Bristo Corporation has sales of 1,000 units at $60 per unit. Variable expenses are 40% of the selling price. If total fixed expe

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

3.60

Explanation:

Given that,

Sales units = 1,000

Sales price per unit = $60

Variable expenses = 40% of the selling price

Total Fixed cost = $26,000

Contribution margin per unit:

= Selling price - Variable cost

= $60 - ($60 × 40%)

= $60 - $24

= $36

Total contribution:

= Contribution margin per unit × Sales units

= $36 × 1,000

= $36,000

Profit = Total contribution - Fixed cost

= $36,000 - $26,000

= $10,000

Degree of operating leverage:

= (Sales - Variable costs) ÷ (Sales - Variable costs - Fixed Expenses)

= (60,000 - 24,000) ÷ (60,000 - 24,000 - 26,000)

= 36,000 ÷ 10,000

= 3.60

North Bank has been borrowing in the U.S. markets and lending abroad, thereby incurring foreign exchange risk. In a recent trans

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

A) 10.82%

B) 5.27%

C) 8.56%

Explanation:

Given data :

North Bank Borrow ; $1.4 million at 5 percent

Lend in pounds at 9%

spread = ( 4% )

spot rate = 1.454

A) Determine the loan rate to maintain the 4 percent spread

Expected spot rate = 1.43

First step :

Lending amount = $1.4 million / initial spot rate = 1.4 / 1.454 = £ 0.9628 million

calculate the final amount Required in $ to maintain 4% Spread

= principal ( $1.4 million ) + interest ( 9% of 1.4 ) = 1.4 + 0.126 = $1.526 million

In pound ( at the expected spot rate )

= 1.526 / 1.43 = £1.067 million

expected profit = £1.067 - £0.9628 = £ 0.1042 million

Therefore the interest rate tp maintain the 4 percent spread

= 0.1042 / 0.9628 = 10.82%

B) Determine the net interest margin if the bank hedges its forward foreign exchange exposure

Forward rate = 1.46

assuming interest as value calculated above = ( 10.82% )

lending amount = £0.9628 million

Repayment = 0.9628 * 111% * 1.46 = $1.5603 million

therefore return rate = $1.5603 - $1.4 = $0.1603 million = 10.27%

hence : Net interest margin = 10.27% - 5% = 5.27%

C) Determine the loan rate to maintain the 4 percent spread if the bank intends to hedge its exposure using the forward rates.

Forward Hedging contract forward rate = 1.46

lending amount = $1.4 / 1.454 = £ 0.9628 million

Total Interest and Principal Repayment Required in $ to maintain 4% Spread = $1.526 million

In pound = 1.526 / 1.46 = £ 1.0452

Interest = £1.0452 - £0.9628 = £0.0824 million

therefore interest Rate to maintain 4℅ Spread

= ( 0.0824 / 0.9628 ) * 100 = 8.56%

Some economists believe that permanently lower marginal income tax rates __________ the incentive to work and thus shift the ___

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

The answer is "increase; LRAS curve to the right".

Explanation:

The curve LRAS represents the flow between all the level of wages and economic GDP supplied because all prices are fully flexible, also with nominal salaries; its cost may change all along LRAS, however, the output cannot, as it represents the complete output of workers, that's why the several economists say that lower marginal rate consistently increases the motivation to work, shifting the LRAS curve to the left.
