You are considering buying a company using leveraged buyout. The company is projected to have sales of 500 million each year in
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Net income=  $33 million

Explanation:

A leveraged buyout is a buyout of an entity by it's own managers/board members mostly through debt financing. Now the expected sales after the buyout is 500 million, we are asked to calculate net income only in the first year. First of all lets see what net income is. Net income is the remaining amount of income after having paid all the expenses which is mostly the residual income available for either distribution to shareholders or transfer to retained earnings.

The formula for net income is as follows:

Net income/profit= Sales revenue - COGS - Administrative expenses- depreciation and amortization - Interest expense - Tax

Let first calculate COGS & other administrative expense, depreciation and interest expenses first.

COGS & ADMIN: 500*0.6=300 m

Depreciation: 500*0.05 =25m

Interest expense for the year: 1500 * 0.08= 120m

Now lets substitute values in the formula mentioned above:

Income before taxes: 500m - 300m - 25m - 120m

Income before taxes: 55m

Income after taxes; 55m - 22m (taxes= 55*40%)

Net income=  $33 million

You can receive 400,000 five years from today or 1,000,000 thirty years from today. what interest rate makes them equivalent?
deff fn [24]

Answer:

3.73%

Explanation:

The computation of the rate of interest that makes the equivalent is shown below:

As we know that

Present value=Cash flow × Present value discounting factor ( interest rate% , time period)

Let us assume the interest rate be x

where,

Present value of $400,000 is

= $400,000 ÷ 1.0x ^5

And,

Present value of $1,000,000 be

= $1,000,000 ÷ 1.0x^30

Now eqaute these two equations

$400,000 ÷ 1.0x^5 = $1,000,000 ÷ 1.0x^30

(1.0x^30) ÷ (1.0x^5) = $1,000,000 ÷ $400,000

1.0x^(30 - 5)=2.5

1.0x^25=2.5

1.0x = (2.5)^(1 ÷ 25)

x =1.03733158 - 1

= 3.73%

The loan amount (principal) is $50,000 and the annual interest paid is $5,500. What is the annual interest rate
Mumz [18]

Answer:

The interest rate is 11%

Explanation:

The loan amount = $50000

Interest amount = $5500

Since the annual interest amount and the principal amount is given so we have to find the interest rate by using the given information. Below is the formula to find the interest rate.

Let the interest rate = x

Principal × interest rate = Interest amount

$50000 × r = $5500

r  = $5500 / $50000

r = 0.11 or 11%

The interest rate is 11%
