The correct answer is C. Candidate

Explanation

The candidate is a term to refer to the person who aspires (by own decision or from third parties) to occupy a certain position. It is a concept that has its origin in ancient Rome and referred to the tribunes, who used to wear white robes during the political campaign; so the term candidate was associated with the person dressed in white, but over time was associated with everyone who aspires to a position. It is a term widely used in the workplace and political running, for those who want to occupy a certain position fulfilling certain requirements such as education, age, city of residence, among others. So, the correct answer is C. Candidate

The common stock of Jensen Shipping has an expected return of 16.2 percent. The return on the market is 11.2 percent, the inflat

tankabanditka [31]

Answer: 1.66

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, the beta of the stock will be calculated as follows:

Expected return = 16.2%

Market return = 11.2%

Inflation rate = 3.1%

Risk-free rate of return = 3.6%

We should note that:

Expected return = risk-free rate + Beta × (market rate- risk-free rate)

Therefore,

16.2% = 3.6% + Beta × (11.2% - 3.6%)

16.2% = 3.6% + Beta × 7.6%

16.2% - 3.6% = Beta × 7.6%

12.6% = Beta × 7.6%

Beta = 12.6% / 7.6%

Beta = 1.66

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Discounted payback period shall be as follows:

a. 1 year 7.36 months

b. 2 years 3.27 months

c. 3 years 2.9 months

Explanation:

a. Payback period in case of cash outflow = $5,700

For calculating the pay back period we shall firstly discount the cash flows to present value @14 %.

Year Cash Flow PV Factor PV of Cash Flow Cumulative

Cash Flow

0 - $5,700 1 - $5,700 -5,700

1 $4,400 0.877 $3,858.8 -$1,841.2

2 $3,900 0.770 $3,003 $1,161.8

Since the cumulative cash flows are positive in 2nd year payback period =

1 + $\frac{1,841.2}{3,003} \times 12$ = 1 year and 7.36 months

b. Payback period in case of cash outflow = $7,800

For calculating the pay back period we shall firstly discount the cash flows to present value @14 %.

Year Cash Flow PV Factor PV of Cash Flow Cumulative

Cash Flow

0 - $7,800 1 - $7,800 -7,800

1 $4,400 0.877 $3,858.8 -$3,941.2

2 $3,900 0.770 $3,003 -$938.2

3 $5,100 0.675 $3,442.5 $2,504.3

Since the cumulative cash flows are positive in 3rd year payback period =

2 + $\frac{938.2}{3,442.5} \times 12$ = 2 years and 3.27 months

b. Payback period in case of cash outflow = $10,800

For calculating the pay back period we shall firstly discount the cash flows to present value @14 %.

Year Cash Flow PV Factor PV of Cash Flow Cumulative

Cash Flow

0 - $10,800 1 - $10,800 -$10,800

1 $4,400 0.877 $3,858.8 -$6,941.2

2 $3,900 0.770 $3,003 -$3,938.2

3 $5,100 0.675 $3,442.5 -$495.7

4 $4,300 0.592 $2,545.6 $2,049.9

Since the cumulative cash flows are positive in 4th year payback period =

3 + $\frac{495.7}{2,049.9} \times 12$ = 3 years and 2.9 months

Final Answer

Discounted payback period shall be as follows:

a. 1 year 7.36 months

b. 2 years 3.27 months

c. 3 years 2.9 months

The common stock of Buffalo Inc. is currently selling at $113 per share. The directors wish to reduce the share price and increa

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Buffalo Inc.

a. Journal Entry:

No journal entry required except a memorandum to record the split.

b. Journal Entry:

Debit Stock Dividend (Retained Earnings) $84 million

Credit Stock Dividend Distributable $84 million

To record the declaration of a 100% stock dividend.

When issued:

Debit Stock Dividend Distributable $84 million

Credit Common Stock $84 million

To record the issuance of stock dividends.

2. Both methods increase the outstanding number of shares by 100%. However, with a stock split of 2-for-1, there is no journal entry except a memorandum record to state the split.

Secondly, with a stock split or 2-for-1, the market price is also halved. This does not happen with a stock dividend. The market forces will determine and correct the market price to an acceptable level. A stock dividend requires some accounting entries to be made.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Current market price of common stock per share = $113

Par value per share = $10

Book value per share = $68

Shares issued and outstanding = 8.40 million

a. The board votes a 2-for-l stock split:

Shares outstanding = 16.80 million shares

Market price = $56.50

Journal Entry:

No journal entry required except a memorandum to record the split. The value of common stock remains the same.

b. The board votes a 100% stock dividend:

Shares outstanding will increase to 16.80 million shares

Market price = $113 and level off based on demand and supply.

Journal Entry:

Stock Dividend (Retained Earnings) $84 million

Common Stock $84 million
