Which are the most likely uses of capital invested in a business?

Several years ago, Castles in the Sand Inc. issued bonds at face value of $1,000 at a yield to maturity of 6.2%. Now, with 6 yea

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

The price of the bond is $659.64.

Explanation:

C = coupon payment = $62.00 (Par Value * Coupon Rate)

n = number of years = 6

i = market rate, or required yield = 15 = 0.15 = 0.15 /2 = 0.075

k = number of coupon payments in 1 year = 2

P = value at maturity, or par value = $1000

BOND PRICE= C/k [ 1 - ( 1 / ( 1 + i )^nk ) / i ] + [ P / ( 1 + i )^nk )]

BOND PRICE= 62/2 [ 1 - ( 1 / ( 1 + 0.075 )^6x2 ) / 0.075 ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + 0.075 )^6x2 )]

BOND PRICE= 31 [ 1 - ( 1 / ( 1.075 )^12 ) / 0.075 ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1.075 )^12 )]

BOND PRICE= $239.79 + $419.85 = $659.64

Sale price $60 $100 Variable costs $35 $60 Machine hours required for 1 vase 1 2 Total fixed costs are $600,000, and Rose Incorp

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

a) CM1 = 25

CM2 = 40

b) CMmh1 = 25

CMmh2 = 20

c) 25,000 units of Vase 1 and 12,500 units of Vase 2

d) OI = $ 525,000

Explanation:

a. Determine the contribution margin per unit for each type of vase.

The contribution margin per unit is equal to the difference between the sale price and the variable cost per unit:

$CM_1=P_1-VC_1=60-35=25\\\\\\CM_2=P_2-VC_2=100-60=40$

b. Determine the contribution margin per machine hour for each type of vase.

For the Vase 1, the number of machine hours per unit is 1. So the contribution margin per machine hour for Vase 1 is equal to CM1=$25.

For the Vase 2, the number of machine hours per unit is 2. Then, the contribution margin per machine hour for Vase 2 is equal to CM2=$40/2=$20.

c. Determine the number of units of each style of vase that Rose Incorporated should produce to maximize operating income.

There are 3 restrictions:

- Max 25,000 units of Vase 1

- Max 25,000 units of Vase 2

- 50,000 hours of machine hour

As the contribution margin per machine hour is higher for the Vase 1, so we start producing the more we can of Vase 1. The limit is 25,000 units.

Then, we are left with 25,000 machine hours available for Vase 2. We can produce 25,000/2=12,500 units, which is under the market constraint.

d. What is the dollar amount of the maximum operating income as calculated in C above

The operating income for the mix proposed in C is:

$OI=CM_1*q_1+CM_2*q_2-FC\\\\OI=25*25,000+40*12,500-600,000\\\\OI=625,000+500,000-600,000\\\\OI=525,000$

If you wish to have $60,000 in 8 years, how much do you need to deposit in the bank today if the account pays an interest rate o

liberstina [14]

Answer:

PV= $30,111.98

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Future value= $60,000

Number of periods= 8

Interest rate= 9%

<u>To calculate the initial investment, we need to use the following formula:</u>

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

<u>Isolating PV:</u>

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 60,000 / 1.09^8

PV= 30,111.98

31st December year 2

Dr cash $74,000

Cr Lease revenue $74,000

Dr interest expense $11,300

Cr Cash $11,300

Explanation:

Upon the receipt of $226,000 from bond issue,cash acount would be debited with $226,000 and bonds payable account would be credited with the same amount.

When land purchased,the land account is debited with $226,000 and cash is credited with $226,000.

The receipt of $74,000 from lease rental means that cash is debited and the lease revenue is credited.

The coupon interest on the bonds=$226,000*5%=$11,300

The coupon interest is debited to interest expense and credited to cash in each of the two years.

Reika [66]

Answer:

Westside Plumbing and Heating Company

Westside should accept the contract.

By accepting the contract at the price of $100,000, Westside incurs a total cost of $97,500 and makes a little profit of $2,500 ($100,000 - $97,500). The contract enables Westside to utilize the materials that it has in inventory instead of allowing it to deteriorate further in value.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Contract price = $100,000

Labor and equipment costs = $60,000

Original cost of materials = $50,000

Materials market price = $37,500

Total costs to be incurred = $97,500 ($60,000 + $37,500)

Profit to be earned = $2,500 ($100,000 - $97,500)
