Duffert Industries has total assets of $940,000 and total current liabilities (consisting only of accounts payable and accruals)

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

ROE = 13.04%

ROIC = 7.83%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Total assets = $940,000

Total current liabilities = $130,000

Interest rate on its debt = 8%

Tax rate = 40%

The firm's basic earning power ratio = 14%

Debt-to capital rate = 40% = 0.40

Now,

Basis earning power = EBIT ÷ Total Assets

EBIT = Basis earning power × Total assets

= 14% × $940,000

= $131,600

Total Assets = Total Debt + Total Equity + Total Current Liabilities

$940,000 = Total Debt + Total equity + $130,000

Debt + Equity = $940,000 - $130,000

= $810,000

Debt to capital ratio = Debt ÷ [ Debt + Equity ]

0.40 = Debt ÷ $810,000

Total Debt = $324,000

Thus,

Debt + Equity = $810,000

$324,000 + Equity = $810,000

Equity = $810,000 - $324,000

= $486,000

Interest = 8% of Debt

= 0.08 × $324,000

= $25,920

Taxes = 40% of [ EBIT - Interest ]

= 0.40 × ($131,600 - $25,920 )

= $42,272

Therefore,

ROE = [ EBIT - interest - Taxes ] ÷ Equity

= [$131,600 - $25,920 - $42,272 ] ÷ $486,000

= 0.1304

= 13.04%

ROIC = [ EBIT - interest - Taxes ] ÷ Total capital

= [$131,600 - $25,920 - $42,272 ] ÷ [Debt + Equity]

= [$131,600 - $25,920 - $42,272 ] ÷ $810,000

= 0.0783 = 7.83%

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

350,000

And if done per unit, $3.50

Explanation:

Both sales and variable cost are dependent on the number of units sold.

The sales less the variable cost gives the contribution margin. The contribution margin less the fixed cost gives the net operating income.

The target cost of the product is the difference between the selling price and the anticipated profit.

Target cost per unit

= $6.00 - $2.50

= $3.50

Total Target cost = $3.50 * 100,000

= $350,000

A municipal bond is paying a 6% annual yield. An equivalent risk corporate bond is paying 7%. Investors with a tax rate of ____

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The correct answer is 25%

Explanation:

To calculate the value of the tax rate to decide on the municipal bond, we must take the information of the annual yield minus the expenses associated with this product, on the interest of the corporate bond:

Tax Rate = 1 - (0.0525 / 0.0700) = 25%

In this way, 25% or more, is a percentage of the tax rate that can make them decide on the municipal bond option.
