Present worth is $7,944 ( Considering some assumptions )

Depreciation is the reduction in the value of asset due to wear and tear. Depreciation is charged only on fixed asset on a straight line or on a fixed rate per year.

Computer and other hardware of $12,000 to be depreciated over 5 years with no salvage value

<u>Depreciation </u><u>per year = ( Cost of Asset - Salvage value ) / Useful life </u>

= ($12,000 - $0) / 5 = $12,000/5 = $2,400 per year

It is assumed that the assets are donated at the end of third year and depreciation of that year is fully charged.

Depreciation for 3 years = $2,400 x 3 = $7,200

Now As all these event happened in the past and it is assumed that we are standing at the end of year 3, the present worth of the all these depreciation is actually the future value of these deduction because it was made earlier.

Present worth of depreciation is as follows

Present Worth = [$2,400 x (1+0.1)^2 ] + [$2,400 x (1+0.1)^1 ] + [$2,400 x (1+0.1)^0 ] = $2,904 + $2,640 + $2,400 = $7,944

Third deduction was made at the date when worth is being calculated.

Kaskin, Inc., stock has a beta of 1.2 and Quinn, Inc., stock has a beta of 0.6. Which of the following statements is most accura
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The equilibrium expected rate of return is higher for Kaskin than for Quinn.

Explanation:

Option A “The equilibrium expected rate of return is higher for Kaskin than for Quinn” is more accurate because the expected return is calculated by multiplying the risk premium with beta value and then adding with risk-free return. However, if the beta value is high, then the magnitude after multiplying with the risk premium will be high. Moreover, is magnitude will be added to risk-free return to find the expected return. Thus, it can be seen that Kaskin has high beta 1.2 as compared to Quinn’s beta value 0.6. So, the Kaskin has a higher expected return.

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

1. <em>Holders of the stock are entitled to receive current and all past dividends before common stockholders receive any dividends</em>  - Cumulative Shares

Holders of Cumulative Shares will always receive the dividends owed to them because even if they do not get it in a particular period, the dividends will accrue until the company is able to pay them.

Participating Shareholders are eligible to receive an extra dividend provided that there is surplus profit after all the other dividends have been paid off.

<em>3. Holders of the stock are not entitled to receive dividends in excess of the stated rate.  - </em>Non- Participating Shares

Even if there are surplus profits after all other dividends have been paid off, these holders are not entitled to that profit.

<em>4. Holders of the stock lose any dividends that are not declared in the current year - </em>Non- Cumulative Shares

If their dividend is not declared in a certain period, they will forfeit that dividend for the period.

The decision to change the international pages of the CH2M Hill website was a decision that took a great deal of thought and dis
Advocard [28]

Answer:

The effectiveness of any decision making process can only be evaluated after the decision was made and depending on the results. The unstructured decision making process is carried out when there is no other apparent alternative that can work. The problem with this type of solutions is that they are new and untested, which means that there is the possibility of being a great choice or a great mistake.

In Ch2M's case, the unstructured decision making process included the whole website team because they it was a way of distributing responsibilities in case the decision wasn't the best.

That is the problem with this type of process, the person that makes the decision will be held responsible for the results and the whole process is actually new, but necessary since there is no other alternative. Personally, I believe that this type of decision process should be taken only as a last resort.
