Answer:
0.23
Explanation:
Debt to Equity Ratio = Total debt/ Total common equity
Market to book Ratio = Market price per share / Book value per share
Book debt to Market equity Ratio = Debt to Equity Ratio / Market to book Ratio
Book debt to Market equity Ratio = 0.69 / 3
Book debt to Market equity Ratio = 0.23
Therefore, the ratio is 0.23
A company budgeted unit sales of 274000 units for January, 2017 and 310000 units for February 2017. The company has a policy of having an inventory of units on hand at the end of each month equal to 30% of next month's budgeted unit sales. If there were 82200 units of inventory on hand on December 31, 2016, how many units should be produced in January, 2017 in order for the company to meet its goals
Answer:
Calculation of the Ending inventory required to be maintained
Particulars Amount
Next months budgeted sales 310,000
% of unit required to be maintained 30%
at the end of current month
Number of units required to be 93,000
maintained at the end of the
current month
Unit to be produced = Budgeted sales for the month + Ending inventory + Beginning inventory
Unit to be produced = 274,000 + 93,000 + 82,200
Unit to be produced = 449,200
Thus, the number of units to be produced in the month of January 2013 are 449,200 units.
Downtown Bancshares has 40,000 shares of $8 par common stock outstanding. Suppose Downtown declares and distributes a 16% stock dividend when the market value of its stock is $20 per share.
1. Journalize Downtown's declaration and distribution of the stock dividend on May 11. An explanation is not required.
2. What was the overall effect of the stock dividend on Downtown's total assets? On total liabilities?
Answer and Explanation:
1. The journal entry is shown below:
Retained earnings Dr (40,000 shares × 16% × $20) $128,000
To Common stock (40,000 shares × 16% × $8) $51,200
To Paid in capital in excess of par value - common stock $76,800
(Being the declaration and the stock distribution is recorded)
2. Since the retained earnings is debited which reduced the equity by $128,000 but at the same time it also increased the equity via common stock and paid in capital by $128,000 so the overall effect should be NIL or zero
Also the assets and liabilities remains unaffected

Polly Khan is trying to calculate the current market rate given the following information: Investor’s have been requiring a 12% annual return on Builtrite’s stock which has a beta of 2.0 and the current risk-free rate is 4%. What is the current market rate?
Answer:
The current market rate is 8%
Explanation:
The market rate is the return on market or the market portfolio. To calculate the market rate (rM) we will use the CAPM equation which is used to calculate the required rate of return on a stock or portfolio. The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,
r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)
Where,
rRF is the risk free raterM is the market rateWe already know the value of r, rRF and Beta. We will input these values in the above equation to calculate the market rate.
0.12 = 0.04 + 2 * (rM - 0.04)
0.12 - 0.04 = 2 * rM - 0.08
0.08 + 0.08 = 2 * rM
0.16 / 2 = rM
rM = 0.08 or 8%
When recording journal entries for production costs using a standard cost accounting system, the debit to Work in Process Inventory account is for the ______ amount.
Answer: Actual amount
Explanation:
Standard Costing deviates from traditional accounting in that it is not based on historical costs of a good. In standard cost accounting, the actual costs are put in place of standard costs and then the variance between the two will be recorded and used for analysis.
The debit to the Work in Process Inventory account under a standard cost accounting system will be the actual amount.
Booher Book Stores has a beta of 1.0. The yield on a 3-month T-bill is 3% and the yield on a 10-year T-bond is 6%. The market risk premium is 4.5%, and the return on an average stock in the market last year was 10.5%. What is the estimated cost of common equity using the CAPM
Answer:
Cost of equity = 10.5%
Explanation:
The capital asset pricing model is a risk-based model. Here, the return on equity is dependent on the level of reaction of the the equity to changes in the return on a market portfolio. These changes are captured as systematic risk. The magnitude by which a stock is affected by systematic risk is measured by beta.
Under CAPM, Ke= Rf + β(Rm-Rf)
Rf-risk-free rate (long-term i.e 10 year treasury bill rate), β= Beta, Rm= Return on market., Ke- Return on equity (cost of equity)
This model can be used to work out the cost of equity as follows:
Ke= Rf + β (Rm-Rf)
Rf- 6%, β= 1.0, Rm- 10.5, E(r)- ?
Ke = 6% + 1.0× (10.5 -6)% = 10.5%
Ke = 10.5%
Cost of equity = 10.5%
Which of the following would not be appropriate to consider in the physical design of a data center?
A
Inclusion of an uninterruptible power supply system and surge protection
B
Use of biometric access systems
С
Evaluation of potential risks from railroad lines and highways
D
Design of authorization tables for operating system access
It is not appropriate to consider this in the physical design of a data center: D Design of authorization tables for operating system access.
The physical design of a data center has nothing to do with the design of authorization tables for operating system access, which is mainly a logical control device, and not a physical control.
This factor is actually taken care of after the data center has been located, designed, built, and fully equipped for operation. Moreover, the design of authorization tables for operating system access has something to do with logical controls and not physical controls.
However, during the physical design, there is always the need to consider the inclusion of an uninterruptible power supply system, surge protector, bio-metric access systems, and the potential risks from railroad lines and highways.
Thus, the issue that should not be considered in the physical design of a data center is the design of authorization tables for operating system access.

c. By selling the equipment to an unrelated party and by contributing $150,000 to the partnership instead.
d. Harry's tax basis in his partnership interest is $130,000.
e. Sally's tax basis in her partnership interest is $200,000
f. Evergreen's tax basis in its assets is $330,000
g. Total assets = Total Capital = $330,000
Explanation:
Note: The data in the question are merged together and they are first sorted before answering the questions as follows:
Harry: Basis Fair Market Value
Cash $30,000 $30,000
Land 100,000 120,000
Totals $130,000 $150,000
Sally:
Equipment used in a business 200,000 150,000
Totals $200,000 $150,000
The explanations to the answers are now provided as follows:
a. How much gain or loss will Harry recognize on the contribution?
Harry will recognize $0 because he did not have any debt relief.
The reason is that gain on property contributed by a partner to a partnership will be recognized only when the debt relief they seemed to have received is greater than their basis in the partnership before the distribution.
Since Harry did not have any debt relief, he will therefore recognize $0.
b. How much gain or loss will Sally recognize on the contribution?
Sally will also recognize $0.
It is possible that when partners contributes property to a partnership, loss may not be recognized even if they have debt relief. Therefore, it not in all cases that loss are recognized.
c. How could the transaction be structured a different way to get a better result for Sally?
This transaction could be structured differently if Sally decides to sell the equipment to an unrelated party and then make a cash contribution of $150,000 to the partnership instead of contributing the equipment. As a result of this, it will be possible for Sally to recognize the built-in loss on the equipment by selling it.
d. What is Harry's tax basis in his partnership interest?
The basis of Harry in his partnership interest can be obtained by adding his contribution of cash and land to the partnership as follows:
Harry's tax basis = $30,000 + $100,000 = $130,000.
Therefore, Harry's tax basis in his partnership interest is $130,000.
e. What is Sally's tax basis in her partnership interest?
This is simply the amount of her contribution of $200,000 basis in the equipment.
Therefore, Sally's tax basis in her partnership interest is $200,000.
f. What is Evergreen's tax basis in its assets?
This can be calculated by adding the Harry's basis in cash and land of $30,000 and $100,000 respectively together with Sally's basis in equipment of $200,000 as follows:
Evergreen's tax basis in its assets = $30,000 + $100,000 + $200,000 = $330,000
Therefore, Evergreen's tax basis in its assets is $330,000.
e. Prepare a tax basis balance sheet for the Evergreen partnership showing the tax basis capital accounts for the partners.
This can be prepared as follows:

A company purchases its inventory from suppliers on account. During the year, its inventory account increased by $17 million and its accounts payable to suppliers decreased by $5 million. If cost of goods sold was $520 million, its cash outflows to inventory suppliers totaled:
Answer: $542 million
Explanation:
The following can be gotten from the question:
The increase in inventory = $17 million
The decrease in the accounts payable = $5 million
The cost of goods sold = $520 million
Inventory Purchased = $520 million + $17 million = $537 million.
The cash outflows to inventory suppliers will be the inventory bought plus the decrease in the accounts payable. This will be:
= $537 million + $5 million
= $542 million

Question 4 James Bennett also allocates wealth between youth and old age. He has no cash currently (in his youth), but will inherit $3000 in his old age. He can lend and borrow at the bank at 18% (that is, lending $1 in youth will give him $1.18 in old age). He has an investment opportunity that costs $12,000 now in his youth and has a payoff of $15,000 in his old age. This is the only investment opportunity available to him. What is the most he can consume in his youth
James Bennet needs us to locate investment opportunities for him.
James divides his fortune between youth and old age, as is shown to us. He is currently cashless.
He has access to bank borrowing and lending at 18%.
Some investment opportunities are presented to him.
Investing is the act of placing money into a bank, a piece of property, or a company.
Savings can also take the form of investments.
The most he should spend while still young is $15,254.23.
This calculation is displayed.
The future value is the present value times 1.18.
Future worth = $15,000 + $3,000
= $ 18,000
Therefore, the present value is equal to $18,000 divided by 1.18.
= $ 15, 254.23.

A competitive pressure in business management can be defined as the degree of competition faced by a firm which involves the process of seeking to have a significant share of the available customers and market in a specific industry.
Firms that compete in the global marketplace typically face two types of competitive pressures, namely, the pressures for global integration and local responsiveness.
A global integration can be defined as the degree to which a particular firm can make use of the available resources, products and methods in another country.
On the other hand, local responsiveness can be defined as the extent to which a particular firm must customize or tailor its products and methods of production in order to meet conditions in another country.
Chuck has $2,500 invested in a bank that pays 4% annually. The length of time it will take for his funds to double is closest to:
Answer:
The answer is 17.67 years.
Explanation:
Present value is $2,500
Future value of the money to be double of the present value. This means the future value will be $5,000($2,500 x 2)
Interest rate is 4%
Number of years or periods to reach this $5,000 is unknown. So we are looking for this.
To compute this number of periods, lets use Financial calculator.
I/Y = 4; PV= -2,500; FV= 5,000; CPT N= 17.67 years.
Therefore, the number of years to accumulate to $5,000 is 17.67 years
Rob and Lori purchased a home for $350,000 with an additional $5,000 in related purchase costs and then added a garage at a cost of $25,000. They sold the home for $450,000 and paid $28,000 in selling costs. How much was adjusted basis?
Answer: $380,000
Explanation:
To calculate the adjusted basis, we add the original cost, to the improvement cost and and then deduct depletion and depreciation cost.
From the scenario, since Rob and Lori purchased a home for $350,000 with an additional $5,000 in related purchase costs and then added a garage at a cost of $25,000 and then sold the home for $450,000 and paid $28,000 in selling costs.
The adjusted basis will be:
= $350,000 + $5,000 + $25,000
= $380,000
Conor Airlines Inc. recently issued $50 par value preferred stock that pays a 8.25% dividend rate per year. Yahoo.finance shows that the stock has a beta of 0.97. The current risk-free rate is 2.50% and the market return is 11%. Assuming that CAPM holds, what is the intrinsic value of this preferred stock?
Answer: $38.39
Explanation:
First calculate the required return according to CAPM;
Required return = Risk free rate + beta ( market return - risk free rate)
= 2.50% + 0.97 ( 11% - 2.50%)
= 10.745%
Then using the Dividend discount model and remembering that there is no growth rate;
Value = Next dividend / ( required return - growth rate)
= (50 * 8.25%) / ( 10.745% - 0)
= 4.125/10.745%
= $38.39
Answer:
$38.29
Explanation:
Ke = Rf+Beta*(Rm-Rf)
Ke=0.0250+0.97*(0.11+0.0250)
Ke=0.10745
Ke=10.75 appr.
Po= Dividend / (Ke-g)
Po= 50*0.0825 / (0.10745 - 0)
Po=4.125/0.10745
Po=38.3899
Po=38.29
Thus, the intrinsiv value of this preferred stock is $38.29
