A financial investor has an investment portfolio. A bond in her investment portfolio will mature next month and provide her $25,000 to reinvest. The choices for reinvestment have been narrowed to the following two options:Option 1: Reinvest in a foreign bond that will mature in one year. Thistransaction will entail a brokerage fee of $150. For simplicity, assume thatthe bond will provide interest over the one-year period of $2,450, $2,000, or $1,675 and that the probabilities of these occurrences are assessed to be 0.25, 0.45, and 0.30, respectively.Option 2: Reinvest in a $25,000 certificate with a savings and loan association.Assume that this certificate has an effective annual rate of 7.5%.Which form of reinvestment should the investor choose in order to maximize her expected financial gain?
National Chemical Company manufactures a chemical compound that is sold for $58 per gallon. A new variant of the chemical has been discovered, and if the basic compound were processed into the new variant, the selling price would be $90 per gallon. National expects the market for the new compound variant to be 8,500 gallons initially and determines that processing costs to refine the basic compound into the new variant would be $170,000.

Prominent Sdn Bhd produces furniture at several factories. Its Seberang Prai factoryproduces office chairs. Management aims to increase production in the coming year to 800units per month. Therefore, management is exploring two production strategies for thecoming year. The first strategy is to continue operations with the existing machine, MachineA, and the second strategy is to rent a new machine, Machine B, to produce the office chairs.The monthly rental of Machine B is RM14,000. Machine B takes half an hour to produce oneoffice chair. However, it requires a more skilled labour force with an hourly rate of RM30 perhour.Comparatively, continuing to use Machine A means that costs will remain the same. MachineA is 5 years old and is operating below capacity. The hourly labour rate is RM20 and thematerials required for each unit is RM30. Each office chair is assembled within an hour. Eachunit of the finished office chair is sold for RM120.The fixed monthly running costs of thefactory is…

Years ago, KR bought a parcel of land in Muntinlupa for only PhP65,000. He donated the land to his son, KO, in 2018 when the property had a fair market value of PhP75,000, and paid the corresponding donor's tax. KO, in turn, sold the property in 2019 to KA for PhP 6.5 million and paid the capital gains tax, documentary stamp tax, local transfer tax, and other fees and charges. KA, in turn, donated the land to 'Preliminary School' last August 30, 2021 to be used as the site for additional classrooms. No donor's tax was paid, because KA claimed that the donation was exempt from taxation. At the time of the donation to Preliminary School, the land had a fair market value of PhP 65 million. 1.1. Is KA liable for Donor's Tax? 1.2. How much in 'Deduction from Gross Income' may KA claim on account of the said donation?
Your company manufactures circuit boards and other electronic parts for various commercial products. Design changes in part of the product line, which are expected to increase sales, will require changes in the manufacturing operation. The cost basis of new equipment required is $220,000 (MACRS five-year property class). Increased annual revenues, in year zero dollars, are estimated to be $360,000. Increased annual expenses, in year zero dollars, are estimated to be $239,000. The estimated market value of equipment in actual dollars at the end of the six-year analysis period is $40,000. General price inflation is estimated at 4.9% per year; the total increase rate of annual revenues is 2.5%, and for annual expenses it is 5.6%; the after-tax MARR (in market terms) is 10% per year (im); and t = 39%. (Refer to Chapter 7 and Problem 8.7) a. Based on an after-tax, actual-dollar analysis, what is the maximum amount that your company can afford to spend on the total project (i.e., changing…
A contractor has 50 men of the same capacity. They can complete the work in 30 days, the working day being 8 hours, but the contract expires in 20 days. He decides to put 10 additional men.

A rough rule of thumb for the chemical industry is that OMR 1 of annual sales required OMR 2 of fixed capital investment. In a chemical processing plant where this rule applies, the total capital investment is OMR 3200000 and the working capital is 18% of the total capital investment. The annual net total product cost amounts to 1500000 OMR. If the income tax rates on gross earnings total 21%, determine the following: (a) Percent of total capital investment returned annually as gross earning. (b) Percent of total capital investment returned annually as net profit.
The management of First American Bank was concerned about the potential loss that might occur in the event of a physical catastrophe such as a power failure or a fire. The bank estimated that the loss from one of these incidents could be as much as $100 million, including losses due to interrupted service and customer relations. One project the bank is considering is the installation of an emergency power generator at its operations headquarters. The cost of the emergency generator is $800,000, and if it is installed, no losses from this type of incident will be incurred. However, if the generator is not installed, there is a 10% chance that a power outage will occur during the next year. If there is an outage, there is a .05 probability that the resulting losses will be very large, or approximately $80 million in lost earnings. Alternatively, it is estimated that there is a .95 probability of only slight losses of around $1 million. Using decision tree analysis, determine whether the…
