Answer:

She is better off by $40,

Please kindly go through the explanation section for rest of the answers.

Explanation:

From the Question,

Grocery saving = 40%

Laptop saving = 2.5%

Absolute saving in grocery = $4

Absolute saving in Laptop =$10

Yes he should sacrifice 20 mins to save $10 since he does the same for less savings

Second case:

Since Ted is depositing money for only 6 months at 10% interest rate, he is giving up half his annual interest of (0.1*750)/2 = $37.5

Third case:

Interest accrued on student loan = 0.07*2000 = $140

Interest on credit card = $75 + (0.07*1500) = $180

She is better off by $40.

The following information is available for Cheyenne Corp..

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

(a) Earnings per share for 2022 and 2021 for Cheyenne are as follows:

Earnings per share for 2002 = $1.21

Earnings per share for 2001 = $1.10

(b) The current ratio and debt to assets ratio for each year are as follows:

Current ratio for 2002 = 2.40

Current ratio for 2001 = 1.25

Debt to assets ratio for 2002 = 29%

Debt to assets ratio for 2001 = 41%

(c) Free cash flow for each year are as follows:

Free cash flow for 2002 = $63,000

Free cash flow for 2001 = $44,000

Explanation:

(a) Compute earnings per share for 2022 and 2021 for Cheyenne. (Round Earnings per share to 2 decimal places, e.g. $2.78.)

These can be calculated using the following formula:

Earnings per share = (Net income - Preferred dividends) / Average shares outstanding ..................... (1)

Where;

Average common shares outstanding = (Common shares outstanding at beginning of year + Common shares outstanding at end of year) / 2

Using equation (1), we have:

Earnings per share for 2002 = (81,700 - 9,705) / ((42,000 + 77,000) / 2) = $1.21

Earnings per share for 2001 = (51,615 - 9,705) / ((31,700 + 44,500) / 2) = $1.10

(b) Compute the current ratio and debt to assets ratio for each year. (Round ratio answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25 and percentage answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 15%.)

These can be calculated using the following formula:

Current ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities ................... (2)

Debt to assets ratio = (Total liabilities / Total assets) * 100 .............. (3)

Using equation (2), we have:

Current ratio for 2002 = 56,880 / 23,700 = 2.40

Current ratio for 2001 = 39,625 / 31,700 = 1.25

Using equation (3), we have:

Debt to assets ratio for 2002 = (70,180 / 242,000) * 100 = 29%

Debt to assets ratio for 2001 = (84,870 / 207,000) * 100 = 41%

(c) Compute free cash flow for each year.

These can be calculated using the following formula:

Free cash flow = Net cash provided by operating activities - Expenditures on property, plant, and equipment .................(4)

Using equation (4), we have:

Free cash flow for 2002 = $91,700 - $28,700 = $63,000

Free cash flow for 2001 = $57,700 - $13,700 = $44,000
