A 25-year maturity mortgage-backed bond is issued. The bond has a par value of $10,000 and promises to pay an 8-percent annual coupon. At issue, bond market investors require a 12-percent interest rate on the bond. Assume that 20 years after the bond is issued, bond market investors require a 15-percent interest rate on the bond. What is the market price of the bond
Answers
Answer:
Bond Price after 20 years = $7653.4914 rounded off to $7653.49
Explanation:
To calculate the quote/price of the bond today, which is the present value of the bond, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. As the bond is an annual bond, the annual coupon payment, number of periods and annual YTM will be,
Coupon Payment (C) = 10000 * 0.08 = $800
Total periods remaining (n) = 5
r or YTM = 0.15 or 15%
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
Bond Price = 800 * [( 1 - (1+0.15)^-5) / 0.15] + 10000 / (1+0.15)^5
Bond Price after 20 years = $7653.4914 rounded off to $7653.49

Explanation:
The average daily net transaction accounts balance of a local bank during the most recent reserve computation period is $325 million. The amount of average daily reserves at the Fed during the reserve maintenance period is $22.6 million and the average daily vault cash corresponding to the computation period is $4.3 million.
1. What is the average daily reserve balance required to be held by the bank during the maintenance period?
2. Is the bank in compliance with the reserve requirements?
3. What amount of reserves can be carried over to the next maintenance period either as excess or as shortfall?
4. If the local bank has an opportunity cost of 6 percent and deposits at the Fed pay 0.5 percent, what is the effect on the income statement from this reserve period?
Answers
Answer:
a) $19.159 million
b) Yes, bank compliance with reserve requirements.
c) 0.938 million
d) $2536.11 million
Explanation:
The amount that is being put apart from the profit for a suitable and relevant purpose is known as Reserve. It is used to usually offset debts and the purchase of fixed assets.
Reserve requirement can be determined as follows:
Daily avg reserve required= Daily avg. net transaction accounts × reserve %
= (0% × $16 million) +(($122.3 million - $16 million)
= 0 + $3.189 million + $20.27 million
= $23.459 million
∴
The avg. daily reserve for the maintenance period = Daily avg reserve required - Avg daily balance of cash.
= ($23.459 -$4.3) million
= $19.159 million
b) SInce the amount of avg daily reserve in the bank($21.2 million) is higher than the required amount of $2.04 i.e. $(21.2 - 19.16)
Then, we can agree that:
Yes, bank compliance with reserve requirements.
c). For the next maintenance period, the reserve carried over = reserve bank required to maintain × highest percentage
= $23.459 million × 4%
= 0.938 million
d)
Since an amount of (2.04 - $0.938) million possess an opportunity cost & no earning at 6%;
Then, the effect of the loss is
[tex]\$1.102 \times 0.06 \times \dfrac{14}{365} \\ \\ =\$2536.11 \ million[/tex] from the reserver period.

Compute the cost of goods sold during July. d. Compute the work in process inventory at July 31. e. Compute the finished goods inventory at July 31.
Answers
Answer:
(a) $3,160
(b) $7,000
(c) $13,500
(d) $9,500
(e) $2,960
Explanation:
(a). Work in Process = Manufacturing cost of 103 in June + Manufacturing cost of 104 in June
Work in Process = $960 + $2,200 = $3,160
(B). Finished goods = Manufacturing cost of 101 in June + Manufacturing cost of 102 in June
Finished goods = $3,800 + $3,200 = $7,000
(C) Cost of goods sold during July = Manufacturing cost of 101 in June + Manufacturing cost of 102 in June + Manufacturing cost of 104 in June + Manufacturing cost of 104 in July
Cost of goods sold during July = $3,800 + $3,200 + $2,200 + $4,300 = $13,500
(D) Work in process inventory = Manufacturing cost of 105 in July + Manufacturing cost of 106 in July
= $6,200 + $3,300 = $9,500
(E) Finished goods inventory = Manufacturing cost of 103 in June + Manufacturing cost of 103 in July
Finished goods inventory = $960 + $2,000 = $2,960
Break-Even Sales and Sales to Realize Operating Income For the current year ending December 31, McAdams Industries expects fixed costs of $1,860,000, a unit variable cost of $105, and a unit selling price of $125. a. Compute the anticipated break-even sales (units). fill in the blank 1 units b. Compute the sales (units) required to realize operating income of $500,000. fill in the blank 2 units
Answers
Answer:
a.
Break even sales in units = 93000 Units
b.
Sales in units required for Target Income = 118000 units
Explanation:
a. Anticipated Break even sales in units
The break even in units is the number of units that a business must sell in order to for its total revenue to be equal to total costs and for it to break even. The break even in units is calculated as follows,
Break even in units = Fixed Costs / Contribution margin per unit
Where,
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
Break even sales in units = 1860000 / (125 - 105)
Break even sales in units = 93000 Units
b. Operating income
To calculate the number of units required to earn a certain income or profit, we simply use the break even equation and add the income or profit amount required in the fixed cost. Thus the sales in units required to earn an operating income of $500000 is,
Sales in units required for Target Income = (1860000 + 500000) / (125 - 105)
Sales in units required for Target Income = 118000 units

What was the amount of Bad Debt Expense reported in 2019
Answers
Answer: $23,040
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question and assuming the company recorded no write-offs or recoveries during 2019, the amount of Bad Debt Expense reported in 2019 will be the difference between the ending balance of the allowance account and the beginning balance of the allowance account. This will be:
= $126,400 - $103,360
= $23,040
Therefore, the correct answer is $23,040

Explanation:
Gary Radio Corporation is a subsidiary of Salem Companies. Gary makes car radios that it sells to retail outlets. It purchases speakers for the radios from outside suppliers for $56 each. Recently, Salem acquired the Hyden Speaker Corporation, which makes car radio speakers that it sells to manufacturers. Hyden produces and sells approximately 200,000 speakers per year, which represents 70 percent of its operating capacity. At the present volume of activity, each speaker costs $48 to produce. This cost consists of a $32 variable cost component and an $16 fixed cost component. Hyden sells the speakers for $60 each. The managers of Gary and Hyden have been asked to consider using Hyden's excess capacity to supply Gary with some of the speakers that it currently purchases from unrelated companies. Both managers are evaluated based on return on investment. Hyden's manager suggests that the speakers be supplied at a transfer price of $60 each (the current selling price). On the other hand, Gary's manager suggests a $56 transfer price, noting that this amount covers total cost and provides Hyden a healthy contribution margin.
a. What transfer price would you recommend?
b. Discuss the effect of the intercompany sales on each manager's return on investment.
c. Should Hyden be required to use more than excess capacity to provide speakers to Gary? In other words, should it sell to Gary some of the 200,000 units that it is currently selling to unrelated companies? Why or why not?
Answers
Answer:
Salem Companies
a. I recommend a transfer price of $56 per unit (in view of the excess capacity).
b. The intercompany sales at $56 per unit will increase Hyden's return on investment because it will use excess capacity to produce the required units while still selling to outside customers at $60 per unit. With regard to Gary's return on investment, there will be no change as this is the same price it buys from outside suppliers. However, if the price were to be $60 per unit, the return on investment will reduce while skyrocketing Hyden's.
c. Hyden can still sell some of the 200,000 units that it currently sells to unrelated companies at $56 if the outside demand is less than 200,000 units or if Gary will buy at $60 per unit.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Purchase price from outside suppliers = $56 each
Production units of Hyden = 200,000
Capacity of Hyden = 285,714
Unit cost at present volume of activity = $48
Variable cost = $32
Fixed cost = $16
Transfer price by Hyden at $60:
Profit per unit = $12 ($60 - $48)
Return on investment = 25% ($12/$48 * 100)
Transfer price at $56 using excess capacity:
Incremental profit per unit = $24 ($56 - $32)
Incremental return on investment = 75% ($24/$32 * 100)
Transfer price at $56 producing below capacity:
Profit per unit = $8 ($56 - $48)
Return on investment = 16.7% ($8/$48 * 100)
Petrus Framing's cost formula for its supplies cost is $1,890 per month plus $9 per frame. For the month of March, the company planned for activity of 629 frames, but the actual level of activity was 634 frames. The actual supplies cost for the month was $7,860. The activity variance for supplies cost in March would be closest to: Multiple Choice $309 F $309 U $45 F $45 U
Answers
Answer:
Activity variance= $310 unfavorable
Explanation:
To calculate the activity variance, we need to use the standard costs and planned activity:
Activity variance= standard cost*planned activity - actual costs
Activity variance= (1,890 + 9*629) - 7,860
Activity variance= 7,551 - 7,860
Activity variance= $310 unfavorable

The managerial accountant reported the following manufacturing costs and variable expense data: Flash ECard Manufacturing Manufacturing Costs and Variable Expense Report Flash Component Direct materials $810 Direct labor $160 Variable manufacturing overhead $140 Fixed manufacturing overhead (current production level) $185 Variable selling expenses (only incurred on sales to outside consumers) $136 If the highest acceptable transfer price is $700 in the market, what is the lowest acceptable inhouse price the Data Department should receive to produce the part inhouse at the Computer Department? "810"
Answers
Answer:
the lowest acceptable inhouse price the Data Department is $1,110
Explanation:
The computation of the lowest acceptable inhouse price the Data Department is shown below:
= Direct materials + direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead

Hence, the lowest acceptable inhouse price the Data Department is $1,110
The above formula should be applied for determining the lowest acceptable inhouse price is as follows:
Harold Reese must choose between two bonds: Bond X pays $82 annual interest and has a market value of $710. It has 10 years to maturity. Bond Z pays $88 annual interest and has a market value of $750. It has five years to maturity. Assume the par value of the bonds is $1,000.
a. Compute the current yield on both bonds.
b. Which bond should he select based on your answers to part a?
c. A drawback of current yield is that it does not consider the total life of the bond. For example, the approximate yield to maturity on Bond X is 13.44 percent. What is the approximate yield to maturity on Bond Z? The exact yield to maturity?
Answers
Answer:
a) For Bond X = 11.55%
For Bond Z = 11.73 %
b) Bond Z
c) Approximate YTM = 15.77%
Exact yield to maturity = 16.53 %
Explanation:
Bond X : pays $82 annual interest , market value = $710 and years to maturity =10
Bond Z: pays $88 annual interest, market value = $750 , Years to maturity= 5
par value of bonds = $1000
a) Current yield on both bonds
For Bond X : annual interest / market value = 82 / 710 = 11.55%
For Bond Z : Annual interest / market value = 88 / 750 = 11.73%
b) The Bond that should be selected = Bond Z
C) Calculate the approximate yield to maturity on Bond Z and exact yield to maturity
i) Yield to maturity on Bond Z
[C + (Par Value - Current Value) / n] / (Par Value + Current Value) / 2
where: C = 88 , par value = 1000, Current value = $750, n = 2
∴ YTM on Bond Z = 0.1577 = 15.77%
ii) Exact yield to maturity = 16.53 %

In the United States, banks keep the entire value of all customer deposits in the bank vault to meet customer withdrawals. FALSE.
Banks keep only a portion of the customer deposits in the bank vault. A small portion is kept with the Fed called the Reserve Requirement.
Banks typically loan out a portion of customer deposits. TRUE.
Banks only loan out the portion of customer deposits that they did not leave with the Fed.
Bank runs occur when many customers attempt to withdraw deposits from a bank at the same time and the bank is unable to pay all customer withdrawals. TRUE.
When too many people try to withdraw from a bank, the bank might not meet these obligations because they loaned out money to people and those people were not yet due to pay back. This is a bank run.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) protects bank depositors from bank failure. TRUE.
The fractional reserve banking system requires all banks to keep the total value of customer deposits in their vaults to prevent bank runs. FALSE.

Each unit should be produced in 48 minutes at a direct labor cost of $16 per hour. The company had the following detailed retails:
Actual production was 20,000 units using 14,600 pounds of direct materials at a total cost of $168,000 and required 11,000 direct labor hours at a total cost of $190,000.
What is the company cost variance related to direct labour
Answer:
Direct labour cost total Variance = $66,000 favorable
Explanation:
The direct labor cost total variance is the difference between standard labour cost of the actual production achieved and the actual labour cost.
The standard labour cost of labour per unit of output is not given. So, we work it out first
Standard labour cost per unit= 48/60× $16= 12.8 per unit
$
20,000 units should have cost (20,000× 12.8) 256,000
but did cost 190,000
Direct labour cost total Variance 66,000 favorable
Direct labour cost total Variance = $66,000 favorable
The Direct Labor cost variance is $66,000.
What is labor cost variance?It is the difference between the standard and actual labor cost required to produce goods or services.
Labor cost variance= Standard Cost of Labor – Actual Cost of Labor .
Given:
1 unit=3/4th pound of direct material at the rate $12/ pound
1 unit takes 48 minutes
Direct labor cost=$16/ hour
Actual production=20,000 units
Direct material required = 14,600 pounds
Total cost=$168,000
Required - direct labor hours=11,000 at total cost $190,000.
Standard labor cost per unit= time taken to complete 1 unit X hourly Rate of labor
= 48/60× $16= 12.8 per unit
Standard Cost of labor (20,000× 12.8) $256,000
Less-Actual Cost of labor (given) $190,000
Direct labor cost Variance $66,000
Therefore, the Labor cost variance is $66,000.

I know headquarters wants us to add that new product line," said Dell Havasi, manager of Billings Company’s Office Products Division. "But I want to see the numbers before I make any move. Our division’s return on investment (ROI) has led the company for three years, and I don’t want any letdown."
Billings Company is a decentralized wholesaler with five autonomous divisions. The divisions are evaluated on the basis of ROI, with year-end bonuses given to the divisional managers who have the highest ROIs. Operating results for the company’s Office Products Division for this year are given below:
Sales $10,000,000
Variable expenses 6,000,000
Contribution margin 4,000,000
Fixed expenses 3,200,000
Net operating income $800,000
Divisional operating assets $4,000,000
The company had an overall return on investment (ROI) of 15% last year (considering all divisions).The Office Products Division has an opportunity to add a new product line that would require an additional investment in operating assets of $1,000,000. The cost and revenue characteristics of the new product line per year would be:
Sales $2,000,000
Variable expenses 60% of sales
Fixed expenses $640,000
Requirement:
Compute the Office Products Division's ROI for the most recent year; also compute the ROI as it would appear if the new product line is added.
Answers
Answer:
1. 20.0%
2. 16.0%
Explanation:
1. Computation for the Office Products Division's ROI for the most recent year
Using this formula
ROI = Net operating income /Divisional average operating assets
Let plug in the formula
ROI= $800000/$4000000
ROI= 20.0%
Therefore the Office Products Division's ROI for the most recent year will be 20%
2. Computation for the ROI as it would appear if the new product line is added.
First step is to calculate the Net operating income using this formula
Net operating income = Sales - Variable expenses - Fixed expenses
Let plug in the formula
Net operating income= $2000000 - (60% x $2000000) - $640000
Net operating income= $160000
Now let compute the ROI
ROI = $160000/$1000000
ROI = 16.0%
Therefore the ROI as it would appear if the new product line is added is 16.0%
The fraction between the net revenue and the investment is called return on investment (ROI). A high ROI rate indicates investment profit above its generation value.
ROI can be calculated by:
[tex]\text{ROI} &= \dfrac{\text{Profit earned}}{\text{Cost of investment}}[/tex]
The Products Division's ROI will be 20% and ROI if the new product is added would be 16.0%.
1. Estimate for the Office Products Division's ROI for the most current time can be calculated as follow:
Using the formula:
[tex]\text{ROI} &= \dfrac{\text{Net operating income}}{\text{Divisional average operating assets}}[/tex]
[tex]\text{ROI} & = \dfrac{\$ 800000}{\$ 4000000}[/tex]
ROI= 20.0%
The Office Products Division's ROI for the most current time will be 20%.
2. Calculation for the ROI if the new product range is added.
The Net operating income can be calculated by using the formula:
[tex]\text{Net operating income} = \text{Sales} - \text{Variable\;expenses} - \text{Fixed expenses}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Net operating income} = \text{\$2000000} - \text{60\%} \times {\$2000000}} - \text{\$640000}[/tex]
Net operating income= $160000
Calculation of ROI:
[tex]\text{ROI} &= \dfrac{\$160000}{\$1000000}[/tex]
ROI = 16.0%
If the new product line is added then ROI will be 16.0%.

QUESTION ONE (1)
Unibic India: From Fastest Growing Niche Cookie Brand to a Challenger?
In 2007, Lighthouse Funds acquired a 25% stake in Unibic from Unibic Australia for Rs. 200 million. In 2010, Unibic Australia started making losses and wanted to withdraw from the Indian market. At that time, Unibic operated solely in the premium, high-margin cookies segment in India, with a share of around 8%. It had a market presence primarily in south India and was exporting to the Middle East and Hong Kong. It had strategic alliances to make cookies for various private players. However, it was not yet making profits and was cash- strapped...
Over the next few years, Unibic grew rapidly. Its growth was primarily fueled by the changes sweeping through the Indian biscuit industry, wherein glucose biscuits that had dominated the market, gradually lost out to cream biscuits and cookies. The reasons for the shift included rising disposable incomes leading to an increase in consumption of premium biscuits; a larger number of manufacturing facilities of premium biscuits; growing health awareness; innovation bringing in attractive new products; rising affordability of cookies; and increase in eye-catching packaging...
Over the years, Unibic regularly introduced fresh and unique flavors, ultimately producing over 30 variants of cookies. Its products could be broadly categorized into chocolate, butter, milk, savory, and health. The company considered its target market to be between the ages of 14 and 40. It continued its efforts at innovation and produced new products which would appeal to its target market...
In 2015, Unibic had used celebrity endorsement by signing on south Indian actor Shruti Hassan, for over a year. It stated that it wanted someone who was relevant and would give the brand a boost to get to the numbers it wanted in the South...
Unibic didn’t advertise much in print media; TV remained the company’s core focus and got the largest chunk of its advertising spend, followed by digital and OOH. Instead of following the traditional strategy of having a similar marketing campaign across markets, Unibic employed a unique strategy in each market, thereby playing to its strengths in each market while keeping in mind the market conditions and consumption patterns...
From 2019 onward, Unibic started feeling the heat of the economic slowdown in India. The Indian economic slowdown of 2019 led to a serious and continuing decline in the country’s real estate, automobile and construction sectors and in overall consumption demand. The second quarter (July- September) of the financial year (April 2019-March 2020) witnessed a drastic fall in the gross domestic product (GDP) growth rate to 4.5%. The main reasons attributed to the fall in the GDP growth rate were – contraction in manufacturing activity, weakened investments, and lower consumption demand.
As of 2020, Unibic had the largest wire cut cookie manufacturing plant in India. The plant had the capability to manufacture 100 tonnes of cookies each day, with five production lines. While it used 98% of its production capability to produce its own brand, the rest was used to manufacture for private label brands – six in India and 10 across the world. It had annual revenu7 es of Rs. 5 billion. It also exported its products to more than 21 countries including across Australia, North America, the UK, and Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and New Zealand. It derived 45% of its earnings from the south of India.

a) Explain three factors that had a negative impact on the financial performance of Unibic in its early years.
