Answer:

5 percent

Explanation:

The nominal interest rate is defined as the interest rate before adjusting for inflation. It is the interest rate stated by lenders when issuing out loans. Inflation erodes the strength of a currency. For depositors to profits from their savings, the nominal rate must be greater than the inflation rate.

The difference between the nominal rate and the inflation rate is the rear rate of return. The rear rate is the actual gain or the cost of borrowing or savings. For chloe, the real rate is the amount the lender will be earning from the personal loan advanced to her. It is the nominal rate adjusted for inflation. The rate is 8 percent, minus 3 percent.

Bond retirement is also known as bond reimbursement. The equalization will be repaid with interest on the reimbursement date.

<h3>When recording bond retirements, use a discount account:</h3>

Bonds are assumed to be worth $603,000, and their current book value is estimated to be $645,210. T will be paid back with a 7% premium. $42,210 is the total ($603,000 x 7%). The bond guarantor must give the investor $65,210 ($603,000 + $42,210) on the date of reimbursement. The $42,210 excess payment should be viewed as bad luck for the bond call.

Selected balance sheet and income statement information for Oracle corporation follows.(required computations from the perspecti
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

<u>(A) Compute learn on equity as follows: </u>

Return on equity = (Net income/ Average stock holders’ equity) x 100  

Return on equity = $9,938 / $47,771

Return on equity = 20.8%

Average stock holders’ equity = (48,663 + $46878)/ 2

Average stock holders’ equity = $47,771

<em>Therefore, Return on equity is 20.8% </em>

<u>(B) Compute return on vet assets as follows: </u>

ROA = (Net income / Average total asset) × 100

ROA = ($9,938/100,585) × 100

ROA = 9.88%

Average total asset = (110,903 + 90,266) / 2  

Average total asset = $100,585

<em>Therefore, Return on net assets is 9.88% </em>

<u>(C) Compute return on net operating assets as follows: </u>

Return on net operating assets = (Net Operating income after tax / Average operating assets) × 100

Return on net operating assets = ($9,938 + 1,037) × 100 / 53,991

Return on net operating assets = ($10,975 / $53,991) × 100

Return on net operating assets = 20.33%

Average Operating assets = ($56,535 + 51,447) / 2

Average Operating assets = $53,991

<em>Therefore, Return on net operating assets is 20.33% </em>

Winston Clinic is evaluating a project that costs $52, 125 and has expected net cash inflows of $12,000 per year for eight years
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Payback period (years):  4.23  years

NPV: $6,685  

IRR: 16%

MIRR: 14%

The project is financially acceptable because IRR and MIRR is greater than cost of capital

Explanation:

Payback period is calculating the number of year when cash inflow can cover cash outflow (regardless the present value of cash inflow).

As we can easily estimate, cash inflow in 5 year can cover the investment.

Then payback period = 4 years + 12000/52,125 = 4.23 years

We can use excel to calculate NPV, IRR, MIRR in the formula as below

Net present value of project: NPV=(discounting rate, cash outflow, cash inflow) = (12%, -52125,12000,12000......,12000) = $6,685

Internal rate of return: IRR= (cash outflow, cash inflow) = ( -52125,12000,12000,......,12000) = 16%

Modified internal rate of return: MIRR = (cash outflow, cash inflow, IRR, cost of capital) = (-52125,12000,12000......,12000,16%,12%) = 14%
