Answer:

A. 22.38; 22.38

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what The PE ratio will be____ if the firm issues the dividend as compared to ____ if the firm does the share repurchase

Calculation to determine PE ratio If the firm issues the dividend:

First step is to calculate the Dividends per share

Dividends per share = $10,000/2,000 shares

Dividends per share= $5.00

Now let calculate the P/E

P/E = ($52-5.00)/$2.10

P/E = 22.38

Calculation to determine the P/E If the firm does the share repurchase:

First step is to calculate the Shares repurchased

Shares repurchased = $10,000/$52

Shares repurchased = 192.31

Second step is to calculate the EPS after repurchase

EPS after repurchase = ($2.10 ×2,000) /(2,000 -192.31)

EPS after repurchase= $2.3234

Now let calculate the P/E

P/E= $52 / $2.3234

P/E= 22.38

Therefore The PE ratio will be 22.38 if the firm issues the dividend as compared to 22.38 if the firm does the share repurchase

You are considering in investing one of the two options: Investment A requires a $255,000 upfront payment from you and generates
Ainat [17]

Answer:

Option (E) Never

Explanation:

NPV from Investment Project 1 = ($255,000) + $21,000 / (r)

NPV from Investment Project 2 = ($175,000) + $29,000 / (r)

The question says that find the number of years that equals the total return which means the NPV from both investments is equal:

($255,000) + $21,000 / (r) = ($175,000) + $29,000 / (r)

$21,000 / (r) - $29,000 / (r) = $255,000 - $175,000

-$8000 / r = $80,000

r = - 8000 / 80000 = -0.01 = - 10%

The negative sign shows that project A can not make a positive NPV that will be equal to that of project B and vice versa. It can also be illustrated by putting the value of r in "NPV from Investment Project 1"

NPV from Investment Project 1 = ($255,000) + 21000 / -0.01

= ($255,000) - $210,000 = ($465,000)

This shows that the company will have to make losses of $465,000 which is not possible because company will not select projects with negative NPVs.

A manager wants to determine the number of containers to use for incoming parts for a kanban system to be installed next month.
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

a. 1.51 containers

b. Fewer

Explanation:

The computations are shown below:

a. The number of containers would be

= Annual demand × time × (1 + inefficiency factor) ÷ holding pieces

= 70 × 0.75 × (1 + 0.15) ÷ 40

= 1.51 containers

The time is converted from minutes to hour i.e 45 minutes ÷ 60 minutes = 0.75

b. If the system improves, the fewer containers are required i.e 2 containers approximate because inefficiency factor got decreased

For a recent year, McDonald's Company-owned restaurants had the following sales and expenses (in millions): Sales $25,700 Food a
Aleks [24]

Answer:

a. $9,338

b. 0.363

Explanation:

a. Contribution Margin  = Sales - Variable Cost

Where Sales = $25,700

Variable Cost = Food & Packaging + Payroll + 40% x General, Selling and Administrative expenses

V.C. = 8,982 + 6,500 + 40% * 3,700

V.C = 8,982 + 6,500 + 1,480

= $16,362

Therefore, Contribution Margin  = Sales - Variable Cost  

= $25,700 - $16,362

=$9,338

b. McDonald's contribution margin ratio  = Contribution Margin / Sales

= $9,338 / $25,700

= 0.363
