Eakins Inc.'s common stock currently sells for $15.00 per share, the company expects to earn $2.75 per share during the current year, its expected payout ratio is 70%, and its expected constant growth rate is 6.00%. New stock can be sold to the public at the current price, but a flotation cost of 8% would be incurred. By how much would the cost of new stock exceed the cost of retained earnings
Answer:
1.12%
Explanation:
By how much would the cost of new stock exceed the cost of retained earnings = Cost of new equity - Cost of retained earnings
Cost of retained earnings = ((2.75 * 70%) / 15) + 6.00%
Cost of retained earnings = ((2.75 * 0.7) / 15) + 0.06
Cost of retained earnings = 0.1283 + 0.06
Cost of retained earnings =0.1883
Cost of retained earnings = 18.83%
Cost of new equity= ((2.75 * 70%) / (15 * (1 - 8%) ) + 6.00%
Cost of new equity= 19.95%
Hence, Cost of new equity - Cost of retained earnings
= 19.95% - 18.83%
= 1.12%

Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales in Units
April 54,000
May 75,000
June 94,000
July 82,000
Desired ending inventory= 20% of the following month’s sales.
The inventory at the end of March was 10,800 units.
To calculate the production for each month, we need to use the following formula:
Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
April:
Sales= 54,000
Ending inventory= 75,000*0.2= 15,000
Beginning inventory= (10,800)
Total= 58,200 units
May:
Sales= 75,000
Ending inventory= 94,000*0.2= 18,800
Beginning inventory= (15,000)
Total= 78,800 units
June:
Sales= 94,000
Ending inventory= 82,000*0.2= 16,400
Beginning inventory= (18,800)
Total= 91,600 units
Total for the quarter= 228,600 units
In the above case, Sales in Units in the month of April is 54,000, in the month of May is 75,000, in the month of June is 94,000 and in the month of July is 82,000.
What is sales?A sale is defined as a transaction between the parties in which the purchaser acquires goods, services, or assets in return for money. In some cases, other assets are pay off to a seller.
Computation of production:
According to the available information,
Desirable closing inventory= 20% of the following month’s sales.
The inventory at the end of March was 10,800 units.
To calculate the production in each month, the formula is:
[tex]\text{Production= Sales + Desired Ending Inventory - Beginning Inventory}[/tex]
Production in the month of April:
According to the given information,
Sales= 54,000
Ending inventory:
[tex]=75,000\times \dfrac{20}{100}\\= 15,000[/tex]
Beginning inventory= 10,800
Now, apply the given values in the above formula:
[tex]\text{Production= Sales + Desired Ending Inventory - Beginning Inventory}\\\\\text{Production} =54,000+15,000-10,800\\\\\text{Production}=58,200\text{Units}[/tex]
Production in the month of May:
Sales= 75,000
Ending inventory:
[tex]=94,000\times \frac{20}{100}\\\\= 18,800[/tex]
Beginning inventory= 15,000
Now, apply the given values in the above formula:
[tex]\text{Production= Sales + Desired Ending Inventory - Beginning Inventory}\\\\\text{Production} =75,000+18,800-15,000\\\\\text{Production}=78,800\text{Units}[/tex]
Production in the month of June:
Sales= 94,000
Ending inventory:
[tex]872,000\times\dfrac{20}{100}= 16,400[/tex]
Beginning inventory= 18,800
Now, apply the given values in the above formula:
[tex]\text{Production= Sales + Desired Ending Inventory - Beginning Inventory}\\\\\text{Production} =94,000+16,400-18,800\\\\\text{Production}=91,600\text{Units}[/tex]
Therefore, the Total for the quarter :
[tex]=\text{May's Production + June's Production+Juily's Production}\\\\=58,200+78,800+91,600 \text{Units}\\= 228,600 \text{Units}[/tex]

Barry Cuda is considering the purchase of the following Builtrite bond: $1000 par, 3 1/4% coupon rate, 10 year maturity that is currently selling for $940. If Barry purchases this bond, what would his approximate yield to maturity be?
Answer:
Yield to Maturity = 3.97%
Explanation:
The yield to maturity is the discount rate that equates the price of the bond to the present value of its future cash flow receivable from it.
The yield on the bond can be determined as follows using the formula below:
YM = C + F-P/n) ÷ 1/2 (F+P)
YM-Yield to maturity-
C- annual coupon
F- Face Value
P- Current Price
DATA
Coupon = coupon rate × Nominal value = 1,000 × 3 1/4%= 32.5
Face Value = 1000
YM-?, C- 32.5, Face Value - 1,000, P-940
YM = (32.5+ (1000-940)/10) ÷ ( 1/2× (1000 + 940) )
YM = 0.0397 × 100 = 3.97%
Yield to Maturity = 3.97%

Sam has contracted with Dave to purchase Dave's racing bike, with payment and delivery of the bicycle to be made 10 days after the contract was made. Three days later Sam hears that Dave is going to sell the bike to Gene in three days at a higher price. If Sam really wants the bike, what should he do? Multiple Choice Immediately seek injunctive relief. Immediately sue for specific performance. Immediately sue for compensatory damages. Immediately sue for consequential damages.
Answer: Immediately seek injunctive relief.
Explanation:
An injunctive relief is an order by the court stopping an action from taking place. From the question, we are told that Sam has contracted with Dave to buy Dave's racing bike, with payment and delivery of the bicycle to be made 10 days after the contract was made.
We are further told that three days later Sam hears that Dave is going to sell the bike to Gene in three days at a higher price. If Sam really wants the bike, he should seek injunctive relief. By doing so, the court will stop Dave from selling the bike to Gene.
After the initial offering, the bonds are trading in the secondary market at 105, while the stock is trading at $10. Which statements are TRUE?
Answer:
B I and IV
Explanation:
Each bond could be transformed into common stock at $10.50 par value. So the bond should be equivalent to the 95 shares that comes from
= $1,000 ÷ $10.50 per share
= 95 shares
Currently price of the bond is $1,050
Now each share price is
= $1,050 ÷ 95 shares
= $11.05
As the common stock is traded at $10 that represents the stock is less than parity and therefore there is no means to transform the shares
hence, B option is correct
Double West Suppliers (DWS) reported sales for the year of $400,000, all on credit. The average gross profit percentage was 35 percent on sales. Account balances follow:
Beginning Ending
Accounts receivable (net) $ 51,000 $ 61,000
Inventory 67,000 46,000
Required:
1. Compute the following turnover ratios. (Round your answers to 1 decimal place.)
2. By dividing 365 by your ratios from requirement 1, calculate the average days to collect receivables and the average days to sell inventory. (Use 365 days in a year. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round turnover ratio calculation and final answers to 1 decimal place.)
Answer:
1. Accounts Receivables Turnover Ratio = Net Credit Sales/Average Accounts Receivables = 400,000 / (51000 + 61000)/2
= 400,000/56,000
= 7.1 times
Inventory Turnover Ratio = Cost of Goods Sold/Average Inventory = (Sales-Gross Profit)/Average Inventory = (400,000 - 35% * 400,000) / (67000 + 46000)/2
=400,000 - 140,000 / 56,500
= 260,000 / 56,500
= 4.6 times
2. Average Days to Collect Receivables = 365/7.1 = 51.40 or 52 days
Average Days to Collect Inventory = 365/4.6 = 79.34 days

Salah’s net income for the year ended December 31, Year 2 was $191,000. Information from Salah’s comparative balance sheets is given below. Compute the cash paid for dividends during Year 2. At December 31 Year 2 Year 1 Common Stock, $5 par value $ 506,000 $ 455,400 Paid-in capital in excess of par 954,000 858,400 Retained earnings 694,000 587,400
Answer:
Cash Dividends - Year 2 = $84400
Explanation:
The net income of the business is usually appropriated or used for two purposes at the end of the year. It is either used to pay dividends or is retained in the business and is added to the retained earnings or both.
Thus, to calculate the dividends paid by the business in a particular year, we can calculate the change in retained earnings and deduct it from the net income.
Change in retained earnings = Ending balance of retained earnings - Beginning balance of retained earnings
Change in retained earnings = 694000 - 587400
Change in retained earnings = $106600
Thus, out of the net income of $191000, $106600 were transferred to retained earnings. So, the amount of dividends paid for the year is,
Cash Dividends - Year 2 = 191000 - 106600 = $84400

Computation:
Current price of stock = D1 / (Required return of return - Growth rate)
Current price of stock = 4.25 / (0.1 - 0.0675)
Current price of stock = 4.25 / 0.0325
Current price of stock = $130.76(Approx).

Therefore , the correct option is 'B'.
Torrid Romance Publishers has total receivables of $3,000, which represents 20 days’ sales. Total assets are $75,000. The firm’s operating profit margin is 5%. Find the firm's ROA and asset turnover ratio.
Answer:
Assets turnover ratio= 0.73
ROA= 3.65%
Explanation:
Torrid romance publishers have a total receivables of $3,000, it represents a 20 days sales
The total assets is $75,000
The operating profit margin is 5%
= 5/100
= 0.05
The first step is to calculate the total sales
= $3,000×365/20
= $3,000×18.25
= $54,750
The asset turnover ratio can be calculated as follows
= Total sales/Total assets
= $54,750/$75,000
= 0.73
The ROA can be calculated as follows
= Assets turnover ratio×operating profit margin
= 0.73×0.05
= 0.0365×100
= 3.65%
Hence the assets turnover ratio and ROA is 0.73 and 3.65% respectively.
Richards Corporation uses the FIFO method of process costing. The following information is available for October in its Fabricating Department: Units: Beginning Inventory: 80,000 units, 60% complete as to materials and 20% complete as to conversion. Units started and completed: 250,000. Units completed and transferred out: 330,000. Ending Inventory: 30,000 units, 40% complete as to materials and 10% complete as to conversion. Costs: Costs in beginning Work in Process - Direct Materials: $37,200. Costs in beginning Work in Process - Conversion: $79,700. Costs incurred in October - Direct Materials: $646,800. Costs incurred in October - Conversion: $919,300. Calculate the cost per equivalent unit of conversion.
Answer:
$2.90 per equivalent unit of conversion
Explanation:
equivalent units of conversion (under FIFO) = [units in beginning inventory x ( 1 - previous conversion rate)] + units started and completed + (units in ending inventory x conversion rate) = [80,000 x (1 - 20%)] + 250,000 + (30,000 x 10%) = 64,000 + 250,000 + 3,000 = 317,000 units
cost per equivalent unit of conversion = total conversion costs / total equivalent units of conversion = $919,300 / 317,000 units = $2.90 per equivalent unit

b. demand is much higher at a baseball game than at a bar
c. baseball team owners have market power and can change a higher price when they are the only sellers of beer
d. the government forces the owners of baseball teams to change price.
e. the owner's baseball teams are not profit maximizing
Answer:
c. baseball team owners have market power and can change a higher price when they are the only sellers of beer
Explanation:
The situation at the major league baseball stadiums is that the owner of the team is the only one that sells the beer which means that they have the power to establish the price they want as people won't have another option to buy the beer in the stadium and they will try to get as much benefits as possible by setting a high price. According to this, the answer is that this is mainly because baseball team owners have market power and can change a higher price when they are the only sellers of beer .
The other options are not right because the owners of the teams pay the same price for the beer as everyone else, the demand is not higher at the baseball game, the government doesn't regulate the prices and the owners are trying to get as much profits as possible.

I NASDAQ
II AMEX (NYSE American)
III PHLX
IV BATS
a. I and III
b. I and IV
c. II and III
d. II and IV
Answer:
c. II and III
Explanation:
The New York Stock Exchange, NYSE Specialist (DMM) and Floor Trader system is the model for trading used by American Stock Exchange, AMEX (NYSE American) and Philadelphia Stock Exchange (PHLX).
However, National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations (NASDAQ) isn't modeled after the NYSE Specialist (DMM) and Floor Trader system, rather it is based on an all electronic market. Also, Better Alternative Trading System (BATS) started as an Electronic Communications Network (ECN) and as such is typically an all electronic market, which has transformed magnificently into an exchange according to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Hence, the American Stock Exchange, AMEX (NYSE American) and Philadelphia Stock Exchange (PHLX) uses a designated market maker (DMM) and Floor Trader system just like the New York Stock Exchange as their primary market maker.

Systemic barriers to change occur because of conflicts between departments, conflicts arising from power relationships, and refusal to share information.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
a. True
Explanation:
This statement is true, as systemic barriers can occur in an organization whose information flow does not occur efficiently and effectively, which causes information noises that prevent departments or teams from receiving organizational information.
This barrier can be eliminated by establishing a more direct and integrated communication with all organizational sectors, in the form of announcements, murals, e-mail, etc.
Another way to solve this problem is by analyzing the design of the organizational structure and making adjustments if it is found that there are flaws that prevent the flow of information to flow normally.
