A small neighborhood comprised of 10 homes has a problem with break-ins and find the local police to be effective. They are considering hiring private security. Each household can calculate their marginal benefit of having a private security guard by the formula MB=100/(1+S) where S is the number of hours of security patrol provided per week.

If private security is a public good and the cost is $20 per hour, what is the efficient level of security? Do you expect this to be the equilibrium outcome?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The efficient level of security is 4 hours of security.

The equilibrium may not be sustainable.

Explanation:

In order to calculate the efficient level of security we would Set MB=MC i.e. guard's wage for net benefit maximization.

Hence, 100/(1+S)=20

20*(1+S)=10

1+S=5

S=4

Therefore, 4 hours of security is needed . The efficient level of security is 4 hours of security.

In the followig case Security guards is public good in this case, Public good is non-excludable and non-rivalrous. People cannot be stopped from using it without paying for it. Payment for security guard is voluntary. So, equilibrium may not be sustainable.

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

Answers

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

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.

Answers

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

Beta Corporation's common stock is selling for $52 per share on the New York Stock Exchange. Beta Corporation's price-earnings ratio is

Answers

Answer:

The price earnings ratio for Beta corporation is 8 times

Explanation:

The formula for price-earnings ratio is the stock market price divided by the  stock earnings per share.

The stock market price has been given as $52 per share

the earnings per share=net income-preferred dividends/weighted average number of shares

net income is $325,000

preferred dividends is $0

weighted average number of shares is 50,000

earnings per share=($325,000-$0)/50,000=$6.5

price earnings ratio=$52/$6.5= 8 times

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?

Answers

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

Eckert Company is involved in producing and selling high-end golf equipment. The company has recently been involved in developing various types of laser guns to measure yardages on the golf course. One small laser gun, called LittleLaser, appears to have a very large potential market. Because of competition, Eckert does not believe that it can charge more than $84 for LittleLaser. At this price, Eckert believes it can sell 119,000 of these laser guns. Eckert will require an investment of $14,875,000 to manufacture, and the company wants an ROI of 16%. Determine the target cost for one LittleLaser.

Answers

Answer:

Target cost per unit = $64

Explanation:

Target cost is the cost at which a product must be produced and sold to achieve a desired profit margin

Target cost =(Sales revenue - (ROI × capital) )/ No of units

Target cost =( (84 ×  119,000) - (16%×  $14,875,000 )  )/ 119,000 guns

Target cost per unit =  (9996000 - 2380000) / 119,000 units= $ 64  per unit

Target cost per unit = $64

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

Answers

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.

Accrued Expenses are a liability and when a liability decreases that means that the company has used some cash to pay it off. This is a cash payment which falls under Operating Expenses because they were expenses owed and now they have been paid for.

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

Answers

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

d. Assume no income limit on the expense election. Calculate the amount of depreciation for 2017 including bonus depreciation and the election to expense that Mike can deduct

Answers

Answer:

a. Calculate the amount of depreciation for 2017 using financial accounting straight-line depreciation (not the straight-line MACRS election) over the truck's estimated useful life.

depreciation expense per year = $42,000 / 5 = $8,400

depreciation expense for 2017 = $8,400 x 9/12 = $6,300

b. Calculate the amount of depreciation for 2017 using the straight-line depreciation election, using MACRS tables over the minimum number of years with no bonus depreciation or election to expense

using MACRS table, depreciation expense = $42,000 x (20%/2 due to half year) = $4,200

c. Calculate the amount of depreciation for 2017, including bonus depreciation but no election to expense, that Mike could deduct using the MACRS tables

= ($42,000 / 2) + $4,200 = $21,000 + $4,200 = $25,200

A zero coupon bond with a face value of $1,000 is issued with an initial price of $415.50. The bond matures in 10 years. What is the implicit interest, in dollars, for the first year of the bond's life

Answers

Answer:

$38.14

Explanation:

The yield to maturity on the bond can be computed using the rate formula in excel as shown below:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is the bond life measured in years which is 10

pmt is the annual coupon payment since the bond zero coupon ,pmt is $0

pv is current price of the bond which is $415.50

fv is the face value of the bond i.e $1000

=rate(10,0,-415.50,1000)=9.18%

implicit interest in dollars for first year=cash proceeds*yield to maturity

cash proceeds which is the same as price of bond is $415.50

implicit interest in dollars=$415.50*9.8%=$38.14

Change in Reserves: $_____________ Change in Deposits: $_______________
Change in Loans: $_______________

Answers

Answer:

Change in Reserves: –$30    

Change in Deposits: –$300  

Change in Loans: –$270    

Explanation:

The calculation of each element of the balance sheet is as follows:

Change in Reserves = Amount withdrawn by Ava * Reserve requirement faced by Second Bank = $300 * 10% = $30. This is a reduction and will be negative in the Second Bank's Balance Sheet.

Change in Deposits = Amount withdrawn by Ava = $300. This is a reduction and will be negative in the Second Bank's Balance Sheet.

Change in loan = Amount withdrawn by Ava - Change in Reserves = $300 - $30 = $270. This is a reduction and will be negative in the Second Bank's Balance Sheet.

Change in Reserves: –$30    .

Change in Deposits: –$300  

Change in Loans: –$270    

Calculation of change in reserves, deposits and loans:

Since

Change in Reserves = Amount withdrawn by Ava * Reserve requirement faced by Second Bank

= $300 * 10%

= $30.

This represent a reduction and will be negative on the Second Bank's Balance Sheet.

Now

Change in Deposits = Amount withdrawn by Ava

= $300.

This is a reduction and will be negative on the Second Bank's Balance Sheet.

And,

Change in loan = Amount withdrawn by Ava - Change in Reserves

= $300 - $30 = $270.

This is a reduction and will be negative in the Second Bank's Balance Sheet.

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.

Answers

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.

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?

Answers

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!

On January 1, 2017, the City of Graf pays $68,000 for a work of art to display in the local library. The city will take appropriate measures to protect and preserve the piece.

Explanation:

Financial statements are the formal records of financial activities and position of an individual, a business, or other entity. The relevant financial information is typically presented in a structured manner and in an understandable form.

Financial statements can include balance sheet, income statement, statement of cash flows, the notes to accounts and statement of changes in equity.

In each dropdown that follows, select the correct sign [less than ( <), greater than (> ), or equal (=)] for each comparison, assuming periods of rising prices. 1. FIFO inventory LIFO inventory 2. FIFO cost of goods sold LIFO cost of goods sold 3. FIFO net income LIFO net income 4. FIFO income taxes LIFO income taxes b. Why would management prefer to use LIFO over FIFO in periods of rising prices? Income shown on the company’s tax return would be lower if LIFO rather than FIFO is used. Income shown on the company’s tax return would be higher if LIFO rather than FIFO is used. Cost of goods sold shown on the company’s income statement would be lower if LIFO rather than FIFO is used. Dividends shown on the company’s financial statements would be higher if LIFO rather than FIFO is used.

Answers

Answer:

1. FIFO inventory is greater than (>) LIFO inventory.

2. FIFO cost of goods sold is less than (<) LIFO cost of goods sold.

3. FIFO net income is greater than (>) LIFO net income.

4. FIFO income taxes are greater than (>) LIFO income taxes.

b. Income shown on the company’s tax return would be lower if LIFO rather than FIFO is used.

Explanation:

FIFO and LIFO are accounting methods used in managing costs related to inventory, stock repurchases at different times and financial activities associated with monetary costs a company had tied up within inventory of feedstocks, raw materials, produced goods, and equipment parts.

Simply stated, FIFO and LIFO are accounting methods is used for the valuation of the cost of goods sold and ending inventory of a company.

FIFO is an acronym for "First In, First Out" and it assumes oldest unit of inventory is sold first, meaning goods that were first added to inventory are the first goods removed from inventory for sale and are recorded as sold first.

LIFO is an acronym for "Last In, First Out" and it assumes last unit to arrive in inventory is sold first, meaning goods that were last added to inventory are the first goods removed from inventory for sale and are recorded as sold first.

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.

Answers

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

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.)

Answers

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

Santa Klaus Toys just paid a dividend of $3.00 per share. The required return is 11.7 percent and the perpetual dividend growth rate is 3.9 percent. What price should this stock sell for five years from today?

Answers

Answer:

P5=48.3860

Explanation:

Santa Klaus Toys

The Price of the stock 5 years from today will be :

P5=D6/(r-g)=

D0*(1+g)^6/(r-g)

Where

D0 =3

g =3.9%

r=11.7%

Hence:

P5=3*(1+3.9%)^6/(11.7%-3.9%)

P5=3*(1+0.039)^6/(0.117-0.039)

P5=3*(1.039)^6/(0.078)

P5=3.77410/0.078

P5=48.3860

The payment terms are either on account or cash purchases. If the purchases are made on cash, they will not increase accounts payable.

Since this is a retailer, the items purchased are allocated to inventory, but in other cases they could be allocated to different departments, e.g. sales, manufacturing, etc.
