Answer:
C. 4.00
Explanation:
The interest coverage ratio is the same as times interest earned.
It is a the financial ratio that shows how many times over the income or earnings before interest and tax can be used to pay the interest payable in the same period.
Hence, Interest coverage
= Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) / Interest expense
EBIT = $580,000 - $350,000 - $45,000 - $90,000 -$15,000
= $80,000
The company's interest coverage ratio is
= $80,000/$20,000
= 4.00
Answer:
(a). For every additional square foot of area of a house, the price is predicted to increase by $61
(b) The asking price is $145410 and the residual is a negative $4100
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
a) From regression equation Slope = 0.061
So slope = (0.061 × 1,000) ÷ 1 sq. ft.
= $61 per sq. ft.
For every additional square foot area price is increased by $61
b) If size of the house is = 1600 square foot then
Price = 47.81 + 1600*0.061
=$145,410
The asked price is $4,100 less than estimated price and residual is not positive
Hence,
Asking price = $145,410
Residual price = a negative $4,100
Answer: A. He will quite certainly gain approval since the project has a positive net present value.
Explanation:
The options are:
A. He will quite certainly gain approval since the project has a positive net present value.
B. Approval is probable but not likely as he failed to account for the time value of money.
C. He will not gain approval as he failed to consider whether the project is leading edge or not.
D. Approval is probable but not likely as the project has been constructed on estimates instead of facts.
Capital budgeting is used to know whether the long term investment for a particular organization's is actually worth investing in or not by the company.
Based on the scenario in the question, since the present value of the estimated future cash flows is greater than the cost of the project, Ashton will quite certainly gain approval since the project has a positive net present value.
Answer:
B. 66.67%
Explanation:
Contribution is the difference between the company's total revenue and the total variable cost. The ratio of the contribution to sales or revenue gives the contribution margin ratio.
The contribution may also be derived from the addition of the fixed cost and the operating income.
Contribution margin
= $115,000 + $54,000
= $169,000
Let the number of units to be sold to achieve targeted income be U
6U - 2U - 115,000 = 54,000
4U = 169,000
U = 42,250
Contribution margin ratio = 169000/(6 * 42,250)
= 66.67%
