Answer:
a-1)
- Project A = 0.70
- Project B = 0.64
- Project C = 0.81
- Project D = 1.29
a-2) Mountain Ski Corp. should choose projects D and C
b) Lakeway Train Co. should choose project B
Explanation:
It’s needed to calculate the coefficient of variation for each project
Formula: CV=σ/μ
Where:
σ = standard deviation
μ = mean
The coefficient of variation (CV) is a ratio that compares the standard deviation with the mean of a project`s return, indicating the volatility and risk of it. The lower its value the better risk-return trade-off. So, a company set up to take large risks such as Mountain Ski Corp. would choose projects with high CV (Projects D and C), and a risk-averse company such as Lakeway Train Co. would choose projects with low CV (Project B).
Answer: $403.20
Explanation:We use a mortgage calculator to calculate the interest paid in the final payment. Since each repayment is made at the end of year, the repayments are annual payments. So, the calculator should have an annual amortization schedule to solve the problem.
I used
http://www.calculator.net/loan-calculator for the calculation because it has an annual payment schedule. Then, I went under the subtitle
Paying Back a Fixed Amount Periodically because the payments are equal. In that online calculator, I just input these data:
- Loan Amount: $12,000
- Loan Term: 4 (Loan term is number of years to pay the loan)
- Interest Rate: 11.5%
- Compound: Annually (APY)
- Pay Back: Every year
Then, I clicked the
calculate button and view amortization table. The annual amortization schedule is attached in this answer.
To determine the interest paid at the final payment, I looked at payment #4 because the final payment is at the 4th year. (The loan is paid in 4 annual payments).
As seen in the attached image, the interest paid in payment #4 is $403.20. Hence, the interest paid in the final payment is
$403.20.
Answer:
$30.1
Explanation:
Adjusted basis refers to the net value of an asset after considering depreciation and capital investments. It is the net value of an asset.
Adjusted taxable income is the income after adjusting for depreciation and interest.
For a sole proprietorship, the income of the business is the same as owners' income.
For Renee, adjusted taxable income will be,
Total revenue= $85M
Net expenses equal to total revenue minus depreciation minus interest paid
=$78.1, - $10.1 - $12.7
=$54.9
Adjusted taxable income= Total revenue - net expenses
= $85 - $54.9
=$30.1
Answer:
Varies directly with the interest rate.
Explanation:
Varies directly with the interest rate.
The opportunity cost of holding the money will be the earning that can be made by investing the money. Basically, it is the interest rate that an investment provides when money is invested. If the money is not invested and it just held then the interest rate that could be earned is the opportunity cost.
Answer:
Contribution margin per unit = $250
Contribution margin ratio = 55.56%
Explanation:
The computations are shown below:
Contribution margin per unit = Sale price per unit - variable cost per unit
= $450 - $200
= $250
Contribution margin ratio would be
= (Contribution margin per unit) ÷ (Sale price per unit) × 100
= ($250) ÷ ($450) × 100
= 55.56%
And, the contribution margin income statement for may month is presented below:
Sales (225 bikes × $450) $101,250
Less: Variable cost (225 bikes × $200) ($45,000)
Contribution margin $56,250
Less: Fixed expenses per month ($40,000)
Net income $16,250
