Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

MIRR = 15.65%

so correct option is b. 15.65%

Explanation:

solution

We will apply here formula for amount that is

A = P × $(1+\frac{r}{100} )^n$ ..................1

here A is future value and P is present value and r is rate and n is time period

so here future value of inflows will be

future value of inflows = [ 300 × (1.1)³ ] + [ 320 × (1.1)² ] + [ 340 × (1.1) ] + 360

future value of inflows = $1520.5

and MIRR will be here

MIRR = $(\frac{future value of inflows}{present value of outflows})^{\frac{1}{time period}} - 1$

MIRR = $(\frac{1520.5}{850})^{\frac{1}{4}} - 1$

MIRR = 15.65%

so correct option is b. 15.65%

White raven [17]

Given:
Current ratio: 2.65
acid test ratio: 2.01
current liabilities: $45,000

Current ratio = current asset / current liabilities
2.65 = current assets / 45,000
2.65 * 45,000 = current assets
119,250 = current assets

Acid test ratio = (current assets - stocks) / current liabilities
2.01 = (current assets - stocks) / 45,000
2.01 * 45,000 = current assets - stocks
90,450 = current assets - stocks

119,250 - 90,450 = 28,800 is the dollar amount of merchandise inventory.

You purchase 150 shares for $70 a share ($10,500), and after a year the price rises to $80. Calculate the percentage return on y

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

57.14%

Explanation:

Missing word "25 percent."

Gain on the stock = (150*$80) - $10,500

Gain on the stock = $ 12,000 - $10,500

Gain on the stock = $1,500

If Margin requirement is 25%, The Margin = 10,500*25% = $2,625

Return on Investment = $1,500/$2,625 * 100 = 0.571429 * 100 = 57.1429% = 57.14%
