Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc. just reported earnings after tax (also called net income) of $9,750,000, and a current st
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

a. $12.08 per share

Explanation:

For computing the next year stock we have to do the following calculations  

Current Earning per share  = Net Income ÷ Number of Common Shares Outstanding

= $9,750,000 ÷ 5,500,000 shares  

= $1.77

Current Price Earning ratio = Current stock price ÷  Current EPS

= $14.74 ÷ $1.77

= 8.33

Now Next year earning per share = $9,750,000 ×  1.25 ÷ 8,400,000 shares = $1.45

So, the next year stock price = $1.45 x 8.33

= $12.08 per share

Suppose that you sell short 250 shares of Xtel, currently selling for $70 per share, and give your broker $10,000 to establish y
densk [106]

Answer:

i = 20%

ii= 0%

iii= 15%

Explanation:

First, short selling representsthe selling borrowed securities in order to repurchase them after some time. These securities are not owned, but borrowed instead. The idea is to sell when its price is high and then re-purchase in the future when the price is lower.

a) Determine the return after a year as follows

The number of shares = 250

The price per share =$70

Rate of return is calcuated by the following:

(Number of shares sold short x changes in price) / Margin account amount

We use the three different cases as given in the question

Case 1 - $78

Rate of Return = 250 shares x ($70- $78)/ $10,000

Rate of Return = 250 shares x (-$8)/$10,000

= -$2000/ $10,000 = 0.2 or 20.00%

Case 2 - $70

Rate of Return = 250 shares x ($70- $70)/ $10,000

Rate of Return = 250 shares x ($0)/$10,000

= $0/ $10,000 = 0.00%

Case 3 - $64

Rate of Return = 250 shares x ($70- $64)/ $10,000

Rate of Return = 250 shares x ($6)/$10,000

= $1500/ $10,000 = 0.15 or 15.00%

<u>Therefore, we need to isolate the total variable cost and replace the variable with the data:</u>

Total variable cost= sales - total contribution margin

Total variable cost= 400,000 - 220,000

Total variable cost= $180,000

<u>Finally, the fixed costs:</u>

Fixed costs= total contribution margin - net income

Fixed costs= 220,000 - 180,000
