Answer:

The correct word for the blank space is: buffer.

Explanation:

The indirect strategy of providing messages is implemented when <em>bad news</em> must be provided. Details are mentioned first to give the final idea at the end. This strategy might not attract the audience interest at first being this the reason why a <em>buffer </em>must be included. Buffers are meaningful segments that incentivize the audience to pay attention to the message following an initial interesting fact.

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

The related cash flows to Sean are as follows;

a. $424,000

b. $592,000

c.$399,808

d. $512,885

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate cash flows to Davis manufacturing given that debt is issues and equity is issued for a number of hour-week

We proceed as follows;

a. For a 40 - hour week and Debt is issued

Mathematically, the cash flow is calculated below as follows;

Cash Flow = EBIT - Interest on debt = $594,000 - ($1.7 million x 10%) = $424,000

b. For a 50 - hour week and Debt is issued

Mathematically, the cash flow is calculated as follows;

Cash Flow = EBIT - Interest on debt = $762,000 - ($1.7 million x 10%) = $592,000

c. For a 40 - hour week and Equity is issued

Mathematically, the cash flow is calculated as follows;

In this case, there will be no interest cost

The firm's value will be increased by the amount of infusion but ownership of sean will be diluted.

New ownership of Sean = $3.5 million / ($3.5 million + $1.7 million) = 0.67307692307

Mathematically, the cash flow is calculated as follows

Cash Flow to Sean = EBIT x new share = $594,000 x 0.67307692307 =  $399,808

d. For a 50 - hour week and Equity is issued

The calculation is as above and there is also no interest course

Cash Flow = EBIT x new share = $762,000 x 0.67307692307 =  $512,885

KINDLY NOTE EBIT IS EARNINGS BEFORE INTEREST AND TAXES

g "6. Financially, why would a company: (a) increase its dividend; (b) buy back some of its common stock shares; (c) pay down so
VikaD [51]

Answer:

(a) increase its dividend;

dividends are increased for two reasons:

  1. the company has excess cash and it doesn't have any possible investments on hand
  2. the board and upper management want to increase the stock price and higher dividends always result in higher stock prices, even if it is only in the short run.

(b) buy back some of its common stock shares;

  • the company has excess cash and the board and upper management believe that the stock price is too low.

(c) pay down some of its debt;

  • the company has excess cash and it considers that the cost of its debt is too high and it can get cheaper financing from other sources if needed.

(d) increase its use of internal financing;

  • the board and upper management considers that the company needs to invest in new or existing projects and they consider that the financing costs are too high. Also, on the long run if things work well, the stock price should increase.

(e) take the public firm private

  • the company has excess cash and the board and upper management believe that the stock price is too low. It is similar to (b) only on an extreme situation.
