Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The initial purchase of the land and the associated costs of opening up mining operations will cost​ $100 million today. The mine is expected to generate​ $16 million worth of ore per year for the next 12 years. At the end of the 12th year Rearden will need to spend​ $20 million to restore the land to its original pristine nature appearance.

We need to sum each cash flow until the total initial investment is paid:

Number of years= 100,000,000/16,000,000= 6.25 years

To be exact:

0.25*365= 95 days

It will take 6 years and 95 days to recover the initial investment.

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

correct option is c. $1,364

Explanation:

given data

purchases house = $174,000

cost of the home = $100,000

cost of the land = $74,000

because home only residential real property

and land is not depreciated assets

so here depreciation rate is 1.364 %

so that maximum depreciation deduction allowed is = $100,000 × 1.364

maximum depreciation deduction allowed = 1364

so correct option is c. $1,364

Requirement C

1. Cash flow to net income ratio:

It shows how much cash flows from operating activities during the year over a specific net income.

We know, Cash flow to net income ratio = \frac{Cash flow from operating activities}{Net Income}

Cash flow to net income ratio = \frac{19,200}{32,000}

Cash flow to net income ratio = 60%

2. Operating cash flow ratio:

It shows how much cash flows from operating activities during the year from the use of current liabilities.

We know, Operating Cash flow ratio = \frac{Cash flow from operating activities}{Current liabilities}

Operating Cash flow ratio = \frac{19,200}{30,000}

Operating Cash flow ratio = 64%

Note: Here, accounts payable is the only current liabilities as notes payable has a long-term value.
