Answer:

a) Market Value = $100 million × $20 = $2,000 million = $2 billion

Market value of equity would remain same = $2 billion

b) Market value would remain same after recap. Only market capitalization would reduce to half.

Market value of equity = 1 billion

c) Buying back shares increases the stock price which demonstrates the faith of the company in its work. But creditors have capital gains.

d) After recap and cash flow firm total value has increased to $2 billion + $100 Million = $2.1 billion and market value of equity has increased from $20 to $22 . ($1000 + $100)/50 = $22.

e) Equity shareholders have gained due to increase in there share value

Companies HD and LD are both profitable, and they have the same total assets (TA), total invested capital, sales (S), return on
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Option D is correct.

Explanation:

Both company will have same Equity multiplier as total assets and equity are same of both companies. So Option A and B is incorrect.

Option C is also incorrect because there is no difference between the sales and total assets of both companies.

Option D is correct because the return on equity of the company LD is higher as the Net profit which is profit after interest and tax is higher than the profit after interest and tax of the company HD.

ROE = PAIT / Equity

Option E is wrong because when we say ROA is same this means that the operating income is same.

ROA = Operating profit / Total assets

Remember that the operating profit is earnings before interest and tax.

Hunter’s paradise sells merchandize on account to outdoor haven for $3,280, terms 2/10, n/30. what should the journal entry be t
Schach [20]
These are payment terms in the accounting. The first term 2/10 means that if you can pay the amount after 10 days, you would be given a 2% discount. If not, that's what the second terms means. This means you have to pay the net or full amount within 30 days.

So, if he can pay within 10 days, he will only have to give $3214.4. If not, then he would have to pay $3280 within 30 days.
