<span>120
   The simple answer is that 5 items can be arranged 5! (5 factorial) different ways. But let's expand upon that brief answer. We have 5 jobs and 5 machines with which to perform those jobs. So let's look at the 1st machine. Any of 5 of the jobs may be assigned to it. Now we have 4 jobs left unassigned. So let's look at the 2nd machine. For that machine, any of the 4 remaining jobs may be assigned to it, leaving 3 unassigned jobs. We can continue in that fashion, assigning at random one the of 3 remaining jobs to the 3rd machine, one of the 2 remaining jobs to the 4th machine, and finally, the only unassigned job to the 5th machine. So there's 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 5! = 120 different ways to assign those 5 jobs to all 5 machines.</span>

Desert Rose, Inc., a prominent consumer products firm, is debating whetherto convert its all-equity capital structure to one tha
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

A. $450

B. $480

C. $540

D. The choice of capitl structure is irrelevant because the amount of $480 is the payoff amount based on the proposed capital structure with 30% debt, which indicate that investors cannot make use of home leverage to help create the capital structure as well as the payoffs they like.

Explanation:

a) Calculation to determine her cash flow under the current capital structure

First step is to calculate the earnings per share

EPS = $29,000 / 6,500 shares

EPS = $4.5

Now let calculate the cash flow under the current capital structure

Cash flow = $4.5*(100 shares)

Cash flow = $450

Therefore her cash flow under the current capital structure will be $450

b) Calculation to determine What will be the cash flow be under the proposed capital structure of the firm

First step is to calculate the earnings per share

First step is to calculate the MV of the firm

MV of the firm= $45(6,500)

MV of the firm= $292,500

Second step is to calculate the Debt

Debt = .30 x ($292,500)

Debt= $87,750

Third step is to calculate the Interest

Interest =8% x $87,750

Interest = $7,020

Fourth step is to calculate the repurchase shares

Repurchase shares =$87,750 / $45

Repurchase shares= 1,950

Fifth step is to calculate the Shrout new

Shrout new =6,500 - 1,950

Shrout new=4,550

Therefore, under the new capital structure,

EPS = (EBIT - Interest) / shares outstanding new

EPS = ($29,000 -$7,020) / 4,550shares

EPS =$21,980/4,550 shares

EPS =4.8

The shareholder will receive = $4.8*(100 shares) = $480

Therefore What will be the cash flow be under the proposed capital structure of the firm is $480

c) Calculation to Show how she could unlever her shares of stock to re-create the original structure.

Now she owns a total of 200 shares

Her payoff =[ (100 shares+100 shares) x $4.5 ]- [8% x $(100 shares x $45)]

Her payoff =(200shares×$4.5)-(8%×$4,500)

Her payoff =$900-$360

Her payoff= $540

Therefore Based on the above Calculation Allison did not successfully replicate the payoffs (b) under the proposed capital structure

d).Based on the above Calculation the choice of capitl structure is irrelevant because the amount of $480 is the payoff amount based on the proposed capital structure with 30% debt, which indicate that investors cannot make use of home leverage to help create the capital structure as well as the payoffs they like.

payback period = $ 2,000,000/ $ 150,000

      =13.33 years

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer: D -LIFO results in a higher net income than FIFO when costs are falling.

LIFO means last in, first out. It means the last inventory purchased is the first inventory sold.

FIFO means first in,first out. It means older inventories are sold off first.
