Answer:

Portfolio r = 0.161379 or 16.1379% rounded off to 16.1%

Option a is the correct answer

Explanation:

The expected return of a portfolio is the function of the weighted average of the individual stocks' returns that form up the portfolio. To calculate the expected rate of return of a two stock portfolio, we use the following formula,

Portfolio r = wA * rA  +  wB * rB

Where,

  • w is the weight of each stock
  • r is the return on each stock

Total investment in portfolio = 100 + 45 = 145

Portfolio r = 100/145 * 0.18  +  45/145 * 0.12

Portfolio r = 0.161379 or 16.1379% rounded off to 16.1%

In 2010, Norbert Incorporated bought a new tooling machine for $45,000. Norbert estimated that the machine had a useful life of
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Norbert should record at 2020 depreciation expense of $2,700 for the machine

Explanation:

The depreciable base can be calculated as follows;

depreciable base=acquisition cost-salvage value

where;

acquisition cost=$45,000

salvage value=$0

replacing;

depreciable base=45,000-0=$45,000

Annual depreciation expense=depreciable base/useful life

annual depreciation expense=45,000/15=$3,000

accumulated depreciation after 10 years=3,000×10=$30,000

New net book value=acquisition cost-accumulated depreciation+overhaul cost

New machine value=(45,000-30,000+12,000)=$27,000

New depreciation base=new machine value-salvage value

where;

new machine value=$27,000

salvage value=$0

replacing;

New depreciation base=27,000-0=$27,000

New Annual depreciation expense=new depreciation base/useful life

where;

new depreciation base=$27,000

useful life=5+5=10 years

replacing;

New Annual depreciation expense=27,000/10=$2,700

Norbert should record at 2020 depreciation expense of $2,700 for the machine

An important application of regression analysis in accounting is in the estimation of cost. By collecting data on volume and cos
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

(1) \text{Total Cost}=1246.67+7.60\ \text{Volume}

(2) The variable cost per unit produced is $7.60.

(3) The coefficient of determination is 0.96 or 96%.

(4) The estimated total cost is $5,046.67.

Explanation:

A regression analysis for the provided data is performed on Microsoft Excel.

The output is attached below.

(1)

The estimated regression equation that could be used to predict the total cost for a given production volume is:

\text{Total Cost}=1246.67+7.60\ \text{Volume}

(2)

The variable cost per unit produced is given by the slope of the line.

The slope of a regression line represent the value of the dependent variable for one unit of the independent variable.

So, the variable cost per unit produced is $7.60.

(3)

Consider the regression output attached.

The coefficient of determination is 0.96 or 96%.

This implies that the percentage of the variation in total cost that can be explained by production volume is 96%.

(4)

For Volume = 500 units predict the total cost as follows:

\text{Total Cost}=1246.67+7.60\ \text{Volume}

                 =1246.67+(7.60\times 500)\\\\=1246.67+3800\\\\=5046.67

Thus, the estimated total cost is $5,046.67.

Pharmaceutical Dispensary borrowed $ 630 comma 000 on January​ 2, 2018​, by issuing a 15 % serial bond payable that must be paid
OLga [1]

$273 ,000 being the equal  installments for  all the three years

Explanation:

I year interest  = $ 630,000 ×15÷100 = 94,500

I year interest  = $ 630,000 ×15÷100 = 94,500

II year interest = $420,000×15÷100 =  63,000

II year interest = $420,000×15÷100 =  63,000

III year interest = $210 ,000×15÷100 =  31,500

III year interest = $210 ,000×15÷100 =  31,500

Total interest = 94,500+63,000+31,500 = 189.000

Total interest = 94,500+63,000+31,500 = 189.000

Installments payment with interest for each year is=

(630,000 + 189,000 = 819,000÷ 3 = 273,000)

(630,000 + 189,000 = 819,000÷ 3 = 273,000)

  = $273 ,000 being the equal  installments for  all the three years

Kasey Corp. has a bond outstanding with a coupon rate of 5.82 percent and semiannual payments. The bond has a yield to maturity
Vilka [71]

Answer:

The quoted  price of the bond is $1,748.41  

Explanation:

The quoted price of the bond can be computed using the pv formula in excel which is given below:

=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

The rate is semiannual yield to maturity since the bond pay interest semiannually,which is 6.9%/2=3.45%

nper is the number of coupon interests the bond would pay over its entire bond life which is 24 years multiplied 2 i.e 48

pmt is the coupon interest payable semiannually which is $2000*5.82%/2=$58.20

The fv is the face value of the bond at $2000

=-pv(3.45%,48,58.20,2000)=$ 1,748.41  

The bond quoted price is currently $ 1,748.41
