2. A series of five constant dollar (or real-dollar) payments, beginning with $6,000 at the end of the first year, are increasing at the rate of 5% per year. Assume that the average general inflation rate is 4%, and the market interest rate is 11% during this inflationary period. What is the equivalent present worth of the series

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The equivalent present worth of the series is $27,211.16.

Explanation:

The first thing to do is to calculate the real interest using the following formula:

1 + i = (1 + r)(1 + inf) ..................... (1)

Where;

i = market interest rate = 11%, or 0.11

r = real interest rate = ?

inf = average general inflation rate = 4%, or 0.04

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for r, we have:

1 + 0.11 = (1 + r)(1 + 0.04)

1 + r = 1.11 / 1.04

1 + r = 1.06730769230769

r =  1.06730769230769 – 1

r = 0.06730769230769

The equivalent present worth of the series can now be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value (PV) of a growing annuity as follows:

PVga = (P / (r - g)) * (1 - ((1 + g) / (1 + r))^n) .................... (2)

Where;

PVga = present value of a growing annuity or equivalent present worth of the series = ?

P = constant dollar (or real-dollar) payments = $6,000

r = real interest rate = 0.06730769230769

g = growth rate of payments = 5%, or 0.05

n = number of years = 5

Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:

PVga = (6000 / (0.06730769230769 - 0.05)) * (1 - ((1 + 0.05) / (1 + 0.06730769230769))^5)

PVga = 346,666.666666712 * 0.078493722845371

PVga = $27,211.16

Therefore, the equivalent present worth of the series is $27,211.16.

Answer:

older brother of Sasuke Uchiha and is responsible for killing all the members of their clan, sparing only Sasuke. :)

Explanation:

Answer:

Itachi was a kind-hearted human being by nature but he was FORCED into doing all the horrible acts and to live as a Rogue. It were Danzo and Tobi who played on Itachi's kindness and his love for Sasuke to force him into committing a genocide.

MPA is a very rare auto immune disease that causes antibodies to attack blood cells causing them to bleed as they become damaged and inflamed. MPA also attacks the vital organs of the body and causes bleeding, coughing, and fatigue which Itachi shows throughout the series.

1. FIFO, periodic system.

ending inventory = (6,000 x $8) + (2,000 x $7) = $62,000

2. LIFO, periodic system.

ending inventory = (6,000 x $6) + (2,000 x $7) = $50,000

3. LIFO, perpetual system.

COGS = (3,000 x $6) + ((2,000 x $7) + (4,000 x $8) = $64,000

ending inventory = $119,000 - $64,000 = $55,000

4. Average cost, periodic system.

ending inventory = 8,000 x $7 = $56,000

5. Average cost, perpetual system.

COGS = (3,000 x $6) + ((2,000 x $6.625) + (4,000 x $7.3125) = $60,500

A one-year long forward contract on a non-dividend-paying stock is entered into when the stock price is $40 and the risk-free rate of interest is 10% per annum with continuous compounding. a. What are the forward price and the initial value of the forward contract? b. Six months later, the price of the stock is $45 and the risk-free interest rate is still 10%. What are the forward price and the value of the forward contract?

Answers

Answer:

The correct solution is:

(a) $44.21

(b) $47.30

Explanation:

(a)

According to the question,

Stock price,

S = $40

Risk free rate,

r = 10%

 = 0.10

Delivery rate,

t = 1

Mathematical constant,

e = 2.72

Now,

The forward price will be:

⇒ [tex]F= S\times e^{(r\times t)}[/tex]

On substituting the estimated values, we get

⇒     [tex]=40\times 2.72^{(0.10\times 1)}[/tex]

⇒     [tex]=44.21[/tex] ($)

(b)

6 months later,

The forward price will be:

⇒ [tex]F= S\times e^{(r\times t)}[/tex]

⇒     [tex]=45\times 2.72^{(0.10\times 1)}[/tex]

⇒     [tex]=47.30[/tex] ($)

The initial value becomes assumed to be zero (0) since forward contracts constitute procurement deals which really determine the exchanging of a particular property though on a fixed period although at a price that has been accepted today.

Thornton, inc., had taxable income of $127,682 for the year. The company's marginal tax rate was 34% and its average tax rate was 23.7%. Tow much did the company have to pay in taxes for the year?
a. $28,883.
b. $29,227.
c. $27,525.
d. $30,471.

Answers

Answer:

Are you sure you copied the options correctly?

When you do the math, $127,682 x 0.237 = $30,261

the closest option is d. $30,471.

average tax rate = $30,471 / $127,682 = 23.86%,

Explanation:

the company's total tax liability = total taxable income x average tax rate

total amount of taxes paid = $127,682 x 23.7% = $30,260.63 ≈ $30,261

The formula used to calculate average tax rate = total taxes paid / total taxable revenue. To determine total taxes paid you just need to adjust this formula.

Answers

Answer:

The perfect and perhaps most commonly known is former U.S. President Richard Nixon.

Explanation:

Nixon was President of the United States from 1969 to 1974, he was elected for two periods, but he only finished one and less than half the other one. The reason is that he was embroiled in the Watergate scandal: an espionage campaign of the Democratic Party from Republican officials, including Nixon himself.

With these acts, Nixon, as the highest public official in the nation, failed to show probity, and dishonored the office of the president. He was quick to renounce the presidency, and would have faced legal challenges if not for his Vice President, Gerald Ford, who became president as his replacement, and issued him a presidential pardon immediately after.

Petersen Company has a capital budget of $1.0 million. The company wants to maintain a target capital structure that is 55% debt and 45% equity. The company forecasts that its net income this year will be $800,000. If the company follows a residual distribution model and pays all distributions as dividends, what will be its payout ratio?

Answers

Answer: 43.75%

Explanation:

Payout ratio = Dividends paid / Earnings

Company has a Capital budget of $1 million which must be financed by 45% equity.

= 1,000,000 * 45%

= $450,000

This will be taken from the Net income which would leave the following for dividends;

= 800,000 - 450,000

= $350,000

Payout ratio = 350,000/800,000

= ‭0.4375‬

= 43.75%

What was the firm's economic value added (EVA), that is, how much value did management add to stockholders' wealth during 2018?

Answers

Answer:

$1,750,000

Explanation:

Calculation for how much value did management add to stockholders' wealth during 2018

First step is to calculate the Operating income

Operating income=23 million-18 million

Operating income= 5 million

Now let calculate the EVA=

EVA= (5,000,000 *(100-35%))-($15,000,000*10%)

EVA=($5,000,000*65%)- ($15,000,000*10%)

EVA=$3,250,000-$1,500,000

EVA=$1,750,000

Therefore the amount of value that the management add to stockholders' wealth during 2018 will be $1,750,000
