Answer:
Assume the interest rate used for discounting is 5%.
Then, the present value of all the future property tax payments is $200,000.
Explanation:
We have the annual property tax payment is calculated as: Purchased price * tax rate = 250,000 * 4% = $10,000.
The tax payment will form a perpetuity of $10,000 each ( that is: C = 10,000). We apply the formula for calculating present value of perpetuity with assumption that discount rate is 5% to come up with the answer as below:
PV = C/i = 10,000/5% = $200,000.
So, the answer is $200,000.
Answer:
Following are the solution to the given point:
Explanation:
Calculating the value of the effective interest rate:
Formula:
Calculating the value of Effective annual rate of interest:
Calculating the Amount in each semiannual payment:
Calculating the value of the total interest paid:
Answer: E) Cash
Explanation:
The Supplier should be most concerned with the Cash Ratio when granting credit. The Cash Ratio measures the amount of Cash in addition to the amount of Cash equivalent assets that the company has against it's current Liabilities in other to see if the company can be able to pay off it's Current Liabilities with it's current Cash and Cash Equivalents.
The Supplier will therefore be concerned with this ratio to see if the company is indeed able to pay back within 10 days before they can be able to grant credit.
Answer:
The company records the investment by the entry:
(D) debit Cash and credit Owner's Equity
Explanation:
Mr. Decker invested $20,000 in cash in his new business. He is the Owner of the company.
In the case, the company that he invested received cash from Mr. Decker.
The company will record the increasing in cash and increasing in Owner's Equity account by the journal entry:
Debit Cash $20,000
Credit Owner's Equity $20,000
Answer:
-5.14 for sam
-18.01% for dave
Explanation:
We first calculate for Sam
R = 7.3%
We have 2% increase
= 9.3%
We calculate for present value of coupon and present value at maturity using the formula for present value in the attachment
To get C
1000 x 0.073/2
= 36.5
time= 3 years x 2 times payment = 6
Ytm = rate = 9.3%/2 = 0.0465
Putting values into the formula
36.5[1-(1+0.0465)^-6/0.0465]
= 36.5(1-0.7613/0.0465)
36.5(0.2385/0.0465)
= 36.5 x 5.129
Present value of coupon = 187.20
We solve for maturity
M = 1000
T = 6 months
R = 0.0465
1000/(1+0.0465)⁶
= 1000/1.3135
Present value = 761.32
We add up the value of present value at maturity and that at coupon
761.32 + 187.20
= $948.52
Change in % = 948.52/1000 - 1
= -0.05148
= -5.14 for sam
We calculate for Dave
He has 20 years and payment is two times yearly
= 20x2 = 40
36.5 [1-(1+0.0465)^-40/0.0465]
Present value = 36.5 x 18.014
= 657.511
At maturity,
Present value = 1000/(1+0.0465)⁴⁰
= 1000/6.1598
= 162.34
We add up these present values
= 657.511+162.34 = $819.851
Change = 819.851/1000 -1
= -0.1801
= -18.01%
