Answer:

in order for Cora's company to properly record this sale it must use the present value of the future payments.

First it must calculate the 8 equal payments (we could do it using a loan calculator or excel spreadsheet), and then it must calculate the present value of the payments either individually using PV = FV(n) / 1.08ⁿ or by using a table with the future value of the annuity.

Assume that a country with an open economy has a fixed exchange-rate system and that its currency is currently overvalued in the
olasank [31]

Answer: b. The quantity of the country's currency supplied exceeds the quantity demanded.

Explanation:

A country operating a fixed-exchange rate system would be actively trading its currency to ensure that it remains at a certain rate. If the currency is overvalued, it means that the currency is actually weak and is being propped up by the company's actions in the forex market.

A reason for the weakness would be that the supply is higher than the demand of the currency which means that, as per the rules of supply and demand, the currency is trading at a lower price, i,e., it is weak.

Using the dividend growth model, explain why a firm would be hesitant to reduce the growth rate of its dividends.
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

If a firm decreases its sustainable growth rate (g), the price of their stock will probably decrease. I will use the following example:

P₀ = Div₁ / (Re - g)

  • Div₁ = $2
  • Re = 12%
  • g = 5%

P₀ = $2 / (12% - 5%) = $28.57

if the growth rate g decreases to 2%, and the rest remains unchanged, then

P₀ = $2 / (12% - 2%) = $20

inventory Turnover and Days' Sales in Inventory The following financial statement data for years ending December 31 for Holland
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

                                            Year 2014           Year 2013

a) Inventory Turnover ratio 3.4 times  and   3.1 times

b) Number of days' sales in inventory 107.3 days and  117.7 days

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

As we know that

Inventory turnover ratio = Cost of goods sold ÷ Average inventory

where,

Average inventory

= (Beginning inventory + ending inventory) ÷ 2

For Year 20Y4 :

Average inventory = ($359,160 + $516,840 ) ÷2

= $438,000

And, the cost of goods sold is $1,489,200

So,

Inventory Turnover ratio

= $1,489,200 ÷ $438,000

= 3.4 times

For Year 20Y3 :

Average inventory = ($251,120 + $359,160) ÷ 2

= $305,140

And, the cost of goods sold is $945,934

So,

Inventory Turnover ratio

= $945,934 ÷ $305,140

= 3.1 times

Now

Number of days' sales in inventory = Number of days in a year ÷ Inventory Turnover ratio

For 20Y4

= 365 days ÷ 3.4

= 107.3 days

For 20Y3

= 365 days ÷ 3.1

= 117.7 days

Basically we applied the above formulas
