Kate recently invested in real estate with the intention of selling the property one year from today. she has modeled the return

s on that investment based on three economic scenarios. she believes that if the economy stays healthy, then her investment will generate a 30 percent return. however, if the economy softens, as predicted, the return will be 10 percent, while the return will be -25 percent if the economy slips into a recession. if the probabilities of the healthy, soft, and recessionary states are 0.5, 0.3, and 0.2, respectively, then what are the expected return and the standard deviation of the return on kate's investment?

Assuming no direct factory overhead costs (i.e., inventory carry costs) and $3 million dollars in combined promotion and sales b
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

b. $22.75

Explanation:

We know that

Contribution margin per unit= Sales price per unit - variable cost per unit

Since the selling price is $35

And, the contribution margin is 35%

Therefore, the contribution margin per unit would be

= $35 × 35 per cent

= $12.25

Now add these figures in the formula above.

Hence, the value would be equal to

= $35 - $12.25

= $22.75

The inventory and labor costs are included in the variable cost

Explanation:

Financial accounting is an accounting technique used for analyzing, summarizing and reporting of financial transactions like sales costs, purchase costs, payables and receivables of an organization using standard financial guidelines such as Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).

Some of the financial terminologies used in financial accounting are;

1. <u>Amortization Schedule</u>: A schedule or table that reports the amount of principal and the amount of interest that make up each payment made to repay a loan by the end of its regular term.

2. <u>Amortized loan</u>: A loan in which the payments include interest as well as loan principal.

3. <u>Annual Percentage rate</u>: A value that represents the interest paid by borrowers or earned by lenders, expressed as a percentage of the amount borrowed or invested over a 12-month period.

4. <u>Discounting</u>: A process that involves calculating the current value of a future cash flow or series of cash flows based on a certain interest rate.

5. <u>Future Value</u>: The name given to the amount to which a cash flow, or a series of cash flows, will grow over a given period of time when compounded at a given rate of interest.

6. <u>Opportunity cost of funds</u>: A 6% return that you could have earned if you had made a particular investment.

7. <u>Time value of money</u>: A concept that maintains that the owner of a cash flow will value it differently, depending on when it occurs.

8. <u>Annuity due</u>: A series of equal cash flows that occur at the beginning of each of the equally spaced intervals (such as daily, monthly, quarterly, and so on).

9. <u>Perpetuity</u>: A cash flow stream that is generated by a share of preferred stock that is expected to pay dividends every quarter indefinitely.

10. <u>Ordinary annuity</u>: A series of equal cash flows that occur at the end of each of the equally spaced intervals (such as daily, monthly, quarterly, and so on).

11. Time value of money calculations can be solved using a mathematical equation, a financial calculator, or a spreadsheet. The equation which can be used to solve for the present value of a perpetuity is given below;

Present value of a perpetuity (PV) = PMT/r

Where;

  • PMT represents the payment amount.
  • r represents the annual interest rate.

Down Under Boomerang, Inc., is considering a new 3-year expansion project that requires an initial fixed asset investment of $2.
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Explanation: please refer to the explanation section

Initial fixed asset Investment = 2.33million = 2 330 000

Modified Accelerated Cost recovery System

The Fixed Asset Falls under the 3 year MACRS class the project the asset which states that Asset Depreciation range Midpoint is 4 years or less  The period for this project is 3 years

Estimated annual sales = $1735000

costs = $640,000

Initial Net working Capital  investment = $300,000

Residual Value (Value of the fixed asset at the end) = $255,000

a. Projected Cash flows

Year 0

Cash outflows = 2 330 000 - 300 000 - 255 000 = 2375000

                                year 1       year 2         year 3

Estimated sales 1735000 1735000     1735000

costs                  -640000    -640000      -640000

Depreciation     -791666.67  -791666.67    -791666.67

Residual Value<u>                     255000 </u>

Net sales          303333.33     303333.33  558333.33

Tax  25%  -<u>75833.33 -75833.33 -139583.33</u>

Net Cash flows  <u>227500           227500              418750</u>

Depreciation = (2330 00 + 300 000 -255000)/3= 791666.67

Tax =  Net sales x 25%

b Net Present Value (Required rate Return = 9%)

PV  =  227500/(1+0.09)^1 + 227500/(1 + 0.09)^2 + 418750/(1+0.09)^3

Present Value of cash flows = 723549.63

Net Present Value = 723549.63 - 2630 000 = -1906450.37

The net present Value is Negative indicating the project will not bring positive returns
