Answer:
King Arthur, right now Avalon's unemployment rate is <u>12.5%</u> but Avalon's natural rate of unemployment is 14.58%. Therefore, the Avalon economy is currently in a expansion.
Explanation:
Number of Unemployed = Labor force - Employed
Number of Unemployed = 24 - 21
Number of Unemployed = 3
The unemployment rate = (3/24)*100
The unemployment rate = 12.5%
The Natural unemployment rate = Frictional Rate + Structural unemployment Rate
The Natural unemployment rate = [(2+1.5)/24]*100
The Natural unemployment rate = (3.5/24) * 100
The Natural unemployment rate = 14.58%
From the solution, the current unemployment rate less than natural rate, thus the Avalon economy is currently in a expansion
Answer:
A. its operating income for the period will be higher than under absorption costing
Explanation:
As we know that
Under absorption costing, the fixed cost is divided on the number of units produced
And under the variable costing, the fixed cost is considered as a cost selling of goods so the absorption costing method will be lower than the value of finished goods.
As per the question, the started finished goods will help and sell the whole production and starting balance that means under absorption costing of goods which is to be sold is much than variable costing.
The market risk premium of Fund P will be 5.5%.
<h3>How to calculate the market risk premium?</h3>
It should be noted that as per CAPM, the return in stock will be:
= Risk free rate + Beta × Market risk premium
8.90% = 4.5% + 0.8 × Market risk premium.
Market risk premium = 5.5%
In conclusion, the market risk premium of Fund P will be 5.5%.

Answer:
0.1631 ; 16.31%
Explanation:
Given:
Cost of capital = 14% = 0.14
Debt to equity ratio = 60% = 0.6
Cost of debt = 9% = 0.09
Tax rate = 23% = 0.23
Cost of equity : cost of capital + debt - to - equity ratio * (1 - tax rate) * (cost of capital - cost of debt)
Cost of equity = 0.14 + 0.60 × (1 - 0.23) × (0.14 - .09)
Cost of equity :
0.14 + 0.60 * 0.77 * 0.05
0.14 + 0.0231
= 0.1631 ; 0.1631 * 100% = 16.31%
To calculate:
1) Net income (loss) for 2010.
2) Operating cash flow
Solution: 1)
Sales = $850000
Less: Cost of goods sold = $610000
Gross profit = $240000
Less: Administrative and selling expenses = $110000
Earning before Interest, Tax and Depreciation = $130000
Less: Depreciation = $140000
Earning before Interest and Tax (EBIT) = ($10000)
Less: Interest expense = $85000
Earning before tax (EBT) = ($95000)
Less: Tax = $0 (as company is having negative EBT or loss hence no tax)
Net loss = $95000
2) Operating cash flow
EBIT + Depreciation - Tax
Wherein, EBIT = Earning before Interest and Tax
($10000) + 140000 - 0 = $130000
