Answer:
$317,500
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of bad debt expense is shown below:-
Bad debt expenses = (Accounts receivable × Outstanding receivable percentage) - Opening Allowance for doubtful debts
= ($6.57 million × 5%) - $11,000
= $317,500
Therefore for computing the bad debt expense we simply applied the above formula.
Answer:
$11,098.94
Explanation:
first we must calculate the future value of the 7 year annuity:
FV of an annuity = p x {[(1 + r)ⁿ - 1] / r}
- p = $13,100
- r = 17.18%
- n = 7
FV of an annuity = $13,100 x {(1.1718⁷ - 1) / 0.1718} = $13,100 x 11.8377 = $155,073.56
since he wants to have $176,000, he needs $20,926.44 more in 7 years (= $176,000 - $155,073.56)
X = FV / (1 + r)ⁿ
- future value =
- n = 4 years
- r = 17.18%
X = $20,926.44 / 1.1718⁴ = $11,098.94
Answer:
Periodic payment = $3,881.88 (Approx).
Explanation:
Given:
Present value of annuity = $36,500
Rate = 6.5% = 0.065
Number of payment = 15
Computation:
![Present\ value\ of\ annuity = periodic\ payment[\frac{1-(1+r)^{-n}}{r} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Present%5C%20value%5C%20of%5C%20annuity%20%3D%20periodic%5C%20payment%5B%5Cfrac%7B1-%281%2Br%29%5E%7B-n%7D%7D%7Br%7D%20%5D)

Periodic payment = $3,881.88 (Approx).
Answer:
P0 = $66.6429 rounded off to $66.64
Option c is the correct answer
Explanation:
Using the two stage growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock today. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula to calculate the price of the stock today is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g1) / (1+r) + D0 * (1+g1)^2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + D0 * (1+g1)^n / (1+r)^n + [(D0 * (1+g1)^n * (1+g2) / (r - g2)) / (1+r)^n]
Where,
- g1 is the initial growth rate
- g2 is the constant growth rate
- r is the required rate of return
P0 = 2* (1+0.2) / (1+0.1) + 2 * (1+0.2)^2 / (1+0.1)^2 + 2 * (1+0.2)^3 / (1+0.1)^3
+ 2 * (1+0.2)^4 / (1+0.1)^4 + 2 * (1+0.2)^5 / (1+0.1)^5 +
[(2 * (1+0.2)^5 * (1+0.04) / (0.1 - 0.04)) / (1+0.1)^5]
P0 = $66.6429 rounded off to $66.64
