If annualized interest in the U.S. and France are 9% and 13%, respectively, and the spot value of the French franc is $0.1109, then at what 180-day forward rate will interest rate parity hold

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.1130 FF/$

Explanation:

Spot value = 0.1109 FF/$

Interest rate in US for 180 days = 9%*180/365 = 0.044384

Interest rate in France for 180 days = 13%*180/365 = 0.06411

Forward rate = Spot value*(1+Interest rate in US)/(1+Interest rate in France)

Forward rate = 0.1109*(1+0.06411)/(1+0.044384)

Forward rate = 0.1109*(1.06411/1.044384)

Forward rate = 0.1109* 1.018888      

Forward rate = 0.1130 FF/$

Answers

Answer:

1. A) Satisfying your day-to-day spending needs?

Statement Savings account

Bank statements will hep you keep track of the balance.

B) Making and holding funds for your car purchase?

NOW Account.

An account that earns interest yet allows the owner to write drafts against the money in the account. This would be good here as it will increase the funds you are saving for the car purchase.

C) Making and holding funds for your home purchase?

NOW Account.

NOW stands for Negotiable Order of Withdrawal account and would work here as well.

D) Making and holding funds for your retirement?

Certificate of Deposit.

These are offered by banks and earn a higher interest return. They however have to be locked up for a while without withdrawing so they are great for retirement saving.

2. Which of the following accounts is typically not insured?

A. Mutual Funds.

Mutual funds are not financial deposits so will not be covered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).

A local taxi company advertises being able to make cabs available to riders within 5 minutes. They have recruited several cab drivers to ensure that they meet this promise. Which dimension of the customer utility function they are appealing to

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is:

Timing

Explanation:

The utility function measures the level of satisfaction or the welfare of a consumer, as a function of the consumption of real goods or services. The dimensions of consumer utility function include; Fit, Timing, Location, performance, and price.

Fit: This has to do with the design of a product, satisfying a context-specific problem. That is the product "fits" the need of the consumer

Timing: This covers the length of time between when the consumer places an order to when the order arrives. A short timing is satisfying to the consumer. In this example, the timing of 5 minutes or comparatively ideal for cabs being available to riders.

Location: The location entails the extent of coverage within a country or region that the product can be accessed. Particularly in rural settings.

Performance: performance has to do with the efficiency of the product/service in the process of it being used

Price: price is the amount at which the product is made available to the consumers.

Support Department Cost Allocation-Direct Method Charlie's Wood Works produces wood products (e.g., cabinets, tables, picture frames, and so on). Production departments include Cutting and Assembly. The Janitorial and Security departments support the Cutting and Assembly departments. The Assembly Department spans about 42,560 square feet and holds assets valued at about $77,520. The Cutting Department spans about 33,440 square feet and holds assets valued at about $126,480. Charlie's Wood Works allocates support department costs using the direct method. If costs from the Janitorial Department are allocated based on square feet and costs from the Security Department are allocated based on asset value.
a. Determine the percentage of Janitorial costs that should be allocated to the Assembly Department.
b. Determine the percentage of Security costs that should be allocated to the Cutting Department.

Answers

Answer:

a. 56%

b. 62%

Explanation:

a. Janitorial costs are allocated based on square feet.

Assembly Department Square feet = 42,560

Total area for both departments = 42,560 + 33,440 = $76,000

Percentage of costs

= 42,560/ 76,000

= 56%

b. Security costs are allocated based on asset value.

Cutting Department Asset Value = $126,480

Total asset value for both departments = 77,520 + 126,480 = $204,000

Percentage of costs

= 126,480/ 204,000

= 62%

B: Shared currency Values
C. Political Risk
D: shared values and customs

Answers

Answer:

I think it's C but I'm not 100% sure.

Explanation:

Franchisors in foreign countries must be aware of political risks. Thus, the correct option is (C).

Economic problems, related legal systems, the lack of corruption, supply chain difficulties, and taxation must all be considered by franchisors.

A franchisor selecting a market in which to expand must have thorough market information as well as undertake a study of existing competitors in that area.

A corporation may choose to employ franchising as a marketing concept for business growth.

The vast majority of courts have ruled that franchisors may be held accountable for the actions of their franchisees and franchisee employees.

Therefore, the correct option is "C".

Explanation:

The life membership fee is a one-time lump sum amount paid by a new member. It gives a member access to the club facilities for the rest of their lives. Life membership is treated as a capital receipt and added to the capital fund. It appears on the liabilities side in the balance sheet.

Life membership is not treated as income for a particular year because the one-time payments permit a member lifetime access to the club services.

Costs added during the year :

Materials                                                $1,592,280

Labor                                                        $225,100

Overhead                                               $ 339,064

Total Costs                                            $2,283,744

Outputs :

Completed and Transferred Out         $2,213,640

Ending Work In Process                            $70,104

Total Costs                                           $2,283,744

Explanation:

First, calculated the number of units completed and transferred to finished goods.

Number of units completed and transferred = Beginning Inventory Units + Units Started during the period - Ending Inventory Units

Number of units completed and transferred = 35,200 units + 661,000 units -  25,400 units

                                                                         = 670,800 units

Calculation of Equivalent Units of Production with Respect to Raw Materials and Conversion Costs.

1. Materials

Ending Work In Process (25,400 × 100%)                                       =   25,400

Completed and Transferred (670,800 × 100%)                              = 670,800

Equivalent Units of Production with Respect to Raw Materials     = 696,200

2. Conversion Costs

Ending Work In Process (25,400 × 40%)                                         =    10,160

Completed and Transferred (670,800 × 100%)                              = 670,800

Equivalent Units of Production in Conversion Costs                     = 680,960

Calculation of Total Unit Cost

Unit Cost = Total Costs ÷ Total Equivalent Units

1. Materials

Unit Cost = ($78,600 + $1,592,280) ÷ 696,200

                = $2.40

2. Conversion Costs

Unit Cost = ($48,700 + $225,100 + $339,064 ) ÷ 680,960

                = $0.90

3. Total Unit Cost

Total Unit Cost = Materials + Conversion Costs

                         = $2.40 + $0.90

                         = $3.30

Calculation of costs assigned to goods transferred out and in process.

Goods transferred out = Units completed and transferred × total unit cost

                                      = 670,800 × $3.30

                                      = $2,213,640

Units in Process = Material Costs + Conversion Cost

                            = (25,400 × $2.40) + (10,160 × $0.90)

                            = $70,104

Suppose that per-unit costs for Alpha-Zeta Co. are $25 when they are producing 50,000 units. Now suppose that the firm increases production to 50,100 units and total costs are $2,000,000 at that level of production. Question: What is occurring as the firm increases production from 50,000 to 50,100 units?

Answers

Answer:

Diseconomies of scale due to the fact that per unit cost increased from $25 to $39.92

Explanation:

Economies is scale is when a larger production is a product leads to reduced cost of production.

For example if production of 1,000 units of a good costs $20 per unit, but production of 1,500 units goes for $17. The cost of production per unit reduces. So there is economies of scale.

In the given scenario production of 5,000 units is at $25 per unit.

While at 5,100 units it is (2,000,000 ÷ 50,100) = $39.92

So this is a diseconomies of scale.

A company purchased new furniture at a cost of $26,000 on September 30. The furniture is estimated to have a useful life of 5 years and a salvage value of $3,200. The company uses the straight-line method of depreciation. How much depreciation expense will be recorded for the furniture for the first year ended December 31

Answers

Answer: Depreciation for 3 months  = $1140.

Explanation:

In straight line method, Depreciation for full year  = (Cost – Salvage value) ÷ useful life

Depreciation for full year = ($26,000 -$3,200 ) ÷ 5

= $(22800÷ 5)

= $ 4,560

Furniture was purchased on September 30, so depreciation will be calculated from October to December(3 months)

Depreciation for 3 months  = Yearly depreciation x ([tex]\dfrac3{12}[/tex])

= $4,560 x (0.25)

= $1140.

Hence, Depreciation for 3 months  = $1140.

Headland Mining Company purchased land on February 1, 2020, at a cost of $1,169,500. It estimated that a total of 52,800 tons of mineral was available for mining. After it has removed all the natural resources, the company will be required to restore the property to its previous state because of strict environmental protection laws. It estimates the fair value of this restoration obligation at $96,300. It believes it will be able to sell the property afterwards for $107,000. It incurred developmental costs of $214,000 before it was able to do any mining. In 2020, resources removed totaled 26,400 tons. The company sold 19,360 tons. Compute the following information for 2020.
A) Per unit mineral cost.
B) Total material cost of December 31, 2020, inventory.
C) Total material cost in cost of goods sold at December 31, 2020.

Answers

Answer:

1. $26 per unit

2. $183,040

3. $503,360

Explanation:

1. Computation of per unit mineral cost

Per unit mineral cost=(1,169,500+96,300+214,000-107,000)/52,800

Per unit mineral cost=1,372,800/52,800

Per unit mineral cost=$26 per unit

Therefore the Per unit mineral cost will be $26 per unit

2. Computation of Total materials cost

Total materials cost= (26,400 tons-19,360 tons)*26

Total materials cost=7,040*26

Total materials cost=$183,040

Therefore the Total materials cost will be $183,040

3. Calculation for the Total materials cost in Cost of goods sold

Total materials cost in Cost of goods sold= (19,360*26)

Managers are interested in the costs of the stores and believe that the costs can be explained in large part by the number of customers patronizing the stores. Monthly data regarding customer visits and costs for the preceding year for one of the stores have been entered into the regression analysis.

Average monthly customer-visits 1,462
Average monthly total costs $4,629
Regression results: Intercept $1,496
b coefficient $2.08
R2 0.86814

Required:
a. In a regression equation expressed as y= a + bx, how is the letter b best described?
b. How is the letter y in the regression equation best described?
c. How is the letter x in the regression equation best described?
d. Based on the data derived from the regression analysis, what are the estimated costs for 370 customer-visits in a month?
e. What is the percent of the total variance that can be explained by the regression equation?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

a. In a regression equation expressed as y= a + bx, how is the letter b best described?

Here, b is the slope and best described as the estimate of the cost when there's a visit of an additional customer.

b. How is the letter y in the regression equation best described?

The letter y is the observed store cost for that particular month.

c. How is the letter x in the regression equation best described?

The letter x is the observed customer visit for that particular month.

d. Based on the data derived from the regression analysis, what are the estimated costs for 370 customer-visits in a month?

The estimated cost for 370 customer visit will be:

Y = a + bx

where,

a =$1496

b = $2.08

x = 370 customer visit

Y = $1496 + ($2.08 × 370 customer visit)

= $1496 + $769.6

= $2265.6

e. What is the percent of the total variance that can be explained by the regression equation?

The percent of total variance which the regression equation explain will be:

R2 = 0.86814 or 86.814%

Yancey Productions is a film studio that uses a job-order costing system. The company’s direct materials consist of items such as costumes and props. Its direct labor includes each film’s actors, directors, and extras. The company’s overhead costs include items such as utilities, depreciation of equipment, senior management salaries, and wages of maintenance workers. Yancey applies its overhead cost to films based on direct labor-dollars.At the beginning of the year, Yancey made the following estimates:Direct labor-dollars to support all productions $ 8,260,000Fixed overhead cost $ 4,956,000Variable overhead cost per direct labor-dollar $ 0.17Required:1. Compute the predetermined overhead rate. (I found the answer: .77 per DL$)2. During the year, Yancey produced a film titled You Can Say That Again that incurred the following costs:Direct materials $ 1,386,000Direct labor cost $ 2,478,000Compute the total job cost for this particular film.Direct Materials: $1,386,000Direct Labor: $2,478,000

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Predetermined overhead rate is

= Variable overhead cost per direct labor hours + Fixed overhead cost ÷ Direct labor-dollars

= $0.17 + $4,956,000 ÷ 8,260,000

= $0.17 + $0.6

= $0.77

Now the total cost is

= Direct material cost + direct labor cost + manufacturing cost

= $1,386,000 + $2,478,000 + ($2,478,000 × $0.77)

= $5,772,060

Selling and administrative
expenses 600,000 20 20
Totals $ 2,250,000 $ 75
Required:
a. Compute the sales price per unit that would result in a budgeted operating income of $900,000, assuming that the company produces and sells 30,000 pairs. (Hint: First compute the budgeted sales revenue needed to produce this operating income.) Assume that the company decides to sell the boots at a unit price of $121 per pair.
b-1. Compute the total fixed costs budgeted for the year.
b-2. Compute the variable cost per unit.
b-3. Compute the contribution margin per pair of boots.
b-4. Compute the number of pairs that must be produced and sold annually to break even at a sales price of $121 per pair.

Answers

Answer:

a. Sales volume = (Fixed costs + Target income) / Contribution margin per unit

     Fixed costs = ( Percentage of fixed Selling and Admin expenses) +  

      Percentage of fixed Manufacturing expenses

     = 600,000 * 80% + 720,000 * 75%

     = 480,000 + 540,000

     = $1,020,000

30,000 units = (1,020,000 + 900,000) / Contribution Margin per unit

Contribution margin per unit = 1,920,000/30,000

= $64

Sales per unit = Contribution margin per unit  + Variable cost per unit

       Variable Cost per unit = 21 + 10 + (24*25%) + (20 * 20%)

        = $41

Sales per unit = 64 + 41

= $105 per unit

b - 1. Fixed costs = ( Percentage of fixed Selling and Admin expenses) + Percentage of fixed Manufacturing expenses

= 600,000 * 80% + 720,000 * 75%

= 480,000 + 540,000

= $1,020,000

b - 2. Variable Cost per unit

= Direct materials + Direct Labor + variable percentage of Manufacturing overhead cost per unit + variable percentage of Selling and administrative per unit

= 21 + 10 + (24*25%) + (20 * 20%)

= $41

b - 3. Contribution margin = Selling price - Variable cost

= 121 - 41

= $80

b - 4. Breakeven Point = Fixed Cost / Contribution margin

= 1,020,000/80

= 12,750 units

Andreasen Corporation manufactures thermostats for office buildings. The following is the cost of each unit:
Materials $ 36.00
Labor 14.00
Variable overhead 4.00
Fixed overhead ($1,800,000 per year; 100,000 units per year) 18.00
Total $ 72.00
Simpson Company has approached Andreasen with an offer to buy 7,500 thermostats at a price of $60 each. The regular price is $100. Andreasen has the capacity to produce the 7,500 additional units without affecting its current production of 100,000 units. Simpson requires that each unit use its branding, which requires a more expensive label, resulting in an additional $2 per unit material cost. The labor cost of affixing the label will be the same as for the current models. The Simpson order will also require a one-time rental of packaging equipment for $20,000.

Target (TGT) recently earned a profit of $4.15 per share and has a P/E ratio of 23.19. Earnings have been growing at 11.5 percent per year over the past few years. If this growth continues, what would the stock price be in five years if the P/E ratio remains unchanged

Answers

Answer:

$165.85

Explanation:

Calculation for what would the stock price be in five years

First step is to calculate the EPS in 5 years

Using this formula

EPS in 5 years=EPS 0 (1+ Growth rate)^n

Let plug in the formula

EPS in 5 years=4.15*(1+11.5%)^5

EPS in 5 years=$7.1519

Now let calculate for the stock price in 5 years

Using this formula

Stock price in 5 years=P/E ratio*EPS in 5 years

Let plug in the formula

Stock price in 5 years=23.19*$7.1519

Stock price in 5 years=$165.85

Therefore what would the stock price be in five years is $165.85

Passage 1: Excerpt from Will Yellow School Buses Soon Become Rolling Ads?1 Tight school budgets could soon translate into Missouri school districts selling ad space on yellow school buses.2 Missouri state Rep. T.J. Berry, R-Kearney, says his billHB 224isnt a cure-all by any stretch. But legalizing ads inside and outside the buses would give school districts one additional way to raise money in these tough times.3 Every single school district has had to deal with budget concerns, Berry said last week. And generally speaking, the way they have had to deal with those has been cuts or tax increases.4 The school bus is something that is already out there and paid for, he said. His bill would permit districts to generate a modest stream of income from their buses.5 Few question the need for finding additional funds when it comes to educating children, but at least two groups think the school bus exteriors should remain ad-free.6 There is no such thing as free money, said Josh Golin, associate director for the Campaign for a Commercial Free Childhood. There are real costs to this: the price of selling out your students to advertisers.7 Students dont need the first and last message they receive from their schools each day to be advertisements, Golin said. Students boarding a bus are certainly a captive audience.8 The National Association of State Directors of Pupil Transportation Services opposes advertising on safety grounds. Obscuring the recognizable school-bus yellow exterior with ads and distracting other drivers present a safety problem around school buses that cannot be ignored, the group said in its position paper.9 National studies have shown that anything that diverts a drivers attention from the road can pose a hazard, opponents say.10 And a big yellow bus doesnt distract? Berry asked.11 Several years ago in Indiana, a Department of Education lawyer suggested that allowing advertisements on buses would invite First Amendment challenges by spurned advertisers, the group noted.12 Berry said the bill would limit the types of advertising that would be allowed.13 The regulations would prohibit ads that contain obscene or sexual material, or messages associated with gambling, tobacco products, alcohol, and political campaigns or causes. The ads could not promote drug use or any illegal activity or antisocial behavior. They cant contain harmful, discriminatory, false, misleading or deceptive messages.14 There are a lot of safeguards being built in, he said.15 Berry emphasized that the space reserved for the ads would be very limited, meaning toward the back of the bus.16 By 2012, nine statesArizona, Colorado, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Tennessee, Texas and Utahpermitted advertising on the exterior of school buses, according to the Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood. Several, including Missouri, considered it last year.17 The bill made it out of the Missouri House last year but did not clear the Senate, Berry said. He acknowledged that the idea was very controversial.(questions)In Passage 1, how does the author compare the issues of tax increases and advertising on buses?A)They are both actions that require safeguards.B)They are both issues of controversy in school districts.C)They are both possible approaches to dealing with budgetary concerns.D)They are both present problems that cannot be ignored by state representatives. how many counties are in tennessee 7.
