Answer:

The monthly withdrawal is $701.10  

Explanation:

The monthly withdrawal can be computed with PMT formula using excel spreadsheet.

The formula is PMT(rate,nper,-pv)

The fv and type are both taken as zero.

However, the rate of 5.5 % given in the question is a yearly rate,but the requirement of the question is monthly withdrawal, hence the rate is divided by 12 months to reflect a monthly rate i.e 5.5%/12

Besides, the nper should  also to be adapted to show that the withdrawal is to be made every month for 18 years, hence nper is 12*18

The computation of the pmt based on the above highlighted points is found in the attached.

The demand for one of X Company’s products has declined in recent years. The product is manufactured using designated equipment
Scrat [10]

Answer: $230,000

Explanation:

In our case,

Undiscounted future cash inflows from the sale of the product = $ 600,000 and

Carrying value of the asset = $ 720,000.

We can come to a conclusion that the benefit we get from the sale of the asset is less that carrying value.

Hence, the asset is said to be impaired.

Therefore,

Impairment Loss = Carrying value - Fair value of the asset

                            = 720,000 - 490,000

                            = $230,000.

A food manufacturer reports the following for two of its divisions for a recent year.
Over [174]

Answer and Explanation:

1. Return on investment is

= Operating Income ÷ Average invested Assets

here, average invested assets is

= (Invested assets, beginning + Invested assets, ending) ÷ 2

For Beverage Division

= $349 ÷ (($2,662 + $2,593) ÷ 2)

= $349 ÷ $2,628

= 13.28%

For Cheese Division

= $634 ÷ (($4,455 + $4,400) ÷ 2)

= $634 ÷ $4,428

= 14.32%

2. Profit margin = (Operating income ÷ sales) × 100

For Beverage Division

= ($349 ÷ $2,681) × 100

= 13.02%

For Cheese Division

= ($634 ÷ $3,925) × 100

= 16.15%

3. Investment turnover = Sales ÷ Average Operating Assets

For Beverage Division

= $2,681 ÷ (($2,662 + $2,593) ÷ 2)

= $2,681 ÷ $2,628

= 1.02 times

For Cheese Division, it would be

= $3,925 ÷ (($4,455 + $4,400) ÷ 2)

= $3,925 ÷ $4,428

= 0.89 times

Deffense [45]

Answer:

33.33%

Explanation:

Let weight of T-bill be x, therefore weight of stock will be 1-x

Portfolio = Weight of stock*Beta of stock + Weight of T-bills*Beta of T-bills

1 = (1-x)*1.5 + x*0

1 = 1.5 - 1.5x

x = 0.5/1.5

x = 0.3333

x = 33.33%

Therefore, the percentage of the portfolio invested in treasury bills is 33.33%.
