UBL Bank currently has PKR 4600 million in transaction deposits on its balance sheet. The State Bank of Pakistan has currently set the reserve requirement at 10 percent of transaction deposits. If the State bank decreases the reserve requirement to 8 percent, reflect the result of this transaction on the balance sheet of UBL and effect of this change on its balance sheet
Answer:
Total Assets = 4600 ,Total Liabilities = 4,600
Explanation:
Given:
Deposits = 4,600 million
Reserve requirement = 10% of deposits
Computation:
Reserve requirement = 10% x 4,600 million
Reserve requirement = 460 million
Total Assets = Reserves + Outstanding Loan
Outstanding Loan = Deposits - Reserve requirement
Outstanding Loan = 4,600 million - 460 million
Outstanding Loan = 4,140 million
Balance sheet:
Assets: Liabilities:
Reserves 460 Deposits 4,600
Loans 4140
Total Assets 4600 Total Liabilities 4,600
Reserve requirement = 8%
Reserves requirement = 8% x 4,600
requirement = 368 million
Outstanding Loans = 4,600 - 368
Outstanding = 4,232 million
New Balance sheet:
Assets: Liabilities:
Reserves 368 Deposits 4,600
Loans 4,232
Total Assets 4600 Total Liabilities 4,600
An investor can invest money with a particular bank and earn a stated interest rate of 8.80%; however, interest will be compounded quarterly. What are the nominal (or stated), periodic, and effective interest rates for this investment opportunity? Interest Rates Nominal rate 8.80% Periodic rate 6.12% Effective annual rate 9.00%
Answer:
nominal interest rate = 8.8%
periodic interest rate = 2.2%
the effective interest rate = 9.09%
Explanation:
nominal interest rate is the rate given to the investor = 8.8%
periodic interest rate = nominal interest rate / total number of compounding periods per year = 8.8% / 4 = 2.2%
the effective interest rate = (1 + periodic interest rate)ⁿ - 1 = (1 + 8.8%/4)⁴ - 1 = (1 + 8.8%/4)⁴ - 1 = (1 + 2.2%)⁴ - 1 = 1.0909 - 1 = 0.0909 = 9.09%
Which stage of an industry's growth cycle offers the greatest opportunity for an investor who is seeking capital gains?
a. initial development
b. mature growth
c. stability or decline
d. rapid expansion
Answer:
d. rapid expansion
Explanation:
The main objective of an investor is to invest his capital in an industry that generates profits. Therefore, analyzing the above question, it is correct to say that an organization that is expanding its business quickly, is achieving success in the market in which it operates, so this alternative is ideal for an investor seeking capital gains.
Initial development would be an alternative that does not have a real return for the investor, mature growth is also not the most profitable option, and the stability or decline option does not present a profitable and reliable alternative for an investor.
A portfolio has 70 shares of Stock A that sell for $30 per share and 125 shares of Stock B that sell for $17 per share. (a) What is the portfolio weight of Stock A?(b) What is the portfolio weight of Stock B?
Answer:
Portfolio weight of Stock A=49.70%
Portfolio weight of Stock A=50.29%
Explanation:
Calculation for the portfolio weight of Stock A and Stock B
First step is to calculate the total amount invested in both portfolio weight of Stock A and Stock B
Stock A and Stock B Total amount invested=
(A 70 shares*$30 per share)+ (B 125 shares*$17 per share)
Stock A and Stock B Total amount invested=$2,100+$2,125
Stock A and Stock B Total amount invested=$4,225
Now let calculate the PORTFOLIO WEIGHT OF STOCK A
Using this formula
Portfolio weight of Stock A=Stock A/Stock A and Stock B Total amount invested
Let plug in the formula
Portfolio weight of Stock A=(70 shares*$30 per share)/$4,225
Portfolio weight of Stock A=$2,100/$4,225
Portfolio weight of Stock A=0.4970*100
Portfolio weight of Stock A=49.70%
Therefore the Portfolio weight of Stock A
will be 49.70%
Calculation for PORTFOLIO WEIGHT OF STOCK B
Using this formula
Portfolio weight of Stock B=Stock B/Stock A and Stock B Total amount invested
Let plug in the formula
Portfolio weight of Stock B=(125 shares*$17 per share)/$4,225
Portfolio weight of Stock B=$2,125/$4,225
Portfolio weight of Stock B=0.5029*100
Portfolio weight of Stock B=50.29%
Therefore the Portfolio weight of Stock will be 50.29%

On January 1, 2010, North Co. sold equipment and accepted in exchange a $600,000 zero-interest-bearing note due on January 1, 2013. The effective rate of interest for a note of this type at 1/1/10 was 10%. Assume the present value of $1 at 10% for three periods is 0.75. What amount of interest revenue should be included in North's 2011 income statement?
Answer:
$49,500
Explanation:
Calculation for what amount of interest revenue should be included in North's 2011 income statement
First step is to find Zero-interest-bearing note due balance
Zero-interest-bearing note due balance
=$600,000 *0.75*10%
Zero-interest-bearing note due balance= $45,000
Second Step will be to calculate the interest revenue
Interest revenue=($450,000 + $45,000) *10%
Interest revenue= $495,000*10%
Interest revenue=49,500
Therefore what the amount of interest revenue should be included in North's 2011 income statement is $49,500
Bolt Corp. acquires equipment valued at $81,630 by signing a 3-year noninterest-bearing note payable for $100,000. Calculate the implicit interest rate on the note.
Answer:
7%
Explanation:
Calculation for the implicit interest rate on the note
First step is to calculate the PV factor
PV factor=$81,630/100,000
PV factor = 0.81630
Last Step is to find the implicit interest rate by using the PV table for 3 years to find the factor that matches the PV factor of 0.81630
Hence the factor that matches the PV factor of 0.81630 can be found or see in the 7% column which means that the implicit interest rate will be 7%
Therefore the implicit interest rate on the note will be 7%

XYZ, Inc. just paid an annual per share dividend of $3.50. Dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 3% per year from here on out. If the risk-free rate is 2.5%, the expected return on the market is 7% and the beta of the stock is 2, what is the most that you should be willing to pay for a share of this stock today?
Answer:
P0 = $42.4117 rounded off to $41.41
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 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)
Where,
D0 is the dividend paid recentl
D0 * (1+g) is dividend expected for the next period /year
g is the growth rate
r is the required rate of return or cost of equity
First we need to calculate the required rate of return on this stock using CAPM.
Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.
The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,
r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)
Where,
rRF is the risk free rate
rpM is the market return
r = 0.025 + 2 * (0.07 - 0.025)
r = 0.115 or 11.5%
Using the constant growth of dividend formula,
P0 = 3.5 * (1+0.03) / (0.115 - 0.03)
P0 = $42.4117 rounded off to $41.41
Waterway Industries purchased machinery for $905000 on January 1, 2017. Straight-line depreciation has been recorded based on a $52000 salvage value and a 5-year useful life. The machinery was sold on May 1, 2021 at a gain of $13000. How much cash did Waterway receive from the sale of the machinery?
Answer:
$ 178,733
Explanation:
From January 2017 when the machinery was acquired till May 1 2021 when it disposed of, depreciation would have been charged for full years 2017,2018,2019 and 2020 while 2021 depreciation would only be for 4 months.
Annual depreciation=cost-salvage value/ useful life
annual depreciation=($905000-$52000)/5=$170,600
depreciation for 4 years=$170,600*4=$682,400
depreciation for 4 months=$170,600*4/12=$56,867
accumulated depreciation=$682,400+$56,867=$739,267
carrying value=cost-accumulated depreciation= $905000- $739,267 =$165,733
gain on disposal=cash proceeds-carrying value
$13000=cash proceeds-$165,733
cash proceeds=$165,733 +$13000=$ 178,733

Explanation:
Derst Inc. sells a particular textbook for $27. Variable expenses are $20 per book. At the current volume of 43,000 books sold per year the company is just breaking even. Given these data, the annual fixed expenses associated with the textbook total:___________
a) $860,000
b) $1,161,000
c) $1,462,000
d) $301,000
Answer:
d. 301,000
Explanation:
Given that the cost per textbook is $27, we know that the addition of variable and fixed Cost gives total cost.
We will multiply variable cost per textbook of $20 with current volume of book sold per year 43,000, which gives a total variable cost of $860,000.
Also, total cost would be 43,000 multiplied with $27 , which is $1,161,000 minus the total variable cost of $860,000 equals $301,000 which is the associated fixed cost.
If a person deposits $1,000 now into a savings account for 10 years, the amount of money required in year 10 to account for a 6% per year inflation and earn a real 8% per year interest rate is closest to what?
Answer:
$3,707.22
Explanation:
the nominal interest rate that this person wants = real interest rate + inflation rate = 8% + 6% = 14%
this means that his/her account needs to earn 14% per year in order to gain an 8% real interest rate with a 6% inflation rate:
future value = present value x (1 + r)ⁿ
present value = $1,000r =14%n = 10future value = $1,000 x (1 + 14%)¹⁰ = $3,707.22
g A monopoly may exist because Question 21 options: a) government has refused to grant a public franchise. b) one firm has the exclusive ownership of a necessary resource. c) the firm is so large and is currently experiencing such vast diseconomies of scale that it can out-compete all newcomers. d) a and b e) a, b, and c
Answer:
B. one firm has the exclusive ownership of a scarce resource.
Explanation:
Monopoly can be regarded as market structure whereby a single seller thrives, this is a structure whereby the seller sells a unique product in the market. As far as monopoly market is concerned, no competition is been encontered by the manufacturer , because he is the only one selling goods with no close substitute. As a result of this there is restrictions of the entry of other sellers in the market.
It should be noted that monopoly may exist because one firm has the exclusive ownership of a scarce resource.
Answer:
b) one firm has the exclusive ownership of a necessary resource
Explanation:
A monopoly is a situation where a single supplier of a commodity.
This gives the supplier the benefit of fixing a price that maximises profit for them. Consumers have no alternative so they pay the high price for the commodity.
There is no substitute good so there is no competition from other firms. Price is usually set at a high level so that the monopoly enjoys profit high above its marginal cost.
Monopolies exist because one firm has the exclusive ownership of a necessary resource not available to other firms.

Bank and cash transactions occur on a daily basis in all businesses. Although the cash and bank balances may not individually be significant, annually the volume of cash and payment transactions and bank deposits can be significant to the entity.
Items of Cash
Cash balances comprise the following:
Cash Petty cash Till float Unbanked receiptsRisks
Cash is highly susceptible to fraud and theft by employees, often in collusion with third parties.
To mitigate this risk related to cash balances, management will usually implement strict control policies and procedures for cash handling and recording.
Controls in the bank and cash cycle can be divided into 2 categories:
Basic controls Controls over cashBasic Controls
Segregation of duties over the receipt and recording of money. Different forms of cash (sales, petty cash, cash loans) should be kept separately and recorded separately.Proper stationery control. Receipts, cash sales slips/invoices must be numerically recordedSafeguarding of money. Cash must be locked in a Volt and deposited as soon as possible. You would also need control over the key to the Volt.Control over Cash
Cashier must balance cash on a daily basis and must compare it with the source documents (receipt, cash invoices, cash register totals) and record it on a cash receipt summary. The Cash Receipt Summary must be Signed by the Cashier, Independently reviewed by the Senior Official.Every cashier should only be responsible for his own funds. Usually during lunch. Cash registers must be locked away.Every cashier should be responsible for his own float. They should lock in Cash Drawer.Supervision over cashiers. Through the use of Cameras.Cash must be banked as soon as possible.Audit approach for testing these accounts
Enquire about and observe the controls over cash by management.Do a surprise cash count (also attend on a surprise basis the daily balancing of cash). In the presence of a Cashier who signs back of the receipt, agree the cash with the supporting documentation (receipts, cash invoices, cash register total) and follow the float through to the balance in the ledger.At a later stage follow the cash counted through to deposit slip, and agree it with the cash counted, ensure they are banked timeously and follow the total of the deposit slip through to the cash book and bank statement.Which of the following is an example of an effective persuasive speech topic for a group of elementary school children?

Hayden Company currently sells widgets for $160 per unit. The variable cost is $60 per unit and total fixed costs equal $240,000 per year. Sales are currently 40,000 units annually, and the income tax rate is 40 percent. Required: a. Calculate the contribution margin per unit. b. Calculate break-even in units. c. Calculate break-even in sales dollars d. Calculate the current after-tax net income. e. The company is considering a 10% drop in the selling price that it believes will raise units sold by 15%. Assuming all costs stay the same, what is the impact on income if this change is made? f. How many units need to be sold to earn a pre-tax operating income of $100,000?
Answer:
a. $100
b. 2,400 units
c. $380,952
d. $2,256,000
e. 15.90 %
f. 3,400 units
Explanation:
Contribution margin per unit
Contribution margin per unit = Sales per unit less Variable Cost per unit
Therefore,
Contribution margin per unit = $160 - $60
= $100
Break-even in units
The Breakeven units is the level of activity where a firm makes neither a profit nor a loss.
Break-even in units = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
Therefore,
Break-even in units = $240,000 ÷ $100
= 2,400 units
Break-even in sales dollars
Break-even in sales dollars = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution margin ratio
Where,
Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin ÷ Sales
= $100 ÷ $160
= 0.63
Therefore,
Break-even in sales dollars = $240,000 ÷ 0.63
= $380,952
After-tax net income
Contribution ( $100 × 40,000 ) $4,000,000
Less Fixed Cost ($240,000)
Next Income Before Tax $3,760,000
Less Income tax at 40 % ($1,504,000)
Net Income After Tax $2,256,000
Effect of the Change on Income
First, calculate the Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL).
The DOL shows the times Net Income Before Interest and Tax will change as a result of a change in sales contribution.
Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL) = Contribution ÷ Net Income
Therefore,
Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL) = $4,000,000 ÷ $3,760,000
= 1.06
Effect on Income using the DOL = 1.06 × 15% = 15.90 %
Therefore Net Income would also increase by 15.90 %.
Units to be sold to earn an income of $100,000
Units to Earn a Target Profit = (Fixed Costs + Target Profit) ÷ Contribution margin per unit
Therefore,
Units to be sold to earn an income of $100,000 = ($100,000 + $240,000) ÷ $100
= 3,400 units
At December 31, 2020, Burr Corporation owes $500,000 on a note payable due February 15, 2021.(a) If Burr had restructured the note on December 15, 2020, such that Burr has the contractual right to defer payment of $250,000 of the note until February 15, 2022, how much of the $500,000 should be reported as a current liability at December 31, 2020
Answer:
$250,000
Explanation:
First and foremost, initially the whole amount payable( $500,000) was to be paid in one month and 15 days counting from December 31, 2020, hence, since the amount is payable within a year, it should have been classified as the current liability.
However, the refinancing meant that $250,000 would be deferred to 2022 while the balance of $250,000 ($500,000-$250,000) is still payable on the agreed date (February 15, 2021).
As a result, $250,000 would be reported as a current liability while the balance of $250,000 is shown as non-current(long-term) liability.
Of the $500,000 Note Payable, $250,000 should be reported as a current liability by Burr Corporation, while the remaining $250,000 should be reported as a long-term liability.
Data and Calculations:
Note Payable on December 31, 2020 =$500,000
Maturity date = February 15, 2021
Restructuring date = December 15, 2020
New Maturity date after restructuring = February 15, 2022
Current liability at December 31, 2020 = $250,000 ($500,000 - $250,000)
Long-term liability = $250,000 ($500,000 - $250,000)
Thus, in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2020, Burr Corporation can report $250,000 as a current liability instead of $500,000. The remaining $250,000 is reported as a long-term liability.
