A University is offering a charitable gift program. A former student who is now 50 years old is consider the following offer: The student can invest $8,900.00 today and then will be paid a 9.00% APR return starting on his 65th birthday (i.e For a $10,000 investment, a 9% rate would mean $900 per year). The program will pay the cash flow for this investment while you are still alive. You anticipate living 21.00 more years after your 65th birthday. The former student wants a return of 6.00% on his investments, but would like to consider this opportunity.

Required:
Using the student's desired return, what is the value of this deferred annuity today on his 50th birthday?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of this deferred annuity today on his 50th birthday is $2,621.27.

Explanation:

Since the student's desired return of 6% will also start to be paid starting on his 65th birthday, the value of this deferred annuity today on his 50th birthday can be calculated by first calculating the value of the investment on the 65th birthday.

We therefore proceed with the following two steps:

Step 1: Calculation of the value of the investment on the 65th birthday

The value of the investment on the 65th birthday can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:

PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)

Where;

PV at 65 = Present value of the annuity at 65th birthday =?

P = Annuity payment = Invested amount * Student's desired return = $8,900 * 6% = $534

r = Student's desired return rate = 6%, or 0.06

n = number of more years anticipate to live after 65th birthday = 21

Substitute the values into equation (1) to have:

PV at 65 = $534 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.06))^21) / 0.06)

PV at 65 = $534 * 11.764076621288

PV at 65 = $6,282.02

Therefore, the value of the investment on the 65th birthday is $6,282.02.

Step 2: Calculation of the value of this deferred annuity today on his 50th birthday

The value of this deferred annuity today on his 50th birthday can therefore be calculated using the simple present value for as follows:

PV at 50 = PV at 65 / (1 + r)^N …………………………….. (2)

Where;

PV at 50 = the value of this deferred annuity today on his 50th birthday = ?

PV at 65 = Present value of the annuity at 65th birthday = $6,282.02

r = Student's desired return rate = 6%, or 0.06

N = number of years from 50th birthday to 65th birthday = 65 - 50 = 15

Substitute the values into equation (2) to have:

PV at 50 = $6,282.02 / (1 + 0.06)^15

PV at 50 = $6,282.02 / 2.39655819309969

PV at 50 = $2,621.27

Therefore, the value of this deferred annuity today on his 50th birthday is $2,621.27.

• What are the advantages and disadvantages of owning versus outsourcing for each of these components (staff, computer servers, software licensing, and data storage)?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation below

Explanation:

Outsourcing simply involves the act of contracting our certain business activities and processes to third-party providers.  

Staff

When you outsource your staff, you can be able to save cots and use the freed capital for other things but the disadvantage would certainly be around the issue of confidentiality of business information.  

When you outsource computer servers, software licensing, and data storage, you would gain access to world-class capabilities because the third-party providers would likely provide them to meet their customers.  

There would also be shared risks as part of the benefits. The disadvantages could include loss of control. People who discourage outsourcing of these functions are of the opinion that third-party vendor cannot be able to match the level of responsiveness and levels of services that could be offered by an in-house team

You want a seat on the board of directors of Red Cow, Inc. The company has 260,000 shares of stock outstanding and the stock sells for $51 per share. There are currently 5 seats up for election. The company uses straight voting. How much will it cost you to guarantee that you will be elected to the board

Answers

Answer:

$2,210,051

Explanation:

The computation of the cost that would be guaranteed is shown below:

first find the number of shares controlled which is

= (S x N) ÷  (D + 1) ] + 1

Where,

S = the total number of shares

N  = the number of directors required

D  = total number of directors i.e. elected

So,

= (260,000 × 1) ÷ (5 + 1) + 1

= 43,334

Now the cost is

= 43,334 × $51

= $2,210,051

After visiting several automobile dealerships, Richard selects the used car he wants. He likes its $10,000 price, but financing through the dealer is no bargain. He has $2,000 cash for a down payment, so he needs an $8,000 loan. In shopping at several banks for an installment loan, he learns that interest on most automobile loans is quoted at add-on rates. That is, during the life of the loan, interest is paid on the full amount borrowed even though a portion of the principal has been paid back. Richard borrows $8,000 for a period of four years at an add-on interest rate of 11 percent. What is the total interest on Richard’s loan? What is the total cost of the car? What is the monthly payment? What is the annual percentage rate (APR)?

Answers

Answer:

A. $3,520

B. $13,520

C. $240 monthly

D. 21.55%

Explanation:

A. Calculation for the total interest

Using this formula

Interest = (Principal) (Rate) (Time)

Let plug in the formula

Interest = (8000)(.11)(4)

Interest = $3,520

B. Calculation for the total cost of the car

Using this formula

Total Cost = Down Payment + Principal amount Borrowed + Interest amount

Let plug in the formula

Total Cost = $2,000 + $8,000 + $3,520

Total Cost = $13,520

C. Calculation for the monthly payment

Using this formula

Monthly Payment = (Principal amount Borrowed + Total interest amount ) / Total number of payments

Monthly Payment = ($8,000 + $3,520) / 48

Monthly Payment=$11,520/48

Monthly Payment=$240 monthly

Note 4-year * 12 months will give us 48months

D. Calculation for the annual percentage rate (APR) using this formula

APR= (2 × n × I) / [P × (N + 1)]

Let plug in the formula

APR = (2 × 12 × $3,520) / [$8,000 × (48+1)]

APR =$84,480/$8,000×49

APR=$84,480/$392,000

APR=0.2155×100

APR= 21.55%

Leonard, a company that manufactures explosionproof motors, is considering two alternatives for expanding its international export capacity. Option 1 requires equipment purchases of $900,000 now and $560,000 two years from now, with annual M&O costs of $79,000 in years 1 through 10. Option 2 involves subcontracting some of the production at costs of $280,000 per year beginning now through the end of year 10. Neither option will have a significant salvage value.

Required:
Use a present worth analysis to determine which option is more attractive at the company’s MARR of 20% per year. (Note: Check out the spreadsheet exercises for new options that Leonard has been offered recently.)

Answers

Answer:

Since the total present value of Option 2 of – $1,453,892 is lower than the total present value of Option 1 of – $1,620,094, it implies that Option 2 costs less and more attractive at the company’s MARR of 20% per year than Option 1. Therefore, Option 2 should be selected.

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of the total present values (in bold red color) of the two alternatives for expanding international export capacity.

Present worth can be described as an equivalence method of analysis in which the cash flows of an investment or a project are discounted to a single present value.

From the attached excel file, we have:

Total present value of Option 1 = – $1,620,094

Total present value of Option 2 = – $1,453,892

Since the total present value of Option 2 of – $1,453,892 is lower than the total present value of Option 1 of – $1,620,094, it implies that Option 2 costs less and more attractive at the company’s MARR of 20% per year than Option 1. Therefore, Option 2 should be selected.

Formation of Corporation with Transfer of Property from Several Shareholders at Different Times (LO. 1, 7)Jane, Jon, and Clyde incorporate their respective businesses and form Starling Corporation. On March 1 of the current year, Jane exchanges her property (basis of $50,000 and fair market value of $150,000) for 150 shares in Starling Corporation. On April 15, Jon exchanges his property (basis of $70,000 and fair market value of $500,000) for 500 shares in Starling. On May 10, Clyde transfers his property (basis of $90,000 and fair market value of $350,000) for 350 shares in Starling.a. If the three exchanges are part of a pre-arranged plan, who will recognize a gain on the exchanges?SelectOnly ClydeOnly JaneAll of the partiesNone of the partiesCorrect 1 of Item 1.b. Now assume that Jane and Jon exchanged their property for stock four years ago, while Clyde transfers his property for 350 shares in the current year. Clyde's transfer is not part of a pre-arranged plan with Jane and Jon to incorporate their businesses.Clyde will recognize a gain of $ on the transfer.c. Returning to the original facts, assume the property that Clyde contributes has a basis of $490,000 (instead of $90,000). Why would it be better from a tax perspective for Clyde to wait to transfer his property rather than be a part of Jane's and Jon's transfers?

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. If the three exchanges are part of a pre-arranged plan, it should be noted that none of them will recognize a gain on the exchanges. Here, my the non-recognition provision applies.

b. Based on the scenario in the question, Clyde will recognize a gain of the amount of the difference between the market value and the basis. This will be:

= $350,000 – $90,000

= $260,000

c. This is because Clyde's loss will be recognized. The loss here will be: = $350,000 - $490,000 = -$140,000.

Firms often seek to borrow money to expand their capital stock, and the price they pay for the money is the interest rate. What happens to quantity of money demanded if the interest rate increases

Answers

Answer:

When interest rate rises, the quantity of money demanded reduces

Explanation:

As interest rate increases firms seeking to borrow money for capital stock expansion are likely not going to go ahead with it. The reason is simply because, interest rate and money demanded have an inverse relationship. As interest rate rises money demanded falls because it means that for any amount of money borrowed the interest rate attached to it is higher making the cost of borrowing heavier on the borrower.

How much will the company have to receive in annual payments for 4 years, provided it will also receive a final lump sum payment after 4 years in the amount of $800,000? The MARR is 10% per year on its investment

Answer:

We are going to receive annual payment of $395,471

Explanation:

We solve for the present value of the lump-sum today:

PRESENT VALUE OF LUMP SUM

[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]  

Maturity  800,000.00

time   4.00

rate  0.1

[tex]\frac{800000}{(1 + 0.1)^{4} } = PV[/tex]  

PV   546,410.76

Now, we deduct this fromthe 1,800,000 loan:

1,800,000 - 546,410.76 = 1,253,589.24

this value will be the amount the yearly installment will ghave to pay.

Consider a multifactor model with two factors. A well-diversified portfolio (Portfolio P) has a beta of 0.75 on factor 1 and a beta of 1.25 on factor 2. The risk premiums on the factor 1 and factor 2 are 1% and 7%, respectively. The risk-free rate of return is 7%. What is the expected return on portfolio P, according to a two-factor model

Answers

Answer: 16.5%

Explanation:

Expected Return on portfolio P will be calculated as:

= Rf + (Beta1 × F1) + (Beta2 × F2)

where,

Rf = Risk Free rate

F1 = risk premium on Factor1

F2 = risk premium on Factor2

Expected Return will now be:

= 7% + (0.75 × 1%) + (1.25 × 7%)

= 7% + 0.75% + 8.75%

= 16.5%

The expected return on portfolio P, according to a two-factor model will be 16.5%.

Answer:

16.5%

Explanation:

A multi-factor model can be used to explain either an individual security or a portfolio of securities. It does so by comparing two or more factors to analyze relationships between variables and the resulting performance.

DATA

Risk Free rate  = Rf = 7%

risk premium on Factor1  = F1 =  1%

Beta (Factor 1) = 1.25

risk premium on Factor2  = F2 = 7%

Beta (Factor 1) = 2

Expected Return = Rf + (Beta1 x F1) + (Beta2 * F2)

Expected Return = 7% + (0.75 x 1%) + (1.25 x 7%)

Expected Return = 0.07 + 0.0075 + 0.0875

Expected Return = 0.165 or  16.5%

Following are several figures reported for Allister and Barone as of December 31, 2015:

Allister Barone
Inventory $50,000 $300,000
Sales 1,000,000 8,00,000
Investment income Not given
Cost of goods sold 500,000 400,000
Operating expenses 230,000 300,000

Allister acquired 90 percent of Barone in January 2020. In allocating the newly acquired subsidiary's fair value at the acquisition date, Allister noted that Barone had developed a customer list worth $66,000 that was unrecorded on its accounting records and had a six-year remaining life. Any remaining excess fair value over Barone's book value was attributed to goodwill. During 2021, Barone sells inventory costing $135,000 to Allister for $190,000. Of this amount, 20 percent remains unsold in Allister's warehouse at year-end.

Determine balances for the following items that would appear on Allister's consolidated financial statements for 2015:

a. Inventory
b. Sales
c. Cost of Goods Sold
d. Operating Expenses
e. Net Income Attributable to Non-controlling Interest

Answer:

a. $344,500

b. $1,610,000

c. $405,500

d. $530,000

e. $9,550 loss

Explanation:

First, Eliminate the Intragroup transactions as follows :

Elimination Journal for the Intragroup Sale :

Sales (Barone) $190,000 (debit)

Cost of Sales (Allister) $190,000 (credit)

Elimination of unrealized profit in closing inventory :

Cost of Sales (Barone)  $5,500 (debit)

Inventory (Allister)  $5,500 (credit)

Unrealized Profit in Inventory ($190,000 - $135,000) × 10% = $5,500

Then, Consolidate the Financial Statements taking into account the elimination journals

Note : Consolidation is 100% of Parent + 100% of Subsidiary.

Note : A firm that is exercising control (> 50% Voting Rights) is required to prepare Consolidated Financial Statements - IFRS 3.

Subsidiary Profit

Net Income Attributable to Non-controlling Interest

Net Income Attributable to Non-controlling Interest = Net Subsidiary Income × % Non Controlling Interest

Net Subsidiary Income - Barone

Sales (800,000 - 190,000)                                  $610,000

Less Cost of Sales ( 400,000 + 5,500)            ($405,500)

Net Income/ (loss)                                                ($95,500)

Therefore,

Net Income Attributable to Non-controlling Interest = ($95,500) × 10%

Answers

Answer:

A. Transfer -In= $212,000,000

B. Transfer-Out = $159,000,000

C. Ending balance= $53,000,000

Explanation:

a) Calculation for Transfers-In

Transfer -In=$46,000,000 + $76,000,000 + (.90× $100,000,000)

Transfer -In=$46,000,000 + $76,000,000 + $90,000,000

Transfer -In= $212,000,000

b) Calculation for Transfer-Out

Transfer-Out=.75 × $212,000,000

Transfer-Out = $159,000,000

c) Calculation for the ending balance

Using this formula

Ending balance=Transfer -In-Transfer-Out

Let plug in the formula

Ending balance= $212,000,000 - $159,000,000 Ending balance= $53,000,000

In the official government National Income and Product Accounts​ (NIPA), what component of investment includes purchases of new​ houses?

Answers

Answer:

Residential

Explanation:

National Income and Product Accounts often referred to as NIPA are a form of details obtained and released by the United States Bureau of Economic Analysis of the Department of Commerce. The purpose is to depict the different elements of national income and output in the economy in a given period of time. However, under national product accounts, a component of investment that includes purchases of new​ houses is "RESIDENTIAL"

Suppose there is a policy debate over whether the United States should impose trade restrictions on imported ball bearings:________.
Domestic producers of ball bearings send a lobbyist to the U.S. government to request that the government impose trade restrictions on imports of ball bearings. The lobbyist claims that the U.S. ball-bearing industry is new and cannot currently compete with foreign firms. However, if trade restrictions were temporarily imposed on ball bearings, the domestic ball-bearing industry could mature and adjust and would eventually be able to compete in the world market.
Which of the following justifications is the lobbyist using to argue for the trade restriction on ball bearings?
A. Infant-industry argument
B. Saving-domestic-jobs argument
C. Using-protection-as-a-bargaining-chip argument
D. National-security argument
E. Unfair-competition argument

Answers

Answer:

Infant-industry argument

Explanation:

Here is a paraphrased version of the lobbyist's claim and it is from here that we get our answer.

"He claims that this industry in question is new and currently cannot compete with foreign industry".

What this tells us is that this industry in question is an infant industry. An infant industry is a new industry yet to be past it's developmental stage and which cannot be compete yet with other established industries.

Lambert Company acquired machinery costing $110,000 on January 2, 2019. At that time, Lambert estimated that the useful life of the equipment was 6 years and that the residual value would be $15,000 at the end of its useful life. Compute depreciation expense for this asset for 2019, 2020, and 2021 using the:

Answers

Compute depreciation expense for this asset for 2016, 2017, and 2018 using the a. Straight-line method b. Double-declining balance method C. Assume that on January 2, 2018, Lambert revised its estimate of the useful life to 7 years and changed its estimate of the residual value to $ 10,000. What effect would this have on depreciation expense in 2018 for each of the above depreciation methods?

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

(a) Under straight-line method,

We have depreciation expense to be (cost - residual value) ÷ No of years =

=>  ($110,000 - $15,000) ÷ 6 years = $15,833 yearly depreciation expense.

Hence, the year depreciation expense of $15,833 is applicable to all the Years 2016, 2017 and 2018.

Therefore, sum of depreciation for all the three years is calculated as

=> $15,833 * 3 years = $47,499.

(b) Under the double-declining method

We have = 2 * SLDP * BV

Where SLDP = Straight - Line Depreciation Percentage

BV = Book value

Hence, SLDP is 100% ÷ 6 years = 16.67%,

Thus, 16.67% * 2 => 33.33%

Therefore, Year 2016, 33.33% * $110,000 = $36,663

For Year 2017, 33.33% * $73,337 ($110,000 - $36,663) = $24,443

For Year 2018, 33.33% * $48,894 ($73,337 - $24,443) = $16,296

Adding all the three Years together =>  2016 to 2018, => $77,402

(c) Given that after 2 years, the revised estimated useful life becomes 7 years and the residual value is $10,000, depreciation would be calculated as follows:

Under the straight-line method,

NBV = Net Book Value, at the end of 2017 is: $110,000 - $15,833 * 2 years = $78,334

Depreciation expense is therefore: ($78,334 - $10,000) ÷ 7 years = $9,762 (decrease in 2018 yearly depreciation charge)

Also,

Under the double-declining method,

SLDP is 100% ÷ 7 years = 14.29%, * 2 => 28.57%.

For Year 2018,

28.57% * $48,894 ($73,337 - $24,443) = $13,969 (decrease in 2018 yearly depreciation charge)

Answer:

the question is incomplete, so I looked for a similar question:

the requirements are:

calculate depreciation expense using straight line, double depreciation, sum of  the years' digits methods

straight line depreciation:

depreciable value = $110,000 - $15,000 = $95,000

depreciation expense per yer = $95,000 / 6 = $15,833.33

depreciation expense 2019 = $15,833depreciation expense 2020 = $15,833depreciation expense 2021 = $15,834

double declining balance:

depreciation expense 2019 = $110,000 x 2/6 = $36,667depreciation expense 2020 = ($110,000 - $36,667) x 2/6 = $24,444depreciation expense 2021 =  ($73,333 - $24,444) x 2/6 = $16,296

sum of the years' digits method:

depreciable value = $110,000 - $15,000 = $95,000

sum of years = 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 21 years

depreciation expense 2019 = $110,000 x 6/21 = $31,429depreciation expense 2020 = $110,000 x 5/21 = $26,190depreciation expense 2021 =  $110,000 x 4/21 = $20,952

Which section of a CAR Residential Purchase Agreement is a provision divided into three sections: mediation, arbitration of disputes, and additional terms?

Answers

Answer: Appraisal contingency and Removal.

Explanation:

The appraisal contingency, is a kind of CAR residential purchase agreement, which allows a buyer to back out of the deal if the house appraises for less than the already agreed-upon value. and the loan contingency, this term lets the buyer back out if he/she can't get their loan approved for the said purposes.

The section of a car residential purchase agreement that separates it into three sections would be:

Section 9C

The section titled 9C functions to separate the property purchase provisions into three varied divisions. These divisions include mediation followed by arbitration of disputes, and the external terms that fulfill the remaining ones.The other options are present in order to fulfill if either of them fails to resolve the dispute.

Thus, "section 9C" is the correct answer.

$88,427.

Explanation:

Use the Time Value of Money Techniques to find the value in 2026 (Future Value)

Where,

Pv = - $40,000

i = 12 %

Pmt = $0

P/yr = 1

n = 7

Fv = ?

In 2009, an 1893 Morgan silver dollar sold for $6,450. Required: What was the rate of return on this investment? (Do not include the percent sign (%). Enter rounded answer as directed, but do not use the rounded numbers in intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places (e.g., 32.16).)

Answers

Answer:  7.86%

Explanation:

Using the Future Value formula;

= Amount * ( 1 + r)^n

The question is looking for the rate so making that the subject would be;

Assuming the car was $1 in 1893,

And n = 2009 - 1893 = 116 years

FV = Amount * ( 1 + r)^n

( 1 + r)^n = FV/  Amount

1 ^n + r^n = FV / Amount

r = n√((FV/ Amount) / 1^n)

r =  n√(FV/ Amount)

r =  116√(6,450/ 1)

= 1.07855

Subtract 1 for the percentage;

= 1.07855 - 1

= 7.86%

Managers should make marketing decisions in the light of their own knowledge and experience instead of viewing research reports as the final answer to their problems because:

a. the number of factors included in a marketing research study are not exhaustive.
b. decisions based on marketing research reports are highly risky.
c. there is no possibility that marketing research will be affected by researcher bias.
d. marketing research is not a systematic process for obtaining information.

Answers

Answer:

a. the number of factors included in a marketing research study are not exhaustive.

Explanation:

Marketing research is highly effective as a tool for guiding marketing decisions, but it is necessary for the manager to rely on making decisions not only through research, but also due to his conceptual skills of seeing the organization in a systematic way, where there is a much greater breadth and more complex factors than just the information found through marketing research. The set of the manager's vision, experiences, analyzes and indicators is important for the most adequate assessment so that organizational marketing decisions are effective and achieve the company's objective.

Therefore, it is correct to state that the number of factors included in a marketing research study is not exhaustive.

Explanation:

the account pays a 6% annual rate, but since it is compounded semiannually, you must divide it by 2 = 6% / 2 = 3%

since no interperiod interest is paid, the semiannual payment = $200 x 6 = $1,200

What are the key factor(s) for success in this industry/market

Answers

Answer:

Strategic Focus (Leadership, Management, Planning) People (Personnel, Staff, Learning, Development) Operations (Processes, Work) Marketing (Customer Relations, Sales, Responsiveness)

Explanation:

Whether you're operating an established small business or just starting out, an effective, ongoing marketing strategy is vital. But marketing without a plan will not only waste time and money; it may alienate your customers and stall the growth of your business.

To match your marketing strategies to the needs and expectations of your target customers and ensure that your business continues to grow, start by identifying your key success factors.

Key success factors (or KSF) are business strategies that are critical to a successful relationship with your customers.

Key success factors are decided by the needs and preferences of your market and customers, not by your business. However, consumers aren't going to tell you what those KSF are. Discovering your key success factors requires researching your customers to understand who they are, what they want from your company, and what prompts them to make a purchase.

A business generally has three to five key success factors that it needs to focus on to achieve its goals. Key success factors also may relate to areas of weakness that you must overcome to create a stronger relationship with your customers.

Once you understand and begin using your key success factors, they become part of your brand and business style.
