Financial institutions such as commercial banks, bond mutual funds, insurance companies, and pension funds maintain large portfo
inessss [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": unfavorably; increases.

Explanation:

As a measure to control inflation in the economy, the Federal Reserve (Fed) tends to <em>increase </em>the interest rate. This to have banks request fewer loans from the central bank which will result in offering fewer credits to individuals. If people have fewer sources of debt, the possibilities that an economic bubble -<em>continuous increase in price due to continuous increase in demand</em>- appear decreases.

However, if people have fewer sources of debt, private investment decreases, causing an <em>unfavorable </em>panorama for financial institutions offering large portfolios of assets.

an Corporation of Japan has two regional divisions with headquarters in Osaka and Yokohama. Selected data on the two divisions f
irinina [24]

Answer:

Part 1 - ROI

In terms of Margin :

Division Osaka  = 20 %

Division Yokohama  = 14 %

In terms of Turnover :

Division Osaka  = 400 %

Division Yokohama = 200 %

Part 2 - Residual Income

Division Osaka = $182,000

Division Yokohama  = $210,000

Explanation:

<em>Return on investment (ROI) = Divisional Profit Contribution / Assets Employed in the division x 100</em>

In terms of Margin :

Division Osaka = $ 455,000 / $ 2,275,000 x 100 = 20 %

Division Yokohama = $ 1,470,000/ $ 10,500,000 x 100 = 14 %

In terms of Turnover :

Division Osaka = $ 9,100,000 / $ 2,275,000 x 100 = 400 %

Division Yokohama = $ 21,000,000/ $ 10,500,000 x 100 = 200 %

<em>Residual income = Controllable Profit - Cost of Capital Charge on Controllable Investment</em>

Therefore,

Division Osaka = $ 455,000 - $ 2,275,000 x 12 % = $182,000

Division Yokohama = $ 1,470,000  - $ 10,500,000 x 12 % = $210,000

The company cost of capital for a firm with a 60/30/10 debt/common/preferred split, 8% cost of debt, 15% cost of equity, preferr
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

b. 8.82%

Explanation:

WACC = Cost of equity x Weight of equity + Cost of Preferred Stock x Weight of Preferred Stock + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt

Cost of Preferred Stock calculation :

Cost of Preferred Stock = Expected dividend / Market Price x 100

                                        = $6 / $50 x 100

                                        = 12 %

After tax cost of debt calculation :

After tax cost of debt = Interest x (1 - tax rate)

                                    = 8 % x (1 - 0.35)

                                    = 5.20 %

therefore,

WACC = 15% x 30 % + 12 % x 10 %+ 5.20 % x 60 %

           = 8.82 %

Which do you prefer of the options below? Is there an interest rate at which you switch your preference? If so, what is the rate
elena-s [515]

Answer:

As the first payment occurs on option 7 n interest rate higher enough can make the 50 dollars received first make the difference.

The switch produced at a rate of :

300%

Interest rate below this mark favor option 6

while higher than this favor option 7

Explanation:

Option 6

perpetuity of 100 discounted 1.5 year

\frac{100}{r} (1+r)^{-1.5}

perpetuity of 50 every 3 years discounted 3 years

as the payment are every three years we calcualte an equivalent rate:

(1+r)^{3} -1 =r_e

\frac{50}{(1+r)^{3} -1} (1+r)^{-1.5}

Option 7

perpetuity of 50 discounted 1 year

\frac{50}{r} (1+r)^{-1}

perpetuity of 100 every 2 years discounted 2.5 years

equivalent biannual rate

(1+r)^{2} -1 =r_e

\frac{100}{(1+r)^{2} -1} (1+r)^{-2.5}

having the formulas

we can do it on excel solver to look at which rate the switch produces
