Answer:
b) the initial value of the forward contract is $0
we must determine the present value of the dividends that the stock is expected to pay in order to determine the forward price:
present value of dividends = ($1 x e⁽⁻⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°¹⁶⁷⁾) + ($1 x e⁽⁻⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°⁴¹⁶⁷⁾) = $1.954
forward price = ($50 - $1.954) · e⁽⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°⁵⁾ = $50.0068 ≈ $50.01
c) again we first determine the present value of the dividends:
present value of dividends = ($1 x e⁽⁻⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°¹⁶⁷⁾) = $0.9867
forward price = ($48 - $0.9867) · e⁽⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°²⁵⁾ = $47.963 ≈ $47.96
short forward contract = -[$48 - $0.9867 - ($50.01 · e⁽⁻⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°²⁵⁾)] = $2.006 ≈ $2.01
a) in order to determine the arbitrage free forward price, the NPV of our forward price must be 0. It is basically the same answer than (b) only that you calculate it in a different order:
$50 = $1.954 + forward price/e⁽⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°⁵⁾
$48.046 = forward price/(1 + e⁽⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°⁵⁾
forward price = $48.046 · e⁽⁰°⁰⁸⁾ ⁽⁰°⁵⁾ = $50.006 ≈ $50.01
Companies often use features to differentiate themselves from competitors. However, a company must balance the features customers want with ________.
A) what the competition offers
B) the ability to manufacture the feature in a timely way
C) what customers will pay
D) the configurations that make a positive brand look stylish
E) the resources available for production
Answer:
C)what customers will pay
Explanation:
A new raw material is available that will decrease the variable costs per unit by 20% (or $2.80). However, to process the new raw material, fixed operating costs will increase by $90,000. Management feels that one-half of the decline in the variable costs per unit should be passed on to customers in the form of a sales price reduction. The marketing department expects that this sales price reduction will result in a 5% increase in the number of units sold.

In the market for used cars we have 10 sellers, willing to sell at the prices of $1000, $2000, $3000, $4000, $5000, $6000, $7000, $8000, $9000, $10000. What could the market price be in order to induce five sellers to offer their cars for sale?
Answer: $5001
Explanation:
It should be noted that sellers always seek to maximize profit when selling a product, therefore a seller will only be induced to sell only when offered a price that is above the price that they want to sell the car.
Therefore, we have to consider the price that is being offered by the seller as the minimum price. There are five sellers that wants to sell the car at prices of $1000, $2000, $3000, $4000, and $5000. Therefore, to sell the car a price of $5001 would induce the five sellers to offer their cars for sale.
Rodriguez Company pays $342,225 for real estate with land, land improvements, and a building. Land is appraised at $250,000; land improvements are appraised at $75,000; and a building is appraised at $175,000.
Required:
a. Allocate the total cost among the three assets.
b. Prepare the journal entry to record the purchase.

a. The cost of each of the assets will be proportional based on their individual costs.
Total individual costs = 250,000 + 75,000 + 175,000
= $500,000
Cost of land = 250,000/500,000 * 342,225 = $171,112.50
Cost of land improvements = 75,000/500,000 * 342,225 = $51,333.75
Cost of building = 175,000/500,000 * 342,225 = $119,778.75

The Carbon coal company has 2 mines, a surface mine ad a deep mine. it costs $200 per day to operate the surface mine and $250 to operate the deep mine. Each mine produces a medium grade and a medium-hard grade coal, but in different proportions. This surface mine produces 12 tons of medium grade and 6 tons of medium-hard grade coal per day, and the deep mine produces 4 tons of medium grade and 8 tons of medium-hard grade coal every day. The company has a contract to deliver at least 600 tons of medium grade and 480 tons of medium-hard grade coal within 60 days. How many days should each mine be operated so that the contract can be filled at minimum cost
Answer:
The company should operate the surface mine for 40 days and the deep mine for 30 days. Total costs = $15,500
Explanation:
we have to minimize the following equation: 200S + 250D
where:
S = surface mine
D = deep mine
the constraints are:
12S + 4D ≥ 600 (medium grade coal constraint)
6S + 8D ≥ 480 (medium hard coal constraint
S ≤ 60
D ≤ 60
S, D ≥ 0
S, D are integers
using solver, the optimal solution is 40S + 30D = $15,500

B) Continue from the previous problem. What is the market price of this stock in one year? What is the capital gains yield over the first year?
Im looking for help on part B, I have already completed part A but it would be helpful to check my answer. ($26.57/share)
Answer:
a)
Div₁ = $3
Div₂ = $5
Div₃ = $7.50
Div₄ = $10
Div₅ = $2.50
the terminal value at year 4 = $2.50 / 15% = $16.67
P₀ = $3/1.15 + $5/1.15² + $7.50/1.15³ + $26.67/1.15⁴ = $2.61 + $3.78 + $4.93 + $15.25 = $26.57
dividend yield over the first year = $3 / $26.57 = 11.29%
b)
P₁ = $5/1.15 + $7.50/1.15² + $26.67/1.15³ = $4.35 + $5.67 + $17.47 = $27.49
capital gains yield = ($27.49 - $26.57) / $26.57 = 3.46%

Suppose currently, there is free trade with no government intervention. Suppose now the government in Econland wants to intervene in this market and bring widget prices back to the pre-trade free market price of F. What could they do achieve this?A. The government cannot do anything to bring widget prices back to FB. Set a quota on imports of LNC. Set a quota on imports of 0D. Tax imports by KRE. Tax imports by $0
Answer:
Tax imports by KRE
Explanation:
When there is complete, unregulated free trade in the economy, the price of widgets in any local economy is the same as the world price.
In this case, i the government in Econland wants to bring back the price of widgets, from world price, to previous domestic price, all it has to do is to impose a tax on imports equal to the value of the difference between the world price and the previous price. This tax on imports is known in economics as a tariff, and it is the most commonly tool of protectionist economic policy.
For example, suppose that the world price of widgets, under free trade is $2 each, and the previous price was $4, so in order to raise the price for world price to previous price, all the government has to do is to impose a tariff of $2, like this, widgets in the domestic market will be $4 again.
If there is free trade without the intervention of the government, the way that the government can intervene would be to Tax imports by KRE.
What is free trade?
This is the type of trade in an economy where the government of the country would not intervene in the market.
In this market system, the government would not use tariffs on the exports or try to discriminate against imports in the country.

Suppose that the dollar-mark 6 months forward rate is $1.275/Mark. Suppose that the dollar-mark forward premium is 5%. Calculate the spot rate, $1=Mark_______ work to 4 decimal places.
Answer:
$1 = 0.8039 Mark
Explanation:
Forward Rate = Spot rate * (1 +rate*180/360)
1.275 = Spot rate * (1 + 0.05*180/360)
Spot rate = $1.2439/Mark
Now we are asked rate per dollar
$1 = (1/1.2439)Mark
$1 = 0.8039 Mark

Jeter Corporation had net income of $232,000 based on variable costing. Beginning and ending inventories were 8,000 units and 14,000 units, respectively. Assume the fixed overhead per unit was $6 for both the beginning and ending inventory. What is net income under absorption costing?a. $316,000b. $268,000c. $304,000d. $364,000e. $232,000
Answer:
d. $364,000
Explanation:
Net income under absorption costing is computed as;
= Net income under variable costing + [(Closing inventory - Opening inventory) × Fixed overhead per unit.
Given that;
Net income under variable costing = $232,000
Closing inventory = 14,000 units
Opening inventory = 8,000 units
Fixed overhead per unit = $6
Therefore,
Net income under absorption costing = $232,000 + [(14,000 + 8,000) × $6 ]
= $232,000 + $132,000
= $364,000
Net income under absorption costing is $364,000
Firm A has increased its EPS (Earnings per share) by increasing the weighting of debt in its capital structure, compared to competitor Firm B, which finances mainly through increased stock offerings. Firm A's EPS, relative to competitor firm B has improved because:________. A. Its value as a firm is greater B. Its number of shares outstanding is lower C. Its number of shares outstanding are lower, and its earnings after tax is higher D. Its net income is higher
Answer:
B. Its number of shares outstanding is lower
Explanation:
Earnings per share (EPS) = (net income - preferred dividends) / weighted average shares outstanding
there are two ways in which a company's EPS can be higher:
increase the numerator: increase net income, which is unlikely due to higher interest expensedecrease the denominator: firm A has fewer stocks outstanding. This is more likely to occur.On June 1, 2018, Marigold Company and Swifty Company merged to form Nash Inc. A total of 769,000 shares were issued to complete the merger. The new corporation reports on a calendar-year basis. On April 1, 2020, the company issued an additional 599,000 shares of stock for cash. All 1,368,000 shares were outstanding on December 31, 2020. Nash Inc. also issued $600,000 of 20-year, 8% convertible bonds at par on July 1, 2020. Each $1,000 bond converts to 36 shares of common at any interest date. None of the bonds have been converted to date. Nash Inc. is preparing its annual report for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020. The annual report will show earnings per share figures based upon a reported after-tax net income of $1,688,000. (The tax rate is 20%.)
Determine the following for 2020:
a. Basic earnings per share.
b. Diluted earnings per share.
c. The earnings figures to be used for calculating:
d. Basic earnings per share.
e. Diluted earnings per share.
Answer:
a. Basic earnings per share.
weighted average outstanding:
January 1 = 769,000 stocks
April 1 = 599,000 x 9/12 = 449,250 stocks
total weighted average outstanding stocks = 1,218,250 stocks
basic earnings per share = $1,688,000 / 1,218,250 = $1.3856 ≈ $1.39
b. Diluted earnings per share.
diluted shares = ($600,000 / $1,000) x 36 stocks x 1/2 = 10,800
diluted earnings per share = $1,707,200 / (1,218,250 + 10,800) = $1,707,200 / 1,229,050 = $1.389 ≈ $1.39
c. The earnings figures to be used for calculating:
Basic earnings per share
= net income = $1,688,000
Diluted earnings per share
= net income + interests saved - taxes on interests saved = $1,688,000 + $24,000 - $4,800 = $1,707,200
Sunland Taxi Service uses the units-of-activity method in computing depreciation on its taxicabs. Each cab is expected to be driven 145,000 miles. Taxi 10 cost $29,500 and is expected to have a salvage value of $500. Taxi 10 was driven 32,000 miles in 2021 and 30,100 miles in 2022.
Answer:
see below
Explanation:
Under the unit of depreciation method, depreciation expense is per unit used.
The calculation of depreciation expense per unit is as per the formula.
DE per unit (Asset Cost − Salvage Value)/ Estimated Production Output
For Tax 10:
=($29,500- $500 ) /145,000 miles
= $29,000/145,000
=$0.2
The depreciation expense is $0.2 per mile.
Depreciation for 2021 will be depreciation per mile multiplied by miles driven.
=32,000 x $0.2
=$6,400
Depreciation for 2022
=30100 x $0.2
=$6,020
A project has an initial cost of $10,600 and produces cash inflows of $3,700,$4,900,and $2,500 for Years 1 to 3,respectively.What is the discounted payback period if the required rate of return is 7.5 percent?
A) 2.65 years
B) 2.78 years
C) 2.94 years
D) 2.88 years
E) Never
Answer:
The project will never pay the initial investment.
Explanation:
The payback period is the time required to cover the initial investment.
We need to use the following formula on each cash flow:
PV= Cf/(1+i)^n
PV1= 3,700/1.075= 3,441.86
PV2= 4,900/1.075^2= 4,240.13
PV3= 2,500/1.075^3= 2,012.40
Now, the payback period:
Year 1= 3,441.86 - 10,600= -7,158.14
Year 2= 4,240.13 - 7,158.14= -2,918
Year 3= 2,010.4 - 2,918= -907.6
The project will never pay the initial investment.

In year 26 (quarters 101-104), the energy use for each of the quarters beginning with winter is (round your response to one decimal place):_______
Answer:
90.3 ; 157.4 ; 176.9 ; 79.9
Explanation:
Given that:
Estimated demand trend line (in millions of kilowatt hour) for North Dakota Electricity company is :
D = 80.0 + 0.45Q,
Q = quarter number
Quarter Factor (Index)
Winter 0.72
Spring 1.25
Summer 1.40
Fall 0.63
In year 26 (quarters 101-104):
Energy use (E) for each quarter = (Demand * quarter factor)
Winter ; Q = 101
E = [80.0 + 0.45(101)] * 0.72 = 90.3
E = [80.0 + 0.45(102)] * 1.25 = 157.4
E = [80.0 + 0.45(103)] * 1.40 = 176.9
E = [80.0 + 0.45(104)] * 0.63 = 79.9

Ivanhoe, Inc. estimates the cost of its physical inventory at March 31 for use in an interim financial statement. The rate of markup on cost is 20%. The following account balances are available: Inventory, March 1 $540000 Purchases 420000 Purchase returns 10000 Sales during March 720000 The estimate of the cost of inventory at March 31 would be
Answer:
$350,000
Explanation:
Cost of goods sold = $720,000 / 1.20
Cost of goods sold = $600,000
Estimated cost of inventory = Inventory, March 1 + (Purchases - Purchases Return) - Cost of goods sold
Estimated cost of inventory = $540,000 + ($420,000 - $10,000) - $600,000
Estimated cost of inventory = $540,000 + $410,000 - $600,000
Estimated cost of inventory = $350,000
