Calculate basic earnings per share of common stock for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Earning per share = $3.18

Explanation:

In order to calculate basic earning per share firstly, we need to calculate the weighted average number of share outstanding

                                         Shares    months        (months x shares)

1 January to 30 May        45,000       4                     $180,000

1 May to 30 November    18,000        7                     $126,000

1 Dec to 31 December     58,700        1                     $58,700

Total                                                     12                   $364,700

Weighted average = $364,700/12

Weighted average = 30,391

Dividends required on preferred stock = 7000 x 4.25% x $100

Dividends required on preferred stock = $29,750

Net income available for shareholders = Net  Income - dividend

Net income available for shareholders = $126,500 - $29,750

Net income available for shareholders = $96,750

Earning per share = Net Income/ no of shares

Earning per share = $96,750/30,391

Earning per share = $3.18

A new operating system for an existing maching is expected to cost $786000 and have a useful life of six years. The system yields an incremental after-tax income of $230000 each year after deducting its straight line depreciation. The predicted salvage value of the system is $90000. Assume the company requires a 10% rate of return on its investments. Compute the net present value of each potential investment.

Answers

Answer:

NPV is $771,739

Explanation:

As we know that:

Net Present Value = Present Value of Cash inflow (STEP 1) - Present Value of Cash outflow

STEP 1. Present Value of Cash Inflow

Here

Present Value of Cash Inflow = Annuity of Annual Cash flow    - PV of Scrap Value

Annual Cash flow is $346,000 ($230,000  +   ($786,000 - $90,000)/6)

So

Annuity of annual cash inflow = $346,000 * Annuity Factor

Here

Annuity Factor for 6 years is 4.3553

Now this means that:

Annuity of annual cash Inflow = $346,000 *  4.3553 = $1,506,934

Present Value of Residual Value ($90,000 * 0.5645) = $50,805

Present Value of cash inflows                                        $1,557,739

Now putting values in the above equation, we have:

Net Present Value = $1,557,739   -    $786,000

Net Present Value = $771,739

1. A small-scale businessman deposits money at the beginning of each year into his savings account, depending on the level of the business’ returns. He deposits $1000 in the first year, $3000 in the second year, $5000 in the third and $7000 in the fourth year and annual interest rate of 7%. What is the value of the investment at the time of his first deposit?

Answers

Answer:

The value of the investment at the time of his first deposit is $1,000.

At the end of the first year, the investment will be worth $1,070.

Explanation:

The value of a deposit investment is determined by the interest rate and time.  Time affects the value of an investment by this small-scale businessman in many ways.  The passage of time increases the value of his investment.  However, the total increase may not be due to the interest rate, but inflation also affects asset's value.  For this businessman to make a gain in the investment, the interest rate must be higher than the inflation rate.  Otherwise, the investment loses money due to the effects of inflation, which reduces the real value of an asset over time.

You have a $4 million portfolio consisting of a $100,000 investment in each of 20 different stocks. The portfolio has a beta of 1.1. You are considering selling $100,000 worth of one stock with a beta of 0.9 and using the proceeds to purchase another stock with a beta of 1.4. What will the portfolio’s new beta be after these transactions? Show your work.

Answers

Answer:

1.1125

Explanation:

the relative weight of the stocks that you are selling is $100,000/$4,000,000 = 0.025 = 2.5% of the portfolio

this means that their effect on the portfolio's beta was 0.9 x 0.025 = 0.0225

the new stocks that you want to purchase have a beta of 1.4 and their relative effect on the portfolio's beta will be 1.4 x 0.025 = 0.035

the difference between both stocks = 0.035 - 0.0225 = 0.0125

that means that the portfolio's new beta = 1.1 + 0.0125 = 1.1125

2019 Answer

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the cost of a machine over its useful lifetime.

There are different types of depreciation like the straight line , double declining  and the units of production method.

Workings

Depreciable amount = 120,000-5000 = 115,000

Useful life = 4 years

Depreciation rate = 115000/4 = 25% = 28,750

                                              2015      2016       2017         2018

Straight line depreciation    28,750  28,750   28,750    28,750

Double declining

Double declining rate = 25%*2 = 50%

2015 = 50% * 115,000= 57,500

2016

Opening book value = 115,000-57,500 = 57500

Depreciation = 57,500*50% = 28,750

2017

Opening book value = 57500-28,750 =28750

Depreciation = 50%*28,750 =14,375

2018

Opening book value   28750-14375 = 14375

Depreciation = 14375*50% = 7188

Units of production

2015 = 280000/1150,000*115,000 = 28,000

2016 =430,000/1150000*115000 = 43,000

2017= 360000/1150000*115000 = 36,000

2018 = 80,000/1150000*115000 = 8000

B

IF the machine was bought on July 1, 2015

Straight line depreciation

2015 = (25%*115000 ) /2 = 14,375

2016 =25%* 115,000 = 28,750

2017 = 25%*115000 = 28750

2018 = 25%*115,000 =28750

2019 =(25%*115000)/2 = 14,375

Double declining method

2015

(115,000*50,000)/2 =28750

2016

Opening book value =115,000-28750 =86250

Depreciation = 50%*86250 = 43,125

2017

Opening book value =86250-43125 =43125

Depreciation = 43,125*50% = 21,563

2018

Opening book value

43125-21563 =21562

Depreciation = 21562*50% =10,781

2019

Opening book value = 21562-10781 =10781

Depreciation = 50%*10781 = 5391

Determine the incremental rate of return (ROR) value of the two alternatives below. Hint: Convert RoR value to a percentage. If the answer is 10%, enter 10. Do not enter 0.01. A B First Cost, $ 135,000 185,000 Operating Cost, $/year 9,000 5,200 Salvage value, $ 9,000 10,000 Life, n [infinity] [infinity]

Answers

Answer:m Incremental rate of return (ROR) = 0.076 ≈7.6%    

Explanation:

Given that;  

                                               A                            B

First Cost $                            135,000                 185,000

Operating Cost $/year           9,000                    5,200

Salvage value $                      9,000                     10,000

Life, n                                     [infinity ∞]                  [infinity ∞]

As alternatives have infinite life, salvage value will have no effect on calculations

Therefore;

Incremental initial cost (B-A) = 185000 - 135000 = 50000

Incremental annual cost (B-A) = 5200 - 9000 = -3800 (Annual savings)

Present worth of infinite annuity = A / i

Incremental rate of return ROR = 3800 / 50000 = 0.076 ≈7.6%

LSM subcontracted with Henry Isaacs Home Remodeling and Repair (Isaacs) to perform the roofing work on the project. Isaacs in turn subcontracted with Hal Brewster Home Improvements (Brewster), to conduct the roofing work on Isaacs' behalf. When Brewster performed work on the roof, he "botched the job" and caused extensive leaking inside the house. LSM and Issacs attempted to correct the problems, but eventually abandoned the project, leaving Logan-Baldwin to hire others to complete the renovations. Logan-Baldwin sued LSM, Isaacs, and Baldwin for breach of contract.

Required:
a. Is the bond likely to sell above or below par value before the downgrade?
b. Is the bond likely to sell above or below par value after the downgrade?

Answers

Answer:

a.- above par (premium)

b.- below par (discount)

Explanation:

Currenly the bonds par yield will be of 7.6%

Before the downgrade the expected return on that risk was 7.5% so it was above par.

Once the downgrade occurs: the expected return considering the increased risk is 7.8% Therefore the market price will decrease. This will move the yield to maturity from 7.5% to 7.8% and the market price below par.

A. positivistic/empirical
B. interpretive
C. critical
D. scientific

Answers

Answer:

B. interpretive

Explanation:

A researcher who has no concern for issues of control or ability to generalize, instead choosing focus on providing rich descriptions would be following the interpretive approach.

In an interpretive approach to research, researchers are mainly focused on deciphering detailed meaning or rich descriptions so they can have a better understanding of the subject matter.

Under interpretive study, it is assumed that the meaning associated with matters are subjective and inter-subjective depending on their perception, thus researchers attempt to understand matters through the meanings attached by individuals in the sampling population.

Hence, interpretive researchers assume that issues are not singular or objective but depends on various human experiences.

Answers

Answer: Decreasing the money supply

Explanation:

When the Fed reduces money supply, it will remove the amount of excess money that people have to spend in the economy. This will lead to prices reducing because people no longer have a lot of money to spend on products therefore they will demand less goods. This will lead to the Aggregate demand curve shifting to the left. The new intersection with the Aggregate Supply curve will be at a point where prices will be lower and less quantity will be demanded which will signify a drop in the short-run output of the economy.

Tony, a hateful, disgruntled, business law teacher notices that a student, Peter, who is past the age of majority, has a nice motorcycle that is for sale. Peter has struggled through school, is in his last semester, and needs to pass business law in order to graduate. Tony tells Peter that he would like to see Peter pass and, in the next sentence, says that he wants to buy the motorcycle for $100, a price far below the value of the motorcycle. Peter asks if Tony is serious about the price, and Tony replies, "I have the power here! Take it or leave it!" Tony proceeds to draw up a contract for the sale of the motorcycle for $100 which Peter signs. Peter does some research and finds that Tony has had several arrests for driving under the influence in a nearby town. As an act of revenge, Peter tells Tony that unless Tony sells Peter his new Mustang convertible for $50, he is publishing the facts about the arrests in the school newspaper. Tony reluctantly agreed to the deal. Which of the following is true if Tony seeks to rescind the contract for the sale of the Mustang?
A. Tony may rescind the contract on grounds of duress.
B. Tony may rescind the contract on grounds of misappropriation of name or likeness.
C. Tony may rescind the contract on grounds of fraud.
D. Tony may not rescind the contract because truth is involved.
E. Tony may rescind the contract on grounds of defamation.

Answers

Answer: A. Tony may rescind the contract on grounds of duress.

Explanation:

For contracts to be considered enforceable, a key factor is that the parties involved must have entered into the agreement of their own accord and free will. Therefore Duress, which denies a person of that free will, becomes a reason why a contract can be voided.

Tony sold Peter the Mustang convertible because Peter had threatened to release details that Tony would rather were kept private so Tony capitulated and sold the Mustang. Had Peter not threatened him, Tony would not have sold the car. This shows that Tony only sold the car under duress and as such can void the contract.

Show your work. Suppose rRF = 6%; rM = 10%; and rA = 14% Calculate Stocks A’s beta. If Stock A’s beta were 2.0, then what would be A’s new required rate of return?

Answers

Answer:

Stock A's beta= 2

The new required rate of return = 14%

Explanation:

The risk free return is 6%

The return of market portfolio is 10%

The return of security A is 14%

(A) The beta of stock A can be calculated as follows

Return of security A= Risk free return+ beta(return of market portfolio-risk free return)

14%= 6% + beta(10%-6%)

14%=6% + 4%beta

14%-6%= 4%beta

8%= 4%beta

beta= 8%/4%

beta= 2

(B) Stock A's required rate of return can be calculated as follows

Required rate of return= 6% + 2(10%-6%)

= 6% + 2(4%)

= 6% + 8%

= 14%

Hence the Stock A's beta is 2 and the required rate of return for A is 14%

Gerritt wants to buy a car that costs $31,000. The interest rate on his loan is 5.67 percent compounded monthly and the loan is for 5 years. What are his monthly payments?

Answers

Answer:

$594.57

Explanation:

For computing the monthly payment we need to apply the PMT formula i.e to be shown in the attachment below:

Given that,  

Present value = $31,000

Future value or Face value = 0

Rate = 5.67% ÷ 12 months = 0.4725

NPER = 5 years × 12 = 60 years

The formula is shown below:  

= PMT(RATE;NPER;-PV;FV;type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after applying the formula, the monthly payment is $594.57

Average costs _______initially due to the presence of fixed costs and then rise due to _________ a. rise; increasing fixed costs b. fall; decreasing marginal costs c. fall ; increasing marginal costs d. rise; decreasing fixed costs

Answers

Answer:

C. fall; increasing marginal costs.

Explanation:

Option C is the correct answer because initially, the average costs fall due to increasing return or production of more units. When output increases, the average fixed cost slopes downwards. Moreover, when the average cost falls, marginal cost also falls and it starts rising as the marginal cost cuts the average cost at its minimum point. However, after cutting at the minimum point, marginal cost increases, and due to which average cost also increases.

What is the expected value and standard deviation of the minimum variance portfolio rate of return? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answers as decimals rounded to 4 places.)

Answers

The expected value and standard deviation of the minimum variance portfolio rate of return are 16.20% and 42.61% respectively.

The same old deviation of a portfolio measures how a good deal of the funding returns deviate from the suggestion of the opportunity distribution of investments. placed certainly, it tells traders how a good deal the investment will deviate from its anticipated return.

The same old deviation of the portfolio is usually the same to the weighted average of the same old deviations of the property in the portfolio. A high fashionable deviation in a portfolio indicates a high hazard as it suggests that the profits are especially volatile and unstable.

calculation:-

Weight of Stock =( (17%-5.6%)*40%^2 - (8%-5.6%)*(46%*40%*0.16))/((17%-5.6%)*40%^2 +  (8%-5.6%)*46%^2 - (17%-5.6%+8%-5.6% )*(46%*40%*0.16))

Weight of Stock = 0.9106

Weight of Bond = 1- 0.9106= 0.0894

Portfolio invested in the stock = 91.06%

Portfolio invested in the bond = 8.94%

The expected return of portfolio = Weight of Stock* E(rs) + Weight of Bond *E(rb)

Expected return of portfolio = 91.06%*17 +8.94%*8

Expected return of portfolio = 16.20%

The standard deviation of Portfolio = (Weight of Stock^2 * SD of Stock^2 + Weight of Bond^2 * SD of Bond^2 + 2* weight of Stock*Weight of Bond* COV(S, B))^(1/2)

Standard deviation of Portfolio = (0.9106^2*46%^2 + 0.0894^2*40%^2 + 2*0.9106*0.0894*(46%*40%*0.16))^(1/2)

Kenneth Washington's weekly gross earnings for the week ending December 18 were $3,460, and his federal income tax withholding was $726.6. Assuming the social security rate is 6% and Medicare is 1.5% of all earnings, what is Washington's net pay? If required, round your answer to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

$2,473.9

Explanation:

The computation of net pay is shown below:-

Net pay = Gross pay - Federal income tax withholding - Social security tax - Medicare tax

= $3,460 - $726.6 - ($3,460 × 6%) - ($3,460 - 1.5%)

= $3,460 - $726.6 - $207.6 - $51.9

= $2,473.9

Therefore for computing the net pay we simply applied the above formula i.e the three above taxes are subtracted from the gross pay to arrive net pay
