An all-equity firm is considering the following projects: Project Beta IRR W .63 9.4 % X .76 10.5 Y 1.29 14.0 Z 1.40 17.1 The T-bill rate is 5.1 percent, and the expected return on the market is 12.1 percent. a. Which projects have a higher/lower expected return than the firm’s 12.1 percent cost of capital? b. Which projects should be accepted? c. Which projects will be incorrectly accepted/rejected or correctly accepted/rejected if the firm's overall cost of capital were used as a hurdle rate?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Project Beta IRR project's cost of equity

W .63 9.4% = 5.1% + (0.63 x 7%) = 9.51%

X .76 10.5% = 5.1% + (0.76 x 7%) = 10.42%

Y 1.29 14.0% = 5.1% + (1.29 x 7%) = 14.13%

Z 1.40 17.1% = 5.1% + (1.40 x 7%) = 14.9%

the company's cost of capital = 12%

a. Which projects have a higher/lower expected return than the firm’s 12.1 percent cost

of capital?  

higher expected return ⇒ projects Y and Z lower expected return ⇒ projects W and X

b. Which projects should be accepted?

accepted ⇒ projects X and Z (their IRR is higher than their Re) rejected ⇒ projects W and Y (their IRR is lower than their Re)

c. Which projects will be incorrectly accepted/rejected or correctly accepted/rejected if  the firm's overall cost of capital were used as a hurdle rate?

if the company uses its cost of capital, then it would incorrectly reject project W  and incorrectly accept project Y

At which stage of project management do you need to discuss and clarify doubts about the project with the client?
А. risk mitigation
B. project Initiation
C. project planning
D. project execution

Answers

Answer:

C. Project Initiation

Explanation:

You typically should sort out all questions and concerns about a project to a client before the actual work on the project begins. Project Initiation is sort of pre-planning: it is pitching an idea to a client.

Risk mitigation is esentially risk management, or fixing problems after they arise.

Project planning is the beginning of the project where you map out the path you'd take to execute the idea.

Project execution is the actual work that is done to complete the project.

b. $292.61 per unit
c. $761.20 per unit
d. $636.29 per unit

Answers

Answer:

the overhead cost per unit is $675.91

Explanation:

The computation of the overhead applied to each unit is as follows:

Labour related ($507,394 ÷ $10,700 × $7,200) $341,424

Product testing ($9,464 ÷ 800 × 300) $3,549

Order size ($501,205 ÷ $5,900 × $3,100) $263,345

Total overhead $608,318

Divided by Units 900

Overhead cost per unit $675.91

hence, the overhead cost per unit is $675.91

According to the Kinked Demand Curve Model, If one firm operating in an oligopoly raises its price and other firms do not do so, A. the sales of the firm with the higher price will decline slightly. B. the egos of all the top executives will eventually lead to cooperation at that higher price. C. the sales of the firm that increased its price will decline sharply. D. the firm with the increased price will have its higher profits sustained through cooperation.

Answers

Answer:

C. the sales of the firm that increased its price will decline sharply.

Explanation:

A kinked demand curve is basically a demand curve that changes direction at an specific point (generally the equilibrium price). When you are dealing with oligopolies, generally competing firms will match price cuts but they will not follow if instead the price increases.

If only one of the oligopolistic competitors increases their price while the others remain stable, sales volume will decrease. Kinked models are based on the assumption that oligopolies will compete focusing on factors other than price.

B. $148,100.
C. $267,800.
D. $45,500.
E. $183,750.

Answers

Answer:

Pretax profit= $148,100

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Management anticipates fixed costs of $74,200 and variable costs equal to 35% of sales.

Sales= $342,000

To calculate the pretax profit, we need to use the following formula:

Pretax profit= sales*contribution margin rate - fixed costs

Contribution margin rate= 1 - varaible cost rate

Contribution margin rate= 0.65

Pretax profit= 342,000*0.65 - 74,200

Pretax profit= $148,100

Expected return=(0.125 –0.05)/1.48 + 0.05

Expected return=0.075/1.48+0.05

Expected return=0.05068+0.05

Expected return=0.1007*100

Expected return=10.07%

Therefore the expected return on the market will be 10.07%

Why will the number of suppliers in the tourism industry decrease, and how will this consolidation of suppliers take place

Answers

Answer:

In the current negative economic climate, suppliers in the tourism industry are likely to consolidate because many small suppliers do not have enough revenue to continue operating, and in such situation, they can be easily absorbed by larger, more solvent competitors.

Besides, the industry had been consolidating in the years prior to the current crisis. For example, Airbnb, with its innovative business model and global reach, had made many small suppliers go out of business in several cities of the world.

Diamond and Turf Inc. is considering an investment in one of two machines. The sewing machine will increase productivity from sewing 130 baseballs per hour to sewing 234 per hour. The contribution margin per unit is $0.48 per baseball. Assume that any increased production of baseballs can be sold. The second machine is an automatic packing machine for the golf ball line. The packing machine will reduce packing labor cost. The labor cost saved is equivalent to $26 per hour. The sewing machine will cost $305,500, have an eight-year life, and will operate for 1,400 hours per year. The packing machine will cost $131,800, have an eight-year life, and will operate for 1,200 hours per year.

If Diamond and Turf has sufficient funds for only one of the machines and qualitative factors are equal between the two machines, in which machine should it invest?

Answers

Answer:

A) Sewing machine:

initial outlay = -$305,500

net cash flow per year = (234 baseballs per hour - 130 baseballs per hour) x 1,400 hours x $0.48 per baseball = $69,888

NPV = -$305,500 + ($69,888 x 4.968) = -$305,500 + $347,203.58 = $41,703.58

Packing machine:

initial outlay = -$131,800

net cash flow per year = 1,200 hours x $26 per hour = $31,200

NPV = -$131,800 + ($31,200 x 4.968) = -$131,800 + $155,001.60 = $23,201.60

B) PVI of sewing machine = $347,203.58 / $305,500 = 1.137

PVI of packing machine = $155,001.60 / $131,800 = 1.176

C) They should invest in the packing machine since its PVI is higher, meaning that it increases the company's value by a higher amount per dollar invested.

= $35 - $32 = $3

Investors break even will then be:

= Purchase price - Premium received

= $840 - $3

= $837

If the stock sells for $48 per share, what is your best estimate of the company's cost of equity? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

11.04%

Explanation:

Using CAMP

Cost of Equity= Risk Free rate +Beta *Market risk Premium

= 4.2% + 0.97 *7.2%

= 11.18%

Using Dividend Discount Model:

Cost of Equity = (D1 / P0)+g

g= Growth rate =5.2% =0.052

D1 = Current Dividend * (1+g) = 2.60 * (1 +0.052) = 2.7352

P0 = Current Price =$48

Hence Cost of Equity = (2.7352 /48) + 0.052

=0.10898

=10.90%

Average Cost of Equity = (11.18+ 10.9 )/ 2  = 11.04%

Why does the food that Teta Elzbieta buys for the family harm the children? From The Jungle by Upton Sinclair Why did crusaders wear red crosses on their clothing?as part of a pilgrimageto demonstrate chivalryas proof they were well armedto show their religious mission PLEASE HELP THIS IS FOR A GRADE Part of the pride of being an American comes from the fact that most people that want jobs have jobs. However, this is not always the case. Sometimes, as happened in 2008, the economy slows down, and jobs become harder to find or keep. Businesses make less money and so can keep fewer people employed. Those people who lost their jobs then have less money to spend. Because they have less money to spend, other businesses make less money, and then they, too, have to cut workers. In the United States, these cycles always end and the economy recovers, but it can take a while. People have to get creative about making money if they lose their jobs. Sometimes, they can use the skills they used at their old jobs to make money independently. For example, people dont buy many car stereos when the economy is bad. So, car stereo stores have to layoff some of their stereo installers. If an installer has a place to work, that person can install stereos without a store. Often, this person will charge less than the store where he or she used to work. Also, the installer will get to keep all of the money he or she charged. At the store where the installer used to work, the store would have made most of the money. During hard times, it is important to be open-minded. There are always ways to make money outside of a formal job, if a person is willing to do things he or she wouldnt normally do. A computer programmer, for example, might not be able to find work as a computer programmer. However, if the programmer is good with his or her hands, he or she may be able to find work in construction. Lawns never stop growing, and many aspects of life do not stop just because the economy has slowed down. A person who lost a job at a supermarket may be able to mow lawns for money, or do many other things. Most importantly, a person who loses a job must not give up. Ones attitude is very important in determining if he or she will be successful. A hopeful person is more likely to find a new job. Also, a hopeful person will be better able to keep trying new things. A hopeful person, too, can be patient. The jobs will come back. They always do.Which of these best describes the main idea of the passage? A. It is important for a person to get creative if he or she needs to find a new job. B. Sometimes, the economy drops, causing jobs to become hard to find or keep. C. When the economy slows, there are ways to be successful in employment. D.
