Answer:
the balance of the account at the end of 10 years is $377,336.78
Explanation:
The computation of the balance of the account at the end of 10 years is shown below;
Future value = PMT × [((1 + rate of interest)^time period - 1) ÷ rate of interest]
= $30,000 × [((1 + 0.05)^10 -1) ÷ 0.05]
= $30,000 [((1 + 0.62889 - 1) ÷ 0.05
= $30,000 × 12.5779
= $377,336.78
Hence, the balance of the account at the end of 10 years is $377,336.78
The market risk premium is 9.0%, and the risk-free rate is 5.0%. If the expected return on a bond is 9.5%, what is its beta?
Answer:
The beta is 1
Explanation:
The computation of beta using the CAPM model is shown below:
As we know that
Expected rate of return = Risk free rate of return + Beta × Market risk premium
9.5% = 5% + Beta × 9.0%
9.5% - 5% = Beta × 9.0%
9.0% = Beta × 9.0%
So, the beta is 1
We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

XYZ Corporation, whose common stock is currently selling for $40 per share, is having a rights offering. The terms of the offering require 10 rights plus $35 to subscribe to one share of stock. Compute the theoretical value of a right before the ex-rights date.
Answer:
$0.45
Explanation:
Computation for the theoretical value of a right before the ex-rights date
Using this formula
Theoretical value=(Common stock-Required offering subscription shares)÷(Offering require right+1)
Let plug in the formula
Theoretical value= ($40 ‒ $35) ÷ (10+1)
Theoretical value= $5.00 ÷ 11
Theoretical value=$0.45
Therefore the theoretical value of a right before the ex-rights date will be $0.45
Hanson Inc. has the following variable manufacturing overhead standard to manufacture one Zippy:
1.5 standard hours per Zippy at $3.00 per direct labor hour
Last week, 1,550 hours were worked to make 1,000 Zippies, and $5,115 was spent for variable manufacturing overhead.
1. Hanson’s rate variance (VMRV) for variable manufacturing overhead for the week was:_______.
a. $465 unfavorable.
b. $400 favorable.
c. $335 unfavorable.
d. $300 favorable
2. Hanson’s efficiency variance (VMEV) for variable manufacturing overhead for the week was:______.
a. $435 unfavorable.
b. $435 favorable.
c. $150 unfavorable.
d. $150 favorable.
Answer:
Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance= $465 unfavorable
Variable overhead efficiency variance= $150 unfavorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Standard:
1.5 standard hours per Zippy at $3.00 per direct labor hour
Actual:
1,550 hours to make
1,000 Zippies
$5,115 was spent
To calculate the variable overhead rate variance, we need to use the following formula:
Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance= (standard rate - actual rate)* actual quantity
Actual rate= 5,115/1,550= $3.3
Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance= (3 - 3.3)*1,550
Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance= $465 unfavorable
To calculate the variable overhead efficiency variance, we need to use the following formula:
Variable overhead efficiency variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*Standard rate
Variable overhead efficiency variance= (1.5*1,000 - 1,550)*3
Variable overhead efficiency variance= $150 unfavorable
One of your team members is struggling with preparation of balance sheet and he needs your assistance in completing it. He has come up with following missing information. You are required to complete this Balance sheet.
Assets Liabilities & Equity
Cash $ 100,000 Current Liabilities
Receivables Long Term Debt
Inventory Total Debt
Plant Common Equity $ 600,000
Total Assets Total Claims
Additional Information:
Current Ratio is 2.5 ; Average Collection Period is 54 days ; Total Debt to Total Assets 40 percent ; Total Asset Turnover is 2 ; Inventory Turnover 5.
Answer:
Balance sheet
Cash $100,000 Current Liabilities $320,000
Receivables $300,000 Long Term Debt $80,000
Inventory $400,000 Total Debt $400,000
Plant $200,000 Common Equity $600,000
Total Assets $1,000,000 Total Claims $1,000,000
Explanation:
a) Total Debt to Total Assets 40 percent:
This means that Equity = 60% (100 - 40%)
If Equity is 60% = $600,000, total claims or assets will be equal to $600,000/60% = $1,000,000
Therefore, total debt = $400,000 (40% of $1,000,000)
b) Total Asset Turnover is 2:
If total assets = $1,000,000 and the total asset turnover is 2 or Turnover/Assets = 2, where total assets = $1,000,000,
Therefore, Turnover = $2,000,000 ($1,000,000 * 2)
c) Inventory Turnover is 5:
Inventory Turnover = Turnover/Inventory = 5
= $2,000,000/Inventory = 5
Inventory = $2,000,000/5 = $400,000
d) Average Collection Period is 54 days:
= Accounts Receivable/Sales x 365 = 54
Accounts Receivable = $2,000,000/365 * 54 = $296,000 or approximately $300,000
Current assets:
Cash = $100,000
Receivables $300,000
Inventory = $400,000
Total = $800,000
e) Current liabilities = Current assets/2.5
= $800,000/2.5
= $320,000
f) Plant = Total assets - current assets
= $1,000,000 - $800,000
= $200,000
g) Long term debt = Total debt - Current liabilities
= $400,000 - $320,000
= $80,000

Michelle Duncan wants to know her affordable home purchase price. Her annual gross income is $49,800. She has $820 per month of other debt and expects her property taxes and homeowners insurance to cost $270 per month. She knows she can get a 8.50%, 30-year mortgage so that her mortgage payment factor is $7.69. She expects to make a 25% down payment. What is Michelle's affordable home purchase price? (Round your answer to the nearest dollar amount.)
a) $21,110
b) $253,316
c) $63,329
d) $84,439
e) $48,710
Answer:
d) $84,439
Explanation:
We can use the rule of 28/36 to calculate Michelle's affordable home purchase. She should only spend up to 28% of her monthly income on housing expenses and up to 36% of her monthly income paying for debt service.
monthly salary = $49,800 / 12 = $4,150
her total monthly amount to pay for debt service = $4,150 x 36% = $1,494
she is already paying $820 per month for other debts, so her monthly payment should be less than: $1,494 - $820 = $674
her total monthly amount to pay for housing expense = $4,150 x 28% = $1,162
she is planning on paying $270 in related house expenses, so her monthly payment should be less than: $1,162 - $270 = $892
out of the five options, Michelle cannot afford to buy the $253,316 house, but she can afford to buy the $84,439 house.
[($21,110 x 0.75) / $1,000] x 7.69 = $121.75 monthly payment
[($253,316 x 0.75) / $1,000] x 7.69 = $1,461 monthly payment
[($63,329 x 0.75) / $1,000] x 7.69 = $365.25 monthly payment
[($84,439 x 0.75) / $1,000] x 7.69 = $487 monthly payment
[($48,710 x 0.75) / $1,000] x 7.69 = $280.93 monthly payment
Consider a production line with three stations. The first station can process a unit in 10 minutes. The second station has two identical machines, each of which can process a unit in 12 minutes (each unit only needs to be processed on one of the two machines). The third station can process a unit in 8 minutes. Which station is the bottleneck station? a. station 1 b. station 2 c. station 3
Answer:
a. station 1
Explanation:
A bottleneck is basically the place or station where the production process is congested or delayed because that station lacks the capacity to process work. Bottlenecks are where queues are formed, and the whole process gets delayed.
In this case, station 1 can process 6 units per hour, station 2 can process 10 units per hour and station 3 can process 7.5 units per hour. The station that processes the least number of units is station 1, so that is the station that limits the whole production system. In this case, due to station 1's low processing capacity, a lot of idle time exists in the other 2 stations.

Paid-in capital in excess of par value, common stock= 422,000
The First National Bank recently acquired three mortgages from the failed Fargo Bank. It estimates that the chances of these mortgages being repaid are 0.6, 0.4, 0.25. Assuming independence, fine the probability that:_________.
Answer:
a. 0.06
b. 0.18
Explanation:
a) all of them will be repaid
b) none of them will be repaid
P1 = 0.6, P2= 0.4, P3 = 0.25
a. The Probability that all will be repaid = (P1∩P2∩P3)
= P1 * P2 * P3 (Since independent)
= 0.6*0.4*0.25
= 0.06
Thus, the Probability that all will be repaid is 0.06
b. The Probability that none of them will be repaid = (1-P1)*(1-P2)*(1-P3)
= (1-0.6)(1-0.4)(1-0.75)
= 0.4 * 0.6 * 0.75
= 0.18
Thus, the Probability that none of them will be repaid is 0.18

Gordon Company started operations on January 1 of the current year. It is now December 31, the end of the current annual accounting period. The part-time bookkeeper needs your help to analyze the following three transactions:
a. During the year, the company purchased office supplies that cost $2,300. At the end of the year, office supplies of $670 remained on hand.
b. On January 1 of the current year, the company purchased a special machine for cash at a cost of $23,500. The machine's cost is estimated to depreciate at $2,350 per year.
c. On July 1, the company paid cash of $840 for a two-year premium on an insurance policy on the machine; coverage began on July 1 of the current year.
Answer:
Gordon Company
Analysis of Transactions at December 31:
a. Office Supplies $670 (DR)
Office Supplies Expense $1,630 (DR)
b. Equipment $23,500 (DR)
Accumulated Depreciation on Equipment $2,350 (CR)
Depreciation Expense - Equipment $2,350 (DR)
c. Prepaid Insurance $630 (DR)
Insurance Expense $210 (DR)
Explanation:
1. The Office Supplies Account will be debited with $2,300 and credited with $1,630 ($2,300 - $670) as Office Supplies Expense (used supplies) for the year. This will leave a debit balance of $670 in the account.
2. The equipment account will be maintained at its cost, while a contra account (accumulated depreciation) is created to accumulate the depreciation expenses over the years. The useful life of the equipment is 10 years ($23,500/$2,350) with an annual depreciation expense of $2,350.
3. The Prepaid Insurance Account will be debited with $840 and credited with $210 ($840/4) representing Insurance that expired during the year for six months. The balance of $630 is carried forward for the remaining one and half years.

Retaining employees is one of the critical issues faced by the organization all over the globe for many years, that how to retain some of the skilled and knowledgeable employees in the organization who can add value to their organizational performance. However, this worry is explained well enough by the cost that indulges to substitute employees who leave the organization and problems that they face while attracting and hiring a new employee. Now, in most of the countries, some employees could not be able to fill out some vacancies which are with higher difficulty is the real sad back in the development of their career. Therefore, in such a scenario, human resource management practices gain vital importance to assist in reducing turnover intentions. (Fabi, Lacoursiere & Raymond, 2015)
In previous studies, AMO model (ability, motivation, and opportunity) the human resource practices were studied as in three other dimensions that are, the first bundle of the bundle of practice connected with the skill level of an employee, second bundle of practice was related with the motivation-enhancing and the third one was linked with the extent of opportunity one employee could get to contribute (Jiang, Lepak, Hu & Baer, 2012). Moreover, in this study, these 3 bundles of human resource practices are redefined as one set with the name of high-performance work practices. This research aims to study the impact of three sets of practices at the individual level on the employee intention to leave which explains a high-performance work system at the one side and employee intention to leave on the other side. Previously, researchers didn’t aim to study the whole effect of individual human resource practices on the employee quit intentions.
The banking sector of Pakistan is consists of thirty-one banks including five representing the public sector and four banks are from abroad, the remaining twenty-two banks are registered as private banks. Moreover, the majority of the banking business is derived from a few selected banks that have perfect competition among them. Six banks are having a major part of banking skills in Pakistan. Generally, these banks collectively hold 57% of deposits and contribute up to 53% of the economy of Pakistan. Additionally, the state bank of Pakistan is the regulatory authority of the banking sector in Pakistan, and further, it gives direction to commercial banks. Overall, the volume of this sector is on a larger scale but against 195 million of the population, only 43 million bank accounts are registered; this is considered a huge gap due to lack of technology knowledge, and some religious groups perceive the concept of conventional banking is against Sharia.

Burnett Corp. pays a constant $8.90 dividend on its stock. The company will maintain this dividend for the next 12 years and will then cease paying dividends forever. If the required return on this stock is 11 percent, what is the current share price?
Answer:
Price today = $57.78196973 rounded off to $57.78
Explanation:
The dividends paid by the stock can be said to be in the form of an annuity as the dividend payment is constant, it occurs after equal interval of time and it is expected for a finite or limited period of time. These satisfy the conditions of being an annuity. We assume that the dividend are paid at the end of the year and this is in form of an ordinary annuity.
To calculate the present value of the stock today, we will use the formula for present value of ordinary annuity. The formula for present value of annuity is attached.
Price today = 8.9 * [ (1 - (1+0.11)^-12) / 0.11 ]
Price today = $57.78196973 rounded off to $57.78

Suppose Shaan invested just $10,000 of his own money and had a $90,000 mortgage with an interest rate of 8.5 percent. After three years, he sold the property for $120,000.
(a) What is his gross profit?
(b) What is his net profit or loss? (Input the amount as a positive value.)
(c) What is the rate of return on investment? (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
a. $20,000
b. -$2,950
c. -29.50%
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. Gross Profit is
= Sale value of Property - Invested amount - Mortgage amount
= $120,000 - $10,000 - $90,000
= $20,000
b. Net Profit
= Gross profit - number of years × mortgage amount × rate of interest
= $20,000 - 3 × $90,000 × 8.5%
= -$2,950
And,
c) Rate of return is
= Net profit ÷ invested amount

Why is it relevant that finance tends to attract large amounts of money?
Explanation:
An organization to be successful in the long term and competitive in the market, needs financial capital to carry out its activities, for this they open the company's capital to investors, who are the capital holders willing to inject capital into the company and receive dividends business, thus becoming a partner of that company.
It is essential that companies attract investors willing to inject a large amount into the business, as this benefits both, since a company with larger amounts of assets will produce more, have its obligations up to date and remain better positioned in the market.
To attract investors to a company, it is necessary that the company has a good reputation in the market and there is a favorable negotiation process, where there is a demonstration of results and the opportunity that the investor will have to invest his money in an organization that will generate profits.
In an effort to avoid recession, the government implements a tax rebate program, effectively cutting taxes for households. We would expect this to:_______. A. affect neither aggregate supply nor aggregate demand. B. increase aggregate demand. C. reduce aggregate demand. D. reduce aggregate supply.
Answer:
B. increase aggregate demand.
Explanation:
A recession can be defined as a period of significant fall in the economic performance such as employment, production, income level, sales of goods and services etc, of a particular country lasting over a few months.
In an effort to avoid recession, the government implements a tax rebate program, effectively cutting taxes for households. Thus, we would expect this to increase aggregate demand.
Aggregate demand (AD) can be defined as the total quantity of output (final goods and services) that is demanded by consumers at all possible price levels in an economy at a particular time.
On a standard Aggregate demand (AD)-Aggregate supply (AS) curve, the y axis denotes the Price (P) of goods and services while the x axis typically denotes the Output (Q) of final goods and services.
In the short-run, a rightward shift in the aggregate supply (AS) curve causes output to increase and result in a price fall (lower price) while a rightward shift in the aggregate demand (AD) curve also cause output to increase and rise in prices.
The short-run nominal fluctuations basically cause a change in the level of production. In the short-run, as a result of a shift in the aggregate supply; an increase in money consequently to result in increase the level of production (output).
Hence, more goods are produced as a result of the increased output (supply) and more goods would be purchased as a result of their lower prices.
Spiro Corp. uses the sum-of-the-years' digits method to depreciate equipment purchased in January year 1 for $20,000. The estimated salvage value of the equipment is $2,000 and the estimated useful life is four years. What should Spiro report as the asset's carrying amount as of December 31, year 3
Answer:
Carrying value on Dec 31, Year 3= $3,800
Explanation:
Depreciable amount = Cost - Salvage Value
Depreciable amount = 20,000-2,000
Depreciable amount = $18,000
Sum of years’ digits = 1+2+3+4 = 10
Depreciation for Year 1 = 18,000*4/10 = 7,200
Depreciation for Year 2 = 18,000*3/10 = $5,400
Depreciation for Year 3 = 18,000*2/10 = $3,600
Carrying value on Dec 31, Year 3 = Purchase cost - Depreciation
Carrying value on Dec 31, Year 3 = $20,000 - $7,200 - $5,400 - $3,600
Carrying value on Dec 31, Year 3= $3,800
A ________ is an unsecured bond, and most of the bonds sold today in the United States are of this type.A) mortgage bondB) debentureC) senior bondD) bond indenture
Answer:
B) debenture
Explanation:
A bond refers to a debt or fixed investment security, in which a bondholder (creditor or investor) loans an amount of money to the bond issuer (government or corporations) for a specific period of time.
Generally, the bond issuer is expected to return the principal at maturity with an agreed upon interest to the bondholder, which is payable at fixed intervals.
A debenture is an unsecured bond, and most of the bonds sold today in the United States are of this type because it's a long-term security that yields fixed rate of interest.
What is the present value of a $2,000 payment made in five years when the discount rate is 9 percent? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
PV= $1,299.86
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Future Value ( FV)= $2,000
Number of periods (n)= five years
Discount rate (i)= 9% = 0.09
To calculate the present value (PV), we need to use the following formula:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 2,000 / (1.09^5)
PV= $1,299.86
