The stock of Business Adventures sells for $50 a share. Its likely dividend payout and end-of-year price depend on the state of the economy by the end of the year as follows:
Dividend Stock price
Boom $3.00 $60
Normal economy 1.20 58
Recession .75 49
Calculate the expected holding-period return and standard deviation of the holding-period return. All three scenarios are equally likely.

Answers

Answer 1

Solution :

Holding Period return is given by :

Holding period return [tex]$=\frac{\text{ending value - beginning value + dividend income}}{\text{beginning value}}$[/tex]

Now the holding the period return for the various cases :

Boom

Ending stock price = $ 60

Beginning stock price = $ 50

Dividend income = $ 3

Hence, holding period return is [tex]$=\frac{60-50+30}{50}$[/tex]

                                                      = 0.26

So, the holding period return = 26%

Normal economy

Ending stock price = $ 58

Beginning stock price = $ 50

Dividend income = $ 1.2

Hence the holding period return [tex]$=\frac{58-50+1.2}{50}$[/tex]

                                                      = 0.184

So, the holding period return = 18.4%

Recession

Ending stock price = $ 49

Beginning stock price = $ 50

Dividend income = $ 0.75

Hence the holding period return [tex]$=\frac{49-50+0.75}{50}$[/tex]

                                                      = -0.005

So, the holding period return = -0.5%

As all the cases, the probability is same = 0.333

Therefore, the expected holding period return is :

The expected holding period return = (0.333 x 0.26) + (0.333 x 0.184) + (0.333 x -0.005)

                                                           = 0.8658 + 0.06127 - 0.00166

                                                           = 0.149515

Therefore, the expected holding period return = 14.95%

You are the owner of a smoothie shop in California. Afterhearing a podcast about customer relationship management (CRM), youdecide to gather more information regarding customer behavior inyour store to better understand the relationships that existbetween your business and your customers. CRM is a comprehensivebusiness model for increasing revenues and profits by focusing oncustomers.Customer Lifetime Value (CLV) is particularly importantwhen it comes to CRM and is often considered one of the mostcrucial metrics associated with a CRM system. Collecting data oncustomers and their relationships with a company (and commonlystoring it within a CRM system) helps make it possible to calculateCLV, or the total amount a customer will spend throughout theirrelationship with a company.
After a review and analysis of your customer data you are ableto determine the following information:
Average Value of Sales per Year per Customer: $120
Average Customer Retention Cost: $75
Customer Acquisition-oriented Marketing Expenses per Month:$1,000
Average Customer Retention Rate: 80%
You acquire an average of 25 new customers a month.
Use the following equations to help determine the CLV:
Average Customer Acquisition Cost = CustomerAcquisition-oriented Marketing Expenses per Month/Number of NewCustomers Acquired per Month
Customer Lifetime Value = [1/(1-Average Customer Retention Rate)] x(Average Value of Sales per Year per Customer)- (Average customerAcquisition Cost + Average Customer Retention Cost)
This activity is important because marketing managers need tounderstand and know how to calculate customer lifetime value as apart of customer relationship management. Knowledge of CLV caninform a number of critical marketing decisions related to suchfactors as the development of strategies designed to aid in theacquisition, nurturing, and retention of customers.
The goal of this exercise is to test your understanding of CLVby considering this example.
You must (1) complete the spreadsheet and (2) answer thequestions that follow to receive full credit for this exercise.

Your sister just deposited $5,500 into an investment account. She believes that she will earn an annual return of 8.8 percent for the next 6 years. You believe that you will only be able to earn an annual return of 8 percent over the same period. How much more must you deposit today in order to have the same amount as your sister in 6 years

Answers

Answer:

$5749.02

Explanation:

The first step is to determine the future value of my sister's deposit

The formula for calculating future value:

FV = P (1 + r)^n

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

N = number of years

5500 (1.088)^6 = $9122.97

the second step is to determine the present value of  $9122.97 using an interest rate of 8%

$9122.97 / (1.08)^6 = $5749.02

Sheridan Corporation had 2020 net income of $798,000. During 2020, Sheridan paid a dividend of $2 per share on 33,200 shares of preferred stock. During 2020, Sheridan had outstanding 236,000 shares of common stock.

Required:
Compute Sheridan's 2020 earnings per share.

Answers

Answer:

$3.10 per share

Explanation:

Total preferred dividend = 33,200 shares * $2

Total preferred dividend = $66,400

Earning per share = (Net income - Preferred dividend) / Number of common stock outstanding

Earning per share = ($798,000 - $66,400) / 236,000 shares

Earning per share = $731,600 / 236,000 shares

Earning per share = $3.10 per share

You own a golf course in Florida and you need to determine how many golf carts you need to buy to maximize profits. Please answer the following questions given the information below.
A brand new golf cart costs 2000 rounds of golf and the rate of depreciation is 5%.
The real interest rate is 8%
The expected marginal product of capital is given by MPKf = 1000 – 10K.
a) What is the user cost of capital and what is it expressed in?
b) How many golf carts should you buy to maximize profits (i.e., what is K*)?​
c) Draw a graph (the uc / MPK graph) depicting the state of affairs and label this initial profit maximizing point as point A.​
Now suppose the (local) government with all their financial shortfalls embarks on a campaign to raise revenue to fund the fire department by imposing a so-called "luxury tax" (we know it as τ) equal to 15% of gross revenue. What happens to the profit maximizing number of golf carts? Please show all work and round to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

a) 260 rounds of golf

b) 74

c) attached below

d) 70 golf carts

Explanation:

a) Calculate the user cost of capital and what is it expressed in

user cost of capital = total depreciation + total interest

= ( rate of depreciation * Golf cart cost ) + ( real interest rate * Golf cart cost )

= ( d + r ) Golf cart cost

= ( 0.05 + 0.08 ) 2000 = 260 rounds of golf

b) determine the number of carts that should be bought to maximize profits

Profits are maximized when User Cost of capital = MPKF

(d +r) Golf cart cost = MP Kf = 1000 – 10K

( 0.05 + 0.08 ) 2000 = 1000 – 10K

260 = 1000 – 10K     ∴ K = ( 1000 - 260 ) / 10 = 74

c) attached below is the required graph

d) Determine what happens to the profit maximizing number of golf carts

User cost of capital ( 1 - t ) = MPK^f

∴ User cost of capital ( 1 - t ) = 1000 – 10K

260 ( 1 - 0.15 ) = 1000 – 10K

305.88 = 1000 – 10K

K=69.41

that is approximately 70 golf carts is been bought to maximize profit

Kawamura, a careful utility maximizer, consumes peanut butter and ice cream. Assume that both peanut butter and ice cream are normal goods and that diminishing marginal utility applies to both goods. Right after he achieves the utility-maximizing level of consumption of the two goods, the price of peanut butter falls. After he adjusts to this event, the marginal utility of peanut butter goes _____ and that of ice cream goes _____.

Answers

Answer:

The marginal utility of peanut butter goes down and that of ice cream goes up.

Explanation:

The substitution effect states that when the price of a product falls, it will lead to a rise in the quantity demanded of the product as buyers will buy more of the product that is now relatively cheaper.

And as more of a good is bought, its marginal utility falls. And as less of a product is bought, its marginal utility increases.

Based on the above explanation therefore, the marginal utility of peanut butter goes down and that of ice cream goes up after Kawamura adjusts to the event.

This is because as more of peanut butter is bought due to the fall in its price, its marginal utility falls. And as less of ice cream is bought as it is now relatively more expensive, its marginal utility increases.

Explain why a finance manager need to understand accounting information even if the firm has a trained accountant on its staff.

Answers

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given question:

Explanation:

A financial manager should understand adequate information on accountancy. This is irrespective of whether the business does have a trained counterpart.

Accountancy is a necessary input into the function of financial management. Throughout the extent, as accounts were important input in financial decision-making is closely connected with both the interaction between finance and financial.

Accrual analysis provides information mostly on the company's operations. The result of the accountancy is accounts like the income statement, the income statement, and the position financial adjustments report. The information in such statements helps money advisors assess a company's previous growth and career projections.

The purpose of accountancy in the choice process is to gather and provide financial data on the institution's past, present, and future activities.

During the economic transaction, the finance department uses these data. This is not possible for money advisors to collect data or to make choices from accounts. And an investor's primary focus is to collect data and display it, whereas budgeting, control, and judgment are the main job of a financial manager. In a sense, financial management starts at the end of accountancy.

A 20-year, 8% semiannual coupon bond with a par value of $1,000 may be called in 5 years at a call price of $1,040. The bond sells for $1,100. (Assume that the bond has just been issued.)

Required:
a. What is the bond's yield to maturity?
b. What is the bond's current yield?
c. What is the bond's capital gain or loss yield?
d. What is the bond's yield to call?

Answers

Answer:

A. 3.57%

B. 7.27%

C. 5.45%

Explanation:

a. Calculation to determine What is the bond's yield to maturity

Using this formula

SemiannualYTM=PMT+Par−Price÷N÷Par+Price/22

Where,

Par = $1,000

Annual payment = $1,000 x 8% = $80

Semiannual payment = $80 x 0.5 = $40

Price = $1,100

Call price = $1,040

Time to call = 5 years

Time to maturity = 20 years

Let plug in the formula

SemiannualYTM=$40+$1,000−$1,100÷20×2÷$

1,000+$1,100/2

SemiannualYTM=3.57%

b. Calculation to determine What is the bond's current yield

Using this formula
