Answer:

Profit earning ratio of MMC = 10%

Explanation:

Given:

Current stock price = $100

Yearly profit on each share = $10

Profit earning ratio (P\E ratio) =?

Computation of profit earning ratio:

Profit earning ratio (P\E ratio) = Current stock price / Yearly profit on each share

Profit earning ratio (P\E ratio) = $100 / $10

Profit earning ratio (P\E ratio) = 10

It is computed that MMC's Profit earning ratio is nearer to the industry averages P/E ratio so, the investor can wait for some time to purchase this stock.

A company had $5,000,000 in total revenues for its fiscal year. Its expenses for the year were $3,500,000. Its total assets were
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

ROA = 0.12

so correct option is d

Explanation:

Given data:

total revenue = $5,000,000

Expenses = $3,500,000

Total assets = $12,500,000

Rate on assets (ROA) is calculated as

ROA = \frac{Net\ income}{Total\ assets}

Net income = total revenue - expenses

Net income = $5,000,000 - 3,500,000

So,ROA = \frac{1500000}{12500000}

ROA = 0.12

so correct option is d

An account of an event created by someone who took part in or witnessed the event
castortr0y [4]
I think the correct answer would be primary source. It is an account of an event created by someone who took part in or witnessed the event. It is also known as original source.  It is any document, manuscript, diary, autobiography, artifact, recording or any source that was made at the time being studied. Examples are interviews, archives, photographs, letters, films and scrapbooks. When the data from these primary sources are obtained from other source wherein they are being analyzed and interpreted then these sources will be called as a secondary source. Examples are articles, books, magazines, surveys, internet resources.

On January 1, 20Y8, Crabb & Co. sold land to ASP, Inc. and accepted a two-year, $500,000 face value note as payment. 6% inte
jeka94

Answer:

1. Discount

2. $449,298.47

3. $369,298.47 gain

4. land reduces by $80,000, investment increases by $449,298.47, reserves increases by $369,298.47

Explanation:

Question 1

Using the formula below

Price=\frac{I_{1}}{1+r} +\frac{I_{2}+F}{(1+r)^{2}}

where

I = interest rate, which is 6% of 500,000 = 30,000

F = Face value, 500,000

r = borrowing cost = 12%

Therefore, the price of the note at the time it was used for payment was

Price=\frac{30,000}{1.12} +\frac{30,000+500,000}{(1.12)^{2}}

= $449,298.47.

As the price is lower than the face value of the note, the note was issued at a discount.

Question 2

The fair market value of the note is $449,298.47, the compute price in question 1.

Question 3

The gain/loss on the sale of the land

= sale price - purchase price

= $449,298.47 - 80,000

= $369,298.47.

Question 4

The transaction would affect Crabb & Co's balance sheet as follows.

<em>Asset side:</em>

land reduces by $80,000

investment increases by $449,298.47

<em>Equity & liabilities side:</em>

reserves increases by $369,298.47

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

$38,000

Explanation:

The computation of the cost of the land is shown below:

= Purchase price of land + closing cost + removal cost of an old building

= $26,300 + $1,300 + $10,400

= $38,000

In order to find out the cost of the land, we simply added the purchase value of land, its closing cost and the removal cost of an old building
