63,800,000 2 – 12,800,000 This project has two IRR's, namely percent and percent, in order from smallest to largest. (Note: If you can only compute one IRR value, you should input that amount into both answer boxes in order to obtain some credit.)

Answer:

The two IRRs are: - 76.49% and 36.79%

Explanation:

To simplify our "Hard work", let's denote the cash flow numbers in terms of '000 (To reduce the number of zeros).

IRR is that discount rate R, for which NPV = 0

NPV is the sum of discounted cash inflows and outflows. Therefore,

NPV ($'000) = - 39,800 + (63,800 / (1 + R) - [12,800 / (1 + R)2]

When NPV = 0 [If R is the IRR],

0 = - 39,800 + [(63,800 / (1 + R)] - [12,800 / (1 + R)2]

[12,800 / (1 + R)2] - [(63,800 / (1 + R)] + 39,800 = 0

To simplify further, let's put N = 1 + R. Also, let's divide both sides by 200 [Note: We're only doing arithmetical simplification to reduce the large numbers]]:

[64 / (N)2] - (319 / N) + 199 = 0

Multiplying all terms by (N2):

64 - 319N + 199 (N)2 = 0

that is,

199 (N)2 - 319N + 64 = 0

This is a quadratic equation with large coefficients. Solving quadratic equation is outside scope of this question (it belongs to Algebra), so I've used an Online Quadratic equation solver**, which returns following values of N:

N = 1.3679, and N = 0.2351

So:

1 + R = 1.3679, Or 1 + R = 0.2351

R = (1.3679 - 1) or R = (0.2351 - 1)

R = 0.3679 or R = - 0.7649

The two IRRs are: - 76.49% and 36.79%

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Debited to Retained Earnings of $500,000.

Explanation:

At the time of declaration of the dividend, the journal entry is recorded which is shown below:

Retained earning A/c Dr  $500,000

             To Dividend payable  A/c $500,000

(Being cash dividend declared)

On the declaration date, the dividend amount is recorded. So while recording we debited the retained earning account and credited the dividend payable account

All other information which is given is not relevant. Hence, ignored it

Garnett Co. expects to purchase $180,000 of materials in July and $210,000 of materials in August. Three-fourths of all purchase
Savatey [412]

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Explanation:

It is given that Garnett Co. expects to purchase $180,000 of materials in July and $210,000 of materials in August.

Purchase in July = $180,000

Purchase in August = $210,000

Three-fourths of all purchases are paid for in the month of purchase, and the other one-fourth are paid for in the month following the month of purchase.

In August, the cash disbursements for materials purchases be 3/4th of $210,000 (Purchase in August) and 1/4  of $180,000 (Purchase in July).

August's cash disbursements for materials purchases be

Amount=\frac{3}{4}\times 210000+\frac{1}{4}\times 180000

Amount=157500+45000

Amount=202500

The August's cash disbursements for materials purchases be $202500. Therefore the correct option is B.

has 10 percent coupon bonds on the market with 19 years to maturity. The bonds make semiannual payments and currently sell for 1
katovenus [111]

Answer:

4.62%

Explanation:

we need to calculate the yield to maturity of the bond:

YTM = [coupon + (face value - market value)/n] / [(face value + market value)/2]

  • coupon = $50
  • face value = $1,000
  • market value = $1,078
  • n = 38 semiannual payments

YTM = [$50 + ($1,000 - $1,078)/38] / [($1,000 + $1,078)/2]

YTM = $47.95 / $1,039 = 4.615 ≈ 4.62%
