Answer:

He could afford to spend $133,411 for the device now.

Explanation:

The maximum the surgeon could afford for the device is equal to the sum of present value of the lawsuit costs that he can avoid in year 2 and year 5 which is:

+ Year 2: 600,000 * %out-of-pocket cost for the law suit = 600,000 * 10% = $60,000;

+ Year 5: 1,350,000 * %out-of-pocket cost for the law suit = 1,350,000 * 10% = $135,000.

=> The amount he can afford for the device = 60,000 / 1.1^2 + 135,000 / 1.1^5 = $133,411.

So, the answer is $133,411.

irina [24]

Answer:

The basic earnings per share for the present year is $7.36 per share

Explanation:

The basic earnings per share for the current year of Comma is computed as:

= (Net Income - preferred stock) / Outstanding shares

where

Net Income is $200,000

Preferred stock is computed as:

= Shares × 10% × Price × 10%

= 8,000 × 10% × $20

= 800 × $20

= $16,000

Outstanding shares - 25,000

Putting the values above:

= ($200,000 - $16,000) / 25,000

= $ 184,000 / 25,000 shares

= $7.36 per common share
