Answers

Answer 1

The amount of FCFE per share for the year 2018 is $2.40.

What is the FCFE per share for the year 2018?

To calculate the FCFE per share for the year 2018, we need to determine the free cash flow to equity (FCFE) and divide it by the number of common shares outstanding. FCFE represents the cash flow available to the company's equity shareholders after deducting capital expenditures, depreciation, working capital changes, and net debt.

First, we calculate the FCFE for 2018 by taking net income ($75) and adjusting for non-cash expenses (depreciation: $35), changes in working capital ($10 increase in current assets - $5 increase in current liabilities), and net debt ($80 increase in long-term debt). This results in an FCFE of $115.Next, we divide the FCFE by the number of common shares outstanding (50) to obtain the FCFE per share for 2018, which is $2.40.

a. Consider the following production function q = K¹/2 + ¹/2. b. Solve for the conditional demands for L and K. c. Find the cost function. d. Find the short-run supply function.

Answers

The production function is given by,q = K¹/2 + L¹/2Here, q represents output, K represents the quantity of capital, and L represents the quantity of labor.

The conditional demands for L and K are given by the following expressions; L = (q/2)²K = (q/2)²c. The cost function is given by; C = w L + r K where C represents the cost, w represents the wage rate, L represents the quantity of labor, r represents the rental rate of capital, and K represents the quantity of capital. Using the conditional demands for L and K obtained in part (b), we can rewrite the cost function as; C = w [(q/2)²] + r [(q/2)²]C = [(w + r)/4]q²d.

The short-run supply function is obtained by finding the marginal cost function, setting it equal to the market price, and solving for the output level. Therefore; MC = (∂C/∂q) = (q/2)(w + r)P = MC(Where P is the market price of the output)Thus; P = (q/2)(w + r)q = 2P/(w + r)The short-run supply function is obtained by substituting the value of q in the production function; q = K¹/2 + L¹/2q = (K/2)¹/2 + (L/2)¹/2K = [q²/4](2/r) = (1/2r)q²L = [q²/4](2/w) = (1/2w)q²Therefore, the short-run supply function is given by; q = min [(1/2r)q², (1/2w)q²]q = [2/(w + r)]P.

WACC: Determine the weighted average cost of capital for a firm given the following information: (10 pts.) A corporation has 20,000 bonds outstanding with a 8% annual coupon rate, 12 years to maturity, a $1,000 face value, and a $1,100 market price. Assume semiannual coupon payments. The company's 60,000 shares of preferred stock pay a $1.50 annual dividend, and sell for $20 per share. The company's 1,200,000 shares of common stock sell for $25 per share and have a beta of 1.15. The risk-free rate is 3%, and the market return is 13%. Assuming a 21% tax rate, what is the company's WACC? WACC = (E/V) x R4+ (P/V) x Rp + (D/V) x R. (1-T)

Answers

To calculate the weighted average cost of capital (WACC), we need to determine the cost of each component of the company's capital structure and weight them according to their respective proportions.

Given:

Bonds:

Number of bonds (N) = 20,000

Annual coupon rate (C) = 8% (coupon payment as a percentage of face value)

Years to maturity (T) = 12 years

Face value (F) = $1,000

Market price (P) = $1,100

Preferred Stock:

Number of shares (N) = 60,000

Dividend per share (D) = $1.50

Market price (P) = $20

Common Stock:

Number of shares (N) = 1,200,000

Market price (P) = $25

Beta (β) = 1.15

Risk-free rate (Rf) = 3%

Market return (Rm) = 13%

Tax rate (T) = 21%

First, we calculate the cost of debt:

Coupon payment per bond (C) = 8% * $1,000 / 2 = $40 (since it is a semiannual coupon payment)

Current yield to maturity (YTM) = ($40 / $1,100) * 2 = 0.0727 or 7.27%

After-tax cost of debt (Rd) = YTM * (1 - Tax rate) = 0.0727 * (1 - 0.21) = 0.0575 or 5.75%

Next, we calculate the cost of preferred stock:

Dividend per share (D) = $1.50

Market price per share (P) = $20

Cost of preferred stock (Rp) = D / P = $1.50 / $20 = 0.075 or 7.5%

Finally, we calculate the cost of equity using the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM):

Risk-free rate (Rf) = 3%

Market return (Rm) = 13%

Beta (β) = 1.15

Cost of equity (Re) = Rf + β * (Rm - Rf) = 0.03 + 1.15 * (0.13 - 0.03) = 0.1245 or 12.45%

Now we can calculate the WACC:

Weight of debt (D/V) = (20,000 * $1,000) / ($20 * 60,000 + $25 * 1,200,000 + $20 * 60,000) = 0.115

Weight of preferred stock (P/V) = ($20 * 60,000) / ($20 * 60,000 + $25 * 1,200,000 + $20 * 60,000) = 0.022

Weight of common stock (E/V) = ($25 * 1,200,000) / ($20 * 60,000 + $25 * 1,200,000 + $20 * 60,000) = 0.863

WACC = (E/V) * Re + (P/V) * Rp + (D/V) * Rd * (1 - T)

WACC = 0.863 * 0.1245 + 0.022 * 0.075 + 0.115 * 0.0575 * (1 - 0.21)

WACC ≈ 0.107 + 0.002 + 0.0523

WACC ≈ 0.1613 or 16.13%

Therefore, the company's weighted

average cost of capital (WACC) is approximately 16.13%.

Answers

The coupon rate on the bond must be 4.96%

Given,Face value of bond= $1000

Number of years to maturity=11 years

Semiannual payments= 2 (i.e., every six months

)Price of the bond=$1196.50

Yield to Maturity (YTM) = 6%

First, let us find out the periodic payments for the bond.

Annual coupon payments=Coupon rate * face value

                                          = C * $1000,

where C is the annual coupon rate.

Payment every six months=C/2 * $1000

                                           = $5C * $1000

                                           = 2 * $5C

                                           = $10C

Now, the current price of the bond is given by,

PV of all future cash flows= Payment every six months / (1+ YTM/2) + Payment every six months / (1+ YTM/2)2+ Payment every six months / (1+ YTM/2)3+... + Payment every six months + Face value / (1+ YTM/2)n

Since the bond makes semi-annual payments, we have n = 2 * 11 = 22.

Therefore, the current price of the bond is,

$1196.50 = $10C / (1+ 0.06/2) + $10C / (1+ 0.06/2)2+ $10C / (1+ 0.06/2)3+... + $10C + $1000 / (1+ 0.06/2)22

Using financial calculator or Excel solver function,

we get,Coupon rate (C) = 4.96% approximately.

Thus, the coupon rate on the bond must be 4.96%.

a.) $5,000

b.) $7,000

c.) $8,000

d.) $10,000

e.) $13,000

Answers

To determine Greg's capital loss carryover to 2021, we need to calculate the allowable capital loss deduction for the current year and then carry over any unused losses to the next year.

In 2020, Greg had short-term capital losses of $1,000 and long-term capital losses of $12,000. The maximum allowable capital loss deduction for the year is $3,000 for individuals ($1,500 for married individuals filing separately).

Since Greg's total capital losses exceed the maximum allowable deduction, we can deduct the maximum allowable amount and carry over the remaining losses to the next year.

First, we deduct the maximum allowable capital loss deduction from Greg's total capital losses:

$1,000 (short-term) + $12,000 (long-term) = $13,000

Maximum allowable deduction: $3,000

$13,000 - $3,000 = $10,000

Therefore, Greg's capital loss carryover to 2021 is $10,000.

Answers

False. If X1 is an inferior good and its price increases, the substitution effect would typically cause the quantity of X1 purchased to increase rather than decrease. This is because as the price of X1 increases, consumers tend to switch to relatively cheaper substitute goods, leading to a decrease in the consumption of X1.

The income effect, on the other hand, may result in a decrease in the quantity of X1 purchased due to the decrease in purchasing power resulting from the price increase.

However, the substitution effect generally dominates for inferior goods, leading to an overall increase in the quantity demanded of the inferior good when its price rises.

walt jr. is composing a song and wants to protect it from being copied. which intellectual property law would best protect walt jr's song?

Answers

Walt Jr. is composing a song and wants to protect it from being copied. Copyright Law would best protect Walt Jr.'s song.

Copyright law is a type of intellectual property law that protects original works of authorship, such as books, music, movies, and software. It grants exclusive rights to the creator of an original work and provides legal protection against unauthorized copying, distribution, and public performance of the work.

The protection provided by copyright law is automatic, meaning that as soon as the work is created, it is automatically protected. Copyright protection provides the owner with a bundle of exclusive rights, including the right to reproduce, distribute, and display the work. The term of protection for copyrighted work varies depending on the type of work. Generally, the term lasts for the life of the author plus a certain number of years after their death.

By obtaining copyright protection, Walt Jr. would have the exclusive right to reproduce his song, create derivative works based on it, distribute copies of it, and publicly perform or display it. This would enable him to control the use of his song and take legal action against anyone who infringes on his rights by copying or using his work without permission.

To obtain copyright protection, Walt Jr. should consider registering his song with the appropriate copyright office in his country. While copyright protection generally exists automatically upon the creation of an original work, registering the copyright provides additional legal benefits and evidence of ownership, making it easier to enforce his rights in case of infringement.

It's worth noting that copyright protection typically covers the expression of ideas, not the underlying concepts or facts. So, if Walt Jr.'s song includes unique lyrics, melody, and arrangement, copyright law would be the most suitable intellectual property law to protect his creation.

Group of answer choices

Regular C corporations cannot offset passive losses against active income.

Personal service corporations cannot offset passive losses against active income and portfolio income.

Closely-held corporations cannot offset passive losses against portfolio income.

Closely-held corporations can offset passive losses against active income.

Answers

The statement that is false is: Closely-held corporations cannot offset passive losses against portfolio income (Option C)..

Closely-held corporations are allowed to offset passive losses against active income, which means they can use passive losses to reduce the taxes owed on their active business income. However, they cannot offset passive losses against portfolio income, such as interest, dividends, or capital gains from investments. This restriction is specific to closely-held corporations and does not apply to regular C corporations, which can offset passive losses against active income. Personal service corporations also cannot offset passive losses against active income and portfolio income. Therefore, the false statement is that closely-held corporations cannot offset passive losses against portfolio income.

If a put option is exercised, the writer of the option will ____ the underlying asset at the ____.

a. buy; strike price

b. sell; strike price

c. buy; stock market price

d. sell; stock market price

e. buy; put premium

Answers

The writer of the put option will be required to purchase the underlying asset at the strike price when a put option is exercised. An option contract allows the owner the right, but not the obligation to buy or sell the underlying asset at a specific price (strike price) on or before a certain date.

A put option is a financial contract between two parties where the buyer has the right, but not the obligation, to sell an agreed-upon quantity of a financial asset at a predetermined price (strike price) to the option seller on or before a specific date.A put option provides protection to the holder against the drop in the underlying asset's value.

The writer (seller) of the put option has the obligation to buy the underlying asset at the strike price if the option is exercised. If the stock price drops below the strike price, the option owner would likely exercise the option. When this happens, the option seller will be forced to buy the stock from the owner at the strike price.In conclusion, if the put option is exercised, the writer (seller) of the option will have to buy the underlying asset at the strike price.

If a tax of $1 a can is imposed on the buyers of sugary drinks, the demand for sugary drinks___ and the price that buyers pay.
A. decreases; rises by more than $1 a can
B. doesn't change; doesn't change
C. decreases; rises by less than $1 a can
D. doesn't change; rises by $1 a can

Answers

If a tax of $1 a can is imposed on the buyers of sugary drinks, the demand for sugary drinks decreases and the price that buyers pay rises by less than $1 a can. Correct option is C.

An excise tax is the tax imposed on a particular commodity by the government. The excise tax can be paid by the manufacturer or producer of the commodity or passed on to the consumer. In this case, a tax of $1 a can is imposed on the buyers of sugary drinks.

The tax falls on the buyers or consumers, and this means that the tax is included in the price paid by the buyers. The imposition of the tax means that the price paid by the buyers of sugary drinks increases. The increase in the price paid by buyers is by an amount that is less than $1 a can.

The exact amount by which the price increases will depend on the price elasticity of demand for sugary drinks. The higher the price elasticity of demand for sugary drinks, the lower the increase in the price paid by buyers. The imposition of a tax on sugary drinks reduces the demand for sugary drinks.

Consumers are likely to switch to substitutes like water, fruit juice, or tea. The extent to which the demand for sugary drinks reduces will depend on the price elasticity of demand for sugary drinks. The higher the price elasticity of demand for sugary drinks, the greater the reduction in the quantity of sugary drinks demanded by consumers.

Therefore, the demand for sugary drinks decreases and the price that buyers pay increases by less than $1 a can. The answer is option C.

your thrift account is expected to generate a $2,000 profit at the end of year 1, and profit will increase by 8% per year through year 5. If you can earn 12% annual interest compounded annually, what is the present value of all your profits over the next 5 years? SHOW A "ROUGH" CASH FLOW DIAGRAM

Answers

The present value of all your profits over the next 5 years is approximately $8,814.88. To calculate the present value of all your profits over the next 5 years, we need to discount each year's profit back to the present using the annual interest rate of 12% compounded annually.

Here is the cash flow diagram representing the profits over the next 5 years:

Year 1: $2,000

Year 2: $2,000 * (1 + 8%) = $2,160

Year 3: $2,160 * (1 + 8%) = $2,332.80

Year 4: $2,332.80 * (1 + 8%) = $2,519.46

Year 5: $2,519.46 * (1 + 8%) = $2,721.33

To calculate the present value, we will discount each year's profit back to the present. The formula to calculate the present value of a future cash flow is:

Present Value = Cash Flow / (1 + Interest Rate)^n where n is the number of years.

Calculating the present value for each year:

PV1 = $2,000 / (1 + 12%)^1 = $1,785.71

PV2 = $2,160 / (1 + 12%)^2 = $1,773.62

PV3 = $2,332.80 / (1 + 12%)^3 = $1,762.27

PV4 = $2,519.46 / (1 + 12%)^4 = $1,751.63

PV5 = $2,721.33 / (1 + 12%)^5 = $1,741.65

The present value of all your profits over the next 5 years is the sum of the present values:

Present Value = PV1 + PV2 + PV3 + PV4 + PV5

Present Value = $1,785.71 + $1,773.62 + $1,762.27 + $1,751.63 + $1,741.65

Present Value = $8,814.88

Therefore, the present value of all your profits over the next 5 years is approximately $8,814.88.

Job 6 and Job 7 were started in June; Job 6 was finished in June, and Job 7 is to be completed in July.
Overhead cost is applied with a predetermined rate based on direct labor cost. The predetermined overhead rate did not change across these months.
Problem 19-1A (Algo) Part 2
2. What is the total cost of direct labor used in June?

Answers

The total cost of direct labor used in June is $17,200.

To determine the total cost of direct labor used in June, we need to sum up the direct labor costs for Job 6 and Job 7.

From the given information, the direct labor cost for Job 6 is $17,200, and Job 7 is not yet completed, so there is no direct labor cost for Job 7 in June.

Therefore, the total cost of direct labor used in June is $17,200.

It's important to note that the direct labor cost for Job 5 is not included in the total for June because it was assigned to Job 5 in May, not June. We are specifically calculating the direct labor cost used in June, so only the direct labor costs for jobs started and completed in June are considered.

Direct labor cost represents the wages and salaries paid to the workers directly involved in the production of goods or services. It is an essential component of the total manufacturing cost and is used to calculate the overall cost of production for a specific period.

In this case, the total direct labor cost used in June provides information about the labor expenses incurred during that month. It is an important factor in evaluating the profitability and efficiency of production operations for Ace Roofers in June.

O None of the other alternatives are correct O lower,higher

Answers

When a per-unit tax is imposed on the sale of a product of a uniform or single-price monopolist with a linear downward-sloping demand curve and an MC that is upward or downward-sloping, the new equilibrium price will be higher than the old equilibrium price, and the new equilibrium quantity will be lower than the old equilibrium quantity.

Equilibrium refers to a state of balance. When supply equals demand, the economy is in equilibrium. At equilibrium, the market is at rest, with no incentives for buyers or sellers to alter their buying or selling habits. The diagram below illustrates the new equilibrium position after the imposition of the per-unit tax: Equilibrium and per-unit tax:In the above graph, the monopolist's demand curve has a linear downward slope, and the MC curve is upward sloping. The monopolist's profit-maximizing price and quantity would be Q1 and P1 before the per unit tax is imposed. On the demand curve, the new equilibrium price after the imposition of a per unit tax is represented by P2. The tax, which is the distance between P2 and P1, will be paid entirely by the buyer since the monopolist's marginal cost has not altered.

The monopolist's new revenue is the region ABCK, which is equal to the amount paid by the buyer plus the tax paid to the government. When the monopolist imposes the tax, the price increases from P1 to P2. As a result, the quantity demanded decreases from Q1 to Q2. This, in turn, lowers the equilibrium quantity, resulting in a lower equilibrium quantity than the original one.

On January 1, you sold short one round lot (that is, 100 shares) of Lowe's stock at $21 per share. On March 1, a dividend of $3 per share was paid. On April 1, you covered the short sale by buying the stock at a price of $15 per share. You paid 50 cents per share in commissions for each transaction. a. What is the proceeds from the short sale (net of commission)? b. What is the dividend paymeny c. What is the total cost, including commission, if you have to cover the short sale by buying the stock at a price of $15 per share? d. What is the value of your account on April 1?

Answers

a. The proceeds from the short sale (net of commission) amount to $2,099.50. b. The dividend payment received is $300. c. The total cost, including commission, to cover the short sale by buying the stock at a price of $15 per share is $1,551.50. d. The value of the account on April 1 is $547.

a. To calculate the proceeds from the short sale (net of commission), we start with the sale price of $21 per share. Since you sold 100 shares, the total sale amount is $2,100. Subtracting the commission of $0.50 per share (100 shares * $0.50 = $50), the net proceeds amount to $2,050. Therefore, the proceeds from the short sale (net of commission) are $2,099.50 ($2,050 + $49.50).

b. The dividend payment received is given as $3 per share, and since you sold 100 shares short, the dividend payment amounts to $300 ($3 * 100).

c. To calculate the total cost, including commission, to cover the short sale by buying the stock at $15 per share, we multiply the buy price by the number of shares, which gives $1,500 (100 shares * $15). Adding the commission of $0.50 per share for the buy transaction (100 shares * $0.50 = $50), the total cost including commission is $1,550. Therefore, the total cost, including commission, to cover the short sale is $1,551.50 ($1,550 + $1).

d. The value of the account on April 1 can be calculated by subtracting the total cost, including commission, from the proceeds from the short sale. Therefore, the value of the account on April 1 is $547 ($2,099.50 - $1,551.50).

Answers

After reading the article, "American Shoemakers", by John Commons. The transition from a society where itinerants and bespoke shops were the most common form of production to a society where most production was in a factory setting is as follows: Before the emergence of shoe factories, the majority of shoe production was conducted by itinerants and bespoke shops. The itinerants would go from place to place to offer their services to people who needed shoes made, while the bespoke shops would create shoes in their shops as per the clients’ specifications. However, with the passage of time and the arrival of the Industrial Revolution, shoe factories started to emerge. They were typically located in urban areas and produced shoes on a large scale using machines. The factories could now produce shoes much more rapidly than traditional methods. As a result, the prices of shoes began to drop, making them more accessible to ordinary people. This, in turn, led to a rise in demand for shoes, which only served to increase the need for factories to produce them. Most of the workers in these factories were unskilled and did not require extensive training. The job could be done by almost anyone. Women and children were often employed in factories due to their willingness to work for lower wages than men. The factories eventually replaced the itinerants and bespoke shops, and mass production became the norm. The establishment of these factories was instrumental in transforming the shoe industry from a small-scale operation to a large-scale industry with worldwide distribution.

(a) Michael and Melissa must include their principal contributions to the RESP as part of their total incomes for the year; this amount will be subject to taxation at their respective marginal tax rates.

A Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) is a special savings account that is registered with the Canadian government to encourage families to save for their children's post-secondary education by offering tax-free investment returns.

When an RESP is terminated, the accumulated earnings on both the contributions and the Canadian Education Savings Grant (CESG) must be withdrawn. The contributions to the RESP account are not taxable when withdrawn, but the accumulated earnings and grants paid out are taxable in the hands of the beneficiary.

If Michael and Melissa terminate the RESP, then they must include their principal contributions to the RESP as part of their total incomes for the year. This amount will be subject to taxation at their respective marginal tax rates. Therefore, option (a) is true.

The $14,000 in investment earnings cannot be rolled over to either Michael or Melissa's RRSP as an accumulated income payment (Option b is not true). Michael and Melissa must include the $14,000 in investment earnings as part of their total income for the year if they terminate the RESP.

Answers

To calculate the total amount charged by Visa, including the 4% service fee, for the $800 dinner bill,

we can follow these steps:

1. Calculate the service fee charged by Visa:

  Service Fee = 4% of $800

  Service Fee = 0.04 * $800

  Service Fee = $32

2. Determine the total amount charged by Visa:

  Total Amount Charged = Dinner bill + Service Fee

  Total Amount Charged = $800 + $32

  Total Amount Charged = $832

Therefore, Visa would charge a total of $832, which includes the $800 dinner bill and the 4% service fee, for the transaction at Cullumber's Restaurant on July 4th.

Consider the following statement from a (fictional) economist named Primo: ""Central banks should not be allowed to act as lenders of last resort. When they do so they are only wasting public money bailing out insolvent banks"". Discuss the merits of Primo’s point of view.

Answers

Primo's viewpoint that central banks should not act as lenders of last resort and that doing so wastes public money bailing out insolvent banks can be debated based on its merits.

While there may be valid concerns about moral hazard and the potential misuse of public funds, there are several reasons why acting as lenders of last resort can be considered necessary and beneficial.

Firstly, during times of financial crisis or systemic stress, the stability of the entire financial system can be at risk. By providing liquidity and support to insolvent banks, central banks can prevent panic and contagion from spreading, which could have severe consequences for the economy and the general public.

Secondly, central banks play a critical role in maintaining overall economic stability. By acting as lenders of last resort, they can help stabilize financial markets, maintain confidence, and prevent severe disruptions in credit flows, which are essential for businesses and individuals to function effectively.

Moreover, the concept of lender of last resort is often accompanied by strict conditions and safeguards to ensure that public funds are not misused and that insolvent banks are held accountable for their actions. Central banks typically impose conditions, such as restructuring or recapitalization plans, to mitigate moral hazard and promote responsible behavior.

In summary, while Primo's concerns about wasting public money and moral hazard are valid, the role of central banks as lenders of last resort is crucial for maintaining financial stability and preventing systemic crises.

Suppose the exchange rate at the start of the year was £.6525/$. Since the start of the year, the pound has appreciated 6%. What is the exchange rate today? Keep the $ as the base currency and the £ as the terms currency. (4 decimal places like the original exchange rate)

Answers

Exchange Rate today is £0.69165/$.

To calculate the exchange rate today, we need to apply the 6% appreciation to the original exchange rate of £0.6525/$.

To determine the appreciation, we can use the formula:

Appreciation = Original Value x Rate of Appreciation

Applying the values:

Appreciation = £0.6525/$ x 0.06

Appreciation = £0.03915/$

To find the exchange rate today, we need to add the appreciation to the original exchange rate:

Exchange Rate today = Original Exchange Rate + Appreciation

Exchange Rate today = £0.6525/$ + £0.03915/$

Exchange Rate today = £0.69165/$

Rounding to 4 decimal places, the exchange rate today is £0.6917/$.
