Answer:

Explanation:

a. The synergy will be the present value of the incremental cash flows of the proposed purchase.      

Since the cash flows are perpetual, this amount is $370,000/.08      

=$370000/.08        

=$4,625,000

b        

The value of Flash-in-the-Pan to Fly-by-Night is the synergy plus the current market value of Flash-in-the-Pan      

= $4625000+9000000          

=$13625000

c

stocked acquired = percentage age of ownership x value of merged firm

0.35 (13625000 + 23000000)

= $12818750

d

NPVs = Value of Flash-in-the-Pan to Fly-by-Night – (equivalent) cash offer =synergy – cost:    

NPV of cash alternative = 13625000 – 13000000 = $625,000

NPV of stock alternative = 13625000 - 12818750 = $806,250

e

Use the Stock Alternative, Because NPV is better

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

You should buy more shares

Explanation:

The above-mentioned question is missing few components. I have added them to explain on how the question would be solved if all the variables were provided. Please note the additions in bold text below. The answer of which is given afterwards.

You own 300 shares of Somner​ Resources' preferred​ stock, which currently sells for $39 per share and pays annual dividends of ​$5.50 per share. If the​ market's required yield on similar shares 12% is ​percent, should you sell your shares or buy​ more?

Solution as mentioned below:

First of all we need to calculate value of the preferred stock by dividing the annual dividend per share from the market required rate.

Value of preferred stock = 5.50 / 12%

Value of preferred stock = $45.83

Now given the fact that the current price at which the stocks are sold is $39 which is less than the price at which they are actually valued which is $45.83. You should buy more of the shares as they are currently undervalued.

yKpoI14uk [10]

The available options are the following:

-Board members serve on multiple boards

-People with knowledge of the firm's history are replaced with those who may not know as much information

-Less frequent board meetings

-Better decisions about important issues

Answer:

-People with knowledge of the firm's history are replaced with those who may not know as much information

Explanation:

Considering the available options, the option that appears negative and related to the point being discussed is

"People with knowledge of the firm's history are replaced with those who may not know as much information."

It is straightforward, as changing the board of directors will at some point lead to a time where the new member in the board of directors will just be a competent worker but has no history with the company.

Earnings per share: Select one: a. Will always be lower than the dividend paid per share b. Will always be higher than the divid
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

b. Will always be higher than the dividend paid per share

Explanation:

A firm pays dividend to it's stockholders based upon it's earnings.

Earnings per share (EPS) is expressed as:

= \frac{Earnings\ available\ to\ stockholders}{No.\ of\ stocks\ outstanding}

Dividend payout ratio on the other hand is expressed as:

= EPS (1 - b)

wherein, b = retention ratio which denotes the percentage of earnings retained by a firm i.e not distributed as dividends.

Thus, a firm's earnings per share would always be higher than the dividend paid by it per share.
