Answer:
PV of 1st option = $185,015.50
PV of 2nd option = $192,683.78
Explanation:
Computing the present value of the monthly payments, we use the formula 
Where PV = present value of the monthly payments
A = monthly salary
r = monthly interest rate = 6%/12 = 0.5% = 0.005
n = number of months = 24 months
PV of the 1st option, $8,200 monthly for the next 2 year
= $185,015.50.
PV of the 2ns option, $6,900 monthly + $37,000 signing bonus
= $155,683.78 + $37,000 = $192,683.78.
Answer:
The change in operating income for GM is that the operating income will increase by the amount of other pension costs less expected returns.
However, this change will not affect the net income, as all the items will still be accounted for, accordingly.
Explanation:
GM's pension service cost is the present value of the amount that the GM is required by law to set aside annually to meet its employees' pension-benefits obligations. The reason for the separation is that the service cost is a compensation cost, whereas other pension costs are financial costs and not compensation costs. By this separation, the operating income of GM will increase.
Answer:
(A) Payback period for the machine= 3.5 years
(B) Simple rate of return for the machine= 87.5%
Explanation:
Alesu corporation is considering purchasing a machine that would cost $283,850
The useful life is 5 years
The machine would reduce cash operating costs by $81,100 per year
The salvage value is $107,100
(A) The payback period for the machine can be calculated as follows
= cost/amount of cash flow
= 283,850/81,100
= 3.5 years
(B) The simple rate of return for the machine can be calculated as follows
First we calculate the depreciation expense
= 283,850-107,100/5
= 176,750/5
= 35,350
Annual incremental income= cost savings -depreciation expenses
= 283,850-35,350
= 248,500
Simple rate of return = annual incremental income/cost × 100
= 248,500/283,850 × 100
= 0.875 × 100
= 87.5%
Answer:
A. The difference between the net income the analyst expects the firm to generate and the required earnings of the firm.
Explanation:
Residual income measures an organisation's internal corporate performance by looking at the difference between the income geneated by the firm and the required minimum returns. It can be described as the excess of generated income over required earnings for the firm.
For personal Income, residual income represents the income an individual has left after deducting all personal expenses and all debts.
Based on the question, therefore, residual income will be the excess amount after a company's analysts' deduct the required earnings of the company from what the company generates.
