Answer:

Total Cost of ownership

Post ownership cost

Explanation:

Total cost of Ownership is the the sum of all the amount spent on an item,which includes the cost of purchase,servicing,repair, disposal etc. It is a management tool adopted by marketers and financial analyst to help determine the total costs associated with an item.

Post ownership cost is the total amount involved in disposal of an item,it also include the salvage costs of the item and more recently some other cost like environment costs, liability cost etc.

When the company takes back the panel it will reduce both of Total cost of ownership and Post ownership cost.

Theo wants to have $40,000 for a down payment on a house five years from now. He can either deposit one lump sum today or he can
juin [17]

Answer:

$1932.37

Explanation:

To find out how much additional money he must deposit if he waits for 1 year rather than making a deposit today we need to find the difference:

Difference = Value after 1 year - Present value

We first convert the interest rate percentage by dividing interest rate value by 100

Present Value = $40 000 / (1 + 0.035)5 = $7729.47

Value after 1 year = $40 000 / (1 + 0.035)4 = $9661.81

Difference = $9661.81 - $7729.47 = $1932.37

Upton Umbrellas has a cost of equity of 11.6 percent, the YTM on the company's bonds is 6.2 percent, and the tax rate is 40 perc
matrenka [14]

Answer:

WACC = 9.86%

so correct option is d. 9.86%

Explanation:

given data

cost of equity = 11.6 percent

bonds = 6.2 percent

bonds sell = 103.2 percent

debt book value = $408,000

total assets book value= $952,000

market to book ratio = 2.74 times

to find out

what is the company's WACC

solution

we get here first Total book value of equity that is express as

Total book value of equity = Total assets book value - Total debt book value   .................1

Total book value of equity  = 952000 - 408000

Total book value of equity = $544000

and here market to book ratio  is

market to book ratio  = \frac{market\ value}{book\ value}

so market value of equity = (2.74 × 544000) = $1490560

and  

After tax cost of debt = 6.2 (1 - tax rate)

After tax cost of debt = 6.2 (1 - 0.4)

After tax cost of debt = 3.72%

and

Market value of Debt = 408000 × 103.2%  

Market value of Debt   = $421056

so

Total market value = $1490560 + $421056

Total market value is =$1911616

and  

WACC will be

WACC = Respective costs × Respective weights

WACC =  \frac{1490560}{1911616}11.6 + 3.72\frac{421056}{1911616}

WACC = 9.86%

so correct option is d. 9.86%

Hamilton Company uses a periodic inventory system. At the end of the annual accounting period, December 31 of the current year,
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Inventory, December 31= 1,960 units at $ 6

For the current year:

Purchase, March 21= 6,200 units at  $5

Purchase, August 1= 4,020 units at  $3

Inventory, December 31, current year 2,980 units

We need to determine the cost of inventory using the following methods:

LIFO (last-in, first-out)

Inventory= 1,960*6 + 1,020*5= $16,860

FIFO (first-in, first-out)

Inventory= 2,980*3= $8,940

Weighted Average:

Average cost= (6 + 5 + 3)/3= 4.67

Inventory= 2,980*4.67= $13,916.6

ad-work [718]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Risk neutral probability is given by

e rt − D / U-D

U=1.1

D=0.9

R=0.12

T=3/12

π u = e∧ 0.12 ∗ 3 / 12 − 0.9 /1.1 − 0.9

 =0.652

π d = 1− 0.652 = 0.348

The values of american and european options at each node is given in the following table.

                                    0.652  

                                                                                                    0  

                                                                0.81   48.4  

                                                                0.652    

                                                                0.81    

American option value     2.54         44    

probability                    0.652/0.3478'  

Option value                     2.12        2.4  

Futures price                        40           6      39.6  

                                                               0.3478    

                                                               4.76    

                                                                  36    

                                                                                           0.3478  

                                                                                           9.6  

                                                                                          32.4  

Time period                         0      3           6

the value at up node at 3 months is given by = ( 0.652∗ 0 ) + ( 0.3478 ∗ 2.4 )/e ∧0.12 ∗ 3 / 12 = 0.81

Hence, value of european put option =$2.12

Value of American put option = 2.54

John's debit card was stolen on Wednesday and used to purchase $700 worth of merchandise. John notified his financial institutio
Verizon [17]

Answer:

The liability of John is $50.

Explanation:

When the ATM, credit, or debit cards of a customer are stolen or lost, both the Fair Credit Billing Act (FCBA) and the Electronic Fund Transfer Act (EFTA) come into action to give protection to the customer.

Specifically, if the credit or debit card is stolen or lost, the FCBA provides that maximum amount of liability that the customer will bear for any unauthorized use is $50.

The EFTA provides that if the stolen card is reported within 2 business days, the maximum liability for any authorised transaction is $50.

Therefore, since John notified his financial institution on Thursday which is still within 2 business days, his liability is still $50 based on the provisions of the EFTA and also the FCBA.
