Answer:

Trina's Trikes have equity of 5.03 million

Explanation:

Debt to equity ratio is the rate of debt as compared to equity of the firm.

We can calculate the amount of equity by using formula of debt to equity

Debt to equity = Total Debt / Total equity

1.83  = 9.2 million / Total equity

Total Equity = 9.2 million / 1.83

Total Equity = 5.03 million

Eric receives a portion of his income from his holdings of interest-bearing U.S. government bonds. The bonds offer a real intere
MArishka [77]

Solution :

Given :

The bonds offer a \text{real interest rate} of 4.5% per year

Tax rate = 10% = 0.10

Inflation rate = 2

\text{Nominal interest rate} = \text{real interest rate} + \text{inflation rate}

\text{Nominal interest rate} = 2 + 4.5

                                   = 6.5

\text{After tax nominal rate} = \text{Nominal interest rate} $\times (1-\text{tax rate})$

\text{After tax nominal interest rate} = $6.5 \times (1-0.10)$

                                                  $=6.5 \times 0.90$

                                                 = 5.85

After tax real interest rate = \text{after tax nominal rate} - \text{inflation rate}

                                           = 5.85 - 2.0

                                            = 3.85

\text{Inflation rate} = 7.0

\text{Real interest rate = 4.5}

\text{Nominal interest rate} = \text{real interest rate} + \text{inflation rate}

                                   = 7 + 4.5

                                  = 11.5

\text{After tax nominal interest rate} = \text{Nominal interest rate} $\times (1-\text{tax rate })$

                                                  $=11.5 \times (1 - 0.10)$

                                                  $=11.5 \times 0.90$

                                                = 10.35

\text{After tax nominal interest rate} = 11.5 x (1 - 0.10)

                                          = 11.5 x 0.90

                                         = 10.35

\text{After tax nominal interest rate} = \text{after tax nominal rate} - \text{inflation rate}

                                           = 10.35 - 7.0

                                          = 3.35

Putting all the value in table :

\text{Inflation rate}    Real interest  Nominal interest  After tax nominal  After tax  

                                  rate                rate               interest rate       interest rate

2.0                             4.5                  6.5                        5.85                   3.85

7.0                              4.5                11.5                         10.35                3.35

Comparing with the \text{higher inflation rate}, a \text{lower inflation rate} will increase the after after tax real interest rate when the government taxes nominal interest income. This tends to encourage saving, thereby increase the quantity of investment in the economy and the increase the economy's long-run growth rate.

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

$76,620.83

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows

Future Value (FV) = $100,000

Rate of interest = 10% yearly

Rate of interest (Rate) = 10%÷ 2 = 5% semiannually

Number of period (Nper) = 9 × 2 = 18

Face value = $100,000

Payment (pmt) = $100,000 × (6%÷2) = $3,000

By putting the value in excel present value formula, we get,

PV = $76,620.83

A customer has submitted a claim to have his cell phone replaced at no charge. However, the customer’s warranty expired 11 month
erica [24]

Answer:

(I)

b. Use the reasons-before-refusal plan.

(II)

a. Keep the refusal respectful, sensitive, and upbeat.

b. Disclose all reasons for the refusal.

d. Provide alternatives that encourage the customer to continue business with you.

Explanation:

  • In the first case, the best strategy to adopt is that of presenting the "reasons-before-refusal" plan. This means that before conveying a negative message to the client, you explain the reasons of why this message necessarily has to be like that. By reading the reasons first, the customer will be more likely to agree with your assessment of the situation.
  • In the second example, these are all strategies that you can use to ensure that the letter you are writing is kind and appropriate. In this letter, it is important to be respectful, sensitive and upbeat in order for the customer to know that you are taking his claim seriously. Moreover, you should be able to disclose all the reasons for the refusal so that the person is well-informed of the situation. Finally, you should be able to provide alternatives to the customer, as this might allow him to continue having business with you.
