masha68 [24]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The correct answer is option d.

Explanation:

An industry is comprised of a large number of small firms.  

Because of losses, many firms have left the industry.  

This will cause the industry supply to decline.  

The industry supply curve will move to the left.  

The new supply curve will intersect the demand curve at a higher point.

This leftward shift in the supply curve will cause the equilibrium price to increase and equilibrium quantity to decline.

Direct costs          $36,000  $55,600  $81,000                              $172,600

Step allocation:

HR direct costs        5,560   -55,600      11,120    19,460    19,460              0

IT costs                            0              0   -92,120    20,471     71,649              0

Repairs costs        -41,560              0             0    16,624    24,936              0

Total costs allocated      0              0             0 $56,555 $116,045 $172,600

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Usage data:

                      Repairs     HR       IT     M1      M2

Repairs                            0%     0%   40%   60%

HR                     10%       __     20%   35%   35%

IT                        0%       10%    __     20%   70%

HR Costs = $55,600:

Repairs = $5,560 ($55,600 * 10%)

IT = $11,120 ($55,600 * 20%)

M1 = $19,460 ($55,600 * 35%)

M2 = $19,460 ($55,600 * 35%)

IT costs = $92,120:

Repairs = $0 ($92,120 * 0%)

M1 = $20,471 ($92,120 * 20/90)

m2 = $71,649 ($92,120 * 70/90)

Repair costs = $41,560:

M1 = $16,624 ($41,560 * 40%)

M2 = $24,936 ($41,560 * 60%)

The concept of market efficiency underpins almost all financial theory and decision models. When financial markets are efficient
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Equal to

Explanation:

Financial theory assumes that financial markets are efficient and that there is no information failure in conducting financial transactions. However, this is an assumption and there could, in some instances, be asymmetric information in the form of adverse selection and moral hazards. For example, if managers of a corporation know how well or how poorly their business is doing than stockholders (as organizational performance determines the price of a security), then there would be an information failure or informational inefficency. Also, a potential investor who cannot distinguish between a firm whose security has a high potential for profit and low risks compared to that with a low potential for profit and high risk will be willing to pay a price that lies between the value of stock from bad firms and the value of stock from good firms. This will not augur well for good firms as their stock is underpriced and they will be reluctant to sell.

When the financial market is efficient, investors of stock would be able to earn supernormal returns on their investments. It is therefore neccessary that the price of a corporation's common stock should be equal to the present value estimate of the firm's expected cash flows discounted by it appropriate rate of return.

For the current year, Klay Corporation reports the following information:
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

The company’s cash flows from operating activities was a cash inflow of $5,000

Explanation:

Cash at the end of the year = Cash at the beginning of the year + Net cash inflows from investing activities + Net cash inflows from financing activities + Net cash inflows from operating activities

Therefore,

Net cash inflows from operating activities = Cash at the beginning of the year + Net cash inflows from investing activities + Net cash inflows from financing activities - Cash at the end of the year = $340,000 + $40,000 + $45,000 - $420,000 = $5,000 >0

The company’s cash flows from operating activities was a cash inflow of $5,000

natulia [17]

Here is the full question.

The employee credit union at State University is planning the allocation of funds for the coming year. The credit union makes four types of loans to its members. In addition, the credit union invests in risk-free securities to stabilize income. The various revenue producing investments together with annual rates of return are as follows:

Type of Loan/Investment               Annual Rate of Return (%)

Automobile loans                                8

Furniture loans                                   10

Other secured loans                          11

Signature loans                                 12

Risk-free securities                            9

The credit union will have $1.6 million available for investment during the coming year. State laws and credit union policies impose the following restrictions on the composition of the loans and investments.

Risk-free securities may not exceed 30% of the total funds available for investment.

Signature loans may not exceed 10% of the funds invested in all loans (automobile, furniture, other secured, and signature loans).

Furniture loans plus other secured loans may not exceed the automobile loans.

Other secured loans plus signature loans may not exceed the funds invested in risk-free securities.

How should the $1.6 million be allocated to each of the loan/investment alternatives to maximize total annual return? Round your answers to the nearest dollar.

Automobile Loans $  

Furniture Loans $  

Other Secured Loans $  

Signature Loans $  

Risk Free Loans $  

What is the projected total annual return? Round your answer to the nearest dollar.

$  

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the amount invested in:

Automobile loans be Xa,

Furniture Loans be Xf,

Other Secured Loans be Xo,

Signature loans be Xs,    &;

Risk-free loans be Xr

In reference  on the Annual returns rate given;

Total annual returns = 8%×Xa + 10%×Xf + 11%×Xo + 12%×Xs + 9%×Xr

The various constraints given can be written as follows:

Xa + Xf + Xo + Xs + Xr = 1,600,000-----Constraint for amount available for investment

Xr = 30%*1,600,000 ----- Constraint for maximum risk free investment

Xs = 10%*(Xa + Xf + Xo + Xs) -----  Constraint for maximum amount in signature loans

Xf + Xo = Xa ------- Constraint for Furniture and other secured loans

Xo + Xs = Xr  ------ Constraint for other secured loans and signature loans

Using the Excel Formula for solving this;

we have the following result.

Automobile Loans                     $ 504,000

Furniture Loans                         $ 136,000

Other Secured Loans               $ 368,000

Signature Loans                        $ 112,000

Risk-Free Loans                        $ 480,000

The projected total annual return = $ 151,040

The computation of the excel formula on how we arrived at those valid figures above is shown in the attached files below.
