Answer:
The actual return on investment was 16.67%
Explanation:
the Return on Investment, will be the net income copared with the own funds (equity). So, we will compare the 50,000 net income with the owner's equity 300,000
50,000/300,000 = 0.1667 = 16.67%
The return on investment is 16.67% This means for every dollar of equity the comany earn 16.67 cent
It also means the company will return their entire investment in:
1/ROI = 1/0.166666 = 6 years
The primary concern is security.
Answer:
The amount of dividends distributed to preferred stockholders in 2017 is $10000.
Explanation:
The preferred stock is non cumulative which means that if the company is unable to pay dividends on preferred stock in a certain year, the dividend for that year will not be accumulated and will not be paid in the next year.
Thus, the company only paid a dividend of $2700 in 2016 and the remaining dividends will not be payable by the company in year 2017.
The dividend on each share of preferred stock per year is = 10 * 0.05 = $0.5 per share
The number of shares of preferred stock are 20000.
The total dividends that will be paid to preferred stock holders in 2017 is = 0.5 * 20000 = $10000
Thus, out of the $27000 dividends of 2017, $10000 was distributed to preferred stockholders.
Answer: 7.43%
Explanation:
The yield to maturity simply refers to the total return that is expected on a bond as long as the bond is held till it matures.
In this case, since the investor is indifferent between this municipal bond and an otherwise identical taxable corporate bond, the yield to maturity of the corporate bond will be:
4.83% = Corporate bond YTM × ( 1- 35%)
4.83% = Corporate bond YTM × 65%
Corporate bond YTM = 4.83% / 65%
Corporate bond YTM = 0.0483/0.65
Corporate bond YTM = 7.43%
The yield to maturity of the corporate bond is 7.43%
Answer:
C) 4.2 years
Explanation:
The computation of the payback period is as follows;
As we know that
Payback Period = Initial cost ÷ Annual net cash flow
Here
Initial cost = $278000
Annual net cash flow = Incremental after tax + Depreciation per year
where,
Depreciation per year = (Original cost - Salvage value) ÷ Estimated Life
= ($278,000 - $30,000) ÷ 8 years
= $31,000
Annual net cash flow is
= $35000 + $31000
= $66000
So,
Payback Period is
= $278000 ÷ $66000
= 4.2 Years
