Answer:

ROIC is 9.26%

ROE is 12.63%

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

Total assets = $1,080,000

Total liabilities = Current liabilities + Debt + Common equity = $1,080,000

D/(D + E) = 0.40

D / ($1,080,000 - 100,000) = 0.40

D = $392,000

Common equity = Total liabilities - Current liabilities - Debt = $1,080,000 - 100,000 - 392,000= $588,000

BEP = 0.15 = EBIT/TA

= EBIT/$1,080,000

Therefore, EBIT = $162,000

In order to calculate the ROIC we would have to make the following calculation:

ROIC = [EBIT(1 – T)]/(D + E) = [$151,200(0.6)]/($392,000 + $588,000) = 9.26%

ROIC is 9.26%

To calculate the ROE we would have to calculate first net income from income statement as follows:

EBIT=$151,200

Less: Interest ($392,000 x 7%) 27,440

EBT= 123,760

Less: Tax 40% 49,504

Net Income= 74,256

Therefore, ROE = NI/E = $74,256/$588,000 = 12.63%

ROE is 12.63%

Suppose an economic boom causes incomes to increase and, at the same time, drives up wages for the sales representatives who wor
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that smartphones are a normal good and income of the individuals increases because of economic boom. We know that there is a direct relationship between the income of an individual and demand for normal goods.

Increase in the income level of the individuals will result in higher demand for smartphones. This will shift the demand curve of smartphones rightwards.

Simultaneously, the wages of sales representatives who work for cell phone companies also increases. This will increase the cost of production for the firms and shifts the supply curve of smartphones leftwards.

Hence, the equilibrium price of smartphones increases but the effect on equilibrium quantity is indeterminate because its effect will be depend upon the magnitude of the shift of supply and demand curve.

pychu [463]

Answer:

a. Profit to an investor who buys call for $4

a. $ -4

b. $ -4

c. $ -4

d. $ 1

e. $ 6

b. Profit to an investor who buys call for $6.5

a. $1.5

b. $6.5

c. $ -1.5

d. $ -3.5

e. $ -8.5

Explanation:

The call option is a derivative in which an investor buys an option to buy the asset at a certain price. The value of the call option is determined by maturity. The buyer of call option can buy an asset at a strike price before expiration date.

If the investor buys the call option for $4 then the $4 is an expense for the investor. The value of call will be -4 unless the stock price is above $50.  

If the investor buys the call option for $6.5 then the $6.5 is an expense for the investor. The value of call will be -6.5 unless the stock price is below $50.

Trava [24]

Answer:

Capitalized Expenditures:

2. Added a new wing onto the office building.

5. Had an engine rebuilt in one of their fleet cars.

Explanation:

Capitalization is the process of delaying the full recognition of an expense for the acquisition of a new asset with long-term life so that the costs can be treated as an expense gradually over its useful life through an accounting method known as depreciation or amortization.

The criteria for capitalizing expenditure depend on whether the expenditure is necessary to bring the asset to the condition and location where it can be operated as desired by the management.  It must also meet the threshold amount set by management for capitalization.  This is because some assets can be used for more than one year and still they are not regarded as capital assets.  Example is a stapling machine that costs less than a dollar.
