Marketing and common sense

Answers

Answer 1
1. Elevator pitch. You should be marketing all the time — wherever you are. Therefore, you need a compelling elevator pitch. Research shows the average attention span of an adult is about 6 to 8 seconds. That’s all the time you have to grab someone’s attention. If you successfully engage them, then you only have a little over a minute to really sell them on your product or service. So you need to invest the time to craft a killer elevator pitch. The return on your investment will pay huge dividends in terms of creating business opportunities.

2. Leverage Community. You don’t have to think big when it comes to your marketing efforts. Think locally. What’s going on in your community? Sponsor a Little League team or a 5k charity walk/run. Print bookmarks and leave them at the local library. If you understand who your ideal customer is, think about how and where they spend their time. Then search for opportunities to be there with your marketing message.

3. Collaborative Marketing. Put together a group of synergistic, non-competitive businesses in your area and agree to cross-promote. You can use coupons, fliers, reciprocal website links or even offer bundled promotions. By collaborating with each other you can expand your customer base because you’ll be reaching new people.

4. Networking. I’m a huge fan of networking. I don’t think there is any better way to build a business than to get out there, shake some hands, and get known. Networking requires a time commitment and it doesn’t provide instant gratification, but a strong network is one of the greatest assets any business person can have.

5. Give a Speech. A lot of people hate public speaking. However, there are lots of groups you are looking for qualified, subject-matter experts who can present to their groups. So take a deep breath and volunteer. You don’t have to be a pro as long as the information you share is helpful to the audience. And the upside — the more you do it the easier it gets. Plus it positions you as a credible authority in your field

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

Answers

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%

Scott wants to accumulate $3,800 over a period of 11 years so that a cash payment can be made for roof maintenance on his summer cottage. 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

Answers

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

Joan has a choice of purchasing a car for $20,000 with 9.7 percent interest cost to borrow and a three-year repayment period for leasing the vehicle. Leasing the auto would cost $300 a month for a three-year term. The sales tax is 6 percent. The car is expected to have a value of $14,000 at the end of the leasing period. Joan can obtain 7 percent after tax on similar marketable investments. Should she lease or buy the car

Answers

Answer:

Joan should buy the car instead of leasing it.

Explanation:

Residual value of the car at year3 is $14,000

The sales tax of the car is 6% * $20,000 = $1200

Annual payment of the money borrowed for car:

PV = $20,000, I/Y = 9.7/12, FV = 0, PMT = $642.53

Annual payment : $642.53 * 12 = $7,710

Cost of owning the car:

$1,200 + $7,710 + $7,710 + $7,710 - $14,000 = $10,330

Lease Rentals :

$3,600 + 3,600 + 3,600 = $10,800

The cost of owning a car is lower than rentals so Joan should go with the buying choice.

Joshua loans his son, Seth, $100,000 interest free for five years. Seth uses the money for a down payment on his home. Assume that the applicable federal interest rate is 4 percent. What are the tax consequences of this loan to Joshua and to Seth? How would your answer change if Seth uses the money to invest in corporate bonds paying 8 percent annual interest? [LO

Answers

Answer:

What are the tax consequences of this loan to Joshua and to Seth?

The IRS requires that any loans must charge a minimum interest rate, and in this case, since Joshua is not charging any interest to his son, the IRS will consider the minimum interest rate as a gift and will tax it that way. Since Joshua can make gifts for $15,000 per year, if the threshold is already passed, the IRS will consider $100,000 x 4% = $4,000 as taxable gifts.

How would your answer change if Seth uses the money to invest in corporate bonds paying 8 percent annual interest?

The answer shouldn't change since Joshua is the one that can be taxed here. Seth cannot deduct any interest expense or gift tax expense either.

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.

Answers

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

The production function for fish harvesting is Cobb-Douglas. Currently, the Marginal Rate of Technical Substitution (MRTS) between Labor (L) and Capital (K) is higher than the wage to rent ratio (MRTS > w/r). This means that, a. More labor and less capital should be used to lower costs b. More capital and less labor should be used to lower costs c. Labor and Capital being used are already minimizing costs d. We need to know the fixed costs of production to determine if costs are minimized or not

Answers

Answer:

a. More labor and less capital should be used to reduce cost.

Explanation:

Condition for profit maximization is where the Marginal rate of technical substitution = Ratio of factor-input prices. This condition is known as a Producer Optimum in Long Run. MRTS itself is the ratio of Marginal Productivity of Labor to Capital. Thus, MRTS > w/r implies that Relative marginal productivity of labor is greater than relative cost of labor. This means that labor comes cheaper than capital when both their productivities are compared. So it is profitable to employ more labor than capital. This will continue till wages increase up to the point where MRTS = w/r.

Answers

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)

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

Answers

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

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

Answers

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.

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

Answers

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

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

Answers

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

At the beginning of the year, Cann Co. started construction on a new $2 million addition to its plant. Total construction expenditures made during the year were $200,000 on January 2, $600,000 on May 1, and $300,000 on December 1. On January 2, the company borrowed $500,000 for the construction at 12%. The only other outstanding debt the company had was a 10% interest rate, long-term mortgage of $800,000, which had been outstanding the entire year. What amount of interest should Cann capitalize as part of the cost of the plant addition

Answers

Answer:

$72,500

Explanation:

The computation of the amount of interest capitalized is as follows:

= ($500,000 × 12%) + ($625,000 - $500,000) × 10%

= $60,000 + $12,500

= $72,500

The Average expenditure for the year  is

= ($200,000 × 12 ÷ 12) +  ($600,000 × 8 ÷ 12)  + ($300,000 × 1 ÷ 12)

= $200,000  + $400,000  + $25,000

= $625,000

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?

Answers

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

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

Answers

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

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

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.

Answers

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.
