The approximate internal rate of return for this investment is $0.054.

<h3><u>What is rate of return?</u></h3>
  • The net gain or loss of an investment over a given time period, stated as a percentage of the investment's starting cost, is known as a rate of return (RoR).
  • You determine the percentage change from the start of the period to the end when computing the rate of return.
  • Any type of investment instrument, including real estate, bonds, equities, and fine art, can be subject to a rate of return (RoR).

Any asset can be used with the RoR as long as it is purchased once and generates cash flow at some point in the future. The attractiveness of various investments can be determined, in part, by comparing their historical rates of return to those of comparable assets.

We have, (Net Annual cash inflow x PV of an Annuity of 1 at 10%) - Initial Investment = Net present value (find closest to zero))

($17,514 x 4.111) = $72000.054 - $72,000 = $0.054 (closest to zero).

Daniels Transport has operating income of $68,200, interest expense of $210, dividends paid of $320, depreciation of $12,400, ot
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Operating income = $68,200

Interest expense = $210

Dividends paid = $320

Depreciation = $12,400

Other income = $2,100

common stock = $48,500 with a par value of $1 per share

Retained earnings = $29,700

Income before taxes:

= Operating income - Interest expense + Other income

= $68,200 - $210 + $2,100

= $70,090

Net income:

= Income before taxes - Taxes at 21%

= $70,090 - ($70,090 × 21%)

= $70,090 - $14,719

= $55,371

Shares of common stock outstanding:

= Common stock ÷ Par value per share

= $48,500 ÷ $1

= 48,500 shares

Earnings per share:

= (Net income - Preferred dividend) ÷ Shares of common stock outstanding = ($55,371 - 0) ÷ 48,500

= $1.14 per share

Therefore, the earnings per share if the tax rate is 21 percent is $1.14.

Tech distractions do not include answer your phone while driving changing the radio station while driving fiddling with air-cond
Inessa [10]
<h2>The given statement is false. </h2>

Explanation:

If the driver has set the phone to "do not disturb" then definitely the notification that he gets through various apps will be kept silent, calls will reach voice mail and we will be notified with missed calls and our screen will be blank when the call is received. But this do not disturb mode does not control the air-conditioning of the car or blocking the driver from changing the radio station.

It is found from a survey that the road accidents are more when the mobile usage of the driver is more. Many drivers though they know about the consequences, they still use mobile phones while driving.
