You are considering two mutually exclusive projects with the following cash flows. Which project(s) should you accept if the dis

larisa [96]

Answer:

NPV Project A = - $825.31

NPV Project B = $6119.89

So, at a discount rate of 8.5%, Project B should be accepted.

NPV Project A = - $6804

Npv Project B = - $3764.48

So, at a discount rate of 13%, neither of the projects should be accepted.

Explanation:

One of the methods to evaluate a project is to determine the NPV or Net Present Value from the project. If a project provides a positive NPV after discounting the cash flows from the project at a set discount rate, the project should be accepted. If the project gives a negative NPV, the project should be discarded.

The NPV is calculated as follows,

NPV = CF1 / (1+r) + CF2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + CFn / (1+r)^n - Initial cost

Where,

CF1, CF2, ... represents the cash flows in year 1 and year 2 and so on
r is the discount rate

At 8.5% discount rate

NPV Project A = 31000/(1+0.085) + 31000/(1+0.085)^2 + 31000/(1+0.085)^3 - 80000

NPV Project A = - $825.31

NPV Project B = 110000 / (1+0.085)^3 - 80000

NPV Project B = $6119.89

So, at a discount rate of 8.5%, Project B should be accepted.

At 13% discount rate

NPV Project A = 31000/(1+0.13) + 31000/(1+0.13)^2 + 31000/(1+0.13)^3 - 80000

NPV Project A = - $6804

NPV Project B = 110000 / (1+0.13)^3 - 80000

Npv Project B = - $3764.48

So, at a discount rate of 13%, neither of the projects should be accepted.

During one pay period, your company distributes $130,500 to employees as net pay. the income tax withholdings were $19,000 and t

zysi [14]

Given:
130,500 net pay to employees
19,000 income tax withholding
5,000 FICA withholding

130,500 + 19,000 + 5,000 + 5,000 = 159,500

The total wages and payroll tax expense to the company for this pay period, excluding any unemployment taxes, is $159,500.

The 5,000 is added twice because the first 5,000 is withheld from the employees salary as the employees share. The employer also has to pay off 5,000 as employer's share to the employee's FICA withholding. Thus, the presence of the 2nd 5,000.

FICA, Federal Insurance Contributions Act, is composed of
1) 6.2 % Social Security tax;
2) 1.45 % Medicare tax (the “regular” Medicare tax); and
3) 0.9 % of a Medicare surtax starting 2013 for employees earning over $200,000.

On January 1, Year 2, the Arlington Company had 100,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. On July 1, Year 2, the co

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is 137,500 Shares.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:

Time period Jan.1 - Jul.1 = 6 months

So, first we calculate the weighted average before dividend.

Weighted average before dividend shares outstanding = (100,000 × 6 ÷ 12) + (120,000 × 6 ÷ 12)

= 50,000 + 60,000 = 110,000

Now we can calculate the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during Year 2 by using following formula:

Weighted-average number of common shares outstanding = Weighted average before dividend shares outstanding + Dividend on outstanding Shares

By putting the value we get,

= 110,000 + 25% × 110,000

= 110,000 + 27,500

= 137,500 Shares

If the Citrus Growers Association grows $1 million worth of oranges, sells $500,000 worth of oranges to consumers, uses the rest

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The answer is $3 500 000

Explanation:

The above transactions affect the Consumption component in GDP.

Citrus Grower's contribution to GDP = $3 million + $500,000= $3 500 000

$1 million worth of oranges grown was not included because the amount was the estimated value of oranges and not actual value of oranges consumed.
