Suppose that Tyler is an entrepreneur. He works as an economic consultant and because of his quick wit, mastery of economics, and dashing good-looks, Tyler is offered a position that pays $7,000 per month. Tyler declines this offer because he thinks it is less than a normal profit. What does this mean? A) Tyler's dad worked as an economic consultant during the 1980s and earned a higher salary then (controlling for inflation). A normal profit implies that the incomes of people in similar industries should be similar over time. B) Tyler would have to give up the chance to earn more than $7,000 if he were to o accept this position. A normal profit refers to the profit that an entrepreneur can expect to earn in other business opportunities. C) Tyler's wife works as a legal consultant and she is paid more than $7,000 per month. A normal profit implies that consultants in all industries earn the same amount. D) Egnomists aren't normal and don't like earning money in the same way that other people do. E) Tyler's friend works in Europe as an economic consultant and earns a higher salary. The $7,000 per month must be less than a normal profit if European consultants are being paid more.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B) Tyler would have to give up the chance to earn more than $7,000 if he were to accept this position. A normal profit refers to the profit that an entrepreneur can expect to earn in other business opportunities.

Explanation:

Since in the question it is mentioned that Tyler is an entrepreneur and works as a consultant of economics. As taylor offered a position where he received $7,000 per month but he declines it as he knows that he can earn above $7,000 so he should give him a chance to earn above $7,000.

But in this case if he accept that he will get a lower of normal profit so he should look other business opportunities in order to earn more than $7,000

Therefore the correct option is b.

Webster Corporation is preparing a master budget for the first quarter. The company budgets production of 2,980 units in January, 2,750 units in February and 3,490 units in March. Each unit requires 0.7 hours of direct labor. The direct labor rate is $14 per hour. Compute the budgeted direct labor cost for the first quarter budget.

Answers

Answer:

Total direct labor cost= $90,356

Explanation:

First, we need to determine the total direct labor hour for each month:

January= 2,980*0.7= 2,086

February= 2,750*0.7= 1,925

March= 3,490*0.7= 2,443

Total direct labor hours= 6,454

Now, the direct labor cost for the first quarter:

Total direct labor cost= 14*6,454

Total direct labor cost= $90,356

Revenue from product Y is $6,000, variable costs are $4,000, and allocated fixed costs are $3,000. If you drop product Y in the long term, profit will:_____.a. increase by $2,000.b. increase by $1,000.c. decrease by $3,500.d. decrease by $100.e. decrease by $2,000.

Answers

Answer:

e. decrease by $2,000.

Explanation:

The computation of the profit is shown below:

Contribution margin = Sales revenue from product Y - variable cost

= $6,000 - $4,000

= $2,000

Since there is a contribution margin of $2,000 that absorbs the allocated fixed cost till $2,000 so in the case when the product is discontinued it falls the profit by $2,000

hence, the correct option is e.

Answer:

e. None of these choices are correct.

Calculation for the gross amount of each bonus check

Using this formula

Gross amount=Net bonus/(1-Supplemental rate-

FICA taxes)

Note that FICA taxes includes :

Social Security tax = 6.2%

Medicare tax on earnings=1.45%

Let plug in the formula

Gross amount=$500/(1-22%-6.2%-1.45%)

Gross amount=$500/(1-14.35%)

Gross amount=$500/0.1335

Gross amount= $3,745.32

Therefore the gross amount of each bonus check would be $3,745.32

Huxley has $5 in short-term investments per share and $7 debt per share. What is the best estimate of the current intrinsic stock price?

Answers

Answer:

$40.6344 per share

Explanation:2.

Complete question "Huxley has $5 million in short-term investments and $7 million in debt and has 1 million shares outstanding. What is the best estimate of the current intrinsic stock price?"

Calculation of the value of firm is as below

Yr      Cash flow  Growth rate   New c.flow   Pv at 12%   Pv of cash flows

1            1.75                 25%            2.1875         0.893              1.9534

2           2.1875             25%            2.7344        0.797               2.1793

TCM                                                48.3083      0.797               38.5017

                                                      Value of firm                        42.6344

Note: TCM = Terminal cash floe = 2.7344*(1.06) / 12% - 6% = 48.3083 million

Now, Market value of firm = 42.6344 + 5 - 7 = 40.6344 million

Market price per share = $40.6344 million/1 million = $40.6344 per share

Explain the difference between fixed and variable costs and give two examples of each. Can a company budget for variable costs? Explain

Answers

Answer:

Fixed cost in an organization does not change and is fixed while the variable cost keep changing if the production is increased.

Explanation:

Fixed cost are said to be that cost which does not change with production level for a certain limit. Let us suppose there is no change in the rent amount if we have only factory for the production of goods.

But the variable cost are those cost which increases as production increases. More will be the variable cost when the production will be more. Also for per unit basis, the variable cost remains the same.

Fixed cost are not important in decision making if there is an excess of capacity available.

For example,

Direct labor, direct material -- variable cost

Salary of supervisor, rent of factory -- fixed cost

Even though there is not much change in the variable cost, like for suppose material price increases, a company can still make a budget that is based on the past experience and predicting the market prices. Similarly, if there is a machine that uses three units of direct material for a piece if finished product, which is not going to change in the future. Thus the company can make a budget.

Snap On Inc has a beta of 2.67 and the expected market return is 0.19. In addition, Treasury bills (risk-free asset) are currently yielding 0.02. Find the expected return for Snap On Inc.

Answers

Answer: Expected Return = 0.47

Explanation:

Using the CAPM, The Capital Asset Pricing Model formulae , we have that  

Expected Return = Risk Free Rate + Beta(Market Return - Risk Free Rate)

Where

market return is 0.19

 Beta =2.67

risk-free asset= 0.02

Expected Return=0.02 +2.67 X (0.19 - 0.02)

=0.02 +2.67 X (0.17)

0.02 +0.4539

Required Return=0.47

Therefore Expected Return  for Snap On Inc is 0.47

Sarah and Jane formed a partnership with capital contributions of $210,000 and $123,000, respectively. Peter contributed $86,000 to acquire an ownership interest of 12% in the new partnership. How much is the total bonus for the existing partners?

Answers

Answer:

$35,720

Explanation:

The computation of the total bonus for the existing partners is shown below;

Total capital is

= $210,000 + $123,000 +$86,000

= $419,000

Now

Share of new partner

= $419,000 × 12%

= $50,280

But the actual amount that needs to pay is $86,000

So, the bonus would be

= $86,000 - $50,280

= $35,720

Hence, the  total bonus for the existing partners is $35,720

Answers

Answer:

2017 = $2,587.50

2018 = $10,350

Explanation:

The computation of the depreciation expense using the straight line method for the year 2017 and 2018 are shown below:

As we know that

The formula to compute the depreciation expense under the straight-line method is

= (Purchased Cost - salvage value) ÷ useful life

For 2017 year

= ($80,360 - $7,910) ÷ 7 year

= $10,350

For 3 months, it is

= $10,350 × 3 ÷ 12

= $2,587.50

And, for 2018, it is $10,350

A 7.05 percent coupon bond with 25 years left to maturity can be called in eight years. The call premium is one year of coupon payments. It is offered for sale at $1,075.85. What is the yield to call of the bond? (Assume interest payments are semiannual.)

Answers

Answer:

Yield to call is 5.88% annually

Explanation:

The rate of return bondholders receives on a callable bond until the call date is called Yield to call.

Yield to Call = [ C + ( F - P ) / n ] / [ (F + P ) / 2 ]

It is assumed that face value of Bond is $1,000

C = Coupon Payment = $1,000 x 7.05% x 6/12 = $35.25

F = Face value = $1,000

P = Call price = $1,075.85

n -= number of periods to call = 8 x 2 = 16 periods

Yield to Call = [ $35.25 + ( $1,000 - $1075.85 ) / 16 ] / [ ( $1,000 + $1075.85 ) / 2 ]

Yield to Call = [ $35.25 - 4.74 ] / $1,037.925

Yield to Call = $30.51 / $1,037.925

Yield to Call = 0.0294

Yield to Call = 2.94% semiannually

YTC = 2.94% x 12/6 = 5.88% annually
