Answer:

salvage value is $16,368.34

Explanation:

given data

initial cost = $182,730

annualized capital cost = $42,442

service life = 7 year

interest rate = 15%

solution

we get here first present value that is

annual value  = rate ×  \frac{present\ value}{(1 - (1+ r)^{-t})}       .................1

put here value and we get

42,442 = 15% ×  \frac{present\ value}{(1 - (1+ 0.15)^{-7})}

solve it we get

present value = $176,576.5343  

so

present value = initial investment + salvage value     ..............2

we take here present value and initial investment will be negative

-176,576.5343 = -182,730 + salvage value(p/f,15%,7)  

-176,576.5343 +182,730 = salvage value(p/f,15%,7)

6,153.465 = salvage value × 0.3759

salvage value = 16,368.34

Other things held constant, which of the following actions would increase the amount of cash on a companys balance sheet? Select
Leokris [45]

Answer:

Correct option is (c)

Explanation:

When the company repurchases common stock, it has to pay cash to the shareholders to gain rights on the stocks. So, cash decreases in this case.

Payment of dividend also decreases cash from balance sheet.

When company needs cash for investment or growth purpose, it issues common stock to raise funds, thereby increasing cash in the company's balance sheet.

When company gives more time to its debtors, receipt of cash is delayed thereby not increasing cash in balance sheet.

Purchase of new equipment will reduce cash balance.

So issue of new shares increase cash balance in balance sheet.
