Answer:
ROI = net profit / total investment
1. What is the current return on investment (ROI) being realized by your division
- ROI = $625,000 / $4,150,000 = 15.06%
2. What would happen to the near-term ROI of your division after adding the effect of the new investment?
- ROI = ($625,000 + $50,000) / ($4,150,000 + $550,000) = 14.36%
If you carry out the new project the ROI of your division will decrease.
3. As manager of this division, given your incentive compensation plan, would you be motivated to make the new investment?
- Even though the new project's return (9.1%) is considered acceptable by upper management, you will probably reject it since it will decrease your division's total ROI. When managers are assigned bonuses based on certain achievements, reducing your profitability ratio will probably result in no bonus.
Answer:
cash 910,000 debit
bonds payable 850,000 credit
premium on BP 60,000 credit
-- to record issuance of bonds --
interest expense 63700 debit
amortization 4300 credit
cash 68000 credit
--to record coupon payment at December 31th--
Explanation:
issuance:
cash proceed of 910,000 face value of 850,000 the 60,000 difference wil be a premium.
interest entry:
we multiply the carrying value of the bonds by the market rate
we calcualte the cash procees as ussual: face value x bond rate
the difference wil be the amortization on premium
910,000 x 7% 63,700
850,000 x 8% 68,000
amorization 4,300
Answer:
5.13%
Explanation:
Given:
Worth of investment today (PV) = $1,000
Investment worth after 6 years (FV) = $1,350
Time period of investment (nper) = 6 Years
It is required to compute annual return (RATE). This can be computed using spreadsheet function =RATE(nper,-PV,FV).
Substituting the values, we get =RATE(6,-1000,1350)
= 5.13%
Present value is negative as it is a cash outflow.
Therefore, annual return is computes as 5.13%.
