Answer:
a. Current ratio
Explanation:
Current Ratio is the least likely to be affected
The Current Ratio is given as
Current Ratio = [ Current assets ] ÷ [ Current liabilities ]
Now,
Building a new plant is a fixed asset for the company.
Thus, It will add to the Fixed assets
Since,
The Formula for current ratio is independent of the fixed assets
Therefore,
It will be least affected.
While,
Debt to equity ratio = [ Debt ] ÷ [ Equity ]
Debt to asset ratio= [ Total Debt ] ÷ [ Total Assets ]
Net fixed assets to total assets = [ Net fixed assets ] ÷ [ Total assets ]
in all the above relations, fixed asset will change the value of the total assets.
Hence,
They all will be affected
Answer:
The requirement of the question is as below:
How much must Alan deposit on January 1? (Round your final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)
What is the interest for the four years? (Round your final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)
Alan deposit on January 1 is $ 58,802.39
Interest for four years is $21,197.61
Explanation:
The first is asking for today's worth of the investment,which is the amount to be invested,this can be computed using the present value as shown below:
PV=FV*(1+r)^-n
PV is the present value
FV is the worth of the investment in 4 years from now which is $80,000
r is the rate of return of 8%
n is the number of years of investment which is 4 years
PV=$80,000*(1+8%)^-4
PV=$80,0008(1+0.08)^-4
PV=$80,000*(1.08)^-4
PV =$ 58,802.39
interest for four years=FV-PV
interest for four years=$80,000-$ 58,802.39
=$21,197.61
