Answer:

The answer is b. manager's overall performance is 20% above expectations.

Explanation:

The budget overall performance is: Budgeted Contribution margin - Budgeted Controllable fixed costs = 1,000,000 - 500,000 = $500,000;

The Actual overall performance is: Actual Contribution margin - Actual Controllable fixed costs = 1,050,000 - 450,000 = $600,000;

Variance in dollar term of actual overall performance over budget overall performance = $600,000 - $500,000 = $100,000

% variance of actual overall performance over budget overall performance = 100,000/500,000 = 20%

Thus, actual overall performance is 20% above expectation.

Suppose a firm’s total revenue is $100 when it sells 10 units, and $110 when it sells 11 units. The firm, therefore, is a(n):

Andru [333]

Answer:

perfect competitor

Explanation:

Given:

Firm's total revenue when 10 units are sold = $100

Firm's total revenue when 11 units are sold = $110

Average Revenue = $\frac{\textup{Total revenue}}{\textup{Total units sold}}$

Average Revenue = $\frac{100}{10}$ = $10

and,

the marginal revenue = $110 - $100 = $10

Since,

the average revenue and the marginal revenue for the firm is equal,

therefore, the is a perfect competitor

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

bond 1:

YTM = {coupon + [(face value - market value) / n]} / [(face value + market value) / 2]

YTM = {750,000 + [(20,000,000 - 21,000,000) / 10]} / [(20,000,000 + 21,000,000) / 2]

YTM = 650,000 / 20,500,000 = 3.17 x 2 = 6.34%

after tax cost of debt = 6.34% x (1 - 15%) = 5.39%

bond 2:

YTM = {coupon + [(face value - market value) / n]} / [(face value + market value) / 2]

YTM = {1,160,000 + [(40,000,000 - 38,160,000) / 16]} / [(40,000,000 + 38,160,000) / 2]

YTM = 1,275,000 / 39,080,000 = 3.26 x 2 = 6.53%

after tax cost of debt = 6.53% x (1 - 15%) = 5.55%

bond 3:

YTM = {coupon + [(face value - market value) / n]} / [(face value + market value) / 2]

YTM = {1,732,500 + [(45,000,000 - 46,710,000) / 31]} / [(45,000,000 + 46,710,000) / 2]

YTM = 1,677,339 / 45,855,000 = 3.66 x 2 = 7.32%

after tax cost of debt = 7.32% x (1 - 15%) = 6.22%

bond 4:

YTM = {coupon + [(face value - market value) / n]} / [(face value + market value) / 2]

YTM = {2,430,000 + [(60,000,000 - 63,420,000) / 50]} / [(60,000,000 + 63,420,000) / 2]

YTM = 2,361,600 / 61,710,000 = 3.83 x 2 = 7.65%

after tax cost of debt = 7.65% x (1 - 15%) = 6.51%

A property is being appraised using the income capitalization approach. Annually, it has an estimated gross income of $48,000, v

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

$368,000

Explanation:

In order to appraise the property using the capitalization approach, we must first determine a net cash flow:

net cash flow = $48,000 - $3,600 - $15,000 = $29,400

Now we calculate the property value using the perpetuity formula:

property value = net cash flow / capitalization rate = $29,400 / 8% = $367,500 which we must round up to $368,000

A property is being appraised using the income capitalization approach. Annually, it has an estimated gross income of $48,000, vacancy and credit losses of $3,600, and operating expenses of $15,000. Using a capitalization rate of 8%, what is the property's value (rounded up to the nearest $1,000)?
