Answer:
FV= $159,840.60
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Initial investment= $1,000
Number of years= 2016 - 1912= 104
Interest rate= 5%
<u>To calculate the value of the investment today, we need to use the following formula:</u>
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 1,000*(1.05^104)
FV= $159,840.60
Based on the amount of debt and equity that Little LampLighter has, the weighted average rate of return would be 12.3%.
<h3>What is the weighted average rate of return?</h3>
First find the total value of debt and equity:
= 10 + 25
= $35 million
The weighted average return is:
= (10 / 35 x 8%) + (25 / 35 x 14%)
= 2.286% + 10%
= 12.3%

Answer: 1. 18 times
2. Park is in better position
Explanation:
1. Times interest earned is a financial ratio that measures interest coverage. It's essentially to check if a company can pay it's debt payments and is calculated by either EBIT or EBITDA divided by the total interest expense. The higher the better and anything above 2.5 times is usually considered.
Calculating would therefore be,
= $6,120,000 /$340,000
= 18 times.
2. As mentioned in the first answer, for the Times interest earned, the higher it is, the more favourable it is. So Park Company will be considered safer and are most definitely in a better or worse position than its competitor to make interest payments if the economy turns bad. The fact that theirs is 18 means that they can pay off their interest expense 5 times more than their competitor who can only repay 12 times.
