.411168274405793 / -0.00646604224923186
n = 63.59
Therefore, it will take Joey 63.59 months to pay off the debt.
A company has the following information. What is the financial leverage ratio? Total assets $736,000 Total liabilities 314,000 Interest expense 9,400
Answer:
1.7441
Explanation:
Calculation to determine financial leverage ratio
Using this formula
Financial leverage ratio=Total assets/(Total assets-Total liabilities)
Let plug in the formula
Financial leverage ratio=736,000/(736,000 - 314,000)
Financial leverage ratio= 1.7441
Therefore the financial leverage ratio is 1.7441
If a bank has $500 million of checkable deposits, a required reserve ratio of 15%, and it holds $126 million reserves, then the maximum deposit outflow it can sustain without running into reserve deficiency is Group of answer choices $20 million $60 million $71 million $51 million
Answer: $51 million
Explanation:
Firstly, we need to calculate the required reserve which will be:
= $500 × 15%
= $500 million × 0.15
= $75 million
Then, the excess reserve will be:
= $126 million - $75 million
= $51 million
Therefore, the maximum deposit outflow it can sustain without running into reserve deficiency is $51 million.
