Dream, Inc., has debt outstanding with a face value of $6 million. The value of the firm if it were entirely financed by equity

would be $17.85 million. The company also has 350,000 shares of stock outstanding that sell at a price of $38 per share. The corporate tax rate is 35 percent. What is the decrease in the value of the company due to expected bankruptcy costs? (Assume that the market value of the debt is the same as the face value of the debt, because the debt has just been issued at today’s market interest rate, that the debt is perpetual, and that in this economy corporate taxes as well as financial distress costs exist.)

Answer:

$650,000

Explanation:

For computing the decrease in the  expected bankruptcy costs, first we have to determine the total firm value in each case which is shown below:

Total firm value = Equity + Debt × corporate tax rate

                          = $17,850,000 + $6,000,000 × 0.35

                          = $17,850,000 + $2,100,000

                          = $19,950,000

Now the total firm value based on market share

= Equity + Debt

= 350,000 shares × $38 + $6,000,000

= $13,300,000 + $6,000,000

= $19,300,000

The difference would be

= $19,950,000 million - $19,300,000

= $650,000

A company uses the percent of sales method to determine its bad debts expense. At the end of the current year, the company's una
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: $5,440

Explanation:

When using the percent of sales method to determine bad debts, the company estimates a percentage that it believes will results in uncollectible debt and then applies it to the sales/revenue figure. The figure that is calculated is then debited along with the debit balance on the Allowance for doubtful accounts to the Bad debts account for the year and credited to the Allowance for doubtful accounts.

This company estimates that they will have 0.6% of credit sales uncollectible.

There are also $790,000 in sales of which all are on credit.

The Uncollectible estimate is therefore,

= 790,000 * 0.6%

= $4,740

This figure is then added to the debit amount on the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts.

= 4,470 + 700

= $5,440

Note; A debit balance on the Allowance for doubtful debt account signifies that the bad debts were higher than anticipated the last time. This is why the figure is added to the current bad debts expense.

The balances in Sanchez Accounting Services' office supplies account on February 1 and February 28 were $1,100 and $475, respect
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

$575

Explanation:

Given that,

Opening office supplies = $1,100

Closing office supplies = $475

Office supplies expense for the month = $1,200

Opening stock + Purchases - Closing stock = Consumption

$1,100 + Purchases - $475 = $1,200

$625 + Purchases = $1,200

Purchases = $1,200 - $625

                  = $575

Therefore, the amount of office supplies was purchased during February is $575.

What business messages are better organized directly, and which is better organized indirectly?
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Generally speaking, a business message expressing negative news (reader will react negatively) should be organized indirectly. The message should be delivered among other information and should not stand out. This is only appropriate if it is practical to deliver the message in this way (immediate action is not required). A more positive message should be prominent in the communication and expressed in a more direct way, since it is assumed that the reader will react positively.
