Answer:

The expected return on the portfolio is:

10.31% ($3,331.40)

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Portfolio investments:  Expected Returns %   Expected Returns $

Stock M = $13,400           8.50%                           $1,139

Stock N = $18,900          11.60%                           $2,192.40

Total        $32,300          10.31%                           $3,331.40

Total expected returns in percentage is Expected Returns $/Total Investments * 100

= $3,331.40/$32,300 * 100

= 10.31%

b) The expected returns on the portfolio is derived by calculating the expected returns for each investment and summing up.  Then dividing the expected portfolio returns by the portfolio investment.  This yields 10.31% percentage value.

Kitty [74]

Answer:

cash provided by operating activities  84,000

Explanation:

net income  75,000

Adjustment (A)

gain on land   (500)

depreciation   1,500

Adjusted net income                  76,000

Change in working capital

↑account receivable   (3,000) (B)

↓long term AR             10,000 (C)

↑Account payable         1,000 (D)

Net changes                               8,000

cash provided by operating activities  84,000

<u>Notes:</u>

(A)

The net income may have non-monetary term, we need to remove those to get and adjusted net income on a cash basis

the gain on land is not a monetary term. We will record the proceeds in cash for the sale under investment activities, not operating as the business is not selling land every year.

depreciation is an accounting metric, is not an actual expense, it doesn't involve cash.

(B)

the increasein the Ar means more sales were not collected therefore, less cash collected.

(C)

the decrease in the long term AR  represent the collection, so it increases the cash

(D)

the increase in account payable represent the delay of payment, so company has more cash available.

On January 1, Year 1, Price Co. issued $190,000 of five-year, 6 percent bonds at 96½. Interest is payable annually on December 3
Tasya [4]

Answer:

a) Cash received = $183,350

b) Interest expense = $12,730

c) Carrying value = $186,010

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

a) Face value of bond = $190,000

Issued at =0.965

Cash received = $190,000 × 0.965

= $183,350

b) Discount on bonds payable = $190,000 - $183,350

=$6,650

Annual amortization of discount on bonds payable =$6,650÷5

= $1,330

Cash interest = $190,000×0.60

= $11,400

Interest expenses = $11,400+$1,330

= $12,730

c)

carrying value = $183,350 + ($1,330 × 2)

= $186,010

For the next 6 years, you plan to make equal quarterly deposits of $600.00 into an accountpaying 8% compounded quarterly. How mu
viva [34]

Answer:

Final Value= $18,253.12

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

For the next 6 years, you plan to make equal quarterly deposits of $600.00 into an account paying 8% compounded quarterly.

To calculate the final value, we need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= quarterly deposit= 600

n= 6*4= 24

i= 0.08/4= 0.02

FV= {600*[(1.02^24) - 1]}/ 0.02= $18,253.12

Consider this scenario: After many years, an employee is promoted to a position that has an elevated level of trust with his man
Stels [109]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option B: This employee should be granted access based on his current and past roles only after being formally reviewed for his effectiveness in the company.

Explanation:

To begin with, if the employee has past through several positions before then he must understand quite a bit how the company works in its whole and moreover that employee must be trusted due to the fact of the times that he was promoted and therefore that he must have granted access based on his current and past roles but only after being formally reviewed because of the fact of ensuring the effectiveness of the employee.

Martha Manufacturing produces a single product that sells for $80. Variable costs per unit equal $32. The company expects total
garri49 [273]
Each unit sells: $80
Each unit costs to make: $32
Fixed costs: 72,000
Goal: 2,000 units sold

If they meet their goal, let's see how that would go:

(2,000 * 80) - (2,000 * 32) - 72,000 = ?
160,000 - 64,000 - 72,000 = 24,000

24,000 is the profit they would make for hitting their goal.

Question 1:
What is the break-even point? The break-even means they make no money, but they also lose no money. So that final number (24,000) would be 0 instead. How many units would they have to make to hit zero?
(x * 80) - (x * 32) - 72,000 = 0.
80x - 32x = 72,000
48x = 72,000
x = 1500 units

We can verify by using our first formula we've already determined, using this new value for units.
(1,500* 80) - (1,500 * 32) - 72,000 = ?
120,000 - 48,000 - 72,000 = 0? True!

Question 2: If they increase their expenses by 16,000, what is their new break even point?

(x * 80) - (x * 32) - 72,000 - 16000 = 0.
80x - 32x - 88000 = 0
48x = 88000
x = 1833

Question 3: 10% reduction in selling price and 10% increase in sales. (Assuming based off the original formula the problem provided.)

Original: (2,000 * 80) - (2,000 * 32) - 72,000 = ?

10% Reduction in price: 8
80-8 = 72

10% increase in sales: 200
2000 + 200 = 2200

Plugin to our formula:
(2200 * 72) - (2200 * 32) - 72,000 = ?
158400 - 70400 - 72,000 = 16,000

Since this number is positive, this is income. (D)
