Answer:

The question is incomplete, find complete question in the attached.

The receivables turnover for the current year is 9.02 times while average days sales in receivable is 41 days

Explanation:

The formula for computing receivables turnover ratio is given as:

Net credit sales/average accounts receivable,where average receivables is the opening plus closing receivables divided by two.

Net credit sales=$35,657

Average receivables =($3495+$4415)/2=$3955

Receivable turnover ratio=$35657/$3955

=9.02

Average days sales in receivable=number of days in the year/receivable turnover ratio

Average days sales in receivable=365/9.02

=40.47 days approx 41 days

The average days sales in receivable implies the average number of days it takes receivables to settle their accounts

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

The current price = $\dfrac{Dividend(D_o) \times (1+ Growth \ rate) }{\text{Cost of capital -Growth rate}}$

$15 = \dfrac{0.50 \times (1+ Growth rate)}{8\%-Growth rate}$

$15 \times (8 -Growth \ rate) = 0.50 +(0.50 \times growth \ rate)$

$1.20 - (15 \times Growth \ rate) = 0.50 + (0.50 \times growth \ rate)$

$0.70 = (15 \times growth \ rate) \\ \\ Growth \ rate = \dfrac{0.70}{15.50} \\ \\ Growth \ rate = 0.04516 \\ \\ Growth \ rate \simeq 4.52\% \\ \\$

2. The value of the stock

Calculate the earnings at the end of 5 years:

$Earnings (E_o) \times Dividend \ payout \ ratio = Dividend (D_o) \\ \\ Earnings (E_o) \times 35\% = \$0.50 \\ \\ Earnings (E_o) =\dfrac{\$0.50}{35\%} \\ \\ = \$1.42857$

$Earnings (E_5) year \ 5 = Earnings (E_o) \times (1 + Growth \ rate)^{no \ of \ years} \\ \\ Earnings (E_5) year \ 5 = \$1.42857 \times (1 + 12\%)^5 \\ \\ Earnings (E_5) year \ 5 = \$2.51763$

Terminal value year 5 = $\dfrac{Earnings (E_5) \times (1+ Growth \ rate)}{Interest \ rate - Growth \ rate}$

$=\dfrac{\$2.51763\times (1+0.04516)}{8\%-0.04516}$

=$75.526

Discount all potential future cash flows as follows to determine the stock's value:

$\text{Value of stock today} =\bigg( \sum \limits ^{\text{no of years}}_{year =1} \dfrac{Dividend (D_o) \times 1 +Growth rate ) ^{\text{no of years}}}{(1+ interest rate )^{no\ of\ years} }$

$+ \dfrac{Terminal\ Value }{(1+interest \ rate )^{no \ of \ years}} \Bigg)$

$\implies \bigg(\dfrac{\$0.50\times (1 + 12\%)^1) }{(1+ 8\%)^{1} }+ \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1+12\%)^2 }{(1+8\% )^{2}}+ \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1+12\%)^3 }{(1+8\% )^{3}} + \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1+12\%)^4 }{(1+8\% )^{4}} + \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1+12\%)^5 }{(1+8\% )^{5}} + \dfrac{\$75.526}{(1+8\% )^{5}} \bigg )$

$\implies \bigg(\dfrac{\$0.5600}{1.0800}+\dfrac{\$0.62720}{1.16640}+\dfrac{\$0.70246}{1.2597}+\dfrac{\$0.78676}{1.3605}+\dfrac{\$0.88117}{1.4693}+ \dfrac{\$75.526}{1.4693} \bigg)$

=$ 54.1945

As a result, the analysts value the stock at $54.20, which is below their own estimates.

3. The value of the stock

Calculate the earnings at the end of 5 years:

$Earnings (E_o) \times Dividend payout ratio = Dividend (D_o) \\ \\ Earnings (E_o) \times 35\% = \$0.50 \\ \\ Earnings (E_o) =\dfrac{\$0.50}{35\%}\\ \\ = \$1.42857$

$Earnings (E_5) year \ 5 = Earnings (E_o) \times (1 + Growth \ rate)^{no \ of \ years} \\ \\ Earnings (E_5) year \ 5 = \$1.42857 \times (1 + 12\%)^5 \\ \\ Earnings (E_5) year \ 5 = \$2.51763 \\ \\$

Terminal value year 5 = $\dfrac{Earnings (E_5) \times (1+ Growth \ rate)\times dividend \ payout \ ratio}{Interest \ rate - Growth \ rate}$

$=\dfrac{\$2.51763\times (1+ 7 \%) \times 20\%}{8\%-7\%}$

=$53.8773

Discount all potential cash flows as follows to determine the stock's value:

$\text{Value of stock today} =\bigg( \sum \limits ^{\text{no of years}}_{year =1} \dfrac{Dividend (D_o) \times 1 + Growth rate ) ^{\text{no of years}}}{(1+ interest rate )^{no \ of\ years} }+ \dfrac{Terminal \ Value }{(1+interest \ rate )^{no \ of \ years }} \bigg)$

$\implies \bigg( \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1 + 12\%)^1) }{(1+ 8\%)^{1} }+ \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1+12\%)^2 }{(1+8\% )^{2}}+ \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1+12\%)^3 }{(1+8\% )^{3}} + \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1+12\%)^4 }{(1+8\% )^{4}} + \dfrac{\$0.50\times (1+12\%)^5 }{(1+8\% )^{5}} + \dfrac{\$53.8773}{(1+8\% )^{5}} \bigg)$

$\implies \bigg (\dfrac{\$0.5600}{1.0800}+\dfrac{\$0.62720}{1.16640}+\dfrac{\$0.70246}{1.2597}+\dfrac{\$0.78676}{1.3605}+\dfrac{\$0.88117}{1.4693}+ \dfrac{\$53.8773}{1.4693} \bigg)$

=$39.460

As a result, the price is $39.460, and the other strategy would raise the value of the shareholders. Not this one, since paying a 100% dividend would result in a price of $54.20, which is higher than the current price.

Notice that the third question depicts the situation after 5 years, but the final decision will be the same since we are discounting in current terms. If compounding is used, the future value over 5 years is just the same as the first choice, which is the better option.

The presumption in the second portion is that after 5 years, the steady growth rate would be the same as measured in the first part (1).

Vlada [557]

A broad principle that requires identifying the activities of a business with specific time periods such as months, quarters, or years is the <u>Time period principle.</u>

The time period principle- Financial results and other material business activities should be reported over a consistent time period, such as a month, week, day, etc., in accordance with the time period concept. Depending on the frequency of the chosen time period, the firm must then adhere to a distinct set of regulations for each financial statement in accordance with US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

Any company's financial statements can be thought of as a snapshot in time that reveals both the company's history and its current status. That's why it's crucial to disclose to readers the time frame in which the financial statements were generated in accordance with the time period concept.

In its broadest sense, the time period principle holds that any enterprise may conveniently categorize its financial operations into discrete time intervals. That is to say, all cash inflows and outflows may be neatly categorised into separate and sequential accounting periods.

<u></u>

You invested $4,500 in a project which gave you a return of 12.5% the 1st year. You were quite happy, but the 2nd year wasn't as

Furkat [3]

Answer:

4.9%

Explanation:

The computation of the annual average rate of return over the three years is shown below:

Given that

Positive return in 1st year is 12.5%

The Negative return in 2nd year is 3.3%

And, the positive return in 3rd year is 5.5%

So, the annual average rate of return is

= (12.5% - 3.3% + 5.5%) ÷ (3 years)

= 4.9%

Rick loses his job and immediately begins looking for another. Ceteris paribus, the unemployment rate:________.A. increases, and

almond37 [142]

Answer:

B. increases, and the labor-force participation rate is unaffected

Explanation:

Rick loses his job and immediately begins looking for another. Definitely, the unemployment rate has increase. He has been sent back to the labor market. Rick is definitely unemployed because he lost his job and this means an increase in the employment rate. Note that unemployment rate is the percentage of the labor force that is unemployed and are actively looking for a job.

The labor force participation rate is the percentage number of people who are of working age both the employed and the once actively looking for a job. The labor force participation rate is definitely unaffected as Rick lost his job.
