Answer:

Level of sales (dollars) to earn profit of $50,000

= <u>Fixed cost + desired profit</u>

 Contribution margin ratio

= <u>$275,000 + $50,000</u>

             0.5

= $650,000

Number of units to earn profit of $50,000

= <u>Level of sales</u>

  Selling price

= <u>$650,000</u>

       $200

= 3,250 units

The correct answer is A

Explanation:

First and foremost, the level of sales (dollars) to earn $50,000 profit is calculated, which is the ratio of fixed cost and desired profit to contribution margin ratio. Then, we will calculate the number of units to be sold in order to earn $50,000 profit by dividing the level of sales by selling price.

You observe a portfolio for five years and determine that its average return is 12.5​% and the standard deviation of its returns
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Yes, you can be confident that the portfolio will not lose more than 30% of its value next year

Explanation:

In this question , the average return of portfolio is 12.5% and the standard deviation is 19.5%. It is estimated that there will be 30% loss next year. The confidence interval is 95%.

Range = Average return ± 2 x Standard deviation Low aid = 12.5% - (2 x19.5%) =12.5% -39% = -26.5%

High end = 12.5% +(2 x19.5%) =12.5%+39% = 51.5%

Thus, the low end is

26.5%

The range of return at 95% confidence interval is -26.5% to 51.5%

Consider a $10,000 machine that will reduce pretax operating costs by $3,000 per year over a 5-year period. Assume no changes in
ki77a [65]

Answer:

A) $83

Explanation:

First, find aftertax OCF per year

aftertax OCF = (Operating benefit - depreciation)*(1-tax) +depreciation

Depreciation per year = 10,000/5 = 2,000

Tax = 34%

aftertax OCF per year = (3,000 - 2,000)*(1-0.34) + 2,000

= 660 +2,000

= 2,660

Next, find the PV of the aftertax OCF per year. It is an annuity;

PMT = 2,660

N = 5

I/Y = 10%

FV = 0

then CPT PV = 10,083.493

Subtract the initial cost of the machine to find the Net Present Value (NPV);

NPV = -$10,000 + $10,083.493

NPV = $83.493

The Federal Reserve purchases ​$8 million in U.S. Treasury bonds from a bond​ dealer, and the​ dealer's bank credits the​ dealer
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

The bank will be able to lend:

$42,105,263 ($8 million/ 0.19)

Explanation:

The above amount which the bank can lend from the $8 million received from the Federal Reserve for a customer is a function of $8 million deposit in a customer's account and the reserve ratio.  This is called the money multiplier.

The money multiplier is the amount of money that banks generate with each dollar of reserves. Reserves is the amount of deposits that the Federal Reserve requires banks to hold and not lend.  The level of Reserves and deposit liabilities determine the amount a bank can lend out.

The process by which banks create more money than the physical money is called money creation.  This shows that a bank creates more money in the economy through its lending activities.

A note payable was issued in payment for services received. The services had a fair value less than the face amount of the note
Leokris [45]

Answer:

The note payable will be presented in the financial statement at the face amount minus a discount calculated at the imputed interest rate.

Explanation:

The imputed rate is the rate at which the present value of the face amount of the note will be equal to the amount at which it is originally recorded.  

Notes issued or received in exchange for goods or services that do not bear interest at a fair rate are reported at an amount equal to the fair value of the note, the fair value of the goods or services, or the present value of the note using a fair interest rate, whichever is more readily determinable.  

The difference between the recorded amount and the face value is considered a discount and the applicable interest rate regardless of which method is used to value the note.

Because of this, the note is reported at its face amount minus a discount calculated at the imputed interest rate.
