1. A location’s risks can make a difference in premium costs. Think about two houses, one built on a mesa (a high desert plateau) in Arizona and the other built on the Louisiana coast (below sea level). Which location is more likely to experience flooding? Which house would have lower premiums for flood insurance?
Answer:
House with lower premiums for flood insurance -- house built on Mesa in Arizona.
Location more likely to experience flooding --- Louisiana coast which is below sea level.
Explanation:
Insurances provides a protection in exchange for a amount of fee known as a premium. An insurance is a policy or an agreement where the person availing the policy gets a financial protection against the calamities or losses that occurs to the person as promised by the other party. But for that the person needs to a pay a fee called as the premium to the other party.
In the context, the house which is built on the mesa, which is a high desert plateau in Arizona is less prone to floods. Since the location of the house is in a high altitude place, it is less likely to experience floods as compared to the other place in Louisiana coast which is below sea level and is more likely to experience flooding because of its location near the coast and elevation.
Therefore, the house located in Arizona will have to pay lower premiums for flood as there will be less likely to occur flood in the region of the high elevation of the place.
And since house built on Louisiana coast is below sea level, it will more likely to experience floods.
Andrew and Brianna are married and live in Texas, a community-property state. For their birthdays this year Andrew gave cash gifts of $20,900 to each of his two daughters, and Brianna gave $35,200 to her niece. What is the amount of Andrew's taxable gifts
Answer: $2,600
Explanation:
Because Andrew is married, the gift tax on him is split in half between him and his wife. This means that to each of his daughters, the gift tax will be on:
= 20,900 / 2
= $10,450
This amount is less than the gift exclusion limit of $15,000 so Andrew will not be charged taxes on the gifts to his daughters.
On the gift to Brianna's niece, Andrew's gift tax will be based on:
= 35,200 / 2
= $17,600
This is above the gift exclusion limit of $15,000 by:
= 17,600 - 15,000
= $2,600
The above would therefore be Andrew's taxable gift amount.
The risk-free rate is 3%. MCD currently prices at $25. The Delta of a 1-year at-the-money European call on MCD is 0.5. John has a portfolio made of the following: (1) One bond maturing in 1 year paying $1000. (2) Three 1-year at-the-money European MCD calls. (3) Two 1-year at-the-money European MCD puts. How many shares of MCD should John long (or short) to make his portfolio delta-neutral
Answer:
Short 1.5 shares
Explanation:
Given data :
Risk free rate = 3%
current price ( market price ) = $25
Delta of 1-year at money European call on MCD = 0.5
Determine how many shares of MCD John should either Long or short to achieve a delta-neutral
use the relation below
4 * 0.5 + 1 ( 0.5 - 1 ) + x = 0
x ( number of shares ) = - [ 4 * 0.5 + 1 ( 0.5 - 1 ) ]
= - 1.5 shares
negative ( - ) means MCD should short 1.5 shares

Total Direct Materials Cost Variance __________ $
b. The direct materials price variance should normally be reported to the __________ . When lower amounts of direct materials are used because of production efficiencies, the variance would be reported to the__________. When the favorable use of raw materials is caused by the purchase of higher-quality raw materials, the variance should be reported to the__________.
Answer:
A) - $2585
$1750
-$835
B) Purchasing department , Purchasing supervisor , purchasing department
Explanation:
A) calculations for direct material price variance , quantity variance and total direct materials cost variance
Direct material price variance = 51,700 * ( 1.7 - 1.75 ) = -$2585.
Direct material Quantity variance = 1.75 ( 51700 - 50700 ) = $1750
Total direct materials Cost variance = 87890 - 88725 = - $835 a
B)
The direct materials price variance should normally be reported to the Purchasing department.
When lower amounts of direct materials are used because of production efficiencies, the variance would be reported to the production supervisor
When the favorable use of raw materials is caused by the purchase of higher-quality raw materials, the variance should be reported to the Purchasing department

he Glowing company could produce an operating cash flow of $56,200 a year for 5 years. The initial fixed asset investment in the project will be $238,900. The net aftertax salvage value is estimated at $67,000 and will be received during the last year of the project's life. What is the net present value of the project if the required rate of return is 15.2 percent
Answer:
-$18,375
Explanation:
The computation of the net present value is shown below;
In the case when the operating cash flow is $56,200 for 5 years and the rate of return is 15.2% so the present value is $187,502 by using the financial calculator
In the case when the net after tax salvage value is $67,000 for the 5 year and the rate of return is 15.2% so the present value is $33,023 by using the financial calculator
Now the net present value is
= $18,7502 + $33,023 - $238,900
= -$18,375
Good Investments Company forecasts a $2.44 dividend for 2017, $2.62 dividend for 2018 and a $2.77 dividend for 2019 for Mountain Vacations Corporation. For all years after 2019, Good Investments Company forecasts that Mountain Vacations will pay a $2.94 dividend. Using the dividend discount valuation model determine the intrinsic value of Mountain Vacations Corporation, assuming the company's cost of equity capital is 7%. Select one:
a. $18.12
b. $24.48
c.$29.37
d. $27.91
Answer:
c.$29.37
Explanation:
First and foremost, it should be borne in mind that the intrinsic value of Mountain Vacations Corporation is the present value of its future dividends for the forecast period(2017-2019) plus the present value of dividend terminal value beyond the forecast period as shown thus:
Year 1 (2017) dividend $2.44
Year 2 (2018) dividend $2.62
Year 3 (2019) dividend $2.77
the terminal value of dividend=expected dividend per year after 2019/ cost of equity capital
expected dividend per year after 2019= $2.94
cost of equity capital =7%
terminal value=$2.94 /7%=$42.00
PV of future dividend=dividend/(1+cost of equity capital)^n
n is the year in which the future dividend is expected, it is 1 for 2017, 2 for 2018 , 3 for 2019 dividend and the terminal value(since the terminal value is already stated in 2019 terms)
intrinsic value of share=$2.44/(1+7%)^1+$2.62/(1+7%)^2+$2.77/(1+7%)^3+$42.00/(1+7%)^3
the intrinsic value of share=$41.11
It is obvious that the options are not correct
The question's inputs are wrong
2017 dividend should have been $1.74
2018 dividend should have been $1.87
2019 dividend should have been $1.98
dividend beyond 2019 should have been $2.10
terminal value=$2.10/7%=$30.00
intrinsic value of share=$1.74/(1+7%)^1+$1.87/(1+7%)^2+$1.98/(1+7%)^3+$30.00/(1+7%)^3
intrinsic value of share=$29.36(closest to c.$29.37)
At the end of 2003, Ritzcar Co. fails to accrue sales commissions earned during 2003, but paid in 2004. The error is not repeated in 2004. What was the effect of this error on 2003 ending working capital and on the 2004 ending retained earnings balance
Answer:
The effect of this error on 2003 ending working capital is that it overstated the ending 2003 working capital.
The error does not have effect on the 2004 ending retained earnings balance.
Explanation:
Let the amount of the commission expense be xxxx.
At the end of 2003, the journal entries should have been as follows:
Debit Commission expense for xxxx
Credie Commission payable for xxxx
Also, we have:
Working capital = Current assets – Current liabilities ………… (1)
From equation (1), current liabilities are understated because commission payable which was not recorded is an item under current liabilities. Since the current liabilities are understated, that indicates that the working capital in equation is overstated. Therefore, the effect of this error on 2003 ending working capital is that it overstated the ending 2003 working capital.
When the 2003 commission expense in the entries above was paid in 2004, it would have been recognized as an expense. This made the error to counterbalance. This implies that the 2004 ending retained earnings balance is still correct despite that there are errors in the earnings of the two years. Therefore, the error does not have effect on the 2004 ending retained earnings balance.
FIN issues a $1000 par value bond that pays 7 precent annula interest and will mature in 14 years. The current market price for the bond is $950. Flotation costs will be 14 percent of market price. The company's marginal tax rate is 25%. What will be FIN's aafter tax cost of debt? g
Answer:
7.05 %
Explanation:
After tax cost of debt = interest x ( 1 - tax rate)
so, the initial step is to determine the interest rate :
The Bond Yield (i/yr) presents the market rate and this is what we want for our interest rate.
thus,
PV = - [$950 - ($950 x14%)] = - $817(remove floatation cost from market price)
FV = $1000
PMT = $1000 x 7 % = $70.00
P/YR = 1
N = 14
i/yr = ??
Using a financial calculator to input the values as above, the Bond Yield (i/yr) will be 9.40 %
therefore,
After tax cost of debt = 9.40 % x (1 - 0.25)
= 7.05 %

Furniture Face Lift refinishes old wood furniture. Their process for refinishing chairs has 8 workers and 4 stations. Each chair starts at the Stripping station, then goes to Priming, then to Painting and finally to Inspection. Where there are multiple workers within a station, each worker works independently on his/her own chair. Assume inventory buffers are allowed between each station and each station has inventory to work on at the beginning of the day
Station Staffing Processing time (hours per chair per worker)
Stripping 3 2.5
Priming 2 1.5
Painting 3 1.75
Inspection 1 0.8
Suppose at the start of the day there is no inventory of chairs in the shop. That is, there are no chairs within any of the stations or between them in any buffer. A truck loaded with 10 chairs arrives. How many hours will it take them to complete these 10 chairs?
Answer:
13.19 hours
Explanation:
Station Staffing Processing time (Hours Capacity = Staffing /
per chair per worker) Processing time
Stripping 3 2.5 1.2
Priming 2 1.5 1.33
Painting 3 1.75 1.714
Inspection 1 0.8 1.25
Stripping has the lowest capacity, hence it will be having bottleneck, thus the process capacity is 1.2.
Total time to produce the 1st chair = 2.5 + 1.5 + 1.75 + 0.8
Total time to produce the 1st chair = 6.55 hours
Time to produce subsequent chair = 1/1.2
Time to produce subsequent chair = 0.83 hrs
Total time taken to produce 10 chairs = 6.55 hours + 0.83 hrs*8 Workers
Total time taken to produce 10 chairs = 6.55 hours + 6.64 hours
Total time taken to produce 10 chairs = 13.19 hours

March $3,600 500
April $4,500 690
May $3,200 500
June $5,500 700
To calculate the variable and fixed costs, we need to use the following formulas:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (5,500 - 2,700) / (700 - 300)
Variable cost per unit= $7
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 5,500 - (7*700)
Fixed costs= $600
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 2,700 - (7*300)
Fixed costs= $600

A 10-year, 10.00%, $5,000 bond that pays dividends quarterly can be purchased for $4,610.
This means that $4,610 is spent on the bond now. Every quarter, $125.00 is provided to the purchaser as the dividend. After 10 years, $5,000 is given to the purchaser.
If the bond is purchased and pays as scheduled, which of the following ranges of effective rate of return will the purchaser receive?
a. 11.00% - 12.00%
b. 10.00% - 10.50%
c. 12.01% - 14.01%
d. 10.50% - 10.75%
Answer: a. 11.00% - 12.00%
Explanation:
We can find the rate using Excel.
Payments are quarterly so we need to adjust the variables to quarterly figures:
Period = 10 years * 4 = 40 quarters
Present value = $4,610 (should be a negative number)
Future value = $5,000 at maturity
The effective rate will be 2.9% as shown in the attachment.
This is a quarterly figure so convert it to annual:
= 2.9 * 4
= 11.6%
It is between 11% and 12%

A "Narrow bank" is a bank that only holds cash for its depositors -- specifically, in our example from class, a narrow bank would take the 1000 deposits of $1,000 each and simply deposit $1,000,000 in its Federal Reserve account. 1. Would this kind of bank be immune to bank runs and financial crises? 2. Why or why not?
Answer:
Theoretically, the bank should be immune to bank runs and financial crises. A narrow bank just receivers deposits and manages them. It does not borrow money, so the deposits should be safe and available when required by the customers. The problem with this type of banks is that the only way they can make a profit is by charging depositors a fee instead of paying interest rates.
Explanation:
Kelly Slater owns a parcel of land in Palm Springs and is considering two possible development options which both use his signature Kelly Slater Wave Pool technology.
Option A: Create a private surf club, in which case he would have to invest $10 million today (EOY 0). The club would then generate an annual free cash flow of $2 million in perpetuity starting EOY 1.
Option B: Create a surf resort and hotel open to the public, in which case he would have to invest $50 million today (EOY 0). The resort would then generate an annual free cash flow of $6.5 million in perpetuity starting EOY 1.
Assume Kelly's discount rate is 10% and that he can only invest in one of the two options. Kelly should: ________
a. Accept both options because they both have positive NPV
b. Choose Option A because it has a higher IRR
c. Reject both options because both have an IRR less than 10%
d. Choose Option B because it has a higher NPV
Answer:
d. Choose Option B because it has a higher NPV
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
For Option A:
Investment = $10 million
Present Value of cash flows = Cash flow ÷ Discounting rate
= $2 ÷ 10%
= $20 million
Now
NPV = $20 - $10
= $10 million
We know that
IRR is the rate at which the NPV will be zero
So, 2 ÷ r - 10 = 0
r = 20%
For Option B:
Investment = $50 million
Present Value of cash flows = $6.5 ÷ 10% = $65 million
NPV = $65 - $50 = $15 million
we know that
IRR is the rate at which the NPV will be zero
So, 6.5÷ r -50 = 0
r = 13%
Based on NPV, Option B should be selected as it contains higher NPV as compared to option A.
However, Based on IRR, Option A should be chosen as it contains higher IRR and a higher IRR represent a higher profit percentage
