Answer: 10.13%

Explanation:

The after-tax return on the preferred shares would be:

= After-tax return + Premium required

= (8.8% * (1 - 25%)) + 1%

= 7.6%

For the preferred stock to be issued at par with the above after tax return:

mixer [17]

Answer:

(a) Current ratio = 2.746

(b) Acid-test ratio = 1.423

(c) Debt to assets ratio = 47.48%  

(d) Return on assets = 6.15%

Explanation:

For Balance Sheet, pleased see attached file.

Current Ratio = Current Asset / Current Liabilities

Current Ratio = 212,800 / 77,500

Current Ratio = 2.746

Acid-Test Ratio = (Current Assets – Inventories) / Current Liabilities

Acid-Test Ratio = (212,800 – 102,500) / 77,500

Acid-Test Ratio = 1.423

Debt to Asset ratio = (Total Liabilities / Total Assets)*100

Debt to Asset ratio = (205,500 / 432,800)*100

Debt to Asset ratio = 47.48%

ROA = (Net Income / Total Assets)*100

ROA = (26,600 / 432,800)*100

ROA = 6.15%

The Current Ratio is a liquidity measure that shows the ratio between current asset and current liabilities. It tells how many dollars of the current asset are per dollar of current debts, that gives an idea of the company`s ability to perform its debts.    

The Quick Ratio is also a liquidity indicator, but using its most liquid assets, to pay its current liabilities at maturity. The inventory, although it is a current asset, is not considered, since it cannot be converted into cash in a very short term.

The difference between the Quick Ratio and the Current Ratio, implies that while both are measures of the company's ability to pay its debts, the quick ratio also tells how much the company depends on its inventory to get that objective.

The Debt to Assets ratio is a financial ratio that shows how much of a company assets is owed to its creditors.  

ROA is a financial indicator that gives an idea as to how efficient a company's management is at using its assets to generate earnings, by determining how profitable a company is relative to its total assets.

lora16 [44]

Explanation:

Appraisal refers to the process (mostly formal) to evaluate the productivity of the manpower of an organisation. It serves for administrative as well as developmental purpose.

Performance appraisal serves three important purpose-

  • Providing adequate feedback to employees based on his/her performance.
  • It can help in modifying employee behaviour and thus contributing to an effective workspace environment.
  • Providing qualitative parameters to higher-order authority through which they can adjudge their subordinates.

However, appraisals occasionally fail in their motive due to following reasons-

  • Appraisals are prone to biases prevailing in the work environment. Moreover, the neutrality of the rating authority is also often under the scanner.
  • The appraisals are often inflicted by sampling error. The conclusion of few cannot be generalised on all.
  • Appraisals don’t take into account the variability of the employee's performance, Rather it relies on the end performance and the start.
