Answer:

Option D. The accountant was a member of a professional organization.

Explanation:

The reason is that for a successful claim under the negligence act, the claimant have to prove following three things:

  1. Duty of care existed between the relation
  2. She has suffered economic harm  &
  3. The harm was proximately caused by the accountant's breach of the duty of care.

So the accountant's membership is not a valid requirement under the negligence act for a successful claim.

Income Statement For the Year Ended on December 31 J&amp;H Corp. Industry Average Net sales $39,000,000 $48,750,000 Operating co
noname [10]

Answer:

1.J&H Corp’s NOPAT is $3,744,000, which is $936,000 lower than industry average of $4,680,000

2.Net operating working capital of $18,000 is been used by the company.

3.J&H Corp will be generating $5,019,600 in net cash flow from its operations and an accounting profit of $3,369,600

4.Therefore the firm uses $978,000 of total net operating capital to run the business.

Explanation:

J&H Corp

1. Calculation for NOPAT

NOPAT = 6,240,000 x (1- 40%)

= 6,240,000 x (1 – 0.4)

= 6,240,000 x 0.6

= $3,744,000

Calculation for Industry Average

Industry Average= 7,800,000 x (1- 40%)

7,800,000×(1-0.4)

7,800,000×0.6

=$4,680,000

Hence:

($4,680,000-$3,744,000)=$936,000

J&H Corp’s NOPAT is $3,744,000, which is $936,000 lower than industry average of $4,680,000

2:Calculation for Net Operating Working Capital

Net Operating Working Capital= Current Operating Assets − Current Operating Liabilities

Net Operating Working Capital= (Cash + Accounts Receivable + Inventories)− (Accounts Payable + Accrued Expenses)

Short term investments won't be included in Current Operating Assets

Given current assets = $600,000 ×12% in Short term investments = $72,000

Therefore Current Operating Assets will be: 600,000 – 72,000 = $528,000

Current Operating Liabilities = $510,000

Net Operating Working Capital

= $528,000 - $510,000 = $18,000

Net operating working capital of $18,000 is been used by the company.

3. Calculation for Net cash flow operations

Net cash flow from operations = Net income + Depreciation & Amortization + Changes in Working Capital

Changes in working capital = Working capital of the year

= $600,000 - $510,000

= $90,000

Net cash flow from operations will be:

$3,369,600 + $1,560,000 + $90,000 = $5,019,600

The Accounting profit will be the total revenue less the explicit costs

Explicit costs includes operating expenses, depreciation, interest and taxes.

Hence, the Accounting Profit will be :

Net income = $3,369,600

J&H Corp will be generating $5,019,600 in net cash flow from its operations and an accounting profit of $3,369,600

4. Calculation for the Total net operating capital

Total net operating capital = Net Operating Working Capital + Non-current Operating Assets

$528,000 - $510,000 = $18,000

Net Operating Working Capital = $18,000

Non-current Operating Assets = operating long term assets = $960,000

Total net operating capital

= $18,000 + $960,000

= $978,000

Therefore the firm uses $978,000 of total net operating capital to run the business. Thus the value is been computed as the sum of J&H Corp’s net operating working capital and its Non-current Operating Assets.

The market capitalization treasure on the stock of flex steel company is 12%. the expected ROE is 13% and the expected EPS are 3
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

a. ROE (r) = 13% = 0.13

EPS = $3.60

Expected dividend (D1) = 50% x $3.60 = $1.80

Plowback ratio (b) = 50% = 0.50

Cost of equity (ke) = 12% = 0.12

Growth rate = r x b

Growth rate = 0.13 x 0.50 = 0.065

Po= D1/Ke-g

Po = $1.80/0.12-0.065

Po = $1.80/0.055

Po = $32.73

P/E ratio = <u>Current market price per share</u>

                  Earnings per share

P/E ratio = <u>$32.73</u>

                 $3.60

P/E ratio = 9.09        

b.  ER(S) = Rf + β(Rm - Rf)

    ER(S) = 5 + 1.2(13 - 5)

    ER(S) = 5 + 9.6

    ER(S) = 14.6%

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     

Explanation:

In the first part of the question, there is need to calculate the expected dividend, which is dividend pay-our ratio of 50% multiplied by earnings per share. We also need to calculate the growth rate, which is plowback ratio multiplied by ROE. Then, we will calculate the current market price, which equals expected dividend divided by the difference between return on stock (Ke) and growth rate. Finally, the price-earnings ratio is calculated as current market price per share divided by earnings per share.

In the second part of the question, Cost of equity (return on stock) is a function of risk-free rate plus beta multiplied by market risk-premium. Market risk premium is market return minus risk-free rate.

A professional basketball players' union negotiates a contract that dramatically increases all players' salaries. How would this
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

B) It would increase the opportunity cost of becoming a broadcaster.

Explanation:

Opportunity costs are defined as the cost of choosing one alternative activity or investment over another.

The basketball player has two options, he can continue to play for an NBA team with a much better salary, or he can decide to become a broadcaster. If the player decides to quit basketball, then he will lose more money due to pay raise. That amount of money that he will lose if he decides to become a broadcaster is the opportunity cost of becoming a broadcaster. Since the pay increase raised the player's salary, the opportunity cost of becoming a broadcaster also increases.
