Answer:

b.The IRR is equal to 25.85%

Explanation:

Firstly we are given that i consider investing $100000 which will in this problem be our Cinitial which is the initial investment for the project.

Then now given the risk of this project, my cost of capital is 20% so then we will compare this to the IRR and see if i can accept the project or not if the cost of capital is greater than the IRR than its not good to invest on the project but if the cost of capital is less than the IRR then the this will be a good investment as the cost of capital also checks the opportunity cost.

The future payment cash flows which is $500000 so we will use the following formula:

NPV = (cash flow)/(1+IRR)^n     - initial investment

so we find the present value of the cash flow of the investment and subract the initial investment which will give us a zero cause the present value of the cash flow is equal to the initial investment therefore( n is the period of cash flows):

0= $500000/(1+IRR)^7    - $100000 transpose the initial investment and solve for IRR.

$100000(1+IRR)^7= $500000 then divide both sides by $100000

(1+IRR)^7 =  5          then find the 7nth root of both sides to eliminate the exponent of 7

1+ IRR = \sqrt[7]{5}

1+IRR = 1.258498951 then subtract 1 both sides to solve for IRR

IRR = 0.258498... then multiply by 100 as IRR is a percentage

IRR= 25.85 % rounded off to two decimal places which is the answer b

On January 1, 2017, MM Co. borrows $350,000 cash from a bank and in return signs an 4% installment note for five annual payments
frez [133]

Answer:

a. Journal entry to record the issue of notes

Date           Account Title & Explanation   Debit $        Credit $

Jan 1          Cash                                           350,000

                 Notes Payable                                                350,000

                  (To record the issue of notes payable)

b. Calculation of Interest Expenses

                      Particulars                           Amount $

Beginning balance of loan payment         350,000

Annual interest rate                                          4%

Interest expenses                                         14,000

Hence the interest expenses = $14,000

Principal amount is calculated as the difference between the annual payment and the interest expenses as seen below

                   Particulars                           Amount $

Annual payment                                      96,590

Less: Interest expenses                          14,000

Principal Payment                                  82,590

Hence, the principal payment =$82,590

ABC Corp. has just paid a dividend of $0.26. ABC has an annual required return of 12%.
Elis [28]

Answer:

a. If dividends are annual and expected to be constant, what is the intrinsic value (fair price) of ABC stock?

P₀ = $0.26 / 12% = $2.16667 = $2.17

b. What is ABC's dividend yield?

$0.26 / $2.17 = 12%

c. From now on, assume that the dividend of 0.26 was a quarterly dividend. What is the quarterly discount rate?

12% / 4 = 3%

d. What is the intrinsic value if dividends are constant and quarterly?

P₀ = $0.26 / 3% = $8.66667 = $8.67

e. We now think that dividends will grow by 0.3% from quarter to quarter. The firm just paid the quarterly dividend of 0.26. What is the intrinsic value of ABC stock?

P₀ = ($0.26 x 1.003) / (3% - 0.3%) = $9.6585 = $9.66

f. A different analyst thinks that ABC's dividends will grow by 5% for the next 4 quarters, and then grow by 0.3% thereafter. What is the intrinsic value?

Div₀ = $0.26

Div₁ = $0.273

Div₂ = $0.287

Div₃ = $0.301

Div₄ = $0.316

Div₅ = $0.317

terminal value in 4 quarters = $0.317 / (3% - 0.3%) = $11.74

P₀ = $0.273/1.03 + $0.287/1.03² + $0.301/1.03³ + $0.316/1.03⁴ + $11.74/1.03⁴ = $0.265 + $0.271 + $0.275 + $0.281 + $10.43 = $11.522

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

A) November 30

Explanation:

Based on accrual principle of accounting, revenue is recognized when it is earned and not necessarily when cash is received.

Revenue is said to be earned when the obligation of the delivery of service or goods sold has been met.

As such, where a company accepts a customer's order on November 30 and immediately delivers the goods to the customer, revenue is said to be earned (and will be recognized ) on the day of delivery.
