Answer:

$13,000

Explanation:

Given that

The stock of the firm = $36,000

Invested amount in account receivable = $13,000

Invested amount in equipment = $11,000

So by considering the above information, the amount included in the initial project for net working capital is the account receivable i.e current assets minus current liabilities and the account receivable is come under the current assets so the same is to be included

lesantik [10]

Answer:

a. Current Stock Price is $ 30.67

b. Current Stock price using forecasted real dividend and a real discount rate is $ 69.00

Explanation:

a. The question belongs to dividend discount model. It is used to calculate intrinsic price of the stock. This model assumes that price of stock or share is equal to net present value of its future dividends.

Price of Stock =  (Current year Dividend x ( 1+ growth rate)) / (nominal cost of capital - growth rate)

Current year Dividend = $ 2

Nominal Cost of Capital = 10.25 % or .1025

Growth rate = 3.50 % or 0.0350

Price of Stock = ( $2 x (1 + 0.035) / (.1025 - .035))

Price of Stock =  $ 2.07 / ( .1025 - 0.0350) = $ 30.67  

b. Price of Stock = Current year Dividend + (Dividend x( 1+ growth rate)) / (real cost of capital - growth rate)

Real Cost of Capital = [ (1 + nominal cost of Capital) / ( 1 + inflation rate)-1 ]

Inflation rate = 3.50 % or .0350

Real Cost of Capital  = [ ( 1 + .1025) / ( 1 + .0350) - 1 ] = 0.0652 or 6.50 %

Price of Stock =(Dividend x ( 1 + growth rate)) / ( Real cost of Capital - Inflation rate)

Price of Stock = ($ 2 x ( 1 + 0.0350)) / (0.0650 - 0.0350)  

Price of Stock = $ 69

Two firms, A and B, each currently emit 100 tons of chemicals into the air. The government has decided to reduce the pollution a
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

20 more tons of pollution into the air, and Firm B will emit 100 fewer tons of pollution into the air.

Explanation:

It is given that :

Amount of tons of pollutants emitted by the two firms A and B earlier = 100 tons

Cost of pollutants by firm A = $ 200 per ton of pollutions

Cost of pollutants by firm B = $ 100 per ton of pollutions

Since the cost for eliminating the pollutants into the air is more for the firm A, the ticket is also more valuable for firm A. And therefore, firm A will buy all the tickets form firm B for an amount around $ 101 to $ 199. It will do so as to have a positive consumer and also to produce surplus.

So firm A will eliminate 20 tons of pollution and will use 80 ton capacity from the tickets. And for firm B, it will eliminate all 100 tons of pollutions.

Doss [256]

Answer:

total sales are the internal failure costs is 2%

Explanation:

given data

form to reduce errors =  $15,000

customer complaints = 75,000

Verifying = 30,000

Correcting errors = 60,000

Total = $180,000

sales = $3,000,000

to find out

total sales are the internal failure costs

solution

we know here that internal failture cost is express as

internal failture cost  = correcting error in form   ...........1

internal failture cost  =  $60000

and

internal failture cost as % of total cost is here as

internal failture cost to sale = \frac{internal\ failture\ cost}{sales}   .......2

internal failture cost to sale = \frac{60000}{3000000}

internal failture cost to sale = 2%

so total sales are the internal failure costs is 2%

Buchholz Corporation follows a moderate current asset investment policy, but it is now considering a change, perhaps to a restri
omeli [17]

Answer:

6.56%

Explanation:

1. Restricted policy where current assets are 15% of sales.

Sales = $400,000

Current assets = 0.15 * 400000 = $60,000

Total assets = Fix assets + Current assets = 100,000 + 60,000 = $160,000

Debt accounts for 50% of capital structure. Therefore 50% assets will be financed through debt.

Debt = 0.5 *160,000 = $80,000

Equity = Assets - Debt =$80,000

Interest on Debt = 10% * $80,000 = $8,000

EBIT = $35,000

Profit before tax = 35000 - 8000 = 27000

Tax = 25% of 27,000 = $6,750

PAT = $27,000-$6,750

= $20,250

ROE = 20,250/ 80000 = 25.31%

2. Calculations for relaxed policy where current assets are 25% of sales.

Sales = $400,000

Current assets = 0.25 * 400000 = $100,000

Total assets = Fix assets + Current assets = 100,000 + 100,000 = $200,000

Debt accounts for 50% of capital structure. Therefore 50% assets will be financed through debt.

Debt = 0.5 *200,000 = $100,000

Equity = Assets - Debt =$100,000

Interest on Debt = 10% * $100,000 = $10,000

EBIT = $35,000

Profit before tax = 35000 - 10000 = 25000

Tax = 25% of 25,000 = $6,250

PAT = 25000 - 6,250 = $18,750

ROE = 18750/ 100000 = 18.75%

The difference between the 2 ROEs = 25.31% - 18.75% = 6.56%

Therefore the difference in the projected ROEs between the restricted and relaxed policies is 6.56%
