Suppose you win a small lottery and have the choice of two ways to be paid: You can accept the money in a lump sum or in a series of payments over time. If you pick the lump sum payout, you get $3,000 today. If you pick the payments over time payout, you get three payments: $1,000 today, $1,000 one year from today, and $1,000 two years from today.

At an interest rate of 6% per year, the winner would be better off accepting the ________ , since it has the greater present value.
At an interest rate of 9% per year, the winner would be better off accepting ________ , since it has the greater present value.

Years after you win the lottery, a friend in another country calls to ask your advice. By wild coincidence, she has just won another lottery with the same payout schemes. She must make a quick decision about whether to collect her money under the lump sum or the payments over time. What is the best advice to give your friend?

a. The lump sum is always better.
b. The payments over time are always better.
c. It will depend on the interest rate; advise her to get a calculator.
d. None of these answers is good advice.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Part 1:

At an interest rate of 6% per year, the winner would be better off accepting the lump sum, since it has the greater present value.

At an interest rate of 9% per year, the winner would be better off accepting  lump sum, since it has the greater

Part 2:

a. The lump sum is always better.

Explanation:

This question can be answered in two parts as follows:

Part 1: Decision to accept lump sum or series of payment

This can be deteermined using the present values of both forms of payments.

Present value of the lump sum = $3,000

Present values of the series of payment at 6% and 9%

Since the amount to receive is an equal amount of $1,000 annually, we use the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:

PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)

Where;

PV = Present value =?

P = Annual receipt payment = $1,000

r = Interest rate = as given

n = number of years = 3

Substitute the values into equation (1), we have:

PV of series of payment at 6% annual interest = $1,000 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 6%))^3) / 6%) = $2,673.01

PV of series of payment at 9% annual interest = $1,000 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 9%))^3) / 9%) = $2,531.29

Therefore, we have:

At an interest rate of 6% per year, the winner would be better off accepting the lump sum, since it has the greater present value.

At an interest rate of 9% per year, the winner would be better off accepting  lump sum, since it has the greater

Part 2: Advising a friend

a. The lump sum is always better.

This is because the idea of a present value is that the worth of an amount of money today is more than the worth of the same amount in the future.

From part 1 above, future series of payment have to bee discouted at 6% and 9% and the present values are less than the lump sum using both interest rates. In addition, the higher the interest rate, the lower the present value.

Therefore, the lump sum is always better.

Answers

Answer:

A. Profit sharing of Net income for both the Kate Deleo and Joe Desmond will be same because there is no agreement concerning the distribution of net income.  

B. both partners will get 46000 each.

C. 10000 will be distributed to both the partners.

D.

60% of 22000 = 13200 paid to Deleo

40% of 22000 = 8800 paid to Desmond

Explanation:

Following are the independent assumptions

A. There is no agreement concerning the distribution of net income.

B. Each partner is to receive 10% on their original investment, and the remainder divided equally.

C. DeLeo and Desmond are to receive a salary allowance of $35,000 and $45,000 respectively, and the remainder divided equally.

D. Each partner is to receive 10% on their original investment, DeLeo and Desmond are to receive a salary allowance of $30,000 and $40,000 respectively, and the remainder divided as follows: 60% to DeLeo and 40% to Desmond.

Solution:

A. Profit sharing of Net income for both the Kate Deleo and Joe Desmond will be same because there is no agreement concerning the distribution of net income.  

B.

Kate Deleo Invested = 50,000

Desmond Invested = 30,000

End of Fiscal Year Net Income = 100,000

10% of Kate Investment = 50,000 x 10% = 5000

10% of Desmond Investment = 30,000 x 10% = 3000

Total investment 10% = 8000

So.

Net Income = 100000 - 8000 = 92000

Divide this 92000 in 2 = 96000/2 = 46000

So, Remaining net income is = 46000 each.

Hence, both partners will get 46000 each.  

C.

Salary allowance for Kate Deleo = 35000

Salary allowance for Desmond = 45000

Total Salary Allowance = 80000

Net income at the end of fiscal year = 100000

So, subtract the Total Salary Allowance from 100000 and divide the answer into 2.

Remaining = 100000-80000 = 20000

Remaining amount = 20000/2 = 10000

So,

10000 will be distributed to both the partners.

D.

Kate Deleo Invested = 50,000

Desmond Invested = 30,000

End of Fiscal Year Net Income = 100,000

10% of Kate Investment = 50,000 x 10% = 5000

10% of Desmond Investment = 30,000 x 10% = 3000

Total investment 10% = 8000

Salary allowance for Kate Deleo = 30000

Salary allowance for Desmond = 40000

Total Salary Allowance = 70000

Net Income at the end of fiscal year = 100000

Subtract 8000 and 70000 from the net income.

100000-70000-8000 = 22000

Now, Deleo will get 60% of 22000

and Desmond will get 40% of 22000

60% of 22000 = 13200 paid to Deleo

40% of 22000 = 8800 paid to Desmond

is committed to training new employees. assuming the company uses the incremental learning curve method, what is the total labor cost for 4 jobs

Answers

Answer:

$19,500

Explanation:

The complete question is: "Each time the Company hires a new employee, it must wait for some period of time before the employee can meet production standards. New employees are paid $150 per hour. Management is unsure of the learning curve in its operation, but it knows the first job by a new employee takes 40 hours and the second and third job take 32 and 28 hours respectively. Assume all jobs to be equal in size. Assuming that the company uses the incremental learning curve method, the total labor cost for 4 units will be closest to?"

The first job takes 40 hours

The next job takes 32 hours.

So, the total hours for first 2 jobs = 40 hours+ 32 hours = 72 hours

Average hours for first 2 jobs = 72 hours / 2 = 36 hours. Learning curve percentage = 36 hours / 40 hours = 0.9 = 90%

So, the average for 4 jobs (double of 2 jobs) shall be 36*90% = 32.40 hours. Hence, Total hours for 4 jobs = 32.40 hours * 4 = 129.60 hours ≅ 130 hours. So, the total labor cost for 4 jobs = 130 hours * $150 per hours = $19,500

= $22,000

b. Beginning work-in-process:

= $8,000

C. Ending work-in-process:

= $10,000

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Total manufacturing cost incurred during the month was $100,000

Factory overhead = $20,000

Direct labor = $50,000 ($20,000/40%)

Cost of goods manufactured was $90,000

Ending work-in-process = $10,000 ($100,000 - $90,000)

Beginning work-in-process = $8,000 ($10,000 * 80%)

Direct materials = $22,000 ($100,000 - $8,000 - $20,000 - $50,000)

Beginning work-in-process     $8,000

Factory overhead                    20,000

Liquidity is a measure of how easily an asset can be converted into cash.

In order of most liquid to least, the above are:

1. A $10 Bill

This is already cash so is already as liquid as it will every get.

2. The funds in a savings account.

This can simply be withdrawn from the bank which will then give the customer cash so it is very liquid.

3. A share in a publicly-traded company.

This share would have to be sold first before cash is realized. The share is to a publicly traded company however so this will not be too difficult so this asset is adequately liquid.

4. Your car.

This would need to be sold first and finding a buyer might not be too easy so it is the least liquid of the bunch.

Metallica Bearings, Inc., is a young start-up company. No dividends will be paid on the stock over the next 11 years because the firm needs to plow back its earnings to fuel growth. The company will pay a $6 per share dividend in 12 years and will increase the dividend by 5 percent per year thereafter. Required:If the required return on this stock is 12 percent, what is the current share price

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "$26".

Explanation:

[tex]\to growth \ rate =5\% \\\\\to required \ rate =12 \%\\\\\to Dividend = \$ 6 \ per \ share \\\\\to share \ price = \frac{1}{(1+0.12)^{11}}\times [\frac{6(1+0.05)}{0.12-0.05}][/tex]

                     [tex]= \frac{1}{(1.12)^{11}}\times [\frac{6(1.05)}{0.07}]\\\\= \frac{1}{3.47854999} \times [\frac{6(1.05)}{0.07}]\\\\= 0.287476104 \times [\frac{6.3}{0.07}]\\\\= 0.287476104 \times 90\\\\=25.8728494\\\\=26[/tex]

A consultant predicts that there is a 25 percent chance of earning $500,000 and a 75 percent chance of earning $100,000. The expected profit is $200,000. The standard deviation is Group of answer choices $120,000. $160,000. $165,699. $173,205.

Answers

Answer:

$173,205

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows:

Given data:

Earning (X1) = $500,000

Chances of X1 (Y1) = 25%

Earning (X2) = $100,000

Chances of X2 (Y2) = 75%

Expected Profit (Z) = $200,000

Formula for solving the problem are as follows:

Standard deviation = [ (X1 - Z)^2 × Y1 + (X2 - Z)^2 × Y2 ]^1/2

By putting the value in the formula, we get

Standard deviation = [ ($500,000 - $200000)^2 × 0.25 + ($100,000 - $200,000)^2 × 0.75 ]^1/2

= [ $22,500,000,000 + $7,500,000,000 ]^1/2

= ($30,000,000,000)^1/2

= $173,205.08 or $173,205

Hence, $173,205 is the correct answer.
