A share trades at a price-to-book ratio of 0.7. An analyst who forecasts an ROCE of 12 percent each year in the future, and sets the required equity return at 10 percent, recommends a hold position. Does his recommendation agree with his forecast
Answer:
It does not agree.
Explanation:
The company expects to earn ROCE higher than the required rate of return. If this is to be achieved, the company must trade at a premium value in the share market. But as the current price-to-book ratio indicated that the market value is lower than the book value, this indicate that it is a Buy position as the share is undervalued. Therefore, it does not agree with the company's recommendation.

One year ago, you purchased 200 shares of Southern Foods common stock for $7900. Today, you sold your shares for $35.40 a share. During this past year, the stock paid $1.25 in dividends per share. What is your percent return on this investment
Answer:
Return on investment = -0.07215 or -7.215%
Explanation:
The rate of return or percent return on the investment can be calculated by deducting the initial cost of the investment from the current value of the investment and dividing it by the initial cost.
The return provided by the investment can be calculated by adding the returns provided in form of dividend and capital gains both. Thus, the return can be calculated as follows,
Total dividend = 1.25 * 200 = $250
Total selling value = 35.4 * 200 = $7080
Total value = 250 + 7080 = $7330
Return on investment = (7330 - 7900) / 7900 = -0.07215 or -7.215%
Indiana Co. began a construction project in 2018 with a contract price of $161 million to be received when the project is completed in 2020. During 2018, Indiana incurred $33 million of costs and estimates an additional $89 million of costs to complete the project. Indiana recognizes revenue over time and for this project recognizes revenue over time according to the percentage of the project that has been completed. Suppose that, in 2019, Indiana incurred additional costs of $66 million and estimated an additional $53 million in costs to complete the project. Indiana:________
a. Recognized $3.75 million loss on the project in 2022.
b. Recognized $5.25 million gross profit on the project in 2022.
c. Recognized $7.5 million gross profit on the project in 2022.
d. Recognized $1.5 million loss on the project in 2022.
Answer:
Recognized $3.75 million loss on the project in 2017.
Explanation:
Calculation for what Indiana Co. Recognized
First step is to calculate the Percentage of contract is completed in 2019
Percentage of contract is completed in 2019=($33 million+$66 million )/($33 million+$66 million + $53 million)
Percentage of contract is completed in 2019=$96 million/$149 million
Percentage of contract is completed in 2019=0.64429*100
Percentage of contract is completed in 2019=64.43%
Second step is to calculate The estimated gross profit
Estimated gross profit=$161 million-$149 million
Estimated gross profit=$12 million
Fourth step is to calculate gross profit to date
Gross profit to date=64.43%*161=103.7
gross profit to date=33 million / (33 + 89 million) * 161 million
gross profit to date=33 million/122 million* 161 million
gross profit to date=43.54
= $44.01 million in revenue in 2021 (4)
Now let calculate the amount recognized
3. You are considering investing in a startup company called Minions Technologies. After careful analysis, you determine that Minions will be able to generate $100,000 in cash flow at the end of each year for the first 5 years. Then, Minions will generate cash flow of $400,000 at the end of the 6th year, after which it will grow at 11% per year forever. Using a discount rate of 18%, what is the amount you would be willing to invest
Answer:
$2,810,467
Explanation:
we need to determine the enterprise value of Minions Technologies
first, the terminal value at year 5 = $400,000 / (18% - 11%) = $5,714,286
then we must find the present value of all future cash flows, including the terminal value
PV of 5 five cash flows = $100,000 x 3.127 (PV annuity factor, 18%, 5 periods) = $312,700
PV of terminal value = $5,714,286 / 1.18⁵ = $2,497,767
total enterprise value = $2,810,467
Derek will deposit $9,359.00 per year for 18.00 years into an account that earns 4.00%, The first deposit is made next year. He has $18,418.00 in his account today. How much will be in the account 49.00 years from today
Answer:
FV= $904,322.05
Explanation:
First, we will calculate the future value of the 18 deposits 19 years from now. Also the value of the $18,418 19 years from now.
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit= 9,359
n= 18
i= 0.04
FV= {9,359*[(1.04^18) - 1]} / 0.04
FV= $240,015.42
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 18,418*(1.04^19)
FV= $38,803.95
Total FV= 240,015.42 + 38,803.95= $278,819.37
Finally, the value of the account for the remaining 30 years:
FV= 278,819.37*(1.04^30)
FV= $904,322.05
Bill and Fred bake cakes and pies. Bill's opportunity cost of baking 1 pie is 5 cakes. Fred's opportunity cost of baking 1 pie is 7 cakes. If both parties are to benefit from trade then we can expect 1 pie to sell for: Group of answer choices
Explanation:
Bill will benefit from trade If 1P > 3C and Fred will benefit from trade If 1P < 5C
Thus, both will benefit from exchange if 3C < 1P < 5C.
That means that both of them would benefit from trading if 1 pie are to be traded for more than 3 cakes and less than 5 cakes like 1 pie is exchanged for 4 cakes. (As a result, since both sides are to profit from exchange, we should expect 1 pie to be exchanged for 4 cakes)
Explain how, if at all, each of the following transactions generates two entries (a credit and a debit) in the American balance of payments accounts, and describe how each entry would be classified in any of current, financial or capital account: (a) A U.S. resident buys shares of a Portuguese company paying via wire transfer from her Wells Fargo account to a Portuguese bank. (b) An Australian tourist rents a car in the U.S. and pays with her Australian credit card. (c) A U.S.-owned factory in Britain uses local earnings (i.e., in Britain) to buy additional equipment from a Britain firm.
Answer:
(a) A U.S. resident buys shares of a Portuguese company paying via wire transfer from her Wells Fargo account to a Portuguese bank.
The US financial account is debited since the stocks were paid by a transfer from Wells Fargo bank.
The credit happens when the Portuguese bank lends the to a Portuguese company that imports goods from America.
(b) An Australian tourist rents a car in the U.S. and pays with her Australian credit card.
The payment received from the Australian tourist represents a credit in the US financial account.
The debit occurs when an American bank receiving the money from the Australian bank will then lend the money to an American company that imports goods.
(c) A U.S.-owned factory in Britain uses local earnings (i.e., in Britain) to buy additional equipment from a Britain firm.
This transaction doesn't affect the US financial account since the money was originated and spent in Britain.

Explanation:
Pab Corporation decided to establish Sollon Company as a wholly owned subsidiary by transferring some of its existing assets and liabilities to the new entity. In exchange, Sollon issued Pab 30,000 shares of $6 par value common stock. The following information is provided on the assets and accounts payable transferred:
Cost Book Value Fair Value
Cash $44,000 $44,000 $44,000
Inventory 76,000 76,000 76,000
Land 79,000 79,000 109,000
Buildings 175,000 134,000 249,000
Equipment 90,000 76,000 121,000
Accounts Payable 63,000 63,000 63,000
Required:
Prepare the journal entry that Pab recorded for the transfer of assets and accounts payable to Sollon.
Answer:
Debit : Cash $44,000
Debit : Inventory $76,000
Debit : Land $109,000
Debit : Buildings $249,000
Debit : Equipment $121,000
Credit : Accounts Payable $63,000
Credit : Shares (30,000 x $6) $180,000
Credit ; Gain on Bargain Purchase $356,000
Explanation:
Assets and liabilities are acquired at their Fair Value Amounts instead of Cost or Book Value.
A transfer of some of the asset of a Company is referred as a Asset acquisition transaction instead of Business Combination (Acquirer obtains control of one or more businesses).
This is an asset Acquisition Transaction and no consolidated Financial Statements will be prepared.
The excess of Net Assets Acquired over the consideration is called Gain on Bargain Purchase and this amounts to $356,000.
Company A is a manufacturer with sales of $6,000,000 and a 60% contribution margin. Its fixed costs equal $2,600,000. Company B is a consulting firm with service revenues of $4,500,000 and a 25% contribution margin. Its fixed costs equal $375,000. Compute the degree of operating leverage (DOL) for each company. Which company benefits more from a 20% increase in sales
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Company A
Degree of operating leverage is computed as
= Contribution margin / Net income
Net income = Contribution margin - Fixed costs
= 60% × $6,000,000 - $2,600,000
= $3,600,000 - $2,600,000
= $1,000,000
Degree of operating leverage = $3,600,000 /$1,000,000
= 3.6
Company B
Degree of operating leverage is computed as
= Contribution margin / Net income
Net income = Contribution margin - Fixed costs
= 25% × $4,500,000 - $375,000
= $1,125,000 - $375,000
= $750,000
Degree of operating leverage = $4,500,000 / $750,000
= 6
• 20% increase in sales company A
Sales = 20% × $6,000,000 + $6,000,000 = $7,200,000
Net income = 60% × $7,200,000 - $2,600,000 = $1,720,000
Degree of operating leverage = $4,320,000 / $1,720,000 = 2.5
• 20% increase in sales company B
Sales = 20% × $4,500,000 + $4,500,000 = $5,400,000
Net income = 25% × $5,400,000 - $375,000 = $975,000
Degree of operating leverage = $1,350,000 /$975,000 = 1.38
With regards to the above, company A tends to gain more from the sales increase because its operating leverage of 2.5 is more than that of company B, whose operating leverage is 1.38
As a graduating senior, Chun Kumora of Manhattan, Kansas, is eager to enter the job market at an anticipated annual salary of $54,000. c. To beat inflation, (note that inflation is usually about 3%), what is the minimum raise (in dollars) that Chun would need to receive next year
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
Inflation is when the price level of goods and services increase in an economy.
Since Kansas, is eager to enter the job market at an anticipated annual salary of $54,000 while inflation is 3%, the minimum raise that Chun would need to receive next year would be:
= 3% × $54000
= 3/100 × $54000
= 0.03 × $54000
= $1620
The minimum raise will be $1620, therefore he'll be expecting a salary of $54000 + $1620 = $55620

1. What is consolidated net income for 2011 atributable to Royce's controlling interest?
2. What is the noncontrolling interest's share of the subsidiary's net income for the year ended December 31 2011 and what is the ending balance of the noncontrolling interest in the subsidiary at December 31, 2011?
Answer:
1. Parent Income = Revenue - Expenses
Parent Income = $1260000 - $700000
Parent Income = $560000
Sub-Income = Revenue - Expenses
Sub-Income = 560000 - 420000
Sub-Income = 140000 * 60% ownership
Sub-Income = $84000
Excess Amortization = (140000 / 10) * (60%)
Excess Amortization = $8400
Consolidated Net Income = $560,000 + $84,000 - $8,400
Consolidated Net Income = $635,600
2. Sub-Income = Revenue - Expenses
Sub-Income = 560000 - 420000
Sub-Income = 140000 * 40% ownership
Sub-Income = $56000
Excess Amortization = (140000 / 10) * (40%)
Excess Amortization = $5600
Non Controlling Interest share = 56000 - 5600
Non Controlling Interest share = $50400
Non Controlling Interest at acquisition date = 700000 * 40%
Non Controlling Interest at acquisition date = $280000
Non Controlling Interest during 2015 = $56000
Excess Amortization = $5600
Balance of Interest = $280,000 + $56,000 - $5,600
Balance of Interest = $330,400

To have this amount when it is needed, he will make annual deposits at the end of each year into a savings account that earns 7.0% annual interest per year. How much must each annual deposit be
Answer:
$240.76
Explanation:
The formula to determine the annual deposit is :
p = FV / annuity factor
Annuity factor = {[(1+r)^n] - 1} / r
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
Annuity factor = (1.07^11 - 1) / 0.07 = 15.783599
p = $3800 / 15.783599 = $240.76
ISO 9000 is a certification program attesting that a factory, laboratory, or office has met the rigorous requirements set by the International Organization for Standardization.
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
ISO 9000 is a certification program attesting that a factory, laboratory, or office has met the rigorous requirements set by the International Organization for Standardization.
Basically, the ISO 9000 is a tripartite continuous process that involves planning, controlling and documentation of quality in a business firm or organization.
This ultimately implies that, the ISO 9000 is a set of standards that typically guides an organization in ensuring that they meet both the stakeholders and consumer requirements or needs with respect to their products and services under statutory and regulatory requirements at a specific period of time.
An Argentinian economist pointed out that the inflation rate based on the PCE(personal consumption expenditures) deflator was higher than the inflation rate you calculated in part (b) based on the GDP deflator. Provide two possible explanations for this difference between the inflation rates calculated from the PCE deflatorversus the GDP deflator.
Answer:
Note: The complete question is attached as picture below
Year Nominal GDP Real GDP
2019 100 100
2020 105 99
a) %change in nominal GDP = [(105 - 100) / 100] * 100 = 5%
%change in real GDP = [(99 - 100) / 100] * 100 = -1%
b) GDP deflator is = [Nominal GDP / Real GDP]. %change in GDP deflator = [(106.06 - 100) / 100] * 100 = 6.06%
c) Inflation calculated from GDP deflator and PCE is different because
- GDP deflator does not includes price increase of imported goods while PCE does.
- PCE measures change in price of goods which are generally consumed by consumers while GDP deflator includes all goods produced in an economy.
The Morrit Corporation has $900,000 of debt outstanding, and it pays an interest rate of 9% annually. Morrit's annual sales are $6 million, its average tax rate is 25%, and its net profit margin on sales is 3%. If the company does not maintain a TIE ratio of at least 6 to 1, then its bank will refuse to renew the loan, and bankruptcy will result. What is Morrit's TIE ratio
Answer:
TIE ratio = 3.962
Explanation:
given data
debt outstanding = $900000
rate = 9 %
annual sales = $6 million
average tax rate = 25%
net profit margin = 3%
TIE ratio = 6 to 1
solution
first we get here interest amount that is here express as
interest amount = 900000 × 0.09
interest amount = 81000
and
net profit will be 3 % of 6 million
net profit = 180000
so here net profit + tax will be
net profit + tax = profit before tax
net profit + tax = 180000 ÷ (1-0.25)
net profit + tax = 240000
and
profit before tax + interest = earning before interest and tax
profit before tax + interest = 81000+240000
profit before tax + interest = 321000
and
TIE ratio will be
TIE ratio = EBIT ÷ Interest
TIE ratio = 321000 ÷ 81000
TIE ratio = 3.962

Although GDP is a reasonably good measure of a nation's output, it does not necessarily include all transactions and production for that nation. Which of the following scenarios are either not accounted for or measured inaccurately by either the income or the expenditure methods of calculating GDP for the United States?
a. The costs of overfishing and other overly intensive uses of resources
b. Federal government paychecks to soldiers
c. The value Of babysitting services, when the babysitter is paid in cash and the transaction isn't reported to the government
d. The variety of goods available to consumers
When a U.S. company purchases and imports wood from Brazil to use to build new houses within the United States, this purchase increases the ________ component of GDP while also ____________ net exports by the same amount. Therefore, the purchase of wood from Brazil causes_________ in US GDP.
Answer:
a, c , d
investment
decreasing
no effect
Explanation:
Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export
Net export = exports – imports
When exports exceed import there is a trade deficit and when import exceeds import, there is a trade surplus.
Items not included in the calculation off GDP includes:
1. services not rendered to oneself
2. Activities not reported to the government
3. illegal activities
4. sale or purchase of used products
5. sale or purchase of intermediate products
6. Externalities
Investment spending by businesses includes purchases made by businesses. So, investment spending increases. Net export decreases because import is a negative function of GDP. The increase and decrease cancel each other out and there would be no change in GDP
