Chemco Enterprises is the manufacturer of Ultra-Dry, a hydrophobic coating that will waterproof anything. Over a 5-year period, the costs associ-ated with the pilot test product line were as fol-lows: first cost of $30,000 and annual costs of $18,000. Annual revenue was $27,000 and used equipment was salvaged for $4000. What rate of return did the company make on this product
Answer:
Chemco Enterprises
The rate of return that the company made on this product is:
= 15.83%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Project duration = 5 years
Initial Cost = $30,000
Total Annual costs = 90,000 ($18,000 * 5)
Total costs $120,000
Total Annual revenue = $135,000 ($27,000 * 5)
Salvage value = 4,000
Total revenue = $139,000
Return = $19,000 ($139,000 - $120,000)
Rate of return = $19,000/$120,000 * 100) = 15.83%
b) The rate of return compares the gain from an investment or a product with the costs of the investment. The resulting figure is then expressed as a percentage.

Answer:
$(60,000)
Explanation:
Based on the information given we were told that the company reported that its bonds with a par value of the amount of $57,000 are retired for the amount of $60,000 as cash which means that The amount to be reported under cash flows from financing activities is:$60,000 which was the amount that was retired for cash.
Calculate the cash dividends required to be paid for each of the following preferred stock issues: Required: The semiannual dividend on 10% cumulative preferred, $44 par value, 12,900 shares authorized, issued, and outstanding. The annual dividend on $1.75 cumulative preferred, 120,000 shares authorized, 72,000 shares issued, 63,600 shares outstanding. Last year's dividend has not been paid. The quarterly dividend on 12.0% cumulative preferred, $80 stated value, $109 liquidating value, 78,000 shares authorized, 67,600 shares issued and outstanding. No dividends are in arrears.
Answer:
a. The semiannual dividend on 10% cumulative preferred, $44 par value, 12,900 shares authorized, issued, and outstanding.
Figures are annualized:
= 10% * 44 * 12,900
= $56,760
Semi-annual dividends = 56,760 / 2
= $28,380
b. The annual dividend on $1.75 cumulative preferred, 120,000 shares authorized, 72,000 shares issued, 63,600 shares outstanding. Last year's dividend has not been paid.
= Dividend per share * Shares outstanding
= 1.75 * 63,000
= $110,250
Cumulative dividends have to be paid eventually and so accumulate. If dividend was not paid last year, total dividend is:
= 110,250 * 2
= $220,500
c. The quarterly dividend on 12.0% cumulative preferred, $80 stated value, $109 liquidating value, 78,000 shares authorized, 67,600 shares issued and outstanding. No dividends are in arrears.
Dividend = Dividend rate * Stated value * Number of shares outstanding
= 12% * 80 * 67,600
= $648,960
Quarterly dividend = 648,960/4
= $162,240
Ivanhoe Company reports the following operating results for the month of August: sales $392,000 (units 4,900), variable costs $247,000, and fixed costs $96,000. Management is considering the following independent courses of action to increase net income.
1. Increase selling price by 10% with no change in total variable costs or units sold.
2. Reduce variable costs to 57% of sales.
3. Reduce fixed costs by $22,000.
Which course of action wiIl produce the highest net?
Answer:
The best course of action is to increase the selling price by 10%.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
sales $392,000 (units 4,900)
variable costs (247,000)
fixed costs (96,000)
Current net income= 49,000
First, we need to calculate the unitary selling price and variable cost:
Selling price= 392,000 / 4,900= $80
Unitary variable cost= 247,000 / 4,900= $50.41
Now, we will calculate the impact on net income of each variation:
Increasing selling price by 10%:
Selling price= 80*1.1= $88
Effect on income= 8*4,900= $39,200 increase
Reduce variable costs to 57% of sales.
Unitary variable cost= 80*0.57= $45.6
Effect on income= (50.41 - 45.6)*4,900= $23,569 increase
Reduce fixed costs by $22,000.
Effect on income= $22,000 increase

Answer:
Bond Price or Present value = $23021820.4557 rounded off to $23021820
Explanation:
To calculate the quote/price of the bond today, the present value, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. As the bond is a semi annual bond, the semi coupon payment, semi annual number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,
Coupon Payment (C) = 25000000 * 0.07 * 6/12 = $875000
Total periods (n) = 5 * 2 = 10
r or YTM = 0.09 * 6/12 = 0.045 or 4.5%
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
Bond Price = 875000 * [( 1 - (1+0.045)^-10) / 0.045] +
25000000 / (1+0.045)^10
Bond Price or Present value = $23021820.4557 rounded off to $23021820

Lauer Corporation uses the periodic inventory system and has provided the following information about one of its laptop computers: Date Transaction Number of Units Cost per Unit 1/1 100 $ 800 5/5 Purchase 200 $ 900 8/10 Purchase 300 $ 1,000 10/15 Purchase 200 $ 1,100 During the year, Lauer sold 750 laptop computers. What was cost of goods sold using the LIFO cost flow assumption
Answer:
$740,000
Explanation:
LIFO assumes that the recent goods bought will be sold first. The Cost of Goods Sold is then calculated on the cost of the recent goods bought.
Cost of Goods Sold = 200 x $1,100 + 300 x $1,000 + 200 x $900 + 50 x $800
= $740,000
Therefore,
Cost of goods sold using the LIFO is $740,000.

Given the following yield curve: One-year bonds yield 8.50%, two-year bonds yield 9.50%, three-year bonds and greater maturity bonds all yield 10.50%. All bonds are paying annual coupons of 9.50%, once a year. You strongly believe that at year-end the yield curve will be flatten around the 3 year rate. Calculate the one year total rate of return for the one-year bond.
Answer:
One year rate of return will be = 8.49%
Explanation:
Data Given:
One year bonds yield = 8.50%
Two Year Bonds Yield = 9.50%
Three Year Bonds Yield = 10.50%
Coupon = 9.50%
In this question, we are asked to calculate just one year total rate of return for the one-year bond only.
Solution:
Face value of the bond = $1000
For Current Price of One year bond, we need to use excel function.
But first multiply the coupon rate with face value i.e 0.0950 x 1000 = 95
= PV (0.0850, 1, -95, -1000)
Enter the above formula into excel to get the current price of the one year bond.
So,
= PV (0.0850, 1, 95, -1000) = $1009.22
Current Price of the bond = $1009.22
After 1 year, it will mature.
So,
Price of bond at the end of year.
So, now the excel function will be:
= PV (0.0850, 0, -95, -1000) = $1000
Price of bond at the end of year = $1000
Coupon rate = 9.50%
Coupon = 1000 x 0.0950
Coupon = 95
One year rate of return will be = (Price of the bond at the end of year + Coupon - Current price of the bond) divided by Current price of the bond.
One year rate of return will be = ($1000 + 95 - $1009.22)/$1009.22
One year rate of return will be = 0.0849 x 100
One year rate of return will be = 8.49%
For an organization with annual sales of $500 million, purchases of $300 million and profit of $75 million, a 15 percent reduction in the cost of purchases would result in a profit-leverage effect of:_____.
a. 10 percent (sales increase of 10 percent would be required to achieve the same percentage increase in profit).
b. 60 percent (sales increase of 60 percent would be required to achieve the same percentage increase in profit).
c. 10 percent (sales increase of 50 percent would be required to achieve the same percentage increase in profit).
d. 15 percent (sales increase of 15 percent would be required to achieve the same percentage increase in profit).
Answer: B. 60 percent (sales increase of 60 percent would be required to achieve the same percentage increase in profit).
Explanation:
Annual sales = $500,000,000
Purchases = $300,000,000
Revised purchases = $300,000,000 × (100% - 15%) = $300,000,000 × 85%
= $255,000,000.
Current profit = $75,000,000
Current profit percentage = $75,000,000 / $500,000,000
= 15%
Additional profit due to the reduction in the purchases = Purchases - Revised purchases
= $300,000,000 - $255,000,000
= $45,000,000
Additional sales made = $45,000,000 / 15% = $300,000,000.
Profit Leverage effect = $300,000,000 / $500,000,000 = 0.6 = 60%
Therefore,the correct option is B.
On October 28, 2021, a company committed to a plan to sell a division that qualified as a component of the entity according to GAAP regarding discontinued operations and was properly classified as held for sale on December 31, 2021, the end of the company's fiscal year. The division's loss from operations for 2021 was $1,820,000. The division's book value and fair value less cost to sell on December 31 were $3,050,000 and $2,410,000, respectively. What before-tax amount(s) should the company report as loss on discontinued operations in its 2021 income statement
Answer:
$2,460,000 loss
Explanation:
Calculation for What before-tax amount(s) should the company report as loss on discontinued operations in its 2021 income statement
Using this formula
Loss on discontinued operations in its 2021=Division's loss from operations for 2021+ (Division's book value - Fair value )
Let plug in the formula
Loss on discontinued operations in its 2021=$1,820,000+( $3,050,000 -$2,410,000)
Loss on discontinued operations in its 2021=$1,820,000+$640,000
Loss on discontinued operations in its 2021=$2,460,000
Therefore before-tax amount(s) should the company report as loss on discontinued operations in its 2021 income statement is $2,460,000

Beech Manufacturing makes expanded and is now making two products: Standard and Deluxe. Each Standard model takes 1.5 machine hours and the Deluxe model requires 2 machine hours. The company predicted it would produce 1,100 units of the Standard Model and 770 units of the Deluxe Model during July. The company uses units of input (machine hours) to budget utility costs. The utility rate per machine hour is $0.35. During July, the company produced 1200 units of the Standard model and 850 units of the Deluxe model and used 3400 machine hours. What is the utilities flexible budget for July
Answer:
Beech Manufacturing
The utilities flexible budget for July is:
= $1,225
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Utility rate per machine hour = $0.35
Standard Deluxe Total
Predicted production 1,100 770 1,870
Expected machine hours 1,650 3,080 4,730
Units produced 1,200 850 2,050
Standard machine hour/unit 1.5 2
Budgeted machine hours
(flexible budget) 1,800 1,700 3,500
Actual machine hours used 3,400
Utilities Static Budget = $1,655.50 (4,730 * $0.35)
Utilities Flexible Budget = $1,225 (3,500 * $0.35)
Utilities Actual Budget = $1,190 (3,400 * $0.35)
Suppose you are an aide to a U.S. Senator who is concerned about the impact of a recently proposed excise tax on the welfare of her constituents. You explained to the Senator that one way of measuring the impact on her constituents is to determine how the tax change affects the level of consumer surplus enjoyed by the constituents. Based on your arguments, you are given the go-ahead to conduct a formal analysis, and obtain the following estimates of demand and supply:
Qd=500-5P
Qs-2P-60
(a) What are the equilibrium quantity and equilibrium price? Graph your solution.
(b) If a $2 excise tax is levied on this good, what will happen to the equilibrium price and quantity? Show the changes in your graph from part (a).
(c) How much tax revenue does the government earn with the $2 tax?
Answer:
(a) P = 80 and Q= 100
(b) P = 80.57 and Q= 97.15
(c) Tax revenue = 194.3
Explanation:
Qd= 500 - 5P
Qs = 2P - 60
(a)
In equilibrium
[tex]Qd = Qs \\500 - 5P = 2P - 60 \\7P = 560 \\P = 80 \\[/tex]
Putting this value of P back into the Qd or Qs equation
[tex]Qd = 500 - 5p\\Q = 500 - 5 (80) \\Q = 500 - 400 \\Q = 100[/tex]
Thus, equilibrium price is 80 and equilibrium quantity is 100
(b)
When a tax is imposed the supply curve shifts up to the left by the amount of the tax. The new supply curve is given by
[tex]Qs = 2(P-2) - 60 \\Qs = 2p - 4 - 60 \\Qs = 2P - 64[/tex]
The new equilibrium is
[tex]Qd = Qs \\500 - 5P = 2P - 64 \\7P = 564\\P = 80.57 \\[/tex]
Substitute it into Qs or Qd we get
[tex]Q = 500 - 5 (80.57 ) \\Q = 97.15[/tex]
(c)
[tex]Tax revenue = Tax rate * Quantity \\ = 2 * 97.15\\ = 194.3[/tex]
a. At equilibrium the quantity demanded is equal to the quantity that was supplied.
Qd = Qs
500 - 5p = 2p - 60
We collect like terms from here
500+60 = 2p+5p
560 = 7p
p = 560/7
p = 80 dollars.
Therefore the equilibrium price is 80 dollars.
The equilibrium quantity
Qd = 500 - 5p
= 500-5*80
= 500-400
= 100
The equilibrium quantity is 100
b. Qs = 2p+60
2p = Qs + 60
divide through by 2
p = 0.5Qs + 30
P = 0.5Qs + 30 + t
where we have tax = t = 2
= 0.5Qs + 30 + 2
= 0.5Qs + 32
p - 32 = 0.5Qs
divide through by 0.5
Qs = 2p - 64
The demand function is still the same at Qd = 500 - 5P.
At equilibrium: Qd = Qs
2P- 64 = 500-5P
collect like terms
7P = 500+64
7P = 564
divide through by 7
P = 564/7
P = $80.57
When we put this in the demand function
Q = 500-5P
Q = 500-5*80.57
Q = 97.14
This is the equilibrium quantity
500-5*80.57
= 400-402.85
= 97.15 dollars
c. the tax revenue = 2x97.15
= 194.3 dollars

Suppose you are planning to invest your saving in a fixed income fund. you feel you can mange to deposit 700 at the end of the first year, 500 at the end of the second year ,300 at the end of the third year, and 600 at the end of the fourth year. If the fund earns 6 percent interest each year. The terminal value of this uneven cash flow stream at the end of Year 4 is _____.
Answer:
$2,314
Explanation:
Calculation for what The terminal value of this uneven cash flow stream at the end of Year 4 is
First step is to calculate the terminal Value at the end of the first year
Terminal Value at the end of the first year=$700(1+0.06)^3
Terminal Value at the end of the first year=$833.7
Second step is to calculate the terminal Value at the end of the second year
Terminal Value at the end of the second year=$500(1+0.06)^2
Terminal Value at the end of the second year=$561.8
Third step is to calculate the terminal Value at the end of the third year
Terminal Value at the end of the third year=$300(1+0.06)^1
Terminal Value at the end of the third year=$318
Now let calculate the terminal value of this uneven cash flow stream at the end of Year 4
Terminal Value at the end of year 4=$833.7+$561.8+$318+$600
Terminal Value at the end of year 4=$2,313.5
Terminal Value at the end of year 4=$2,314 (Approximately)
Therefore The terminal value of this uneven cash flow stream at the end of Year 4 is $2,314
Dr. Yuan opens a lab. The lab has an initial cost of $100,000. Expected net cash flow is $24,000 in the first year, growing by 15% per year. Net cash flow is revenue less expenses. Assume the lab has a 6 yr life and there is no scrap value for the lab.
Later that same year, Dr. Bhat opens a similar lab in the strip mall less than two miles away from Dr. Yuan. Dr. Yuan estimates her net cash flow in the first year will be considerably less than her initial estimate. She estimates it will be $16,000. All else equal, what happens to the NPV of Dr. Yuan’s lab?
a) The NPV decreases, but is still positive. Dr. Yuan can still expect a positive return on her investment.
b) The IRR decreases, but is still positive. Dr. Yuan can still expect a positive return on her investment.
c) The IRR decreases, and becomes negative. Dr. Yuan should expect a loss on this investment.
d) The IRR and the NPV decrease. Dr. Yuan can still expect a positive return on her investment.
Assume instead that Dr. Yuan forms a partnership with Dr. Bhat. They agree to share the $100,000 cost equally and to share the cash flow equally. Because of efficiency gains from longer operating hours, they expect the net cash flow to be $32,000 per year. Assume they expect net cash flow to grow at 15% per year. What is the consequence of the partnership to Dr. Yuan? Please compare the results to the original scenario described in question 13 (Dr. Yan opening the only lab in the area).
a) The NPV decreases, but is still positive. Dr. Yuan can still expect a positive return on her investment.
b) The NPV decreases, and becomes negative. Dr. Yuan should expect a loss on this investment.
c) The IRR decreases, but is still positive. Dr. Yuan can still expect a positive return on her investment.
d) The IRR and the NPV increase. Dr. Yuan can still expect a positive return on her investment
Answer:
d
d
Explanation:
Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
Only projects with a positive NPV should be accepted. A project with a negative NPV should not be chosen because it isn't profitable.
When choosing between positive NPV projects, choose the project with the highest NPV first because it is the most profitable.
Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after-tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested
NPV and IRR can be calculated with a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 0 = $-100,000
Cash flow in year 1 = $24,000
Cash flow in year 2 = $24,000 x 1.15
Cash flow in year 3 = $24,000 x 1.15^2
Cash flow in year 4 = $24,000 x 1.15^3
Cash flow in year 5 = $24,000 x 1.15^4
Cash flow in year 6 = $24,000 x 1.15^5
I = 10 %
NPV = $46,718,00
IRR = 22.85%
Similar Strip Mall
Cash flow in year 0 = $-100,000
Cash flow in year 1 = $16,000
Cash flow in year 2 = $16,000 x 1.15
Cash flow in year 3 = $16,000 x 1.15^2
Cash flow in year 4 = $16,000 x 1.15^3
Cash flow in year 5 = $16,000 x 1.15^4
Cash flow in year 6 = $16,000 x 1.15^5
I = 10 %
NPV = $2188
IRR = 9.33%
It can be seen that both the IRR and NPV decreases but still remain positive. So, Dr. Yuan can still expect a positive return on her investment.
The partnership
Cash flow in year 0 = $100,000/ 2 =$-50,000
Cash flow in year 1 = $32,000 / 2
Cash flow in year 2 = ($32,000 x 1.15)/2
Cash flow in year 3 = ($32,000 x 1.15^2)/2
Cash flow in year 4 = ($32,000 x 1.15^3)/2
Cash flow in year 5 = ($32,000 x 1.15^4)/2
Cash flow in year 6 = ($32,000 x 1.15^5)/2
I = 10 %
NPV = $47,812
IRR = 34.49%
It can be seen that the NPV and IRR are both higher when compared with the first scenario

Hyperinflations ultimately are the result of excessive growth rates of the money supply; the underlying motive for the excessive money growth rates is frequently a government's: A. desire to increase prices throughout the economy. B. inability to conduct open-market operations. C. need to generate revenue to pay for spending. D. responsibility to increase nominal interest rates by increasing expected inflation.
Answer:
C. need to generate revenue to pay for spending.
Explanation:
Inflation can be defined as the persistent rise in the price of goods and services in an economy.
Generally, inflation usually causes the value of money to fall and as a result, it imposes more cost on an economy.
Furthermore, when this persistent rise in the price of goods and services in an economy becomes rapid, excessive, unbearable and out of control over a period of time, it is generally referred to as hyperinflation
Hence, hyperinflations ultimately are the result of excessive growth rates of the money supply; the underlying motive for the excessive money growth rates is frequently a government's need to generate (tax) revenue to pay for spending.
Taxation can be defined as the involuntary or compulsory fees levied on individuals or business entities by the government to generate revenues used for funding public institutions and activities.
