LenKa [72]

Answer:

E) if the firm evaluates these projects and all other projects at the new overall corporate wacc, it will probably become riskier over time.

Explanation:

Before the merger, Audaco would have rejected any project with an IRR of less than 12% (more risky investments) while Careco only required a 10% IRR (less risky projects). But after the merger the combined WACC will be lower than Audaco's, but higher than Careco's. Therefore, the new merged company will start accepting more risky projects and that tendency will continue over time. Eventually, the company's WACC will have to adjust and increase, and the cycle will continue.

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (66,000 - 5,700) / 6= 10,050

2017:

Annual depreciation= (10,050/12)*3= $2,512.5

storchak [24]

Answer:

Purchases= $26,550

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production:

January= 2,900 units

February= 3,600 units

Norton budgets $20 per unit for direct materials.

Beginning inventory raw materials= $38,650.

Desired ending inventory direct materials= 10% of the next month's direct materials needed for production.

To calculate the purchases of direct material, we need to use the following formula:

Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Purchases= 2,900*20 + (3,600*0.1)*20 - 38,650

Purchases= $26,550

VikaD [51]

Answer:

3.10; 1.53

Explanation:

Total Current Assets:

= Cash + Receivables + Inventory + Other Current Assets

= $99 + $91 + $179 + $15

= $384 million

Total Current Liabilities:

= Accounts Payable + current portion of long-term debt

= $92 + $32

= $124 million

Current Ratio:

= Total Current Assets ÷ Total Current Liabilities

= $ 384 ÷ $ 124

= 3.10

Acid Test Ratio:

= (Cash + Accounts Receivables ) ÷ Current Liabilities

= $(99 + 91) ÷ $124

= 1.53
