Manganese nodules are an ocean resource that is not currently economically profitable to mine. These nodules, about the size of a potato, form on the bottom of the ocean and in addition to manganese contain copper, nickel and cobalt. The main reason they are not economically viable at this time is that there are already plenty of these metals to be found on land.

A company has net working capital of $2,204, current assets of $6,475, equity of $22,215, and long-term debt of $10,535. What is

kherson [118]

Answer:

Net fixed assets is $30546.

Explanation:

Given the net working capital = $2204

The current assets of the company = $6475

The equity of the company = $22215

Long term debt of the company = $10535

Net Working Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilities

2204 = 6475 – current liabilities

Current liabilities = 6475 – 2204 = 4271

Total assets = Current Liabilities + Long term Debt + Total Equity

= 4271 + 10535 + 22215

= $37021

Total Liabilities and Stockholders Equity = Total Assets

Total assets = $37021

Total Assets = Current Assets + Net Fixed Assets

37021 = 6475 + net fixed assets

Net fixed assets = 37021 – 6475 = $30546

Firm X is being acquired by Firm Y for $35,000 worth of Firm Y stock. The incremental value of the acquisition is $2,500. Firm X

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

$34,789

Explanation:

Worth of stocks = $35,000

Incremental value of the acquisition = $2,500

Stock outstanding of Firm X = 2,000

Price per share of Firm X = $16

Stock outstanding of Firm Y = 1,200

Price per share of Firm Y = $40

Now,

Number of shares issued = 35,000 ÷ 40

= 875 shares

Value after merger = (Value of Stock x + Value of Stock Y + Synergy)

= (1200 × 40) + (2000 × 16) + 2500

= $82,500

Number of Stock Outstanding after merger = ( 1,200 + 875 )

= 2,075

Thus,

Value per share after merger = $82500 ÷ 2,075

= 39.759

Therefore,

Actual cost of acquisition

= Value per share after merger × Number of shares issued

= 875 × $39.759

= $34,789

Suppose the real risk-free rate is 2.50% and the future rate of inflation is expected to be constant at 4.10%. What rate of retu

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer: 6.6%

Explanation:

The Pure Expectations Theory believes that the future long term rate is a reflection of future short term rates.

In terms of a 5 Treasury Security then, the rate of return to be expected is the risk free rate adjusted for inflation.

The Treasury Security has no risk but for inflation risk hence this is all that should be catered for.

Rate of Return on 5 year Treasury Security = Real Risk Free Rate + Inflation Rate

= 2.5% + 4.1%

= 6.6%
