Answer:

EPS will increase double from $12.5 per share to $25 per share as the buying back takes place.

Explanation:

As the firm tax rate is 0, we have the firm's net profit = EBIT - interest expenses = $1,500,000 - $250,000 = $1,250,000.

=> The firm's EPS before the buy back = 1,250,000/100,000 = $12.5

Since the buys back worth $2,500,000 or 50% of the market value of the firm, there is 50% of the shares is bought back which makes only 50,000 shares outstanding. Profit is unchanged this year, since the buy back and issuing of new debt takes place at the end of the reporting period, so interest expenses is not changed for the reporting period.

=> The firm's EPS after buy back = 1,250,000/50,000 = $25.

So, EPS will increase double from $12.5 per share to $25 per share as the buying back takes place.

Answer:

EPs befor buy-back 12.5

afer buy-back 22.5

Explanation:

<u>current earning per share:</u>

EBIT - interest - taxes = ent income

1,500,000 - 250,000 - 0 = 1,250,000

shares outstanding 100,000

<u>EPS </u>BEFORE BUY-BACK

EPS = \frac{income-preferred \: dividends}{outstanding \: common \: stock}

EPS = \frac{1,250,000}{100,000}

EPS 12.5

After buyback:

the company is buying 2,500,000 /5,000,000 = 50% of the shares

thus it wil drop from 100,000 to 50,000

Now, we solve for the additional interest expense using cross multiplication:

5,000,000 of debt generate 250,000 iunterest

so 2,500,000 will do 250,000 / 5,000,000 x 2,5000,000 = 125,000

Now we solve for net income:

1,500,000 EBIT - 250,000 orignal interest - 125,000 addional= 1,125,000

Last step new EPS

EPS = \frac{1,125,000}{50000}

EPS 22.5

Explanation:

It seems that Shelly is most likely experiencing culture shock. This is a set of feelings that occurs to most individuals when they move to a location that is very different than their home. Since Shelly moved from the US to China and the culture is completely different, it causes Shelly to not feel comfortable in this new location. Individuals experiencing culture shock experience many distinct feelings but ultimately adjust to the new environment and begin getting comfortable in this new location.

here are seven firms in the automobile industry. The market shares of the firms are 34​ percent, 21​ percent, 17​ percent, 9​ pe
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The answer is  "Option 4".

Explanation:

The Herfindahl-Hirschman Index formula:

HHI=s_{12} + s_{22}  + s_{32} + s_{42} +........ + s_{n2}

here sn is the firm n's share of the market proportion represented the society in general number instead of a decimal

Index Herfindahl-Hirschman:

= (34)^2 + (21)^2 + (17)^2 + 92 + 82 + 62 + 52\\\\= 1156 + 441 + 289 + 81 + 64 + 36 + 25\\\\= 2092

Index Herfindahl-Hirschman(Result of the merger, firms with profit margins of 6% and 5% provided market shares of respectively).

= (34)^2 + (21)^2 + (17)^2 + 92 + 82 + 112\\\\= 1156 + 441 + 289 + 81 + 64 + 36 + 121\\\\= 2188

The market with just an HHI of less than 1,500 is called a competitive industry, one on an HHI of 1,500 to 2,500 is called a moderately competitive store, and one on an HHI of 2,500 or higher is considered a highly potent store by us Justice department.

All businesses operate in a moderately crowded market, as well as a merger such as this reduces competition (increases chances of monopoly). Also as result, the Justice Dept may examine its merger but will most likely deny this because the Herfindahl-Hirschman index has risen.

Complainer in the workplace
Trava [24]
Hi There!

Complainer in the workplace?


There are days where employees seem to be complaining about everything. In many companies, misery loves company, and it's a big problem for small-business owners. It can bring down employee morale, and affect employee productivity and retention. Ultimately, it will trickle down to the customers—resulting in sub-par service and a decrease in sales.

Negativity is rampant in the workplace. According to Jim Harter, Gallup’s chief scientist for workplace management, 18 percent of U.S. employees are “actively disengaged,” and will complain about their companies.
