Answer:
The value of the Share of Zeke after the new Expansion is $25.
Explanation:
As there was no growth in the dividend before change, Price of the share from a stable dividend payment can be calculated by following formula.
Price = Dividend / Required rate of return
As we have the share price and the dividend amount we need to calculate the required rate of return.
Required rate of return = Dividend / Price
Placing value in the formula
Required rate of return = $2.50 / $25.00 = 0.1 = 10%
After New Expansion
Dividend = $1.50
Growth rate = 4%
The share price can be calculated by the dividend growth formula, as follow
Price of share = Dividend / (Rate of return - growth rate)
Price of share = $1.50 / (10% - 4%)
Price of share = $1.50 / 6%
Price of share = $25
Answer:
The amount of sales that will be necessary to earn the desired profit is 16000 units
Explanation:
To get the amount of sales to earn $10000, we make the following equation.
Profit =Sales -variable cost-fixed cost
Profit=10000
Sales=$5.00x
Variable cost= $2.50x
Fixed cost=$30,000
Replacing,
10000=5x-2.5x-30000
10000+30000=2.5x
x=40000/2.5
x=16000
Answer: $329.75
Explanation:
The one year subscription is $40 per year. It is estimated that the average age of current subscribers is 38 and they will leave on average to 78. This means that they will leave for,
= 78 - 38
= 40 years
Evans Ltd average interest rate on long-term debt is 12% so this means that we can use that 12% as a discount rate for the cash-flow expected.
I have attached a Present Value Interest Factor of an Annuity table to this question. It helps calculate annuities faster.
The above can be treated as an annuity because the $40 is constant every year.
The present value of the $40 over 40 years can be calculated by,
= $40 * present value Interest Factor of an Annuity for 40 years at 12% (look at the table for where 40 years on the y axis intersects with 12% on the x axis)
= $40 * 8.2438 (this is the figure when it is not rounded off to 3 dp)
= $329.752
= $329.75
This shows that the lifetime flat fee of $480 is more profitable for Evans Ltd as opposed to the yearly subscription. They should therefore try to sell more of the lifetime contract with the flat fee.
Answer:
d. It will have a credit balance of $100,000.
Explanation:
In the income statement, the total revenues and the total expenses are recorded.
If the total revenues are more than the total expenditure then the company earns net income
And, If the total revenues are less than the total expenditure then the company have a net loss
This net income or net loss would reflect in the statement of the retained earning account.
So, the balance of income summary equals to
= Sales - expenses
= $540,000 - $440,000
= $100,000
The dividend should be deducted from the retained earning account. Hence, it will not be consider here
