Answer:
E. $78
Explanation:
The computation of the net present value is shown below:
Net present value is
= Initial investment + year cash inflows ÷ (1 + discount rate)^number of years + year cash inflows ÷ (1 + discount rate)^number of years
= -$150 + $175 ÷ 1.15 + $100 ÷ 1.15^2
= $77.78
= $78
Hence, the correct option is E. $78
Answer:
$1,680,000
Explanation:
Based on the information given we were told that the fair value of the building was the amount of $1,680,000 which means that the amount that the company would record the building is the fair value amount of $1,680,000.
Therefore the amount that the company would record the building is $1,680,000.
Answer:
D. Earn short run economic profits
Explanation:
A cartel can be defined as a formal agreement reached (collusion) in an oligopolistic industry between two or more business firms that are saddled with the responsibility of producing goods and services in order to make price and output decisions such as price regulation, total level of output or supply, allocation of customers, market shares, territory allocation, division of profits, collusive bidding etc.
This ultimately implies that, when a group of independent firms in an oligopolistic industry collude by reaching a formal agreement to regulate supply, as well as manipulate or regulate prices, they do so to increase their profits and market dominance.
Hence, firms colluding earn short run economic profits.
Answer:
Risk-free rate = 3.5%
Market risk-premium = 6.9%
Cost of equity (Ke) = ?
Ke = Rf +β(Rm - Rf)
Ke = Rf + Market risk premium
Ke = 3.5 + 6.9
Ke = 10.4%
Cost of debt (Kd) = 5.4%
Market value of debt (D) = 12
Market value of equity (E) = 88
Market value of the company (V) = 100
WACC = Ke(E/) + Kd(D/V)(1-T)
WACC = 10.4(88/100) + 5.4(12/100)(1-0.40)
WACC = 9.152 + 0.3888
WACC = 9.54%
Explanation:
In this case, there is need to calculate cost of equity according to capital asset pricing model, which is risk-free rate plus market risk-premium.
Then, we will calculate the weighted average cost of capital, which equals cost of equity multiplied by the proportion of equity in the capital structure plus after-tax cost of debt multiplied by the proportion of debt in the capital structure. Since the proportion of debt in the capital structure is 12%(12/100), the proportion of equity will be 88%(88/100).
Answer:
$2,140
Explanation:
When a commercial substance exists in the course of the exchange of an old asset for a new one , the gain or loss on this assets is recognized,
Commercial substance can be said to exist when the exchange assets impact the future cash flow. The extended useful life of the involved assets in the question the the newly acquired asset through exchange support this.

Cost of the fixed assets = 52,025
Accumulated depreciation = 44,221
Book value = 7,804
Trade in allowance = 5,664
loss = 7,804 - 5664 = 2,140
