Answer:

First of all, Switzerland has one of the most open and free market economies in the world, while the US government says that our economy is open but compared to other capitalistic countries, the American economy is a very closed one.

The effects of any change in monetary policy will be more significant in a small open economy like Switzerland since foreign trade is very important to them.

An increase in the money supply will depreciate the currency of a country, and any effect on the exchange rate will affect more an open economy.

MArishka [77]

Answer: Manufacturers follow four steps to implement a manufacturing overhead allocation system. The last step is to: " B. Allocate some manufacturing overhead to each individual job ".

Explanation: The steps to implement a manufacturing overhead allocation system are:

1) Obtain a detailed list of all general manufacturing costs.

2) Choose an allocation base (machine hours, direct labor hours) to divide the general factory costs by this allocation base and assign general costs to each production unit.

3) The total allocation base is divided by the units produced to know the amount of manufacturing overhead associated with each unit.

1. The beta for Eastman Kodak is 1.10. The current six-month treasury bill rate is 3.25%. Estimate the cost of equity for Eastma
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

1) Cost of equity is 12.501%

2) Price of bond is $935.82

3) Price of semi-annual bond is $934.96

Explanation:

1) Given:

Beta = 1.1

Risk free rate (Rf) = 3.25%

Market risk premium (Rp) = 8.41%

Using CAPM to compute cost of equity:

Re = Rf + β (Rp)

    = 3.25 + 1.1(8.41)

    = 12.501%

2) Price of bond is present value of bond.

Face value (FV) = $1,000

Maturity (nper) = 10 years

Coupon rate = 8%

Coupon payment (PMT) = 0.08× 1000 = $80

Discount rate (rate) = 9% or 0.09

Using spreadsheet function =PV(rate,nper,pmt,FV)

Price of bond is $935.82. It is negative as it's cash outflow

3) Price of semi-annual bond is present value of bond.

Face value (FV) = $1,000

Maturity (nper) = 10×2 = 20 periods

Coupon rate = 8% ÷ 2 = 4%

Coupon payment (PMT) = 0.04× 1000 = $40

Discount rate (rate) = 9% ÷ 2 = 4.5% or 0.045

Using spreadsheet function =PV(rate,nper,pmt,FV)

Price of semi-annual bond is $934.96

<em><u>Interpretation: </u></em>the inventory is sold 3 and a half times during the year

Explanation:

the profit margin is the quotient between net income and sales.

\frac{net \: income}{sales} = $profit margin

127,500 / 1,640,000 = 7.77%

the inventory turnover wil be the cost of good sold over the average inventory during the year

(312,500 + 257,500)/ 2  = 285,000

982,500 / 285,000 = 3,447368421
