Answer:

(a) <u><em>normal</em></u>

<em>1.</em><u><em> Less than 1 but greater than 0 </em></u>

Explanation:

<em>Estimating demand elasticity of income is the percentage change in demand quantity divided by a percentage change in income.  </em>

Therefore, for a normal good, its demand's income elasticity would be positive.

In this scenario the demand income elasticity is <em>1/25 = 0.4. </em>

So here the truck is indeed a normal good because the value is positive.

Siebel Incorporated, a non-publicly traded company, has 2009 after-tax earnings of $25 million, which are expected to grow at 6
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Answer of each requirement is given seperatly below.

a What is the value of Siebel using the DCF method?

Value under DCF = CF * (1+growth rate)/ (WAAC" -Growth rate)

Putting values (assuming after tax earning is all in cash)

Value of SI = 25 (1+6%)/ 20%-6% = 189 million dollars

 

"WAAC calculation

Here WAAC is equal to cost of equity (ke) as company is debt free.

so

Ke = risk free rate + beta (risk premium)

    = 5 + 2.5 (6) = 20%

b What is the value using the comparable recent transactions method?

Based on recent tansaction the value of siebel incorporated will be               calculated as shown below

 Value of SI = Profit afte * 10 = 25 * 10 = 250 million dollars

Publicly-traded Rand Technology, a direct competitor of Siebel's sale is taken as bench mark.

c What would be the value of the firm if we combine the results of both methods?

By combining value of both value technique we get 189 + 250 = 439 million dollars.

Colin is 40 years old and wants to retire in 27 years. His family has a history of living well into their 90s. Therefore, he est
NARA [144]

Answer:

$2.1 million

Explanation:

Colin will retire at 67 and expects to live 28 more years. Be believes that he will need approximately $112,500 (in current dollars) per year to live while he is retired. His social security benefits are $30,000 + $20,000 in a government sponsored annuity (in current dollars) per year, so that means that he needs to cover the remaining $62,500. In order to calculate this, I will assume that Colin receives his first distribution on his 67th birthday (annuity due) and each distribution is made on an annual basis and received on the subsequent birthdays until he turns 94 (28th distribution).  

The $62,500 that Jordan expects to need once he retires must be adjusted to inflation (3%). In 27 years they will equal $62,500 x (1 + 3%)²⁷ = $138,830.56

Using an excel spreadsheet, I calculated the present value of Colin's 28 distributions using an 8% discount rate = $2,064,637.04 , which we can round up to $2.1 million

Colin currently has $200,000 in his retirement account and in 27 years (age 67), his account will be worth $200,000 x (1 + 8%)²⁷ = $1,597,612.29

this means that Colin will be $2,064,637.04 - $1,597,612.29  = $467,024.75 short

using the future value of an annuity formula, we can calculate the annual contribution:

annual contribution = future value / annuity factor

  • future value = $467,024.75
  • FV annuity factor, 8%, 27 periods = 87.35077

annual contribution = $467,024.75 / 87.35077 = $5,346.54

A company has a process that results in 12,000 pounds of Product A that can be sold for $8 per pound. An alternative would be to
eimsori [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is management should sell Product A now.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows:

Total production = 12,000 pounds

Sell price = $8 per pound

If process further, Cost = $80,000

Selling price = $14 per pound

So, If we sell the product without further process, than

Total sale value = 12,000 × $8 = $96,000

And, if we sell the product after further processing, then

Total sale value = (12,000 × $14) - $80,000

= $88,000.

As, sales value is more in selling the product without further process, so management should sell the product without further processing it.

Bumek [7]

Answer:

correct option is a) $441,000

Explanation:

given data

Cash payments = $455,000

beginning accounts payable = $64,000

ending accounts payable = $50,000

solution

we use here T account equation and get accrual-basis purchases that is

ending accounts payable = beginning accounts payable + Accrual purchases - Cash payments   .......................1

put here value we get

$50,000 = $64,000 + Accrual purchases - $455,000

solve it we get

Accrual purchases = $441,000

so correct option is a) $441,000
