Answer:

a. 3.58

Explanation:

the price earning ratio is obtain with the following formula:

\frac{Market \: Price}{EPS}

We are given with the market price, now we need to solve for the EPS

with sales and profit margin we solve for net income. then we divide by the shares outstanding to get the EPS

823,000 sales x 4.2 profit margin = 34.566‬ net income

now we solve for EPS Earning per share:

\frac{Income}{Shares}\\\frac{34,566}{7,500} = 4.6088‬

Now we can sovle for price-earnings ratio

\frac{Market \: Price}{EPS}

16.50/4.61 = 3,5791 = 3.58

g100num [7]

Answer: False

                   

Explanation: In simple words, competitive market refers to the market structure in which there are large number of buyers and sellers, individual operating at a small level.

Due to the high number of buyers and sellers in the market no individual participant is able to impact or fix prices. All the buyers and sellers have to trade on prices that are determined by the market forces of demand and supply.

Consumers are price takers in such a market as no individual consumer has the ability to trade in all of the stocks and one only deals with a minor portion of the total business available. Thus, from the above we can conclude that the given statement is incorrect.

: Jane and Sarah are both investors. Jane has invested thousands of dollars into one small company. Sarah has invested hundreds
Alja [10]

Answer:

Sarah has invested in sole proprietorship while Jane has invested in corporations

Explanation:

Sole proprietorship is owned and run by a single owner who is legally obligated for all business assets and liabilities. Since Sarah has invested thousands of dollars in one company, it looks like she has invested in sole proprietorship in which she is the owner.

Corporation is run by group of people who are not legally obligated for the assets and liabilities of the corporation. People can invest in more than one corporation as they are open for public offer. These investors earn dividends based on the earnings earned by the corporations So, possibly Jane has invested hundreds of dollars in different large companies.

= $1,980,000/$9,900,000 * 100

= 20%

Profit margin = Net Income/Sales * 100

= $1,980,000/$20,710,000 * 100

= 9.6%

Asset turnover = Sales/Total Assets

= $20,710,000/$9,900,000 = 2.1 times

Return on equity = Net Income/Total Equity * 100

= $1,980,000/$5,300,000 * 100

Atom Endeavour Co. issued $21 million face amount of 4.0% bonds when market interest rates were 4.46% for bonds of similar risk
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

A. $840,000

B. Discount

C. Annual interest expense on these bonds will be more than  the amount of interest paid each year.

Explanation:

Data

Bonds issued = $21,000,000

Coupin rate = 4.0%

Market Interest rate = 4.46%

Requirement A: Annual interest amount

Interest amount = Bonds issued x coupon rate

Interest amount = $21,000,000 x 4.0%

Interest amount = $840,000

Requirement B: Whether it is Premium or Discount?

Bonds that Atom Endeavour Co. issued are discount as you can clearly see in the data that the market rate is higher than the coupon rate. Investors who will buy these bonds surely expect a capital gain.

Requirement C:

The discount on the issue of bonds is amortized to interest expense over the life of the bond, therefore the interest expense on these bonds will be more than the amount of interest paid each year,
