Fit & Slim (F&S) is a health club that offers members various gym services.

Required:
1. Assume F&S offers a deal whereby enrolling in a new membership for $700 provides a year of unlimited access to facilities and also entitles the member to receive a voucher redeemable for 25% off yoga classes for one year. The yoga classes are offered to gym members as well as to the general public. A new membership normally sells for $720, and a one-year enrollment in yoga classes sells for an additional $500. F&S estimates that approximately 40% of the vouchers will be redeemed. F&S offers a 10% discount on all one-year enrollments in classes as part of its normal promotion strategy.

1. a. & b. Indicate below whether each item is a separate performance obligation. For each separate performance obligation you have indicated, allocate a portion of the contract price.
c. Prepare the journal entry to recognize revenue for the sale of a new membership.

2.  Assume F&S offers a “Fit 50” coupon book with 50 prepaid visits over the next year. F&S has learned that Fit 50 purchasers make an average of 40 visits before the coupon book expires. A customer purchases a Fit 50 book by paying $500 in advance, and for any additional visits over 50 during the year after the book is purchased, the customer can pay a $15 visitation fee per visit. F&S typically charges $15 to nonmembers who use the facilities for a single day.

a. & b. Indicate below whether each item is a separate performance obligation. For each separate performance obligation you have indicated, allocate a portion of the contract price.

15. What are the proceeds of $1,000,000 deposited in a bank yesterday (Aug 6) for 1 month at 1.5%? Take care to apply “money market” rules and use the proper “day count.”
16. What is the present value (as of today, Aug 7) of $1MM to be paid Feb 7 2019 at a (discount) rate of 2%. (Same instructions as in 15.)
17. An asset promises to pay the following:
? $60 each year for the next ten years: and
? $1,000 in ten years
Assume all the cash flows are discounted by 6%. Use the annuity formula to get the price of the first part. Use the standard discounting formula to get the price of the second part. Add them together. This is a bond with a coupon rate of 60/1,000 = 6% and a maturity of ten years. Its yield-to-maturity is 6%.

18. Consider a bond with a coupon rate of 5%, face value $100,000 and twenty year maturity.
?a) What is its price if the yield-to-maturity is 5%? What about 6%? 4%? Calculate these as ?explained in #17, or use the bond pricing formula.
?b) Repeat the three parts of a) but for a thirty-year maturity.

You are now ready to play the part of the manager of the public transit system. Your finance officer has just advised you that the system faces a deficit. Your board does not want you to cut service, which means that you cannot cut costs. Your only hope is to increase revenue. Would a fare increase boost revenue? You consult the economist on your staff who has researched studies on public transportation elasticities. She reports that the estimated price elasticity of demand for the first few months after a price change is about −0.3, but that after several years, it will be about −1.5. Explain why the estimated values for price elasticity of demand differ. Compute what will happen to ridership and revenue over the next few months if you decide to raise fares by 5%. Compute what will happen to ridership and revenue over the next few years if you decide to raise fares by 5%. What happens to total revenue now and after several years if you choose to raise fares?

HSA, a local hospital system has set up a new vaccination facility for a virus that is causing serious illness in the region.

The total cost for the set up is $300,000. The hospital system services patients with all types of insurance. They would like to make $10,000 extra income at the end of the year. In terms of the number of patients, they have Medicare (30%), and Medicaid (25%), Managed Care Type I (5%), Managed Care type II (35%), and Uninsured (5%).

The first three categories have fixed payment rates, for Medicare $180, Medicaid $170, and Managed care Type I $225. The other two pay based on the hospital charges (or prices). Managed Care Type 2 pays 80% of the charges and the Uninsured pay on an average 10% of the charges.

The expected annual volume is 2000.

  1. Determine the price (charges) the hospital system can charge for the vaccination to obtain the desired extra income.
  2. Using the price obtained in part (a) compute the total income the hospital can get, and show that with the targeted price, it can get the $10,000 extra income.

Imagine that you are the CEO of Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton SE (LVMH). You have just received share price valuation estimates for a potential buyout target, Rimowa, from two of your top financial analysts. You have confidence in their estimates because they have taken FIN 305 from the Shidler College of Business. Both analysts used the discounted cash flow (DCF) model to estimate the share price resulting in a valuation of $50, by the first analyst and $60, by the second analyst. Part I: Identify two possible causes for the significant difference in valuation and briefly explain how each possible cause affected the DCF model’s share price estimate. Part II: You made a buyout offer of $55 a share and Rimowa’s CEO rejected it. The German luxury luggage brand Rimowa is crucial to LVHM’s strategic expansion into brands that have heritage and a unique position. As the CEO of LVHM what would you do to meet LVHM’s strategic objective while minimizing the cost to acquire Rimowa? Briefly defend your recommendation.

1a. Staind, Inc., has 7 percent coupon bonds on the market that have 15 years left to maturity. The bonds make annual payments. If the YTM on these bonds is 10 percent, what is the current bond price? (note: when the face value is not given for a bond, assume it is $1,000)

1b. Ackerman Co. has 7 percent coupon bonds on the market with ten years left to maturity. The bonds make annual payments. If the bond currently sells for $1,040.37, what is its yield to maturity (YTM)?

1c. Kiss the Sky Enterprises has bonds on the market making annual payments, with 6 years to maturity, and selling for $850. At this price, the bonds yield 10.0 percent. What must the coupon rate be on the bonds? (Note: first find the coupon payment, then the coupon rate. The face value of $1,000 x coupon rate = coupon payment).

1d. Grohl Co. issued 15-year bonds a year ago at a coupon rate of 9 percent (APR). The bonds make semiannual payments. If the YTM on these bonds is 10 percent (APR), what is the current bond price?
