Carlisle Enterprises, a specialty pharmaceutical manufacturer, has been losing market share for three years because several key

patents have expired. Free cash flow to the firm is expected to decline rapidly as more competitive generic drugs enter the market. Projected cash flows for the next five years are $8.5 million, $7 million, $5 million, $2 million, and $0.5 million. Cash flow after the fifth year is expected to be negligible. The firm’s board has decided to sell the firm to a larger pharmaceutical company that is interested in using Carlisle’s product offering to fill gaps in its own product offering until it can develop similar drugs. Carlisle’s weighted average cost of capital is 15%. What purchase price must Carlisle obtain to earn its cost of capital?

Answer:

It should obtain at least:  $  17,363,986.04

Explanation:

we have several cash flow of different magnitude. As thisi s a finite sum of cash flow, we solve using present value of each lump sum using our WACC as discount rate:

\frac{Nominal}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV

\frac{8,500,000}{(1 + 0.15)^{1} } = PV

\frac{7,500,000}{(1 + 0.15)^{2} } = PV

\frac{5,000,000}{(1 + 0.15)^{3} } = PV

\frac{2,000,000}{(1 + 0.15)^{4} } = PV

\frac{500,000}{(1 + 0.15)^{5} } = PV

Year      Nominal Cash Flow Present Value

1   8,500,000.00      7,391,304.35

2   7,000,000.00    5,293,005.67

3   5,000,000.00       3,287,581.16

4   2,000,000.00      1,143,506.49

5      500,000.00       248,588.37

Total Present value  17,363,986.04

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

social welfare spending (education, hospitals, housing, schools, etc.).

Explanation:

This quote deals with the problem of the ever increasing cost of national defense versus the welfare of the citizens. The US spends more money on national defense than any other country in the world, around 37% of the total military budget of the world. It also represents 15% of the total federal budget and almost half of all discretionary spending.

That is a lot of money to be distributed among a small number of private firms. Usually Republicans tend to favor a large army, but Democrats never lower their budget either. The largest military contractors are Lockheed Martin, Boeing and Raytheon. They are all located in blue states, actually Maryland currently has a Republican governor but both their senators are democrats as well as most of the representatives. Boeing has its headquarters in Washington State and Raytheon in Massachusetts. These aren't blue states, they are indigo states.

But as the military budget increases and the power of military contractors also increases, who will dare to stop them. Military spending is much higher than welfare spending, even if you throw in Medicaid into the equation ($1.6 trillion vs $1 trillion).

The question really is, are guns more important than the well being of our citizens? I guess it depends who you ask.

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

$6,689

Explanation:

As we know that the inventory should be recorded at cost or net realizable value which ever is lower

Particulars      Item Units      Unit Cost         Net Realizable Value    LCNRV

Minolta              7                    $175                $157                              $157

Canon               11                    142                   176                               $142

Vivitar               14                    130                   111                                $111

Kodak               17                     120                  132                              $120

So, the amount of ending inventory is

= 7 units  × $157 + 11 units × $142 + 14 units × $111 + 17 units × $120

= $1,099 + $1,562 + $1,988 + $2,040

= $6,689
