Answer:
The price 3-years from now will be of $52,50
Explanation:
We solve for g using the Gordon model:
[tex]\frac{divends(1+g)}{Price} = return-growth[/tex]
As we don't know the rate of return we solve ofr that fist using CAPM:
CAPM (Capital Assets Price Model)
[tex]Ke= r_f + \beta (r_m-r_f)[/tex]
risk free 0.049
market rate 0.099
premium market = market rate - risk free 0.05
beta(non diversifiable risk) 0.9
[tex]Ke= 0.049 + 0.9 (0.05)[/tex]
Ke 0.09400
We plug that in the gordon equation and solve for g:
[tex]\frac{2.25}{Price} = return-growth[/tex]
2.25 = 0.094 x 46 - g x 46
(2.25 - 4.324) / 46 = -g
-0.0450869565217391 = -g
g = 0.045087
In the gordon model the price of the stock increases at the grow rate:
as P = D/(r-g)
P1 = D(1+g)/r-g)
P1 / P = D(1+g)/(r- g) / D/(r- g) = 1 + g
[tex]P_3 = P(1+g)^3 = 46(1+0.045087)^3 = 52.50675369[/tex]

Ming borrows X for 10 years at an annual effective interest rate of 8%. If he pays the principal and accumulated interest in one lump sum at the end of 10 years, he would pay 468.05 more in interest than if he repaid the loan with 10 level payments at the end of each year. Calculate X.
Answer:
X = $700
Explanation:
the future value of X = X · (1 + 8%)¹⁰ = 2.158925X
X = annual payment · 6.7101 (PV annuity factor, 8%, 10 periods)
annual payment = X / 6.7101
2.158925X = 10 annual payments + 468.05
2.158925X = 10X/6.7101 + 468.05
2.158925X = 1.490291X + 468.05
0.668634X = 468.05
X = 468.05 / 0.668634 = $700
if you payback the loan in one lump sum at the end of 10 years, you will pay = $700 x 2.158925 = $1,511.25
or you could make 10 annual payments = $700 / 6.7101 = $104.32, in total you would pay $1,043.20
the difference between both = $1,511.25 - $1,043.20 = $468.05
On January 1, 2020 Herald acquires 100% of Tribune and will operate Tribune as a wholly owned subsidiary. Herald's purchase price was less than the fair value of the net assets of Tribune. How is this handled
Answer:
When the purchase price is lower than the fair market value, accountants generally refer to this as negative goodwill. All negative goodwill must be reported as a gain.
Another way to refer to this type of situation is a bargain purchase (lower price than FMV).
On January 1, 2021, Jasperse Corporation leased equipment under a finance lease designed to earn the lessor a 10% rate of return for providing long-term financing. The lease agreement specified ten annual payments of $90,000 beginning January 1, and each December 31 thereafter through 2029. A 10-year service agreement was scheduled to provide maintenance of the equipment as required for a fee of $5,000 per year. Insurance premiums of $4,000 annually are related to the equipment. Both amounts were to be paid by the lessor and lease payments reflect both expenditures (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)
At what amount will Jasperse record a right-of-use asset?
PV factors based on
Table or Calculator function: PVAD of $1
Lease Payment
n = 10
i = 12%
Right-of-use asset
Answer:
$574,517
Explanation:
Calculation for the amount that Jasperse will record a right-of-use asset
Annual payments = $90,000
Annual maintenance = $5,000 per year
Rate of interest = 10%
Period, n = 10 years
Right of use asset =(90,000 – 5,000) x PVAD, 10%, 10
Right of use asset= 85,000 ×6.75902
Right of use asset= $574,517
Therefore Right-of-use asset will be $574,517

Snoblo, a manufacturer of snowblowers, sells four models. The base model, Reguplo, has demand that is normally distributed, with a mean of 10,000 and a stand deviation of 1,000. The three other models have additional features, and each has demand that is normally distributed, with a mean of 1,000 and a standard deviation of 700. Currently all four models are manufactured on the same line at a cost of $100 for Reguplo and $110 for each of the other three models. Reguplo sells for $200, whereas each of the other three models sells for $220. Any unsold blowers are sold at the end of the season for $80. Snoblo is considering the use of tailored sourcing by setting up two separate lines, one for Reguplo and one for the other three. Given that no changeovers will be required on the Reguplo line, the production cost of Reguplo is expected to decline to $90. The production cost of the other three products, however, will now increase to $120.

Analyzing Unearned Revenue Disclosures
The following disclosures (excerpted) are from the August 28, 2016, annual report of Costco Wholesale Corporation.
Revenue Recognition: We generally recognize sales, net of estimated returns, at the time the member takes possession of merchandise or receives services. When we collect payment from customers prior to the transfer of ownership of merchandise or the performance of services, the amount recieved is generally recorded as deferred revenue on the consolidated balance sheets until the sales or service is completed. Membership fee revenue represents annual membership fees paid by our memberships. We account for membership fee revenue, net of estimated refunds, on a deferred basis, whereby revenue is recognized ratably over the one-year membership period.

Other current liabilities 2,003 1,695
Total current liabilities $15,575 $16,539
(a) Which of the following statements best explains in layman terms how Costco accounts for the cash received for its membership fees?
Because Costco does not know how many of its members will continue to the end of the year, cash received from members is recorded as a liability and recognized as revenue only at year-end.
When it receives cash, the company records it as a current liability. Then, it recognizes revenue evenly over the year.
The company records revenue when the cash is received.
Because Costco has a refund policy, the company records revenue when the cash is received, less an allowance for expected membership terminations.
Mark 1.00 out of 1.00

Consider a simple example economy where there are two goods, coconuts and restaurant meals (coconut-based). There are two firms. A coconut producer collects and sells 10 million coconuts at $2.00 each. The firm pays $5 million in wages, $0.5 million in interest on an old loan, and $1.5 million in taxes to the government. We also know that 4 million coconuts are sold to the public for consumption, and 6 million coconuts are sold to the restaurant firm, which uses them to prepare meals. The restaurant sells $30 million in meals. The restaurant pays $4 million in wages and the government $3 million in taxes. The government supplies security and accounting services and employs only labor, and government workers are paid $5.5 million, collected in taxed by the government. Finally, consumers pay $1 million in taxes to the government in addition to the taxes paid by the two firms.
Required:
a. Compute GDP for this simple economy using the product approach.
b. Compute GDP for this simple economy using the expenditure approach.
c. Compute GDP for this simple economy using the income approach.
Answer:
1) GDP using product Approach ; Market value of all goods and services produced
= Coconut + Restaurant meal
= 10 million*$2 + ($30 million - $6 million*$2) as 6 million coconuts are sold to restaurant as raw materials so to avoid double counting.
= $20 million + $30 million - $12 million
= $38 million
2) Expenditure Approach : Consumption + Investment + Government Expenditure + Net Exports
= $4 million * $2 + $30 million + $5.5 million
= $8 million + $30 million + $5.5 million
= $43.5 million
3) Income Approach : Wages + Rent + Interest + Profit
= $5 million + $0.5 million + $1.5 million +$3 million + $4 million + $1 million
= $15 million
The lowest amount a manufacturer can pay factory workers is an example of
an incentive.
a price floor.
a price ceiling.
an elastic service.
Answer:
The answer to this question is given below in the explanation section.
Explanation:
The correct answer to this question is the price floor.
The Price floor is the lowest amount that is imposed by the government or group-imposed lowest price limit for a product or service. The government uses the price floor to keep prices at a certain level from going to low. So price floors for workers set by the government that the employer should not pay less than the set amount.
while other options are not correct because::
The price ceiling is the high amount set by the government or the by other groups for a product or service.
An incentive is an amount or something that can be given to employees or someone for motivation or encouraging them to do something.
An elastic service is given by amazon to develop and run the application with different tools etc.
Answer:price floor
Explanation:
n California, any apartment building with this many units must have an onsite manager, who is also known as a residential manager. What is the number of units to which this statement refers? Ten or more. Twelve or more. Sixteen or more. Twenty or more+.
Answer:
Sixteen or more.
Explanation:
It is mandatory by law in California to have an onsite manager, housekeeper, janitor, or another responsible person reside in a building with more than 16 apartments. Onsite means the manager or caretaker must be a resident in the building complex. The manager's role is to attend to the tenant's needs and offer protection to their properties. This requirement applies if the landlord is not a resident in the apartment building.
At the local banking institution the branch manager doubles as the IT "go-to" by handling printer setups, resettingLAN passwords, and periodically monitoring the branch’s server health. Last week she noted that a handful of herbranch’s customers complained about suspicious activity in their checking accounts. She knew that the main branchwould handle it and repair any fraudulent charges. She also knew better than to bother the main branch with these customer complaints because the main branch is always ahead of things like this and quickly reminds her that they seewhat she does. Her only response, therefore, was to assure her customers that their accounts would be repaired withinten business days.The most likely law or regulation that becomes an issue upon her discovery i:__________.
a. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act’s Safeguards Rule
b. The Good Samaritan Law
c. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act
d. The FTC’s Red Flags Rule
Answer: d. The FTC’s Red Flags Rule
Explanation:
The Federal Trade Commission has a Red Flags Rules that requires that financial institutions like Banks should implement a program that is capable of flagging instances of suspicious activity that could point to identity theft in the covered accounts that it holds.
This bank's customers are seeing some suspicious activity in their checking accounts which could point to a case of identity theft. The Red Flags rule could therefore be the most relevant rule to the manager's discovery.
Tom and Betsy, who are married filing jointly, reported a standard deduction of $24,000 on their 2018 tax return. They paid $500 to the state for income taxes in 2018. In 2019, they received a $125 refund of state taxes paid in 2018. What is the amount that Tom and Betsy need to report on their 2019 tax return?
Answer:
$0
Explanation:
Since Tom and Betsy didn't itemize their deductions in 2018 (they chose the standard deduction), they didn't include the state taxes in their tax filing. Since the state taxes were not used by Tom and Betsy to reduce their federal income taxes, then any refund will not be included in their current income. Only if state taxes are used to lower federal taxes, do taxpayers need to include any refund.
Tom Cruise Lines Inc. issued bonds five years ago at $1,000 per bond. These bonds had a 20-year life when issued and the annual interest payment was then 13 percent. This return was in line with the required returns by bondholders at that point as described below:
Real rate of return 4 %
Inflation premium 5
Risk premium 4
Total return 13 %
Assume that five years later the inflation premium is only 3 percent and is appropriately reflected in the required return (or yield to maturity) of the bonds. The bonds have 15 years remaining until maturity. Use Appendix B and Appendix D.
Answer:
$1,161.23
since the coupon rate is higher than the market rate, the bonds will be priced at a premium
Explanation:
In order to calculate the current market price of the bonds we can use the yield to maturity formula:
YTM = {coupon + [(face value - market value)/n]} / [(face value + market value)/2]
YTM = 11%n = 15 yearscoupon = $130face value = $1,0000.11 = {130 + [(1,000 - market value)/15]} / [1,000 + market value)/2]
0.11 x [1,000 + market value)/2] = 130 + [(1,000 - market value)/15]
0.11 x (500 + 0.5M) = 130 + 66.67 - 0.067M
55 + 0.055M = 196.67 - 0.067M
0.122M = 141.67
M = 141.67 / 0.122 = $1,161.23
There are 3 factories on the Momiss River. Each emits 2 types of pollutants, labeled P1 and P2, into the river. If the waste from each factory is processed, the pollution in the river can be reduced. It costs $1500 to process a ton of factory 1 waste, and each ton processed reduces the amount of P1 by 0.10 ton and the amount of P2 by 0.45 ton. It costs $1000 to process a ton of factory 2 waste, and each ton processed reduces the amount of P1 by 0.20 ton and the amount of P2 by 0.25 ton. It costs $2000 to process a ton of factory 3 waste, and each ton processed reduces the amount of P1 by 0.40 ton and the amount of P2 by 0.30 ton. The state wants to reduce the amount of P1 in the river by at least 30 tons and the amount of P2 by at least 40 tons.

Using a method similar to that used to calculate the consumer price index, the percentage change in the overall price level is_____________ . (Note: Use 2020 as the base year, and fix the basket at 2 karaoke machines and 6 CDs.) Using a method similar to that used to calculate the GDP deflator, the percentage change of the overall price level is_____________ . (Note: Again, use 2020 as the base year.) Which of the following statements is correct? Check all that apply.
a. The inflation rate in 2021 is not the same using the two methods.
b. The CPI allows the basket of goods and services to change.
c. The GDP deflator holds the basket of goods and services constant.
Answer:
The inflation rate is different using the two methods as the rate of inflation calculated by the CPI holds basket of goods and services constant while the GDP deflator allows it to change.
Explanation:
i. Value of market basket of the good in 2020 = ($50*2) + ($5*6) = $130
Value of market basket of the good in 2021 = ($70*2) + ($6*6) = $176
CPI in 2020 = ($130 / $130) * 100 = 100
CPI in 2021 = ($176 / $130) * 100 = 135.38
Thus, The percentage change in overall price level is = [(135.38 - 100) / 100) * 100 = 35.38%
ii. Nominal GDP in 2020 = ($50 * 20) + ($5 * 60) = $1300
Nominal GDP in 2021 = ($70 * 21) + ($6 * 80) = $1950
Real GDP in 2020 = ($50 * 20) + ($5 * 60) = $1300
Real GDP in 2021 = ($50 * 21) + ($5 * 80) = $1450
GDP deflator in 2020 = (Nominal GDP in 2107 / Nominal GDP in 2107) * 100 = ($1300 / $1300) * 100 = 100
GDP deflator in 2021 = (Nominal GDP in 2108 / Nominal GDP in 2108) * 100 = ($1950 / $1450) * 100 = 134.48
Thus, the percentage change in overall price level is = [(134.48 - 100) / 100) * 100 = 34.48%
QUESTION 4 / 10
Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Applying for several credit cards in one year can help
increase your credit score.
B. People with low credit scores are usually low-risk
borrowers.
C. The longer you use credit responsibly, the higher your
credit score will be.
D. Paying off your entire credit card balance can lower
your credit score.
Answer:
C. The longer you use credit responsibly, the higher your
credit score will be.
Explanation:
A credit card allows its user to access a short term loan. Every payment made via a credit card is considered a loan. The loan attracts interest monthly. Defaulting on credit card payments is similar to defaulting on any other loan type.
Responsible use of a credit card entails using it only when necessary. It means making prompt payments to clear monthly bills.
Credit card history is important information when tabulating an individual's credit score. Anyone who uses their credit card responsibly ends up with a good credit score.
In the late 1930s management at Atalanta Industries agreed to hire only those workers who were already members of the Electrical Union. Atlanta agreed to a type of arrangement known as a(n)
Answer: closed shop
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that in the late 1930s management at Atalanta Industries agreed to hire only those workers who were already members of the Electrical Union.
It should be noted that here, Atlanta agreed to a type of arrangement known as closed shop. This occurs when the workers have to belong to a particular union before they'll be employed. This was legal in 1930 but it was later declared illegal by Taft Hartley Act.
The current portion of long-term debt should
a. be paid immediately
b.not be separated from the long-term portion of debt
c. be reclassified as a current liability
d. be classified as a long-term liability
The current portion of long-term debt should be classified as a long-term liability. Thus, option (d) is correct.
What is debt?
The phrase “debt” refers to the money that one can borrow. Debt is the cash raised by issuing bonds or debentures.
A company's ability to pay off a long-term debt's current component within a year is represented by this number. So, a sum of this magnitude that is due in the next 12 months shouldn't be listed as a long-term liability.
Therefore, option (d) is correct.

BENEFITS OF COPORATE GOVERNANCE
Explanation:
Reducing the cost of capital. In today’s volatile environment, the implementation of good governance practices can lead to a reduction in a company’s cost of capital. An organisation that is seen to be stable, reliable and able to mitigate potential risks will be able to borrow funds at a lower rate than those with weak corporate governance. Companies with debt or equity investors may find that their investors pay a premium to work with a company that has a sound governance framework.
Improving top-level decision-making. There is a strong and demonstrable link between an organisation’s governance and rapid decision-making associated with improved performance, explains the Corporate Governance Institute in a recent report. Moreover, a number of performance failures have been directly linked to poor governance. There is no doubt that good governance assures rapid access to information and the good communication among stakeholders that leads to better results. Good governance also enables rapid and accurate prioritising of actions.

Pitbull Construction Corporation applies IFRS, has equipment that it can reliably measure fair value of, and has chosen to apply the revaluation model to valuing this equipment on its accounting records. The carrying value of this equipment on Pitbull's books at the end of last year, December 31, 20X1, was $200,000. At the end of this year, December 31, 20X2, due to decreased demand for the equipment, especially when resold as used, the fair value is $150,000. For the year 20X2, in relation to this equipment for which Pitbull has chosen to apply the revaluation method, Pitbull must:_________
Answer and Explanation:
If there is decrease in fair value of an asset as is seen in the example with Pitbull corporation, we decrease asset revaluation reserve in the balance sheet by the value reduced $50000 here to recognise new carrying value of the asset and then debit the expenses of revaluation to the income statement or profit and loss account. If there was an increase in fair value, revaluation would add to retained earnings in balance sheet and income in income statement
Assume that your father is now 50 years old, plans to retire in 10 years, and expects to live for 25 years after he retires - that is, until age 85. He wants his first retirement payment to have the same purchasing power at the time he retires as $55,000 has today. He wants all his subsequent retirement payments to be equal to his first retirement payment. (Do not let the retirement payments grow with inflation: Your father realizes that if inflation occurs the real value of his retirement income will decline year by year after he retires). His retirement income will begin the day he retires, 10 years from today, and he will then receive 24 additional annual payments. Inflation is expected to be 3% per year from today forward. He currently has $100,000 saved and expects to earn a return on his savings of 4% per year with annual compounding.
Required:
To the nearest dollar, how much must he save during each of the next 10 years (with equal deposits being made at the end of each year, beginning a year from today) to meet his retirement goal? (Note: Neither the amount he saves nor the amount he withdraws upon retirement is a growing annuity.) Do not round intermediate steps.
Answer:
$87,696
Explanation:
your father wants to get the same distribution during the whole 25 years that he is retired, but we must first determine the initial adjusted to inflation. The $55,000 that he currently earns will be equivalent to $55,000 x (1 + 3%)¹⁰ = $73,915.40 in 10 years.
Since your father wants to start collecting the distributions immediately after he retires, this is an annuity due. Using the present value of an annuity due formula, we can determine the money that he will need to have in 10 years.
PV = annual distribution x annuity factor
annual distribution = $73,915.40PV annuity due factor, 25 periods, 4% = 16.24696PV = $73,915.40 x 16.24696 = $1,200,900.55
That PV now becomes our future value that must be saved.
Since your father already has $100,000 in his account, that will turn into $100,000 x (1 + 4%)¹⁰ = $148,024.43
This means that he is $1,200,900.55 - $148,024.43 = $1,052,876.12 short.
Using the future value of an ordinary annuity formula, we can determine his annual contribution:
annual contribution = FV / annuity factor
FV = $1,052,876.12
FV annuity factor, 4%, 10 periods = 12.006
annual contribution = $1,052,876.12 / 12.006 = $87,695.83 ≈ $87,696
The city of Ashkelon, on the eastern end of the Mediterranean Sea, is one of the major cities of the Philistines. A powerful merchant family (known henceforth as The Family) of this city has to decide how to allocate its vast but finite resources to further their own wealth and the glory and influence of their state. Some trade routes use camel caravans and go to the southern deserts, where they may trade in salt and gold with the great inland African nations; others may go north and west, oversea by galley, toward the Greeks; others may push their foul-mouthed, humped mounts east, overland toward Sumeria, to trade in spices and the crafted goods specific to that region. Some of the routes are over more arduous terrain than others, so make take longer to pay off (no revenue is realized by The Family until the caravan returns to Ashkelon). The financial costs and returns of each route are as follows (in Phils, the currency of the Philistines:
Route Costs,Period 0 Revenue, Period1 Revenue, Period 2 Revenue, Period 3
African Route - 75,000 215,000
Greek Route - 50,000 140,000
Sumerian Route -125,000 385,000
Costs are incurred at the end of year zero, and revenues accrue at the end of Periods 1, 2, and 3, for each respective route (for instance, the African caravan returns at the end of period two, at which time its revenue is realized). The discount rate for the shipping company is 5%.
a. Calculate the NPV, B/C ratio, Payback period, and IRR for each route option
b. Rank the route options according to NPV, B/C ratio, Payback period, and IRR
c. If the company had unlimited funds, which trade routes would you recommend the family pursue? Why? Be sure to consider all combinations of routes, including multiple caravans on the same trade route
d. Given that the family can only invest 150,000 Phils, which combination of trade routes would you recommend pursuing? Why?
Answer:
African Route costs = -75,000, period 1 revenues = 215,000
Greek Route costs = -50,000, period 2 revenues = 140,000
Sumerian Route costs = -125,000, period 3 revenues = 385,000
discount rate = 5%
a) African route:
NPV = -75,000 + 215,000/1.05 = 129,762
B/C ratio = 215/75 = 2.87
Payback = 1 period
IRR = 187%
Greek route:
NPV = -50,000 + 140,000/1.05² = 76,984
B/C ratio = 140/50 = 2.8
Payback = 2 periods
IRR = 67%
Sumerian route
NPV = -125,000 + 385,000/1.05³ = 332,577
B/C ratio = 385/125 = 3.08
Payback = 3 periods
IRR = 45%
b) rank according to:
NPV = Sumerian route, African route, Greek route
B/C ratio = Sumerian route, African route, Greek route
Payback = African route, Greek route, Sumerian route
IRR = African route, Greek route, Sumerian route
c) if the family had unlimited resources, they should invest in the 3 routes since all their NPVs are positive.
d) African and Greek routes since they yield the highest gains (IRR).

Explanation:
how does the IoT and Big Data currently play into your job, your organization and the industry? Are these two things connected and if so, how?
Explanation:
The term IoT is an acronym for 'Internet of Things' which refers to a modern technology that allows certain physical objects or “things” as we may call it to connect to the internet.
While Big Data refers not just to large data, but to an innovative field of technology that specializes in analyzing very large (big) data sets.
Consider the education industry, by means of IoT, it is possible for school management to effectively track their student's academic progress in real-time.
IoT and Big Data connected in the sense that, as these physical things (objects) communicate over the internet, a mass amount of data ("Big Data") is been generated which could then be analyzed using specialized software. In other words, they are mutually beneficial.
