Answer:

Position 02.

Explanation:

Each of the 04 teams have 12 games, hence a pair from one team plays the other four times. There are six possibilities of forming a pair in all the four teams, so in all 6x4=24 games were played among the teams. This also means that there is a possibility of 24 wins and 24 losses in all the four teams.  

First team= 7 W and 5 L

Second team = 8 W and 4 L

Worst team = 12 games = W + L ( From twice as many losses as wins we know 2W = L )

12 = W + 2W

12 = 3W

W = 4 and L = 8

For last team:

W = 24

W = 7 W + 8 W + 4 W + X = 24

19 W + X = 24 W

X = 5 W

Hence Billy's team is second

The risk-free rate of return is 5.5%, the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 17%, and the stock of Xyrong Corpor
Katen [24]

Answer:

1. $12.31

2. -11.96%

Explanation:

a) Calculation to determine the intrinsic value of a share of Xyrong stock

First step is to calculate the Required Return

Using this formula

Required Return = Risk-free Rate + [Beta * (Expected Market Return - Risk-free Rate)]

Let plug in the formula

Required Return= 5.5% + [2.7 * (17% - 5.5%)]

Required Return= 5.5% + 31.05% = 36.55%

Second step is to calculate g using this formula

g = ROE * (1 - Payout Ratio)

Let plug in the formula

g= 18% * (1 - 0.25)

g= 13.5%

D0 = EPS0 * Payout Ratio = $10 * 0.25 = $2.50

P0 = [D0 * (1 + g)] / [r - g]

= [$2.50 * (1 + 0.135)] / [0.3655 - 0.135]

= $2.8375 / 0.2305 = $12.31

b). Holding Period Return = [P1 + D1 - P0] / P0

= [$8 + $2.8375 - $12.31] / $12.31 = -$1.4727 / $12.31 = -0.1196, or -11.96%

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

The company paid $278,031

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

A company bought a parcel of land twenty years ago. The land is currently worth $575,000. The yearly appreciation rate has been 3.7%.

<u>To calculate the past value of the land, we need to use the following formula:</u>

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= present value (20 years ago)

n= 20

FV= 575,000

i= 0.037

PV= 575,000 / (1.037^20)

PV= $278,031

The Balance sheet of Mister Ribs Restaurant reports current assets of $30,000 and current liabilities of $15,000.a. Calculate th
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

<u>Current Ratio = 2; Yes</u>

Explanation:

First, to solve for current ratio, simply divide the current assets by the current liabilities.

So the current ratio would be $30,000 / $15,000 resulting to <em><u>2</u></em>

Now, a current ratio greater than one means that <u>Mister Ribs will be able to pay its current liabilities as they come due in the next year.</u>

However, because the current ratio at any one time is just a snapshot, it is usually not a complete representation of a company’s liquidity or solvency.
