Options:
A. $18,500,000
B. $19,000,000
C. $19,500,000
D. $20,000,000
E. $20,500,000
Answer: C. $19,500,000.
Explanation:MVA(MARKET VALUE ADDED) is a measurement that is used to describe the difference between the market value to a company and the capital contributed by both the shareholders and the bondholders.
WHEN THE MARKET VALUE ADDED IS HIGH IT SIGNIFIES THAT THE COMPANY IS GENERATING ENOUGH MONEY TO COVER THE COST OF CAPITAL.
MVA= (market value-stockholders contribution).
Market value =$39.5*1000000shares
= $39,500,000
MVA= $39,500,000-$20,000000
MVA=$19,500,000.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Month Number of instruments used Total autoclave cost
January 634 $7,466
February 534 6,526
March 734 7,148
April 934 9,028
May 834 7,744
June 1,034 8,596
July 1,234 10,009
August 1,134 9,924
<u>To determine the fixed and variable cost, we need to use the high-low method:</u>
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (10,009 - 6,526) / (1,234 - 534 )
Variable cost per unit= $4.9757 per unit
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 10,009 - (4.9757*1,234)
Fixed costs= $3,869
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 6,526 - (4.9757*534)
Fixed costs= $3,869
Total cost= 3,869 + 4.9757x
x= number of instruments
In such a case Shawn's company cannot and should not give out a dividend.
Since the company has just raised money, is growing and profitable and it is becoming hard to keep up with demand, this is the best time for the company to reinvest its profits to:
1. Hire more people/Buy more product
2. Improve processes
3. Use the profits to invest in R&D
4. Use the profits to invest in marketing and promotion
5. Invest in providing better customer service
So no dividend should be given since it can hamper the growth of a young company. The money should be used to grow the company for now and in the future all shareholders can enjoy good dividends.
Given a 7 percent interest rate, compute the present value of payments made in years 1, 2, 3, and 4 of $1,350, $1,550, $1,550, a

Answer:
The present value of cash flows is $ 5,292.13
Explanation:
The present value is today's equivalence of the company's future cash flow discounted using the 7% interest rate as a discount rate.
Formula for pv of a cash flow=cash flow/(1+r)^n
r is the 7% interest rate
n is the relevant year each cash flow relates to
PV=$1,350/(1+7%)^1+$1550/(1+7%)^2+$1550/(1+7%)^3+$1850/(1+7%)^4=
$ 5,292.13
Ensure reliable accounting. It’s kinda obvious because it’s DUMB!
