Merger Gains. Acquiring Corp. is considering a takeover of Takeover Target Inc. Acquiring has 10 million shares outstanding, which sell for $40 each. Takeover Target has 5 million shares outstanding, which sell for $20 each. If the merger gains are estimated at $25 million, what is the highest price per share that Acquiring should be willing to pay to Takeover Target shareholders
Answer: $25 per share
Explanation:
Find the extra amount that would have to be paid on Takeover Target stock to enable a gain of $25 million.
= 25,000,000/ 5,000,000 shares

The Lechwe Company's December 31 pre-reconciliation cash balance on its books was $93,000. As of December 31, outstanding checks total $45,200 and deposits in transit total $30,600. Assuming there are no other reconciling items, what was the December 31 cash balance on Lechwe's bank statement
Answer:
$107,600
Explanation:
The cash balance on Lechwe' bank would be calculated as;
Cash balance = Corrected cash book balance + Outstanding cheques - Deposit in transit
Given that;
Corrected cash book balance = $93,000
Outstanding cheques = $45,200
Deposit in transit = $30,600
= $93,000 + $45,200 - $30,600
= $107,600
Therefore, the December 31 cash balance on Lechwe's bank statement is $107,600
Six-month call options with strike prices of $35 and $40 cost $6 and $4, respectively. What is the maximum gain when a bull spread is created by trading a total of 200 options
Answer:
$300
Explanation:
Calculation for What is the maximum gain when a bull spread is created by trading a total of 200 options
First step is to calculate the cost amount
Cost =6×100−4×100
Cost=$200
Second step maximum payoff of a stock price that is greater than $40 will be $500
Hence,
Maximum gain=$ 500 −$200
Maximum gain = $300
Therefore the maximum gain when a bull spread is created by trading a total of 200 options will be $300
During periods of bad weather, as compared with periods of clear weather, how many additional gallons of fuel on average should FreeEx expect its planes to consume because of airport congestion?
Answer:
the question is incomplete:
arrival rate = 20 per hourlanding rate with good weather = 60 per hourlanding rate with bad weather = 30 per hourλ = 20
μ₀ = 30
μ₁ = 60
Ls for good weather = 20 / (60 - 20) = 20/40 = 0.5
Ls for bad weather = 20 / (30 - 20) = 20/10 = 2
Ws for good weather = 60 / 40 = 1.5
Ws for bad weather = 60 / 10 = 6
Wg for good weather = 1.5 - (60 / 60) = 1.5 - 1 = 0.5
Wg for bad weather = 6 - (60 / 30) = 6 - 2 = 4
Fuel consumed due to slack:
good weather = Ws x λ = 1.5 x 20 = 30 gallons
bad weather = Ws x λ = 6 x 20 = 120 gallons
So each plane should expect to consume 120 - 30 = 90 additional gallons of fuel due to bad weather

$180,000 * 50% = $90,000
$280,000 * 50% = $140,000
$230,000
b) Lowland's contingent liability to ABC Company is the liability that may occur depending on the outcome of the lawsuit, which is in itself an uncertain future event. A contingent liability is recorded if the contingency is likely or probable, already established by Lowland's legal counsel, and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated.
Fontaine and Monroe are forming a partnership. Fontaine invests a building that has a market value of $356,000; the partnership assumes responsibility for a $128,000 note secured by a mortgage on the property. Monroe invests $103,000 in cash and equipment that has a market value of $78,000. For the partnership, the amounts recorded for the building and for Fontaine's Capital account are:_______.
a. Building $356,000; Fontaine, Capital $309,000.
b. Building $356,000; Fontaine, Capital $356,000.
c. Building $228,000; Fontaine, Capital $128,000.
d. Building $228,000; Fontaine, Capital $228,000.
e. Building $356,000; Fontaine, Capital $228,000.
Answer: e. Building $356,000; Fontaine, Capital $228,000.
Explanation:
The company would record the building which Fontaine brought in at its Market value which is $356,000.
However, because the partnership assumes responsibility for a $128,000 note secured by a mortgage on the property, this cannot be counted as a capital contribution from Fontaine so this will be removed from their capital contribution;
= 356,000 - 128,000
= $228,000
Use the following data to determine the total dollar amount of assets to be classified as property, plant, and equipment. Sheffield Corp. Balance Sheet December 31, 2022 Cash and cash equivalents $71500 Accounts payable $127500 Accounts receivable 93500 Salaries and wages payable 10000 Inventory 146000 Bonds payable 177500 Prepaid insurance 83000 Total liabilities $315000 Stock Investments 176000 Land 191500 Buildings $226500 Common stock $216500 Less: Accumulated depreciation (52500) 174000 Retained earnings 516000 Trademarks 112000 Total stockholders' equity $732500 Total assets $1047500 Total liabilities and stockholders' equity $1047500
Answer:
The total dollar amount of assets to be classified as property, plant, and equipment is $365,500.
Explanation:
In accounting, property, plant, and equipment are simply the fixed assets of an organization.
From the question, only Land and Buildings can be classified as property, plant, and equipment and their total dollar amount can be calculated based on the information from the question as follows:
Land = $191500
Buildings = $226500
Accumulated depreciation on Buildings = $52500
Buildings net book value = Buildings - Accumulated depreciation on Buildings = $226500 - $52500 = $174000
Therefore, we have:
Total dollar amount of property, plant, and equipment = Land + Buildings net book value = $191500 + $174000 = $365,500
Therefore, the total dollar amount of assets to be classified as property, plant, and equipment is $365,500.
1.Enrique runs a flower stall in the local shopping mall. The stall rents for $1,600 a month. Enrique buys the flowers at $2 a bunch and sells them for $3 a bunch. He'll be open seven days a week, eight hours a day, and plans to sell 100 bunches of flowers a day. He's hired Rosita to work three hours each of the five school days and eight hours each day on Saturday and Sunday. Enrique pays Rosita $6 an hour. He works at the stall whenever Rosita is not working. If Enrique didn't work at the flower stall, he'd make $10 an hour as a cook. How much accounting profit and how much economic profit does Enrique make a week
Answer:
Enrique
a) Accounting profit = $114
b) Economic profit (loss) = ($136)
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Monthly Rent = $1,600
Cost price of flowers = $2 per bunch
Selling price of flowers = $3 per bunch
Operations are for 7 days (8 hours daily) = 56 hours
Quantity of flowers sold per day = 100 bunches
Quantity of flowers sold per week = 700 (100 * 7)
Employee hours = 5 * 3 + 2 * 8 = 31 hours
Hours worked by Enrique = 25 (56 - 31)
Employee wages = $186 ($6 * 31)
Opportunity cost: Enrique = 25 * $10 = $250 per week
Accounting profit:
Sales revenue ($3 * 700) = $2,100
Cost of sales ($2 * 700) = 1,400
Gross profit $700
Expenses:
Rent ($1,600/4) = 400
Employee wages = 186 586
Accounting profit = $114
Economic profit:
Accounting profit $114
Opportunity cost 250
Economic loss = $136

Real per capita gross domestic product (GDP) is higher in the United States than in Bangladesh. Based on that, we could predict the United States to have a higher rate of ________ and a lower rate of ________.
Answer:
b. adult literacy; infant mortality
Explanation:
Multiple choice "life expectancy; internet usage ; adult literacy; infant mortality ; infant mortality; adult literacy ; access to clean water; life expectancy"
Higher real GDP per capita would imply higher literacy rate and at the same time lower infant mortality as citizens would invest more in health and education. All the other options are wrong as higher real GDP per capita cannot lead to lower life expectancy or literacy rate.
Miller Fruit wants to expand its citrus grove operations. The firm estimates that it needs $8.6 million to buy land and establish its operations. Currently, the firm has 540,000 shares of stock outstanding at a market price per share of $47.50. If the firm decides to raise the needed capital through a rights offering, one right will be issued for each share of stock. The subscription price will be set at $40 a share. How many rights will a shareholder need to purchase one new share of stock in this offering
Answer: 2.51
Explanation:
First, we calculate the number of shares that will be issued in order to raise $8.6 million at $40 a share. This will be:
= $8.6 million / $40
= 215,000
Since the firm currently has 540,000 shares of stock outstanding, the number of rights that a shareholder will need to purchase one new share of stock in this offering will be:
= 540,000 / 215,000
= 2.51

For a real interest rate of 12% per year and an inflation rate of 7% per year, the market interest rate per year is closest to:______
a. 4.7%
b. 7%
c. 12%
d. 19.8%

You want to construct a portfolio containing equal amounts of U.S. Treasury bills, stock A, and stock B. If the beta of the stock A is 1.46 and the beta of the portfolio is 0.93, what does the beta of stock B have to be
Answer:
beta of stock B = 1.33
Explanation:
the beta of treasury bills is 0
the beta of stock A = 1.46
the beta of stock B = ?
the portfolio contains equal amounts of each investment and its overall beta is 0.93
0.93 = (0 x 1/3) + (1.46 x 1/3) + (B x 1/3)
0.93 = 0 + 0.4867 + 0.333B
0.93 = 0.4867 + 0.333B
0.4433 = 0.333B
B = 0.4433 / 0.333 = 1.33

Impa Inc. applies overhead based upon machine hours. At the beginning of 2018, Impa estimated overhead to be $400,000, machine hours to be 25,000, and direct labor hours to be 40,000. During April, Impa has 3,000 direct labor hours and 4,500 machine hours. What is the amount of overhead applied for April?
Solution :
It is given that,
Impa Inc. estimated an overhead of $ 400,00 machine hours to be 25,000 and that of direct labor hours of 40,000.
During the month of April, Impa Inc. has a 3000 direct labor hours as well as 4500 machine hours.
Therefore, the overhead applied for the month of April is
[tex]$\frac{400,000}{25,000} $[/tex] machine hours = $ 16 per machine hour
The actual machine hours in April = 4500 machine hours
Therefore the overhead applied = 4500 x 16
= $ 72,000
Serendipity Inc. is re-evaluating its debt level. Its current capital structure consists of 80% debt and 20% common equity, its beta is 1.60, and its tax rate is 25%. However, the CFO thinks the company has too much debt, and he is considering moving to a capital structure with 40% debt and 60% equity. The risk-free rate is 5.0% and the market risk premium is 6.0%. By how much would the capital structure shift change the firm's cost of equity
Answer:
-6.00%
Explanation:
The computation of the change in the capital structure is as follows;
Current Capital Structure:
Given that
Weight of Debt = 80%
Weight of Equity = 20%
Levered Beta = 1.60
Now
Debt-Equity Ratio = Weight of Debt ÷ Weight of Equity
= 0.80 ÷ 0.20
= 4.00
Unlevered Beta = Levered Beta ÷ [1 + (1 - Tax Rate) × Debt-Equity Ratio]
= 1.60 ÷ [1 + (1 - 0.25) × 4.00]
= 1.60 ÷ 4.00
= 0.40
Now
Cost of Equity = Risk-free Rate + Levered Beta × Market Risk Premium
= 5.00% + 1.60 × 6.00%
= 14.60%
New Capital Structure:
Weight of Debt = 40%
Weight of Equity = 60%
Now
Debt-Equity Ratio = Weight of Debt ÷ Weight of Equity
= 0.40 ÷ 0.60
= 0.6667
Unlevered Beta = 0.40
Levered Beta = Unlevered Beta × [1 + (1 - Tax Rate) × Debt-Equity Ratio]
= 0.40 × [1 + (1 - 0.25) × 0.6667]
= 0.40 × 1.50
= 0.60
Cost of Equity = Risk-free Rate + Levered Beta × Market Risk Premium
= 5.00% + 0.60 × 6.00%
= 8.60%
Now
Change in Cost of Equity = Cost of Equity under New Capital Structure - Cost of Equity under Current Capital Structure
= 8.60% - 14.60%
= -6.00%

Machinery acquired new on January 1 at a cost of $80,000 was estimated to have a useful life of 10 years and a residual salvage value of $20,000. Straight-line depreciation was used. On January 1, following six full years of use of the machinery, management decided that the estimate of useful life had been too long and that the machinery would have to be retired after three years, that is, at the end of the ninth year of service. Under this revised estimate, the depreciation expense for the seventh year of use would be:
Answer:
$8,000
Explanation:
Calculation for what the depreciation expense for the seventh year of use would be
First step is to calculate the Book value at the end of Year 6
Machinery cost $80,000
Less: Salvage value ($20,000)
Depreciable cost $60,000
($80,000-$20,000)
Divide by useful life 10 years
Annual Depreciation $6,000
($60,000÷10 years)
Accumulated Depreciation for 6 years $36,000
($6,000*6 years)
Book value at the end of Year 6 $44,000 ($80,000-$36,000)
Now let calculate the Depreciation expense for the seventh year of use
