An individual wants to have $95,000 per year to live on when she retires in 30 years. The individual is planning on living for 20 years after retirement. If the investor can earn 6% during her retirement years and 10% during her working years, how much should she be saving during her working life
Answer:
The amount she would be saving during her working life is $1,089,64 and the deposit required for each year is $6,624.21
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
The amount of income needed for retirement income = P×[1-(1÷(1+r)^n)]÷r
Now,
The Interest rate per annum =6.00%
The Number of years = 2
The Number of compoundings per annum = 1
The Interest rate per period ( r)=6.00%
The period per payment (P)=$ 95,000
The Amount required for retirement income = 95000*[1-(1/(1+6%)^95000]/6% =$1,089,643
Now,
Required deposit for every year (P)=FVA÷([(1+r)^n-1]÷r)
The Interest rate per annum = 10.00%
The Number of years= 30
The number payments per per annum =1 The Interest rate per period ( r)=10.00%
The Number of periods (n)=30
Thus,
The Future value of annuity (FVA) = $1,089,643
Hence the deposit required for each year is = 1089643/(((1+10%)^30-1)/10%)
= $6,624.21

On January 1, 2020, Headland Company issued 10-year, $1,840,000 face value, 6% bonds, at par. Each $1,000 bond is convertible into 16 shares of Headland common stock. Headland net income in 2020 was $473,800, and its tax rate was 20%. The company has 103,000 shares of common stock outstanding throughout 2020. None of the bonds were converted in 2020.
a. Compute diluted earnings per share for 2014.
b. Compute diluted earnings per share for 2014, assuming the same facts as above, except that
$1,000,000 of 6% convertible preferred stock was issued instead of the bonds. Each $100 preferred
share is convertible into 5 shares of Crocker common stock.
Answer:
a. $3.64
b. $3.56
Explanation:
Basic Earning per Share = Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stocks / Weighted Average Number of Common Shares
Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stocks Calculation :
Net income $473,800
Less Interest on bonds after tax ($1,840,000×6%×80%) ($88,320)
Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stocks $385,480
Weighted Average Number of Common Shares Calculation:
Common Shares 103,000
Weighted Average Number of Common Shares 103,000
Basic Earning per Share = $385,480/103,000
= $3.74
Diluted Earning per Share = Adjusted Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stocks / Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Shares
Adjusted Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stocks Calculation:
Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stocks $385,480
Add Back Interest on bonds after tax ($1,840,000×6%×80%) $88,320
Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stocks $473,800
Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Shares Calculation:
Weighted Average Number of Common Shares 103,000
Add Convertible Bonds (1840,000/1000×16) 26,440
Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Shares 129,880
Diluted Earning per Share = $473,800/ 129,880
= $3.64

Assuming 8% discount rate and 2% inflation each year from the very beginning, when does the project achieve a positive NPV?
Answer: A positive NPV is gotten after 8 years
Explanation:
The net present value is also referred to as the net present worth. The net present value applies to a series of cash flows that occurs at different times.
The present value of cash flow depends on time interval between now and the cash flow and also depends on discount rate. The net present value accounts for time value of money.
The explanation for the question has been attached.

Lice's Aspirin Inc. produces and packages aspirin for sale to retail stores. Bob buys a bottle of Alice's aspirin at Dahl's Food Stores. Two days later Bob takes two aspirin and within minutes, becomes very ill and is rushed to the hospital, where it is found that a defect in the aspirin caused the reaction. Which of the following is correct?
A. Bob can sue both Alice's Aspirin Inc. and Dahl's because he suffered personal injury due to the defective product.
B. Bob cannot sue anyone because he assumed the risk of taking the aspirin.
C. Bob cannot sue anyone because he is not in privity with Dahl's or Alice's.
D. Bob can sue but will not be able to recover consequential damages for his medical expenses.
Answer:
The correct answer is the option A: Bob can sue both Alice's Aspirin Inc. and Dahl's because he suffered personal injury due to the defective product.
Explanation:
To begin with, the situation that later caused Bob to be injured could have been worse in the case that he may not have gone to the doctor and that is why that he did not just suffered and injury but he also may have had more serious problems or even a situation that could have changed his life forever so therefore that he is able to sue both the store and the company because of the situation that happen to him because of them. In advance, the court will later determinate how much compensation and how the case will go on, but initially he can sue both because of the unpleasent situation that they make him live.
On December 31, 2021, Larry's Used Cars had balances in Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts of $53,600 and $1,325, respectively. During 2022, Larry's wrote off $1,465 in accounts receivable and determined that there should be an allowance for uncollectible accounts of $1,280 at December 31, 2022. Bad debt expense for 2022 would be:
Answer:
$1,420
Explanation:
The computation of the bad debt expense is shown below:
As we know that
Ending balance of allowance for uncollectible accounts = Beginning balance of allowance for uncollectible accounts + bad debt expense - written off amount
$1,280 = $1,325 + bad debt expense - $1,465
So, the bad debt expense for the year 2022 is $1,420
Basically we applied the above formula to find out the bad debt expense
January 1 of this year, a Company completed the following transactions (assume a 9% annual interest rate):
Bought a delivery truck and agreed to pay $60,400 at the end of three years. Rented an office building and was given the option of paying $10,400 at the end of each of the next three years or paying $28,400 immediately. Established a savings account by depositing a single amount that will increase to $90,800 at the end of seven years. Decided to deposit a single sum in the bank that will provide 9 equal annual year-end payments of $40,400 to a retired employee (payments starting December 31 of this year).
What is the cost of the truck that should be recorded at the time of purchase?
Which option for the office building results in the lowest present value?
Answer:
The cost of the truck that should be recorded at the time of purchase is $46,639
Paying installment is the best option
Explanation:
In order to Calculate the cost of the truck that should be recorded at the time of purchase we need find out present value of future amount of 60,400 with the following formula:
PV=FV/(1+i)^n
FV = Future value
i = interest rate
n = No of years
By applying the formula = 60,400/(1+.09)^3
PV= $46,639
Therefore, $46,639 should be recorded as a cost of truck.
Paying installment is better option than paying lump sum amount of $28,400 as present value of installment method ($26,322 as per below table) is less than immediate payment amount.
PV of installment method
Year installment method PV Factor PV
1 10,400 0.917 9,537
2 10,400 0.842 8,757
3 10,400 0.772 8,029
Total 26,322
plans to retain and reinvest all of its earnings for the next 30 years. beiginning in year 31, the firm will begin to pay $12 per share dividend. the dividend will increase at a 6% rate annually thereafter. given a required return of 15% what the stock should sell for today
Answer:
The stock should sell for = $2.01
Explanation:
The Dividend Valuation Model is a technique used to value the worth of an asset. According to this model, the worth of an asset is the sum of the present values of its future cash flows discounted at the required rate of return.
The model is given as
P = D× g/(r-g)
P- stock value, g- growth rate , r-m required rate of return
PV of dividend in year 30 = 12/(0.15- 0.06)=133.3333333
PV of dividend in year in year 0 = 133.3333333 × 1.15^(-30)= 2.01
The stock should sell for = $2.01
Of customers who register a complaint, ________. all will do business with the company again because they are unwilling to dedicate the effort required to find another vendor none will do business with the company again customers whose complaints are satisfactorily resolved are more likely to provide publicity than those who are dissatisfied the speed of resolution has no impact on the likelihood of repeat business some will do business with the company again if their complaint is resolved
Answer:
Some will do business with the company again if their complaint is resolved.
Explanation:
In the current situations that surrounds marketing and different businesses, it is now inevitable for customers not to complain and at such can lead to loss of customer(s).
Complaints from a customer primarily highlights a problem, this ranges from problem with your product to employees or internal processes, and also by hearing these problems directly from your customers, you can investigate and improve to prevent further complaints in the future.
That is why it is said that some customers will likely do business with the company again if their complaint are been resolved.
Answer:
some will do business with the company again if their complaint is resolved
Explanation:
Complaints are made by customers who are seeking better services from a business as regards it's products and services.
When complaints are resolved customers usually do business again with the company.
Customers who do not complain are those who notice the problem with the products or services offered and move to a competitor.
For a customer to make a complaint it means he is still loyal to the company but wants improvement in some area of product and services offering.
he ABC company is considering the purchase of a new machine that will last 5 years and cost $100,000; maintenance will cost $12,000 per year. If the interest rate is 10% per year, compounded quarterly, a. how much money should the company set aside for this machine b. what is the future value, at the end of year 5, of the given cash flows
Answer:
a.
$145,051.26
b.
$237,669.51
Explanation:
First, calculate the equivalent annual interest rate
Equivalent annual interest rate = ( ( 1 + ( i / n ) )^n ) - 1
Equivalent annual interest rate = ( ( 1 + ( 10% / 4 ) )^4 ) - 1
Equivalent annual interest rate = 10.38%
a.
We will use the following formula to calculate the amount of money set aside.
Net Present value = Initial Cost + Maintainance cost x ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n / r
Net Present value = $100,000 + $12,000 x ( 1 - ( 1 + 10.38% )^-5 / 10.38%
Net Present value = $145,051.26
b.
We need to calculate the future value of using the following formula
Future value = $100,000 x ( 1 + 10.38% )^5 + [ $12,000 x ( ( 1 + 10.38% )^5 - 1 / 10.38%
Future value = $163,852.08 + $73,817.43 = $237,669.51

Marpor Industries has no debt and expects to generate free cash flows of $16 million each year. Marpor believes that if it permanently increases its level of debt to $40 million, the risk of financial distress may cause it to lose some customers and receive less favorable terms from its suppliers. As a result, Marpor's expected free cash flows with debt will be only $15 million per year. Suppose Marpor's tax rate is 35%, the risk-free rate is 5%, the expected return of the market is 15%, and the beta of Marpor's free cash flows is 1.1 (with or without leverage). a. Estimate Marpor's value without leverage. b. Estimate Marpor's value with the new leverage.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. Marpor's value without leverage is
But before that first we have to calculate the required rate of return which is
The Required rate of return = Risk Free rate of return + Beta × market risk premium
= 5% + 1.1 × (15% - 5%)
= 16%
Now without leverage is
= Free cash flows generates ÷ required rate of return
= $16,000,000 ÷ 16%
= $100,000,000
b. And, with the new leverage is
= (Free cash flows with debt ÷ required rate of return) + (Tax rate × increase of debt)
= ($15,000,000 ÷ 0.16) + (0.35 × $40,000,000)
= $93,750,000 + $14,000,000
= $107,750,000
Nash Corporation had income from continuing operations of $10,813,600 in 2020. During 2020, it disposed of its restaurant division at an after-tax loss of $206,600. Prior to disposal, the division operated at a loss of $316,100 (net of tax) in 2020 (assume that the disposal of the restaurant division meets the criteria for recognition as a discontinued operation). Nash had 10,000,000 shares of common stock outstanding during 2020. Prepare a partial income statement for Nash beginning with income from continuing operations. (Round earnings per share to 2 decimal places, e.g. 1.48.)
Answer and Explanation:
The presentation of the partial income statement is presented below:
Nash Corporation
Partial income statement
Income from continuing operations $10,813,600
Discontinued operations
Loss from operations of a division $316,100
Loss from disposal of the division $206,600 ($522,700)
Net income $10,290,900
Earning per share
Income from continuing operations
($10,813,600 ÷ 10,000,000 shares) $1.08
Less Discontinued operations
($522,700 ÷ 10,000,000 shares) -$0.05
Net income
($10,290,900 ÷ 10,000,000 shares) $1.03
We simply deduct the losses from the income so that the net income could arrive
An investment project provides cash inflows of $745 per year for eight years. What is the project payback period if the initial cost is $1,700? What if the initial cost is $3,300? What if it is $6,100? Ross, Stephen,Ross, Stephen. Fundamentals of Corporate Finance (Kindle Locations 14578-14580). McGraw-Hill Higher Education. Kindle Edition.
Answer:
2.28 years
4.43 years
8.19 years
Explanation:
Payback period is the time period in which initial investment of a project is recovered.
Initial cost = $1,700
Pay back period = Initial Investment / Yearly cash inflow
Pay back period = $1,700 / $745 = 2.28 years
Initial cost = $3,300
Pay back period = Initial Investment / Yearly cash inflow
Pay back period = $3,300 / $745 = 4.43 years
Initial cost = $6,100
Pay back period = Initial Investment / Yearly cash inflow
Pay back period = $6,100 / $745 = 8.19 years
Breezy Company is considering the replacement of equipment that has a current book value of $340,000. Breezy has an oppprtunity to sell the equipment for $240,000. The cost of replacing the old equipment with a new machine is $300,000. The cost of operating the new equipment is $20,000 per year less than the cost of operating the old equipment. The new equipment has a 5-year useful life. The amount of the sunk cost for this replacement decision is
Answer:
$340,000
Explanation:
A sunk cost is a cost that has already been incurred and cannot be affected by any decision that someone makes. E.g. once you pay an expense like rent, the cost will not be recovered or altered by any decision that you make. Sunk costs is simply money that has been spent and cannot be recovered.
Operating expenses other than depreciation for the year were $300,000. Accrued expenses decreased by $30,000 during the year. Cash payments for operating expenses to be reported on the cash flow statement using the direct method would be
Answer: $330,000
Explanation:
Using the Direct Cashflow statement the expenses minus the Depreciation is added to a reduction in the Accrued Expenses to give the amount paid.
Therefore,
= 300,000 + 30,000
= $330,000
The rationale behind this is that Operating Expenses are paid for by cash and so reduce the cash balance. Depreciation on the other hand, even though it is recognised as an expense, it is not a cash expense because the company doesn't give cash to the equipment being depreciated, the depreciation is just recorded and it does not reduce the cash balance. Operating Expenses like electricity reduce the cash balance because they are paid for.

B (one pound per unit) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1,000 lb 1,000 lb $1 per lb
Prepare the following:__________.
a. A production budget for March (in units).
b. A direct materials budget for the month (in units and dollars).
Answer:
Production budget = 18,000 units
Material budget(units) :
Material A = 18,500 gallons
Material B = 18,000 pounds
Material budget($) $36,500
Explanation:
The production budget = Sales + closing inventory - opening inventory
= 20,000 + 1000 - 3000= 18,000 units.
Production budget = 18,000 units
Material budget(units) :
Material budget = Material usage + closing inventory - opening inventory
Material A =( 18,000× 1 ) + 1000- 500= 18,500 gallons
Material B = (18,000× 1) + 1000 - 1000 = 18,000 pounds
Material budget($) :
Material A = 18,500 gallons × $2 per gallon = $18,500
Material B = 18,000 pounds × $1 per pound = $18,000
Total $36,500

Tate Company purchased equipment on November 1, 2020 and gave a 3-month, 9% note with a face value of $120,000. Tate’s year-end is December 31st. The December 31, 2020 adjusting entry is Group of answer choices debit Interest Expense and credit Cash, $7,200 debit Interest Expense and credit Interest Payable, $1,800 debit Interest Expense and credit Interest Payable, $1,200 debit Interest Expense and credit Interest Payable, $10,800
Answer: Debit Interest Expense and credit Interest Payable, $1,800
Explanation:
The amount of time that has elapsed between the 1st of November and the 31st of December is 2 months.
This means that the interest over the last 2 months has to be calculated and recorded on the 31st of December.
Bear in mind that the 9% is an annual interest rate figure and so when calculating the interest, you must adjust for the amount of months in the year.
Interest owed for 2 months is,
= 9% * 2/12 (2 months have elapses out of 12 months in the year) * $120,000
= $1,800
Interest owed is $1,800.
The correct entry will therefore be,
Dec 31
DR Interest Expense $1,800
CR Interest Payable $1,800
( To record interest payable on note)

Becky Knauer recently resigned from her position as controller for Shamalay Automotive, a small, struggling foreign car dealer in Upper Saddle River, New Jersey. Becky has just started a new job as the controller for Mueller Imports, a much larger dealer for the same car manufacturer. Demand for this particular make of car is exploding, and the manufacturer cannot produce enough to satisfy demand. The manufacturer’s regional sales managers are each given a certain number of cars. Each sales manager then decides how to divide the cars among the independently owned dealerships in the region. Because of the high demand for these cars, dealerships all want to receive as many cars as they can from the regional sales manager.
Becky’s former employer, Shamalay Automotive, receives only about 25 cars each month. Consequently, Shamalay is not very profitable.
Becky is surprised to learn that her new employer, Mueller Imports, receives more than 200 cars each month. Becky soon gets another surprise. Every couple of months, a local jeweler bills the dealer $5,000 for "miscellaneous services." Franz Mueller, the owner of the dealership, personally approves payment of these invoices, noting that each invoice is a "selling expense." From casual conversations with a salesperson, Becky learns that Mueller frequently gives Rolex watches to the manufacturer’s regional sales manager and other sales executives. Before talking to anyone about this, Becky decides to work through her ethical dilemma. Put yourself in Becky’s place.
Requirements
1. What is the ethical issue?
2. What are your options?
3. What are the possible consequences?
4. What should you do?
Answer:
1. The ethical issue here is that Becky Knauer's new boss usually bribes the sales manager of a car dealership to get more quota of cars. He is doing this because the car is in high demand. The higher his quota, the higher the number of cars. The higher the number of cars, the more of them he can sell. The more he can sell, the higher the profits.
Here is the dilemma.
First, the action of Becky's boss is wrong, but it is also helping to keep the business afloat thus translating to securing her job and probably sustaining the pay she is receiving. We know this because Becky's former employer who receives just 25 cars a month is not very profitable.
Becky as the Controller, however, is in charge of Compliance. The actions of her boss are unethical. She has to flag such issues and report to him.
Franz is the owner of the dealership and is on the top of the 'food chain'. There is no one else within the organisational structure to report the matter to. He is supposed to lead by example. He, as the owner of the organisation, however, is leading with a bad example because other sales personnel know about these shady transactions.
2. Becky's options are as follows:
A. If she is too scared to confront her boss, she can decide to resign. She would have lost her job. There is no guarantee she will get another and the unethical practices will continue.
B. She can raise the issue with her boss and point out the dangers of continuing in such practice. By doing this, she is ruling out the possibility that he somehow is unaware of the dangers of his actions. In raising the matter with her boss, she must do this in black and white.
The above decision can go either left or right.
Right means that her boss comes to understand the import of his actions and makes amends. Left means, he gets jittery and fires her.
3. As stated above, Franz may fire Becky if she flags his actions.
If this happens, she can take the matter to the State of New Jersy Motor Commission and possibly sue Franz for wrongful dismissal.
Cheers!

The UCR Corp expects an earnings of $100,000 every year forever. The company currently has no debt, and its cost of equity is 15 percent. (a) If the corporate tax rate is 40 percent, what is the value of the company
Answer:
Value of the company = $400,000
Explanation:
The value of a firm is the present value of its stream of net cash flow discounted at the appropriate cost of capital. The appropriate cost of capital here is 15%.
Net cash flow = 100,000 - (40% × 100,000)= 60,000
Value of the company = A/r
A= 60,000, r-discount rate - 15%,
Value of the company = 60,000/0.15= $400,000
Value of the company = $400,000
Smith Law Firm specializes in the preparation of wills for estate planning. On October 1, 2021, the company begins operations by issuing stock for $11,000 and obtaining a loan from a local bank for $22,000. By the end of 2021, the company provides will preparation services of $29,000 cash and pays employee salaries of $20,000. In addition, Smith pays $1,700 in cash dividends to stockholders on December 31, 2021.
Answer: $31,300
Explanation:
The Financing Section of the Cashflow statement deals with any and everything that has to do with the raising of capital for the business and the accounts that are concerned with this. This means that anything to do with the Equity Accounts including dividends as well as the Bond Accounts and long term loans falls under this section.
Out of Smith Law Firm's transactions for 2021 that we are given, the following are therefore classified as Financing Activities.
1. Issuing Stock
2. Obtaining a Loan
3. Dividend Payment.
Remember, inflows increase the cash balance and Outflows reduce it.
The total.amount of Financing Cashflows will therefore be,
= 11,000 (stock issuance which is inflow) + 22,000 (loan acquisition which is an inflow) - 1,700 (dividends are Outflows)
= $31,300
$31,300 is the amount of Financing Cashflows Smith will report in 2021.
