Answer:
Break-even point in units= 1,248,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Unitary contribution margin= 9 - 7.35= $1.65
Fixed costs= $507,200
Desired profit= $1,552,000
To calculate the number of units to be sold, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= (507,200 + 1,552,000) / 1.65
Break-even point in units= 1,248,000
There is a zero coupon bond that sells for $4,550.90 and has a par value of $10,000. If the bond has 18 years to maturity, what is the yield to maturity'? Assume semiannual compounding.
A. 4.47%
B. 4.27%
C. 4.31%
D. 4.24%
E. 4.42%
Answer:
E. 4.42%
Explanation:
Calculation for the yield to maturity
First step is to calculate the Current price using this formula
The Current price=Par value/(1+yield to maturity/2)^(2*Time period)
$4,550.90=$10,000/(1+yield to maturity/2)^(2*18)
(1+yield to maturity/2)^36=($10,000/$4,550.90)
1+yield to maturity/2=($10,000/$4,550.90)^(1/36)
Now let calculate the yield to maturity
Yield to maturity/2=1.0221092-1
Yield to maturity=0.0221092*2
Yield to maturity=0.0442*100
Yield to maturity=4.42%
Therefore the Yield to maturity will be 4.42%

Barbara's Bakery purchased three new 7-year assets last year. She chose NOT to use Section 179 immediate expensing or take bonus depreciation. The furnishings were purchased for $15,000 in April, the equipment for $6,000 in July, and the appliances for $40,000 in November. What amount of depreciation expense is allowable in the current (second) year of ownership?
a. $16,806
b. $14,939
c. $16,163
d. $16,072
Answer:
b. $14,939
Explanation:
Property placed in service in 1st year:
Amount $
2nd quarter 15,000
3rd quarter 6,000
4th quarter 40,000
Total furnishing at beginning of 2nd Year $61,000
Half Year depreciation rate in 2nd Year as per Macrs table under "7 years life" assets, the applicable depreciation in the 2nd year is 24.49%
Thus, amount of depreciation expense is allowable in the current (second) year of ownership = $61,000 * 24.49% = $14938.90
Assume that the risk-free rate is 6% and the market risk premium is 8%.
What is the expected return for the overall stock market? Round your answer to two decimal places.
___________ %
What is the required rate of return on a stock with a beta of 1.9? Round your answer to two decimal places.
___________ %
Answer:
r or expected rate of return - market = 0.14 or 14%
r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.2120 or 21.20%
Explanation:
Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.
The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,
r = rRF + Beta * rpM
Where,
rRF is the risk free rate rpM is the market risk premium
Under CAPM, the assumption follows that the beta of the market is always equal to 1.
So, expected return on the stock market will be,
r or expected rate of return - market = 0.06 + 1 * 0.08
r or expected rate of return - market = 0.14 or 14%
The beta of the stock is given. We calculate the required rate of return on the stock to be,
r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.06 + 1.9 * 0.08
r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.2120 or 21.20%

Answer:
Widmer Company
a. Journal Entry:
Debit Payroll Expense $301,000
Credit Payroll Payable $218,728.50
Credit Payroll Tax Payable $82,271.50
To record the payroll for Week June 17.
b. Journal Entry to record payroll tax expense
Debit Payroll Tax Payable $82,271.50
Credit Cash $82,271.50
To record the payroll tax expense incurred for Week June 17.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Gross wages = $301,000
Period = Week ended June 17
Wages subject to social security tax = $270,900
Social security tax rate = 6%
Social security tax = 6% of $270,900 = $16,254
Medicare tax rate = 1.15%
Medicare tax = 1.15% of $301,000 = $3,461.50
State unemployment rate = 5.4%
Federal unemployment rate = 0.8%
Wages subject to federal and state unemployment taxes = $38,000
State unemployment tax = 5.4% of $38,000 = $2,052
Federal unemployment tax = 0.8% of $38,000 = $304
Federal tax withheld = $60,200
Gross wages = $301,000
Social security tax = $16,254
Medicare tax = $3,461.50
State unemployment tax = $2,052
Federal unemployment tax = $304
Federal tax withheld = $60,200
Total tax and deductions = $82,271.50
Net pay = $218,728.50

A company produces and sells 6,400 recliners each year. Each production run has a fixed cost of $400 and an additional cost of $35 per recliner. To store a recliner for a full year costs $8. What is the optimal number of recliners the company should make during each production run? Do not include units with your answer.
Answer:
800 Recliners
Explanation:
Calculation for the optimal number of recliners the company should make during each production run
Using this formula
Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) =√ [(2 D x S) / C]
Where,
Annual Demand (D) = 6,400 Recliners
Fixed Ordering Cost (S) = $400
Carrying cost per recliner (C) = $8
Let plug in the formula
Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)= √[(2 x 6,400 x $400) / $8]
Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)=√$5,120,000/$8
Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)=√$640,000
Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)= 800 Recliners
Therefore the optimal number of recliners the company should make during each production run will be 800 Recliners
The Fried Green Tomatoes Restaurant has increased its operating cycle from 97.4 days to 101.7 days while the cash cycle has decreased by 2.9 days. How have these changes affected the accounts payable period?
a. Decreased by 11 days
b. Decreased by 5 days
c. Decreased by 1 day
d. Increased by 5 day
e. Increased by 11 days
Answer:
Increased by 7.2 days
Explanation:
As in the question it is mentioned that the operating cycle is increased from 97.4 days to 101.7 days so the difference in days is
= 101.7 days - 97.4 days
= 4.3 days
And, the cash cycle is decreased by 2.9 days
So, the total number of days would be
= 4.3 days + 2.9 days
= 7.2 days
These have been the negative impacts

The next dividend payment by ASAP, Inc., will be $2.00 per share. The dividends are anticipated to maintain a 4.00% growth rate, forever. If ASAP stock currently sells for $14.75 per share, what is the required return?
Answer:
r = 0.175593 or 17.5593% rounded off to 17.56%
Explanation:
Using the constant growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock today. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under this model is,
P0 = D1 / (r - g)
Where,
D1 is dividend expected for the next period /year g is the growth rate r is the required rate of return
Plugging in the values for D1, P0 and g, we can calculate the value of r to be,
14.75 = 2 / (r - 0.04)
14.75 * (r - 0.04) = 2
14.75r - 0.59 = 2
14.75r = 2 + 0.59
r = 2.59 / 14.75
r = 0.175593 or 17.5593% rounded off to 17.56%

Crane Corp. had total variable costs of $281,400, total fixed costs of $130,350, and total revenues of $420,000. Compute the required sales in dollars to break even.
Answer:required sales to break even=$395,000
Explanation:
Break Even Sales = Fixed Expenses / Contribution Margin
But
Fixed Costs /Expenses is given as $130,350
And
Contribution Margin Ratio is solved as (Total Revenue - Variable Cost) / Total Revenue x 100
= ($420,000-$281,400)/ $420,000 x 100
=0.33 x 100
= 33%
Break Even Sales = $130,350/33%

Executives at worldcom committed an $11 billion fraud by capitalizing costs that should have been expensed. What was the effect of this fraud on worldcom's income statement?
Answer:
net income was too high, expenses were too low
Explanation:
From the question, we are told about how Executives at worldcom committed an $11 billion fraud by capitalizing costs that should have been expensed. In this case the effect of this fraud on worldcom's income statement is that net income was too high, expenses were too low. An income statement which can also be regarded as "profit and loss" account is a financial statement that gives the revenue as well as the expenses of a company at a particular period, so if the Executive capitalize costs that should have been expensed then it equates to the net income been too high while expenses were too low.

On January 1 a man deposit $5000 in a credit union that pays 8% interest, compounded annually. He wishes to withdraw all the money in five equal end-of-years sums, beginning December 31st of the first year. How much should he withdraw each year?
Answer:
he should withdraw $1,252.5 each year.
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Given that
Initial deposit (P) = $5,000
n = 5
i = 8%
Now the withdrawal amount is
AW = P(A/P, i, n)
= $5,000 (A/P, 8%, 5)
= $5,000(0.2505)
= $1,252.5
Therefore, he should withdraw $1,252.5 each year.
We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

Suppose US$1 = €0.7809 in New York and US$1 = €0.7793 in Paris. How can foreign exchange traders profit from these exchange rates? What actions can they take that may result in the same dollar/euro exchange rate in both New York and Paris? Please limit your response to one or two reasonably-sized paragraphs.
Answer:
If a Dollar is worth $ 0.7809 Euros in New York, and $ 0.7793 Euros in Paris, the way in which foreign exchange traders could obtain an economic profit through this difference would be by buying Euros in Paris, and selling them again in New York. Thus, they would obtain $ 0.016 of profit for each Euro traded in the market, with which, for example, if $ 1,000,000 of Euros were traded, a total profit of $ 16,000 would be obtained. In turn, trading the same amount in both Paris and New York, traders would not make any profit, equating both exchange rates.
You own a stock portfolio invested 40 percent in Stock Q, 25 percent in Stock R, 20 percent in Stock S, and 15 percent in Stock T. The betas for these four stocks are .93, 1.10, 1.10, and 1.28, respectively. What is the portfolio beta? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
the portfolio beta is 1.06
Explanation:
The computation of the portfolio beta is shown below:
The Beta of the Portfolio is
= Stock Q Weight × Beta of Stock Q + Stock R Weight × Beta of Stock R + Stock S Weight × Beta of Stock S + Stock T Weight × Beta of Stock T
= 0.93 × 0.4 + 1.1 × 0.25 + 1.1 × 0.2 + 1.28 × 0.15
= 1.06
