CaHeK987 [17]

Answer: (a) $295 million

(b) $326 million

Explanation:

Given that,

Sales = $900 million during 2016

Cash = $871 million

Cost of goods sold = $280 million

Expenses for the year totaled = $325 million

Paid for Inventory = $375 million

Paid for everything else = $285 million

Beginning cash = $115 million

(a) Net Income = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Expenses for the year totaled

                        = $900 - $280 - $325

                        = $295 million

(b) Carter's cash balance at the end of 2016:

= Cash + Beginning cash - Paid for Inventory - Paid for everything else

= $871 + $115 - $375 - $285

= $326 million

FCF of last forecast = $88*(1+10%)^2 = $106.48

Gonzales Corporationʹs expected terminal enterprise value in year 2 = $106.48 * (1+4%)/(12%-4%) = $1382.24

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

The lump sum amount to be deposited should be $27,020.67

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Future value = $60,000

Time, t = 10 years

Interest rate, r = 8% = 0.08

Compounded monthly i.e number of periods n = 12

Now,

Future value = Amount deposited ×  \left( 1 + \frac{r}{n} \right)^{\Large{n \times t}}

Therefore,

on substituting the respective values, we get

$60,000 = Amount deposited ×  \left( 1 + \frac{0.08}{12} \right)^{\Large{12 \times 10}}

or

$60,000 = Amount deposited × ( 1.00667 )¹²⁰

or

$60,000 = Amount deposited × 2.220522

or

Amount deposited = $60,000 ÷ 2.220522

or

Amount deposited = $27,020.67

Hence,

The lump sum amount to be deposited should be $27,020.67
