Answer:
The expected return = 10.739.
Explanation:
Given risk-free rate of return = 2.3 per cent
Market expected return = 12 percent
The value of beta = 0.87
Use the below formula to find the expected return.
The expected return = Risk free rate of return + Beta × (Market expected return - risk free rate of return)
The expected return = 2.3 + 0.87 (12 – 2.3)
The expected return = 10.739
A gift-wrapping business is staffed by Kaitlyn, Rob, Sam, Susan and Sarah. The production by each of the staff members for an average eight-hour work day is as follows:
Assume that the standard or normal productivity in the organization is 10 minutes per package. What is Kaitlyn's efficiency?
Kaitlyn Rob Sam Susan Sarah
72 packages 55 packages 52 packages 52 packages 48 packages
a. 0.75 (75%)
b. 1.50(150%)
c. 9.0 packages per hour
d. 1.50 packages per hour
e. 9.0 minutes per package
Answer:
b. 1.50(150%)
Explanation:
Given that, the standard time per packages is 10 minutes
Then, the total time taken in eight hour shift is 8 * 60 = 480 minutes
The standard output = Total time taken / Standard time = 480/10 = 48 packages
Therefore, the efficiency of Kaitlyn = Kaitlyn's Output / Standard output
=72 / 48
= 1.5
Hence, the answer is 150% or 1.5
Copy equipment was acquired at the beginning of the year at a cost of $36,600 that has an estimated residual value of $3,300 and an estimated useful life of 5 years. It is estimated that the machine will output an estimated 1,110,000 copies. This year, 252,000 copies were made. a. Determine the depreciable cost. $ 33,300 b. Determine the depreciation rate. $ per copy c. Determine the units-of-output depreciation for the year. $
Answer:
a. $33,300
b. $0.03 per copy
c. $7,560
Explanation:
Units of Output = (Cost - Residual Value) × ( Period`s Production / Total Expected Production)
Depreciable Cost = Cost - Residual Value
= $36,600 - $3,300
= $33,300
Depreciation Rate = Depreciable cost ÷ Expected Production
= $33,300 ÷ 1,110,000 copies
= $0.03 per copy
Depreciation for the year = Depreciation Rate × Period`s Production
= $0.03 × 252,000 copies
= $7,560

ZZZ-Best, Inc. recently issued $65 par value preferred stock that pays an annual dividend of $17. If the stock is currently selling for $76, what is the expected return of this preferred stock?
Answer:
r = 0.22368 or 22.368% rounded off to 22.37%
Explanation:
The expected or required rate of return on a preferred stock is the return provided by the stock in terms of dividend as a proportion of the current market price. The expected return on a preferred stock can be calculated as follows,
r = Dividend / current market price
r = 17 / 76
r = 0.22368 or 22.368% rounded off to 22.37%
Informal groups: Group of answer choices exist primarily for the benefit of their members. perform routine organizational goals. perform uncommon tasks of the organization. always have a high level of interdependence. are initiated by the organization for special purposes.
Answer:
exist primarily for the benefit of their members.
Explanation:
Informal groups in an organization are created when individuals form a bond based on the experience that they share, they appear from friendship and not by rules inside the company but they influence how people interact and how they perform their job. Also, companies promote the apperance of these groups because they help people interact and improve their communication. According to that, the answer is that informal groups exist primarily for the benefit of their members as they are created by the friendship between employees and not by the company.
The other options are not right because informal groups don't perform routine organizational goals or uncommon tasks of the organization, they don't have a high level of interdependence and they are not initiated by the organization for special purposes because they are created by the employees and are not part of the company's structure.

Compromising is most likely the best approach to conflict management when opponents with equal power are committed to mutually exclusive goals.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
true
Explanation:
when two opponents with equal power are committed to mutually exclusive goals then they have to reach a compromise.in a compromise, either of these two parties having a conflict would be willing to give up something to reach an agreement. The needs of both sides would be balanced, as both sides would have to make sacrifices. This makes it a lose-lose approach to conflict resolution for either parties involved. A compromise has to be reached for important goals to be achieved.
Explain how to use the decision trees and Monte Carlo analysis for quantifying risk. Give an example of how you would use each technique on an IT project.
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
Decision Tree Analysis is a form or type of quantitative risk assessment tool and techniques that involves a diagram that indicates the significances of choosing one or other alternatives.
In other words, the purpose of the tool is to assist you to select between several courses of action.
For example, lines are drawn towards the right for each possible solution, and then the solution is written along the line. Then evaluation of each alternative can be easily considered.
On the other hand, Monte Carlo Analysis is also a form or type of quantitative risk assessment tools and techniques that utilizes optimistic, most probable, and cynical estimates to infer the total project cost and project completion dates.
For example, an estimate of the probability of completing a project at a cost of $100M can be carried out using Monte Carlo Analysis

The common stock of Eddie's Engines, Inc., sells for $37.13 a share. The stock is expected to pay a dividend of $3.10 per share next year. Eddie's has established a pattern of increasing their dividends by 5.2 percent annually and expects to continue doing so. What is the market rate of return on this stock?
Answer:
13.55%
Explanation:
The common stock of Eddies engines is sold at $37.13 per share
The stock is expected to make a payment of $3.10 per share next year
The growth rate is 5.2%
Therefore, the market rate of return on the stock can be calculated as follows
Market rate of return= Next dividend payment/stock price × growth rate
= $3.10/$37.13 + 5.2%
= 0.0835×100 + 5.2%
= 8.35%+5.2%
= 13.55%
Hence the market rate of return on this stock is 13.55%
Your parents put $300 into an account paying 11 percent interest for you when you were ten. Ten years later they tell you that you can take the money out of the account. What is the balance to the nearest penny
Answer:
The balance in the account = $851.8
Explanation:
The future value of a lump sum is the amount expected at a future date when a sum of money is invested today at a particular rate of interest for certain number of years
.
This implies compounding the initial amount invested ($300) at the given interest rate(11%) for 10 years.This will be done as follows:
FV = PV × (1+r)^(n)
FV-Future value
r- rate of return per period
n- Number of period
PV - 300
r-11%
DATA
FV- ?
PV - 300
n- 10
FV= 300 × 1.11^10 = 851.83
The balance in the account = $851.8
Conventional wisdom says one should measure a manager's investment performance over an entire market cycle. What arguments support this contention? What arguments contradict it?
Answer:
In every form of analysis, it is always safer to take a macro or holistic view of the situation. This is true for the investment performance of a manager. One investment decision that went right does not suffice to classify an investment portfolio manager as proficient, neither is one that went south enough to tag him deficient.
The forecasting ability of managers, on the balance of probability, will vary for different cases, with a helicopter view of providing a more accurate measure of their performance.
However, if it was possible to analyse the market for volatility and adjust our forecasts it becomes unnecessary to look at and analyse all the information from a 12-month cycle before coming to terms about the performance of the manager.

Bramble Corp. purchased equipment for $48800. Sales tax on the purchase was $2928. Other costs incurred were freight charges of $732, repairs of $427 for damage during installation, and installation costs of $813. What is the cost of the equipment
Answer:
Cost of equipment = $52,887
Explanation:
According to International Accounting Standards (IAS) 16, property plants and equipment, the cost of land includes all of the cost necessary to bring and make it ready for the intended use.
These costs include purchase cost, fees and commission associated with the purchase transaction.
Here in this question the installation cost, sales taxes and repairs slab all fall within the definition of IAS 16
Hence cost of the equipment
48,800 + 2,928 + 732 + 427 = $52,887
Cost of equipment = $52,887
A financial advisor informs a client that the expected return on a portfolio is 8% with a standard deviation of 12%. There is a 25% chance the return will be negative and a 15% chance that the return would be above 16%. Does her assessment follow a normal distribution? Calculate the probabilities for a normal distribution and compare.
Answer:
A) The assessment does not follow a normal distribution
B ) P(r<0) = 0.2546 ( from standard normal table ), P( r > 0.16 ) ≠ 0.15
Explanation:
Expected return on portfolio E (r) = 8%
Standard deviation (STD) = 12%
chances of Negative return P(r < 0 ) = 25%
calculate the probabilities for a normal distribution
E (r) = 0.08 , STD = 0.12, P(r < 0 ) = 0.25
P( r > 0.16 ) = 0.15
calculating the value of the probability P(r < 0 )
P(r < 0 ) = P [tex](Z < \frac{0-E(r)}{STD} )[/tex]
= P ( Z < [tex]\frac{0-0.08}{0.12}[/tex] )
= P ( Z < - 0.667 )
P(r<0) = 0.2546 ( from standard normal table )
calculating the value of the probability P( r > 0.16 )
P( r > 0.16 ) = [tex]P ( Z > \frac{0.16- E(r)}{STD})[/tex]
= P ( Z > [tex]\frac{0.16-0.08}{0.12}[/tex] )
= P ( Z > 0.667 )
to compare if p(r>0.16 ) is = 0.15
P(R > 0.16 ) = 1 - P ( Z < 0.667 )
= 1 - 0.7454 ( value from standard normal table )
= 0.2546
hence P( r > 0.16 ) ≠ 0.15
The assessment does not follow a normal distribution

Determine the value-added, non-value-added, and total lead times, and the value-added ratio under the present and proposed production approaches. If required, round percentages to one decimal place. Present Approach Proposed Approach Value-added time 23 min 23 min Non-value-added time 1,582 min 105 min Total lead time 1,605 min 1,605 min Value-added ratio (as a percent) 14 % 21 %
Answer:
Hello some parts of your question is missing attached below is the missing part
Answer : value added times : 30 minutes , 30 minutes
non-value added times: 1210 minutes, 130 minutes
Total lead times : 1240 minutes, 160 minutes
value added time as a ratio: 2.4%, 18.8%
Explanation:
Given data:
production batch sizes = 40 units
process step 1 = 6 minutes
process step 2 = 10 minutes
process step 3 = 6 minutes
process step 4 = 8 minutes
Determining : The value added, non-value added , total lead times and value added ratio under the present and proposed production approaches
UNDER PRESENT PRODUCTION APPROACH
Th value added time:
= summation of all process times = (6+10+6+8) = 30 minutes
Non-value added time:
= Value added time *(Batch size -1) + move time between each step
= 30*39+8*5
= 1170 +40 = 1210 minutes
total lead time :
= value added time + non-value added time
= 30 + 1210 = 1240 minutes
value added time as a percentage/ratio
(value added time / total lead time) * 100
= 30 / 1240 * 100 = 2.4%
UNDER PROPOSED PRODUCTION APPROACH
value added time :
= summation of all process times = (6+10+6+8) = 30 minutes
Non-value added time :
= Value added time *(Batch size -1) + time between each step
= 30*4+2*5 = 120 + 10 = 130 mins
total lead time :
= value added time + non-value added time = 30 +130 = 160 mins
value added time as a percentage/ratio:
(value added time / total lead time ) * 100
= (30 / 160) * 100 = 18.8%

Midyear on July 31st, the Digby Corporation's balance sheet reported: Total Assets of $205.498 million Total Common Stock of $6.350 million Cash of $10.050 million Retained Earnings of $44.117 million. What were the Digby Corporation's total liabilities?
a) $165.081 million.
b) $144.981 million.
c) $155.031 million.
d) $161.381 million.
Answer:
The value of total liabilities is $155.031 million and option c is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The basic accounting equation states that the total value of assets is always equal to the sum of the total value of liabilities and the total value of equity.
Thus, we can say that,
Total Assets = Total Liabilities + Total Equity
The equity part can contain various components. In the given question it has two components namely Common Stock and retained earnings.
205.498 = Total Liabilities + (6.350 + 44.117)
205.498 = Total Liabilities + 50.467
205.498 - 50.467 = Total Liabilities
Total Liabilities = $155.031

DPMO stands for:______
a) Defects Per Million Opportunity
b) Defectives Per Million Opportunity
c) Data Per Million Opportunity
d) all of the above
e) none of the above
Answer:
a) Defects Per Million Opportunity
Explanation:
DPMO is an acronym which stands for Defects Per Million Opportunity. Defects per Million Opportunities refers to a standard metric which represents the number of defects in a process per one million opportunities.
In order to calculate the DPMO, we divide the number of defects by the number of opportunities and then multiply by a million.
Additionally, when a quality characteristics or properties do not tally with a standard or specifications it is generally referred to as a defect.
Hence, in a six sigma approach to quality or level of performance, the defects per million opportunities (DPMO) is 3.4.

Badger Corporation declared a stock distribution to all shareholders of record on March 25 of this year. Shareholders will receive one share of Badger stock for each 10 shares of stock they already own. Madison Cheesehead owns 1,000 shares of Badger stock with a tax basis of $100 per share. The fair market value of the Badger stock was $110 per share on March 25 of this year.Required:a. What amount of taxable dividend income, if any, does Madison recognize in 2009? b. What is Madison's income tax basis in her new and existing stock in Badger Corporation, assuming the distribution is non-taxable? c. How would you answer questions a and b if Madison was offered the choice between 1 share of stock in Badger for each 10 shares she owned or $100 cash for each 10 shares she owned in Badger?
Answer:
a. What amount of taxable dividend income, if any, does Madison recognize in 2009?
Madison doesn't have to recognize any income because she is not getting any. Only after Madison decides to sell his stocks will he recognize any taxable income if she makes a gain.
b. What is Madison's income tax basis in her new and existing stock in Badger Corporation, assuming the distribution is non-taxable?
Madison current basis is $100 per stock, and after the stock dividend it will be $100 / 1.1 = $90.91 per stock
c. How would you answer questions a and b if Madison was offered the choice between 1 share of stock in Badger for each 10 shares she owned or $100 cash for each 10 shares she owned in Badger?
then the cash dividend would be $10 per stock, which results in $10 x 1,000 = $10,000 taxable income. Her basis in the stock will remain not change.
Assume MIX Inc. has sales volume of $1,198,000 for two products with May sales and contribution margin ratios as follows:
Product A: Sales $466,000; Contribution Margin Ratio 30%
Product B: Sales $732,000; Contribution Margin Ratio 60%
Required: Assume MIX's fixed expenses are $302,000. Calculate the May total contribution margin, operating income, average contribution margin ratio, and breakeven sales volume. (Round "Average contribution margin ratio" answer to 2 decimal places. Round up "Breakeven sales volume" answer to nearest whole dollar.)
Total contribution margin
Operating income
Average contribution margin ratio
Breakeven sales volume
Answer:
total contribution margin = $579,000
operating income = $277,000
average contribution margin ratio = 48.33%
break even sales volume = $624,870.68
Explanation:
Product A: Sales $466,000; Contribution Margin Ratio 30%
Product B: Sales $732,000; Contribution Margin Ratio 60%
Mix's fixed expenses are $302,000
total contribution margin = ($466,000 x 30%) + ($732,000 x 60%) = $139,800 + $439,200 = $579,000
weighted contribution margin = (466/1198 x 30%) + (732/1198 x 60%) = 11.67% + 36.66% = 48.33%
break even sales volume = $302,000 / 48.33% = $624,870.68
operating income = $579,000 - $302,000 = $277,000
