LYFT IPO was issued at $72/share. Before the IPO, Lyft had 240 million class A shares outstanding and wanted to issue additional 30 million class A shares. On top of that, Lyft gave its underwriters options to purchase another 5 million shares at $72 each. When Lyft stock price fell below the IPO price of $72, to support the stock price, up to how many shares the underwriters could buy from the open market without losing money

Answers

Answer: 5 million shares

Explanation:

In order to avoid losses, they can only buy the same amount of shares that they can receive in the options agreement with Lyft.

If they were to buy more than 5 million shares from the open market, they would incur losses because they would not be able to replace these shares with the ones that they can buy from Lyft as a result of their options aggrement.

You are a financial adviser working with a client who wants to retire in eight years. The client has a savings account with a local bank that pays 8% annual interest. The client wants to deposit an amount that will provide her with $1,003,500 when she retires. Currently, she has $301,400 in the account. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, and PVA of $1) (Use the appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)
How much additional money should she deposit now to provide her with $1,003,500 when she retires? (Round your answer to nearest whole dollar.)

Answers

Answer:

x = $240759.82559797761 rounded off to $240.759.83

Explanation:

To calculate the additional amount that is required to be invested today, we will use the formula for Future value of a cash flow.

FV = PV * (1+r)^t

Where,

FV and PV are future value and present value respectivelyr is the interest rate or rate of returnt is the time period

We know the Future value that is the sum required and we know the r which is 8% and t which is 8 years. We know the partial PV which is 301400 and we need to calculate the other part of PV. Thus we can say that PV = 301400 + x

Solving the equation for x where x is the additional money that should be deposited today.

1003500 = (301400 + x)  *  (1+0.08)^8

1003500 / (1+0.08)^8  = (301400 + x)

542159.8255977329 = 301400 + x

542159.8255977329  -  301400  =  x  

x = $240759.82559797761 rounded off to $240.759.83

Assume a division of Hewlett-Packard currently makes 12,000 circuit boards per year used in producing diagnostic electronic instruments at a cost of $34 per board, consisting of variable costs per unit of $24 and fixed costs per unit of $10.
Further assume Sanmina-SCI offers to sell Hewlett-Packard the 12,000 circuit boards for $34 each.
If Hewlett-Packard accepts this offer, the facilities currently used to make the boards could be rented to one of Hewlett-Packard's suppliers for $46,000 per year.
In addition, $6 per unit of the fixed overhead applied to the circuit boards would be totally eliminated.
Calculate the net benefit (cost) to HP of outsourcing the component from Samina-SCI.
(Use a negative sign with your answer, if appropriate.)

Answers

Answer:

The net benefit is -$26,000

Explanation:

Given the above information,

The total cost of manufacturing 12,000 circuit boards

= 12,000 × $34

= $408,000

Total purchase price

= 12,000 × $34

= $408,000

Fixed overhead cost applied

= 12,000 × $6

= $72,000

The rental income = $46,000

Outsourcing cost

= Total purchase price + Fixed overhead cost applied - Rental income

= $408,000 + $72,000 - $46,000

= $434,000

Therefore, Net benefit

= Total cost of manufacturing - Outsourcing cost

=$408,000 - $434,000

= -$26,000

On January 1, 2020, Blue Inc. had cash and common stock of $62,340. At that date, the company had no other asset, liability, or equity balances. On January 2, 2020, it purchased for cash $22,990 of debt securities that it classified as available-for-sale. It received interest of $4,480 during the year on these securities. In addition, it has an unrealized holding gain on these securities of $5,100 net of tax. Determine the following amounts for 2020: (a) net income, (b) comprehensive income, (c) other comprehensive income, and (d) accumulated other comprehensive income (end of 2020).

Answers

Answer:

(a) Net income = $3,000

(b) Comprehensive income = $7,000

(c) Other comprehensive income = $4,000

(d) Accumulated other comprehensive income = $4,000

Explanation:

This question is based on multi-step income statement. Therefore, some of the elements of the multi-step income statement are employed in answering this question.

(a) net income

This can be calculated as follows:

Net income = Operating income + Total other income and expense – Tax expense ………… (1)

Where, based on information in the question, we have:

Operating income = Not available = 0

Total other income and expense = Interest income = $3,000

Tax expense = Not available = 0

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Net income = 0 + $3,000 – 0 = $3,000

(b) comprehensive income

This can be calculated as follows:

Comprehensive income = Net income + Other comprehensive income …... (2)

Where:

Net income = $3,000

Other comprehensive income = Unrealized holding gain on securities = $4,000

Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:

Comprehensive income = $3,000 + $4,000 = $7,000

(c) other comprehensive income

As already stated in part (b) above, we have:

Other comprehensive income = Unrealized holding gain on securities = $4,000

(d) accumulated other comprehensive income (end of 2020).

As there is no other income from the question, this implies that:

Accumulated other comprehensive income = Unrealized holding gain on securities = $4,000

Robin, a middle management employee at a large, publicly traded company, becomes aware of accounting irregularities in financial reports (which are used internally and which also form the basis for the required filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as local and state regulators) submitted by his boss, Brooke, which suggest that Brooke has diverted $10,000.00 to the company's sustainability initiative rather than distributing the funds to the purchasing department budget as intended. The sustainability initiative has facilitated major improvements in local water quality standards and, as a result, the overall health of the community has markedly increased, at a sizeable savings of medical costs (approximately $50,000.00 in medical savings.)

Required:
What should Robin do?

Answers

Answer:

From a strict ethical point of view, Robin has the responsibility to report Brooke for the misappropriation of funds to the Sustainability Initiative as irregularities in financial reports can land the company into serious trouble with regulators.

Continuing further, Robin can report this issue to the company's compliance department or Human resource officer or whoever else is delegated with dealing with such scenarios.

Before Robin does this however, he should properly think about it using some ethical theories such as Utilitarianism. Under this theory, the end results are all that matters. Is Brookes helping by diverting funds, evidence suggests that Brooke is because the initiative has improved the lives of the community.

However, the money that was to go to the Purchasing department would have led to more inventory being purchased and the company therefore making more sales. Brooke's actions could therefore be hurting the company.

Robin should weigh this as well the potential problems the company could get into by submitting irregular statements against the positive effects of Brooke's actions. If Robin decides that the good of the company comes before the good of the community, he should report to the relevant officer. If not, Robin can keep quiet and hope that the regulators show leniency when the irregularities are discovered based on the positive effects it brought.

Economic profit = accounting profit - implicit cost

Accounting profit= total revenue - explicit cost

Implicit cost is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives

Explicit cost includes the amount expended in running the business. They include rent , salary and cost of raw materials

total explicit cost = (1,000,000 + $80,000 + $130,000) = $1,210,000

total revenue = price x output

$3 x 200,000 = $600,000

Accounting profit = $600,000 - $1,210,000 = $-610,000

implicit cost = amount he could have earned working as a sales man = $35,000

Interest on loan = 0.03 x 1,00,000 = 30,000

total = 35,000 + 30,000 = 65,000

economic profit = $-610,000 - 65,000 = $-675,000

Nicholas should have held a meeting last week to discuss next year's budget, but cancelled it because the two supervisors had a verbal confrontation on the shop floor the previous day. What conflict handling style is Nicholas demonstrating

Answers

Answer:

Avoidance

Explanation:

Conflict or disagreement usually occurs when individuals or members of a group engage in an expressed struggle that hinders a task accomplishment. This occurs mainly due to the real and perceived differences that exist among individuals or members of a group.

Communication

Simply deals with how individuals coordinate actions and achieve goals. It is usually refered to as the process by which information is exchanged between individuals via a common system such as symbols, signs, or behavior. People communicate differently and when you don't understand each other ways, attitude or method of communication, conflict is bound to occur.

Avoiding conflict-handling style

This is a type of conflict handling style that is generally of little/low concern for meeting the needs of both yourself and your group members. It is the act of deliberately ignoring or withdrawing yourself and hopingthe problem will go away and letting others to handle it.

It was fi nanced using a $200,000 down payment and a loan of $500,000 over a period of 5 years with interest at 10%. Loan payments are made in equal annual amounts (principal plus interest) over the 5 years. a. What is the amount of the MACRS-GDS depreciation taken in the 3rd year

Answers

Answer:

The amount of the MACRS-GDS depreciation taken in the 3rd year is $122,430.

Explanation:

The amount of the MACRS-GDS depreciation taken in the 3rd year can be calculated as follows:

Cost of the slurry-based separator = $700,000

Third year depreciation rate for a MACRS-GDS property class of 7 years from the MACRS-GDS table = 17.49%

MACRS-GDS depreciation in the 3rd year = $700,000 * 17.49% = $122,430

Therefore, The amount of the MACRS-GDS depreciation taken in the 3rd year is $122,430.

Explanation:

An airport needs a modern material handling system for facilitating access to and from a busy maintenance hangar. A​ second-hand system will cost​ $75,000. A new system with improved technology can decrease labor hours by​ 20% compared to the used system. The new system will cost​ $150,000 to purchase and install. Both systems have a useful life of five years. The market value of the used system is expected to be​ $20,000 in five​ years, and the market value of the new system is anticipated to be​ $50,000 in five years. Current maintenance activity will require the used system to be operated eight hours per day for 20 days per month. If labor costs​ $40 per hour and the MARR is​ 1% per​ month, which system should be​ recommended?

Answers

Answer:

The second hand machine should be chosen given that the NPV value is lower than that of the new system

Explanation:

cost of second hand system = $75,000

cost of  new system = $150,000

New system can decrease labor hours by 20%

number of useful life ( for both systems ) = 5 years

market value of second hand system after 5 years = $20,000

market value of new system after 5 years = $50,000

Second hand system can operate for 8 hours/day for 20 days = 8*20 = 160 hours per month = 1920 hours per year

labor cost = $40 per hour

MARR = 1% per month

Determine the system that should be recommended

we have to calculate the NPV for both options

for Option 1 ( second hand system )

labor cost = 40 * 1920 = $76800

cost of purchase = $75,000

MARR = 12% p.a.

residual value = $20000

First step : calculate the PV of maintenance cost = $76800× PVAF(12%, 5 years) = $276864

Next : calculate the PV of residual value =$20000× PVF(12%, 5th year)

= $11340

NPV = (75000 + 276864 - 11340 ) = $340,524

for Option 2 ( New Machine )

Labor cost = ( 1920 × 0.8 )hours ×40  = $61440

cost of machine = $150000

Pv of labor cost = 61440×3.605  = $221491.20

Residual value = $50,000

Hence ; PV of residual value = 50000 × 0.567 = $28350

Finally calculate the NPV = (150000+221491.20-28350) = $343,141.20

Logistics Solutions provides order fulfillment services for dot merchants. The company maintains warehouses that stock items carried by its dot clients. When a client receives an order from a customer, the order is forwarded to Logistics Solutions, which pulls the item from storage, packs it, and ships it to the customer. The company uses a predetermined variable overhead rate based on direct labor-hours.

In the most recent month, 185,000 items were shipped to customers using 8,000 direct labor-hours. The company incurred a total of $27600 in variable overhead costs. According to the company's standards, 0.04 direct labor-hours are required to fulfill an order for one item and the variable overhead rate is $3.50 per direct labor-hour.

Required:
a. What is the standard labor-hours allowed (SH) to ship 185,000 items to customers?
b. What is the standard variable overhead cost allowed (SH SR) to ship 185,000 items to customers?
c. What is the variable overhead spending variance?
d. What is the variable overhead rate variance and the variable overhead efficiency variance?

Answers

Answer:

Standard labor-hours allowed= 7,400 direct labor Hours.

The standard variable overhead cost= $ 25,900

Variable overhead spending variance =$400

Variable overhead rate variance =$400

Variable overhead efficiency variance=$2,100

Explanation

a.)  The standard labor-hours allowed (SH) to ship 185,000 items to customers

= 0.04 direct labor-hours  x 185,000= 7,400 direct labor Hours.

b). The standard variable overhead cost allowed to ship 185,000 items to customers=

standard labor-hours  SH ×  Standard Rate SR

7400  X $3.50= $ 25,900

c).  Variable overhead spending variance is calculated as

Actual Overhead Costs - Actual hours  x  Standard Rate  

 = $27600 -  8,000  x 3.50 = $27600 -28,000

  =$400

d1). Variable overhead rate variance =

Actual hours x Actual Variable Overhead Rate per Hour - Actual hours  Standard Variable Overhead Rate per Hour

Variable overhead rate variance =8000 x  (27600/8000) - 8000 x 3.50

8000 x 3.45 - 8000 x 3.50

27,600-28,000=$400

d2) Variable overhead efficiency variance= Actual Hours x Standard Rate - Standard Hours  x Standard Rate

8000 x 3.50 -7400 x 3.50

28,000 -25,900

=$2,100

Answers

Answer:

abandonment can occur at one specific point in the future.

Explanation:

Project management can be defined as the process of designing, planning, developing, leading and execution of a project plan or activities using a set of skills, tools, knowledge, techniques and experience to achieve the set goals and objectives of creating a unique product or service. Generally, projects are considered to be temporary because they usually have a start-time and an end-time to complete, execute or implement the project plan.

Hence, the potential decision to abandon a project has option value because abandonment can occur at one specific point in the future and no one wants a negative outcome from a project.

A bank has $50 million in assets, $47 million in liabilities and $3 million in shareholders' equity. If the duration of its liabilities are 1.3 and the bank wants to immunize its net worth against interest rate risk and thus set the duration of equity equal to zero, it should select assets with an average duration of _________.

Answers

Answer: 1.222

Explanation:

The Average duration can be derived from the formula:

Assets * Average Duration = Liabilities * Duration of Liabilities

Average Duration = (Liabilities * Duration of Liabilities) / Assets

= (47,000,000 * 1.3) / 50,000,000

= 61,100,000 / 50,000,000

= 1.222
