Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

$1,500

Explanation:

Given that,

Sales = $9,000

Operating costs = $6,000

Depreciation = $1,500

Interest rate = 7%

Federal-plus-state income tax rate = 40%

Operating income or EBIT:

= Sales - Operating costs - Depreciation

= $9,000 - $6,000 - $1,500

= $1,500

Here, the interest rate and taxes were ignored as we want to determine the operating income or earnings before interest and taxes. Interest on bonds is a non operating income.

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The gain should be deducted from net profit before tax and interest while calculating cash flows from operations and the cash proceeds is shown under investing activities as positive cash flow.

The overall impact of this transaction on cash flow statement is illustrated below:

Gain -$45000

Cash proceeds $230000

Net impact $185000

The transaction has $185000 impact on the cash flow statement as a whole.

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer: fall; decrease

Explanation:

People save in order to be able to consume in future. If it is discovered that there will be no fixture, there would be no need to save. The supply of loanable funds would therefore decrease as people stopped saving.

Because there is reduced loanable funds, less investments would be done as these require loanable funds. With less investments being done, the economic output will decrease.
