Jacqui decides to open her own business and earns $50,000 in accounting profit the first year. When deciding to open her own bus

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

C) $4,000

Explanation:

To calculate economic profit we can use the following formula:

economic profit = total revenue - (accounting costs + implicit costs) = (total revenue - accounting cost) - implicit costs

where:

accounting profit = total revenue - accounting cost = $50,000
implicit costs: ($20,000 x 5%) + $45,000 = $1,000 + $45,000 = $46,000

economic profit = $50,000 - $46,000 = $4,000

Cost of Debt KatyDid Clothes has a $150 million (face value) 30-year bond issue selling for 104 percent of par that carries a co

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

the annual pre-tax cost of debt is 10.56%

Explanation:

the beore-tax component cost of debt will be the actual market rate of the bonds, as they offer an interest rate of 11% but are selling at 104 points not at par thus, there is a difference between the rates.

We solve for the rate which makes the coupon and maturity 104

with excel or a financial calculator

PV of the coupon payment

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C 5.500 (100 x 11%/2)

time 60 (30 years x 2 payment per year)

rate 0.052787474

$5.5 \times \frac{1-(1+0.0527874736258532)^{-60} }{0.0527874736258532} = PV\\$

PV $99.4338

PV of the maturity

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 100.00

time 60.00

rate 0.052787474

$\frac{100}{(1 + 0.0527874736258532)^{60} } = PV$

PV 4.57

Adding both we should get 104 which is the amount the bonds is selling:

PV coupon $99.4338 + PV maturity $4.5662 = $104.0000

The rate is generated using goal seek or wiht a financial calculator.

This rate is a semiannual rate, so we multiply by 2 to get the annual cost of debt:

0.052787474 x 2 = 0.105574947

The cost of debt for the firm is 10.56%

A firm has a long-term debt-equity ratio of .4. Shareholders’ equity is $1 million. Current assets are $200,000, and the current

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Total debt ratio is 33.33%

Explanation:

A long term debt to equity ratio of 0.4 tells that the value of long term debt is 0.4 or 40% of the value of the equity. If the value of the equity is $1 million, the value of long term debt is,

Long term debt = 0.4 * 1000000 = $400000

A current ratio is calculated by dividing the current assets by the current liabilities. It tells how many current assets are available to satisfy $1 of current liabilities. A current ratio of 2 means that for every $1 of current liability, $2 of current assets are available. Thus, current liabilities are half of current assets. If the value of current assets is $200000, the value of current liabilities is,

Current liabilities = 200000 * 1/2 = $100000

Total liabilities = 400000 + 100000 = $500000

A debt ratio is calculated by dividing the value of total debt or total liabilities by the value of total assets.

Total assets = total liabilities + total equity

Total assets = 500000 + 1000000

Total assets = $1500000 or $1.5 million

Total debt ratio = 500000 / 1500000

Total debt ratio = 1/3 or 0.3333 or 33.33%

A firm plans to begin production of a new small appliance. The manager must decide whether to purchase the motors for the applia

blondinia [14]

Answer:

If the firm is going to need less than 50,000 motors, they should purchase them from the outside vendor.

If the firm is going to use between 50,000 to 59,999 motors, it should use process A.

If the firm expects to use 60,000 or more motors per year, it should use process B.

Explanation:

Process A:

contribution margin per unit = $11 - $7 = $4

break even number of units = $200,000 / $4 = 50,000 units

Process B:

contribution margin per unit = $11 - $8 = $3

break even number of units = $180,000 / $3 = 60,000 units
