Answer:
A. p(x) = (-1/10)x + 450x
B. 506,250
C. $280
Explanation:
(a) Calculation to Find the demand function
Let assume that the demand Q(p) is the LINEAR function of the price
Q(350) = 1000
dQ/dp = -100/10 = -10
Point-slope form :
Q-1000 = -10(p-350)
Q-1000 = -10p + 3500
Q= -10p+(3500+1000)
Q = -10p + 4500
Hence,
Q(p) = -10p +4500
The inverse is:
(Q-4500)/-10 = p
(-1/10)Q + 450 = p
Hence, p(x) = (-1/10)x + 450 where Q=x
Therefore the the demand function will be p(x) = (-1/10)x + 450x
(b) Calculation for How large a rebate should the company offer the buyer in order to maximize its revenue
Revenue = Price * Qauntity sold
R(p) = p*Q(p)
Revenue = p * (-10p + 4500)
Revenue= -10p^2 + 4500p
let Maximize:
0 = dR/dp = -20p + 4500
-4500 = -20p
p=-4500/-20
p = 450/2 = 225
Hence, Max. revenue
-10 (225)^2 + 4500 *225
= -506,250 + 1,012,500
= 506,250
Therefore How large a rebate should the company offer the buyer in order to maximize its revenue will be 506,250
(c) Calculation for how should the manufacturer set the size of the rebate in order to maximize its profit
Let C(x) represent cost to produce x television sets
Let C(Q(p)) represent cost to produce the demanded quantity
C(q(p)) = 61,000 + 110*Q(p)
C(q(p)) = 61,000 + 110* (-10p +4500)
C(q(p)) = 61,000 + -1,100p + 495,000
C(q(p)) = 556,000 - 1,100p
let calculate the profit using this formula
Profit = Revenue - Cost
Let plug in the formula
P(p) = -10p^2 + 4,500p - ( 556,000 - 1,100p)
P(p) = -10p^2 + 4,500p -556,000 + 1,100p
P(p) = -10p^2 + 5,600p - 556,000
Maximizing:
0=dP/dp = -20p + 5,600
Hence, maximizing profit occurs at price p=-5,600/-20 = $280
Therefore how should the manufacturer set the size of the rebate in order to maximize its profit will be $280

Consider the decision to purchase either a 5-year corporate bond or a 5-year municipal bond. The corporate bond is a 12% annual coupon bond with a par value of $1,000. It is currently yielding 11.5%. The municipal bond has an 8.5% annual coupon and a par value of $1,000. It is currently yielding 7%. Assume that your marginal tax rate is 35%. What is the after tax yield to maturity (YT
Answer:
MUNICPAL BOND YTM; r= 7.00%
CORPORATE BOND YTM; r= 7.35%
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
To get the after tax yield to maturity (YTM)
MUNICPAL BOND
Purchase price PV of coupons + PV of Face value at maturity
[(1000×8.5%) × (1 - 1.07⁻⁵] / 0.07) + (1000/1.07⁵)
348.516 + 712.98 = 1061.5
After-tax coupon payment 1000 × 8.5% = 85
COUPONS RECORD ON MUNICIPAL ARE
TAX-EXCEMPT.
Par value 1000
Calculated YTM 1061.5 = (85× (1-(1+r)⁻⁵)/r) + (1000/(1+r)⁵)
r= 7.00%
CORPORATE BOND
Purchase price PV of coupons +PV of Face value at maturity
((1000×12%) × (1-1.115⁻⁵)/0.115) +(1000/1.115⁵)
437.985 + 580.264 = 1018.25
After-tax coupon payment 1000 × 12% × (1 - 35%) = 78
Par value 1000
Calculated YTM 1018.25 = (78× (1-(1+r)⁻⁵)/r) + (1000/(1+r)⁵)
r= 7.35%
MUNICPAL BOND YTM; r= 7.00%
CORPORATE BOND YTM; r= 7.35%

Based on past experience, Maas Corp. (a U.S.-based company) expects to purchase raw materials from a foreign supplier at a cost of 1,000,000 francs on March 15, 2021. To hedge this forecasted transaction, on December 15, 2020, the company acquires a call option to purchase 1,000,000 francs in three months. Maas selects a strike price of $0.58 per franc when the spot rate is $0.58 and pays a premium of $0.005 per franc. The spot rate increases to $0.584 at December 31, 2020, causing the fair value of the option to increase to $7,500. By March 15, 2021, when the raw materials are purchased, the spot rate has climbed to $0.59, resulting in a fair value for the option of $10,000. The raw materials are used in assembling finished products, which are sold by December 31, 2021, when Maas prepares its annual financial statements.

Suppose you know that a company's stock currently sells for $57 per share and the required return on the stock is 10.4%. You also know that the total return on the stock is evenly divided between capital gains yield and dividend yield. If it's the company's policy to always maintain a constant growth rate in its dividends, what is the current dividend per share?
What is the dividend per share in Year 4?
Answer:
$2.82
Explanation:
Calculation for what is the current dividend per share
First step is to calculate the Dividend yield
Dividend yield= 1/2 (.104)
Dividend yield= .052
Now let calculate the current dividend per share
Current dividend per share=(.052*57 per share)/(1+0.052)
Current dividend per share= 2.964/1.052
Current dividend per share=$2.82
Therefore the Current dividend per share will be $2.82
A shoe company will make a new type of shoe. The fixed cost for the production will be $24,000. The variable cost will be $31 per pair of shoes. The shoes will sell for $100 for each pair. How many pairs of shoes will have to be sold for the company to break even on this new line of shoes
Answer:
Break-even point in units= 348
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The fixed cost for the production will be $24,000. The variable cost will be $31 per pair of shoes. The shoes will sell for $100 for each pair.
To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 24,000 / (100 - 31)
Break-even point in units= 347.82 = 348
The ACE Equity Fund has an expected return E[r] of 11.830% and the ZQR Bond Fund has an expected return E[r] of 6.690%. A portfolio comprised of 3% ACE and 97% ZQR would have an expected return of __________%. (percent, rounded three places after decimal)
Answer:
The answer is "6.8442%".
Explanation:
The expected portfolio return is the total average portfolio return for all stocks
ACE fund weight (wA) =3%
ACE fund (ErA) expected return= 11.830%
Bond fund ZQR weight (wB) = 97%.
The ACE fund (ErB) expected return = 6.690%
Expected portfolio return = [tex](wA \times ErA)+(wB \times ErB)[/tex]
[tex]=(3\% \times 11.830 \% )+(97 \% \times 6.690\%)\\\\= 0.03 \times 0.1183 +0.97 \times 0.0669 \\\\=0.003549+ 0.064893\\\\=0.068442\\\\=6.8442 \%[/tex]

The graphical representation depicts the risk of the securities, against their expected return. Therefore, the correct option is A.
On December 31, 2021, L Inc. had a $2,000,000 note payable outstanding, due July 31, 2022. L borrowed the money to finance construction of a new plant. L planned to refinance the note by issuing long-term bonds. Because L temporarily had excess cash, it prepaid $550,000 of the note on January 23, 2022. In February 2022, L completed a $3,500,000 bond offering. L will use the bond offering proceeds to repay the note payable at its maturity and to pay construction costs during 2022. On March 13, 2022, L issued its 2021 financial statements. What amount of the note payable should L include in the current liabilities section of its December 31, 2021, balance sheet
Answer:
$550,000
Explanation:
Based on the information given we were told that the company temporarily had excess cash in which the company prepaid the amount of $550,000 of the note because the company had planned to refinance the note by issuing long-term bonds which means that the amount of the note payable that the company should include in the current liabilities section of its December 31, 2021, balance sheet will be the amount of $550,000 which represent the prepaid amount reason been that any amount that was been excluded as current Liabilities amount due to refinancing cannot in any way be greater than the amount that was actually refinanced in the nearest future.
Explain how each of the following is presented in a multiple-step income statement. Sale of marketable securities at a loss. Adjusting entry to create (or increase) the allowance for doubtful accounts. Entry to write off an uncollectable account against the allowance. Adjusting entry to increase the balance in the marketable securities account to a higher market value.
Answer:
Presentation of a Multiple-step Income Statement
1. Sale of marketable securities at a loss.
In the non-operating section of the income statement
2. Adjusting entry to create (or increase) the allowance for doubtful accounts.
In the operating section of the income statement
3. Entry to write off an uncollectible account against the allowance.
In the operating section of the income statement
4. Adjusting entry to increase the balance in the marketable securities account to a higher market value.
In other comprehensive income section of the income statement
Explanation:
The sale of marketable securities at a loss gives rise to a realized loss. This is recorded in the non-operating section of the income statement after the operating section. Items 2 and 3 are recorded in the operating section of the income statement, as they relate to the entity's normal operations. Item 4 refers to an unrealized gain. This is recorded in the other comprehensive income section just as unrealized losses. The other comprehensive income section shows the comprehensive income and expenses, which refer to changes in equity that originate from non-operating sources.
Dobles Corporation has provided the following data from its activity-based costing system: Activity Cost Pools Estimated Overhead Cost Expected Activity Assembly $228,060 18,000 machine hours Processing orders $34,068 1,200 orders Inspection $125,560 1,720 inspection hours The company makes 420 units of product D28K a year, requiring a total of 460 machine hours, 80 orders, and 10 inspection-hours per year. The product's direct materials cost is $48.96 per unit, and its direct labor cost is $25.36 per unit. Use activity-based costing to compute the unit product cost of product D28K.
Answer:
Dobles Corporation
The unit product cost of product D28K is:
$144.01
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Activity Cost Pools Estimated Overhead Cost Expected Activity
Assembly $228,060 18,000 machine hours
Processing orders $34,068 1,200 orders
Inspection $125,560 1,720 inspection hours
Units of D28K produced per year = 420 units
D28K requirements:
Machine hours 460
Orders 80
Inspections 10
Direct materials cost per unit = $48.96
Direct labor cost per unit = $25.36
Activity rate:
Assembly $228,060/18,000 = $12.67 per machine hour
Processing orders $34,068/1,200 = $28.39 per order
Inspection $125,560/1,720 = $73 per inspection-hour
Cost of D28K:
Machine hours 460 * $12.67 = $5,828
Orders 80 * $28.39 = $22,712
Inspections 10 * $73 = $730
Total overhead costs = $29,270
Overhead cost per unit = $69.69 ($29,270/420)
Unit Cost of D28K:
Direct materials cost per unit = $48.96
Direct labor cost per unit = $25.36
Overhead cost per unit = $69,69
Total unit cost = $144.01
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 financial analysis allows you to understand the strong a corporation's finances throughout the study of capital markets, which's very helpful. Mercedes typically produce short-term misprice for resources as well as the returns are created by an investor/fund manager. These gains also are called Alpha. Economic analysis shows whether an organization handles its money. Economic reporting in project management is useful to recognize its competitive edge of a capital market business and, ultimately, that company(asset) sells efficiently over a lengthy sector.
Consider two neighboring island countries called Arcadia and Felicidad. They each have 4 million labor hours available per week that they can use to produce jeans, corn, or a combination of both. The following table shows the amount of jeans or corn that can be produced using 1 hour of labor.
Jeans Corn
Country (Pairs per hour of labor) (Bushels per hour of labor)
Arcadia 8 16
Felicidad 5 20
Initially, suppose Arcadia uses 1 million hours of labor per week to produce jeans and 3 million hours per week to produce corn, while Felicidad uses 3 million hours of labor per week to produce jeans and 1 million hours per week to produce corn. Consequently, Arcadia produces 8 million pairs of jeans and 48 million bushels of corn, and Felicidad produces 15 million pairs of jeans and 20 million bushels of corn. Assume there are no other countries willing to trade goods, so, in the absence of trade between these two countries, each country consumes the amount of jeans and corn it produces.
Arcadia's opportunity cost of producing 1 pair of jeans is____of corn, and Felicidad's opportunity cost of producing 1 pair of jeans is____of corn. Therefore,____has a comparative advantage in the production of jeans, and____has a comparative advantage in the production of corn.
Suppose that each country completely specializes in the production of the good in which it has a comparative advantage, producing only that good. In this case, the country that produces jeans will produce ___ million pairs per week, and the country that produces corn will produce ____ million bushels per week.
When the two countries did not specialize, the total production of jeans was 23 million pairs per week, and the total production of corn was 68 million bushels per week. Because of specialization, the total production of jeans has increased by____million pairs per week, and the total production of corn has increased by____million bushels per week.
Because the two countries produce more jeans and more corn under specialization, each country is able to gain from trade.
Calculate the gains from trade—that is, the amount by which each country has increased its consumption of each good relative to the first row of the table. In the following table, enter this difference in the boxes across the last row (marked “Increase in Consumption”).

Answer:
Arcadia's opportunity cost of producing 1 pair of jeans is 2 bushels of corn, and Felicidad's opportunity cost of producing 1 pair of jeans is 4 bushels of corn. Therefore, Arcadia has a comparative advantage in the production of jeans, and Felicidad has a comparative advantage in the production of corn.
Suppose that each country completely specializes in the production of the good in which it has a comparative advantage, producing only that good. In this case, the country that produces jeans will produce 32 million pairs per week, and the country that produces corn will produce 80 million bushels per week.
When the two countries did not specialize, the total production of jeans was 23 million pairs per week, and the total production of corn was 68 million bushels per week. Because of specialization, the total production of jeans has increased by 9 million pairs per week, and the total production of corn has increased by 12 million bushels per week.
Because the two countries produce more jeans and more corn under specialization, each country is able to gain from trade.
Calculate the gains from trade—that is, the amount by which each country has increased its consumption of each good relative to the first row of the table. In the following table, enter this difference in the boxes across the last row (marked “Increase in Consumption”).

Michael's, Inc., just paid $2.60 to its shareholders as the annual dividend. Simultaneously, the company announced that future dividends will be increasing by 5.6 percent. If you require a rate of return of 9.8 percent, how much are you willing to pay today to purchase one share of the company's stock
Answer:
$65.37
Explanation:
Calculation for how much are you willing to pay today to purchase one share of the company's stock
Using this formula
P/0 = D0 ( 1 + g ) / R-g
Let plug in the formula
P/0 = $2.60 (1 + .056) / .098 - .056
P/0 = $2.60 (1 .056)/0.042
P/0=$2.7456/0.042
P/0=$65.37
Therefore how much are you willing to pay today to purchase one share of the company's stock will be $65.37
The amount of money withheld from an employee's paycheck is...
A.Payroll deductions
B.Levied taxes
C.FICA
D.Gross earnings
Answer:
A.Payroll deductions
Explanation:
Withholding is the action by employers to retain a portion of an employee's salary for a specific function. Money withheld does not get to the employee bank's account. The amount withheld is shown in the pay stub, but the employee will not access it.
Employers collect the amounts withheld and remit them to the concerned agency. Deductions are usually a percentage of the employee's gross pay.
The slope of the PPF can also be expressed as the ratio of the marginal products of labor to the marginal product of capital. consumer utility. the opportunity cost of the good measured on the horizontal axis. the ratio of abundance of labor to capital.
Answer:
the opportunity cost of the good measured on the horizontal axis.
Explanation:
The Production possibilities frontiers is a curve that shows the various combination of two goods a company can produce when all its resources are fully utilised.
The PPF is concave to the origin. This means that as more quantities of a product is produced, the fewer resources it has available to produce another good. As a result, less of the other product would be produced. So, the opportunity cost of producing a good increase as more and more of that good is produced.

On its previous balance sheet, at 12/31/2019, the company had reported $555,000 of retained earnings. No shares were repurchased during 2020. How much in dividends did Heaton pay during 2020?
a. $47,381
b. $49,875
c. $57,881
d. $55,125
e. $52,500
Answer:
e. $52,500
Explanation:
Beginning balance of retained earnings= $555,000
Net earning for the period=$172,500
Closing retained earnings balance for the period: $675,000
Closing retained earning =Beginning balance + net earnings - dividend
$675000 = $555,000 +$172,500- Dividends
$675000 = $727,500 - Dividends
Dividends = $727,500 - $675,000
Dividends =$52,500
Although appealing to more refined tastes, art as a collectible has not always performed so profitably. Assume that in 2015, an auction house sold a statute at auction for a price of $10,710,500. Unfortunately for the previous owner, he had purchased it in 2010 at a price of $12,738,500. What was his annual rate of return on this sculpture
Answer:
-3.41%
Explanation:
The computation of the annual rate of return is shown below;
We use the formula:
Future value = Present value × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years
$10,710,500 = $12,738,500 × (1 + rate of interest)^5
($10,710,500 ÷ $12,738,500)^(1 ÷ 5) = (1 + rate of interest)
(1 + rate of interest) = 0.965913622
r = (0.965913622 - 1) × 100
= -3.41%
