Given a reserve requirement of 12.5%, a bank currently meets their reserve requirements with $15,000,000 in excess reserves. If the reserve requirement increases and the bank must hold an additional $1,800,000, by how many percentage points did the reserve requirement increase

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1.5%

Explanation:

Reserves is the total amount of a bank's deposit that is not given out as loans  

Required reserves is the percentage of deposits required of banks to keep as reserves by the central bank  

Excess reserves is the difference between reserves and required reserves

Total increase in reserve = $15,000,000 + $1,800,000=  $16,800,000

New excess reserve = total increase in reserve x initial reserve requirement) / initial excess reserve

($16,800,000 x 12.5%) / $15,000,000 = 14%

Increase in reserve requirement = 14% - 12.5% = 1.5%

At December 31, Gill Co. reported accounts receivable of $288,000 and an allowance for uncollectible accounts of $1,500 (credit) before any adjustments. An analysis of accounts receivable suggests that the allowance for uncollectible accounts should be 1% of accounts receivable. The amount of the adjustment for uncollectible accounts would be:

Answers

Answer:

$1,380

Explanation:

Given that;

Accounts receivables = $288,000

Allowance for uncollectible accounts = $1,500 (credit balance)

Allowance should be 1% of accounts receivables = $288,000 × 1% = 2,880

Then, the adjustment = $2,880 - $1,500 = $1,380

Therefore, the amount of the adjustment for uncollectible accounts would be $1,380

On August 1, Sparky assigned $100,000 of the accounts receivable to B Bank and received 90% of the value of the accounts assigned less a finance fee of $1,000. B Bank charges 1% per month on the outstanding loan balance. Cash collections from assigned accounts are to be remitted monthly to B Bank to cover both principal and interest payments. During August Sparky collected $30,000 in cash of the accounts receivable assigned and also accepted sales returns of $3,000 from assigned accounts. During September, Sparky collected $50,000 in cash on accounts assigned and, in addition, wrote off $2,000 of assigned accounts receivable as uncollectible. As a result of these transactions, determine the ending balance in the Accounts Receivable Assigned and Note Payable.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the ending balance in the Accounts Receivable Assigned and Note Payable is shown below:

For account receivable assigned:

Beginning account receivable $100,000

cash collected -$300,000

Sales returns - $3,000

Cash collected during September -$50,000

Uncollectible account receivable -$2,000

Ending balance of the account receivable $15,000

For note payable

Beginning balance (90% of $100,000) $90,000

Interest on the loan (1% of $90,000) $900

Cash paid during the August -$30,000

Beginning balance of September $60,900

Interest paid (1% of $60,900) $609

Cash paid during September -$50,000

Ending balance $11,509

A machine cost $1104000, has annual depreciation of $184000, and has accumulated depreciation of $874000 on December 31, 2020. On April 1, 2021, when the machine has a fair value of $253000, it is exchanged for a machine with a fair value of $1242000 and the proper amount of cash is paid. The exchange had commercial substance. The new machine should be recorded at $1127000. $1242000. $989000. $1219000.

Answers

Answer:

$1,242,000

Explanation:

The new machine is to be recorded at its Fair Value which is $1,242,000 because the exchange has a commercial substance. Asset forgone is credited by its original cost, and accumulated depreciation till date of exchange is debited. Cash paid and loss or gain is adjusted as required. But the new asset is debited by the amount of its Fair Value on the day of exchange.

Acort Industries owns assets that will have a 75% probability of having a market value of $52 million in one year. There is a 25% chance that the assets will be worth only $22 million. The current risk-free rate is 5%, and Acort's assets have a cost of capital of 10%. a) If Acort is unlevered, what is the current market value of its equity? b) Suppose instead that Acort has debt with a face value of $18 million due in one year. According to MM (i.e. perfect market), what is the value of Acort's equity in this case? c) What is the expected return of Acort's equity without leverage? What is the expected return of Acort's equity with leverage? d) What is the lowest possible realized return of Acort's equity with and without leverage?

Answers

Solution :

a). The current market value of the unlevered equity

   [tex]$=\frac{75\% \times \$52 \text{ million} + 25\% \times \$22 \text{ million}}{1+10 \%}$[/tex]

   = $ 40.45 million

b). The market value of the equity one year from now is

  [tex]$=(75\% \times \$52 \text{ million} + 25\% \times \$22 \text{ million})- \$18 \ \text{million}$[/tex]

  = $ 44.5 million - $ 18 million

  = $ 26.5 million

c). The expected return on the equity without the leverage = 10%

     The expected return on the equity with the leverage =   [tex]$=10\% +\frac{ \$22 \text{ million}}{\$ 26.5 \text{ million}}$[/tex]

= 0.93 %

d). The lowest possible value of equity without the leverage = $20 million - $ 18 million

= $ 2 million

The lowest return on the equity without the leverage = 10%

The lowest return on the equity with the leverage = 2 % as the equity is eroded.

Birch Corp., a calendar-year corporation, was formed three years ago by its sole shareholder, James, who has operated it as an S corporation since its inception. Last year, James made a direct loan to Birch Corp. in the amount of $6,650. Birch Corp. has paid the interest on the loan but has not yet paid any principal. (Assume the loan qualifies as debt for tax purposes.) For the year, Birch experienced a $32,000 business loss.

What amount of the loss clears the tax basis limitation, and what is James?s basis in his Birch Corp. stock and Birch Corp. debt in each of the following alternative scenarios?

a. At the beginning of the year, James's basis in his Birch Corp. stock was $46,100 and his basis in his Birch Corp. debt was $6,600.
b. At the beginning of the year, James's basis in his Birch Corp. stock was $10,300 and his basis in his Birch Corp. debt was $6,600.
c. At the beginning of the year, James's basis in his Birch Corp. stock was $0 and his basis in his Birch Corp. debt was $6,600.

Answers

Answer:

A. $32,000 clears the tax basis limitation

$14,100 basis in his Birch Corp. stock

$6,600 Birch Corp. debt

B. $16,900 clears the tax basis limitation

$0 basis in his Birch Corp. stock

$0 Birch Corp. debt

$15,000 suspended loss

C. $6,600 clears the tax basis limitation

$0 basis in his Birch Corp. stock

$0 Birch Corp. debt

$25,400 suspended loss

Explanation:

A. Based on the information given All the $32,000 amount of the loss will clear up the tax basis limitation which means that James’s stock basis will be reduced to $14,100 ($46,100 – $32,000 loss) while His debt basis on the other hand remains at $6,600.

Therefore:

$32,000 clears the tax basis limitation

$14,100 basis in his Birch Corp. stock

$6,600 Birch Corp. debt

B. Based on the information given of the $32,000 loss, $16,900($10,300+$6,600) will clear up the tax basis limitation, While his stock basis will be reduced from $10,300 to $0, and his debt basis will be reduced from $6,600 to $0. Which means that he has a suspended loss of $15,100 ($32,000 - $16,900)

Therefore:

$16,900 clears the tax basis limitation

$0 basis in his Birch Corp. stock

$0 Birch Corp. debt

$15,000 suspended loss

C. Based on the information given the amount of $6,600 will clear up the tax basis limitation. His stock basis will remains at $0, while his debt basis will be reduced from $6,600 to $0. Which means that he has a suspended loss of $25,400 ($32,000 – $6,600)

Therefore:

$6,600 clears the tax basis limitation

$0 basis in his Birch Corp. stock

$0 Birch Corp. debt

$25,400 suspended loss

oneycutt Co. is comparing two different capital structures. Plan I would result in 39,000 shares of stock and $108,000 in debt. Plan II would result in 33,000 shares of stock and $324,000 in debt. The interest rate on the debt is 7 percent. a. Ignoring taxes, compare both of these plans to an all-equity plan assuming that EBIT will be $160,000. The all-equity plan would result in 42,000 shares of stock outstanding. What is the EPS for each of these plans

Answers

Answer:

All equity plan:

EPS = $160,000 / 42,000 = $3.81

Plan I:

EPS = [$160,000 - ($108,000 x 7%)] / 39,000 = $152,440 / 39,000 = $3.91

Plan II:

EPS = [$160,000 - ($324,000 x 7%)] / 33,000 = $137,320 / 33,000 = $4.16

Plan II is better since the resulting EPS is higher than the other alternatives.

You are evaluating a proposed expansion of an existing subsidiary located in Switzerland. The cost of the expansion would be SF 14 million. The cash flows from the project would be SF 4.0 million per year for the next five years. The dollar required return is 14 percent per year, and the current exchange rate is SF 1.05. The going rate on Eurodollars is 6 percent per year. It is 4 percent per year on Swiss francs.
a. Convert the projected franc flows into dollar flows and calculate the NPV.
b-1. What is the required return on franc flows?
b-2. What is the NPV of the project in Swiss francs?
b-3. What is the NPV in dollars if you convert the franc NPV to dollars?

Answers

Answer:

a-The net present value in dollars is 494939.0687.

b-1-The required return on franc flows is 11.72%.

b-2-The net present value in Francs is 519686.02.

b-3-The NPV in dollars as calculated from NPV in Francs is $494939.07

Explanation:

a

In order to find the solution, firstly the exchange rate for the 5 years is calculated. It is calculated using the formula:

[tex]EER=CER*(1-GRD+GRF)^t[/tex]

Here

EER is the expected exchange rate which is to be calculatedCER is the current exchange rate which is 1.05GRD is the going rate of dollars which is 6% or 0.06GRF is the going rate of Francs which is 4% or 0.04t is the time in years.

From this exchange rate, the PV factor is calculated which is than used to find the present value and similarly net present value in total. The solution is provided in the attached Excel Sheet.

The net present value in dollars is 494939.07

b-1

The required rate on the Franc return is given as:

[tex]FRR=(1+DR)(1-GRD+GRF)-1[/tex]

Here

FRR is the franc return rate which is to be calculatedDR is the dollar rate which is 14% or 0.14GRD is the going rate of dollar which is 6% or 0.06GRF is the going rate of Franc which is 4% or 0.04

So the value becomes:

[tex]FRR=(1+DR)(1-GRD+GRF)-1\\FRR=(1+0.14)(1-0.06+0.04)-1\\FRR=0.1172\text{ or }11.72\%[/tex]

The required return on franc flows is 11.72%.

b-2

Similar to part a, the solution is found for the return rate of 11.72 and the exchange rate is not required. The values are as indicated in the excel sheet attached.

The net present value in Francs is 519686.02.

b-3

In order to convert the Franc NPV to dollars, the exchange rate of 1.05SF is used which gives

[tex]NPV_{dollars}=\dfrac{NPV_{Francs}}{ER}[/tex]

Here

NPV_dollars is the value of NPV which is to be calculated.NPV_francs is the value of NPV calculated in previous step which is 510686.02.ER is the exchange rate whose value is 1.05

So the equation becomes:

[tex]NPV_{dollars}=\dfrac{NPV_{Francs}}{ER}\\NPV_{dollars}=\dfrac{519686.02}{1.05}\\NPV_{dollars}=494939.0666=\$494939.07[/tex]

The NPV in dollars as calculated from NPV in Francs is $494939.07

Orange Corporation has gathered the following data on a proposed investment project: Investment in depreciable equipment $ 520,000 Annual net cash flows $ 78,000 Life of the equipment 10 years Salvage value $ 0 Discount rate 6 % The company uses straight-line depreciation on all equipment. Assume cash flows occur uniformly throughout a year except for the initial investment. The payback period for the investment would be: Multiple Choice 1.0 years 0.2 years 4.7 years 6.7 years

Answers

Answer:

6.7 years

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

Investment = $520,000

Net cash flow = $78,000

Life of equipment = 10 years

So, we can calculate the payback period for investment by using following formula,

Payback period for investment = Initial Investment ÷ Net cash flow

= $520,000 ÷ $78,000

= 6.67 years or 6.7 years

Assume that you believe exchange rate movements are mostly driven by purchasing power parity. The U.S. and Canada presently have the same nominal (quoted) interest rate. The central bank of Canada just made an announcement that causes you to revise your estimate of Canada's real interest rate upward. Nominal interest rates were not affected by the announcement. Do you expect that the Canadian dollar to appreciate, depreciate, or remain the same against the dollar in response to the announcement

Answers

Answer:

The Canadian dollar would appreciate

Explanation:

Real interest rate is nominal interest rate less inflation rate

exchange rate is the rate at which one currency is exchanged for another currency

if the real interest rate of the canadian dollar increases, there would be an increase in demand for canadian dollars. As a result, the demand for canadian dollars would increase. the increase in demand would lead to an appreciation of the canadian dollar

Given the following information: Percent of capital structure: Preferred stock 10 % Common equity (retained earnings) 40 Debt 50 Additional information: Corporate tax rate 34 % Dividend, preferred $ 7.00 Dividend, expected common $ 2.50 Price, preferred $ 104.00 Growth rate 8 % Bond yield 9 % Flotation cost, preferred $ 9.40 Price, common $ 76.00 Calculate the weighted average cost of capital for Digital Processing Inc.

Answers

Answer: 8.23%

Explanation:

Firstly, we will calculate the cost of debt which will be:

= Yield (1-Tax rate)

= 9% × (1-0.34)

= 9% × 0.66

= 5.94%

Then, the Cmcost of preferred stock will be:

= 7/(104-9.40)

= 7/(94.6)

= 7.39%

We will also get the value of the cost of equity which will be:

= (Dividend expected common/Price common) + growth rate

= (2.50/76) + 8%

= 3.29% + 8%

= 11.29%

For Debt:

Cost after tax: 5.94

Weight = 50%

Weighted cost = 5.94 × 50% = 2.97

For Preferred stock:

Cost after tax: 7.39

Weight = 1%

Weighted cost = 7.39 × 10% = 0.74

For Common equity

Cost after tax: 11.29

Weight = 40%

Weighted cost = 11.29 × 40% = 4.52

Weighted average cost of capital = 2.97 + 0.74 + 4.52 = 8.23%

Compute the payback period for each of these two separate investments:

a. A new operating system for an existing machine is expected to cost $250,000 and have a useful life of four years. The system yields an incremental after-tax income of $72,115 each year after deducting its straight-line depreciation. The predicted salvage value of the system is $10,000.

b. A machine costs $200,000, has a $13,000 salvage value, is expected to last eight years, and will generate an after-tax income of $39,000 per year after straight-line depreciation.

Answers

Answer:

A. 1.89 years

B. 2.33 years

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

(A) After-tax income = $72,115

Expected cost = $250,000

Useful life = 4 years

Salvage value = $10,000

Depreciation Value = ($250,000 - $10,000) ÷ 4 = $60,000

Annual net cashflow = After tax income + Depreciation

= $72,115 + $60,000 = $132,115

Payback Period = Machine expected cost ÷ Annual net cash flow

= $250,000 ÷ $132,115

= 1.89 years

(B) After-tax income = $39,000

Machine cost = $200,000

Useful life = 8 years

Salvage value = $13,000

Depreciation value = ($200,000 - $13,000) ÷ 4 = $46,750

Annual net cashflow = After tax income + Depreciation

= $39,000 + $46,750 = $85,750

Payback Period = Machine expected cost ÷ Annual net cash flow

= $200,000 ÷ $85,750

= 2.33 years

Answers

Answer:

If the company decides to raise the selling price by $0.5, net income will decrease by $45,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Unitary variable cost= $3

Number of units sold= 150,000

Selling price= $6.5

To calculate the effect on income, we need to use the following formula:

Net income= number of units sold*unitary contribution margin - fixed costs

Previous:

Net income= 150,000*3.5 - 350,000

Net income= $175,000

After:

Net income= 120,000*4 - 350,000

Net income= $130,000

Unitary contribution margin= 7 - 3= 4

Number of units sold= 150,000*0.8= 120,000

If the company decides to raise the selling price by $0.5, net income will decrease by $45,000

Joint products A and B emerge from common processing costs of $100,000 and yield 2,000 units of Product A and 1,000 units of Product B. Product A can be sold for $100 per unit. Product B can be sold for $120 per unit. The amount of joint costs allocated to Product A (if joint costs are allocated on the basis of relative sales value) will be $ (rounded to nearest dollar).

Answers

Answer:

Product A - Joint Cost Allocated = $62500

Explanation:

To calculate the allocation of joint costs to Product A, we must first calculate the sales revenue or value for both products.

Total sales value - Product A = 100 * 2000  =  $200000

Total sales value - Product B = 120 * 1000  =  $120000

Total Sales Value = 200000 + 120000   =  $320000

The amount of Joint costs that will be allocated to Product A will be,

Product A - Joint Cost Allocated = (200000 / 320000) * 100000

Product A - Joint Cost Allocated = $62500

Sicilian Defence, a division of Queen's Gambit Corp., has a net operating income of $60,000 and average operating assets of $300,000. The minimum required rate of return for the company is 15%. If the manager of the Sicilian Defence division is evaluated based on residual income, will she want to make an investment of $100,000 that would generate additional net operating income of $18,000 per year?

Answers

Answer:

Queen's Gambit Corp.

Sicilian Defence Division

If the manager of the Sicilian Defence division is evaluated based on residual income, will she want to make an investment of $100,000 that would generate additional net operating income of $18,000 per year?

Yes.

The additional investment yields comparable positive Residual Income.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Net operating income of Sicilian Defence Division = $60,000

Average operating assets = $300,000

Required rate of return for the company = 15%

Residual income (RI)= Operating Income - (Operating Assets x Required Rate of Return)

= $60,000 - ($300,000 * 15%)

= $60,000 - $45,000

= $15,000

Investment cost = $100,000

Additional net operating income = $18,000

Residual Income = $18,000 - ($100,000 * 15%)

= $18,000 - $15,000

= $3,000

Total residual income = $78,000 - ($400,000 * 15%)

= $78,000 - $60,000

= $18,000

The Cork Company has been sent a special order of 6,000 dongles to be shipped at the end of the month at a selling price of $7 each. The company has a production capacity of 90,000 dongles per month with total fixed production costs of $144,000. At present, the company is selling 80,000 dongles per month through regular channels at a selling price of $11 each. For these regular sales, the cost for one dongle is:
Variable Production $4.60
Cost Fixed Production Cost $1.80
Variable Selling Expense $1.00
At what selling price per unit should Cork be indifferent between accepting or rejecting the special offer?
a. $7.40.
b. $7.70
c. $6.40
d. $4.90.
e. None of the answers provided is correct.

Answers

Answer:

Indifferent special order price=$5.60

Explanation:

To determine whether or not Cork Company should accept the order, we will compare the variable cost of the order to the sales value . If the special order generates a positive contribution margin, then it should be accepted.'

The relevant cash flows to be considered here includes

1. Variable cost of the special order

2. Sales revenue from the special order.

Note that the fixed cost are general unavoidable costs which would be incurred either way. And therefore should not be considered .

variable cos per unit = 4.60 +1.00= 5.60

                                                                           $

Sales revenue from special order

(7×6,000)                                                       42,000

Variable cost (5.60× 6,000)                         (33,600)

Net income from special order                   8,400        

A special order price that will produce a net income of zero is that which will make  the Cork Company indifferent. And such price is that which equals to the variable cost of selling

Indifferent special order price = variable cost per unit = $5.60

Indifferent special order price=$5.60

The special offers under the cost accounting are the changes or the events arranged in between the regular business operations. The special offer is launched at lower or higher variable costs. This is done either to attract customers or to clear off the stock.

The correct option is e. None of the answer provided is correct.

The selling price per unit that is indifferent between accepting or rejecting the special offer is $5.60

As per the computation, the special offer should be accepted.

Computations:

The indifferent special order price should include only the variable cost.

[tex]\text{Indifferent price}=\text{Variable Production cost}+\text{Variable selling expense}\\\\=\$4.60+\$1.00\\\\=\$5.60[/tex]

Computation of net income from a special offer:

[tex]\text{Net Income}=\text{Sales revenue}-\text{Variable cost}\\\\=(\$7\times6,000)-(\$5.60\times6,000)\\\\=\$442,000-\$33,600\\\\=\$8,400[/tex]

For taking the decision of accepting  or rejecting the special offer:

variable costs of existing and special offers are compared.The variable cost and the selling price must be equal for generating a net income of zero.The positive contribution margin indicates acceptance of the special offer.

The outstanding debt has a total face value of $422,000 and currently sells for 114 percent of face. The yield to maturity on the debt is 8.26 percent. What is the firm's weighted average cost of capital if the tax rate is 40 percent

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Weighted average cost of capital = Cost of Equity x Weight of Equity + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt + Cost of Preferred Stock x Weight of Preferred Stock

therefore,

Weighted average cost of capital = 12.70 % x 70.82 % + 4.956 % x 17.73 % + 8.40 % x 11.45 %

                                                        = 10.83 %

Year 2 = -10%

Year 3 = 17%

Year 4 = 22%

Year 5 = 10%

Total returns  = 49%

Average returns = Total returns/number of years

= 9.8% (49%/5)

Average real returns

= Average returns on the stock minus the inflation rate

= 8.3% (9.8% - 1.5%)

Average nominal risk premium = return on the stock minus the return on the T-bill

= 9.8% - 3%

= 6.8%

PBYI’s current BID-ASK is $59.00 - $60.00. PBYI is going to release their annual report tomorrow; you have special skill in valuing biotech companies, and you believe that PBYI has an expected alpha tomorrow of 2% compared to the market’s current best estimate of fair value. Is the following statement true? PBYI is currently overpriced. True False 1 points QUESTION 8 If you purchased PBYI now then sold it tomorrow right before market close, what is your best estimate for your expected profit after taking transactions cost into account? (in %, rounded to 1 decimal place)

Answers

Answer:

PBYI is not over priced

expected profit = $0.18

Explanation:

BID - ASK price : 59.00 - 60.00

expected alpha = 2%

In this scenerio ( positive alpha ) you can buy the PBYI at $60.00

when you buy at $60 the value will increase to ; 60 + ( 2% * 60 ) = $61.2

when you resell the security ( PBYI ) you will get ; ( 61.2 )* (59/60) = $60.18

therefore your expected profit = 60.18 - 60 = $0.18

PBYI is not not currently Overpriced since you can buy and make profit after selling the next day

Highgrove Industries must decide which process technology to adopt, given the information below. Cost Technology A Technology B Technology C Price per unit $3 $3 $3 Fixed costs per year $80,000 $120,000 $130,000 Variable costs per unit $2.20 $1.85 $1.65 Which one of the process technologies would you recommend they adopt if the expected demand is 100,000 units

Answers

Answer:

Technology C

Explanation:

Total Cost = Fixed Cost + Variable cost * (Number of Units)

Total Cost for Technology A = $80000 + $2.20*(100,000 units)

Total Cost for Technology A = $300,000

Total Cost for Technology B = $120,000 + $1.85*(100,000 units)

Total Cost for Technology B = $305,000

Total Cost for Technology C = $130,000 + $1.65*(100,000 units)

Total Cost for Technology C = $195,000

Conclusion: The minimum total cost for 100,000 Unit is for process technology C, Hence this technology would be recommended

You wish to take an Excel course. You may enroll at one within your school or you may take a community class at the local library. You've gathered the following information to aid in your decision-making process.
Costs/Benefits College Course Community Course
Cost $2,600 $1,390
Distance to course 0.40 miles (walking distance) 16 miles (driving distance)
Timing of course Weekday Weekend
Number of meetings 16 8
Qualitative considerations Convenience, quality of instruction Flexibility, brief duration
If you enroll in the community class, you will be unable to work at your regular job on weekends for the eight weekend days when the class meets. If you typically earn $260 per weekend shift, which option would you choose (considering enrollment cost and opportunity cost)?
a) Neither alternative
b) College course
c) Community course
d) Both alternatives

Answers

Answer:

The chosen option (considering enrollment costs and opportunity cost) is:

b) College course.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Costs/Benefits

                           College Course          Community Course

Cost                              $2,600                         $1,390

Opportunity costs         -2,080                          2,080

Net costs                         $520                        $3,470

Distance to course      0.40 miles                    16 miles

                                  (walking distance)      (driving distance)

Timing of course          Weekday                     Weekend

Number of meetings    16                                 8

b) With the College course option, you will earn $2,080 ($260 * 8) weekdays to offset part of the enrollment cost.  With the Community course option, $2,080 will be lost in opportunity cost, thereby increasing the total costs incurred.  These costs are apart from the driving costs associated with traveling 16 miles to the Community Course at the local library.
