Rudik [331]

Answer: c) $62.11

Explanation:

Value of stock = Next Dividend / (Required return - Growth rate)

First calculate the growth rate;

= Return on Equity * Retention ratio

= 15% * 50%

= 7.5%

Next Dividend = 2.60 * ( 1 + growth rate)

= 2.60 * 1.075

= $2.795

Value of stock = 2.795/ (12% - 7.5%)

= $62.11

Assuming that the current interest rate is 6 percent, compute the present value of a five-year, 5 percent coupon bond with a fac

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

PV when interest rate is 6% = $957.88

PV when interest rate is 7%= $918

PV when interest rate is 5%= $1,000

Explanation:

The price of a bond is equivalent to the present value of all the cash flows that are likely to accrue to an investor once the bond is bought. These cash-flows are the periodic coupon payments that are to be paid annually and the par value of the bond that will be paid at the end of 5 years.

During the 5 years, there are 5 equal periodic coupon payments that will be made. Given a par value equal to $1,000, in each year, and a coupon rate equal to 5% the annual coupon paid will be = $50. This stream of cash-flows is an ordinary annuity.

The PV of the cash-flows = PV of the coupon payments + PV of the par value of the bond

Assuming the current interest rate is 6 percent

PV =50*PV Annuity Factor for 5 periods at 6%+ $1,000* PV Interest factor with i=6% and n =5

= $50*\frac{[1-(1+0.06)^-^5]}{0.06}+ \frac{1,000}{(1+0.06)^5}$ = $957.88

The bond sells at a discount.

Assuming the current interest rate is 7 percent

PV =50*PV Annuity Factor for 5 periods at 7%+ $1,000* PV Interest factor with i=7% and n =5

= $50*\frac{[1-(1+0.07)^-^5]}{0.07}+ \frac{1,000}{(1+0.07)^5}$ = $918

The bond sells at a discount.

Assuming the current interest rate is 5 percent

PV =50*PV Annuity Factor for 5 periods at 5%+ $1,000* PV Interest factor with i=5% and n =5

= $50*\frac{[1-(1+0.05)^-^5]}{0.05}+ \frac{1,000}{(1+0.05)^5}$ = $1,000

The bond sells at par

On December 31, Strike Company sold one of its batting cages for $20,084. The equipment had an initial cost of $223,162 and had

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Loss on disposal = $2232

Explanation:

To calculate the amount of gain or loss on sale, we must first calculate the net book value or NBV of the asset. The net book value is the difference between the cost of the asset and the accumulated depreciation. The formula for NBV is as follows,

NBV = Cost - Accumulated depreciation

NBV = 223162 - 200846

NBV = 22316

If the sales proceeds are more than the NBV of the asset, the asset is sold on gain and vice versa.

Loss on disposal = 20084 - 22316 = - $2232 or$2232 loss
