The balance sheet of Computer World reports total assets of $350,000 and $450,000 at the beginning and end of the year, respecti
NikAS [45]

Answer:

37.5%

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the Value of the cash return on asset

We use a mathematical representation to do this. Let’s get the formula.

Mathematically:

Cash return on assets = operating cash flows/average total assets

According to the question, the operating cash flow has a value of $150,000. The average total assists have a value of (350,000+450,000)/2 = 800,000/2 = $400,000

We input these values into the formula:

Cash return on assets = 150,000/400,000 = 37.5%

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

a. 9,50%

b. $47.09

Explanation:

a) Discount rate on the stock

Average Risk Premium of Stock = 7.60%

Current risk-free rate = 1.60%

Discount Rate = 7.60% + 1.90%

Discount Rate = 9.50%

b) Current Price = ($41 + $2) / (1 + 9.50%)^1

Current Price = $43 / (1.0950)^1

Current Price = $43 / (1.0950)^1

Current Price = $43 / 0.91324

Current Price = $47.0851035872278

Current Price = $47.09

Note: Stock price equals the present value of cash flows for a 1-year horizon (Fv + Dividend)/(1+ Discount rate)^n
