Answer:
the effective rate of interest on the debt is 6.38%
Explanation:
The computation of the effective rate of interest on the debt is shown below:
Effective rate of interest is
= ($400,000 × 6%) ÷ ($400,000 × 0.94)
= $24,000 ÷ $37,600
= 6.38%
Hence, the effective rate of interest on the debt is 6.38%
It could be determined by applying the above formula so that the correct rate could come
Answer:
2.2
Explanation:
In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below
Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)
18% = 7% + Beta × 5%
18% - 7% = Beta × 5%
11% = Beta × 5%
So, the beta would be
= 2.2
The (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also known as market risk premium and the same has applied.
Answer:
Truman has a higher inventory turnover ratio and Stapleton has a higher gross profit ratio ( D )
Explanation:
Truman sell a large number of common household items ( assuming 100 unit )
while Stapleton sells a small number of expensive items ( assuming 20 units )
lets assume : Truman sells at $5 per unit and Stapleton sells at $50 per unit
with the above assumptions
Truman gross profit ratio = $5 * 100 units = $500
Stapleton gross profit ratio = $50 * 20 units = $1000
from the above assumptions you can deduce that the gross profit made by Stapleton is higher although he sells a smaller amount of goods while Truman has a higher Turnover because of its higher number of sold units
