Answer:

Discounted payback period = 6.68 years

Explanation:

Year Cash inflow$   Discounted cash     Cumulative discounted

                                          inflow$                      cash inflow$

1          14,000                    12,389                            12,389

2         14,000                    10,964                             23,353

3         14,000                     9,703                              33,056  

4         14,000                     8,586                              41,643    

5         14,000                     7,599                              49,241    

6         14,000                      6,724                             55,966    

7         14,000                      5,951                              61,917

Discounted cash inflow is calculated by discounting cash inflow at 13%. For example, discounted cash-flow in year 1 = 14,000 / (1+13%)^1 = 12,389.

Similarly, discounted cash-flow in year 2 = 14,000 / (1+13%)^2 = 10,964. And so on.

Cumulative cash-flows are sum of all cashflows till that year. For example, year 2 cumulative cashflow = 12,389 + 10,964 = 23,353.

Similarly, year 3 cumulative cash-flow = 23,353 + 9,703 = 33,056.

This cumulative cash-flow crosses 60,000 in year 7, so discounted payback period = 6 + (60,000-55,966) / 5,951

Discounted payback period = 6.68 years

Answer:

$18.60

Explanation:

Calculation for the price-earnings ratio

Answer:

This question is incomplete, the options are missing. The options are the following:

a) Exhibitive.

b) Transit.

c) Direct mail.

d) Outdoor.

e) Print.

And the correct answer is the option A: Exhibitive.

Explanation:

To begin with, the term known as "Exhibitive Media", in the field of marketing and business, refers to the strategy used by the companies whose approach is in the point of sale marketing. This type of strategy focus on exhibiting the product to the costumer the closer as possible so it will generate an impulse on the client of buying the product without having it thought before seeing the product. A very common example of this strategy is the situation in where the supermarkets fill their lines to the cashier with other retails that have product that are attractive at first sight.

Answer:

Use goal seek to answer this question. All else equals, to have a net income of 20,000, the COGS margin percentage must be 40%, and the gross profit must be $17,250.

Explanation:

The income statement is missing, so I looked it up and the information given was:

Since COGS are$40,000 and total sales are $100,000, the COGS margin percentage = 40,000 / 100,000 = 40%

Since earnings before taxes are $23,000 and taxes are 25%, then net income = $23,000 x (1 - 25%) = $23,000 x 75% = $17,250

Answer:

future liabilities:

$1,000 in 6 months

$1,000 in 1 year

Present value of bond I (due in 6 months):

PV = $1,000 / (1 + 3%) = $970.87

Present value of bond II (due in 1 year):

PV = $1,000 / (1 + 3.5%)² = $933.51

The price of the bonds is determined by the annual yield rate (YTM), not the coupon rate. Joe will pay $970.87 for bond I and $933.51 for bond II.

Answer:

$15.66 per carton

Explanation:

118,000 cartons of machine screws

equipment cost $785,000

depreciation per year = $785,000 / 5 = $157,000

fixed manufacturing costs $415,000 per year

variable costs per carton = $10.05 x 118,000 = $1,185,900

initial investment in net working capital $68,000

tax rate 24%

discount rate 12%

price per carton?

initial investment = -$853,000

CF₁ = [(R - $1,600,000 - $157,000) x 0.76] + $157,000 = 0.76R - $1,178,320

CF₂ = [(R - $1,600,000 - $157,000) x 0.76] + $157,000 = 0.76R - $1,178,320

CF₃ = [(R - $1,600,000 - $157,000) x 0.76] + $157,000 = 0.76R - $1,178,320

CF₄ = [(R - $1,600,000 - $157,000) x 0.76] + $157,000 = 0.76R - $1,178,320

CF₅ = [(R - $1,600,000 - $157,000) x 0.76] + $157,000 + $68,000 = 0.76R + $1,110,320

$853,000 = (0.76R - $1,178,320) / 1.12 + (0.76R - $1,178,320) / 1.12² + (0.76R - $1,178,320) / 1.12³ + (0.76R - $1,178,320) / 1.12⁴ + (0.76R + $1,110,320 ) / 1.12⁵ = 0.6786R - $1,052,071.43 + 0.6059R - $939,349.49 + 0.541R - $838,704.90 + 0.483R - $748,943.66 + 0.4312R + $630,025.39

$853,000 = 2.7397R - $4,209,094.87

$5,062,094.87 = 2.7397R

R = $5,062,094.87 / 2.7397 = $1,847,682.18

total revenue = $1,847,682.18

revenue per carton = $1,847,682.18 / 118,000 = $15.6583 = $15.66

Answer: Yes it's possible as long as Tom and Sara gives a written consent to the dual agency arrangement.

Answer:

Liabilities at the end of the year were: $15,000.

Explanation:

Using the Accounting Equation : Assets = Equity + Liability

Then we know that,

Liability = Assets - Equity

Opening Balance of Liabilities ( $30,000 - $20,000)               = $10,000

Adjustment during the year ($20,000 - ($45,000 - $30,000)) = $5,000

Answer:

Discounted payback period= 2 years 1 month

Explanation:

The discounted payback period is the estimated length of time in years it takes  the present value of net cash inflow from a project to equate the net cash the initial cost  

To work out the discounted payback period, we will compute present value of the cash inflow and then determine how long it will take for the sum to be equal to the initial cost. This is done as follows:

Year          Cash flow    DF             Present value                

0              900    ×          1        =     900                

1               500     ×      1.1^(-1)   =     454.55

2             500     ×      1.1^(-2)    =    413.22

2             500     ×      1.1^(-3)   =      375.66

Total PV for 2 years = 454.55  +  413.22 = 867.77

Balance of cash flow remaining to equal 900 = 900 -867.77  = 32.23

Discounted payback period = 32.23 /375.66 × 12 months

                                               = 2 years 1 month

Discounted payback period= 2 years 1 month

Answer:

Expected return in( %) =16.80 %

Explanation:

The Dividend Valuation Model (DVM) is a technique used to value the worth of an asset.

According to this model, the value of an asset is the sum of the present values of the future cash flows would that arise from the asset discounted at the required rate of return.  

If dividend is expected to grow at a given rate , the expected return on share can be determined as follows:

Ke=Do (1+g)/P  + g

Do - dividend in the following year, Ke- requited rate of return , g- growth rate, P-price

DATA:

Do- 1.45

g- 6.5%

P- price

Ke = (1.45× (1.065)/15) + 0.065= 0.16795

Return in % = 0.16795  × 100 = 16.80 %

Return in( %) =16.80 %

Options:

a. technology has changed the structural economy so much that asset inflation is no longer a concern.

b. historically there has been asset deflation and now there is asset inflation.

c. during the financial crisis of 2008 there was asset deflation which can lead to overall deflation.

d. during the financial crisis of 2008 there was asset deflation

Answer:

c. during the financial crisis of 2008 there was asset deflation which can lead to overall deflation.

Explanation:

Unexpectedly, during the 2008 financial crises that had a firm grip on the US economy. Economist observed a trend of asset deflation.

For example, the real estate sector saw a reduction in the general level of prices homes in the economy. Thus, this meant that a too low inflation would lead to overall deflation, and it was a concern for policy makers.

Answer:

1 a. Materials price and quantity variances.

Material price variance = (Actual price - Standard price) * Actual Quantity purchased

= ($2.45 - $2) * 15,800

= $0.45 * 15,800

= $7110 (Unfavorable)

Materials Quantity variance = (Actual Quantity used - Standard Quantity allowed) * Standard price  

(10600 - 3000 * 3.6) * $2

= (10,600 -  10,800) * $2

= 200 * $2

= 400 (Favorable)

b. Labor rate and efficiency variances.

Labor rate variance = (Actual rate - standard rate) * Actual hours

= (6.30 - 6.6) * 2,100

= 0.3 * 2,100

= 630 (Favorable)

Labor Efficiency variance  = (Actual hours - standard hours allowed) *  Standard rate  

= (2100 - 3000 * 0.5) * 6.6

= (2,100 - 1,500) * 6.6

= 600 * 6.6

= 3960 (Unfavorable)

c. Variable overhead rate and efficiency variances

Variable overhead rate variance  = (Actual rate - Standard rate * Actual machine hours)

= 3000 - (2.10 * 1200)

= 3,000 - 2,520

= 480 Unfavorable

Variable overhead Efficiency variance = (Actual hours - standard hours allowed)* Standard rate

= (1200 - 3000 * 0.3) * 2.10    

= (1200 - 900) * 2.10

= 300 * 2.10

= 630 (Unfavorable)

2.    Variances                                            Amount

Material price variance                             7,110 U

Material quantity variance                         400 F

Labor rate variance                                    630 F

Labor efficiency variance                           3,960 U

Variable overhead rate variance               480 U

Variable overhead efficiency variance      630 U

Net variance                                                11,150 U

The net variance of all the variance of the month is 11,150 (Unfavorable)

Answer:

When the Fed raises the federal funds rate, the inflation rate decreases about two years later.

Explanation:

When trying to stimulate the economy either by increasing or decreasing, policymakers have to take into consideration how it would effect interest rate, amount of money available in the economy, loans that would be acquired by banks and the behavior of interest rate.

Interest rate can be impacted quickly even though the period of time it would take for such action to have a reflection on what quantity of money is available in the economy. Then also a period of 2 years would be taken for this action to take effect on inflation.

Therefore

When the Fed raises the federal funds rate, the inflation rate decreases about two years later.

Answer:

a. to indicate where changes in technology and machinery need to be made.

Explanation:

Standard cost in business management refers to the amount of money a product is supposed to cost in manufacturing it. It is a management tool that can be used to measure efficiency in the level of output or production of goods and services at a specific period of time.

In Financial accounting, the difference between the actual cost of each unit of a product and its standard cost is referred to as variance. In order to determine the standard cost of a product, the expected quantity of the product is multiplied by an expected price.

Standard costs are used in companies for a variety of reasons such as;

1. Standard costs are used to estimate the cost of inventory.

2. Standard costs are used to plan direct materials, direct labor, and variable factory overhead.

3. Standard costs are used to control costs.

However, standard costs cannot be used to indicate where changes in technology and machinery need to be made rather an actual cost should be used.

Additionally, the standard cost of each unit of a product manufactured in a business firm is categorized into two (2) and these are;

1. Price standard.

2. Quantity standard.

Answer: revenue focus

Explanation:

A location decision for a traditional department store (e.g., Macy's) would tend to have revenue focus. For every organization or company, revenue plays a vital role in the organization.

A traditional department store will shift its focus to a location whereby it can meet the needs of the people daily and generate as much revenue as possible.

Answer: a. Governmental activities

Explanation:

Internal Service funds in Government record entries that are related to the provision of goods and services from one government department to another on a cost reimbursement basis. The fund therefore shows the cost of providing some goods and services.

In Government-wide financial statements, it is therefore recorded under Governmental activities as it has to do with internal Government departments.

Group of answer choices:

A. increase competition.

B. expand the profit pool.

C. provide better customer service.

D. satisfy regulators

Answer:

B. expand the profit pool.

Explanation:

Outside the flight experience itself, airlines are generating revenue by charging fees for credit cards, frequent-flyer programs, and access to airport lounges. This serves to expand the profit pool.

Generally, all business entities are typically set up to generate revenues by engaging or increasing the number of services being offered to potential customers and as a result of this, make more money or profits.

In this scenario, the airline company has diversified its portfolios through the provision of services centered around the transport or logistics business such as use of credit cards as a means of payment by the customers, use of airport lounges as relaxation spot, waiting area and use of frequent-flyer programs as a form of advert in the airport or on board.

Answer:

Yes, Juan did have apparent authority to act.

Explanation:

In the situation that is being described it can be said that Yes, Juan did have apparent authority to act. Even though Anna has asked Juan to let her review the transaction before entering into a contract, she gave Juan the authority to act on her behalf and represent her as an authority in the auto dealership when she made him a sales agent. Therefore any and all contracts entered by Juan in the dealership are binding on Anna as well.

Answer:

b. central tendency error

Explanation:

Central tendency error is the error in which the rater propensity could place the most items on the middle side of the rating scale. In this the employer puts the employees based on the performance i.e it varies from 4 to 7, 8 to 10, 1 to 3, etc

Therefore in the given situation, when the rate of assessors determined the rate for all workers as an average so the central tendency occurs

Hence, the correct option is b.
