Available Options Are:

a. Increasing ROIC by increasing return on sales

b. Decreasing ROIC by increasing return on sales

c. Decreasing ROIC by decreasing return on sales

d. Increasing ROIC by decreasing return on sales

Answer:

Option C. Decreasing ROIC by decreasing return on sales

Explanation:

The return on sales would be reduced as the research expenses have increased substantially. The implications of increased research expenses on the ROIC can be understood by analyzing the ROIC formula which is given as under:

ROCI  =  Operating Income (1 - Tax Rate) / Book Value of Invested Capital

As revenue expenditure (Research and Development expenses) of the company has increased, this would decrease the operating income of the company which means that the numerator would be decreased and as a result the ROIC would decrease.

Maru [420]

Answer:

The common stockholders will receive a dividend of $100000 in 2015

Explanation:

The preferred stock is non cumulative which means that in case it does not pay dividends in a certain year, the dividends will no be accumulated and the company will not be obliged to pay these dividends in later year.

The per share preferred stock dividend for the company is = 100 * 0.06 = $6

The total dividends on preferred stock per year = 6 * 25000 = $150000

The common stockholders are paid dividends after the preferred stockholders are paid.

Thus, for 2015 the common stockholders will receive a dividend of,

Common stock dividend = 250000 - 150000 = $100000

On January 1, 1997, an investment account is worth 100,000. On April 1, 1997, the value has increased to 103,000 and 8,000 is wi
loris [4]

Answer:

(B) 6.25%

Explanation:

January 1, 1997 = $100,000

April 1. 1997 = $103,000 - $8,000 = $95,000

January 1, 1999 = $103,992

annual interest rate for 1997 = i = (x - 100,000 + 8,000) / [100,000 - 8,000(1 - ³/₁₂) = (x - 100,000 + 8,000) / [100,000 - 8,000(1 - 0.25) = (x - 92,000) / 94,000

x = 92,000 + 94,000i

annual interest rate for 1998 = 1 + i = 103,992/x

x = 103,992/(1 + i)

0 = x(1 + i) - 103,992

now we replace x by 92,000 + 94,000i

0 = (92,000 + 94,000i)(1 + i) - 103,992

0 = (94,000 (1 + i) - 2,000)(1 + i) - 103,992

we now replace 1 + i by Y

0 = (94,000Y - 2,000)Y - 103,992

0 = 94,000Y² - 2,000Y - 103,992

using a calculator, Y = 6.25%
