Answer:

Option 2

Option 3

Option 1

Explanation:

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows.

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

Present value of option 1 = $900

For option 2 :

Cash flow in year 1 = $1200

I = 15%

Present value = $1,043.48

For option 3 :

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 4 = 0

Cash flow in year 5 = $2000

I = 15%

Present value =$ 994.35

From the above figures, option 2 has the highest present value, followed by option 3 and then option 1.

To find the PV using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Ratio of fixed assets to long-term liabilities  = fixed assets / long term liabilities = $971,600 / $694,000 = 1.4

Ratio of liabilities to stockholders' equity = total liabilities / stockholders' equity = $834,000 / $2,780,000  = 0.3

Asset turnover = net sales / average total assets = $21,141,000 / [($3,614,000 + $3,433,000)/2] = 6  

Return on total assets = (net income + interest expense) / average total assets =  ($386,000 + $41,640) / [($3,614,000 + $3,433,000)/2] = 12.14%

Return on stockholders’ equity = net income / average stockholders' equity = $386,000 / [($2,780,000 + $2,558,000) = 14.46%

Return on common stockholders' equity = net income / average common stockholders' equity = $386,000 / [($1,946,000 + $1,724,000) = 21.04%
