Last year, Bad Tattoo Co. had additions to retained earnings of $4,780 on sales of $95,560. The company had costs of $75,720, di

fredd [130]

Answer:

e. $6,042

Explanation:

Net income of Bad tattoo co. = Addition of retained earnings + Dividends

= $4,780 + $2,980

= $7,760

Income before tax of Bad tattoo Co = Net income / (1-tax rate)

= $7,760 / (1-34%)

= $7,760 / 0.66

= $11,758

But,

Income before tax = Sales - Costs

- Depreciation expense - Interest expense

$11,758 = $95,560 - $75,720 - Depreciation expense - $2,040

$11,758 = $19,840 - Depreciation expense - $2,040

Depreciation expense = $19,840 - $11,758 - $2,040

Depreciation expense = $6,042

Assume that a college student spends her income on Coke and Snickers. During finals week, the price of a Snickers candy bar is $

Ratling [72]

Answer:

The answer is: 10 Snickers bars and 20 cans of Coke.

Explanation:

To find out what combination she can buy with her total income ($32.50) we can just multiply the price of each product by its quantity;

If she buys 24 snickers bars and 12 cans of coke she will spend:

(24 x $0.75) + (12 x $1.25) = $33 SHE CAN´T AFFORD TO BUY

If she buys 24 snickers bars and 12 cans of coke she will spend:

(22 x $0.75) + (14 x $1.25) = $34 SHE CAN´T AFFORD TO BUY

If she buys 24 snickers bars and 12 cans of coke she will spend:

(15 x $0.75) + (18 x $1.25) = $33.75 SHE CAN´T AFFORD TO BUY

If she buys 24 snickers bars and 12 cans of coke she will spend:

(10 x $0.75) + (20 x $1.25) = $32.50 <u> </u><u>SHE CAN AFFORD TO BUY</u>

PQR Corporation has a Beta of 1.5. The risk-free rate is 6%, and the market risk premium is 9%. What is the required rate of ret

shusha [124]

Answer:

1. Using CAPM, the required return is;

Required return = risk free rate + beta * market risk premium

= 6% + 1.5 * 9%

= 19.5%

2. First find the portfolio beta which is a weighted average of the individual betas;

= (60% * 2.4) + (40% * 0.9)

= 1.8

Now use CAPM

= risk free rate + beta * (Market return - risk free rate)

= 4% + 1.8 * (13% - 4%)

= 20.2%

3.Geometric average can be calculated by;

=( ((1 + r1) * (1 + r2) * (1 + r3)) ^1/n) - 1

= (((1 + 6%) * (1 + 10%) * (1 - 6%)) ^ 1/3) - 1

= ‭(1.09604‬^1/3) - 1

= 3.1%
