Granfield can purchase a new machine for $128,000 and receive $22,800 in return for trading in its old machine.

Answer:

$26,000

Explanation:

The calculation of Net increase or decrease in income on replacement is shown below:-

Net savings in Variable cost for 4 years = Variable manufacturing costs × Life

= $19,800 × 4

= $79,200

Net Investment to be made in New machine = Initial investment of new machine - Traded in value of old machine

= $128,000 - $22,800

= $105,200

Net financial disadvantage of replacement = Net savings in Variable cost for 4 years - Net Investment to be made in New machine

= $79,200 - $105,200

= $26,000

So, for computing the net financial disadvantage of replacement we simply applied the above formula.

Which do you​ prefer: a bank account that pays 5 %5% per year​ (EAR) for three years​ or: a. An account that pays 2.5 %2.5% ever
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

c. An account that pays 0.5 %0.5% per month for three​ years.

Explanation:

We can evaluate all the option using following formula:

EAR = ( 1 + ( r / m ) )^m -1

a.

2.5% every six months for three years

r= 2.5% = 0.025 / 6 =

m = 12/6 = 2

EAR = ( 1 + 0.025  )^2 -1

EAR = 0.050625 = 5.06%

7.5% every 18 months for three years

r= 7.5% for 1.5 years = 7.5% / 18 = 0.4167% per month = 0.004167 per month

EAR = ( 1 + 0.004167 )^12 -1

EAR = 0.051166 = 5.12%

0.5% every month for three years

r= 0.5% = 0.005

EAR = ( 1 + 0.005 )^12 -1

EAR = 0.0616778 = 6.17%

We will prefer an account that pays 0.5 %0.5% per month for three​ years, it pays the highest return.

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

c,d and e

Explanation:

The correct statements given in the options are as stated below:

(c)-Terms FOB shipping point means the buyer accepts ownership when the goods depart the seller's place of business.

<em>This is true because Free on Board shipping means that the seller bears no liability whatsoever once the goods are shipped.</em>

(d)-When the shipping costs are the responsibility of the buyer, then the Merchandise Inventory account is debited for the freight charges.

<em>This is true because Free on Board shipping means that the seller bears no liability whatsoever once the goods are shipped, hence the shipping costs are the buyers responsibility and will form part of the costs of the goods</em>

(e)-Revenue for the sale will be recorded after the goods reach their destination, if the goods are shipped FOB destination.

<em>This is true because Free on Board destination means that the seller bears all liability whatsoever till the goods are delivered, hence the revenue for the goods can only be recognized upon successful delivery</em>

Nataly [62]

Answer:

YTM = 8.93%

YTC = 8.47%

Explanation:

P = \frac{C}{2} \times\frac{1-(1+YTC/2)^{-2t} }{YTC/2} + \frac{CP}{(1+YTC/2)^{2t}}

The first part is the present value of the coupon payment until the bond is called.

The second is the present value of the called amount

P = market price value = 1,200

C = annual coupon payment = 1,000 x 12% 120

C/2 = 60

CP = called value = 1,060

t = time = 6 years

P = 60 \times\frac{1-(1+YTC/2)^{-2\times 6} }{YTC/2} + \frac{1,060}{(1+YTC/2)^{2\times 6}}

Using Financial calculator we get the YTC

8.467835879%

P = 60 \times\frac{1-(1+YTM/2)^{-2\times 10} }{YTM/2} + \frac{1,000}{(1+YTM/2)^{2\times 10}}

The first part is the present value of the coupon payment until manurity

The second is the present value of the redeem value at maturity

P = market price value = 1,200

C = coupon payment = 1,000 x 12%/2 = 60

C/2 = 60

F = face value = 1,060

t = time = 10 years

Using Financial calculator we get the YTM

8.9337714%

When a company pays a dividend, it isn't as simple as getting a paycheck from one's employer. There are several critical dates i
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Flagon Transcontinental Corp.'s board of directors announced that it will pay a $1 million dividend in three months on this date - Declaration Date  On the declaration date, the firm announces that it will pay dividends. If the company is large, it pays for a press release on a newspaper, or even, on TV.

Transcontinental Corp. actually sent the dividend checks to stockholders on this date - Payment Date.

Self-explanatory, this is the date on which checks are sent to shareholders who were recorded eligible for payment on the record-date.

Flagon Transcontinental Corp.'s board of directors declared that whoever is listed as the owner of the stock on this date will receive the dividend for this year - Holder-of-Record date.

Also known as the record date, on this date, the firm determines which shareholders will receive the dividend.

Transcontinental Corp.'s board of directors set this date as the date on which the right to the current dividend no longer accompanies the stock - Ex-Dividend Date.

On this date, the value of the next dividend payment is substracted from the stock price. The Ex-Dividend Date is usually the day before the Record-Date, because shareholders that were found uneligible for dividend payment are now the holders of ex-dividend stocks.
