Hybrid cars are touted as a "green" alternative; however,the financial aspects of hybrid ownership are not as clear. Consider th

lord [1]

Answer:

a)

the hybrid model initially costs $5,200 more than the regular model, plus you have another $330 in extra ownership costs per year. If you plan to own the hybrid car for 6 years, then you must recoup $5,200 / 6 = $866.67 + $330 = $1,196.67 per year.

the cost of driving 1 mile with the hybrid car = $3.60 / 27 = $0.1333

the cost of driving 1 mile with the regular model = $3.60 / 19 = $0.1895

you will save = $0.0562 per mile driven

you would need to drive $1,196.67 / $0.0562 = 21,293 miles per year to make the decision worth it

b)

if you only drive 15,500 miles per year, then you would need to save $0.0772 per mile

that would only result if gasoline's price was:

x/19 - x/27 = 0.0772

0.0526x - 0.037x = 0.0772

0.0156x = 0.0772

x = 0.0772 / 0.0156 = $4.95 per gallon

c)

you must first determine the present value of all additional expenses related to purchasing a hybrid:

year cash flow

0 -5,200

1 -330

2 -330

3 -330

4 -330

5 -330

6 -330

Using a financial calculator, the PV = -$6,637.24

now we must use an annuity formula to determine the annual savings required using a 10% discount rate and 6 periods:

annual savings = $6,637.24 / 4.3553 (PV annuity factor, 10%, 6 periods) = $1,523.95

so you must save $1,523.95 per year and that is equivalent to $1,523.95 / $0.0562 = 27,116.47 = 27,116 miles

d)

you also need to save $1,523.95, but you only drive 15,500 miles, so the savings per mile = $0.0983

x/19 - x/27 = 0.0983

0.0526x - 0.037x = 0.0983

0.0156x = 0.0983

x = 0.0983 / 0.0156 = $6.30 per gallon

3. Vocabulary test. Explain the differences between: a. Real and financial assets. b. Capital budgeting and financing decisions.

VikaD [51]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

a) A real asset is a Tangible Asset, Like a machine, a Land or a Building. Real Assets are used to generate resources and, therefore, produce changes in the financial situation of the company that owns them. While a financial asset on the other hand constitutes the right to collect an account in the future. In the case of companies, you can think of an account or document receivable; For natural persons, a financial asset can be a document that compares a plaque investment in a banking institution and that will produce a cash flow in the future.

b) Investment projects are independent, perfectly divisible, and the company can invest any amount of money in a project. Only investment opportunities existing at the present time and not future are considered. While capital budgeting, it is a projection either in the short term or in the long term, and the reasons for making this budget are that: Benefits from the point of view of administrative planning and control., an investment proposal must be judged in relation to whether it provides a return equal to or greater than that required by investors y the evaluation of projects through mathematical-financial methods.

c) When a corporation is established, its shares may be in the hands of a small group of investors, perhaps the company's administrators plus some sponsors. In this case, the shares are not sold to the public and the company is closed. Over time, if the company grows and new shares are issued to raise capital, these shares go public. The company becomes a public company.

d) Limited liability means that the liability of each partner's debt is limited to their investment in the business, that is, they cannot be held personally responsible for the debts of other parties, if the company is sued or forced to close, the Each partner's business assets may be liquidated, but his personal assets are safe. Furthermore, unlimited liability means that all parties are responsible for all debts of the company, regardless of how it was created. If a partner commits acts that cause the business to reconcile, all parties become part of the process, not just the partners whose actions caused the judgment.

TJ's and Corner Grocery are all-equity firms. TJ's has 2,500 shares outstanding at a market price of $16.70 a share. Corner Groc

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

$1.3 per share

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Number of shares outstanding of TJ = 2,500

Market price = $16.70

Number of shares outstanding of Corner Grocery = 3,000

Price per share of Corner Grocery = $22.50

Cost of acquiring TJ's share = $45,000

Now,

Merger Premium per share = [ Cost of acquiring TJ's share - Market price of TJ's shares ] ÷ Number shares TJ's outstanding

= [ $45,000 - ( $16.70 × 2,500)] ÷ 2,500

= [ $45,000 - $41,750 ] ÷ 2,500

= $3,250 ÷ 2,500

= $1.3 per share
