Anika [276]

Answer:

With respect to the employment-at-will doctrine, this is "An exception based on public policy"

Explanation:

Under the public-policy exception to employment at will, an employee is wrongfully discharged when the termination violates an explicit, well-established public policy of the state. For example, in most states, an employer can't terminate an employee for filing a workers' compensation claim after being injured on the job, or for refusing to engage in illegal activity at the request of an employer.

Public policy may be found in a state constitution, statute, administrative rule, or other state policy. The public-policy exception is the most commonly accepted exception, recognized in the vast majority of states.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Digital Fruit

The expected market price of the common stock after the announcement is:

$20 per share.

Explanation:

Outstanding number of shares = 40 million

Market price of outstanding shares = $20 a share

Total market capitalization = $800 million

Debts introduced = $310 million

Market capitalization after the debt issue = $490 million ($800 - 310 million)

Number of shares bought back = $310 million /$20 = 15,500,000

Outstanding number of shares after the buy-back = 40 million minus 15.5 million

= 24,500,000 shares

Expected market price of the common stock after the announcement

= $490,000,000/24,500,000

= $20 per share

ra1l [238]

Question:

The Stanton Stationery Shoppe wants to acquire The Carlysle Card Gallery for $450,000. Stanton expects the merger to provide incremental earnings of about $70,000 a year for 10 years. Carol Stanton has calculated the marginal cost of capital for this investment to be 8%. Conduct a capital budgeting analysis to determine whether she should purchase The Carlysle Card Gallery.

Answer:

Capital Budgeting Analysis is a process of evaluating how we invest in capital assets; i.e. assets that provide cash flow benefits for more than one year.

An organization has to take many decisions regarding the expansion of business and investment. To do that, they will require the help of NPV method and base its decision on the same.

Net present value is used in Capital budgeting to analyze the profitability of a project or investment. It is calculated by taking the difference between the present value of cash inflows and present value of cash outflows over a period of time.

As the name suggests, net present value is nothing but net off of the present value of cash inflows and outflows by discounting the flows at a specified rate.

From the question the following are given:

  1. Capital Expenditure = $450,000
  2. Useful life of expenditure = 10 years
  3. Annual return from expenditure = $70,000
  4. Marginal cost of Capital = 8%

Step 1:                                  

It's formula is given as:

Formula for NPV

NPV = (Cash flows)/( 1+r)i

<em>Where</em>

i- Initial Investment

Cash flows= Cash flows in the time period

r  = Discount rate

i = time period

Computing with a spreadsheet, the Net Present Value of the Investment is given at $ 19,706.

Kindly see attached spreadsheet.

Judgement: Since the NPV is positive the investment is profitable and hence Nice Ltd can go ahead with the expansion.

Cheers!
