1 year

Explanation:

Payback period calculates the amount of the time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from its cumulative cash flows.

For project A:

Amount invested = $-22,000

Amount recovered in year 1 = $-22,000 + $25,000 =$-3000

The amount invested is recovered In 22,000 / $25,000 = 0.88 years

For project B:

Amount invested = $-22,000

Amount recovered in year 1 = $-22,000 + $22,000 = 0

The amount invested is recovered in a year

Answer:

$468,844 approx.

Explanation:

Assumption: Since the question is incomplete, with the available information it has been construed that calculation of bond price is required and the question has been solved accordingly.

The price of a bond is the present value of future cash receipts it generates to the investor in the form of interest stream and principal stream.

$B_{0} = \frac{i}{(1\ +\ ytm)^{1} }\ +\ \frac{i}{(1\ +\ ytm)^{2} }\ +.....+\frac{i}{(1\ +\ ytm)^{n} } \ + \frac{RV}{(1\ +\ ytm)^{n} }$

wherein,

$B_{0}$ = price of bond as on today

i = annual coupon payments

ytm= investor's expectation of interest or market rate of interest on similar bonds

RV = Redemption value of such bonds assumed to be the face value

n = term to maturity

$B_{0} = \frac{22500}{(1\ +\ .05)^{1} }\ +\ \frac{22500}{(1\ +\ .05)^{2} }\ +.....+\frac{22500}{(1\ +\ .05)^{20} } \ + \frac{500000}{(1\ +\ .05)^{20} }$

$B_{0}=$ 12.46221 × 22,500 + 0.376889 × 22,500 = 280,399.725 + 188444.5

$B_{0} =$ $468,844 approx

This is the present value of the bond which is lower than it's face value because market rate of return of similar bonds is higher than the coupon rate of payment by Westside Corporation.

Morgan Sondgeroth Inc. began operations in January 2018 and reported the following results for each of its 3 years of operations

stepan [7]

Answer:

Part A) Book Value = $1,080,000

Part B) Book Value = $1,050,000

Explanation:

Part 1: To compute the book value of the common stock at December 31, 2020

To do this, we consider both the preferred and common stock values as follows:

Stockholder's equity:

Preferred Stock = $500,000

Common stock = $750,000

Retained earnings: To calculate retained earnings we need to deduct dividends in arrears to prefered stock holders and then ascribe the remaining value to retained earnings.

Dividend in Arrears= 3 years @ 8% interest per year

= 500,000 x 0.08 x 3= $120,000

Remaining earnings for available to common share holders

= Retained earnings balance- dividend paid to prferred stock holders.

=$800,000 (net income for 2020)- $40,000 (net loss for 2019) - $260,000 (net loss for 2018)

= $800,000-$40,000-$260,000

= $500,000 - Dividend in arrears

= $500,000- $120,000

= $380,000

Book Value of Stockholders' equity

Common Stock equity + Balance of retained earnings

= $700,000 + $380,000

= $1,080,000

The book value per share = $1,080,000/ outstanding shares

= $1,080,000/750,000= $1.44

Part 2: To compute the book value of the common stock at December 31, 2020 Preference stock has liquidating value of $106 per share

Stockholder's equity:

Preferred Stock = $500,000

Preferred stock liquidating premium = (106-100) x 5000

= $6 x 5000= $30,000

Common stock = $750,000

Retained earnings: To calculate retained earnings we need to deduct dividends in arrears to prefered stock holders and then ascribe the remaining value to retained earnings.

Dividend in Arrears= 3 years @ 8% interest per year

= 500,000 x 0.08 x 3= $120,000

Remaining earnings for available to common share holders

= Retained earnings balance- net losses from previous years - dividend paid to prferred stock holders - liquadating premium to preferred stock

=$800,000 (net income for 2020)- $40,000 (net loss for 2019) - $260,000 (net loss for 2018)

= $800,000-$40,000-$260,000

= $500,000 - Dividend in arrears - liquidating

= $500,000- $120,000- $30,000

= $350,000

Book Value of Stockholders' equity

Common Stock equity + Balance of retained earnings

= $700,000 + $350,000

= $1,050,000

The book value per share = $1,080,000/ outstanding shares

= $1,050,000/750,000= $1.4

Kohler Inc. wants to replace a 10 year old machine with a new machine that is more efficient. The old machine cost $80,000 when

Reptile [31]

Answer:

no option is correct, the correct answer is $12,630

Explanation:

after tax salvage value of old machine = $12,000 - [($12,000 - $15,000) x 21%] = $12,000 - (-$3,000 x 21%) = $12,000 - -$630 = $12,630

the tax shield generated by this loss (market value is lower than book value) = $630

the cash received form the sale = $12,000

the combined effect = $12,000 + $630 = $12,630
