Answer:

Arithmetic = 3%

Geometric = 2.37%

Explanation:

The arithmetic average of 'n' returns is given by:

A = \frac{\sum r_i}{n}

For five returns of 5% ,21%, -12%, 7%, and -6%:

A=\frac{0.05+0.21-0.12+0.07-0.06}{5}\\ A=0.03=3\%

The geometric average of 'n' returns is given by:

G=\sqrt[n]{(1+r_1)*(1+r_2)*...*(1+r_n)}-1

For five returns of 5% ,21%, -12%, 7%, and -6%:

G=\sqrt[5]{(1+0.05)*(1+0.21)*(1-0.12)*(1+0.07)*(1-0.06)}-1\\G=0.0237=2.37\%

Ann [662]

Answer:

A. EPS for plan 1 is $1.29 and EPS for plan 2 is $1.15

B. EPS for plan 1 is $2.90 and EPS for plan 2 is $3.53

C. Break even EBIT is $247,380 and EPS = $1.60

Explanation:

EPS = Earnings per share = Earnings before tax (EBT) divided by outstanding common stock.

A.

Plan 1

EPS = 200,000 divided by 155,000 = $1.29 per share.

Plan 2

EPS = (EBIT - interest ) all divided by common stock

EPS = ($200,000 - ($1,330,000 x 6%)) / 105,000

= $1.15 per share

B.

Plan 1

EPS = 450,000 divided by 155,000 = $2.90 per share.

Plan 2

EPS = (EBIT - interest ) all divided by common stock

EPS = ($450,000 - ($1,330,000 x 6%)) / 105,000

= $3.53 per share

C.

Break even EBIT is when

EPS (plan 1) = EPS (plan 2)

If we represent the EBIT with ?

? / 155,000 = (? - ($1,330,000 x 6%)) / 105,000

? = $247,380

EPS = $1.60
