The answers are as follows:
1. When Peter Metcalf describes black diamond manufacturing facility in China as 'greenfield project', he means that BLACK DIAMOND BUILT THE PLANT AND OWNS IT COMPLETELY. Of all market entry strategies, this one carries the HIGHEST risk.
A greenfield project refers to a new facility or industrial plant that is built in a location where no such facility exist before. This means that such companies are usually the first of its kind in that environment. Such investment usually involves huge amount of money and other resources as the company has to build from scratch up. This type of market entry is considered to be very risky because it involves a lot of money and all this could be lost if things don't work out as planned. 

2. The following advice should be given to Peter, Thomas and Wim:
I. Recruit local people to work as sale people and distributors.
II. Research what people with annual income of less than US $1,500 really need.
III. Assign Research and Development the project of developing gears that meet the basic needs for warmth and dryness but can be manufactured inexpensively.
Since these three people intend manufacturing for people of lower income in the society, they have to take the above listed steps in order to reduce the amount of money spent during the production process and distribution period so that they will be able to make profits from the venture.

Andrews [41]

Answer: SEE EXPLANATION

Explanation:

Given the following ;

Values depending on Success

$150M, $135M, $95M, $80M

Risk free rate = 5% = 0.05

Pervebtage to be lost in case of bankruptcy = 25% = 0.25

A.) 0.25 × [( 150 + 135 + 95 + 80) ÷ 1.05] = $109.52 million

Assume a zero-coupon debt with a $100million face value

B.) 0.25 × [( 100 + 100 + (95×0.75) + (80×0.75)) ÷ 1.05] = $78.87 million

C.) Yield to maturity (YTM)

(100M÷78.87M) - 1

1.2679 - 1 = 0.2679 = 26.79%

Expected return = 5%

D.) Equity value

0.25 × [( 150 + 135 + (95×0.75) + (80×0.75)) ÷ 1.05] = $99.11 million

E.) share if no debt is issued

109.52 ÷ 10 = 10.95 per share

F.) Share price if debt of $100M is issued

99.11 ÷ 10 = 9.91 per share

The price differs because bankruptcy cost will Lower the share price.

1. Given the nominal interest rate of 17​% and the expected inflation of 13​%, then the value of the real interest rate is ___ ?
Veronika [31]

Answer:

According to fisher equation

(1+nominal Interest rate)=(1+real interest rate)(1+inflation)

1) So 1.17=(1+R)(1.13)

1+R=1.17/1.13

R=1.035-1

R=0.0353

Real interest rate = 3.53 percent

2) (1+NIR)= 1.03*1.04

  1+ NIR= 1.072

NIR= 0.072

Nominal interest rate = 7.2 percent

A lender prefers a higher real interest rate as he will earn more money on the amount he has lend if the real interest rate is higher.

A borrower will prefer a lower real interest rate as he will have to pay lower interest payments on an amount if the real interest rate is lower.

On January 1, 2020, Shay Company issues $700,000 of 10%, 15-year bonds. The bonds sell for $684,250. Six years later, on January
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

Discount on bonds issuance = $15750

Explanation:

A bond is issued at a discount when the issue price of the bond is less than the face value of the bond. This usually happens when the coupon rate paid by the bond is less than the market interest rate. To calculate the amount of discount on bonds issuance, we simply deduct the issue price from the face value of the bond. Thus,

Discount on Bonds = Face value - Issue price

As we know the face value of the bonds is $700000 and the issue price is $684250, we can calculate the discount on issuance to be,

Discount on bonds issuance = 700000 - 684250

Discount on bonds issuance = $15750

For financial accounting purposes, what is the total amount of product costs incurred to make 24,500 units
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

The product cost for 24,500 units is $497,350.

Explanation:

The reason is that the the product cost always includes all the variable production cost and specific fixed production cost. In this scenario, direct material cost, direct labor cost, variable manufacturing overhead cost are variable production cost whereas the fixed manufacturing cost is specific fixed production cost which will form part of product cost. The remainder of the cost left is period cost.

Direct materials (24,500 * $7.7 per unit)                               $188,650

Direct labor (24,500 * $4.7 per unit)                                       $115,150

Variable manufacturing overhead (24,500 * $2.2 per unit)  $53,900

Fixed manufacturing overhead (24,500 * $5.7 per unit)      <u>$139,650 </u>

Total product costs                                                                 $497,350

Anit [1.1K]

<em>The Dividend Valuation Model(DVM) is a technique used to value the worth of an asset. According to this model, the value of an asset is the sum of the present values of the future cash flows would that arise from the asset discounted at the required rate of return. </em>

Price of stock=Do (1+g)/(k-g)  

Do - dividend in the following year, K- requited rate of return , g- growth rate
