The purpose of the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates during a recession is to encourage borrowing (borrowing becomes cheaper) and in this way especially for companies they may spend more money then on improvements, new products etc so the economy theoretically will be stimulated to counteract the recession.

1. $12.31
2. -11.96%
Explanation:
a) Calculation to determine the intrinsic value of a share of Xyrong stock
First step is to calculate the Required Return
Using this formula
Required Return = Risk-free Rate + [Beta * (Expected Market Return - Risk-free Rate)]
Let plug in the formula
Required Return= 5.5% + [2.7 * (17% - 5.5%)]
Required Return= 5.5% + 31.05% = 36.55%
Second step is to calculate g using this formula
g = ROE * (1 - Payout Ratio)
Let plug in the formula
g= 18% * (1 - 0.25)
g= 13.5%
D0 = EPS0 * Payout Ratio = $10 * 0.25 = $2.50
P0 = [D0 * (1 + g)] / [r - g]
= [$2.50 * (1 + 0.135)] / [0.3655 - 0.135]
= $2.8375 / 0.2305 = $12.31
b). Holding Period Return = [P1 + D1 - P0] / P0
= [$8 + $2.8375 - $12.31] / $12.31 = -$1.4727 / $12.31 = -0.1196, or -11.96%
Answer:
It is cheaper to make the part in house.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Harrison Enterprises currently produces 8,000 units of part B13.
Current unit costs for part B13 are as follows:
Direct materials $12
Direct labor 9
Factory rent 7
Administrative costs 10
General factory overhead (allocated) 7
Total $45
If Harrison decides to buy part B13, 50% of the administrative costs would be avoided.
To calculate whether it is better to make the par in-house or buy, we need to determine which costs are unavoidable.
Unavoidable costs:
Factory rent= 7
Administrative costs= 5
General factory overhead= 7
Total= 17
Now, we can calculate the unitary cost of making the product in-house:
Unitary cost= direct material + direct labor + avoidable administrative costs
Unitary cost= 7 + 5 + 5= $17
It is cheaper to make the part in house.
Answer:
2. Interest income will drop by less than $3 million for a sudden 1% drop in market interest rates
Explanation:
Since in the question it is mentioned that there is decrease in 2021 interest income of $3 million in the case when there is a sudden decline of 1% in the rate of interest of the market this is due to the convexity of the curve as the GAP analysis and assume straight line
So the option 2 is correct
