Answer:
$353,800
Explanation:
Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities
where,
CA = $146000 + $189000 + $155000 + $94800 = $584,800
CL = $206000 + $25000 = $231,000
therefore,
Working Capital = $584,800 - $231,000 = $353,800
Answer:
B, Indirect incentive
Explanation:
An incentive is anything that motivates an individual to behave in a certain way. An incentive could range from money to many other things and it is the reason why an individual acts in a certain way.
For example, salary and bonuses are incentives for workers. This makes the worker work better and harder and more efficiently because he/she knows that there is something to encourage him for doing his/her work diligently.
Incentive can be direct or indirect as in the case of the above question.
In the case of the above question, a generous disability insurance can motivate workers to falsely claim to be disabled. This means that the financial implication of the insurance package for disability is most likely the only reason for workers to claim false disability.
Cheers.
Answer:
$120 billion
Explanation:
Economy operating at $300 billion above its natural level of output.
Marginal propensity to consume, MPC = 3/5 = 0.6
For closing this expansionary gap, the government have to decrease its spending by the amount calculated as follows:
Spending multiplier:
= 1/ (1 - MPC)
= 1/ (1 - 0.6)
= 1/ 0.4
= 2.5
Hence, the government spending reduces by
= Expansionary gap ÷ Spending multiplier
= $300 ÷ 2.5
= $120 billion
Answer:
- Stock is overpriced/ overvalued.
- Sell if you own it.
- Don't buy if you don't.
Explanation:
Use CAPM to find the required return on the stock:
Required return = Risk free rate + beta * ( Market return - risk free rate)
= 2.5% + 1.3 * (7% - 2.5%)
= 8.35%
Price based on Constant Dividend Growth Model (CDGM):
Price = Next dividend / (Required return - growth rate)
Next dividend = 1.40 * ( 1 + 4%)
= $1.456
Price = 1.456 / (8.35% - 4%)
= $33.47
<em>Stock is selling for $35. It is overvalued. Don't buy the stock. Sell if you have the stock. </em>
Answer:
$60 million
Explanation:
The computation of the value of operations after the repurchase is shown below:-
Total corporate value = Value of operation + marketable securities
(5 × $15 million) = Value of operation + $15 million
$75 million = Value of operation + $15 million
Value of operation = $75 million - $15 million
= $60 million
We simply applied the above formula so that the firm's value of operations after the repurchase could come
