in Year 1 and $18,600 in Year 2. The toy will be discontinued after the second year. The discount rate assigned to the toy is 14.9 percent. Should the toy be produced? What is the IRR?

Answer:

NPV with a 14.9% discount rate: 6,329.06

The toy should be produced as the NPV is positive.

IRR = 26.65%

Explanation:

First we calculate for the NPV using the given discount rate of 14.9%

We will calculate the present value of each year cash inflow:

\frac{inflow}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Year 1 cash inflow: 47,500.00

time   1.00

rate  0.149

\frac{47500}{(1 + 0.149)^{1} } = PV  

PV   41,340.30

Year 2 cash inflow:  18,600.00

time   2.00

rate  0.149

\frac{18600}{(1 + 0.149)^{2} } = PV  

PV   14,088.76

Then, we add them and subtract the investment to get NPV

NPV = 14,088.76 + 41,340.3 - 49,100 = 6,329.06

The toy should be produced as the NPV is positive.

Now for the IRR

That is the rate at which NPV equals zero we can solve for this using the quadratic equation as there are only two cash flow:

Year 1 will discount at (1+IRR)

Year 2 will be discount at (1+IRR )^2

So we can express and recreate the quadratic formula:

18,600 X^2 + 47,500 X - 49,500 = 0

A = 18,600

B = 47,500

C = -49,100

x_1 = \frac{-b+\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac}}{2a}\\x_2 = \frac{-b -\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac}}{2a}

We can solve and get:

x1 =  0.78957

x2 = -3.3433

We take the positive value.

and now solve for IRR

\frac{1}{1+ IRR} = 0.78957\\IRR = \frac{1}{0.78957} -1

IRR = 0,2665121 = 26.65%

This will be the IRR for the project.

astra-53 [7]

Answer: D.  The company reissues the treasury stock it holds.

Explanation:

Earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Net Income by the weighted average number of shares that a company has outstanding. If the company reissues treasury stock, this would increase the number of average stock outstanding thereby increasing the denominator of the EPS equation which would have the effect of reducing the Earnings per share.

For instance, if a company had net income of $50 and common equity outstanding of $40, the EPS would be;

= 50/40

= $1.25

If the company reissues treasury stock of $30, the EPS would change to;

= 50/ (40 +30)

= $0.71

Suppose First Main Street Bank, Second Republic Bank, and Third Fidelity Bank all have zero excess reserves. The required reserv
dlinn [17]

Answer:

Change in Excess Reserves $1,350,000

Change in Required Reserves $450,000

Explanation:

Preparation of the table to show the effect of a new deposit on excess and required reserves

Based on the information given since the REQUIRED RESERVE RATIO is 25%, which means that First Main Street Bank will hold 25% of its initial deposit leading to INCREASE in the REQUIRED RESERVE by the amount of $450,000 (25%*$1,800,000) while the remaining 75% (100%-25%) will be the EXCESS RESERVES of the amount of $1,350,000 (75%*$1,800,000).

Hence:

Amount Deposited: $1,800,000

Change in Excess Reserves=$1,350,000

Change in Required Reserves= $450,000

Therefore the effect of a new deposit on excess and required reserves will be:

Change in Excess Reserves $1,350,000

Change in Required Reserves $450,000

aleksley [76]

Answer: 0.050

Explanation:

Mean = 18

USL = 18.6

LSL = 17.4

SD = 1.25

Cpk = Min{(mean - LSL / 3*sd), (USL - mean / 3*sd)}

= Min{ ( 18 - 17.4/ 3 * 1.25), (18.6 - 18 / 3 * 1.25)}

= Min { 0.05 0.05)

Cpk = 0.050
