Answer: $4.34
Explanation:
The net income for diluted earnings per share will be calculated as:
Net income: $2,500,000
Less: preferred dividend: $300,000
= $2,200,000
To calculate the number of shares goes thus:
Total shares of stock options = 10,000 × 20 = 200,000 shares
Proceeds = 200,000 × $29
= $580,000
Shares of treasury stock will be:
= $580,000/$30
= 193,333 shares
Net shares added will be:
= 200000 - 193333
= 6667
Tge total shares for the diluted earnings per share will now be:
= 500,000 + 6667
= 506,667
The diluted earnings per share:
= $2,200,000/506667
= $4.34
Answer:
Jameson's current stock price, P0 is $18.62
Explanation:
Required rate of return = Risk free rate + Beta*Market risk premium.
= 4.00% + 1.15*5.00 %
= 9.75 %
Current stock price, P0
= Expected dividend per share/(Required rate of return - Growth in dividends)
= (0.75 + 5.50%*0.75)/(0.0975 - 0.055)
= $18.62
Therefore, Jameson's current stock price, P0 is $18.62
Answer:
<u>A) conditions in the target industry allow for profits and return on investment that is equal to or better than that of the company's present business(es).</u>
<u>Explanation</u>:
Remember, the key word here is about whether diversification into a particular industry would likely increase shareholders value.
Thus, any company wanting to test this out would consider whether conditions in the target industry allow for profits and return on investment that is equal to or better than that of the company's present business(es).
This option is better because improved profits implies better shareholder value.
Answer: $13,020,000
Explanation:
Given that,
Tax rate = 30%
Total interest payment for the year just ended = $43,400,000
Interest Tax Shield = Tax rate × Total interest payment
= 30% × $43,400,000
= 0.30 × $43,400,000
= $13,020,000
Therefore, the interest tax shield is $13,020,000.
The answer could be any of these. This is not a fair question.
I believe that question is trying to get you to lean towards answer C because theoretically your family would know your character better than a bank might.
