Answer:
5.79 times
Explanation:
The times interest earned ratio tells us the number of times the company's made earnings in multiple of its debt interest obligation.
The formula for times earned interest ratio is the income before interest and taxes divided by the interest expense.
income before tax is $302,634
income before interest and taxes= $302,634+$63,228=$365,862.00
times interest earned ratio=$365,862.00/
$63,228= 5.79 times
Answer:
The most the firm can spend to lease the new equipment without losing money=$75,000
Explanation:
The point at which the revenue in terms of sales equals the cost is the break-even point. This can be expressed as;
R=C
where;
R=revenue from sales
C=cost
And;
R=P×N
where;
R=revenue from sales
P=price per unit
N=number of units
In our case;
P=$7.5 per unit
N=10,000 units
replacing;
R=7.5×10,000=$75,000
Total revenue from sales=$75,000
C=p×n
where;
p=cost per unit
n=number of units
In our case;
p=$5
n=unknown
replacing;
C=5×n=5 n
At break-even point, R=C;
5 n=75,000
n=75,000/5=15,000
The break-even cost=5×15,000=$75,000
The most the firm can spend to lease the new equipment without losing money=$75,000
Answer: ER(P) = ERX(WX) + ERY(WY)
16 = 13(1-WY) + 9(WY)
16 = 13 - 13WY + 9WY
16 = 13 - 4WY
4WY = 13-16
4WY = -3
WY = -3/4
WY = -0.75
WX = 1 - WY
WX = 1 - (-0.75)
WX = 1 + 0.75
WX = 1.75
The amount to be invested in stock Y = -0.75 x $106,000
= -$79,500
The Beta of the portfolio could be calculated using the formula:
BP = BX(WX) + BY(WY)
BP = 1.14(1.75) + 0.84(-0.75)
BP = 1.995 - 0.63
BP = 1.365
Explanation: The expected return of the portfolio is equal to expected return of stock X multiplied by the weight of stock X plus the expected return of stock Y multiplied by weight of security Y. The weight of security Y is -0.75. The weight of security X is equal to 1 - weight of security Y. Thus, the weight of security X is 1.75 since the weight of security Y is negative. The amount to be invested in security Y is -0.75 x $106,000, which is equal to -$79,500
The Beta of the portfolio equals Beta of stock X multiplied by weight of stock X plus the Beta of stock Y multiplied by weight of stock Y. The weights of the two stocks have been obtained earlier. Therefore, the Beta of the portfolio is 1.365.
Answer:
arithmetic average growth rate = (4% + 3.37% + 5.12% + 3.1%) / 4 = 3.9%
we need to find the required rate or return (RRR) in the following formula:
stock price = expected dividend / (RRR - growth rate)
- expected dividend = $2.33 x 1.039 = $2.42
- stock price = $55
- growth rate = 0.039
55 = 2.42 / (RRR - 0.039)
RRR - 0.039 = 2.42 / 55 = 0.044
RRR = 0.083 = 8.3%
geometric average growth rate = [(1.04 x 1.0337 x 1.0512 x 1.031)¹/⁴] - 1 = 3.89%
again we need to find the required rate or return (RRR) in the following formula:
stock price = expected dividend / (RRR - growth rate)
- expected dividend = $2.33 x 1.0389 = $2.42
- stock price = $55
- growth rate = 0.0389
55 = 2.42 / (RRR - 0.0389)
RRR - 0.0389 = 2.42 / 55 = 0.044
RRR = 0.0829 = 8.29%
Answer: $24
Explanation:
Given that,
Two workers serve = 16 customers per hour
Three workers serve = 22 customers per hour
Each customer spends an average of $4 in the store.
Total revenue from Two workers = 16 × $4
= $64
Total revenue from Three workers = 22 × $4
= $88
Therefore, the marginal benefit of hiring the third worker would be:
= Total revenue from Three workers - Total revenue from Two workers
= $88 - $64
= $24
