Ksivusya [100]

0.013 is the annualized rate of occurrence (ARO) for a natural disaster affecting an organization.

Annualised Rate of Occurrence (ARO): An expected frequency of the hazard occurring over the course of a year is known as the Annualised Rate of Occurrence (ARO). ALE is computed using ARO (annualized loss expectancy).

The annualised rate is applicable for a specific amount of time (less than 12 months). It is a mathematical extrapolation of an estimated yearly returns rate. In order to determine it, multiply the monthly change in returns rate by 12 to obtain the annual rate.

Calculate the following: The future value of lump-sum investment of $3,200 in four years that earns 6 percent. Round your answer
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

(a) $4,040

(b) $3,434

(c) $348

(d) $3,265

Explanation:

(a) Calculate the following: The future value of lump-sum investment of $3,200 in four years that earns 6 percent. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. (Hint: Use Appendix A.1 or the Garman/Forgue companion website.) Round Future value of a Single Amount in intermediate calculations to four decimal places. $

To estimate this, the formula for calculating future value is used as follows:

FV = PV * (1 + r)^n ………………………….. (1)

Where,

FV = future value = ?

PV = lump-sum investment = $3,200

r = interest rate = 6%, or 0.06

n = number of years = 4

Substitute the values into equation (1) to have:

FV = $3,200 * (1 + 0.06)^4

FV = $3,200 * (1.06)^4

FV = $3,200 * 1.2625

FV = $4,040

(b) The future value of $1,100 saved each year for three years that earns 4 percent. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. (Hint: Use Appendix A.3 or the Garman/Forgue companion website.) Round Future value of Series of Equal Amounts in intermediate calculations to four decimal places. $

To calculate this, the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity is used as follows:

FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (2)

Where,

FV = Future value of the amount after 3 years =?

M = Annual savings = $1,100

r = interest rate = 4%, or 0.04

n = number of years = 3

Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:

FV = $1,100 * (((1 + 0.04)^3 - 1) / 0.04)

FV = $1,100 * 3.1216

FV = $3,434

(c) A person who invests $1,800 each year finds one choice that is expected to pay 4 percent per year and another choice that may pay 7 percent. What is the difference in return if the investment is made for four years? Round your answer to the nearest dollar. (Hint: Use Appendix A.3 or the Garman/Forgue companion website.) Round Future value of Series of Equal Amounts in intermediate calculations to four decimal places. $

To do this, we first calculate the return of each of the 2  investments by using the the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity in part b above is used as follows:

<u>Calculation of return at 4 percent</u>

Where;

FV at 4% = Future value of the return after 4 years =?

M = Annual savings = $1,800

r = interest rate = 4%, or 0.04

n = number of years = 4

Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:

FV at 4% = $1,800 * (((1 + 0.04)^4 - 1) / 0.04)

FV  at 4% = $1,800 * 4.2465

FV  at 4% = $7,644

<u>Calculation of return at 7 percent</u>

Where;

FV at 7% = Future value of the return after 4 years =?

M = Annual savings = $1,800

r = interest rate = 7%, or 0.07

n = number of years = 4

Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:

FV at 7%= $1,800 * (((1 + 0.07)^4 - 1) / 0.07)

FV at 7% = $1,800 * 4.4399

FV at 7% = $7,992

<u>Calculation of the difference in return</u>

This is calculated as follows:

Difference = FV at 7% - FV at 4% = $7,992 - $7,644 = $348

(d) The amount a person would need to deposit today with a 7 percent interest rate to have $4,000 in three years. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. (Hint: Use Appendix A.2 or the Garman/Forgue companion website.) Round Present value of a Single Amount in intermediate calculations to four decimal places. $

To estimate this, the formula for calculating present value is used as follows:

PV = FV / (1 + r)^n ………………………….. (1)

Where;

PV = Present value or amount to deposit today = ?

FV = future value in three years = $4,000

r = interest rate = 7%, or 0.07

n = number of years = 3

Substitute the values into equation (1) to have:

PV = $4,000 / (1 + 0.07)^3

PV = $4,000 / 1.2250

PV = $3,265

Craftwell Inc. pays a​ $0.75 dividend every quarter and will maintain this policy forever. What price should you pay for one sha
Advocard [28]

Answer:

Quarterly dividend (D) = $0.75

Annual return (Ke) = 10.5% = 0.105

Quarterly return = 0.105/4 = 0.02625

Current market price = <u>Quarterly dividend</u>

                                       Quarterly return

                                   =<u> $0.75</u>

                                       0.02625

                                  = $28.57

Explanation:

Current market price is the ratio of quarterly dividend paid divided by quarterly return.

ddd [48]

Answer:

7.38%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what would be AJC's new WACC and total value

Using this formula

WACC and total value=(Equity)(Required rate of return on equity)+(Debt)(1-Tax rate)(Required rate of return on debt)

Let plug in the formula

WACC and total value=(0.6)(0.095)+(0.4)(1-0.4)(0.07)

WACC and total value=0.057+0.0168

WACC and total value=0.0738*100

WACC and total value=7.38%

Therefore would be AJC's new WACC and total value is 7.38%
