Answer:

a.  25

b. $217,500

Explanation:

Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution / Sales × 100

                                            = ($500,000 - $375,000) / $500,000 × 100

                                            = 25.00% or 25

Income statement for Pearl Company

Sales                        $825,000

Less Variable Cost ($247,500)

Contribution            $577,500

Answer with its Explanation:

Requirement A. The cost function is equal to variable cost for "x" units and fixed cost which remains fixed. Hence:

Cost Function = C(x) = $60  +  $0.8x

Requirement B. The revenue for any units "x" sold can be calculated by simply multiplying "x" with sales price per unit. Which means that:

Revenue Function = R(x) = $2 * x  = $2x

Requirement C. Now we have to find the breakeven quantity and this could be calculated using the following formula:

Breakeven Point = Fixed Cost / (Selling Price per Unit  - Variable Cost Per Unit)

By putting values we have:

Breakeven Point = $60 / ($2 - $0.8)    = 50 units

Requirement D. As the number of units are above breakeven point (No profit and loss position), hence making sales above 50 units will generate profit for the company.

The profit for the company would be:

Total Profit = Contribution per unit * Units above Breakeven point

Total Profit = ($2 - $0.8)  *  10 Units = $12

Answer:

$9,240

Explanation:

Computation of Maturity Value of the note

First step is to find the interest amount using this formula

Interest amount=(Face value *Note payable)*Numbers of days to signed/Numbers of days in a year

Let plug in the formula

Interest Amount = ($9,000*8%)*120/365

Interest amount = $720 * 120 / 360

Interest amount=720*0.33333

$240

Next step is to calculate for the Maturity value using this formula

Maturity Value = Face value +Interest amount

Let plug in the formula

Maturity value =$9,000 + $240

Maturity value = $9,240

Therefore the maturity value of the note on March 1 will be $9,240

Explanation:

(a) Economic order quantity EOQ = [tex]\sqrt{2 X Annual Demand X Ordering Cost) / Carrying Cost)}[/tex]

= [tex]\sqrt{2 X 5,900 X 29 / 9 }[/tex]     = [tex]\sqrt{38,022.222}[/tex]

= 194.99 units  

(b) Average number of units = Economic order quantity / 2

= 194.99 / 2  

= 97.496 units    

(c) Optimal number of orders = Annual Demand / Economic order quantity

= 5,900units / 194.99 units  =30.26  

(d) Optimal number of days between two orders = Number of working days / Optimal number of orders

= 250 days / 30.26  

= 8.26  

Total ordering cost = Cost per order X Number of orders

= $29 X 30.26  

= $ 877.54

Total holding cost = Average inventory X carrying cost per unit

= 194.99 /2  X $9  

= $877.455

(e) Annual cost of ordering and holding inventorY =Total ordering cost + Total carrying cost

= $ 877.54  + $877.455

= $ 1,754.995  ≈ $1,755  

(f) Total annual inventory cost =Total ordering cost +Total holding cost + Actual cost of 5900 units at $102 per unit    

= $ 877.54  + $877.455  + (5,900 x 102) = $1754.995 +601,800= $603,554.995≈$603,555

Total annual inventory cost =Total ordering cost +Total holding cost + Actual cost of 6000 units at $102 per unit    

= $ 877.54  + $877.455  + (6000 x 102) = $1754.995 +612,000= $613,754.995≈$613,755

Electric stapler sales budgeted for March should be: 11,023 units.

Explanation:

Apply the growth of 3.30% to each month starting December as follows :

December Sales = 10,000 units

January Sales     = 10,000 × (1.033)^1  = 10,330 units

February Sales   = 10,000 × (1.033)^2 = 10,671 units

March Sales        = 10,000 × (1.033)^3 = 11,023 units

Answer:

Carrying value December 31, 2018 = $24,137.50

Explanation:

the numbers are missing, so I looked for a similar question to fill in the blanks:

The journal entry to record the issuance of the bonds:

January 1, 2018, bonds are issued at a discount:

Dr Cash 23,300

Dr Discount on bonds payable 6,700

    Cr Bonds payable 30,000

discount amortization = $6,700 / 16 coupons = $418.75 per coupon payment

First and second coupon payments:

June 30 (or December 31), 2018, coupon payments

Dr Interest expense 3,718.75

    Cr Cash 3,300

    Cr Discount on bonds payable 418.75

Carrying value June 30, 2018 = $23,300 + $418.75 = $23,718.75

Carrying value December 31, 2018 = $23,300 + $418.75 = $24,137.50

Answer: 30 days

Explanation:

The accrued interest is to be paid for the period beginning from the date of issue till the date of settlement. However, the date of settlement is not included which means interest will not be paid for the 1st of February.

That leave the 31 days of January for payment. With Municipal Bonds however, accrued interest is calculated assuming only 30 days in a month so January will have 30 days in terms of accrued interest.

30 days is the number of days that accrued interest must be paid to the underwriter.

Answer:

contact enough dealers so that a reasonable market quote is obtained . when a municipal dealer acts in an agency capacity, the price charged must be representative of the market for that type of security. There is no requirement to obtain a pre-set number of quotes (as a contrast, FINRA requires that a minimum of 3 quotes be obtained for non-NASDAQ OTC issues, meaning OTCBB or Pink Sheet issues), nor is there a requirement to direct the customer to a dealer that physically has those bonds. The dealer would not sell short the bonds to the customer, since short covering is very difficult in the thinly traded municipal market.

Answer:

a. The answers are as follows:

(i) Expected of Return of Portfolio = 4%; and Beta of Portfolio = 0

(ii) Expected of Return of Portfolio = 6.25%; and Beta of Portfolio = 0.25

(iii) Expected of Return of Portfolio = 8.50%; and Beta of Portfolio = 0.50

(iv) Expected of Return of Portfolio = 10.75%; and Beta of Portfolio = 0.75

(v) Expected of Return of Portfolio = 13%; and Beta of Portfolio = 1.0

b. Change in expected return = 9% increase

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete as part b of it is omitted. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Suppose that the S&P 500, with a beta of 1.0, has an expected return of 13% and T-bills provide a risk-free return of 4%.

a. What would be the expected return and beta of portfolios constructed from these two assets with weights in the S&P 500 of (i) 0; (ii) 0.25; (iii) 0.50; (iv) 0.75; (v) 1.0

b. How does expected return vary with beta? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)

The explanation to the answers are now provided as follows:

a. What would be the expected return and beta of portfolios constructed from these two assets with weights in the S&P 500 of (i) 0; (ii) 0.25; (iii) 0.50; (iv) 0.75; (v) 1.0

To calculate these, we use the following formula:

Expected of Return of Portfolio = (WS&P * RS&P) + (WT * RT) ………… (1)

Beta of Portfolio = (WS&P * BS&P) + (WT * BT) ………………..………………. (2)

Where;

WS&P = Weight of S&P = (1) – (1v)

RS&P = Return of S&P = 13%, or 0.13

WT = Weight of T-bills = 1 – WS&P

RT = Return of T-bills = 4%, or 0.04

BS&P = 1.0

BT = 0

After substituting the values into equation (1) & (2), we therefore have:

(i) Expected return and beta of portfolios with weights in the S&P 500 of 0 (i.e. WS&P = 0)

Using equation (1), we have:

Expected of Return of Portfolio = (0 * 0.13) + ((1 - 0) * 0.04) = 0.04, or 4%

Using equation (2), we have:

Beta of Portfolio = (0 * 1.0) + ((1 - 0) * 0) = 0

(ii) Expected return and beta of portfolios with weights in the S&P 500 of 0.25 (i.e. WS&P = 0.25)

Using equation (1), we have:

Expected of Return of Portfolio = (0.25 * 0.13) + ((1 - 0.25) * 0.04) = 0.0625, or 6.25%

Using equation (2), we have:

Beta of Portfolio = (0.25 * 1.0) + ((1 - 0.25) * 0) = 0.25

(iii) Expected return and beta of portfolios with weights in the S&P 500 of 0.50 (i.e. WS&P = 0.50)

Using equation (1), we have:

Expected of Return of Portfolio = (0.50 * 0.13) + ((1 - 0.50) * 0.04) = 0.0850, or 8.50%

Using equation (2), we have:

Beta of Portfolio = (0.50 * 1.0) + ((1 - 0.50) * 0) = 0.50

(iv) Expected return and beta of portfolios with weights in the S&P 500 of 0.75 (i.e. WS&P = 0.75)

Using equation (1), we have:

Expected of Return of Portfolio = (0.75 * 0.13) + ((1 - 0.75) * 0.04) = 0.1075, or 10.75%

Using equation (2), we have:

Beta of Portfolio = (0.75 * 1.0) + ((1 - 0.75) * 0) = 0.75

(v) Expected return and beta of portfolios with weights in the S&P 500 of 1.0 (i.e. WS&P = 1.0)

Using equation (1), we have:

Expected of Return of Portfolio = (1.0 * 0.13) + ((1 – 1.0) * 0.04) = 0.13, or 13%

Using equation (2), we have:

Beta of Portfolio = (1.0 * 1.0) + (1 – 1.0) * 0) = 1.0

b. How does expected return vary with beta? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)

There expected return will increase by the percentage of the difference between Expected Return and Risk free rate. That is;

Change in expected return = Expected Return - Risk free rate = 13% - 4% = 9% increase

Complete Question:

Ford Motor Company is discussing new ways to recapitalize the firm and raise additional capital. Its current capital structure has a 10% weight in equity, 25% in preferred stock, and 65% in debt. The cost of equity capital is 17%, the cost of preferred stock is 11%, and the pretax cost of debt is 9%. What is the weighted average cost of capital for Ford if its marginal tax rate is 40%?

Answer:

7.96%

Explanation:

We can calculate WACC using the formula:

WACC = Cost of equity * Equity %age / 100%         +          

After Tax Cost of Debt * Debt %age / 100%            +        

Cost of Preferred Stock * Preferred Stock %age / 100%

Here,

Cost of equity is 17%

Cost of preferred stock is 11%

Post tax cost of debt = Pre-Tax cost *  (1 - Tax rate)

This implies,

Post tax cost of debt = 9% * (1 - 40%) =  5.4%

Equity weight is 10% weight in equity

Preferred stock weight is 25%

Debt Weight is 65%

By putting value in the formula given in the attachment, we have:

WACC = 17% * (10% / 100%)      +     11% * (25% / 100%)    +    5.4% * (65% / 100%)

WACC = 1.7%   +   2.75%   +    3.51%

WACC = 7.96%

Answer:

Advisor A

Explanation:

t bill rate = 0.05

market rate = 0.13

the beta of the market is always 1

the rate of return= 0.05 + (0.13 - 0.05) x 1

= 0.13

which is 13%

this is for advisor A.

with a return of 20% and 1.5 beta

0.05 + ( 0.20 - 0.05) x 1.5

= 27.5% for advisor b

when the return is 15% and beta is 1.2

0.05 + (0.15 - 0.05) x 1.2

= 17%

Therefore advisor a is better

Answer:

a. Compute the after tax cost of debt.

after tax cost of debt = 11% x (1 - tax rate) = 11% x 0.8 = 8.8%

b. Compute the after tax cost of preferred stock.

after tax cost of preferred stock = cost of preferred stock (no taxes are deducted for paying preferred dividends since they are paid in capital)

cost of preferred stocks = $6.40 / ($60 - $6) = $6.40 / $54 = 11.85%

c. Based on the facts given above, is the treasurer correct?

the difference = 11.85% - 8.8% = 3.05%, so the treasurer was right
