olganol [36]

Answer:

a. 5.37%

b. 5.08%

Explanation:

Firstly, we need to calculate net profit before return on stockholder's equity

Sales. $4,430,000

Net income % on sales 2%

Net income. $88,600

We will also calculate total stockholder's equity

Sales. $4,430,000

Asset turnover ratio. 4.5

Total assets. $984,444

Less: current liab. ($167,000)

Less: long term liab. ($342,000)

Total stockholder's. $475,444

equity

a. Return on stockholder's equity

= Total stockholder's equity ÷ Net income

= $475,444 ÷ $88,600

= 5.37%

b. New return on stockholder's equity

Total assets $984,444

× Asset turnover ratio. 4.75

New total sales. $4,676,109

Net income % sales. 2%

Net income $93,522

Recall that total stockholder's equity = $475,444

Net income = $93,522

Therefore, New return on stockholder's

equity = Total stockholder's equity / Net income

= $475,444 ÷ $93,522

= 5.08%

Question 10 of 36

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

To answer the question, we look at an extreme scenario of 0% interest rate and see the minimum repayment Jade will make on the loan taken

Therefore,

Interest Rate = 0%

This means that the loan to be paid will be calculated as follows

Monthly payments x 12 Months x 14 Years

= $195 x 12 months x 14 years = $32, 760

The meaning of this outcome is that the lower the interest rate to be paid, the higher the size of the loan, because at 2.9% the loan= $26,898.98 and at 0% rate the loan= $32, 760.

The conclusion therefore is a 2.7% interest rate which is lower than 2.9% but not as low as the extreme 0% will cause the loan amount to be higher than $26,898.98. This affirms option A.

Options B and C are wrong because 2.5% and 2.3% are lower than 2.9%, therefore, the loan amount will be higher. Option D is also wrong because a 3.1% interest rate is higher than 2.9%, therefore, the amount should be lower not higher than $26,898.98

Helen [10]

Answer:

$51,164

Explanation:

The project's terminal cash flow is basically the cash flow of the project's last year.

depreciable value = $80,000 + $6,000 - $23,031 = $62,969

depreciation expense per year = $62,969 / 5 = $12,593.80 per year

net cash flow year 5 = [(savings - depreciation expense) x (1 - tax rate)] + depreciation expense + salvage value + recovery of net working capital = [($28,000 - $12,593.80) x (1 - 35%)] + $12,593.80 + $23,031 + $5,525 = $51,163.83 ≈ $51,164
