Answer:

The net present value of the project is closest to $144,128. The right answer is b

Explanation:

In order to calculate the The net present value of the project we would have to use the following formula:

Net present value = PV of cash inflows - Initial investment

Present value of cash inflows = Annual cash flow * PVIFA (N,I) where N = 4 and I = 8%

Present value of cash inflows= 119000 * PVIFA (4, 8%) = 119000 * 3.3121

Present value of cash inflows=$394,135

Therefore, Net present value= $394,135 - $250,000

Net present value= $144,135

The net present value of the project is closest to $144,128

Answer:

9.0%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the WACC for this firm

First step

Common stock=284,000 × $68

Common stock= $19,312,000

Second step is to calculate the Preferred stock

Preferred stock=9,000 × $88

Preferred stock= $792,000

Debt= 7,500 × .979 × $1,000

Debt = $7,342,500

Value = $19,312,000 + 792,000 + $7,342,500

Value= $27,446,500

Second step

RE = .041 + 1.04(.146-.041)

RE= .1502

RE = ($2.62 /$68) + .025

RE= .0635

Average RE = (.1502+ .0635)/2

Average RE = .1069

RP = $8/$88

RP = .0909

Fourth step

$979 = [(.068 × $1,000) / 2] × ({1- 1 / [1 + (r/ 2)]22} / (r / 2)) + $1,000 / [1 + (r / 2)]22

r = 7.08 %

Now let calculate the WACC

WACC = ($19,312,000/$27,446,500)(.1069) + ($792,000/$27,446,500)(.0909) + ($7,342,500/$27,446,500)(.0708)(1 -.34)

WACC= .090*100

WACC=9.0 %

Therefore the WACC for this firm is 9.0%

A sofa manufacturer can produce 10 sofas for $2,500 and 12 sofas for $2,760. What is the difference between the average cost per

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:100

Explanation:

The following information can be gotten from the question:

Cost for 10 sofas = $2500

Cost for 12 sofas = $2760.

Average Cost = Total Cost/Quantity

2500 / 10 = $250 and

$2760 / 12 = $230

The average cost for 12 sofas will be $230

Marginal cost is the change in total cost divided by the change in quantity. This will be:

= ( 2760 - 2500 )/( 12 - 10 )

= 260/2

= 130

The difference between the average cost per sofa for 12 sofas and the marginal cost of the 12th sofa will be:

=230 - 130

= 100

Last year, you purchased a stock at a price of $78.00 a share. Over the course of the year, you received $2.70 per share in divi

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

5.65%

Explanation:

Last year a stock of $78.00 was bought

During the period of one year $2.70 was received in dividend and inflation averaged 3.2%

Today the shares was sold for $82.20

The first step is to calculate the nominal return

= ($82.20-$78.00+$2.70)/$78.00

= 6.9/78

= 0.0885×100

= 8.85%

Therefore, the approximate real rate can be calculated as follows

= 8.85%-3.2%

= 5.65%

Hence the approximate real rate of return on this investment is 5.65%

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Sheridan Company

The correct amount of inventory that Sheridan should report is:

= $367,100

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

December 31 Inventory based on physical inventory = $320,800

Goods held on consignment by Herschel = 46,300

December 27, FOB destination goods ($22,000) 0

Correct amount of inventory that Sheridan should report $367,100

Goods on FOB destination remain the property of the supplier until they reach the buyer's destination. This is why it is not included above.
