"Consider the futures contract written on the S&P 500 index and maturing in one year. The interest rate is 3%, and the future value of dividends expected to be paid over the next year is $35. The current index level is 2,000. Assume that you can short sell the S&P index. a. Suppose the expected rate of return on the market is 8%. What is the expected level of the index in one year? b. What is the theoretical no-arbitrage price for a 1-year futures contract on the S&P 500 stock index? c. Suppose the actual futures price is 2,012. Is there an arbitrage opportunity here? If so, how would you exploit it?"

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. $2125

b. $2025

c. there is an arbitrage opportunity.

Explanation:

a. St = So x (1+ rm)-D

So = current index price = 2000

rm = return on market = 8%

D = dividends = $35

inserting into the formula:

2000x(1+0.08)-35

= $2125

b.

So x (1+rf)-D

rf = 3%

2000 x (1+0.03)-35

= $2025

c. yes there is an arbitrage opportunity. the investor should go into contract with an exercise price of 2125dollars then short sell asset in future and after this, buy back after at future market price. since actual future price is 2012 and price expected is 2125.

Cosi Company uses a job order costing system and allocates its overhead on the basis of direct labor costs. Cosi expects to incur $900,000 of overhead during the next period, and expects to use 60,000 labor hours at a cost of $10.00 per hour. What is Cosi Company's overhead application rate

Answers

Answer:

150%

Explanation:

Calculation for overhead application rate

First step is to calculate the Total Direct labor cost

Total Direct Labor Cost = 60,000 hours * $10/hr Total Direct Labor Cost= $600,000

Last step is to calculate Overhead application rate

Overhead application rate = $900,000/$600,000

Overhead application rate = 1.5*100

Overhead application rate=150%

Therefore Cosi Company's overhead application rate is 150%

Social Media, Inc. (SMI) has two services for users.

Compute the predetermined overhead rate used to apply administrative costs to the two services assuming SMI uses the number of users to allocate administrative costs. b. Based on the rates computed in requirement (a), what is the profit for each service

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Toot! TiX Total

Users 17,900 24,100 42,000

Administrative costs $ 1,848,000

We need to allocate administrative costs to each product. First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,848,000/42,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate=  $44 per user

Now, we allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Toot!= 44*17,900= 787,600

TiX= 44*24,100= 1,060,400

Finally, the gross profit for each service:

Toot!:

Revenue= 2,200,000

Engineering cost= (1,096,250)

Administrative cost= (787,600)

Profit= $316,150

TiX:

Revenues= 2,400,000

Engineering cost= (1,213,750)

Administrative cost= (1,060,400)

Profit= $125,850

Preston Corp. is estimating its WACC. Its target capital structure is 20 percent debt, 20 percent preferred stock, and 60 percent common equity. Its bonds have a 12 percent coupon, paid semiannually, a current maturity of 20 years, and sells for $1,100. The firm could sell, at par, $100 preferred stock which pays a 5.52 percent annual dividend, but flotation costs of 5 percent would be incurred.

A company offers ID theft protection using leads obtained from client banks. Three employees each work 40 hours a week on the leads. These employees are each paid $25 per hour. Each employee identifies an average of 3,000 potential leads a week. There are no duplications in these three lists. Material costs are $1,000 per week, and overhead costs are $9,000 per week. An average of 4 percent of the potential leads actually sign up for the service, paying a one-time fee of $70. Consider the output as the fees generated. a) What are the labor hours productivity and the multifactor productivity for this operation

Answers

Answer:

Output = 4%*3000 * $70 * 3

Output = $25,200

Labor hours productivity = Output / Labor hour

Where Labor hour = 3 * 40 hours = 120 hours

Labor hours productivity =  $25,200 / 120 hours

Labor hours productivity = $210 per labor hour

Multi factor productivity for this operation = Output / Multi factor input

Where Multi factor input = 120*$25 + $1,000 + $9,000 = $13,000

Multi factor productivity for this operation = $25,200 / $13,000

Multi factor productivity for this operation = 1.938462

Multi factor productivity for this operation = 1.94

Forrester Company is considering buying new equipment that would increase monthly fixed costs from $425,000 to $445,500 and would decrease the current variable costs of $60 by $15 per unit. The selling price of $100 is not expected to change. Forrester's current break-even sales are $1,140,000 and current break-even units are 11,400. If Forrester purchases this new equipment, the revised break-even point in dollars would be:

Answers

Answer:

Break-even point (dollars)= $810,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs= $445,500

Unitary variable cost= $45

Selling price= $100

To calculate the break-even point in dollars, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 445,500 / [(100 - 45) / 100]

Break-even point (dollars)= $810,000

You are thinking of opening a Broadway play, I Love You, You’re Mediocre, Now Get Better! It will cost $5 million to develop the show. There are 8 shows per week, and you project the show will run for 100 weeks. It costs $1000 to open the theater each night. Tickets sell for $50.00, and you earn an average of $1.50 profit per ticket holder from concessions. The theater holds 800, and you expect 80% of the seats to be full. a. Given your other assumptions, how many weeks will the play have to run for you to earn a 100%

Answers

Answer:

39 weeks

Explanation:

initial investment = $5 million

Your goal is to a better person and get rich by doubling your development costs. You want to earn $10 million in profits, so you will need to sell a lot of seats.

8 shows per week x 100 weeks = 800 shows

revenue per ticket = $50 + $1.50 = $51.50

tickets sold per show = 800 x 80% = 640

total revenue per show = 640 x $51.50 = $32,960

variable cost per show (assuming 7 nights per week) = $7,000 / 8 = $875

contribution margin per show = $32,960 - $875 = $32,085

number of shows needed to earn $10 million in profits = $10,000,000 / $32,085 = 311.67 shows

number of weeks = 311.67 / 8 = 38.96 ≈ 39 weeks

If there was a 24% chance of having a contract signed to purchase a home in any one month and there were 55 homes on the market, what would be the probability that exactly 15 of them would have a contract signed during this month?
a. 10.3%
b. 24.0%
c. 66.7%
d. 23.0%

Answers

Answer:

a. 10.3%

Explanation:

PF of Binomial distribution is given as Pr.(x=x) = nCxP^x(1-p)^(n-x)

P = 0.24, n= 55, x =15 Note: C = Combination

Pr.(x = 15) = 55"C"15(0.24)^15(0.76)(55-15)

Pr.(x = 15) = 55"C"15(0.24)^15(0.76)^40

Pr.(x = 15) = 0.1026

Pr.(x = 15) = 10.26%

Pr.(x = 15) = 10.3%

What is the overhead cost per unit of each model? (Round activity rate and average OH cost per unit answers to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the activity rate for each activity:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Handling materials= 625,000/100,000= $6.25 per part

Inspecting product= 900,000/1,500= $600 per batch

Processing= 105,000/700= $150 per order

Paying suppliers= 175,000/500=$350 per invoice

Insuring the factory= 300,000/40,000= $7.5 per square feet

Designing packaging= 75,000/2= $37,500 per model

Now, we can allocate overhead to each model:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Deluxe:

Handling materials= 6.25*20,000= 125,000

Inspecting product= 600*250= 150,000

Processing= 150*50= 7,500

Paying suppliers= 350*50= 17,500

Insuring the factory= 7.5*10,000= 75,000

Designing packaging= 37,500*1= 37,500

Total allocated overhead= $412,500

Basic:

Handling materials= 6.25*30,000= 187,500

Inspecting product= 600*100= 160,000

Processing= 150*20= 3,000

Paying suppliers= 350*10= 3,500

Insuring the factory= 7.5*7,000= 52,500

Designing packaging= 37,500*1= 37,500

Total allocated overhead= $444,000

Finally, the unitary overhead:

Deluxe= 412,500/10,000= $41.25

Basic= 444,000/30,000= $14.8

Price Elasticity shows the change in quantity demanded when there is a change in price.

Change in Quantity demanded = Price elasticity * Change in price.

Change in price using midpoint formula;

[tex]= \frac{New price - Old Price}{\frac{New Price + Old Price }{2} } \\\\= \frac{4,000 - 6,000}{\frac{4,000 + 6,000 }{2} } \\\\= \frac{-2,000}{5,000} \\\\= -0.4[/tex]

Change in Quantity demanded = -0.9 * -0.4

= 0.36

= 36% increase

When the price of THE used car falls from $6,000 to $4,000, the percent change in quantity demanded  will be 36% increase.

Explanation:

Price Elasticity basically shows the change in quantity demanded when there is a change in price.

The formula for Change in Quantity demanded = Price elasticity * Change in price.

Change in price using midpoint formula = New price - Old price / (New price - Old price / 2)

Change in price using midpoint formula = 4000 - 6000 / (4000 - 6000/ 2)

Change in price using midpoint formula = -0.4

Change in Quantity demanded = -0.9 * -0.4

Change in Quantity demanded = 0.36

Change in Quantity demanded = 36% increase

In conclusion, the percent change in quantity demanded  will be 36% increase.

4. Give two reasons why GDP is often not seen as the best measure of living standards.


Answers

Answer:

Different factors account to it.

Explanation:

Because many factors that contribute to people's happiness are not bought and sold, GDP is a limited tool for measuring standard of living. To understand it's limitations better, let's take a look at several factors that are not accounted for in GDP.

GDP does not account for leisure time. The US GDP per capita is larger than the GDP per capita of Germany, but does this prove that the standard of living in the United States is higher? Not necessarily since it is also true that the average US worker works several hundred hours more per year more than the average German worker. The calculation of GDP does not take German workers extra weeks of vacation into account.

GDP includes what is spent on environmental protection, healthcare, and education, but it does not include actual levels of environmental cleanliness, health, and learning. GDP includes the cost of buying pollution-control equipment, but it does not address whether the air and water are actually cleaner or dirtier. GDP includes spending on medical care, but it does not address whether life expectancy or infant mortality have risen or fallen. Similarly, GDP counts spending on education, but it does not address directly how much of the population can read, write, or do basic mathematics.

A semiannual coupon bond with face value of $1,000 has a coupon rate of 6% and matures in 16 years. The market-determined discount rate on this bond is 14%. What is the price of the bond?

Answers

Answer:

$1,125.30

Explanation:

The Price of the Bond is its Current/Trading price also known as the Present Value (PV). This is determined as follows :

Fv = $1,000

Pmt = $1,000 ×  6% = $160

P/yr = 1

n = 16

i = 14%

PV = ?

Using the Financial calculator to enter the values as above, the Pv is $1,125.30.

Thus, the price of the bond is $1,125.30.

Suppose you won a $77,000 after-tax cash prize in the lottery. You want to start a new business that you think will lose money for a while, after which it will be up and running and bringing in big bucks. You plan to invest the funds immediately in securities that are expected to earn 8% per year. Suppose you would need only $19,000 per year during the start-up period. How long could you operate before you would require cash from the new business, i.e., how long could you receive payments of $19,000 per year? The first withdrawal will be made a year from today, and your answer will contain a fraction of a year.

Answers

Answer:

The right solution is "5.09 years".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Lottery amount

= $77,000

Withdrawal

= $19,000

Rate

= 8%

The number of withdrawal will be:

⇒ [tex]NPER(Rate,-withdrawal,lottery \ amount)[/tex]

On putting the values, we get

⇒ [tex]NPER(8 \ percent,-19000,77000)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]5.09 \ years[/tex]

On December 31, 2019 a company’s Accounts Receivable balance was $440,000. During the year the company recorded credit sales of $770,000 and cash collections of $820,000. In addition, the company wrote off $16,000 of accounts as uncollectible and reinstated and collected on an accounts receivable that was previously written off that totaled $3,000. The company uses the allowance method to account for its receivables.What is the effect of the accounting equation if the company fails to make the adjusting entry to record bad debt expense?

Answers

Answer: Option C - Assets are Overstated; No effects on liabilities: Equity is Overstated

Explanation:

When Bad debts are recorded, they will reduce the Accounts Receivable account because less money will be expected from debtors. Accounts Receivable is an asset account so it will be Overstated if bad debts are not recorded.

Equity will also be overstated because bad debts is an expense that is sent to the Income statement. If this expense is not deducted, the net income will be larger than it should be and when added to Equity it will overstate it.

The value of what a Canadian-owned Tim Hortons produces in South Korea is included in the Canadian ________ and the South Korean ________

Answers

Answer: GNP; GDP

Explanation:

The value of what a Canadian-owned Tim Hortons produces in South Korea is included in the Canadian GNP and the South Korean GDP.

Gross National Product refers to the total amount of domestic production and foreign production that can be attributed to the residents of a nation.

This means that GNP includes the GDP and income earned by residents of the country in other countries but less the income earned by foreigners in the country. For Canada therefore, the value of goods produced by the Canadian company in South Korea will be added to the GNP.

Gross Domestic Product (GDP) on the other hand is simply the total final value of goods and services produced in a country regardless of if it was foreigners or residents doing the production. The value of what a Canadian-owned Tim Hortons produces in South Korea is therefore included in South Korea's GDP.

Comparing with unemployment rate with employment rate, which of the following is NOT correct? a. Unemployment rate takes the group of "out of labor force" into account. b. Compared with unemployment rate, employment rate is better because it concerns the hidden unemployment in the out of labor force group. c. Compared with employment rate, unemployment rate in a labor market usually has a larger variation. d. It has limitation because some policy shocks unrelated to unemployment or labor market situation such changes in fertility and school enrollment rates, will affect the number of the employment rate as well.

Answers

Answer:

b. Compared with unemployment rate, employment rate is better because it concerns the hidden unemployment in the out of labor force group.

Explanation:

Remember, the employment rate is used to determine the degree to which the labor force (people willing to work) in a particular economy are able to find work.

Hence, it does not concern itself or takes into account the hidden unemployment in the out of the labor force group, but only those people willing to work are considered.
