The unlevered cost of capital is: Group of answer choices the cost of preferred stock for a firm with equal parts debt and equity in its capital structure. equal to the profit margin of a firm with some debt in its capital structure. the cost of capital for a firm with no debt in its capital structure. the cost of capital for a firm with no equity in its capital structure. the interest tax shield times earnings before taxes.
Answer: The cost of capital for a firm with no debt in its capital structure.
Explanation:
Leverage in finance refers to the use of debt. Unlevered capital therefore would refer to capital that is without debt which means that an unlevered cost of capital is one with no debt in its capital structure.
Companies with such a capital structure derive their capital 100% from Equity and as such do not pay interest. This means however, that they will not benefit from the tax shields that interest payments offer.
On January 1, 2012, Vaughn Manufacturing purchased for $768000, equipment having a useful life of ten years and an estimated salvage value of $42600. Vaughn has recorded monthly depreciation of the equipment on the straight-line method. On December 31, 2020, the equipment was sold for $125000. As a result of this sale, Vaughn should recognize a gain of
Answer:
Gain= $9,860
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchase price= $768,000
Salvage value= $42,600
Useful life= 10 years
First, we need to determine the annual depreciation and the accumulated depreciation at the moment of the sale:
Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)
Annual depreciation= (768,000 - 42,600) / 10
Annual depreciation= $72,540
Accumulated depreciation= 72,540*9= $652,860
If the selling price is higher than the book value, the company made a gain from the sale:
Book value= 768,000 - 652,860= $115,140
Gain/loss= 125,000 - 115,140
Gain= $9,860
Assume a firm is purchasing new equipment for a project. The selling price of the product along with the variable cost, fixed costs and annual depreciation expense have been determined. The firm is about to calculate its accounting, cash and financial break even points. Which break even points will the project reach first, then second and finally last
Answer:
cash break even point first followed by the accounting break even point and then finally the financial break even point.
Explanation:
As we know that
The cash break even point is
= Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution Margin
The Accounting Break Even Point is
= (Fixed Cost + Depreciation) ÷ Contribution Margin
And, the Financial Break Even Point is
= (Fixed Cost + Depreciation + Interest) ÷ Contribution Margin
So as we can see that the first the cash break even point, than the accounting break even point and the last is financial break even point
So, the first option is correct

Answer:
The time inconsistency of policy implies that
a. what policymakers say they will do is generally what they will do, but people don't believe them because of current policy.
Explanation:
When the current policy of a decision maker does not agree with the current practice due to the passage of time because policies that were determined to be optimal before now are no longer considered to be optimal today and are not implemented, then there is said to be a problem of time inconsistency of policy. It generally happens in the formulation and implementation of monetary policies by the central bank.

Assume that the risk-free rate of interest is 2% and the expected rate of return on the market is 8%. A share of stock sells for $50 today. It will pay a dividend of $3 per share at the end of the year. Its beta is 1.2. What do investors expect the stock to sell for at the end of the year?
Answer: $51.60
Explanation:
The Gordon growth model can be used to calculate this however both the required return and the growth rate will need to be solved for.
Required return using CAPM;
= Risk free rate + beta * ( market return - risk free rate)
= 2% + 1.2 * ( 8% - 2%)
= 9.2%
Current price is $50. Using Gordon growth model, growth is;
Price = Next dividend / ( Required return - growth rate)
50 = 3 / ( 9.2% - g)
( 9.2% - g) * 50 = 3
( 9.2% - g) = 3/50
g = 9.2% - 3/50
g = 3.2%
Stock price at end of year using Gordon growth model;
= (3 * ( 1 + 3.2%)) / ( 9.2% - 3.2%)
= $51.60
Jenin recently purchased 100 shares of Tarifi's Optical common stock for $6,000. The stock is expected to provide an annual cash flow of dividends of $400 indefinitely. Assuming a discount rate of 8 percent, how does the price Jenin paid compare to the value of the stock?
Answer:
Since the present value of the perpetuity ($5,000) is less than the price that Jenin paid for the stocks ($6,000), we can conclude that she paid an excessively high price for them.
Explanation:
Jenin invested $6,000 in stocks that yield a perpetual dividend. In order to compare if Jenin made a good deal we must find the present value of the perpetuity:
present value = annual cash flow / discount rate = $400 / 8% = $5,000
Since the present value of the perpetuity is less than the price that Jenin paid for the stocks, we can conclude that she paid an excessively high price for them.
We conclude that this stock is overpriced and it was purchased at a premium.
Total number of shares Bought = 100 shares
100 shares were purchased at the rate of $6000
The rate of discount is = 8 percent = 0.08
Cash flow = 400 dollars
To get the theoretical value of these 100 shares
Value = cash flow ÷ discount
= 400 ÷ 0.08
= $5000
Therefore the 6000 dollars that was paid to get the 100 shares is more than the calculated theoretical value of 5000.. We conclude that this stock is overpriced and it was purchased at a premium.

Amy and Hobbes are married and file a joint return. Their three children are 7, 9, and 18 years old. Their modified AGI is $58,000, and their tax liability on Form 1040, line 12a, is $3,647. They have no other tax credits for the tax year. What is the amount of their child tax credit/credit for other dependents on Form 1040, line 13a
Answer:
The amount of their child tax credit is $4,000 ($2,000 for each qualifying child).
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Modified AGI = $58,000
Tax liability = $3,647
Dependent children = 3 (aged 7, 9, and 18)
Qualifying children for child tax credit = 2 (aged 7 and 9)
Child tax credit = $2,000 x 2 = $4,000
Refundable tax credit = $1,4000 x 2 = $2,800
This means that Amy and Hobbes will pay tax of $847 ($3,647 - $2,800).
b) However, they can only be refunded $2,800 ($1,400 for each qualifying child). According to the IRS records, starting with the 2018 tax year until the end of 2025, the new $2,000-per-qualifying-dependent-child credit makes $1,400 of the Child Tax Credit refundable.

How many containers should be used
Answer:
the number of containers that should be used is 1.67 containers
Explanation:
The computation of the number of containers that should be used is as follows;
= Annual demand × time × (1 + inefficiency factor) ÷ holding pieces
= 71 × 0.83 × (1 + 0.16) ÷ 41
= 1.67 containers
Here The time is converted from minutes to hour i.e
= 50 minutes ÷ 60 minutes
= 0.83
Hence, the number of containers that should be used is 1.67 containers
In the short run, a supply shock will _________ the equilibrium level of prices and ___________ the equilibrium level output. reduce;raise raise;raise reduce;reduce raise;reduce
Answer: raise; reduce
Explanation:
A Supply shock is described as a situation where the supply of a good changes suddenly/ abruptly due to an unforeseen event.
Supply shocks can be positive but are usually negative so we will assume the supply shock is negative here.
If there is a negative supply shock, the amount of goods being produced will reduce abruptly which will force the supply curve to shift left.
It will then intercept the the demand curve at an equilibrium level that has a higher price and a lower quantity of output.
Think of it this way. Negative supply shock ⇒ less goods ⇒ scarcity ⇒ higher prices.

At the extreme, a firm that adheres to the conservative approach to finance current assets will finance all of its seasonal needs with long-term financing alternatives, thereby eliminating the need to use short-term financing. Such a firm will have extra permanent funds during off-peak periods, allowing it to store liquidity in the form of short-term investments during the off-season.a) trueb) false
Answer:
The correct answer is A) True
Explanation:
Seasonal needs are short-term in nature. To service them using short-term funds would prove more expensive over the long run.
Long-term finance in most cases have the characteristics of being relatively cheaper than short-term finance.
Chief among the sources of short-term finance are:
trade credits, Commercial Bank overdraftsCommercial paper, promissory note, andloans that are securedShort-term finances are usually less than a year. Whilst long-term finances generally span over one year.
Examples of long term finances are:
Equity Capitalgovernment debtBondsMortgages etcInterest payable on long term debts are usually single-digit whilst those on short term loans are usually double-digit.
As indicated in the information provided, companies that keep extra "permanent" funds preserve its value by placing it in short term investments

Someone offers to buy your car for four, equal annual payments, beginning 2 years from today. If you think that the present value of your car is $9,000 and the interest rate is 10%, what is the minimum annual payment that you would accept
Answer:
$3,123.13
Explanation:
we must first determine the price of our car in 1 year = $9,000 x (1 + 10%) = $9,900
this will be the present value of the ordinary annuity (4 equal annual payments)
$9,900 = annual payment x PV annuity factor
PV annuity factor, 10%, 4 periods = 3.1699
annual payment = $9,900 / 3.1699 = $3,123.13
According to the above equation, the minimum annual payment that would need to accept is $3,123.13.
What is the minimum annual payment?
Given Information:
Present value=$9,000Interest rate=10%Firstly, determine the price of our car in 1 year = $9,000 x (1 + 10%) = $9,900
Moreover, this will be the present value of the ordinary annuity (4 equal annual payments)
$9,900 = annual payment x PV annuity factor
PV annuity factor, 10%, 4 periods = 3.1699
Annual payment = $9,900 / 3.1699 = $3,123.13
