Clancey Inc. issues $2,000,000 of 7% bonds due in 10 years with interest payable at year-end. The current market rate of interest for bonds of similar risk is 8%. What amount will Clancey receive when it issues the bonds?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The amount received by Clancey on issuing the bonds will be $186,5791.

Step by step solution

01

Computation of PV

PV=FV(PVFn,i)=2,000,000×0.46319=$926,380

02

Computation of PV-OA

PV-OA=R(PVF-OAn,i)=140,000×6.71008=$939,411

03

Computation of amount received when bonds are issued

AmountReceived=PV+(PV-OA)=926,380+939,411=$1,865,791

Danny’s Lawn Equipment sells high-quality lawn mowers and offers a 3-year warranty on all new lawn mowers sold. In 2017, Danny sold \(300,000 of new specialty mowers for golf greens for which Danny’s service department does not have the equipment to do the service. Danny has entered into an agreement with Mower Mavens to provide all warranty service on the special mowers sold in 2017. Danny wishes to measure the fair value of the agreement to determine the warranty liability for sales made in 2017. The controller for Danny’s Lawn Equipment estimates the following expected warranty cash outflows associated with the mowers sold in 2017.

Cash Flow Probability Year Estimate Assessment 2018 \)2,500 20% 4,000 60% 5,000 20% 2019 \(3,000 30% 5,000 50% 6,000 20% 2020 \)4,000 30% 6,000 40% 7,000 30%

Instructions Using expected cash flow and present value techniques determine the value of the warranty liability for the 2017 sales. Use an annual discount rate of 5%. Assume all cash flows occur at the end of the year.

Consolidated Natural Gas Company (CNG), with corporate headquarters in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, is one of the largest producers, transporters, distributors, and marketers of natural gas in North America.

Periodically, the company experiences a decrease in the value of its gas- and oil-producing properties, and a special charge to income was recorded in order to reduce the carrying value of those assets.

Assume the following information. In 2016, CNG estimated the cash inflows from its oil- and gas-producing properties to be \(375,000 per year. During 2017, the write-downs described above caused the estimate to be decreased to \)275,000 per year. Production costs (cash outflows) associated with all these properties were estimated to be \(125,000 per year in 2016, but this amount was revised to \)155,000 per year in 2017.

Instructions (Assume that all cash flows occur at the end of the year.)

(a) Calculate the present value of net cash flows for 2016–2018 (three years), using the 2016 estimates and a 10% discount factor.

(b) Calculate the present value of net cash flows for 2017–2019 (three years), using the 2017 estimates and a 10% discount factor.

(c) Compare the results using the two estimates. Is information on future cash flows from oil- and gas-producing properties useful, considering that the estimates must be revised each year? Explain.

During the past year, Stacy McGill planted a new vineyard on 150 acres of land that she leases for \(30,000 a year. She has asked you, as her accountant, to assist her in determining the value of her vineyard operation.

The vineyard will bear no grapes for the first 5 years (1–5). In the next 5 years (6–10), Stacy estimates that the vines will bear grapes that can be sold for \)60,000 each year. For the next 20 years (11–30), she expects the harvest will provide annual revenues of \(110,000. But during the last 10 years (31–40) of the vineyard’s life, she estimates that revenues will decline to \)80,000 per year.

During the first 5 years, the annual cost of pruning, fertilizing, and caring for the vineyard is estimated at \(9,000; during the years of production, 6–40, these costs will rise to \)12,000 per year. The relevant market rate of interest for the entire period is 6%. Assume that all receipts and payments are made at the end of each year.

Instructions Dick Button has offered to buy Stacy’s vineyard business by assuming the 40-year lease. On the basis of the current value of the business, what is the minimum price Stacy should accept?

You have been hired as a benefit consultant by Jean Honore, the owner of Attic Angels. She wants to establish a retirement plan for herself and her three employees. Jean has provided the following information. The retirement plan is to be based upon annual salary for the last year before retirement and is to provide 50% of Jean’s last-year annual salary and 40% of the last-year annual salary for each employee. The plan will make annual payments at the beginning of each year for 20 years from the date of retirement. Jean wishes to fund the plan by making 15 annual deposits beginning January 1, 2017. Invested funds will earn 12% compounded annually. Information about plan participants as of January 1, 2017, is as follows.

Jean Honore, owner: Current annual salary of \(48,000; estimated retirement date January 1, 2042.

Colin Davis, flower arranger: Current annual salary of \)36,000; estimated retirement date January 1, 2047.

Anita Baker, sales clerk: Current annual salary of \(18,000; estimated retirement date January 1, 2037.

Gavin Bryars, part-time bookkeeper: Current annual salary of \)15,000; estimated retirement date January 1, 2032.

In the past, Jean has given herself and each employee a year-end salary increase of 4%. Jean plans to continue this policy in the future.

Instructions

(a) Based upon the above information, what will be the annual retirement benefit for each plan participant? (Round to the nearest dollar.) (Hint: Jean will receive raises for 24 years.)

(b) What amount must be on deposit at the end of 15 years to ensure that all benefits will be paid? (Round to the nearest dollar.)

(c) What is the amount of each annual deposit Jean must make to the retirement plan?

Recently, Glenda Estes was interested in purchasing a Honda Acura. The salesperson indicated that the price of the car was either \(27,600 cash or \)6,900 at the end of each of 5 years. Compute the effective-interest rate to the nearest percent that Glenda would pay if she chooses to make the five annual payments.
