ra1l [238]

Question:

The Stanton Stationery Shoppe wants to acquire The Carlysle Card Gallery for $450,000. Stanton expects the merger to provide incremental earnings of about $70,000 a year for 10 years. Carol Stanton has calculated the marginal cost of capital for this investment to be 8%. Conduct a capital budgeting analysis to determine whether she should purchase The Carlysle Card Gallery.

Answer:

Capital Budgeting Analysis is a process of evaluating how we invest in capital assets; i.e. assets that provide cash flow benefits for more than one year.

An organization has to take many decisions regarding the expansion of business and investment. To do that, they will require the help of NPV method and base its decision on the same.

Net present value is used in Capital budgeting to analyze the profitability of a project or investment. It is calculated by taking the difference between the present value of cash inflows and present value of cash outflows over a period of time.

As the name suggests, net present value is nothing but net off of the present value of cash inflows and outflows by discounting the flows at a specified rate.

From the question the following are given:

  1. Capital Expenditure = $450,000
  2. Useful life of expenditure = 10 years
  3. Annual return from expenditure = $70,000
  4. Marginal cost of Capital = 8%

Step 1:                                  

It's formula is given as:

Formula for NPV

NPV = (Cash flows)/( 1+r)i

<em>Where</em>

i- Initial Investment

Cash flows= Cash flows in the time period

r  = Discount rate

i = time period

Computing with a spreadsheet, the Net Present Value of the Investment is given at $ 19,706.

Kindly see attached spreadsheet.

Judgement: Since the NPV is positive the investment is profitable and hence Nice Ltd can go ahead with the expansion.

Cheers!

Which of the following is true about duration and modified duration?
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

The truth about Macaulay Duration and Modified Duration is:

d. All are true.

Explanation:

Principally, the Macaulay Duration, used mainly with immunization strategies, measures the weighted average time an investor holds a bond until the period when the present value of the bond’s cash flows equals to the initial bond amount.

On the other hand, the Modified Duration, providing a risk measure by being sensitive to interest rates, identifies the amount by which the duration changes for each percentage change in the yield and, at the same time, measures how the amount of a change in the interest rates impacts a bond's price.

If the price elasticity of supply is 0.5 and the quantity supplied decreases by 6%, then the price must have decreased by 3%. a.
PolarNik [594]

Answer: False

Explanation:

The price elasticity of supply measures the change in quantity supplied when the price changes.

The basic trend is that when price increases, quantity supplied increases as well. The reverse is true.

Price elasticity of supply = %Change in quantity supplied / % change in price

0.5 = -6% / Change in price

0.5 * Change in price = -6%

Change in price = -6% / 0.5

= -12%

The statement above is therefore false because price should have reduced by 12% for quantity supplied to reduce by 6%
