Financial data for Stirling Inc. for last year are as follows:

Tom [10]

Answer:

profit margin: 6.04%

Assets turnover: 2.08

ROI 25.89%

Residual Income 137,330

Explanation:

profit margin:

income/sales = 326,480/5,404,000 = 0.060414507 = 6.0414507%

Assets turnover:

$\frac{net \: sales}{average \: assets} \\\\where:\\average \: assets = \frac{ending + beginning}{2}$

(2,561,000 + 2,629,000)/2 = 2,595,000 average assets

5,404,000/2,595,000 = 2.082466281 Assets TO

ROI

$\frac{net \: income}{average \: equity} \\\\where:\\average \: equity= \frac{ending + beginning}{2}$

(1,206,000+1,316,000)/2 = 1,261,000 average equity

326,480/1,261,000 = 25.890563%

Residual Income:

current income - income at desired RoR

That means calculate which income generates a ROI of 15% which is the minimum required return:

ROI = income / equity = 0.15

X/1,261,000 = 0.15

X=1,261,000 x 0.15 = 189,150

Now we calculate the diference between this number and the current income.

326,480 - 189,150 = 137,330 Residual Income

liraira [26]

Answer:

the present value is $88,087.08

Explanation:

The computation of the present value is shown below:

As we know that

Future value = Present value × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years

$203,000 = Present value × (1 + 0.11)^8

So, the present value is $88,087.08

hence, the present value is $88,087.08
