Answer:

1. Recognized gain = $54300

2. Realized gain = $45228

3. Adjusted basis of new asset = $150,000

Explanation:

The adjusted basis is the net cost of an asset after it has had depreciation deductions and/or capital expenditure increments. In other words, its actual worth at that particular point in time.

The amount realized is the fair market value and the sum of any money received at the sale of an asset.

1. A recognized gain or loss is the difference between the amount realized from the sale of the asset and the asset's adjusted basis on the time of its sale. A positive figure proves to be a gain and a negative figure proves to be a loss. In other words, when an asset is sold for a price higher than what it is actually worth at the time of sale, it is a recognized gain whilst if it is sold for a price lower than what its net cost is, it is a recognized loss.

In the current scenario:

The amount realized from the sale of the asset is $151,200.

Adjusted basis = Cost basis + capital improvements

Hence, $86,750 + $10,150 = $96900

Recognized gain/loss = $151,200 - $96900 = $54300

Due to the fact that it is a positive figure, i.e. amount realized at sale of asset is higher than the adjusted basis, it is a recognized gain.

2. A realized gain is the amount of <em>actual money</em> earned at sale. It does not simply look at the income from sale, but also takes into account any expenses that were present at the time of sale and deducts these.

In this case, there was an expense of the sale of $9072.

Hence, amount realized from sale of asset is $151200 - $9072 = $142128

Realized gain = $142128 - $96900 = $45228

3. Adjusted basis of new residence

The new residence has not had any capital increments. Hence, the adjusted basis is the same as the cost i.e. $150,000.

walmart and the home depot emphasize consistently low prices rather than periodic discounts with a retail pricing strategy calle
Dvinal [7]

Walmart and Home Depot emphasize consistently low prices and eliminate most of the markdowns with strategy called everyday low pricing.

<h3>What is everyday low price?</h3>

Everyday low price is a pricing strategy that assures customers of a cheap price all the time without forcing them to wait for discount price occasions or comparison shop. In addition to saving retail businesses the time and money required to mark down prices during sales, EDLP is also thought to increase customer loyalty. An EDLP retailer's price will typically fall between a high-low retailer's discounted price and its non-discounted price. It is typical for rival shops to divide the market into segments using various pricing heuristics. The segments are made up of two distinct groups of consumers with various buying habits for both final purchases and pre-purchase research. They are prepared to conduct research to find discounts and to stockpile goods when deals are available.

Scampini Technologies is expected to generate $25 million in free cash flow next year, and FCF is expected to grow at a constant
Feliz [49]

Answer:

The stock’s value per share is $10.42

Explanation:

For:    

FCF1 = Expected cash flow of the firm

        = $25 million  

WACC = 10%    

g = 4%    

Firm value = FCF1/(WACC - g)    

                  = 25,000,000/(0.10 - 0.04)    

                  = $416,666,666.67    

We know that there is no debt & preferred stock, so the firm value will be equal to Equity value :

Firm value = Equity value

                 = $416,666,666.67

stock value per share = Equity Value/No. of share outstanding

                                     = $416,666,666.67/40,000,000

                                     = $10.42 per share

Therefore, The stock’s value per share is $10.42
