Answer:
880 blue ink pens
Explanation:
The computation of the inventory position is shown below:
= Current stock counted in the closet + already placed orders with the supplier
where,
Current stock counted in the closet is 220 blue ink pens
And, the already placed orders with the supplier is 600 blue ink pens
Now placing these values to the above formula
So, the inventory position is
= 220 blue ink pens + 600 blue ink pens
= 880 blue ink pens
Answer:
If the effective tax rate increases then the net savings coming from investments will get lowered as a result the investment will have higher payback period (The increase in effective tax rate would lower demand of the product which means there is decline in net saving arising from the sale of the product). Likewise this decrease in annual net savings will also decrease the internal rate of return which shows that their are increased chances of project rejections. The NPV method is based on cash flows and relevant costing just like IRR and payback method but the only difference is that it assumes that the cash earned would be reinvested at cost of capital. The NPV will also decrease due to increased effective tax rate.
Answer:
C. 11.05%
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of capital under the proposed leveraging is shown below;
cost of capital is
=Debt÷ value of leverged firm × ((unlevered cost of capital × (1 - tax rate))
=800 ÷ 1600 × ((13% + (13%) × (1 - 30%)))
= 11.0500%
hence, the cost of capital is 11.05%
Although there is no question here, I am assuming that this is a True/False question because it is a False statement.
A certificate of deposit is an investment with a fixed interest rate for a fixed period of time. There are nearly always penalties for early withdrawal.
