Projecting revenues, cost of goods sold, and inventory

use the following data for Walgreens in years 11 and 12 to project revenues, cost of goods sold, and inventory for year +1. Assume that Walgreen's year +1 revenue growth rate, gross profit margin and inventory turnover will be identical to year 12. Project the average inventory balance in year+1 and use it to compute the implied ending inventory balance.

An investor is provided with the following information on American put and call options on a share of a company listed on the London Stock Exchange:

• Call price (c₀) = 33p
• Put price (p₀) = 49p
• Exercise price (X) = 480p
• Today: 11 June 2019
• Expiry date: 20 December 2019
• Current stock price (S₀) = 458p
• Risk-free interest rate (r) = 2.4%
• The company pays no dividends.

Draw a graph showing the prices at expiry of a fiduciary call and another one showing a protective put, including all of their components, in relation to the price of the stock in a range between 350p and 600p.

Ayasha, age 30, is beginning to contemplate her financial future. Right now, she lives in a large city where she rents a one-bedroom apartment. Although she loves the excitement of the city, she knows that someday she would like to move to the country and live in a farmhouse. Her goal is to begin saving for this objective right away. Ayasha has identified three possible portfolios that might be appropriate choices as she begins investing to reach her objective. Each portfolio consists of the following stocks, bonds, and cash assets.

Instructions:

1. Calculate the weighted average rate of return for each portfolio, assuming that the average return of each asset is as follows. (Hint: Multiply the allocation percentage by the rate of return to determine the “weighted average” for the asset: stocks 9%, bonds 4%, and cash assets 2%.)

2. Which portfolio has the greatest level of uncertainty associated with the returns? How can you tell?

3. If Ayashaʼs risk tolerance is below average and she has a long-time horizon (15 years), which of the three portfolios would be most appropriate for her?

4. If Ayashaʼs time horizon for goal achievement is 4 years, which portfolio would be most appropriate?

5. What type of risk does Ayasha face if she invests in portfolio 3?

It's always fun to get together with family, friends and other acquaintances to share some great fun, food and fellowship. So, lets have ourselves a virtual potluck and you are all invited.

For this Discussion Board assignment, we have all agreed to have a virtual Thanksgiving dinner and split the cost. Everyone has to select and bring their favorite recipe to the potluck. We all agreed to split the cost equally and we'll say that there are 20 of us going to attend. That means that we may need to made several batches of certain recipes to serve 20.

Here's what you need to do:

1.) Provide the detailed recipe that you are going to make.

2.) Price out and show the calculations for the cost of the ingredients required to make the recipe.

3.) Provide the calculations you used to determine the direct labor cost required to make it (this includes the time it tale to go to the store to buy the ingredients, the time it takes to prep and prepare it, and any time required for it to bake or set up in the refrigerator) and the time it takes to clean up. Assume labor costs are $15 per hour.

4.) Don't forget the overhead costs which include gasoline in the car, electric used to bake or cool your dish, detergent to wash the dishes, and others. Assume that the pre-determined overhead rate is $2.50 per direct labor hour. Show how you calculated this as well.

5.) Compute and show your calculations for the total cost of to make the dish and then also the per person cost.

Post all of this to the Discussion Board and then make an additional post stating which recipe (other than your own) you would select and tell us why.

Question 1
-You are a member of the Partmerships Victoria Team managing the procurement of the Footscray Hospital. It has been announced that this project will be delivered as a PPP.
-You have been asked to provide a briefing note to the Treasurer addressing the following questions from his Chief-of- Staff:

-Why is this hospital being delivered as a PPP？

-The Northern Beaches Hospital PPP appears to have faced some problems and is now subject toa Parliamentary Inquiry. Will we encounter the same difficulties and how are we approaching the scoping of the project?

-It is understood that based on previous precedent, the private sector is likely to use non-recourse project finance and set up a special purpose company; what does this mean, what risks does it present for government and how will we protect ourselves?

You have been asked to assess the impact of possible changes in reserve requirement components on the dollar amount of reserves required. Assume the reserve percentages are currently set at 2 percent on the first $50 million of traction account amounts; 4 percent on the second $50 million; and 10 percent on transaction amounts over $100 million. The First National Bank has transaction account balances of $100 million, while the Second National Bank’s transaction balances are $150 million and the Third National Bank’s transaction balances are $250 million.

a. Determine the dollar amounts of required reserves for each of the three banks.

b. Calculate the percentage of reserves to total transactions accounts for each of the three banks.

c. The Central Bank wants to slow the economy by raising the reserve requirements for member banks. To do so, the reserve percentages will be increased to 12 percent on transaction balances above $100 million. Simultaneously, the 2 percent rate will apply on the first $25 million. Calculate the reserve requirement amount for each of the three banks after these changes have taken place.

d. Show the dollar amount of changes in reserve requirement amounts for each bank. Calculate the percentage of reserve requirement amounts to transaction account balances for each bank.

e. Which of the two reserve requirement changes discussed in (c) causes the greatest impact on the dollar amount of reserves for all three of the banks?

f. Now assume that you could either: (1) lower the transactions account amount for the lowest category from $50 million down to $25 million, or (2) increase the reserve percentage from 10 percent to 12 percent on transactions account amounts over $200 million. Which choice would you recommend if you were trying to achieve a moderate slowing of economic activity?

ou are given the following stream of cash flows: Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 $100,000 $110,000 $120,000 $130,000 $140,000 A. If you thought the appropriate discount rate was 10%, what would be the present value of this cash flow stream today at t=0? B. If you thought the appropriate interest/discount rate was 10%, what would be the future value of this cash flow stream in five years at t=5 years?
