Answer:

b) $12 million

Explanation:

The new Book Value of the firm at the bigining of next year is $12 million.

In the calulation of Net Pfofit, Interst on loan has already been deducted, so deducting it from the total calculation will be wrong.

hence, only dividend paid will be removed from the addition of the Book Value anf the Net profit.

Closing balance = Opening Book Value + Net Profit - Dividend Paid

Note - The Net Profit is already ne of interest on loan.

Closing balance = $10 + $5 - $3

Closing balance is $12

Answer:

See Explanation Below

Explanation:

Formula:

Shares is calculated by multiplying common stock by duration (in years)

1.

Given

Number of common shares issued and outstanding at December 31, 2015 = 2,000,000

Shares issued as a result of a 10% stock dividend on September 30, 2016 = 200,000

Calculating the weighted average number of common stocks:

Jan 1 2016 to Sept 30,2016:

First, note that there are 9 months between these two dates

So, the number of shares is calculated as: Common Shares * Duration (in years)

Number of Shares = 2,000,000 * 9/12

Number of Shares = 1,500,000

Jan 1 2016 to Sept 30,2016 - Adjusted

Given that there is a share issued as a result of 10% Stock dividend

Number of shares is calculated as 1,500,000 + the additional 10%

Number of Shares = 1,5000,000 + 10% * 1,500,000

Number of Shares = 1,500,000 + 150,000

Number of Shares = 1,650,000

Oct 1, 2016 to Dec 31, 2016

There are 3 months between these two dates

Common Shares between these dates = 2,000,000 + 200,000 --; This is gotten from outstanding shares of December 31, 2016 (2,000,000) and shares issued as a result of 10% Stock dividend (200,000)

Duration = 3/12 --- (by converting month to years)

So, Number of Shares = Common Shares * Duration

Number of Shares = 2,200,000 * 3/12

Number of Shares = 550,000

Total = 1,650,000 + 550,000

Total = 2,200,000 Shares

2.

Jan 1, 2017 to Mar 31, 2017

We'll still make use of the formula used in (1) above

Common Stocks * Duration (in years)

Between these dates, there are three months and common stock =2,200,000 --- as calculated in (1) above

So, Number of shares = 2,200,000*3/12 = 550,000

March 1,2017 to Dec31,2017

Given

Number of common shares issued and outstanding at December 31, 2017 = 4,200,000

Here, Common stocks = 4,200,000

Duration = 9/12

Number of Shares = 4,200,000*9/12 = 3,150,000

Total Number of Shares = 550,000 + 3*150,000 = 3,700,000

3.

Given

Weighted number of shares for 2017 = 3,700,000 --- calculated in (3) above

Weighted average number of shares = 2 * Weighted number of shares for 2017

Weighted average number of shares = 2 * 3,700,000

Weighted average number of shares = 7,400,000

4.

Jan 1, 2017 to Mar 31,2017.

Duration between these dates = 3/12 years

Number of common shares issued and outstanding at December 31, 2017 = 4,200,000

Number of Shares = 4200,000*3/12 = 1,050,000

April 1, 2017 to Dec 31, 2017

Duration = 9/12 years

Common Stocks = 4,200,000 * 2

Number of Shares = 4200,000*2*9/12 = 6,300,000

Total = 1,050,000 + 6,300,000 = 7,350,000
