Answer:

9.82

Explanation:

Given that,

Assets = $18 billion

Tax rate = 35%

Basic earning power (BEP) ratio = 12%

Return on assets (ROA) = 7%

BEP = EBIT ÷ Total Assets

12% = EBIT ÷ $18 billion

EBIT = 12% × $18 billion

        = $2.16 billion

ROA = Net Income ÷ Total Assets

7% = Net Income ÷ $18 billion

Net Income = 7% × $18 billion

                   = $1.26 billion

Earning before tax:

= Net income ÷ (1 - tax)

= $1.26 ÷ (1 - 0.35)

= $1.26 ÷ 0.65

= $1.94 billion

Interest Expense:

= EBIT - EBT

= $2.16 billion - $1.94 billion

= $0.22 billion

Times interest earned ratio:

= EBIT ÷ Interest expense

= $2.16 billion ÷ $0.22 billion

= 9.82

sineoko [7]

Answer: 8.85%

Explanation:

GIVEN THE FOLLOWING ;

Municipal bond yield = 5.75%

After-tax rate = 35%

In other to produce the same after tax rate, What should be the yield of the synthetic company bond;

Assume yield on synthetic company bond = SC yield ;

We can connect our assumption using the mathematical relation below;

Municipal bond yield = after tax bond yield

5.75% = SC yield (1 - tax rate)

5.75% = SC yield (1 - 35%)

5.75% = SC Yield × 65%

SC yield = (5.75/65)%

SC yield = 0.08846%

SC yield = 8.85%

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

148.02 days

Explanation:

The computation of the cash conversion cycle is shown below:

As we know that

Cash conversion cycle is = Days inventory outstanding + days sale outstanding - days payable outstanding

where,

Number of days inventory outstanding is

= Average inventory ÷ cost of goods sold per day

= $75000 ÷ ($360,000 ÷ 365 days)

= 76.04 days

Number of days sales outstanding is

= Average account receivable ÷ Average sales per day

= $160,000 ÷ ($600,000 ÷ 365)

= 97.33 days

And, the number of days payable outstanding is

= Average accounts payable ÷ cost pf goods sold per day

= $25,000 ÷ ($360,000 ÷ 365)

= 25.35 days

So, the cash conversion cycle is

= 76.04 days + 97.33 days - 25.35 days

= 148.02 days
