Answer:

The amount to be paid for the contract today = $220,908.32

Explanation:

<em>The amount to be paid for the contract today will be equal to the present value of the annuity of $22,500 payable for 20 years discounted at a rate of 8% per annum.</em>

Present Value = A ×( 1 - (1+r)^(-n))/r

A- 22,500, r- rate of return - 8%, n -no of years 20 years

PV = 22,500 ×( 1-(1.08)^(-20) )/ 0.08

PV = 22,500 ×9.8181

PV = $220,908.32

The amount to be paid for the contract today = $220,908.32

Answer:

$56,950

Explanation:

We will calculate the operating cash flow as follow;

OCF = {[($55 - $28.62) 8,500 ] - $170,000} × (1 - 0.35) + ($62,000 × 0.35)

= {[$224,230] - $170,000} × 0.65 + ($21,700)

= $35,249.5 + $21,700

= $56,950

Therefore, the operating cash flow is $56,950

Xelga [282]

Answer:

a. The basic earnings per share of common stock for year ended January 31, 2020 is $3.56 per share

b. If Thrifty Co.’s preferred stock were convertible into common stock, it would be required to calculate Dluted EPS.

Explanation:

a. In order to calculate the BEPS we would have to use the following formula:

BEPS = Net income available to common stockholders / Weighted Avg. no. of common stock

Net income available to common stockholders=$573,650

Weighted Avg. no. of common stock = 100,000 + (30,000 x 3/12)

Weighted Avg. no. of common stock = 107,500

BEPS = Net income available to common stockholders / Weighted Avg. no. of common stock

BEPS = $573,650 / 107,500

BEPS= $3.56 per share

b. If Thrifty Co.’s preferred stock were convertible into common stock, it would be required to calculate Dluted EPS.
