Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 0.6%

Explanation:

The expected return is a weighted average of the returns of the assets invested in.

70% is invested in cash which earns 0%

30% is in a savings account earning 2%

Expected return = (70% * 0%) + (30% * 2%)

= 0% + 0.6%

= 0.6%

A friend asks to borrow $635.52 today and promises to repay you $1,000 with interest compounded annually at 12%. How many years (compounding periods) will pass before you receive the payment

Answers

Answer:

4 years

Explanation:

We can calculate the years (compounding periods that) will pass before you receive the payment by calculating the PV factor at 12% as follows.

DATA

Amount borrowed = $635.52

future amount = $1,000

Interest rate = 12%

Time period (n) = ?

Solution

Amount borrowed = future amount x Present value factor (12%, n)

$635.52 = $1,000 x PV factor(12%, n)

0.63552 = PV factor(12%, n)

If you see in a discount table yu wi see 0.63552 in the fourth row of 12% rate that means it will take 4 years to receive the payment.

d. $45.000 loss on disposal.

Explanation:

a. $84000 gain on disposal. b. $84000 loss on disposal. c. $230000 loss on disposal. d. $45.000 loss on disposal.

Book Value on the Date of sale = Cost - Accumulated Depreication -Current year Depreciation

Book Value on the Date of sale = $354,000 - $146,000 - $39,000

Book Value on the Date of sale = $169,000

Gain (Loss) on disposal of the Asset= Selling Price - Book Value

Gain (Loss) on disposal of the Asset = $124,000 - $169,000

Loss on disposal of the Asset = $45,000

Suppose US$1 = €0.7809 in New York and US$1 = €0.7793 in Paris. How can foreign exchange traders profit from these exchange rates? What actions can they take that may result in the same dollar/euro exchange rate in both New York and Paris? Please limit your response to one or two reasonably-sized paragraphs.

Answers

Answer:

If a Dollar is worth $ 0.7809 Euros in New York, and $ 0.7793 Euros in Paris, the way in which foreign exchange traders could obtain an economic profit through this difference would be by buying Euros in Paris, and selling them again in New York. Thus, they would obtain $ 0.016 of profit for each Euro traded in the market, with which, for example, if $ 1,000,000 of Euros were traded, a total profit of $ 16,000 would be obtained. In turn, trading the same amount in both Paris and New York, traders would not make any profit, equating both exchange rates.

Answers

Answer:

first part

Return on equity = net income / equity =

net income = total revenue - expenses = $66,500 - $42,700 (salaries) - $6,900 (utilities) - $8,000 (supplies) - $1,675 (depreciation) - $2,700 (taxes) = $4,525

equity = $153,200 (Dec. 31 balance) + $42,000 (new stocks issued) - $20,000 (treasury stocks) - $3,620 (dividends) + 17,600 (treasury stocks sold) + $4,525 (net income) = $193,705

ROE = $4,525 / $193,705 = 2.34%

The company is less profitable than other companies in the same industry.

total stocks outstanding = 18,100

EPS for January = $4,525 / 18,100 = $0.25

Dawson Electronic Services had revenues of $106,000 and expenses of $63,000 for the year. Its assets at the beginning of the year were $413,000. At the end of the year assets were worth $463,000. Calculate its return on assets.

Answers

Answer:Return On Assets=9.8%

Explanation:

Return On Assets =Net income/Average total assets

But

Net income=Revenues-Expenses

=$106,000 - $63,000

= $43,000

And Average total assets  is given as  (Beginning assets +Ending assets)/2

= ($413,000+$463000)/2=$876,000 /2

=$438,000

Therefore Return On Assets =Net income/Average total assets

= $43,000 / $438,000

=0.098 x 100

=9.8%

The next dividend payment by ASAP, Inc., will be $2.00 per share. The dividends are anticipated to maintain a 4.00% growth rate, forever. If ASAP stock currently sells for $14.75 per share, what is the required return?

Answers

Answer:

r = 0.175593 or 17.5593% rounded off to 17.56%

Explanation:

Using the constant growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock today. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under this model is,

P0 = D1 / (r - g)

Where,

D1 is dividend expected for the next period /year g is the growth rate r is the required rate of return  

Plugging in the values for D1, P0 and g, we can calculate the value of r to be,

14.75 = 2 / (r - 0.04)

14.75 * (r - 0.04)  =  2

14.75r - 0.59  =  2

14.75r = 2 + 0.59

r = 2.59  /  14.75

r = 0.175593 or 17.5593% rounded off to 17.56%

Assume you just deposited $1,000 into a bank account. The current real interest rate is 7.00% and inflation is expected to be 8.00% over the next year. What nominal interest rate would you require from the bank over the next year? How much money will you have at the end of one year? If you are saving to buy fancy bicycle that currently sells for $1,050, will you have enough money to buy it?

Answers

Answer:

a) The nominal interest rate that I would require from the bank over the next year is 15%.

b) At the end of one year, I will have $1,150.

c) If I am saving to buy a fancy bicycle that currently sells for $1,050, I will have enough money ($1,150) to buy it.  It will be costing $1,134  ($1,050 * 1.08) with inflation rate of 8% in one year's time.

Explanation:

The nominal interest rate (15%) is higher than the real interest rate (7%) when inflation is positive because the real interest rate is adjusted for inflation (at 8%).  The real interest rate is the rate without inflation while the nominal interest rate factors in the inflation rate.

Answers

Answer:

relatively flexible

Explanation:

Flexible pricing is when there is room for negotiation of prices of a product between the buyers and sellers.

So the price is prone to change in short amount of time.

Sticky price on the other hand tends to be non negotiable and the does not change over time.in the given scenario prices for airline tickets change on average about once per month.

So there is constant change of the price every month. Meaning the buyer can convince the seller to change his offering price.

The price is relatively flexible

A bond has a $1,000 par value, 20 years to maturity, and an 8% annual coupon and sells for $1,110. What is its yield to maturity (YTM)?

Answers

Answer:

YTM = 0.070616 or 7.0616% rounded off to 7.06%

Explanation:

The yield to maturity or YTM is the yield or return that an investor can earn on the bond if the bond is purchased today and is held till the bond matures. The formula to calculate the Yield to maturity of a bond is as follows,

YTM = [ ( C + (F - P / n))  /  (F + P / 2) ]

Where,

C is the coupon paymentF is the Face value of the bondP is the current value of the bondn is the number of years to maturity

Coupon payment = 1000 * 0.08 = 80

YTM = [ (80 + (1000 - 1110 / 20))  /  (1000 + 1110 / 2)

YTM = 0.070616 or 7.0616% rounded off to 7.06%

Which of the following assumptions would cause the constant growth stock valuation model to be invalid? The growth rate is zero. The growth rate is negative. The required rate of return is greater than the growth rate. The required rate of return is more than 50%. None of the above assumptions would invalidate the model. -Select-

Answers

Answer:

e. None of the above assumptions would invalidate the model

Explanation:

Incomplete question "The constant growth model is given below: P0 = [D0(1 + g)]/[(rs - g)]"

According to dividend discount model,  

P0 = D1/(R-G)

D1 - Dividend at t =1

R - Required rate

G - Growth rate

This would be invalid if R < G. In other words, Dividend growth model will be invalid in only one situation, that is, when growth rate is more than require return. In this situation growth model cannot be used.

a. $72,988.08
b. $82,784.91
c. $87,878.88
d. $84,363.13

Answers

Answer:

$87,878.88

Explanation:

Calculation How much do you need to earn this year

Using this formula

PV = FV/ (1 + r )^n

Where,

FV =Future Value=$100,000

PV = Present Value

r = rate of interest=6.5%

n= no of period=3 years

Let plug in the formula

PV = $100,000 / ((1 + 6.5%)^3)

PV = $82,784.91

Therefore the amount you need to earn this year will be $82,784.91
