Answer:

-3 million dollars

Explanation:

we have EVA = economic value added

to ge the EVA, we use this formula :

(operating return on the assets - cost of the total capital) multiplied by the total assets

total assets = 100 million

operating return = 12 percent

cost of capital = 15 percent

the EVA = 12% - 15% * 100000000

= -0.03 * 100000000

= -3,000,000 dollars

b. The loss of the value of the shareholder is happening even though the firm is earning ROI that is more than the average firm in the industry.

One month; property manager will have to return her security deposit in one month after she moves out of the property.

More about security deposit:

Source of funds to pay tenant obligations owed to the landlord in the event of a breach of the rental or lease agreement. When a tenant fails to uphold their financial obligations under the terms of a rental or lease agreement, the landlord may be able to recover some of their financial losses from the security deposit.

If a tenant's creditworthiness affects the security deposit, the landlord must set clear and specific criteria for the various creditworthiness levels they consider when choosing tenants (such as credit scoring).

Additionally, each potential tenant who falls within each level of creditworthiness must pay the security deposit amount that has been established for that level.

stellarik [79]

Answer:

current intrinsic value per stock = $26.35

Explanation:

year                      dividend              EPS

0                              0                       $18

1                               0                       $20.88

2                              0                       $24.22

3                              0                       $28.10

4                              0                       $32.59

5                              0                       $37.81

6                              $12.59              $41.97

growth rate up to year 5 = 16%

ROE growth rate starting year 6 = 11%

dividend growth rate starting year 6 = 11% x (1 - 30%) = 7.7%

cost of equity = 24%

horizon value at year 5 = $12.59 / (24% - 7.7%) = $77.24

current intrinsic value per stock = $77.24 / 1.24%⁵ = $26.35

Scilla [17]

Answer:

MW Company

Activity rate for order process = $54,120/660

= $82 per order

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Production = 16,500 units

Direct labor = 19,800 hours

Machine hours = 21,450 hours

No. of orders = 660

No. of shipments = 165

Order-processing cost pool = $54,120

Shipping cost pool = $14,025

Assembly cost pool = $71,280

Activity rate for order process = $54,120/660

= $82 per order

b) MW Company uses an activity-based costing system to identify its activities into cost pools and assign the cost of each activity pool to the products and services according to their actual consumption of the activities.  The activity-based costing technique provides a more accurate method for determining the costs of products and services.  As a more accurate method for pricing decisions than other traditional methods, activity-based costing technique increases management's understanding of overheads and cost drivers and makes activities that are costly and non-value adding to become more visible, allowing managers to reduce or eliminate them, because these activities add costs to the production system.
