Airborne Airlines Inc. has a $1,000 par value bond outstanding with 10 years to maturity. The bond carries an annual interest payment of $90 and is currently selling for $960. Airborne is in a 20 percent tax bracket. The firm wishes to know what the aftertax cost of a new bond issue is likely to be. The yield to maturity on the new issue will be the same as the yield to maturity on the old issue because the risk and maturity date will be similar.

Required:
a. Compute the yield to maturity on the old issue and use this as the yield for the new issue.
b. Make the appropriate tax adjustment to determine the aftertax cost of debt.

Answers

Answer:Yield to maturity is 9.59%;  After tax cost of debt =7.672%

Explanation:

 A)   Yield to maturity ={ C + (FV-PV)/t} /  {(FV +PV)/2}

Where C – Interest payment    = $90

FV – Face value of the security

= $1000

PV – Present value/curent market value = $960

t – years it takes the security to reach maturity= 10 years

imputing the values and calculating,

yield to maturity ={ C + (FV-PV)/t} /  {(FV +PV)/2}

= $90 + (1000-960)/10} / 1000 + 960 /2

$90 + 4= $94 /980= 0.0959

therefore Yield to maturity is 9.59%

B)   After tax cost of debt =    Yield To Maturity  x (1 - tax rate)

=9.59% x (1-20%)= 9.59% x (1-0.2 )= 9.59% x 0.8 =

9.59 % x 80%=7.672%

Explanation:

1. Equilibrium Output or GDP is calculated by the expression;

Output or Y = Consumption + Investment + Government expenditure + Net exports

Net exports and Government expenditure are assumed to be 0.

Consumption  = 100 + 0.9Y

Investment = $300 billion

Y = 100 + 0.9Y + 300

Y - 0.9Y = 400

Y = 400/0.1

Y = $4,000 billion

2. Y = 50 + 0.9Y + 300

Y - 0.9Y = 350

0.1Y = 350

Y = 350/0.1

Y = $3,500 Billion

JWU Company has been growing at a rate of 5% for the past two years and is expected to continue for several years. The company paid a Dividend of $2.00 last year. If your required rate of return is 13%, what is the current value of this company’s stock?
A. $26.25
B. $15.38
C. $40.00
D. $29.50

Answers

Answer: A. $26.25

Explanation:

Using the Gordon Growth model, the value of the stock can be determined using the available variables.

The formula is;

Value of a Stock = Next Dividend / (Required Return - Growth Rate)

Value of a Stock  = Current Dividend (1 + Growth Rate) / (Required Return - Growth Rate)

= 2 ( 1 + 0.05) / ( 0.13 - 0.05)

= (2 * 1.05) / 0.08

= $26.25

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Unit produced 11,000

Variable cost per unit:

Direct materials $150

Direct labor $450

Variable manufacturing overhead $47

Fixed costs:

Fixed manufacturing overhead $790,000

The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.

The variable costing method incorporates all variable production costs (direct material, direct labor, and variable overhead).

Variable costing:

Unitary cost= 150 + 450 + 47= $647

Absorption costing:

Unitary fixed overhead= 790,000/11,000= $71.82

Unitary cost= 647 + 71.82= $718.82

Slow​ 'n Steady,​ Inc., has a stock price of ​, will pay a dividend next year of ​, and has expected dividend growth of per year. What is your estimate of Slow​ 'and Steady cost of equity​ capital

Answers

Answer:

Slow​ 'and Steady cost of equity​ capital is 11%.

Explanation:

Note: The question is not complete as the important data are committed. The full question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Slow n' steady Inc, has a stock price of $30, will pay a dividend next year of $3, and has expected dividend growth of 1% per year. what is your estimate of slow n steady's cost of equity capital?

The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:

The cost of equity can be calculated using the Gordon growth model (GGM) formula for calculating current stock price

The GGM has the assumption that there will be a stable dividend growth rate year after year forever.

Tje GGM formula is given as follows:

P = d1 / (r - g) ……………………………………… (1)

Where;

P = Current share price = $30

d1 = Next year dividend = $3

r = Required rate of return or cost of equity = ?

g = Expected dividend growth rate = 1%, or 0.01

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for r, we have:

30 = 3 / (r - 0.01)

r - 0.01 = 3 / 30

r - 0.01 = 0.10

r = 0.10 + 0.01

r = 0.11, or 11%

Therefore,  Slow​ 'and Steady cost of equity​ capital is 11%.

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs= $27,600,000

Unitary variable cost= $805

Unit selling price= $1,150

To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 27,600,000 / (1,150 - 805)

Break-even point in units= 80,000 units

Desired income= $5,175,000

Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= (27,600,000 + 5,175,000) / 345

Break-even point in units= 95,000 units

For 2020, what amount of Equity Income will Emily record? How to get the answer of 1,125,000

Answers

Answer:

$ 1,125,000

Explanation:

Calculation for the amount of Equity Income that Emily will record

First step is to find the Net equity income using this formula

Net equity income= Net income +Dividends

Let plug in the formula

Net equity income=$250,000+$25,000

Net equity income=$225,000

Second step is to find the balance of investment using this formula

Balance of investment= (Common stock + Net equity income )- Amortization of unrecorded patent

Let plug in the formula

Balance of investment =($1,000,000+$225,000 )-($600,000/6)

Balance of investment=$1,225,000-$100,000

Balance of investment = $ 1,125,000

Therefore the amount of Equity Income that Emily will record will be $ 1,125,000

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Globalization or specifically, Economic Globalization, is a term that (differs from Political and Cultural Globalization) describes the distribution of products, services, technology, information, and jobs across various countries, continents, and cultures.

The advantages or pros of economic globalization includes the following:

1. Economic Globalization is expected to result in free trade that enhances global economic growth; leads to more jobs, makes firms extra competitive, and reduces the prices of products generally.

2. It promotes technological advancement, whereby developed countries utilizes and transfer capital-intensive production and technological advancement to developing countries, through the transfer of labor-intensive production processes.

3. It enhances the quality of life: this is shown when each country involves in a form of division of labor, production, and trade based on their strength and resources. This, in turn, leads to lesser production costs, increases productivity, and results in a better quality of life.

The disadvantages or cons of economic globalization includes the following:

1. Labor markets are exploited in terms of wages and salaries: this occurs whereby workers in developing regions are paid lesser compared to normal or international standards, thus the gap between the upper class and the lower class keeps increasing.

2. Tax Evasion: this occurs when some multinational firms find ways to exploit the tax and operation system of other countries, mostly the less developed and developing countries, so as to avoid paying the necessary taxes.

3. There is also a form of labor exploitation in terms of working conditions, as convicts and child laborers are sometimes encouraged to work in undesirable situations considered to be inhumane where safety standards are overlooked for the purpose of producing cheaper goods.

Answer: Add social value and entertainment to consumers' lives

Explanation:

In this age of technology, companies have found that being able to offer their customers relevant products can be greatly helped by gathering information about them and offering it to them directly on their phones. A great way to do so is through the use of mobile apps.

With mobile apps a company can track behavior on the device as well as track mobile activity. They could even use the GPS capabilities of the phone through the app to offer relevant location based content.

However, as much as companies would like their customers to have enjoyable lives, this is not an aim with mobile apps. The apps are there to boost the companies sales not to add social value and entertainment to consumers' lives unless of course, that is the company's main business.

Nichols, Inc. has 1,000 shares of 4%, $100 par value, cumulative preferred stock and 75,000 shares of $1 par value common stock outstanding at December 31 of the current year and has declared a dividend for the year. What is the annual dividend that will be paid to the preferred stockholders

Answers

Answer: $20,000

Explanation:

The dividends due to preferred stock are fixed and quoted on the preference shares.

The above shares are to get 4% of their par value in dividends.

= (4% * 100) * 5,000 shares

= $20,000

A yearly dividend is a the price paid per share of funds by the firm to its stockholders.

The yearly dividend that will be paid to the elected stockholders will be $20,000

It can be determined by using the formula:

[tex]= \text{Monthly Shares} \times \text{Number of payments per year}[/tex]

The above shares are to get 4% of their par price in interests:

[tex]= (4\% \times 100) \times 5,000 \; \text{shares}[/tex]

= $20,000

Therefore, $20,000 will be paid to the stockholders.

Consider a basket of consumer goods that costs $90 in the United States. The same basket of goods costs CNY 105 in China.
Holding constant the cost of the basket in each country, compute the real exchange rates that would result from the two nominal exchange rates in the following table.
Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars) Cost of Basket in China (Yuan) Nominal Exchange Rate (Yuan per dollar) Real Exchange Rate (Baskets of Chinese goods per basket of U.S goods)
90 105 7.00
90 105 10.50

Answers

Answer:

The real exchange rates that would result from the two nominal exchange rates are:

For the first row in the table RER is 6.

For the second row in the table RER is 9.

Note: See the attached excel file for the table.

Explanation:

Note: The table in the question is merged together. It is therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached excel file for the sorted table.

The answer to the explanation to the answer is now provided as follows:

The real exchange rate (RER) between the the currencies of two counties can be described as the multiplication of the nominal exchange and the ratio of baskets of goods between these two countries.

RER can can therefore be calculated using the following formula:

RER = (e * P*) / P ................................. (1)

Where, from the question;

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan)

For the first row in the table:

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar = 7

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  = $90

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan) = 105

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

RER = (7 * 90) / 105

RER = 630 / 105

RER = 6

For the second row in the table:

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar = 10.50

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  = $90

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan) = 105

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

RER = (10.50 * 90) / 105

RER = 945 / 105

RER = 9

The real exchange rates that should lead from the two nominal exchange rates should be 6 and 9.

Calculation of the real exchange rate:

RER = (e * P*) / P ................................. (1)

Here,

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan)

So,

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar = 7

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  = $90

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan) = 105

Now

RER = (7 * 90) / 105

RER = 630 / 105

RER = 6

Now

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar = 10.50

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  = $90

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan) = 105

So,

RER = (10.50 * 90) / 105

RER = 945 / 105

RER = 9

after tax nominal interest rate = 20% x (1 - tax rate ) = 20% x 0.8 = 16%

b. The after-tax real interest rate in year 1 is ______________

after tax real interest rate = [(1 + after tax nominal interest rate) / (1 + inflation rate)] - 1

after tax nominal interest rate yer 1 = 10% x 0.8 = 8%

inflation rate = 4%

after tax real interest rate = [1.08 / 1.04] - 1 = 3.85%

c. The after-tax real interest rate in year 2 is ______________

The journal entry to reflect the bonus to Wang will include a credit to _______ in the amount of ______.

Answers

The journal entry to reflect the bonus to Wang will include a credit to Wang, Capital in the amount of $4,000

First step is to calculate S. Wang and T. Wu and  J. Li capital amount

Capital=$50,000+$50,000+$20,000

Capital=$120,000

Second step is to calculate their new capital

New capital=$120,000*.10

New capital=$12,000

Now to determine Wang bonus amount we have to divide the capital equally between S. Wang and T. Wu

Bonus=($20,000-$12,000)/2

Bonus=$8,000/2

Bonus=$4,000

Therefore journal entry to reflect the bonus to Wang will include a credit to Wang, Capital in the amount of $4,000
