The Morris Corporation has $300,000 of debt outstanding, and it pays an interest rate of 8% annually. Morris's annual sales are

$1.5 million, its average tax rate is 40%, and its net profit margin on sales is 4%. If the company does not maintain a TIE ratio of at least 4 to 1, then its bank will refuse to renew the loan, and bankruptcy will result. What is Morris's TIE ratio? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answer: 1.41

Explanation:

Given that,

Debt outstanding = $300,000

interest rate = 8% annually

annual sales = $1.5 million

average tax rate = 40%

net profit margin on sales = 4%

interest amount = 300,000 × 0.08

                          = $24,000

net profit = 4% of 1.5 million

                = $6,000

Profit before tax = \frac{6,000}{0.60}

                           = $10,000

earning before interest and tax = profit before tax + interest

                                                    = $10,000 + $24,000

                                                    = $34,000

TIE ratio = \frac{EBIT}{Interest}

              = \frac{34,000}{24,000}

              = 1.41

A situation in which both unemployment and inflation rates are high is known as ______.
faust18 [17]

Stagflation is a condition in which both the unemployment rate and the inflation rate are high. Stagflation is characterised by slower economic development, low employment rates, and increased inflation rates. Stagflation is the occurrence of low economic growth, high unemployment.

In terms of economics, stagflation, sometimes known as recession-inflation, is a state in which unemployment is consistently high, the economy is growing slowly, and the inflation rate is high or rising. When inflation and economic stagnation coexist, this is known as stagflation. The economy is in a state of stagnation due to rising unemployment.

The term "stagflation" was first used in the 1970s, a period of both high inflation and rising unemployment. Stagflation wasn't commonly acknowledged until the middle of the 20th century.

ou currently own 10 percent of the 3.0 million outstanding shares of Webster Mills. The company has just announced a rights offe
REY [17]

Answer: 9.09% ownership

Explanation:

Your current ownership of the shares in Webster Mills is 10% of 3 million.

That means that you own,

= 10% * 3 million

= 300,000 shares.

The new offering that the company is doing equates one right to each share of existing stock and is expected to raise $12 million in new financing at a cost of $40. The goal is to find out how many new shares this will add.

= 12,000,000/40

= 300,000 shares

This means that 300,000 new shares will be added.

There are already 3,000,000 shares outstanding and now there are 300,00 extra which would bring the total to,

= 3,000,000 + 300,000

= 3,300,000 outstanding shares.

Since you sold your rights then you still have shares but now your percentage of ownership will change because of the increase in outstanding shares.

Your ownership percentage is now,

= 300,000 shares (that you own) / 3,300,000 (new outstanding balance)

= 0.0909

= 9.09%

Your new ownership position is that you own 9.09% of Webster Mills.

insens350 [35]

Answer:

The correct solution is "6.09%".

Explanation:

Given:

Nominal rate,

= 6%

or,

= 0.06

As we know,

⇒ EAR = [(1+\frac{APR}{m} )^m]-1

By substituting the values, we get

             =[(1+\frac{0.06}{2} )^2]-1  

             =[(1+0.03 )^2]-1

             =1.0609-1

             =6.09 (%)

Anon25 [30]

When businesses raise the price of a needed product or service after a natural disaster, this is known as price gouging. Price gouging is something that businesses do after a natural disaster when they know consumers are going to need a specific product or service so they raise the price because they know people are going to buy it anyways. An example of this is when they raise gas prices after a natural disaster, knowing people still need gas.

Most economists believe that in the long run, changes in the money supply Group of answer choices affect nominal but not real va
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

affect nominal but not real variables. This view that money is ultimately neutral is consistent with classical theory.

Explanation:

This idea is held by classical economists (not by most economists) since they believe in the quantitative theory of money:

MV = PQ

  • M = quantity of money
  • V = velocity of money
  • P = price level
  • Q = quantity of goods

Classical theory was abandoned 90 years ago (according to classical theory, recessions were not possible and couldn't exist, but then the Great Depression came and the impossible became true). Neo-classical or monetarists appeared in the 1960s, and lately, neo-neo-classical appeared with George W. Bush. The problem with the quantitative theory is that it needs the following things to be true in order to hold, and empirical evidence over the last 90 years showed that none of them are true:

  1. the velocity of money has to be constant (AND IT IS NOT CONSTANT)
  2. real output is independent on money supply (NOT TRUE)
  3. causation goes from money to prices (MODERN ECONOMISTS BELIEVE IT IS THE OTHER WAY)
