Answer:

A

Explanation:

DOL =  Percentage change in EBIT / percentage change in sales

EPS = {(EBIT - Interest) × (1 - T) } / Shares

The firm has no debt, so interest would be zero

EPS = EBIT × (1 - T) / Shares.

Tax rate and number of outstanding shares remain unchanged.

Percentage Change in EPS = EBIT.

Percentage Change in EPS = (6.5 / 4) - 1 = 0.625 = 62.5%

EBIT = 62.5%

Percentage change in sales= 20%

DOL =  62.5% / 20% =  3.13

Zenith Investment Company is considering the purchase of an office property. It has done an extensive market analysis and has es
ValentinkaMS [17]

Based on the NOIs from Year 1 to 8, the value of the property today to Zenith Investment Company will be $13,221,383.94.

<h3>What is the value of the investment today?</h3>

Because the investment will be sold in 7 years, we need to find the terminal value from year 8 and above considering the indefinite growth rate of 3%.

Terminal value:

= Year 8 cashflow / (Return rate - Growth rate)

= 1,459,170 / (12% - 3%)

= $16,213,000

This amount should be added to the Year 7 cashflow to get:

= 16,213,000 + 1,419,000

= $17,632,000

The value today can be found by taking all the cashflows to their present value and summing them:

= 1,240,000/ 1.12 +  1,240,000 / 1.12² +  1,240,000 / 1.12³ + 1,280,000 / 1.12⁴ +  1,330,000 / 1.12⁵ +  1,380,000/ 1.12⁶ +  17,632,000⁷

= $13,221,383.94
