Answer:
$24,000
Explanation:
The computation of the interest expense is shown below:
= Borrowed amount × rate of interest
= $200,000 × 12%
= $24,000
We simply multiplied the borrowed amount with the rate of interest so that the interest expense could come
hence, the third option is correct
The Allied Group is considering two investments. The first investment involves a packaging machine, which can be used to package garments for shipping orders to customers. The second possible investment would be a molding machine that would be used to mold the mannequin parts.
The first possible investment is the packaging machine, which will cost $14,000. The second investment, the molding machine, would cost $12,000. The expected cash flows for the two projects are given below and the cost of capital to the firm is 15%. Both machines will be unusable after five years and have no salvage value.
The net cash flows for the two possible projects are given in the following table:

Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Investment X:
Annual payment= $5,200 per year for eight years
Investment Y;
Annual payment= $7,300 per year for five years
Discount rate= 15%
To calculate the present value, first, we determine the future value. Then the present value.
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual payment
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
Investment X:
FV= {5,200*[(1.15^8) - 1]} / 0.15
FV= $71,379.46
PV= 71,379.46/1.15^8
PV= $23,334.07
Investment Y:
FV= {7,300*[(1.15^5) - 1]} / 0.15
FV= $49,219.38
PV= 49,219.38/1.15^5

You want to receive $5000 per month for 20 years in real dollars in an account when you retire in 35 years. The first monthly payment to be received 1 month after you retire. The nominal return on your investment is 9.94 percent and the inflation rate is 3.2 percent. What is the real amount you must deposit each year for 35 years to achieve your goal
Answer:
The real amount you must deposit each year for 35 years to achieve your goal is $5,359.02
Explanation:
To calculate the real amount we need to calculate the real interest rate as follow
1 + Nominal rate = ( 1 + Real rate ) x ( 1 + Inflation rate )
1 + 9.94% = ( 1 + Real rate ) x ( 1 + 3.2% )
1.0994 = ( 1 + Real rate ) x 1.032
1 + Real rate = 1.0994 / 1.032
1 + Real rate = 1.06531
Real rate = 1.06531 - 1
Real rate = 0.06531
Real rate = 6.531% = 6.53%
We need to calculate the PV of the payment that should be received.
Use the following formula to calculate the present value
PV of Annuity = Annuity payment x ( 1 - ( 1 + Interest rate )^-numbers of annuity payments ) / Interest rate
Where
Annuity Payment = $5,000 per month
Interest rate = 6.53% / 12 = 0.5442%
Numbers pf annuity payments = 20 years x 12 payments per year = 240 payment
PLacing values in the formula
PV of Annuity = $5,000 x ( 1 - ( 1 + 0.5442% )^-240 ) / 0.5442%
PV of Annuity = $5,000 x 133.80362
PV of Annuity = $669,018.09
Now calculate the amount of deposit required to receive the payment after retirement.
Use the following formula to calculate the real deposit
Future value of annuity = Annuity Payment x ( 1 + Interest rate )^numbers of annuity payments - 1 ) / Interest rate
Where
Future value of annuity = $669,018.09
Interst rate = 6.53%
Numbers of annuity payment = 35 years x 1 payment per year = 35 payments
Annuity payment = Real amount of deposit = ?
Placing values in the formula
$669,018.09 = Real amount of deposit x ( 1 + 6.53% )^35 - 1 ) / 6.53%
$669,018.09 = Real amount of deposit x 124.83967
Real amount of deposit = $669,018.09 / 124.83967
Real amount of deposit = $5,359.02
A merchant plans to sell two models of home computers at costs of $250 and $400, respectively. The $250 model yields a profit of $45 and the $400 model yields a profit of $50. The merchant estimates that the total monthly demand will not exceed 250 units. Find the number of units of each model that should be stocked in order to maximize profit. Assume that the merchant does not want to invest more than $70,000 in computer inventory. (See Exercise 21 in Section 9.2.)
Answer:
That is there is maximum profit when 250 units of $250 model computer and 50 units of $400 model computer is stocked.
Explanation:
Let x represent the number of $250 model and let y represent the number of $400 model. Since the total monthly demand will not exceed 250 units, hence:
x + y < 250 (1)
Also the merchant does not want to invest more than $70,000, hence:
250x + 400y < 70000 (2)
x, y ≥ 0
Plotting the equations using geogebra online graphing tool. The solution to the problem is at (0,0), (200, 50), (250,0), (0, 175).
The profit equation is:
Profit = 45x + 50y
At (0,0); Profit = 45(0) + 50(0) = 0
At (250,0); Profit = 45(250) + 50(0) = $11250
At (0,175); Profit = 45(0) + 50(175) = 8750
At (200,50); Profit = 45(200) + 50(50) = $11500
Therefore the maximum profit is at (200, 50). That is there is maximum profit when 250 units of $250 model computer and 50 units of $400 model computer is stocked.

Second deposit= $24,659.07
Third deposit= 13,000*(1.055^2)=
Third deposit=$14,469.33
Total= $58,445.13
Therefore How much will be available when it is ready to buy the equipment, assuming the account pays 5.5 interest is $58,445.13
In The Last Lecture video, Randy Pausch informs his audience about his health situation and then goes into sharing his childhood dreams that he was able to achieve. Through his lecture, he is able to demonstrate the leadership competencies commonly identified among leaders from around the world. In a PowerPoint presentation, Analyze seven key leadership competencies observed in The Last Lecture Identify how these competencies relate to various leadership styles. Determine how these leadership competencies apply to organizational success.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Unfortunately, you did not attach the link to the video.
However, what we can do is to share some leadership competencies commonly identified among leaders from around the world so you cant use this information to prepare your PowerPoint Presentation.
Let's start with two leadership traits that are included in the famous speech delivered by professor Randy Pausch titled "Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams," on September 18, 2007, at McConomy Auditorium at Carnegie Mellon University.
When Pausch was referring to his dream of being a professional football player in the NFL, he said his high school coaches taught him various leadership lessons.
Persistence. No matter the coach was hard on him, he understood the value of being persistent and never surrender.
Own the fundamentals. He understood during his football practices that fundamentals were the basis for everything. So you have to work on your fundamentals to do things right.
Feedback. Leaders like to give feedback, although it comes in screams and shouts. Pausch understood that if the coach was hard on him, was because the coach was interested in him and wanted him to improve as a player and as a person.
Enthusiasm. Pausch said that coach Graham taught him the trait of enthusiasm. No matter what happened, players and coaches had to show enthusiasm all the time.
Acceptance. Pausch commented that when he was at Electronics Arts, he learned about the importance to accept the experience, which for him was to get what you receive that you did not want.
Be a role model. You have to be a role model when you are in command, and he set the example of Captain Kirk in the Star Trek TV series.
Being an Imagineer. He said that imagination was very important to create new and useful new things.

Jim and Joan owned a farm which produced fruits and vegetables for sale. The farm was located in a heavily populated area. Every year, hundreds of customers came to buy produce from them at the farm. One day, customers were surprised to see that the farm stand was gone and that Jim and Joan had sold the property for a much higher price than farm land would normally cost. Which principle of value did the appraiser use in determining the value of the property?
Answer:
Highest and best use
Explanation:
The highest and best use principle explains the probable as well as reasonable and legal use of lands that are vacant as well as improved property. This property or land must be financially feasible and be supported appropriately so that the result gives highest value.
Bob manages a cafe. He pays $50,000 for labor and $7,000 for space rental every month. He chose the current space and gave up another site which costs $8,000/month. Bob also refused an acquistion proposal of $600,000 raised by a restaurant. The proposal plans to close down the cafe. What is the opportunity cost in this case
Answer:
$600,000
Explanation:
Opportunity cost also known as implicit cost is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives.
the next best option to Bob is to sell the cafe. If he did, he would have earned $600,000. This is his opportunity cost.
$50,000 constitutes a variable cost while $7000 is a fixed cost.
Fixed costs are costs that do not vary with output. e,g, rent, mortgage payments
If production is zero or if production is a million, Rent payments do not change - it remains the same no matter the level of output.
Variable costs are costs that vary with production
If a producer decides not to produce any output, there would be no need to hire labour and thus no need to pay hourly wages.

Answer:
Internal rate of Return = 17%
Explanation:
Solution:
In order to solve this question, there are two methods to solve. First one is through the use of Factor Tables values, which is bit lengthy. And Second one is through the use of Excel.
Here, I will be solving through the use of Factor Tables.
Using Factor Tables Method:
First we need to know the formula to calculate the interest rate:
P = A x [tex]\frac{(1 + i)^{n} - 1 }{i(1 + i)^{n} }[/tex]
From the above formula, we need to find the P/A.
P/A = [tex]\frac{(1 + i)^{n} - 1 }{i(1 + i)^{n} }[/tex]
Where, P = $800,000
A = $250,000
So, the P/A = 3.2
Now, you need to check out the factor tables for the value interest rate against the value of P/A 3.2 for 5 years.
You will get interest rate of 16% for P/A 3.2743 for 5 years,
And
You will get interest rate of 18% for P/A 3.1272 for 5 years.
But, our P/A value is 3.2 only and it lie between these two points.
So, now, we need to find the internal rate of return which will be our correct answer.
Internal Rate of Return = [tex]i_{a}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{(P/A)_{a} - (P/A)_{c} }{(P/A)_{a} - (P/A)_{b} } (i_{b} - i_{a})[/tex]
Where,
[tex]i_{a}[/tex] = 18% = 0.18
[tex](P/A)_{a}[/tex] = 3.1272
[tex]i_{b}[/tex] = 16% = 0.16
[tex](P/A)_{b}[/tex] = 3.2743
By plugging in the values, we will get the internal rate of return.
Internal rate of Return = 0.170
Internal rate of Return = 17%
has assets with a market value of $100 million, $10 million of which are cash. has debt of $40 million, and 10 million shares outstanding. Suppose that distributes $10 million as a dividend. Assuming perfect capital markets, what will new market debt-equity ratio be after the dividend is paid
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate new stock price.
Current stock price = (Assets market value - debt) / Number of shares outstanding.
= (100 - 40)/10
= $6
Assets value after dividend distribution = 100 - 10
= 90
Number of shares purchased = 10/6 = 1.667 million shares
New stock price = (90 - 40)/(10 - 1.667)
= $7.20
Debt equity ratio = Debt / Equity
Equity = Stock price × number of shares
= $ (7.20 × (10 - 1.667)
= $ (7.2 × 8.33)
= $60
Debt = 40
Debt equity = 40/60 = 0.667 times

The NPV and IRR method occasionally do not agree on accept/reject decisions when evaluating an investment proposal.
True or False?
The NPV and IRR method occasionally do not agree on accept/reject decisions when evaluating an investment proposal. The given statement is False.
Why positive NPV should be accepted?A project or venture has a positive NPV if the estimated earnings, discounted for their present value, are more than the anticipated costs, also expressed in today's currency. A positive NPV indicates an investment that is likely to be successful. Net loss will arise from an investment with a negative NPV.
The total of the investment's anticipated cash inflows and outflows, discounted back to their present value at a risk-adjusted rate, is known as the net present value. Project acceptance is granted if the NPV exceeds $0. The project is turned down in any other case.
Thus, the given statement is False.

The current spot exchange rate is $1.55/€ and the three-month forward rate is $1.50/€. Based on your analysis of the exchange rate, you are confident that the spot exchange rate will be $1.52/€ in three months. Assume that you would like to buy or sell €1,000,000. What actions do you need to take to speculate in the forward market? Group of answer choices Sell euro today at the spot rate, buy them forward. Take a long position in a forward contract on €1,000,000 at $1.50/€. Buy euro today at the spot rate, sell them forward. Take a short position in a forward contract on €1,000,000 at $1.50/€.
Answer:
The answer is "Take a long position in a forward contract on €1,000,000 at $1.50/€".
Explanation:
In the long position cause the purchasing of the money, and it will be paying: [tex](1.5 \times 1,000,000) = \$ 1,500,000[/tex]
And you're also planning to sell and get on the markets: [tex](1.52 \times 1,000) = \$ 1,520,000.[/tex]
Therefore, you'll get: [tex]\$1,520,000 - \$1,500,000 = \$20,000.[/tex]
Suppose the rate of return on short-term government securities (perceived to be risk-free) is about 5%. Suppose also that the expected rate of return required by the market for a portfolio with a beta of 1 is 14%. According to the capital asset pricing model: a. What is the expected rate of return on the market portfolio
Answer:
The expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 14%.
Explanation:
The expected rate of return on the market portfolio can be calculated using the following capital asset pricing model (CAPM) formula:
Er = Rf + B[E(Rm) - Rf] ...................... (1)
Where:
Er = Expected rate of return on the market portfolio = ?
Rf = Risk-free rate = 5%
B = Beta = 1
E(Rm) = Market expected rate of return = 14%
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Er = 5 + 1[14 - 5]
Er = 5 + 1[9]
Er = 5 + 9
Er = 14%
Therefore, the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 14%.
Dioxin emission that results from the production of paper is a good example of a negative externality because a. self-interested paper producers will not consider the full cost of the dioxin pollution they create. b. self-interested paper firms are generally unaware of environmental regulations. c. toxic emissions cause firms to produce less than the socially optimal amount of paper. d. there are fines for producing too much dioxin.
Answer:
a. self-interested paper producers will not consider the full cost of the dioxin pollution they create.
Explanation:
Externality basically causes the market to produce a large amount or little amount of goods and service, thereby causing an inefficient distribution or allocation of resources.
Therefore, when the manufacturing or consumption of a particular product by the consumers leads to an additional cost for a third party, it is known as negative externality.
Hence, Dioxin emission that results from the production of paper is a good example of a negative externality because self-interested paper producers will not consider the full cost of the dioxin pollution they create.

To complete the model of international trade using the PPF, we must also use the idea of indifference curves. One of these curves represent: * a set of alternate quantities of both goods (sloped negatively), whereby consumers are equally satisfied in their level of utility gained. a fixed quantity of one good (such as wheat) and a varying amount of the other good. consumers who are indifferent to everything. producers who do not care which production method is chosen.
Answer:
The answer is "The first choice".
Explanation:
In this model the international exchange, its limitation of output, commonly called PPF, that is just a sequence with products in which the customers want a degree of power is derived from of the set and in other terms indifference from the whole category of products, which is why the set of alternate amounts from both goods (negative slopes) satisfy customers equally.
A company purchased a new delivery van at a cost of $46,000 on July 1. The delivery van is estimated to have a useful life of 4 years and a salvage value of $3,400. The company uses the straight-line method of depreciation. How much depreciation expense will be recorded for the van during the first year ended December 31?
Answer:
The amount of depreciation expense that will be recorded for the van during the first year ended December 31 is $5,325.
Explanation:
Since the company uses the straight-line method of depreciation, the annual depreciation expenses can first be calculated using the following formula:
Annual depreciation expense = (Cost of the asset - Salvage value) / Useful life ............ (1)
Where;
Cost of the asset = $46,000
Salvage value = $3,400
Useful life = 4
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Annual depreciation expense = ($46,000 - $3,400) / 4
Annual depreciation expense = $10,650
Since July 1 to December 31 is just half of the year, the amount of depreciation expense that will be recorded for the van during the first year ended December 31 is the halve of the annual depreciation expense that can be calculated as follows:
Depreciation expense to be recorded = Annual depreciation expense / 2 = $10,650 / 2 = $5,325

Colter Steel has $4,800,000 in assets. Temporary current assets $ 1,600,000 Permanent current assets 1,530,000 Fixed assets 1,670,000 Total assets $ 4,800,000 Assume the term structure of interest rates becomes inverted, with short-term rates going to 12 percent and long-term rates 2 percentage points lower than short-term rates. Earnings before interest and taxes are $1,020,000. The tax rate is 40 percent. If long-term financing is perfectly matched (synchronized) with long-term asset needs, and the same is true of short-term financing, what will earnings after taxes be
Answer:
Long-term financing need:
Permanent current assets $1,530,000
Fixed assets $1,670,000
Total $3,200,000
Short-term financing need:
Temporary current assets $1,600,000
Long-term interest expense $320,000
Short-term interest expense $192,000
Total interest expense $512,000
EBIT $1,020,000
Interest expense $512,000
Earnings before taxes $508,000
Taxes $203,200
Earnings after taxes $304,800
Workings:
Long-term interest expense =10%× $3,200,000 = $320,000
Short-term interest expense =12% × $1,600,000 = $192,000
Taxes = 40% × $508,000 = $203,200
