Answer:
c) transportation problem
Explanation:
The SHIPPING PROBLEM in LP which is also known as the TRANSPORTATION PROBLEM in LP can be defined as a unique type of linear programming problem in which the aim and purpose is to help to minimise the overall cost of a product which occured when distributing the product from a number of sources to another number of destinations.
Therefore because of its unique structure the method which is the usual simplex method is not suitable to been used in solving the transportation problems.
The correlation between the fund returns is 0.1560. What is the expected return and standard deviation for the minimum-variance portfolio of the two risky funds?
Answer:
The answer is given below
Explanation:
The question is not complete. Given that:
[tex]E(r_s)=11\%,E(r_b)=8\%, \sigma(r_s)=33\%,\sigma(r_b)=25\%[/tex], ρ = 0.1560
From the covariance matrix, Cov (B, S) = [tex]\rho*\sigma_b*\sigma_s=0..1560*33*25=128.7[/tex]
The minimum-variance portfolio is gotten using the formula:
[tex]w_{min}(S)=\frac{\sigma_B^2-Cov(B,S)}{\sigma_S^2+\sigma_B^2-2Cov(B,S)}=\frac{(25^2)-128.7}{33^2+25^2-2(128.7)}=\frac{625-128.7}{225+1089-257.4}=0.4697\\\\w_{min}(B)=\frac{\sigma_S^2-Cov(B,S)}{\sigma_S^2+\sigma_B^2-2Cov(B,S)}=\frac{(33^2)-128.7}{33^2+25^2-2(128.7)}=\frac{1089-128.7}{225+1089-257.4}=0.9089[/tex]
the expected return for the minimum-variance portfolio is:
[tex]E(r_{min})=w_{min}S*E(r_s)+w_{min}B*E(r_b)=11*0.4697+0.9089*8=12.44\%[/tex]
the standard deviation for the minimum-variance portfolio is:
[tex]\sigma_{min}=[w_S^2\sigma_s^2+w_B^2\sigma_B^2+2w_Bw_SCov(B,S)]^\frac{1}{2} =[0.4687^2*33^2+0.9089^2*25^2+2*0.9089*0.4687*128.7]^\frac{1}{2}=29.41\%[/tex]
Suppose a five-year, $ 1 comma 000 bond with annual coupons has a price of $ 902.86 and a yield to maturity of 5.7 %. What is the bond's coupon rate?
Answer:
The coupon rate is 3.41%
Explanation:
The price of a bond is calculated as the present value of the annuity payments of its interest plus the present value of the face value of the bond. The formula to calculate the price of the bond is attached.
As the bond is an annual coupon paying bond, we determine the following,
r = 5.7%
n = 5 years or 5
The C or coupon payment is unknown. Let x be the coupon rate paid by the bond. Then C or coupon payment is 1000 * x or 1000x.
We know the current price of the bond. Thus putting in the available values for all the variables, we can calculate the value of x which is the coupon rate.
902.86 = 1000x * [(1 - (1+0.057)^-5) / 0.057] + 1000 / (1+0.057)^5
902.86 = 1000x * (4.246965615) + 757.92296
902.86 - 757.92296 = 4246.965615x
144.93704 / 4246.965615 = x
x = 0.03412 or 3.412% rounded off to 3.41%
A company has net income of $199,000, a profit margin of 9.50 percent, and an accounts receivable balance of $106,108. Assuming 74 percent of sales are on credit, what is the company's days' sales in receivables
Answer:
Receivables days = 25 days
Explanation:
The receivable days is the average length of time it takes a business to receive cash from customers in respect of credit sales made.
It is calculated as follows:
Receivables days = Receivables / Credit sales × 365 days.
The credit sales is missing , hence we need to work it out as follows:
Net income =profit margin × total sales revenue
let sales value be represented by "y"
199,000 = 9.50% × y
y = 199,000/0.095
y= 2,094,736.84
Total sales revenue = 2,094,736.84
Credit sales = 74% × total sales revenue
= 74% × 2,094,736.84=1,550,105.263
Receivables days =106,108/1,550,105.26× 365 days= 24.98
Receivables days = 25 days
Twist Corp. has a current accounts receivable balance of $457,615. Credit sales for the year just ended were $2,940,600.a. What is the company's receivables turnover? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
b. What is the company's days' sales in receivables? (Use 365 days a year. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
c. How long did it take on average for credit customers to pay off their accounts during the past year? (Use 365 days a year. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer and Explanation:
The computations are as follows
a. For company receivable turnover
As we know it is
= Credit Sales ÷ current account receivable balance
= $2,940,600 ÷ $457,615
= 6.43 times
b.
Now
company's days' sales in receivables is
= 365 ÷ Receivables turnover ratio
= 365 ÷ 6.43
= 56.77 days
c. Therefore the average collection period is the same as days sales in receivable i.e 56.77 days

You have an opportunity to invest in Australia at an interest rate of 8%. Moreover, you expect the Australian dollar (A$) to appreciate by 2%. Your effective return from this investment is
Answer:
10.16%
Explanation:
The computation of the effective return for this investment is shown below:
Let us assume that we invested an amount in Australian dollars 100
The return is 8%
After one year, the amount is 108
Now the converting amount is 110.16 (108 × 102%)
Now the effective rate for this investment is
= 110.16 - 100
= 10.16%
The manufacturers of several designer purses have met and agreed not to sell their purses to Jolie's Department Store because of Jolie's practice of discounting all items 20 percent below the retail costs at other stores. The manufacturers are concerned about maintaining their images of exclusivity and quality. The agreement among the manufacturers:
Answer:
b. violates the Sherman Act because it is a boycott.
Explanation:
Since the manufacturers have decided to team boycott the Jolie's Department Store, the Sherman Act is also known as the form of civil conspiracy by just not selling their immoral and also unconstitutional and violet hand bags to them.
Hence, the correct option is b as it violates the Sherman act
Therefore all the other options are wrong
An investor has sold short stock worth $20,000 in a margin account, depositing the Regulation T margin requirement. If the market value of the stock falls to $16,000, what is the Selling Power in the account
Answer:
The selling power in the account is $20,000.
Explanation:
Credit - Short market value = Equity %
Sale $20,000 $20,000
Margin $10,000 $10,000
Total $30,000 $20,000 $10,000 50%
If the market value falls to $16,000, the account will show;
Credit - Short market value = Equity %
$30,000 $16,000 $14,000
To support a $16,000 stock position at 50% margin, equity of $8,000 is required. Since the account has $14,000 of equity, the excess of $10,000 may be borrowed and it's the
SMA amount. With $10,000 of SMA amount, twice this amount may be purchased or sold short in other marginal securities.
The main goal of monetary policy is to shift Choose one or more: A. aggregate demand. B. short-run aggregate supply. C. long-run aggregate supply.
Answer: aggregate demand
Explanation:
Monetary policy, is the demand side of an economic policy that is used by the government through the central bank in order to control the money supply that is available in the economy so as to achieve macroeconomic goals that will bring about economic growth.
The main goal of monetary policy is to shift the aggregate demand. Increase or decrease in money supply can either shift the aggregate demand to the right or to the left depending on whether the government wants to use the expansionary or the contractionary method.

You short-sell 600 shares of Rock Creek Fly Fishing Co., now selling for $38 per share. If you want to limit your loss to $3,600, you should place a stop-buy order at ___.A. A. $32.00 B. $38.00 C. $44.00 D. $64.00
Answer:
$44.00
Explanation:
You are required to find where to place a stop-buy order
Amount received from short sale
= 600 x $38
= $22,800
Loss = $3,600 = 600p - 22,800
=3,600 + 22800 = 600p
26400 = 600p
P = 26400/600
P = $44.00
you should place a stop-buy order at $44.00

2. Consumption and saving definitions Suppose Ana gets a sales bonus at her place of work that gives her an extra $600 of disposable income. She chooses to spend $480 and save the remaining $120. From this, you can tell that Ana's marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is , and her marginal propensity to save (MPS) is . Mathematically, it must always be true that: Consumption = Therefore, it must also be true that: MPC =
Answer:
From this, you can tell that Ana's marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.80, and her marginal propensity to save (MPS) is 0.20. Mathematically, it must always be true that: Consumption = Therefore, it must also be true that: MPC = 1 - MPS.
Explanation:
Marginal propensity to consume refers to amount that a household decides to spend of every extra dollar that they earn. Since you either spend or save money, the marginal propensity to save is the portion that you decided not to spend, and therefore, save.
Common Stockholders' Profitability Analysis A company reports the following:
net income : $375,000
Preferred dividends : 75,000
Average stockholders' equity 2,500,000
Average common stockholders' equity : 1,875,000
Determine :
(a) the rate earned on stockholders' equity
(b) the rate earned on common stockholders' equity.
Answer:
(A) Rate earned on stockholder's equity=15%
(B) Rate earned on common stockhloder's equity= 16%
Explanation:
A company reports the following profitability analysis
Net income of $375,000
Preferred dividend of $75,000
Average stockhloder's equity of $2,500,000
Average common stockhloder's equity of $1,875,000
(A) The rate earned on stockholder's equity can be calculated as follows
= Net income/Average stockholders equity
= $375,000/$2,500,000
= 0.15×100
= 15%
(B) The rate earned on common stock holder's equity can be calculated as follows
= Net income-Preferred dividend/Average common equity
= $375,000-$75,000/$1,875,000
= $300,000/$1,875,000
= 0.16×100
= 16%
Hence the rate earned on stockholder's equity and common stockhloder's equity is 15% and 16% respectively.
Identify the internal control weakness in the following situations. State how the person can hurt the company.
A. Jerry Miller works as a security guard at ALTEX parking in Denver. Miller has a master key to the cash box where commuters pay for parking. Each night Miller prepares the cash report that shows (a) the number of cars that parked on the lot and (b) the day’s cash receipts. Sandra Covington, the ALTEX treasurer, checks Miller’s figures by multiplying the number of cars by the parking fee per car. Covington then deposits the cash in the bank.
B. Sharon Fisher is the purchasing agent for Manatee Golf Equipment. Fisher prepares purchase orders based on requests from division managers of the company. Fisher faxes the purchase order to suppliers who then ship the goods to Manatee. Fisher receives each incoming shipment and checks it for agreement with the purchase order and the related invoice. She then routes the goods to the respective division managers and sends the receiving report and the invoice to the accounting department for payment.
C. The external auditor for Mattson Financial Services takes a global view of the audit. To form his professional opinion of Mattson’s financial statements, the auditor runs no tests of Mattson’s financial statements or of the underlying transactions. Instead, the auditor computes a few ratios and compares the current-year ratio values to the ratio values a year ago. If the ratio values appear reasonable, the auditor concludes that Mattson’s financial statements are okay.
Answer:
Identification of the Internal Control Weaknesses:
A. There is no segregation of duties and there is lack of access control. Jerry Miller as a security guard is not expected to have a master key to the cash box. With this he can pilfer the cash. If he prepares the report that shows the number of cars that parked on the lot, he is not supposed to also prepare the day's cash receipts. Otherwise, he can state any number of cars as parked that he likes, and which corresponds to the cash he might leave in the Cash box since he also has a master key.
B. There is no segregation of duties and there is lack of supervision, proper reconciliations, and assets audit. Sharon Fisher handles purchase transactions from the beginning to the close all alone with a third party. This exposes the company to procurement frauds and collusion with suppliers. She can purchase assets for the company at prices that would enrich her personally.
C. Forming an audit opinion on the basis of ratio analysis of last year's comparative financial statements exposes the company to audit risks. While ratio analysis is part of the basis for forming audit opinions, it is surely not the first audit procedure to obtain audit evidence to support his audit opinion on the financial statements. An auditor is expected to obtain sufficient audit evidence and perform audit substantive tests of financial statement assertions. He or she is also expected to review the internal control system to ensure that it is operating effectively after establishing its existence and reviewing changes in internal controls.
Explanation:
Internal Controls are controls established by management in order to help it achieve business goals. There are many internal controls, including Separation of Duties, Access Controls , Authorization and Approvals, Asset Audits, Reconciliations, and Data Backups. The purposes of internal controls are to establish the reliability of financial reporting, ensure timely feedback on the achievement of operational or strategic goals, and achieve compliance with financial management laws, and accounting regulations.
Henri earned a salary of $50,000 in 2001 and $70,000 in 2006. The consumer price index was 177 in 2001 and 265.5 in 2006. Henri's 2006 salary in 2001 dollars is
Answer:
Henri's 2006 salary in 2001 dollars =$46,666.66
Explanation:
A rise in the price index implies inflation
Inflation is the increase in the general price level. Inflation erodes the value of money.
This price index is the weighted average price of a basket of goods and services consumed by a typical consumer. It is used to measure the rate of inflation.
So we can determine the salary in the base year value as follows:
2006 Salary in the base year terms=
CPI base year/CPI in the current year × salary in the current year
CPI base year- 177, CPI in the current yea- 256.5,
Salary in the current year - 70,000
Henri 2006 Salary in 2001 Dollar
=177/265.5 ×70,000/265.5 = 46,666.66
Henri's 2006 salary in 2001 dollars =$46,666.66
You have just taken out a $ 23 comma 000 car loan with a 4 % APR, compounded monthly. The loan is for five years. When you make your first payment in one month, how much of the payment will go toward the principal of the loan and how much will go toward interest? (Note: Be careful not to round any intermediate steps less than six decimal places.)
Answer:
Interest = $75.90
Principal = $347.64
Explanation:
First find the payment that is required per month. It will be an Annuity payment as the present value of the loan is given.
The loan is for 5 years compounded monthly so period is;
= 5 years * 12 months
= 60
Interest = 4/12
Present Value of Annuity= Payment * (1 - (1 + r) ^ -n)/r
23,000 = Payment * (1 - ( 1 + 4/12%) ^ -⁶⁰)/ 4/12%
23,000 = Payment * 54.304
Payment = 23,000/54.304
= $423.54
Interest Payment is;
= 4/12% * 23,000
= $75.90
Amount going towards Principal;
= 423.54 - 75.90
= $347.64
Company A is a manufacturer with current sales of $3,700,000 and a 60% contribution margin. Its fixed costs equal $1,810,000. Company B is a consulting firm with current service revenues of $3,800,000 and a 20% contribution margin. Its fixed costs equal $330,000.Compute the degree of operating leverage (DOL) for each company.Identify which company benefits more from a 20% increase in sales.Company ACompany B
Answer:
Company A 5.41
Company B 1.76
Company A benefits more from a 20% increase in sales.
Explanation:
The computation of the degree of operating leverage is shown below:-
Particulars Company A Company B
Sales $3,700,000 $3,800,000
Less:
Variable cost $1,480,000 $3,040,000
($3,700,000 × 40%) ($3,800,000 × 80%)
Contribution
margin $2,220,000 $760,000
($3,700,000 × 60%) ($3,800,000 × 80%)
Less:
Fixed cost $1,810,000 $330,000
Pretax income $410,000 $430,000
After this we need to go further so that we can find out the degree of operating leverage For both company
For Company A
= Contribution margin ÷ Pretax income
= $2,220,000 ÷ $410,000
= 5.41
For company B
= Contribution margin ÷ Pretax income
= $760,000 ÷ $430,000
= 1.76
So, from the above calculation we can see that Company A is higher than Company B.
Which of the following statements regarding a firm’s optimal capital structure is true? The optimal capital structure maximizes the firm’s earnings per share (EPS). The optimal capital structure maximizes the firm’s cost of equity. The optimal capital structure maximizes the firm’s cost of debt. The optimal capital structure maximizes the firm’s stock price.
Answer: The optimal capital structure maximizes the firm’s stock price.
Explanation:
The Capital Structure of a company refers to the proportion of debt vs equity that it chooses to use to fund its Assets and operations.
The goal of management is to use the capital structure to fund the company in such a way that the market value of a company increases.
The Market value is reflected by the firm's stock price so the optimal capital structure is meant to maximize the firm’s stock price.

Texas-Q Company produces and sells barbeque grills. Texas-Q sells three models: a small portable gas grill, a larger stationary gas grill, and the specialty smoker. In the coming year, Texas-Q expects to sell 20,000 portable grills, 50,000 stationary grills, and 5,000 smokers. Information on the three models is as follows:
Portable Stationary Smokers
Price $90 $200 $250
Variable cost per unit 45 130 140
Total fixed cost is $2,128,500.
Required:
1. What is the sales mix of portable grills to stationary grills to smokers?
2. Compute the break-even quantity of each product.
Answer:
1.
Sales mix
Portable grills = 20000/75000 = 4/15 or 26.67%
Stationary grills = 50000/75000 = 2/3 or 66.67%
Smokers = 5000/75000 = 1/15 or 6.67%
2.
Break even in units
Overall = 2128500 / 66 = 32250 units
Portable = 32250 * 4/15 = 8600
Stationary = 32250 * 2/3 = 21500
Smokers = 32250 * 1/15 = 2150
Explanation:
1.
The sales mix is the proportion of sales in units that each product holds in the in relation to the total overall sales in units of all products. The sales mix is calculated as follows,
Sales mix proportion of Product A = Sales in units Product A/Total number of sales in units of all products
The total number of sales in units of all products is,
Total sales in units = 20000 + 50000 + 5000 = 75000 units
Sales mix
Portable grills = 20000/75000 = 4/15 or 26.67%
Stationary grills = 50000/75000 = 2/3 or 66.67%
Smokers = 5000/75000 = 1/15 or 6.67%
2.
We will compute the overall break even point in units in then divide it according to the sales mix to calculate the break even in units of each product.
To calculate the overall break even in units, we need to determine the weighted average contribution per unit.
Weighted average contribution per unit = 4/15 * (90 - 45) + 2/3 * (200 - 130) + 1/15 * (250 - 140)
Weighted average contribution per unit = 66
Break even in units
Overall = 2128500 / 66 = 32250 units
Portable = 32250 * 4/15 = 8600
Stationary = 32250 * 2/3 = 21500
Smokers = 32250 * 1/15 = 2150

Answer:
The answer is $650
Explanation:
Net income = $260
Total sales = $1,160
Costs = $650
Depreciation = $110
Earnings before Interest and tax(EBIT) =
Total sales - Cost - depreciation
$1,160 - $650 - $110
= $400
Tax =[260 ÷ (1 - 0.35)] - 260
$400 - $260
$140
Operating cash flow is therefore,
Earnings before Interest and tax(EBIT) + depreciation + tax
$400 + $110 + $140
= $650
Lincoln Restaurants reported net income in 2019 of $48.10 million and depreciation expense of $51.00 million. It also reported additions to property and equipment of $165.10 million. Using the indirect method of preparing the statement of cash flows, how will these items impact the 2019 statement of cash flows
Answer and Explanation:
The impact of each item is as follows
Net income reported = shown in the operating activities
Depreciation expense = added to the net income and shown in the operating activities
Additions to the property and equipment = Since there is an addition that means the property and equipment are purchased so it would be shown in the investing activities under the negative sign as it is cash outflow
When you take your first job, you decide to start saving right away for your retirement. You put $5,000 per year into a saving plan, which interest rate 10% per year. Five years later, you move to another job and stop making contributions to the saving plan. If the first plan continued to earn interest for another 35 years, determine the future worth in year 40.
Answer:
FV= $857,840.94
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
First investment:
Annual deposit= $5,000 per year
Interest rate= 10%
Number of years= 5
Second investment:
Number of years= 35
Interest rate= 10%
Lumpsum= first investment
First, we need to calculate the future value of the first investment. We will use the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
FV= {5,000*[(1.1^5) - 1]} / 0.10
FV= $30,525.5
Now, the future value of the second investment.
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 30,525.5*(1.1^35)
FV= $857,840.94
Units-of-Output DepreciationA tractor acquired at a cost of $420,000 has an estimated residual value of $30,000, has an estimated useful life of 25,000 hours, and was operated 1,850 hours during the year. Determine the following. If required, round your answer for the depreciation rate to two decimal places.(a) The depreciable cost $ (b) The depreciation rate $ per hour(c) The units-of-output depreciation for the year $
Answer:
a. $390,000
b. $15.6
c. $28,860
Explanation:
depreciable cost = cost of asset - salvage value = $420,000 - $30,000 = $390,000
(b) The depreciation rate $ per hour = depreciable cost / estimated useful life = $390,000 / 25,000 = $15.6
The units-of-output depreciation for the year = $15.6 x 1,850 hours = $28,860
