Answer: $30,000
Explanation:
Company estimates that 60% of boxtops will be redeemed.
They sold 500,000 boxes
= 500,000 * 60%
= 300,000 boxtops will be sent in.
So far, 220,000 have been sent in. How many left;
= 300,000 - 220,000
= 80,000 boxtops are still to be sent in
4 boxtops are needed to receive a pottery bowl so with 80,000;
= 80,000/4
= 20,000 pottery bowls are due to be issued.
Each bowl costs $2.50 to make. Customers will send in $1 however so effectively it will cost the company;
= 2.50 - 1
= $1.50
With 20,000 still left to be issued, each costing $1.50, the total liabilitiy for outstanding premiums to be recorded at the end of 2007 is;
= 20,000 * 1.5
= $30,000
Answer:
$184,068.70
Explanation:
Given that
Annual payments = $31,000
Discount rate = 12%
Time period = 11 years
The computation of the present value is shown below:
= Annual payments × PVIFA factor for 11 years at 12%
= $31,000 × 5.9377
= $184,068.70
Simply we multiplied the annual payments with the PVIFA factor so that the present value could arrive
Refer to the PVIFA table
Answer:
The Target cost per dryer will be $35 per dryer
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the required return
Required return = Investment x Required rate of return
Where
Investment = $600,000
Required rate of return = 25%
Placing values in the formula
Required return = $600,000 x 25% = $150,000
Now calculate the return per dryer
Return per dryer = Required return / Expected sale = $150,000 / 30,000 = $5 per dryer
Now use following formula to calculate the target cost per dryer
Return Per dryer = Selling price per dryer - Target cost per dryer
$5 per dryer = $40 per dryer - Target cost per dryer
Target cost per dryer = $40 per dryer - $5 per dryer
Target cost per dryer = $35 per dryer
Answer:
P3 = $96.9425 rounded off to $96.94
Explanation:
To calculate the market price of the stock three years from today (P3), we will use the constant growth model of DDM. The constant growth model calculates the values of the 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 the dividend expected for the next period
- g is the constant growth rate
- r is the required rate of return on the stock
To calculate the price of the stock today (P0), we use the dividend expected for the next period (D1). So, to calculate the price at the end of 3 years (P3) we will use D4.
We first need to calculate r using the CAPM equation. The equation is,
r = rRF + Beta * rpM
Where,
- rRF is the risk free rate
- rpM is the market risk premium
r = 0.058 + 0.6 * 0.05
r = 0.088 or 8.8%
Using the price formula for DDM above and the values for P0, D1 and r, we can calculate the g to be,
80 = 1.75 / (0.088 - g)
80 * (0.088 - g) = 1.75
7.04 - 80g = 1.75
7.04 - 1.75 = 80g
5.29/80 = g
g = 0.066125 or 6.6125%
We first need to calculate D4.
D4 = D1 * (1+g)^3
D4 = 1.75 * (1+0.066125)^3
D4 = 2.12061793907
Using the formula from DDM for P3, we can calculate P3 to be,
P3 = 2.12061793907 / (0.088 - 0.066125)
P3 = $96.9425 rounded off to $96.94
Answer: Automatic withdrawal
Explanation: In an automatic withdrawal payment system the payee schedule the recurring payments on predetermined date, these are generally done electronically. These kinds of payments are generally done from banks or mutual funds accounts.
In the given case George’s parents are going to cruise thus they will not be able to pay for their bills hence they can use the automatic withdrawal system for the general bills they have to pay.
