Chris Bowie is trying to determine the amount to set aside so that he will have enough money on hand in 5 years to overhaul the

engine on his vintage used car. While there is some uncertainty about the cost of engine overhauls in 5 years, by conducting some research online, Chris has developed the following estimates.
Engine Overhaul Estimated Cash Outflow Probability Assessment
$300 10%
470 30%
740 50%
880 10%

How much รhould Chris Bowie deposit today in an account earning 6%, compounded annually, so that he will have enough money on hand in 3 years to pay for the overhaul?

Answer:

$515.53

Explanation:

CALCULATION OF THE ESTIMATED CASH OUTFLOW EXPENSES FOR ENGINE OVERHAUL

Engine Overhaul                          Probability                 Estimated Cash

estimated cash outflow(X)                 (Y)                           flow ( X * Y)

$370                                             10%                                $37

$470                                             30%                               $141

$720                                             50%                               $360

<u>$760                                             10%                                $76</u>

<u>$2320                                                                                 $614</u>

Present Value Factor, PVF, of 3 years and 6% = 0.839619(from the table)

hence, value = $614 x 0.839619

                     = $515.53

Amount Deposited = $516 (approx)

Flauer [41]

Answer:

Yield to call (YTC) = 7.64%

Explanation:

Yield to call (YTC) = {coupon + [(call price - market price)/n]} / [(call price + market price)/2]

YTC = {135 + [(1,050 - 1,280)/5]} / [(1,050 + 1,280)/2]

YTC = 89 / 1,165 = 0.07639 = 7.64%

Yield to call is how much a bondholder will earn if the bond is actually called, and it may differ from yield to maturity since the call price is generally higher than the face value, but the yield to maturity generally is longer than the call period.

Pop Consulting leased machinery to Red Inc. on July 1, 2018. The lease was recorded as a sales type lease. The present value of
labwork [276]

Answer:

The increase in earnings is $136511.56

Explanation:

Since the lease is a sale type of lease,it means that as soon as the machinery is delivered to the lessee,profit should be recognized on the lease transaction,which is computed below:

Profit on lease=present value of lease payments-costs

                         =$274149-$156000

                          =$118149

However,every six months interest is charged on the lease,which clearly indicates another source of earnings,the interest in the first six months is given below:

Interest=($274149-$44617)*8%

             =$18362.56

Please note that interest is charged after lease payment as lease payment is made in advance not in arrears.

Conclusively, the increase in earnings is $118149+$18362.56

That is $136511.56

Softa [21]

Answer:

$233,000

Explanation:

As we know that

Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + net purchase - ending inventory

where,

Beginning inventory = $32,000

Net purchase is

= Purchase - purchase discounts - purchase returns + freight in

= $240,000 - $6,000 - $10,000 + $17,000

= $241,000

And, the ending inventory is $40,000

So, the cost of goods sold is

= $32,000 + $241,000 - $40,000

= $233,000

We simply applied the above formula so that the cost of goods sold could come
