Answer:
c. Reject the project because the NPV is negative $120,921
Explanation:
As we know that the depreciation is a non-cash expense so here we need to add the depreciation expense again
Now the cash inflow would be $100,000 each year i.e. for 5 years
And, the initial investment is $500,000
Now we have to use the formula of NPV in an excel by using the NPV function
=NPV(rate,Year1 to Year5 cashflows)-Year0 cashflow
=NPV(10%,Year1 to Year5 cashflows)-500000
=-120,921
So as we can see that the npv comes in negative so the project should be rejected
Therefore the correct option is c.
You receive results from the team engagement survey. According to the survey, your team members feel that the feedback they provide to management is not being taken into consideration quickly enough. Assuming all options are possible, what would you be most and least likely to do?
Answer: Most: Discuss the issue with your team. Ask team members for suggestions on how to better incorporate their
Least: Talk to your peers who received similar feedback and brainstorm together on how to better engage the team.
Explanation:
You probably wish you could get more input from your employees if you're like most managers. Quality feedback will help all of you work together, improve your style of leadership, and make sure you catch problems before they become big issues.
While the members of your team must be the ones to come up with the ideas, there are many things you can do to make it better and more productive to produce them.
Your methodology offers an example.
A stock has an expected return of 15.1 percent, the risk-free rate is 5.95 percent, and the market risk premium is 7.8 percent. Required: What must the beta of this stock be
Answer:
1.17%
Explanation:
Expected return is 15.1 %
Risk free rate is 5.95 %
Market risk premium is 7.8%
Therefore the beta can be calculated as follows
Expected return= risk free rate + (beta×market risk premium)
15.1%= 5.95% + (beta × 7.8%)
15.1%-5.95%= 7.8% beta
9.15%= 7.8% beta
beta= 9.15%/7.8%
beta= 1.17%
What is the term used to describe the reduction of the balance owed on a loan with each payment made over a period of time?
a. a buy-down.
b. shared-appreciation.
c. prepaid interest.
d. amortization.
e. a rate cap.
Answer:
The term used to describe the reduction of the balance owed on a loan with each payment made over a period of time is:
d. amortization.
Explanation:
Amortization of a loan is the gradual reduction of the balance owed on a loan because payments are being made over a period of time. Each payment is, therefore, a reduction of the borrowed fund. This gradual reduction through periodic payments is called amortization of the borrowed fund. Loan amortization, therefore, implies the spreading out of the loan payments over time. It is not the same as asset amortization, which is a kind of depreciation.

The text specifies three people-oriented guidelines that can raise the quality of discussions: rephrasing ideas already expressed, bringing all members into active participation, and stimulating further thought by members. To get group members to think even further, Finance Director Debenditti mentions that she also asks ______.
Question Completion with Options:
A. Should we take a break and come back in an hour?
B."What if we proceed down this path and it fails?
C. Do we have at least three alternatives to consider?
D." How long do we have to rehash these alternatives before we can move on?
E. Why are you not participating in this discussion?"
Answer:
C. Do we have at least three alternatives to consider?
Explanation:
By asking for at least three other alternatives or solutions to the overriding problem under discussion, the Finance Director will be motivating her team members to think further on the solutions. She is broadening the groupthink so that all ramifications and considerations are brought to the fore before any conclusions can be reached. This is the most relevant question that elicits further discussions in any group.
The Manhattan Shoe Co. maintains an inventory of shoes in a warehouse they rent locally. The monthly demand for shoes is 930 units. The shoes cost $35 per pair and the replenishment order is placed when the inventory reaches a certain level. The cost of placing the replenishment order is estimated to be $21. The annual inventory holding cost for each pair of shoes is 28% of the cost of the item.
a. Based on the above data, calculate the EOQ for the All Star Shoe Co.
b. Based on the above data, calculate the corresponding total cost purchase lot (TCp).
c. How valid are the assumptions for the simple EOQ model?
Answer:
a) EOQ = √[(2 x S x D) / H]
S = order cost = $21D = annual demand = 930 x 12 = 11,160H = annual holding cost = $35 x 28% = $9.80EOQ = √[(2 x $21 x 11,160) / $9.80] = 218.7 ≈ 219 shoes
b) total ordering costs = (11,160 / 219) x $21 = $1,070.14
total holding costs = $9.80 x (219 / 2) = $1,073.10
total purchases = $35 x 11,160 = $390,600
total inventory costs = $392,743.24
c) The EOQ model faces two main problems:
first, it assumes that the demand is constant and can be predicted with 100% accuracy and that is not usually the case. Also, demand might be seasonal which makes the EOQ model useless. second, it assumes costs are constant and they are generally not, e.g. the price of shoes might change
Suppose a public good that is worth $1 billion is not produced by the market, and so the government provides it, but at a cost of $3 billion. This attempt to correct a market failure has:
Answer: resulted in a government failure since use of resources is now less efficient
Explanation:
Market failure is an economic situation when there is an inefficient distribution of goods and services which occurs in the free market. The main cause of market failure is disequilibrium as a result of distortion on the market.
When a public good that is worth $1 billion is not produced by the market, and so the government provides it, but at a cost of $3 billion, this attempt to correct a market failure has resulted in a government failure since use of resources is now less efficient. This is because the cost of the public good is more than its worth. This signifies wastage and results in government failure.
Company is a popular car-wash operation that measures its activity in terms of number of cars washed. Last month, the budgeted level of activity was 1,240 cars washed and the actual level of activity was 1,230 cars washed. The cost formula for the washing expenses is $4.80 per car washed plus $26,000 per month. The actual washing expense was $25,000.
Required:
What was the spending variance for the washing expenses last month?
Answer: $6,904 favorable
Explanation:
Cost formula is $4.80 per car + $26,000.
1,230 cars were actually washed last month.
Budget for washing expense = (4.80 * 1,230) + 26,000
= $31,904
Actual washing expense = $25,000
Variance = Budgeted - Actual
= 31,904 - 25,000
= $6,904 favorable

Suppose a food pantry received a donation and allowed volunteers to vote on how the funds were to be spent. Three options were provided, with the donation only covering the cost of one project. The projects included improvements to the building, additional purchases of food, and purchasing a vehicle for food delivery. The majority of volunteers voted for purchasing a vehicle for food delivery with building improvements coming in second. Since only one project could be funded, what is the opportunity cost of the decision to purchase a vehicle
Answer:
improvements to the building,
Explanation:
Opportunity cost is the foregone advantage of not setting certain options in decision making. When a particular option is preferred over others, then benefit from the other options not selected are forfeited. The forfeited benefits represent the opportunity cost.
The value of opportunity cost is equated to the value of the next best alternative. Where there were more than two alternatives available, the next best alternative from the chosen option becomes the opportunity cost. In this case, improvement to the building was voted the second preferred option; hence it becomes the opportunity cost.
Assume new machines have a new cost-saving technology that is not in older machines. What characteristics is true of a perfectly competitive industry which is in the period of adjustment to this new technology?

Tweaking the Initial Assembly-Line Design From past experience, Toshihiro has found that the initial assembly-line design supplied by the engineers often needs to be tweaked. Consider the following questions that Toshihiro is considering: What is the daily capacity of the assembly line designed by the engineers
Answer:
259 units per day.
Explanation:
The line operates for 7.5 hours per day. Workstation 4 is the bottleneck in the initial line balance, limiting the cycle time to 1.73 minutes, so output is limited to 34.61 units/hours × 7.5 hours = 259 units per day.
Explain in your own words why in the short run a firm may continue to produce even at a loss provided the price is more than the average variable cost. Also, provide an example of when a firm might face this decision.
Answer: The firms are faced with two options, the first is covering variable cost, which they can consider in a short run, which they can pay some of their fixed cost. If they shut down completely they would pay all their fixed costs.
Explanation:
The firms are faced with two options, the first is covering variable cost, which they can consider in a short run, which they can pay some of their fixed cost. Alternatively, if they shut down completely they would pay all their fixed costs. As long as the operating cost is not much, they would keep working.
A resort hotel is planning to install a computerized inventory system to manage complementary guest items such as soap and shampoo. The daily demand for bars of soap appears to be distributed normally, with mean = 16 and standard deviation = 3. Assume there are 365 days considered for this inventory system. Once an order is placed, it takes seven days before delivery is made. The effort for the staff person to place an order is $10. The annual holding cost of a bar of soap is $0.05. The hotel is concerned about stock-outs of such a basic item and, thus, desires a 99.9% service level.
a. Recommend an order quantity and reorder point for this inventory system.
b. What is the total annual cost for this inventory system?
Answer:
a) safety stock = z-score x √lead time x standard deviation of demand
z-score for 99.9% = 3.29053
√lead time = √7 = 2.6458
standard deviation of demand = 3
safety stock = 3.29053 x 2.6458 x 3 = 26.12 ≈ 26 soaps
reorder point = lead time demand + safety stock = (7 x 16) + 26 = 138 soaps
EOQ = √[(2 x S x D) / H]
S = order cost = $10
D = annual demand = 16 x 365 = 5,840
H = $0.05
EOQ = √[(2 x $10 x 5,840) / $0.05] = 1,528.40 ≈ 1,528 soaps
b) total order costs per year = (5,840 / 1,528) x $10 = $38.22
total holding costs = (1,528 / 2) x $0.05 = $38.20
total annual ordering and holding costs = $76.42
A system of performance measures, including nonfinancial measures, used to assess company and division manager performance is: _________
a. Hurdle rate.
b. Return on investment.
c. Balanced scorecard.
d. Residual income.
e. Investment turnover.
Answer:
C. Balanced scorecard
Explanation:
Most company assesses the performance of its division manager through a non financial measurement. This process is called balanced scorecard. It measures how well these managers have performed overtime without any financial measurement.
This system enables a manager to give account of how well he or she has performed during the course of carrying out his or her duties.
Your company is considering the replacement of an old delivery van with a new one that is more efficient. The old van cost $40,000 when it was purchased 5 years ago. The old van is being depreciated using the simplified straight-line method over a useful life of 8 years. The old van could be sold today for $7,000. The new van has an invoice price of $80,000, and it will cost $6,000 to modify the van to carry the company's products. Cost savings from use of the new van are expected to be $28,000 per year for 5 years, at which time the van will be sold for its estimated salvage value of $23031. The new van will be depreciated using the simplified straight-line method over its 5-year useful life. The company's tax rate is 35%. Working capital is expected to increase by $5525 at the inception of the project, but this amount will be recaptured at the end of year five. What is the terminal cash flow, to the nearest dollar?
Answer:
$51,164
Explanation:
The project's terminal cash flow is basically the cash flow of the project's last year.
depreciable value = $80,000 + $6,000 - $23,031 = $62,969
depreciation expense per year = $62,969 / 5 = $12,593.80 per year
net cash flow year 5 = [(savings - depreciation expense) x (1 - tax rate)] + depreciation expense + salvage value + recovery of net working capital = [($28,000 - $12,593.80) x (1 - 35%)] + $12,593.80 + $23,031 + $5,525 = $51,163.83 ≈ $51,164

The average age of engineering students at graduation is a little over 23 years. This means that the working career of most engineers is almost exactly 500 months. How much would an engineer need to save each month to become a millionaire by the end of her working career
Answer:
$450.18
Explanation:
Missing word "Assume a 6% interest rate, compounded monthly?"
FV = P/i*[(1+i)^n - 1]
FV = 1,000,000. P = ? , I = 6%/12 = 0.5%
1,000,000 = P/0.005[(1 + 0.005)^500 - 1)
1,000,000 = P/0.005[(1.005)^500 - 1)
5,000 = P[12.1068 - 1]
5,000 = P[11.1068]
P = 5,000/11.1068
P = 450.174667771
P = $450.18
Thus, the engineer needs to save $450.18 each month to become a millionaire by the end of her working career.
Would it be wise for a young company that is growing quickly but still hasn’t achieved profitability to attempt to issue bonds as a way to expand its working capital?
Answer:
It would not be wise for the young company to attempt to issue a bond as a way of expanding its capital. This is because, the company still has to be able to find a balance between its expenditure and income before it can think towards expansion. If this is not met, they might run into series of financial debts while trying to expand.

Suppose the real rate is 4.5 percent and the inflation rate is 6.1 percent. What rate would you expect to see on a Treasury bill
Answer:
10.87%
Explanation:
real rate of return = [(1 + nominal rate of return) / (1 + inflation rate)] - 1
real rate of return = 4.5%inflation rate = 6.1%1 + 4.5% = [(1 + nominal rate of return) / (1 + 6.1%)]
1.045 x 1.061 = 1 + nominal rate of return
1.108745 = 1 + nominal rate of return
0.108745 = nominal rate of return
