Answer:

<u>Earnings per share:</u>

0% debt = $5.145 per share

15% debt = $5.487 per share

30% debt = $6.203 per share

45% debt =  $6.386 per share

60% debt = $6.570 per share

Explanation:

The earnings per share is the monetary value of how much each share of common stock outstanding has earned. The earnings per share can be calculated by dividing the Net Income attributable to common stockholders by the number of common stock shares outstanding.

Net Income attributable to Common stockholders = Net Income - Preferred stock dividends

Thus, Earnings per share = (Net Income - Preferred stock dividends) / Number of common stock shares outstanding

To calculate Earnings per share at each level of indebtedness, we first need to calculate the net income at each debt level. The net income will change as interest is deducted before calculating net income.

Net Income = EBIT - interest - tax

Total debt = Total assets * weightage of debt in capital structure

Tax = EBT * tax rate

a. 0% debt

Net Income = 2,050,000 - 0 - (2050000 * 0.4) = $1,230,000

Earnings per share = (1230000 - 201000) / 200000   =  $5.145 per share

b. 15% debt

Total debt = 9,800,000 * 0.15 = 1470000

EBT = 2,050,000 - (1470000 * 0.078)  =  $1935340

Net Income = 1935340 - ( 1935340 * 0.4) = $1161204

Earnings per share = (1161204 - 201000) / 175000   =  $5.487 per share

c. 30% debt

Total debt = 9,800,000 * 0.30 = 2940000

EBT = 2050000 - (2940000 * 0.091)   =  $1782460

Net Income = 1782460 - (1782460 * 0.4) = $1069476

Earnings per share = (1069476 - 201000) / 140000   =  $6.203 per share

d. 45% debt

Total debt = 9,800,000 * 0.45 = 4410000

EBT = 2050000 - (4410000 * 0.121)   =  $1516390

Net Income = 1516390 - (1516390 * 0.4) = $909834

Earnings per share = (909834 - 201000) / 111000   =  $6.386 per share

e. 60% debt

Total debt = 9,800,000 * 0.60 = 5880000

EBT = 2050000 - (5880000 * 0.152)  =  $1156240

Net Income = 1156240 - (1156240 * 0.4) = $693744

Earnings per share = (693744 - 201000) / 75000   =  $6.570 per share

insens350 [35]

Answer:

d. $13,575

Explanation:

The cost of the equipment includes all the cost incurred to bring the equipment to a state where it becomes available for use.

These costs are the cost of the equipment, sales tax, freight, repairs during installation and installation cost.

Therefore,

Cost of the equipment = $12,000 + $800 + $200 + $350 + $225

                                       = $13,575

The right option is d. $13,575.

If a finance lease contains a bargain purchase option, the lessee should amortize the leased asset: Multiple Choice Over the ter
Finger [1]

Answer:

Over the economic life of the asset.

Explanation:

An asset obtained under a financial lease must be depreciated in the same way as the company would depreciate any other similar fixed asset. E.g. a leased truck should be depreciated similarly to other trucks owned by the company.

In a financial lease, the lessor amortizes the asset's value, while the lessee depreciates the assets as common fixed assets (a lessee doesn't amortize).
