Dakota Trucking Company (DTC) is evaluating a potential lease for a truck with a 4-year life that costs $40,000 and falls into t

he MACRS 3-year class. If the firm borrows and buys the truck, the loan rate would be 10%. The cost of capital (WACC) for this company is also 10%. The truck will be used for 4 years, at the end of which time it will be sold at an estimated residual value of $10,000. The lease terms call for a $10,000 lease payment (4 payments total) at the beginning of each year. DTC's tax rate is 30%. Should the firm lease or buy? (Note: MACRS rates for Years 1 to 4 are 0.33, 0.45, 0.15, and 0.07.)

Sophie [7]

Paul White, the CFO of Crane Automotive, Inc., is putting together this year's financial statements. He has gathered the followi
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer: $170,421

Explanation:

Using the Accounting equation;

Assets = Liabilities + Equity

Assets = Cash + Inventory + Goodwill and other assets + Net plant and equipment + Accounts receivable + Other current assets

= 23,015 + 212,300 + 78,656 + 713,500 + 141,258 + 11,223

= $1,179,952

Equity

= Common stock + Retained earnings

= 313,000 + 512,159

= $‭825,159‬

Liabilities = Assets - Equity

Current Liabilities + Long term debt = Assets - Equity

Long term debt = Assets - Equity - Current Liabilities

= 1,179,952 - ‭825,159‬ - (163,257 + 21,115)

= $170,421

2-a. Refer to the original data. How much will net operating income increase (decrease) per month if the company uses higher-qua
Vadim26 [7]

The original data is :

Data for Hermann Corporation

                                          Per unit     Percent of sales

Selling price                         $ 75              100%

Variable expenses                  51                 68

Contribution margin             $ 24               32%

The fixed expenses are $ 75,000 per month and the company is selling 4000 units per month.

Solution :

                                                     Present             Proposed

Sales                                             300000            375000

Less : Variable cost                      204000           275000

Contribution margin                     96000               100000

Less : Fixed expenses             <u>    75000     </u>      <u>     75000    </u>

Net income                                   21000                25000

The net operating income :      Increases          4000

Net operating income = increased sales Net income - current sales net income.

Therefore the higher quality component should be used.
