rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Given that Honduras is a small economy in Central America, and it keeps a fixed exchange rate with the US, and capital is perfectly mobile, but interest rates are three percent in the US and six percent in Honduras, the explanation of the difference in these interest rates are as follows:

Honduras has a higher interest rate, meaning that its sovereign bonds pay higher values than the American ones, as well as its banks also pay higher interests on their investments compared to American banks.

This is so for a double reason: on the one hand, because the Honduran economy is less reliable than the American economy, which is larger and therefore more solvent and capable of overcoming eventual crises, with which the risk of default is less.

On the other hand, the Honduran economy is more dependent on foreign investment, so it must offer higher interest rates to attract such investments.

ra1l [238]

Question:

The Stanton Stationery Shoppe wants to acquire The Carlysle Card Gallery for $450,000. Stanton expects the merger to provide incremental earnings of about $70,000 a year for 10 years. Carol Stanton has calculated the marginal cost of capital for this investment to be 8%. Conduct a capital budgeting analysis to determine whether she should purchase The Carlysle Card Gallery.

Answer:

Capital Budgeting Analysis is a process of evaluating how we invest in capital assets; i.e. assets that provide cash flow benefits for more than one year.

An organization has to take many decisions regarding the expansion of business and investment. To do that, they will require the help of NPV method and base its decision on the same.

Net present value is used in Capital budgeting to analyze the profitability of a project or investment. It is calculated by taking the difference between the present value of cash inflows and present value of cash outflows over a period of time.

As the name suggests, net present value is nothing but net off of the present value of cash inflows and outflows by discounting the flows at a specified rate.

From the question the following are given:

  1. Capital Expenditure = $450,000
  2. Useful life of expenditure = 10 years
  3. Annual return from expenditure = $70,000
  4. Marginal cost of Capital = 8%

Step 1:                                  

It's formula is given as:

Formula for NPV

NPV = (Cash flows)/( 1+r)i

<em>Where</em>

i- Initial Investment

Cash flows= Cash flows in the time period

r  = Discount rate

i = time period

Computing with a spreadsheet, the Net Present Value of the Investment is given at $ 19,706.

Kindly see attached spreadsheet.

Judgement: Since the NPV is positive the investment is profitable and hence Nice Ltd can go ahead with the expansion.

Cheers!

Variable selling     $0.90   $7.27

Fixed costs per year:

Fixed overhead                $180,000

Selling and administrative $96,000  $276,000

Selling price per unit = $9

Acceptable per-unit inventory cost:

Variable product cost per unit = $6.37

Total variable production cost = $1,274,000

Fixed production cost =                   180,000

Total production cost =              $1,453,000

Unit inventory cost = $7.27 ($1,453,000/200,000)

b. Ending inventory

Beginning inventory   8,200

Production units = 200,000

Units available       208,200

Sales units =          204,300

Ending inventory       3,900

c. Absorption Costing Operating Income:

Sales Revenue                 $1,838,700 ($9 * 204,300)

On January 1, 2021, Perez Co. issued at par $10,000 of 6% bonds convertible in total into 1,000 shares of Perez's common stock.
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

EPS = $4.50

diluted EPS = $2.46

Explanation:

no option is correct since EPS = $4.50, and the rest of the options are all higher amounts. Diluted EPS are always smaller than EPS.  

common stock outstanding = 1,000 stocks

bonds shares (diluted) = 1,000 stocks

net income = $4,500

bond interest = $10,000 x 6% x (1 - 30%) = $420

diluted earnings per share = ($4,500 + $420) / (1,000 shares + 1,000 shares) = $4,920 / 2,000 shares = $2.46
