Quantitative Problem 2: Carlysle Corporation has perpetual preferred stock outstanding that pays a constant annual dividend of $1.90 at the end of each year. If investors require an 7% return on the preferred stock, what is the price of the firm's perpetual preferred stock? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent. $ per share
Answer:
$27.14
Explanation:
Calculation for the price of the firm's perpetual preferred stock
Using this formula
Price of the firm perpetual preferred stock = Annual dividend / Required return
Where,
Annual dividend =$1.90
Required return=7% or 0.07
Let plug in the formula
Price of the firm perpetual preferred stock = $1.90 / 0.07
Price of the firm perpetual preferred stock=$27.14
Therefore the Price of the firm perpetual preferred stock will be $27.14

As assistant to the CFO of Boulder Inc., you must estimate the Year 1 cash flow for a project with the following data:
Sales revenues $13,000
Depreciation $4,000
Other operating costs $6,000
Tax rate 35.0%
What is the Year 1 cash flow?
a. $6,962
b. $5,950
c. $7,438
d. $5,177
e. $7,378
Answer:
$5,950
Explanation:
Boulder incorporation reported the following data for year 1
Sales revenue= $13,000
Depreciation= $4,000
Other operating costs= $6,000
Tax rate= 35%
The first step is to calculate the EBIT
= sales revenue-operating costs-depreciation
= $13,000-$6,000-$4,000
= $3,000
Therefore, the cash flow for year 1 can be calculated as follows
= 3,000×35/100
= 3,000×0.35
= 1,050
= 3,000-1,050
= 1,950
Cash flow= 4,000+1,950
= $5,950
Hence the cash flow for year 1 is $5,950

Sally Rubber Co. has an expected net operating profit after taxes, EBIT (1-T), of $1,700 million in the coming year. In addition, the firm is expected to have net capital expenditures of $255 million, and net operating working capital (NOWC) is expected to increase by $45 million. How much free cash flow (FCF) is Sally Rubber Co. expected to generate over the next year?
Answer:
$1,400 million
Explanation:
Calculation for free cash flow (FCF)
Using this formula
Free cash flow= Net income+ Non cash expenses-Net capital expenditures- Increase in Net operating working capital
Let plug in the formula
Free cash flow=$1,700 million + $0 million -$255 million -$45 million
Free cash flow =$1,400 million
Therefore the amount of free cash flow (FCF) that Sally Rubber Co. expected to generate over the next year will be $1,400 million

Required:Prepare a forecasted contribution margin income statement for 2018 assuming the company purchases this machine.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price= $244
Unitary variable cost= 195 - 8= $187
Fixed costs= 327,600 + 37,000= $364,600
We need to determine the new pre-tax income:
Sales= 244*10,000= 2,440,000
Total variable cost= 187*10,000= (1,870,000)
Total contribution margin= 570,000
Fixed costs= (364,600)
Pre-tax income= 205,400
Answer the following questions. 1. A company has an inventory of 1,200 assorted parts for a line of missiles that has been discontinued. The inventory cost is $71,000. The parts can be either (a) remachined at total additional costs of $24,000 and then sold for $32,000 or (b) sold as scrap for $5,000. Which action is more profitable? Show your calculations. 2. A truck, costing $104,000 and uninsured, is wrecked its first day in use. It can be either (a) disposed of for $15,500 cash and replaced with a similar truck costing $105,500 or (b) rebuilt for $85,500, and thus be brand-new as far as operating characteristics and looks are concerned. Which action is less costly? Show your calculations.
Answer:
1) the $71,000 is considered a sunk cost because it cannot be recovered.
option A yields $32,000 - $24,000 = $8,000 (this is more profitable)
option B yields $5,000
2) the $104,000 is also considered a sunk cost because it cannot be recovered
option A results in $105,500 - $15,500 = $90,000 in costs
option B costs $85,500 (this option is less costly)
(a) What alternative formats could P&G have adopted for its balance sheet? Which format did it adopt? (b) Identify the various techniques of disclosure P&G might have used to disclose additional pertinent financial information. Which technique does it use in its financials? (d) What were P&G's cash flows from its operating, investing, and financing activities for 2017? What were its trends in net cash provided by operating activities over the period 2015 to 2017? Explain why the change in accounts payable and in accrued and other liabilities is added to net income to arrive at net cash provided by operating activities.
Answer:
P&G 2017 K-10:
a) Alternative formats for P&G Balance Sheet:
1. Report Format: Assets and Liabilities and Equity are listed from up to down.
2. Account Format: Assets and Liabilities and Equity are stated side by side.
3. Liquidity Format: The most liquid assets are listed first and then followed by permanent assets, and the same for liabilities.
4. Permanency Format: Noncurrent assets are stated first before current assets, and the same for liabilities.
P&G reported under US GAAP adopted the Report Format and listed balance sheet items according to their liquidity.
b) Techniques of disclosure of additional financial information:
1. Parenthetical Explanation
2. Notes to the Financial Statements
3. Cross-referencing
4. Valuation Allowances, e.g allowances for doubtful accounts, accumulated depreciation, etc.
5. Supporting Schedules
6. Comparative Statements, with about three years of financial statements.
c) P&G used Notes to the Financial Statements with supporting schedules and comparative statements.
d) 2017 Cash flows from:
1. Operating Activities = $12,753 million
2. Investing Activities = ($5,689 million)
3. Financing Activities = ($8,568 million)
e. Trends in net cash provided by operating activities over the period 2015 to 2017:
Net cash provided by operating activities:
2015 = $14,608 million
2016 = $15,435 million
2017 = $12,753 million
It increased from 2015 to 2016 and decreased in 2017 as stated above.
f) The change in accounts payable, accrued, and other liabilities is added to net income to arrive at net cash provided by operating activities because they involve cash outflows for the payment of purchases for goods and services used in generating the revenue that produces the net income.
Explanation:
P&G as a US headquartered entity reported under US GAAP with the adoption of Balance Sheet instead of reporting under IFRS with the adoption of Statement of Financial Position. P&G called its Income Statement "Consolidated Statement of Earnings" instead of the IFRS "Consolidated Income Statement." Apart from nomenclature, the formats and disclosures are similar.
Which of the following is a plausible explanation for the difference between the net change in fund balances of governmental funds (fund-level statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances) and the change in net position of governmental activities (government-wide statement of activities)?
a. Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources and are not reported as expenditures in the fund-level statements.
b. Amounts reported as expenditures in the statement of activities are reported as capital assets in the fund-level statements.
c. Debt proceeds provide current financial resources in the statement of activities, but are reported as long-term liabilities in the fund-level statements
d. Depreciation of general fixed assets is not reported as an expense in the statement of activities, but it is reported as an expense in the fund-level
Answer:
a. Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources and are not reported as expenditures in the fund-level statements.
Explanation:
Governments maintain a statement of activities that are carried out, and fund-level statements are also maintained to track expenses of government.
When there is a disparity between the two, a plausible explanation will be that some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources and are not reported as expenditures in the fund-level statements.
For example some long term project that is carried out by the government may be treated by creating a budget. These expenses will not be recognized in the current expenses that make up fund-level expenses.

Ending Capital Balance= $43,745
Therefore the balance in the Capital account reported on the Statement of Owner's Equity at the end of the month would be: $43,745
Brunette Company is contemplating investing in a new piece of manufacturing machinery. The amount to be invested is $180,000. The present value of the future cash flows generated by the project is $163,000. Should they invest in this project?
Answer:
No, as the net present value comes in negative
Explanation:
As we know that
Net present value = Present value of cash inflows - Initial investment
where,
Present value os $163,000
And, the initial investment is $180,000
Now placing these values to the above formula
So, the net present value is
= $163,000 - $180,000
= -$17,000
Therefore the company should not accept the project as net present value is in negative that is -$17,000

if the fixed cost for the Job Shop were changed to $305,000, what would the new break-even point in numbers of units
Answer:
The question you have provided is missing important information needed for the calculation of break even point.
However step by step approach for the calculation of the break even point is given below :
Understand what break even point is :
Break even point is the level of operation where a Company neither makes a profit nor a loss.
Break even point in units calculation :
Break even point in units calculation = Fixed Costs for the Period ÷ Contribution per unit
Where, Contribution per unit = Selling Price per Unit less Variable Cost (Manufacturing and Non Manufacturing) per unit
Conclusion :
At Break Even Point level,Total Contribution will equal Total Fixed Cost (thus no profit nor loss)

(net) 650,000 765,000 Liabilities 255,000 255,000 Lake would record goodwill of
Answer:
Lake would record goodwill of $365,000
Explanation:
Fair value of net assets = Fair value of current asset + Fair value of property, plant and equipment
Fair value of net assets = $125,000 + $765,000
Fair value of net assets = $890,000
Fair market value = Fair value of net assets - Liabilities assumed
Fair market value = $890,000 - 255,000
Fair market value = $635,000
Goodwill = Consideration - Fair market value
= $1,000,000 - $635,000
= $365,000
Hence, the amount of goodwill is $365,000.
Analyze global labor supply factors in terms of quality and quantity. In your own words, present an example of how it varies in quality.
Explanation:
The supply of labor in terms of quality and quantity will be influenced by micro and macroeconomic factors.
The labor market is constituted by a relationship of labor supply and demand for employees, which is totally influenced by the economic context that a particular country is experiencing. For example, if there is an economic downturn, then there is likely to be less labor supply and less demand.
Looking at the global labor market, we can see how it varies from country to country.
In terms of quality, we can mention China for example, which is a country where there is a lot of work, but the labor force is one of the cheapest in the world, which makes this an extremely attractive labor market for the international market, but due to poor working conditions, there is often no quality in the work process for these employees.

Answer:
28.23%
Explanation:
ABC corporation has a sales of $17,910,000
The net operating income is $1,199,970
The average operating assets is $4,250,000
Therefore, the ROI can be calculated as follows
ROI= Net operating income/Average operating assets
= $1,199,970/$4,250,000
= 0.2823×100
= 28.23%
Hence the division's return on investment is closest to 28.23%

Suppose you invest $20,000 by purchasing 200 shares of Abbott Labs (ABT) at $50 per share, 200 shares of Lowes (LOW) at $30 per share, and 100 shares of Ball Corporation (BLL) at $40 per share. Suppose over the next year Ball has a return of %, Lowes has a return of %, and Abbott Labs has a return of . The return on your portfolio over the year is:
Answer:
3.8%
Explanation:
There are some important parts missing:
Suppose over the next year Ball has a return of 12.5%, Lowes has a return of 21%, and Abbott Labs has a return of -10%.
We must first determine the weight of each stock in the portfolio:
ABT = ($50 x 200) / $20,000 = 50%LOW = ($30 x 200) / $20,000 = 30%BLL = ($40 x 100) / $20,000 = 20%the expected return of the portfolio = (ABT x return) + (LOW x return) + (BLL x return) = (50% x -0.1) + (30% x 0.21) + (20% x .125) = -5% + 6.3% + 2.5% = 3.8%
