Answer:

1. Refer to Instruction, how many euros will the U.S. investor acquire with his initial $500,000 investment?

$500,000 / $1.30 = €384,615.38

2. Refer to Instruction, at an average price of €60/share, how many shares of stock will the investor be able to purchase?

€384,615 / €60 = 6,410.25

3. Refer to Instruction, at the end of the year the investor sells his stock that now has an average price per share of €57. What is the investor's average rate of return before converting the stock back into dollars?

(€57 - €60) / €60 = -5%

4. Refer to Instruction, at the end of the year the investor sells his stock that now has an average price per share of €57. What is the investor's average rate of return after converting the stock back into dollars?

[(6,410 x €57) + €15] x $1.35 = $493,269.75

($493,269.75 - $500,000) / $500,000 = -1.35%

Answer: c. Monopolies.

Explanation:

Because Monopolies have no competition, the main incentive to be efficient is missing. This leads to a situation where Monopolies are not as efficient as they are to be in production as well as price because they will charge a price that does not match the optimal quantity associated with that price.

With no or few competition in the market, consumers will not have a lot of choices on entities to source the good from and there is a problem of Rent seeking with Monopolies as well. Rent seeking for monopolies occurs when they charge people above the price they are to charge if they were in a competitive market. They are therefore making more money than they should at the expense of customers.

Answer: $10,100

Explanation:

Based on the information that have been given in the question, the project's operating cash flow goes thus:

Sales. $33,300

Less: cost. $19,700

Less: depreciation. $1,900

Profit before tax $11,700

Less: tax. $3500

Net profit. $8200

Add: depreciation. $1900

Operating cash flow. $10,100

Answer:

1. Households decide to save a larger share of their income. - Aggregate-Demand Curve

If households in the economy started saving more of their money then this would leave less money for consumption which is one of the components of Aggregate Demand. When Consumption decreases so also will Aggregate Demand thereby shifting the Aggregate-Demand Curve to the left.

2. Florida orange groves suffer a prolonged period of below-freezing temperatures. - Short-run Aggregate Supply Curve

With the Florida Orange Groves suffering from below freezing temperatures, the oranges will not grow as much leading to a poor harvest. This will reduce the supply of oranges in the economy and shift the short-run Aggregate supply curve left.

3. Increased job opportunities overseas cause many people to leave the country. Both Aggregate-Demand Curve and Short-run Aggregate Supply Curve.

With less people in the Economy, there will be less people spending on goods and services which will cause the Aggregate Demand curve to shift to the left.

Also with people leaving the country, the labor force will decrease which will mean that less people are available to produce goods and services so the short-run Aggregate supply curve will shift left.

Answer:

11.3%

Explanation:

In this scenario a painting was bought at present value of $145,000 and sold at future value of $307,000. The time is 7 years in the future.

Return on investment is the gain on original cost of a project. A positive return on investment will result in profit of the project.

To calculate annual rate we use the following formula

Present value = Future value (1 + rate) ^ -number of years

145,000 = 307,000 {(1+r) ^ -7}

145,000/307,000 = (1+r) ^-7

0.4723 = (1 + r) ^ -7

1.113 = 1+ r

r = 0.113= 11.3%

Answer:

Steel industry in the United States of America has had its up and down over the years. this is especially going by the fact that it is cheaper to import steel from outside America than to buy those produced in U.S. However, high tariff on steel import would enable the domestic steel producers to meet their obligation as well as recoup their investments in the steel industry in U.S.

For example, most construction based organisation would prefer to buy from domestic steel producer if the price and tariff of imported ones makes it extremely difficult to purchase.

On the other-hand, the high tariff placed on steel import could also harm steel users due to the fact that, the quality of steel which they buy from outside U.S would no longer be available to them.

Also, they would be forced to buy at whatever price from domestic producers whether they had need for the steel or not due to high tariff on imported ones.

When a high tariff is placed on steel imports, U.S. steel producers produce more steel and they pay a higher price.

Answer: D. more; higher

Explanation:

Answer:

$52.91

Explanation:

With regards to the above, we will apply the dividend discount model to come up with the price for share.

Under the dividend discount model, the price for share represents the present value of all its future dividend discounted at the required rate of return.

Since the share has 12 annual equal dividend payments of 8.15 each year, while the required rate is 11%, we can apply the below annuity to arrive at the share price.

(8.15/0.11) × [ 1- 1.11^(-12) ] = $52.91

Therefore, the current share price is $52.91

Answer:

YTM (Annual( = 10.13%

Effective Annual Yield =10.40%  

Explanation:

In order to calculate Yield to maturity, we need to use yield to maturity formula.

Formula: Yield to maturity = [C +(F – P)/n]/(F + P)/2

Where,

C = Coupon amount

F = Face value

n = number of periods

P = Current price

Data

C =  1000 x 8 % = 80

C (6months) = 80 x 6/12 = 40

F = $1000

n = 30 years

P = $800

Solution

YTM = 40 + (1000 – 800/30)/(1000 + 800)/2

YTM = 40 + (200/30)/(1800/2 )

YTM = 40 +( 200/30)/900

YTM = 5.068 semiannual

YTM (Annual( = 10.13%

Effective Annual Yield = [tex](\frac{1+0.1014}{2})^{2-1}[/tex]

Effective Annual Yield =10.40%  

Answer:

$10,000 credited

Explanation:

DATA

Machine cost = 510,000

Salvage value = $60,000

Useful life = 6 years

Depreciation = $60,000/6years

Depreciation = $10,000

It means that we have overstated depreciation expense for the year with the amount of $10,000.

Retained earnings will be credited by $10,000 As the depreciation expense was overstated mistakenly by $10,000

Answer and Explanation:

The statement of cash flow involves 3 kinds of activities mentioned below:

1. Operating activities: Many transactions are based that affect the working capital following net income. It would increase the growth in current assets and a decrease in current liabilities, whereas adding the decrease in current properties and an increase in current liabilities.

This should mitigate any work capital shifts. Furthermore, the cost of depreciation is attributed to the net income and the loss on the sale of assets is attributed while the benefit on the sale of assets is deducted

2. Investing: it monitors activities involving the acquisition and selling of long-term assets. The purchase is cash outflow while the selling is cash inflow

3. Financing activities: it monitors activities that impact on the shareholders' long-term debt and equity balance. Share issue is cash inflow whereas cash outflows are redemption and dividend.

Therefore based on the above explanation, the classification is as follows

1 Financing Activity

2. Operating activity

3 Investing activity

4  Financing Activity

5  Operating activity

6 Investing activity

7  Financing Activity

8  Financing Activity

9  Operating activity

10  Operating activity

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

Current Access Control rosters should be authenticated, authorized and accounted for by the manager or their designated representative.

Bio-metrics, Electronic locks, and Smart cards are sensitive data-derivation technologies and since they are applied in a number of sectors - e.g. Telecommunications, Retail, Defense, Healthcare, Hospitality, and Information Technology - current access to devices and software applications should be authenticated by the manager or a designated representative of the manager.

Answer: False

Explanation:

The cash flow from investing activities is a cash flow section that shows cash generated or the cash that is spent which relates to activities involving investment and this include buying physical assets, the investments in securities, or sale of assets or securities.

Therefore, the above analysis I the question is wrong.

Answer:

HCA

a. HCA's Liabilities-to-assets ratios and times-interest-earned ratios in the years 2005 through 2009:

1. Liabilities-to-assets ratios = Total liabilities/Total Assets

                  Dec. 09     Dec. 08    Dec. 07     Dec. 06     Dec. 05

                 136.63%     141.60%    143.18%     147.51%     78.12%

2. Times-interest-earned ratios = EBIT/Interest Expense

                  Dec. 09     Dec. 08      Dec. 07       Dec. 06       Dec. 05

                 1.91 times  1.45 times   1.33 times    2.76 times   4.11 times

b. The percentage decline in EBIT that HCA could have suffered each year between 2005 and 2009 to make it unable to make interest payments out its operating earnings, where operating earnings is defined as EBIT:

                  Dec. 09     Dec. 08      Dec. 07       Dec. 06       Dec. 05

                 191%            145%           133%            276%         411%

c. The volatility of HCA's cash flows over the period 2005 to 2009:

The standard deviation of the cash flows (cash and cash equivalents) is 115, showing that there is so much volatility in the cash flows.

d. HCA's return on invested capital (ROIC) in the years 2005 - 2009:

= Net Income - Dividend / Total Liabilities + Equity x 100

ROIC =                        4.37%      2.77%      3.64%        4.38%     6.41%

Answer: b) Project B

Explanation:

Payback period works by checking how long it will take a project to pay back the initial amount invested in it. Project A.

Project A

Payback Period = Year before Payback happens + Amount left till payback/Cash inflow in year of payback

= Time 1 + Time 2

= 4,000 + 3,000

= $7,000

This amount is not enough to cover the investment of $10,000 so the investment will be paid in Time 3 and remains $3,000.

= 2 + 3,000/10,000

= 2.3 Times

Project B

= Time 1 + Time 2

= 3,000 + 2,000

= $5,000

At the end of Time 2, Project B has paid off its initial investment of $5,000. Its Payback period is 2 Times. This is lower than Project A so this project will rank higher.

Required: Compute the below table to calculate the following. (Amounts to be deducted should be indicated with a minus sign.)

Note: See the attached Excel file for the computed table.

Also note the following:

1. In the computed table, all the Trading Securities and Securities Available-for-Sale are stated at Fair Value, and the Net Income (I/S) of each of the security is calculated by deducting the Cost of each of them their Fair Value.

2. Securities to Be Held-to-Maturity are stated at Cost and therefore, no profit is reported for them.

Answer:

C. $385.7m

Explanation:

Enterprise value = Market value of equity + Market value of all types of debt - Cash in the balance sheet

Market value of equity = Current share price × number of shares outstanding

= $16 × 10.2 million shares

= $163,200,000

Market value of all types of shares = Market value of long term debt + Market value of current portion of long term debt + notes payable / short term debt

We assume that market value of debts = Book value of debts

Therefore,

Market value of debt = $227m + $40.7m + $10.9m

= $278.6 m

Cash in the balance sheet = $56.10 m

Therefore;

Enterprise value = $163.20m + $278.60 - $56.1

=$385.7 m

Answer: 30,000; $110

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that someone own 5% of Coastal Corporation's 400,000 outstanding common shares and that the stock was trading for $165 per share before Coastal executives announced a 3-for-2 stock split.

The share owned after the split will be:

= 5% × 400,000 × (3/2)

= 0.05 × 400,000 × 1.5

= 30,000

The price after the split will be the current price divided by the split ratio. Tgis will be:

= $165/1.5

= $110

Answer:

Quiet enjoyment

Explanation:

Quiet enjoyment is a clause in lease agreement that provides a guarantee that the tenant will occupy the property in peace without interference from any other claimants or the landlord.

For example this clause protects a tenant from being removed from a property by someone of higher rank or authority like an agent.

The law recognises quiet enjoyment even when it is not stated explicitly in a lease agreement. It is assumed that every tenant has a right to quiet enjoyment

Answer: 1 dependent

Explanation:

Only Dale can be claimed as a dependent as he is a qualifying child who is under 24 and is a full time student.

Kim cannot be claimed as a dependent as Kim is above the age of 19. To be a qualifying child for dependency, Kim would have to be less than 19 or less than 24 were Kim a full time student.

Grant also does not qualify as a dependent under the Qualifying relative designation as Grant's gross income of $5,000 exceeds the limit of $4,200 that Grant would have to be making less than in 2019 to be claimed as a qualifying relative.

Explanation:

Journals serve multi-purposes for the initial recording of business transactions.  They also play important roles for period-end and other adjustments.  Journals come in hand for closing entries of transactions.  Importantly, they identify the accounts that are debited and credited respectively.  There are many kinds of journals for various purposes, from the general to so many of the specialized kinds.  We can even use journal entries to record exchange of quantities, not only dollar amounts, as demonstrated above.

Answer: $8,400

Explanation:

The $9,600 is for 2 years in advance. This can be apportioned per month at a rate of;

= 9,600/24

= $400 per month.

October to the end of the year is 3 months so;

= 400 * 3

= $1,200 will be recorded for the year.

Prepaid Insurance will therefore reduce to;

= 9,600 - 1,200

= $8,400

Answer:

$282,706

Explanation:

Calculation to Determine the purchase price of the house

First step

In order for us to determine the purchase price of the house we would be using TVM Calculation to find the PMT

Hence,

PMT =

PV = 200,000

FV = 0

N = 240

I = 0.084/12

Thus,PMT = $1,723.01

The Second step will be to Calculate the Loan Amount Using TVM Calculation,

PV =

FV = 0

PMT = -1,723.01

N = 360

I = 0.084/12

Thus, PV = $226,164.98

Last step is to Determine the purchase price of the house

Using this formula

Purchase price=PV/(100%-20% down)

Let plug in the formula

Purchase price =226,164.98/(0.80)

Purchase price = $282,706

Therefore the purchase price of the house will be $282,706

Answer:

The Present Value of the bond at the market rate = $90,438.36  

Explanation:

The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).  

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV  

The value of bond can be worked out as follows:  

Step 1  

PV of interest payments  

Semi annul interest payment  

= 10% × 81000 × 1/2 = 4050

Semi-annual yield = 8%/2= 4 % per six months  

Total period to maturity (in months)  

= (2 × 8) = 16 periods (Note the bond term is 8 yeras)  

PV of interest = 4050 × (1-1.04^(-16))/0.04 = 47,191.79

Step 2  

PV of Redemption Value  

Assuming a redemption value equals to the nominal value =

PV of RV = 81,000 × 1.04^-16 =  43,246.56  

Step 3 :Total Present Value

Total prent value =  43,246.56  + 47,191.79721  =  90,438.36

The Present Value of the bond at the market rate = $90,438.36  

Answer: disaffirm

Explanation:

most cases, whether the contract has not yet been performed (an executory contract) or has been fully performed (an executed contract), the minor may disaffirm the contract.

It should be noted that a contract that is signed by a minor unless in some rare exceptions is normally void and therefore, the minor can disaffirm the contract.

Answer:

financial advantage for accepting special order = $59,520

Explanation:

relevant production costs for special order (2,400 units):

direct materials $44.60

direct labor $8.50

variable manufacturing overhead $1.50

variable selling & administrative expense $1

total costs per unit = $55.60

total revenue from special order = 2,400 x $80.40 = $192,960

relevant costs associated to special order = 2,400 x $55.60 = ($133,440)

financial advantage for accepting special order = $59,520

Answer:

A. 5%

B. $20

C.-$20

D. $100 increase

E.$2

Explanation:

a. Calculation for the equilibrium interest rate in Moola

When we look at the table we would actually see that Money supply amount of $500 equal the Money demand amount of $500 which means that the equilibrium interest rate will be 5 percent.

b. The level of investment at the equilibrium interest rate.

Since we have 5% as the equilibrium interest rate which means that the investment at the equilibrium interest rate will be $20.

c. If we look at table we are going to see that the potential GDP of the amount of $330 and the actual GDP of the amount of $350 are beside the interest rate of 5 percent and we could as well see that actual GDP is lower than potential GDP which means that there is negative recessionary GDP gap.

Hence,

Recessionary GDP gap= Actual GDP - Potential GDP

Recessional GDP gap=Actual GDP $330- Potential GDP=-$20

Therefore-$20 will be the recessionary GDP gap.

d. In order for us to eliminate the recessionary gap, so that actual GDP amount can equal potential GDP , this means we have to increase the money supply to the amount of $600 which will inturn lead to an increase of $100

e. Calculation for the expenditure multiplier,

Expenditure multiplier=(Potential GDP $350-Actual GDP $330)/($20-$10)

Expenditure multiplier=$20/10

Expenditure multiplier=$2

Therefore the Expenditure multiplier will be $2

The question is incomplete as the table is not given.

In economics, demand and supply are the most important factors for any business to analyze the market. There is an inverse relationship between demand and supply. If the demand is high and supply is low then there will be higher prices of the goods.

The Moola central bank needs to change the supply of money by increasing $100 to close the output gap.

Reason:

In order to make the actual GDP amount to be equal to the potential GDP, that means by increasing the money supply of $600 will give the effect of $100 for covering the gap.

Answer:

Expected return on stock =14.1 0%

Explanation:

The Capital Asset pricing Model (CAPM) can be used to determined the expected return on the stock.  

According to the Capital Asset pricing Model the expected return on stock  is dependent on the level of reaction of the the stock to changes in the return on a market portfolio.

These changes are captured as systematic risk. The magnitude by which a stock is affected by systematic risk is measured by beta.  

Under CAPM, Ke= Rf + β(Rm-Rf)  

Rf-risk-free rate (treasury bill rate), β= Beta, Rm= Return on market, Ke-return on stock

Using this model, we can work out the return on stock as follows:

DATA

Ke-?

Rf- 4.5%

β-1.2 8

Rm- 12%

Ke = 4.5% + 1.28× (12-4.5)%=14.1 0%

Expected return on stock =14.1 0%
