54- PROBLEM : Mr. Naveed has Rs. 70,000 that he can deposit in savings accounts of any of three banks A, B or C for a three year period. · Bank A compounds interest on an annual basis; · Bank B compounds interest semi-annually (twice each year); and · Bank C compounds interest quarterly (four times each year). · All three banks have a stated annual interest rate of 12%. REQUIRED : · How much Mr. Naveed will have in his account after three years if he deposits his money in Bank A ? · How much he will have in his account after three years if he deposits his money in Bank B ? · How much he will have in his account after three years if he deposits his money in Bank C ? · On the basis of your findings in above parts, describe in which bank should Mr. Naveed invest his money and why ?

SHORT QUESTIONS ANSWERS FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT WWW.MGTFORUM.NET SOLUTION: How much Mr. Naveed will have in his account after three years if he deposits his money in Bank A. The Formula for the calculation of compound interest is: M=P(1+i)n Where M = Final amount including the principal P = Principal amount. I = Rate of interest per year. N = No. of year invested. Where P = 70000 I = 12% or 0.12 N=3 M = 70000(1+0.12)3 = 70000(1.12)3 = 70000 * 1.404928 = 98344.96

98345

How much he will have in his account after three years if he deposits his money in Bank B ? For this Formula is A = P (1+ r/n)nt Where P = Principal amount. R = Annual rate of interest. T = number of years amount deposited or borrowed for. A = amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest. N = number of times the interest compounded per year.

SHORT QUESTIONS ANSWERS FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT WWW.MGTFORUM.NET Where P = 70000 R = 12% T=3 A = 70000 (1 + 012/2)2*3 = 70000 (1+0.06)6 = 70000 (1.06)6 = 70000 * 1.418519112 = 99296.337

99296

How much he will have in his account after three years if he deposits his money in Bank C ? A = P (1+ r/n)nt A = 70000 (1 + 012/3)3*3 = 70000 (1+0.04)9 = 70000 (1.04)9 = 70000 * 1.423311812 = 99631.82

99632

On the basis of your findings in above parts, describe in which bank should Mr. Naveed invest his money and why ? Mr. Naveed should invest his money in BANK C because it gives more interest than other banks. The reason is that in case of annual basis the principal does not change for whole year but in case of semi-annually or quarterly basis the principal amount increases after every six months respectively. So that interest also increases accordingly and it is more than the interest of annual basis.

SHORT QUESTIONS ANSWERS FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT WWW.MGTFORUM.NET 55- PROBLEM # 1: Assume two firms, A and B, produce and sell widgets. Firm A uses a highly automated production process with robotic machines, whereas firm B assembles the widgets using primarily semi-skilled labor. Highly automated firm A has fixed costs of Rs. 35,000 per year and variable costs of only Rs. 1.00 per unit, whereas labor- intensive firm B has fixed costs of only Rs. 15,000 per year, but its variable cost per unit is much higher at Rs. 3.00 per unit. Both firms produce and sell 10,000 widgets per year at a price of Rs. 5.00 per widget. (i)

= 77.78%

SHORT QUESTIONS ANSWERS FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT WWW.MGTFORUM.NET = 15000+ 30000

= 45000

Variable Cost Calculation for Firm B: Operating Leverage = (Fixed Cost / Total Cost)*100 = (15000/45000)*100

= 33.33%

Although the total cost for both the firm are same but Firm A is maintaining higher operating leverage, As Firm A using highly automated production process with robotic machines, because of this the variable cost reduced to Rs. 1/- per unit.

(ii)

How will you interpret the breakeven point of the firm with high operating leverage? Firm A (BEP)

Firm B (BEP)

Fixed Cost = 35000

Fixed Cost = 15000

Variable Cost = 1

Variable Cost = 3

Break even Point (Q) = fc/ (P-VC)

Where fc = Fixed Cost

Where fc = Fixed Cost

P = Price per unit

P = Price per unit

VC = Variable cost per unit

VC = Variable cost per unit

= 35000 / (5-1)

= 15000 / (5-3)

= 8750

= 7500

56- PROBLEM # 2: Assume the same two firms, A and B. At production levels of 10,000 widgets, they both had operating earnings (EBIT) of Rs. 5,000. In addition, assume that both firms have total assets of Rs. 40,000. Firm A is financed with Rs.10,000 of debt which carries an annual interest cost of 8 percent, and Rs. 30,000 of stockholders' equity (3,000 shares), firm B is
