Answer:
PI for the first project = 1 + ($5,673.93 / 87,000) = 1.065
PI for the second project = 1 + ($5,561.23 / $55,000) = 1.101
b. the second project should be chosen because the PI is higher
NPV for 1 = $5,673.93
NPV for 2 = $5,561.23
Explanation:
profitability index = 1 + (NPV / Initial investment)
Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator
for the first project
Cash flow in year 0 = –$87,000
Cash flow in year 1 = 36,900
Cash flow in year 2 = 47,000
Cash flow in year 3 = 27,000
I = 10%
NPV = $5,673.93
for the second project
Cash flow in year 0 = –$55,000
Cash flow in year 1 = 11,700
Cash flow in year 2 = 34,500
Cash flow in year 3 = 28,500
I = 10%
NPV = $5,561.23
PI for the first project = 1 + ($5,673.93 / 87,000) = 1.065
PI for the second project = 1 + ($5,561.23 / $55,000) = 1.101
b. the second project should be chosen because the PI is higher

The following data were taken from the balance sheet of Nilo Company at the end of two recent fiscal years: Current Year Previous Year Current assets: Cash $655,500 $546,000 Marketable securities 759,000 614,300 Accounts and notes receivable (net) 310,500 204,700 Inventories 1,039,500 674,100 Prepaid expenses 535,500 430,900 Total current assets $3,300,000 $2,470,000 Current liabilities: Accounts and notes payable (short-term) $435,000 $455,000 Accrued liabilities 315,000 195,000 Total current liabilities $750,000 $650,000 a. Determine for each year (1) the working capital, (2) the current ratio, and (3) the quick ratio. Round ratios to one decimal place.
Answer:
1. Previous Year = $1,820,000, Current Year = $2,550,000
2. Previous Year = 3.80 times , Current Year = 4.40 times
3. Previous Year = 2.70 times, Current Year = 3.00 times
Explanation:
working capital = current assets - current liabilities
working capital (Previous Year) = $2,470,000 - $650,000
= $1,820,000
working capital (Previous Year) = $3,300,000 - $750,000
= $2,550,000
Current ratio = current assets ÷ current liabilities
working capital (Previous Year) = $2,470,000 ÷ $650,000
= 3.80 times
working capital (Previous Year) = $3,300,000 ÷ $750,000
= 4.40 times
Quick ratio = (current assets - inventory) ÷ current liabilities
working capital (Previous Year) = ($2,470,000 - 674,100) ÷ $650,000
= 2.70 times
working capital (Previous Year) = ($3,300,000 - 1,039,500) ÷ $750,000
= 3.00 times
Suppose that you have an old car that is a real gas guzzler. It is 10 years old and could be sold to a local dealer for $ cash. The annual maintenance costs will average $ per year into the foreseeable future, and the car averages only miles per gallon. Gasoline costs $ per gallon, and you drive miles per year. You now have an opportunity to replace the old car with a better one that costs $. If you buy it, you will pay cash. Because of a 2-year warranty, the maintenance costs are expected to be negligible. This car averages miles per gallon. Should you keep the old car or replace it? Utilize a 2-year comparison period and assume that the new car can be sold for $ at the end of year 2. Assume that the salvage value of the old car at the end of year 2 will be $0. Ignore the effect of income taxes and let your MARR be %.
Answer:
you should replace the old car with a newer and more efficient one
Explanation:
all the numbers are missing, so I looked them up:
current sale value of old car $400
maintenance costs per year $800
gasoline expense per year = $3.50 x 1/10 x 15,000 = $5,250
resale value in 2 years = $0
cost of replacing old car = $8,000
maintenance costs per year $0
gasoline expense per year = $3.50 x 1/30 x 15,000 = $1,750
resale value in 2 years = $5,000
MARR = 15%
if you keep the old car, your net cash flows will be:
Year 1 = -$6,050
Year 2 = -$6,050
if you change your car, your net cash flows will be:
Year 0 = -$8,000 + $400 = -$7,600
Year 1 = -$1,750
Year 2 = $3,250
keeping the old car results in a NPV = -$6,050/1.15 - $6,050/1.15² = -$5,260.87 - $4,574.67 = -$9,835.54
changing for a new car results in a NPV = -$7,600 -$1,750/1.15 + $3,250/1.15² = -$7,600 -$1,521.74 + $2,457.47 = -$6,664.27
since both options result in negative cash flows, we must select the option that results in a smaller loss

Avia Company sells a product for $150 per unit. Variable costs are $110 per unit, and fixed costs are $1500 per month. The company expects to sell 660 units in September. The unit contribution margin is ________.
Answer:
"$40 per unit" is the right solution.
Explanation:
Given:
Selling price per unit,
= $150
Variable cost per unit,
= $110
Fixed costs per month,
= $1500
The unit contribution margin will be:
= [tex]Selling \ price - Variable \ cost[/tex]
= [tex]150-110[/tex]
= [tex]40[/tex] ($) per unit

g Builtrite has calculated the average cash flow to be $16,000 with a standard deviation of $4000. What is the probability of a cash flow being greater than $11,000? (Assume a normal distribution.)
Answer:
89.44%
Explanation:
As we know that:
Z = (Cash Flow - Mean) / Standard Deviation
Here
Cash flow is the observed value which is the lower limit here and is $11,000
Mean is the average value of the sample and is $16,000
Standard Deviation is $4,000
By putting values, we have:
Z = ($11,000 - $16,000) / $4,000
= -1.25
The Z value lower than -1.25 is 0.1056 or 10.56%
This means that the probability of cash flow lower than $11,000 is 10.56% and the probability of cash flow greater than $11,000 will be
Probability of cash flow = (1- 0.1056) = 0.8944 which is 89.44%

The risk-free rate is 6% and the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 13%. a. Calculate the required rate of return on a security with a beta of 1.25.
Answer:
The required rate of return is r = 0.1475 or 14.75%
Explanation:
The required rate of return is the minimum return that investors demand/expect on a stock based on the systematic risk of the stock as given by the beta. The expected or required rate of return on a stock can be calculated using the CAPM equation.
The equation is,
r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)
Where,
rRF is the risk free raterM is the return on marketr = 0.06 + 1.25 * (0.13 - 0.06)
r = 0.1475 or 14.75%

Horton Corporation is preparing a bank reconciliation and has identified the following potential reconciling items. Indicate how each would be reported on a bank reconciliation.a. Deposit in transit $5,500. b. Bank service charges $25. c. Interest credited to Horton’s account $31. d. Outstanding checks $7,422. e. NSF check returned $377.
Answer:
a. Deposit in transit $5,500.
This is added to the balance on the bank statement because it has already been added to the books of the company but it is yet to be processed by the bank.
b. Bank service charges $25.
Deducted from the book balance because the bank has already deducted this charge from the company's bank account so the company needs to do the same in its books.
c. Interest credited to Horton’s account $31.
Added to the book balance because this is interest earned on the account from the bank. The bank has therefore already added it to the company's bank account and so the company needs to add it to their books.
d. Outstanding checks $7,422.
Deducted from the balance on the bank statement because the company issued a check from their account but it has not be debited from the bank account yet but has been recorded in the books.
e. NSF check returned $377.
Deducted from the book balance.

Assuming you are a rational investor, the amount you should be willing to pay for a 20-year ordinary annuity that makes payments of $4,000 per year and you require a 6% rate of return per year is closest to:
Answer:
PV= $45,879.68
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cash flow= $4,000 annually
n= 20
i= 6% compunded annually
The maximum that an investor should pay is the present value (PV).
First, we need to calculate the future value using the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual cash flow
FV= {4,000*[(1.06^20) - 1]} / 0.06
FV= $147,142.36
Now, we can calculate the present value, we need to use the following formula:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 147,142.36/(1.06^20)
PV= $45,879.68
To avoid having a voidable contract, all 'time is of the essence' deadlines set by the contract must be met:________
a. within 24 hours of the stated deadline.
b. within 48 hours of the stated deadline.
Answer:
None of the choices are needed
Explanation:
As we know that
The contract is an agreement between two parties who are eligible and enforceable by law
The voidable contract is an agreement that is not unenforceable by law due to various reasons like - party failure to complete the contract on time, fraud, misrepresentation, etc
So in the case of the voidable contract, no grace period is applicable neither 24 hours nor 48 hours as if there is a deadline so the same should be considered
Identify which of the factors below are better short-range predictors and which are better long-range predictors of movements in foreign exchange rates.a. Relative monetary growthb. Relative inflation ratesc. Nominal interest rate differentialsd. Psychological effectse. Investor expectationsf. Bandwagon effects
Answer:
Short range predictors:
c. Nominal interest rate differential
d. Psychological effects
e. Investor expectations
f. Bandwagon effect
Long range predictors:
a. Relative monetary growth
b. Relative inflation rates
Explanation:
Nominal rate, the real rate, and inflation. long term predictors of an economic theory in which a relationship between inflation, nominal interest rate and real interest rate is identified. It defines that real interest rate is equal to inflation minus nominal interest rate.
Bandwagon effect is a short range predictor because it is effect of uptake when people follow others. They take decisions what other do and its their belief that other people have taken the right decision so we too. This is just a short term hop based on beliefs regardless of any underlying evidence.

Too Young, Inc., has a bond outstanding with a coupon rate of 7 percent and semiannual payments. The bond currently sells for $951 and matures in 23 years. The par value is $1,000. What is the company's pretax cost of debt?
Answer:
The company's pretax cost of debt is 7.45 %.
Explanation:
When it comes to bonds, the cost of debt is the required return on the bond known as the Yield to Maturity (YTM) of the bond.
The Yield to Maturity (YTM) of the bond can be determined as follows :
N = 23 × 2 = 46
PV = $951
Pmt = ($1,000 × 7 %) ÷ 2 = - $35
P/YR = 2
FV = - $1,000
YTM = ?
Using a Financial Calculator, the Yield to Maturity (YTM) of the bond is 7.4484 or 7.45 %
Therefore,
The company's pretax cost of debt is 7.45 %.
In the basic EOQ model, an annual demand of 40 units, an ordering cost of $5, and a holding cost of $1 per unit per year will result in an EOQ of:
Answer:
20
Explanation:
The formula for Economic order quantity ( EOQ ) = √2DS/H,
Where,
D annual demand = 40 units
S Ordering cost = $5
H Holding cost = $1
Hence ,
EOQ = √ 2 × 40 units × $5 / 1$
= √ $400 / $1
= 20
Quantitative Problem 1: Assume today is December 31, 2017. Barrington Industries expects that its 2018 after-tax operating income [EBIT(1 – T)] will be $450 million and its 2018 depreciation expense will be $65 million. Barrington's 2018 gross capital expenditures are expected to be $110 million and the change in its net operating working capital for 2017 will be $30 million. The firm's free cash flow is expected to grow at a constant rate of 4.5% annually. Assume that its free cash flow occurs at the end of each year. The firm's weighted average cost of capital is 9%; the market value of the company's debt is $3 billion; and the company has 180 million shares of common stock outstanding. The firm has no preferred stock on its balance sheet and has no plans to use it for future capital budgeting projects. Using the free cash flow valuation model, what should be the company's stock price today (December 31, 2017)? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent. $ per share
Answer:
$29.630
Explanation:
For computation of stock price first we need to follow some steps which is shown below:-
Free cash flow = EBIT (1 - T) + Depreciation - Capital expenditure - Working capital
= $450 million + $65 million - $110 million - $30 million
= $375 million
Value of firm = Free cash flow ÷ (WACC - Growth)
= $375 million ÷ (9% - 4.5%)
= $375 million ÷ 0.045
= $8,333.33 million
Value of equity = Value of firm - Value of debt
= $8,333.33 million - $3,000 million
= $5,333.33 million
Stock price = Value of equity ÷ Outstanding shares
= $5,333.33 million ÷ 180 million
= $29.630
Buster Evans is considering investing $20,000 in a project with the following annual cash revenues and expenses: Cash Cash Revenues Expenses Year 1 $ 8,000 $ 8,000 Year 2 $12,000 $ 8,000 Year 3 $15,000 $ 9,000 Year 4 $20,000 $10,000 Year 5 $20,000 $10,000 Depreciation will be $4,000 per year. What is the accounting rate of return on the investment
Answer:
Accounting rate of return= 20%
Explanation:
The accounting rate of return is the average annual income expressed as a percentage of the average investment.
The simple rate of return can be calculated using the two formula below:
Accounting rate of return
= Annual operating income/Average investment × 100
Average investment = (Initial cost + scrap value)/2
Average profit = Total profit over investment period / Number of years
Total revenue = 8000+12000+ 15000 + 20,000+ 20,000 = 75000
Total expenses= 8000 + 8000 + 9000 +10,000 + 10,000 = 45000
Cash profit = 75,000 - 45,000 = 30,000
Depreciation = 4000× 5 = 20,000
Accounting profit = Cash profit - Depreciation = 30,000- 20,000 = 10,000
Average profit = 10,000/5 = 2,000
Accounting rate of return = 2,000/20000× 100 = 20%
Accounting rate of return= 20%
In material requirement planning calculations, gross requirements for finished products are taken from ________________________.
Answer:
Forecasted sales
Explanation:
In the production process amount of inventory purchased for producing goods must be carefully calculated.
This avoids waste incurred from buying excess of materials needed for operation. Also when there is shortage of materials time and resources are wasted getting more materials.
So when calculating material requirements for finished products it is important that we consider sales forecasts.
Materials purchased based on this will just adequately meet the demand for product.
This reduce cost of storage of excess materials.
Company X, which is a chemical manufacturer, uses crude oil and buys it in the spot market on a monthly schedule. A crude oil swap is quoted by the dealer at $25. Which of the following statements is correct?a. The company should sell the swap to hedgeb. In a month when the spot price of oil is above $25, the company will pay the difference to the counter partyc. In a month when the spot price is below $25, the company will pay the difference to the counter party
Answer:
c. In a month when the spot price is below $25, the company will pay the difference to the counter party
Explanation:
Since Company X uses crude oil, the company buys the swap to hedge in the swap market, so option A is not appropriate because it buys the swap, which pays the counterparty when the spot price falls below $ 25. so correct option is c. In a month when the spot price is below $25, the company will pay the difference to the counter partyA company's Office Supplies account shows a beginning balance of $720 and an ending balance of $640. If office supplies expense for the year is $3,700, what amount of office supplies was purchased during the period
Answer:
Purchases= $3,620
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beginning inventory= $720
Ending inventory= $640
Purchase= ?
Used in the period= $3,700
To calculate the purchases, we need to use the following formula:
Purchases= used in the period + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Purchases= 3,700 + 640 - 720
Purchases= $3,620

Half of the bids are for $1,500 so weight of $1,500 is 0.5.
Half of the bids are for $1,900 so weight of $1,900 is 0.5.
Expected Winning bid = (1,500 * 0.5) + ( 1,900 * 0.5)
= 750 + 950
= $1,700

Kelley Company reports $1,250,000 of net income for 2017 and declares $175,000 of cash dividends on its preferred stock for 2017. At the end of 2017, the company had 380,000 weighted-average shares of common stock. 1. What amount of net income is available to common stockholders for 2017
Answer:
Net income available to common stockholders is $1,075,000
Explanation:
Net Income $1,250,000
To Preferred Shareholders $175,000
Net income available to $1,075,000
common stockholders
Basic earnings per share = Net income available to common stockholders / weighted average shares of common stock
Basic earnings per share = $1,075,000 / 380,000
Basic earnings per share = $2.8290 per share.
Cole Co. began constructing a building for its own use in January 20X3. During 20X3, Cole incurred interest of $50,000 on specific construction debt, and $20,000 on other borrowings. Interest computed on the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures for the building during 20X3 was $40,000. What amount of interest cost should Cole capitalize
Answer: $40,000
Explanation:
When capitalizing Interest for a PPE, accounting procedure is that one looks at the actual interests incurred vs the interest computed on the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures for the PPE and then pick the lower of the two for capitalization.
The actual interest incurred is;
= 50,000 + 20,000
= $70,000
The Interest computed on the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures for the building during 20X3 = $40,000. This is the lower one and so will be the amount capitalized.
The expected before-tax IRR on a potential real estate investment is 14 percent. The expected after-tax IRR is 10.5 percent. What is the effective tax rate on this investment?
Answer:
25%
Explanation:
The expected before-tax IRR on a potential real estate investment is 14%
The expected after-tax IRR is 10.15%
Therefore, the effective tax rate on this investment can be calculated as follows
Effective tax rate= 1-(after-tax IRR/before-tax IRR)
Effective tax rate= 1-(10.15/14)
= 1-0.75
= 0.25×100
= 25%
Hence the effective tax rate is 25%
