Firm Y has issued 500 million shares of stock at $1 par value and $200 millino in additional paid in capital. Retained earnings
aniked [119]

Answer:

Return on equity = 17.46%

Explanation:

DATA:

Issued share capital = $500m

Additional Paid-in capital = $200 million

Retained Earnings = $5.6 billion

Net Income = $1.1 billion

Return on Equity = ?

Solution

Return on equity can be calculated by dividing net income in total shareholder's equity

NOTE: ALL THE WORKINGS ARE IN 1000's

Return on equity = Net Income / Shareholder's Equity

Return on equity = 1,100,000 / (500,000 + 200,000 +5,600,000)

Return on equity = $1,100,000/6,300,000

Return on equity = 17.46%

Dimeback, Inc., is obligated to pay its creditors $7,400 during the year. Required: (a) What is the market value of the sharehol
Serjik [45]

Answer:

a.  $3,400

b. $0

Explanation:

As we know

Total assets = Total liabilities + owners equity

a. In the first case

The shareholder equity would be

= Total assets - total liabilities

= $10,800 - $7,400

= $3,400

b. In the first case, the shareholder equity would be zero as it should not be negative. The negative value would be

= Total assets - total liabilities

= $6,500 - $7,400

= -$900    

So it would be zero
