Which of the following statements about portfolio diversifications are correct? Check all that apply. The risk of a portfolio declines as the number of stocks in the portfolio increases. By adding enough partially correlated stocks, risk can be completely eliminated. The higher the stocks’ correlation coefficients, the lower the portfolio’s risk. Stocks with perfectly negatively correlated returns do not exist.
Answer:
The risk of a portfolio declines as the number of stocks in the portfolio increases.
Explanation:
In simple words, diversification refers to the benefit of lesser risk that a manager gets by adding negatively or less correlates securities in the portfolio.
However, it is a fact that risk can only be minimized and cannot be eliminated completely. The risk that is specific to the business is called systematic risk and due to its unpredictability it cannot be diversified away.
Thus, from the above we can conclude that the correct option is A.
Which of the following statements is true regarding the Unrealized Loss on Investments account
A) It is contra to the Allowance to Adjust Short Term Investments to Market Value
B) It is reported on the income statement when it pertains to short term investments
C) It is debited when securities are sold for less than their purchase price
D) It is not reported on the financial statements; only realized gains and losses are reported
Answer:
B) It is reported on the income statement when it pertains to short term investments
Explanation:
Unrealised loss is defined as a reduction in the value of an asset that is held by an investor rather than selling it and realising a loss.
Unrealised loss is also called paper loss. This loss is not realised until the asset is sold.
Unrealised losses are not usually recorded on the income statement unless they intend to be sold in a short time.
When a security is to be sold in the short run it is called a trading security. Trading securities are represented in the income statement as they can increase or reduce income

Prepare a double spaced memo to the company president, John Smith (who has an engineering background but no financial or accounting training) recommending the best choice in the following scenario:
Smith Construction Inc. has just purchased several major pieces of road building equipment. Because the purchase price is so large, the supplier is giving Smith the option of choosing among three payment plans:
Option 1 - $600,000 immediately in cash;
Option 2 - $200,000 down payment now and $65,000 per year for each of the next 12 years beginning at the end of the current year;
Option 3 - $90,000 at the end of each of the next 14 years.
Please assume that the cost of capital for Smith Construction is 12%.
Answer:
The best option is the third option because it has the lowest present value

You work in the human resource department at the headquarters of a multinational corporation based in the US. Your company is about to send a number of managers overseas as expatriates to France and Mexico.
Requried:
You need to create an executive summary evaluating, comparing, and contrasting the possible issues expats may encounter in these two countries.
Answer:
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Explanation:
1.There are many factors to consider that the company must bear in mind when sending these managers as expatriates.
In the following executive summary we will analyze what challenges must be faced according to the country where they will be sent.
In the case of France, the work environment is highly formal and follows a hierarchical structure already defined, so they must adapt to their role as manager and comply with the imposed requirements, which in turn is important.
As for the social and cultural sphere, it is important to comply with the punctuality and formality protocols required in each of the events or meetings to be held, in addition to feeling respect and admiration for them.
2. Regarding Mexico, the work environment is very healthy, and expatriates are highly respected and appreciated, although they must meet all the labor requirements and additional demands regarding extra work.
SuperGroup has expressed the intention to begin selling in other countries, including China, while still protecting its Superdry brand. This will mean determining the appropriate pricing strategies for each country, training and supporting an international sales force, and creating advertising campaigns. These activities all occur in what segment of the value chain?
Answer:
Marketing and sales segment.
Explanation:
A values chain consists of actions that a firm functioning in a public industry that performs in order to deliver a valuable product to the market. The idea value chain is based on the process view of a manufacturing organization as a system of subsystems that transforms and processes money, labor, and materials, etc. The marketing and sales is considered to be a primary function and include the creation of salesforce, advertising campaigns, and giving values to its customers, clients and partners.The predetermined manufacturing overhead rate is $10.00 per direct labor hour ($16.00 ÷ 1.6). It was computed from a master manufacturing overhead budget based on normal production of 8,000 direct labor hours (5,000 units) for the month. The master budget showed total variable costs of $60,000 ($7.50 per hour) and total fixed overhead costs of $20,000 ($2.50 per hour). The actual costs for October in producing 4,800 units were as follows.
Direct materials (5,100 pounds) $ 36,720
Direct labor (7,400 hours) 92,500
Variable overhead 59,700
Fixed overhead 21,000
Total manufacturing costs $209,920

Capital One produces a single product, which it sells for $8.00 per unit. Variable costs per unit equal $3.20. The company expects short-term fixed costs to be $7,200 for the coming month, at the projected sales level of 20,000 units. Management is considering several alternative actions designed to improve operating results. In conjunction with this, they have created a profit-planning (that is, a CVP) model, which can be used to evaluate different scenarios. What is Capital One's current break-even point in terms of number of units for the month? a) 1,500 units. b) 2,250 units. c) 4,000 units d) 3,330 units.
Answer:
Capital One's current break-even point in terms of number of units for the month is 1500 units
Explanation:
Break-even point in terms of number of units is the sales units required such that the company makes neither gain nor loss
break-even point in sales units=fixed costs/contribution margin per unit
fixed costs is $7,200
contribution margin=sales price per unit-variable cost per unit
sales price per unit is $8
variable cost per unit is $3.20
contribution margin=$8-$3.20=$4.80
break-even point=$7,200/$4.80=1,500 units
The correct option is A ,1500 units
Assume that on October 1st Lee Corporation purchases all of the assets of Kay Corporation for $510,000. All of the identifiable assets of Kay Corporation have a fair market value of $420,000, including the patent, which has a fair market value of $36,000. Also, a covenant not to compete for 3 years costing $72,000 is included in the purchase agreement.
Required:
a. If lee Corporation purchases the patent for $36,000, how much amortization expense may Lee Corporation deduct in the current year?
b. Assume that Lee Corporation purchases all of the assets of Kay Corporation for $510,000. All of the identifiable assets of Kay Corporation have a fair market value of $420,000, including the patent, which has a fair market value of $36,000. Also, a covenant not to compete for 3 years costing $72,000 is included in the purchase agreement. How much amortization expense may Lee Corporation deduct in the current year?
Answer and Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
a) Assume Remaining life = 10 years
Corporation purchases the patent = $36,000
Current Amortization Value (October to December)
= (Purchase Value of Patent ÷ Remaining Life) × number of months ÷ total number of months in a year
= ($36,000 ÷ 10) × 3 months ÷ 12 months
= $3,600 × 3 months ÷ 12 months
= $900
Lee Corporation deducted $900 amortization expenses in the current year.
b).Goodwill
= Assets Purchasing Value of Kay Corporation - Assets Purchasing Fair Market Value of Kay Corporation
= $510,000 - $420,000
= $90,000
Assume amortization period is = 15 years as it is for trade or business
Current Amortization Value (October to December)
= (Goodwill + Fair Market Value of Patent + Costing of 3 Years ÷ Amortization Period) × number of months ÷ total number of months in a year
= ($90,000 + $36,000 + $72,000 ÷ 15) × 3 months ÷ 12 months
= $13,200 × 3 months ÷ 12 months
= $3,300
Lee Corporation deducted $3,300 amortization expenses in the current year.
Lauer Corporation provided the following information about one of its laptop computers: Date Transaction Number of Units Cost per Unit 1/1 Beginning Inventory 290 $ 990 5/5 Purchase 390 $ 1,090 8/10 Purchase 490 $ 1,190 10/15 Purchase 295 $ 1,240 During the year, Lauer sold 1,225 laptop computers. What was cost of goods sold using the FIFO cost flow assumption
Answer:
Cost of Goods sold under FIFO is $1,363,500
Explanation:
The FIFO or First In First Out method is a method for closing inventory or Cost of goods sold valuation. It values the inventory based on the assumption that the units that are purchased first will be the ones to be sold first and the closing inventory consists of the most recently purchased inventory which is not sold yet.
The total units that are available for sale for the month are,
Total units available for sale = 290 + 390 + 490 + 295 = 1465 laptops
The units sold are 1225.
The closing inventory is thus = 1465 - 1225 = 240 laptops
Units sold from 10/15 Purchase = 295 - 240 = 55 units
As we are using FIFO, the 240 laptops left as closing inventory will be from the last purchase made on 10/15. Thus, the cost of goods sold will consist of the cost of,
Cost of goods sold
Beginning inventory (290 * 990) 287100
5/5 Purchase (390 * 1090) 425100
8/10 Purchase (490 * 1190) 583100
10/15 Purchase (55 * 1240) 68200
Total 1,363,500

Henry Ford invented mass production. In doing so, he perfected the assembly line concept in which each worker does only one job or a handful of jobs and is given little other responsibility. This worked well for 70 years; however, it became apparent in the 1990s that an increasing number of U.S. companies could not produce a high-quality product by sticking to the assembly line model. What has changed?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options provided or another reference, we can say that what has changed from that old conception to produce goods is the customization of products and attention to detail to differentiate the product from the competition and the more efficient production line with the use of robots and modern technology. That is what is making the difference today, in a competitive market full of companies that try to capture the loyalty of the consumer.
No more production line in the old way. Today, companies are asking consumers what they want and how they want it and are making every single effort possible to provide the exact product.
During the planning process, if there is a gap between future desired sales and projected sales, corporate management will need to develop or acquire new businesses to fill it. Identify and describe the three strategies that can be used to fill the strategic gap.
Answer:
They are:
1) Intensive growth
2) Integrative growth
3) Diversification growth
Explanation:
1. Intensive growth:
This involves identifying further growth opportunities that are available within existing businesses. It identifies new customer groups for growth within current businesses, develop additional distribution channels or selling in new markets such as those in other countries. If this is insufficient the company may look into Integrative growth.
2. Integrative growth:
The second involves involves backward, forward, or horizontal integration. Horizontal integration involves buying smaller competitors.
Backward integration reaches into value chain to get suppliers. Forward involves buying distribution channels in the value chain closest to the customer. Integrative growth identifies opportunities to acquire businesses that are in relation to current businesses.
3. Diversification:
Diversification growth is to identify opportunities so as to add attractive unrelated businesses

Benaflek Co. purchased some equipment 3 years ago. The company's required rate of return is 12%, and the net present value of the project was $(1,800). Annual cost savings were: $20,000 for year 1; $16,000 for year 2; and $12,000 for year 3. The amount of the initial investment wasYear Present Value PV of an Annuity of 1 at 12% of 1 at 12%1 .893 .893 2 .797 1.6903 .712 2.402A. $40,232.B. $37,356.C. $40,956.D. $36,632.
Answer:
The correct option is C,$40,956
Explanation:
NPV=present value annual cost savings-initial investment
NPV is -$1800
present value of annual savings=$20,000/(1+12%)^1+$16,000/(1+12%)^2+$12,000/(1+12%)^3=$39,153.61
-$1800= $39,153.61 -initial investment
initial investment=$ 39,153.61+$1800=$40953.61
The correct option is the option C,$40,956 which is closest to $40953.61 ,the difference arose from rounding errors when the discount factors were rounded to to three decimal places instead of using the exact figures

Karen White is saving to buy a house in five years. She plans to put 20 percent down at that time, and she believes that she will need $29,000 for the down payment. If Karen can invest in a fund that pays 9.40 percent annual interest, compounded quarterly, how much will she have to invest today to have enough money for the down payment
Answer:
$ 7,196.59
Explanation:
To determine the the amount that should be invested today, we will workout a sum that will be invested today at 9.40% that would amount to 29,000 five(5 ) years time.
FV = PV ×(1+r/)^n/m
r = 9.40/4= 2.35 per quarter
29,000= PV × (1.0235)^(5×12)
29,000 =PV × 4.029682413
= 29,000/4.029682413
PV = 7,196.59
The amount that should be invested today to have enough money

If your company’s product is mobile phones, do you think it would make better strategic sense to employ a multidomestic strategy, a transnational strategy, or a global strategy? Multiple Choice A transnational strategy would be appropriate since the same strategic theme could be employed, but country-to-country customization is necessary to accommodate consumer preferences in mobile phone features. A global strategy makes best strategic sense since country-to-country customization to fit local market conditions is necessary. A global strategy would be appropriate since most mobile phones are constructed to work globally and buyer needs across the world are relatively universal. A multidomestic strategy is called for since mobile phone features must be tailored to the specific market conditions and buyer preferences in each country market. A transnational strategy would make better strategic sense since it would be difficult to employ essentially the same strategic theme in all country markets.
Answer:
The correct answer is the third option: A global strategy would be appropiate since most mobile phones are constructed to work globally and buyer needs across the world are relatively universal.
Explanation:
To begin with, in order to understand that using a global strategy is better and more suitable for the company first we need to understand that the company is working in the industry of mobile phones and therefore that is makes great sense to employ a global strategy that is focus on launching the products to the whole world or at least to the greater amount of countries that the company can because when it comes to mobile phones the needs of the consumers in every part tend to be the same and therefore it would no need much customization and the company will be able to release their product globally.

Part-time employees reduce the labor costs of an organization. They do not receive certain benefits as full-time employees.
Suppose you have $200,000 in a bank term account. You earn 5% interest per
annum from this account.
You anticipate that the inflation rate will be 4% during the year. However, the
actual inflation rate for the year is 6%.
Calculate the impact of inflation on the bank term deposit you have and
examine the effects of inflation in your city of residence with attention to food
and accommodation expenses.
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Explanation:
Account balance or principal = $200,000
Interest rate per annum = 5% = 0.05
Actual inflation rate for the year = 6% = 0.06
Period = 1 year
Amount at the end of one year:
Principal × ( period + interest rate)
$200,000 × ( 1 + 0.05)
$200,000 × (1.05) = $210,000
With anticipated inflation rate of 4% :
$200,000 × ( 1 + 0.04)
$200,000 × (1.04) = $208,000
Purchasing power = $208,000
At this rate of inflation, $208,000 will buy us what $200,000 can buy today.
Excess amount = $210,000 - $208,000 = $2000
$2000 will be earned if the principal is placed in bank.
With actual inflation rate of 6% :
$200,000 × ( 1 + 0.06)
$200,000 × (1.06) = $212,000
Purchasing power = $212,000
With inflation rate of 6%, $200,000 today will be equivalent to $212,000 after one year and as such will be required to purchase the same items $200,000 can today.
Deficit amount = $210,000 - $212,000 = $(2000) deficit
Exercise 06-2 Computing unit and inventory costs under variable costing LO P1 Trio Company reports the following information for the current year, which is its first year of operations. Assume instead that Trio Company uses variable costing. Direct materials $15 per unit Direct labor $16 per unit Overhead costs for the year Variable overhead $4 per unit Fixed overhead $160,000 per year Units produced this year 20,000 units Units sold this year 14,000 units Ending finished goods inventory in units 6,000 units1. Compute the product cost per unit using variable costing. Cost per unit of finished goods using: Variable costing Cost per unit of finished goods 2. Determine the cost of ending finished goods inventory
Answer:
Trio Company
1. Using Variable Costing:
a. Product Cost per unit = $35 (see below)
b. Cost per unit of finished goods = $35 (see below)
2. Using variable cost, the cost of ending finished goods inventory = 6,000 * $35 = $210,000
b. Using total cost, the cost of ending finished goods inventory =
6,000 * $43 = $258,000
Explanation:
a) Calculation of Costs:
Cost per unit Total Costs
Direct materials $15 $300,000
Direct labor $16 $320,000
Variable overhead $4 $80,000
Total Variable $35 $700,000
Fixed Cost $8 $160,000
Total Cost $43 $860,000
b) Cost of Goods sold 14,000 x $43 = $602,000 using total cost per unit.
c) Cost of Goods sold 14,000 x $35 = $490,000 using variable cost per unit.
d) Variable costing is a method of assigning only variable costs to a product while the fixed overheads are treated as period expenses.
Kendall borrowed $782,000 on a construction loan at 10% interest on January 1, 2021. This loan was outstanding throughout the construction period. The company had $4,660,000 in 7% bonds payable outstanding in 2021 and 2022. Interest (using the weighted-average method) capitalized for 2021 was:

Payments made during 2021:
January 1, $200,000September 30, $300,000December 31, $300,000Answer:
$20,435.50
Explanation:
the weighted average method for calculating interest expense calculates weighted interest rates based on the interest expense of more than one outstanding debt:
$782,000 x 10% = $78,200$4,660,000 x 7% = $326,200total interest expense = $404,400weighted interest rate = $404,400 / ($782,000 + $4,660,000) = 7.4311%
average accumulated expenditure:
January 1: $200,000 x 12/12 = $200,000
September 30: $300,000 x 3/12 = $75,000
December 31: $300,000 x 0/12 = $0
total = $275,000
interest expense = $275,000 x 7.4311% = $20,435.50
Compute cost of goods sold, assuming Waterway uses: (Round average cost per unit to 4 decimal places, e.g. 2.7631 and final answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 6,548.) Cost of goods sold (a) Periodic system, FIFO cost flow $ (b) Perpetual system, FIFO cost flow $ (c) Periodic system, LIFO cost flow $ (d) Perpetual system, LIFO cost flow $ (e) Periodic system, weighted-average cost flow $ (f) Perpetual system, moving-average cost flow
Answer:
The average cost per unit is = 24.7917
The Periodic FIFO =163000
The Perpetual FIFO=163000
The Periodic FIFO = 195600
The Perpetual LIFO =186800
The Periodic weighted average cost flow= 176021
The Perpetual moving average cost flow= 169669
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
The first step to take is to compute average cost per unit
Unit Unit cost Total cost
Beginning inventory 2200 16 35200
Purchase 1 3200 24 76800
Purchase 2 4200 30 126000
The Total 9600 238000
Hence,
The Average cost per unit = 238000/9600 = 24.7917 per unit
Now, we calculate for the cost of goods sold which is given as :
The Periodic FIFO (35200+76800+1700*30) =163000
The Perpetual FIFO=163000
The Periodic LIFO (4200*30+2900*24)=195600
The Perpetual LIFO (76800+500*16+3400*30)=186800
The Periodic average (7100*24.7917)= 176021
The Perpetual (3700*20.7407+3400*27.3320)= 169669

A dealer buys 10,000 shares of ABC common at $20 for its inventory. One week later the stock is quoted at $22 - $23, and a customer sells 100 shares to the dealer at a net price of $21. Under the FINRA 5% Policy, a fair and reasonable mark-down is based upon which price?
Answer:
$22
Explanation:
According to the FINRA 5% Policy the mark-down if the customer sell must always be calculated from the inside bid price which is here $22 and if the customer is a buyer then the mark-up must be calculated using the inside ask price which is here $23. As the customer here is seller, hence the inside bid price $22 was appropriate here according to the FINRA 5% policy.
FINRA 5% policy says that the broker can not charge commissions, or markups or markdowns which is more than 5% on standard trades.
So the commission of $2 ($23-$21) is not allowed under this rule hence the appropriate price for the stock must be $22 not $21.

FCF($million) 52.1 68.6 78.3 74.4 81.1
After then, the free cash flows are expected to grow at the industry average of 4% per year. Using the discounted free cash flow model and a weighted average cost of capital of 14%:
A. Estimate the enterprise value of Heavy Metal.
B. If Heavy Metal has no excess cash, debt of $304 million, and 41 million shares outstanding, estimate its share price.
Answer:
Enterprise value of Heavy Metal= $1,080.766
Share price = $18.945 per unit
Explanation:
The value of a firm is the present value of the free cash flow discounted at the weighted average cost of capital
Year PV
1 52.1 × 1.14^(-1) = 45.70175439
2 68.6 × 1.14^(-2) = 52.40073869
3 78.6 × 1.14^(-3) = 53.05276117
4 74.4× 1.14^(-4) = 44.05077264
5 81.1 × 1.14^(-5) = 42.12079868
Year and beyond
81.1 × 1.04/(0.14-0.04) = 843.44
Total value = 45.70+ 52.40+53.052 + 44.050 +42.120+ 843.44 = 1080.766826
Enterprise value of Heavy Metal= $1,080.766
Share price = Total value - Debt value / number of shares
= (1,080.766 - 304 )/ 41 million units= $18.945 per unit
Share price = $18.945 per unit
