Simpson Enterprises is considering a new project with revenue of $325,000 for the indefinite future. Cash costs are 63 percent o

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

net present value = 133808.82

Explanation:

solution

we find here present value of cash inflows that is

Cash inflows = $325,000

and

cash costs @63% = $204,750

so

cash flow before tax = 325,000 - 204,750 = $120,250

and Tax @21% = $25,252.5

so

Cash flow after tax will be = $120,250 - $25,252.5 = $94,997.5

Discounting factor is = 0.17

Present value of cash inflows = (cash flows after tax ÷ discounting factor)

Present value of cash inflows = $\frac{94997.5}{0.17}$

Present value of cash inflows = $558808.82

so

net present value = Present value of cash inflow - present value of cash outflows

put here

net present value = $558808.82 - $425,000

net present value = 133808.82

An uninterruptible power system used in a small production facility at Acme Manufacturing has a basis of $56,000 and is expected

Fed [463]

Answer:

The depreciation rate per hour is 0.402

The Book value is $25,046

Explanation:

In order to calculate the depreciation rate per hour of use we would have to calculate the following:

depreciation rate per hour=(basis- salvage value)/hours of use

depreciation rate per hour=($56,000-$5750)/125,000

depreciation rate per hour=0.402

To calculate the book value we would have to make the following calculation:

Book value=basis-(depreciation rate per hour*77,000 hours of operation)

Book value=$56,000-(0.402*77,000)

Book value=$25,046

A company borrowed $28,000 by signing a 180-day promissory note at 6%. The total to be paid at maturity of the note is: (Use 360

artcher [175]

Answer:

So maturity value will be equal to $282840

Explanation:

We have given borrowed amount = $28000

Signing day , that is note = 180

Total day in a year = 360 days

Interest rate = 6 %

So interest on the borrowed amount $=\frac{borrowed\ amount\times interest\ percent\ an\ amount\times note\ period}{days\ in\ year}=\frac{28000\times 6\times 180}{360}=$840$

So maturity value of the note = borrowed amount + interest on note period

= $28000+$840 = $28840

So maturity value will be equal to $282840

Which of the following statements regarding the direct and indirect methods of reporting cash flow from operating activities is

erica [24]

Answer:

a) although both methods result in the same net increase or decrease in cash for the year, net cash flow from operating activities will be different under the two methods

Explanation:

Using the indirect method, computation of cash flow from operating activities begins with net income as shown in the income statement. The FASB also permits both methods but has expressed a preference for the direct method and the direct method shows the specific cash inflow and outflows for each operating activities of the business.

This option that does not align with the differences between the 2 methods is that the cash flow reported under direct and indirect method for operating activities would always remain the same notwithstanding the method used.
