Ghost, Inc., has no debt outstanding and a total market value of $369,600. Earnings before interest and taxes, EBIT, are project

arlik [135]

Answer:

Ghost Inc.

A1.

Earnings Per share (EPS)

EPS in normal projection is $4.61 per share

EPS in an expansion is $5.31 Per share

EPS in a recession is $3.51 Per share

A2.

Changes to EPS in an expansion is +15.18%

Changes to EPS in a recession is -23.86%

B1.

Earnings Per share (EPS)

EPS in normal projection is $7.23 per share

EPS in an expansion is $8.62 Per share

EPS in a recession is $5.01 Per share

B2.

Changes to EPS in an expansion is +19.23%

Changes to EPS in a recession is -30.71%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Underlying Information:</u>

Earnings before interest and taxes, EBIT projections = $51,000

Expansionary EBIT projections = $51,000 x (100% + 15%) = $58,650

Recessionary EBIT projections = $51,000 x (100% -24%) = $38,760

Tax Rate = 24%

Market to Book Ratio = 1.0

Stock Price is constant.

Solution to A1.

<u>Scenario 1 (Projected Earnings)</u>

Earnings Per Share (EPS) = Net Income (Earnings after Tax) divided by Outstanding Shares in Issue

Net Income = EBIT minus tax = $51,000 - ($51,000 x 24%)

= $51,000 - $12240

= $38,760

Outstanding shares in issue = 8,400 ordinary Shares

EPS = $38,760 divided by 8,400 shares = $4.61 Per share

<u>Scenario 2 (Projected Earnings in a strong expansion)</u>

Earnings Per Share (EPS) = Net Income (Earnings after Tax) divided by Outstanding Shares in Issue

Net Income = EBIT minus tax = $58,650 - ($58,650 x 24%)

= $58,650 - $14,076

= $44,574

Outstanding shares in issue = 8,400 ordinary Shares

EPS = $44,574 divided by 8,400 shares = $5.31 Per share

<u>Scenario 3 (Projected Earnings in a Recession)</u>

Earnings Per Share (EPS) = Net Income (Earnings after Tax) divided by Outstanding Shares in Issue

Net Income = EBIT minus tax = $38,760 - ($38,760 x 24%)

= $38,760 - $9,302.4

= $29,457.6

Outstanding shares in issue = 8,400 ordinary Shares

EPS = $44,574 divided by 8,400 shares = $3.51 Per share

Solution to A2.

1.Changes to EPS in an expansion = EPS (Expansion) minus EPS (normal projection), all divided by EPS (normal projection)

= (5.31 - 4.61) / 4.61

= +15.18% change during an expansion

2.Changes to EPS in a recession = EPS (Recession) minus EPS (normal projection), all divided by EPS (normal projection)

= (3.51 - 4.61) / 4.61

= -23.86% change during a recession

<u>Underlying Information:</u>

Debt issue = $185,000

Interest on debt issued = 6% = $11,100

Market to Book Ratio = 1.0

Stock Price is constant.

Therefore Share Price = Market Value divided by Outstanding shares in issue = 369,600 / 8400 = $44

This implies our proceeds of $185,000 from debt issue would have repurchased $185,000 divided by $44 = 4,205 ordinary shares

This decision to repurchase its shares indicates the shares outstanding will reduce by 4,205. New outstanding shares will now be 4,195 shares

*Earnings before interest and taxes, EBIT normal projections = $51,000 & Earnings Before Tax (EBT) = $51,000 minus $11,100 (debt interest) = $39,900

*Expansionary EBIT projections = $51,000 x (100% + 15%) = $58,650 & Earnings Before Tax = $58,650 minus $11,100 (debt interest) = $47,550

*Recessionary EBIT projections = $51,000 x (100% -24%) = $38,760 & Earnings Before Tax = $38,760 minus $11,100 (debt interest) = $27,660

Tax Rate = 24%

Solution to B1.

<u>Scenario 1 (Projected Earnings)</u>

Earnings Per Share (EPS) = Net Income (Earnings after Tax) divided by Outstanding Shares in Issue

Net Income = EBT minus tax = $39,900 - ($39,900 x 24%)

= $39,900 - $9,576

= $30,324

Outstanding shares in issue = 4,195 ordinary Shares

EPS = $30,324 divided by 4,195 shares = $7.23 Per share

<u>Scenario 2 (Projected Earnings in a strong expansion)</u>

Earnings Per Share (EPS) = Net Income (Earnings after Tax) divided by Outstanding Shares in Issue

Net Income = EBT minus tax = $47,550 - ($47,550 x 24%)

= $47,550 - $11,412

= $36,138

Outstanding shares in issue = 4,195 ordinary Shares

EPS = $36,138 divided by 4,195 shares = $8.62 Per share

<u>Scenario 3 (Projected Earnings in a Recession)</u>

Earnings Per Share (EPS) = Net Income (Earnings after Tax) divided by Outstanding Shares in Issue

Net Income = EBT minus tax = $27,660 - ($27,660 x 24%)

= $27,660 - $6,638.40

= $21,021.60

Outstanding shares in issue = 4,195 ordinary Shares

EPS = $21,021.60 divided by 4,195 shares = $5.01 Per share

Solution to B2.

1.Changes to EPS in an expansion = EPS (Expansion) minus EPS (normal projection), all divided by EPS (normal projection)

= (8.62 - 7.23) / 7.23

= +19.23% change during an expansion

2.Changes to EPS in a recession = EPS (Recession) minus EPS (normal projection), all divided by EPS (normal projection)

= (5.01 - 7.23) / 7.23

= -30.71% change during a recession

A hot air balloon rises an initial 525

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

380ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the balloon rises 525ft from sea level (0ft), all we need to do is subtract both numbers to find the new height.

525 - 145 = 380ft

There could be many different scenarios though because if the question provides the height of land off sea level, you would have to take that into account as well.

Best of Luck!

Mary is analyzing a quadratic function f(x) and a linear function g(x). Will they intersect? Which coordinates if they do? Negat

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

The graphs of the two function will not intersect.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a quadratic function f(x).

Also g(x) is given by a set of values as:

x g(x)

1 -1

2 0

3 1

As g(x) is a linear function hence we find out the equation of g(x) by the slope intercept form of a line: y=mx+c

let g(x)=y

when x=1 , g(x)=-1

-1=m+c----(1)

when x=2 , g(x)=0

0=2m+c------(2)

Hence, on solving (1) and (2) by method of elimination we get:

m=1 and c=-2

Hence, the equation of g(x) is:

g(x)=x-2

So clearly from the graph we could see that the graph of the two functions will never intersect.

you deposit 1000 in savings account that earns .5% each month assuming you do not deposit or withdraw any money from the account

ikadub [295]

Answer:

$1015.11

Step-by-step explanation:

Compounded interest rate formula: A = P(1 + r/n)^t

Step 1: Plug in known variables

A = 1000(1 + 0.005/12)^36

Step 2: Multiply it all together

1000(1.00042)^36

1000(1.01511)

1015.11

This is a pretty bad bank considering only giving you .5% interest per month.
