Answer: 9.25%

Explanation:

The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) can be used to find the expected return of a project which is another term for the hurdle rate. This can then be used in the IRR method.

Formula is;

Hurdle Rate = Risk free rate + Beta( Market rate of return - risk free rate)

Hurdle Rate = 4% + 0.75( 11% - 4%)

Hurdle Rate = 4% + 5.25%

Hurdle Rate = 9.25%

Q 5.7: Hale Company sells merchandise on account for $1,000 to Long Company with credit terms of 2/10, n/30. Long Company return
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Ans. The amount of the check is $784

Explanation:

Hi, from the initial balance of $1,000, we have to substract the returned merchandise, which was $200, therefore, Long Company owes Hale Company, $800 if Long Company pays within day 11th to 30th of the day of purchase. Since Long Company plans to pay within the first 10 days from the date of purchase, they would be granted a 2% discount on their remaining balance, therefore, the amount that Long Company has to write the check for is:

Check=Remaining Balance*(1-Discount)

It should look like this

Check=800*(1-0.02)=784

So, Long would have to write a check for $784, that is if it pays within the first 10 days from the date of purchase.

Best of luck.

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

If the company's volume increases to 3,900 units, the total cost per unit will be $69 per unit

Explanation:

Variable cost per unit = variable cost/3,400 = $132,600/3,400 = $39

If the company's volume increases to 3,900 units:

Total Variable cost = Variable cost per unit x 3,900 = $39 x 3,900 = $152,100

Total fixed cost will not change = $117,000

Total cost = Total Variable cost + Total fixed cost = $152,100 + $117,000 = $269,100

The total cost per unit = Total cost/3,900 = $269,100/3,900 = $69 per unit.

A company has derivatives transactions with Banks A, B, and C which are worth +$20 million, −$15 million, and −$25 million, resp
timurjin [86]

Answer:

1. With Bilateral Clearing, where the company posts variation margin, but no initial margin:

The company has to provide collateral to Banks A, B, and C of $0 million, $15 million, and $25 million respectively.  

Therefore, the total collateral required is $40 million.  

2. With Central Clearing through the CCP, where the CCP usually requires an initial margin of $10 million:

The derivatives are netted against each other, and the company’s total variation margin is $20 million (–$20 + $15 + $25) in total.  

The total margin required (including the initial margin) is, therefore, $30 million ($20 + $10 million).

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Worth of derivative with Bank A = +$20 million

Worth of derivative with Bank B = -$15 million

Worth of derivative with Bank C = -$25 million

b) In a bilateral clearing, the company and each bank (called market participants) enter into an agreement with each other to cover all outstanding derivative transactions between the two parties.  On the other hand, in central clearing, a central clearing party (CCP) stands between the two sides of an OTC derivative transaction in much the same way that the exchange clearing house does for exchange-traded contracts.
