3 0

Answer:

b. the Federal Reserve System.

Explanation:

Initial margin refers to the deposit made by an investor with a broker, in order to open a margin account. The purpose of initial margin is security and collateral to ensure enough availability of cash in the trading account of the investor.

For instance an investor wants to purchase 4000 shares priced at 15$. In this case, he is supposed to deposit 50% of $60,000 i.e $30,000. The remaining $30,000 is contributed by the brokerage firm, regarded as borrowings on which the investor pays interest.

The initial margin limit is fixed by the Federal Reserve System.

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

a. 4 years and 4.22 years

b.  -$31,350 and $27,615

c. Project Nuts

Explanation:

a. The formula to compute the payback period is shown below:

= Initial investment ÷ Net cash flow

For project soup, it would be

= $600,000 ÷ $150,000

= 4 years

For project nuts, it would be

= $900,000 ÷ $213,000

= 4.22 years

b. The computation of the Net present value is shown below

= Present value of all yearly cash inflows after applying discount factor - initial investment

For project soup, it would be

= $568,650 - $600,000

= -$31,350

The present value is computed below:

= Annual cash flow × pvifa for 5 years at 10%

= $150,000 × 3.791

= $568,650

For project nuts, it would be

= $927,615 - $900,000

= $27,615

The present value is computed below:

= Annual cash flow × pvifa for 6 years at 10%

= $213,000 × 4.355

= $927,615

Kindly refer pvifa table

c. The project Nuts should be accepted as it has positive net present value.

Leona, whose marginal tax rate on ordinary income is 37 percent, owns 100 percent of the stock of Henley Corporation. This year,
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

First and foremost, it should be noted that there's a flat tax rate of 21% on the taxable income, therefore the after tax income will be:

= (1 - 21%) × $1 million

= 79% × $1 million

= $790,000

Therefore, the amount of the dividend payment is $790,000 which is given to Leona.

The after tax cash flow from the dividend receipt will be:

= $790,000 - (20% × $790,000)

= $790,000 - (0.2 × $790,000)

= $790,000 - $158,000

= $632,000

Therefore, the total tax by Henly and Leona will then be:

= $210,000 + $158,000

= $368,000.

This is 36.8% (368000/1 million) of the tax rate.
