Answer:

0.36

Explanation:

Cost of equity of 16.8%,

Pretax cost of debt of 8.1%

Return on assets of 14.5%

As per NN proposition: Cost of equity = Return on asset + D/E ratio (Return on asset-Cost of debt)

0.168 = 0.145 + D/E (0.145 - 0.082)

0.168 - 0.145 = D/E (0.064)

0.023 =  D/E (0.064)

D/E = 0.023/0.064

D/E = 0.359375

D/E = 0.36

Thus, the debt-equity ratio is 0.36

andre [41]

The answer is a statement of future intent. It is a statement of an intention has to do something in the future is not an offer. Agreements to agree arise when two parties are conversing an event involving future transactions which are still in progress. A statement of future intent is not a legally binding contract. It only designates an agreement by the two parties involved in the negotiation to attempt to form a future agreement. An agreement to agree is not binding if the matter under discussion is still in argument.

The following information pertains to Company A's Year 1 inventory activities:
prisoha [69]

Answer:

1 & 5) FIFO Ending Inventory $ 10,800

2) moving average:   $  10,400

3) weighted average $  9,520

4) LIFO                       $  8,800

Explanation:

January 1 Beg Inv  90 $40 subtotal: $   3,600

May 15 Purchase 160 $65 subtotal:<u>  $ 10,400   </u>

                units:   250          total:       $ 14,000

April 11 Sale 50 $70

July 25 Sale 30 $75

Total sales   80 units

Ending Inventory: 250 - 80 = 170 units

<u> FIFO </u>the ending inventory is compose of the last nits

As it follows a crhonological order is the same under periodic and perpetual:

We start from the top

May 15th 160 at 65$   $10,400

170 - 160 units = 10 units

January 1 Beg Inv  10 units at  $40 = $ 400

Total ending inventory: $ 10,800

<u>Moving average: </u>

the average is calculate based on the aailable good at hand before eahc purchase:

At April 11th the company's available goods are the beginning invenory thus the COGS is

50 units x 40 dollars each = 2,000

Then, at July 25th the inventory available is:

40 units at $40 dollars          =    1,600

and 160 units at 65 dollars   = <u> 10,400  </u>

total   200 units at                    12,000

Average: $12,000 / 200 units = $60 per unit

COGS: 30 units x $60 = 1,800

Total cost: 2,000 + 1,600 = 3,600

Ending inventory: 14,000 - 3,600 = 10,400

<u>Weighted average:</u>

we divide total goods available over the total units purchased:

14,000 / 250  = 56 dollar per unit

ending inventory 170 units x 56 per unit = $ 9,520

<u>LIFO:</u>

the last units are sold while the first are ending inventory we start from the top part :

January 1 Beg Inv  90 $40 subtotal: $   3,600

170 units - 90 units = 80 units

May 15 Purchase 80 $65 subtotal:   $<u>   5,200  </u>

                                      Total             $    8,800

Coronado Industries is being sued for illness caused to local residents as a result of negligence on the company's part in permi
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

b) a loss contingency of $5,400,000 and disclose an additional contingency of up to $3,600,000.

Explanation:

There are 2 conditions that must be met in making provisions, as stated by the International Accounting Standards (IAS 37). They are:

1. Present Obligation

2. Are outflows probable (i.e. more likely than not)

3. Can the outflows be reliably measured.

1. Present Obligation

In the given scenario, it was mentioned that there is a present obligation because ''Coronado Industries is being sued for illness caused to local residents as a result of negligence on the company's part'' hence this already informs that there is an obligation.

2. Are outflows probable (i.e. more likely than not)

From the scenario, it can be gathered that outflows are probable because the lawyer has stated ''it is probable that Coronado will lose the suit and be found liable'' that implies that there is a liability to be recognised

3. Can the outflows be reliably measured.

It is stated in the scenario that ''However, the lawyer states that the most probable cost is $5,430,000'' Hence, this represents a reliable estimate.

Furthermore, the other likely fraction in the worse case scenario should be shown in the disclosures or additional information.
