Suppose the real risk-free rate is 2.50% and the future rate of inflation is expected to be constant at 4.10%. What rate of retu

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer: 6.6%

Explanation:

The Pure Expectations Theory believes that the future long term rate is a reflection of future short term rates.

In terms of a 5 Treasury Security then, the rate of return to be expected is the risk free rate adjusted for inflation.

The Treasury Security has no risk but for inflation risk hence this is all that should be catered for.

Rate of Return on 5 year Treasury Security = Real Risk Free Rate + Inflation Rate

= 2.5% + 4.1%

= 6.6%

Multiple-Product Break-even, Break-Even Sales Revenue Cherry Blossom Products Inc. produces and sells yoga-training products: ho

zmey [24]

Answer:

Answer 1.

DVD Equipment Set Yoga Mat

Sale in Units 13500 4500 9000

Sale Mix 3 1 2

Sales Mix Ratio = 3:1:2

Answer 2.

Let the Break Even Sales = X Units

Therefore, Linear equation of BEP:

3/6 X (8-4) + 1/6 X (25-15) + 2/6 X (16-9) = 119520 (Fixed Costs)

X = 19920 Units

BEP of

DVD = 19,920 Units X 3/6 = 9960 Units

Equipment Set = 19,920 Units X 1/6 = 3320 Units

Yoga Mat = 19920 Units X 2/6 = 6640 Units

Answer 3.

DVD Equipment Set Yoga Mat Total

Sale in Units 13,500 4,500 9,000 27,000

SP 8 25 16

Sales in $ 108,000 112,500 144,000 364,500

Less: Variable Costs 54,000 67,500 81,000 202,500

Contribution 54,000 45,000 63,000 162,000

Contribution Margin Ratio 50.00% 40.00% 43.75% 44.44%

Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution / Sales

Overall Break Even Sales Revenue = $119520 (Fixed Costs) / 44.44% (Contribution Margin Ratio)

Overall Break Even Sales Revenue = $268,920

Answer 4.

Margin of Safety = Sales - BES

Margin of Safety = $364,500 - 268920 = $95,580

Fixed cost per mile 0.32 =(1600+1200+360+40)/10000.

Kristen Lu purchased a second user automobile for 8,000 at the start of last year and incurred the subsequent operatingcosts:8,000atthebeginningoflastyearandincurredthefollowingoperatingcosts ($8,000 ÷5 years) Insurance Garage rent Automobile tax and license Variable operating cost$ 1.600 $ 1.200 $ 360 $ 40 $ 0.14 per mile$The variable expense consists of gasoline, oil, tires, maintenance, and repairs. therefore the annual straight-line depreciation is$1,600.

The car is kept in a very garage for a monthly fee. Kristen drove the car 10,000 miles last year. Compute the typical cost per mile of Owning and operating cost of the the car. What costs above are relevant during this decision? Kristen is considering buying an upscale sports car to interchange the car she bought last year.

She would drive the identical number of miles irrespective of which car she owns and would rent the identical parking zone. The sports car's variable operating costs would be roughly identical because of the variable operating costs of her old car.

Assume you are a single person with no dependents who made $35,000.00 from your primary job and an additional $5,500.00 from a p

kirill [66]

Answer:

a) we will get a refund

b) $3,043.75

Explanation:

Given:

Income from primary job = $35,000.00

Income from part time job = $5,500

Total income = $35000 + $5500 = $40,500

Now, As per IRS, tax brackets for 2017 is as :

For income, 0 - $9325 = 10% of Taxable Income

For income, $9326 - $37950 = $932.50 + 15% of the amount over $9325

and, for income $37,950 - $91,900 = $5226.25 + 25% of amount over $37950

Standard Deduction is $6350 for single tax payer

Now,

The Net Income = Total income - Standard deduction

= $40,500 - $6,350

= $34,150

Total Tax due = $932.50 + ( $34150 - $9325 ) × 15%

= $932.50 + $3723.75

= $4,656.25

Thus, Withheld tax amount ( i.e $7700 ) is above the tax calculated

Hence, we will get a refund

b) Amount of refund = Withheld tax - Tax due as per IRS

= $7,700 - $4,656.25

= $3,043.75
