Year Cashflow [email protected]% PV [email protected]% PV
$ $ $
0 (1,100) 1 (1,100) 1 (1,100)
1-8 47.4 5.3349 252.87 7.0197 332.73
8 1,000 0.4665 465.5 0.7894 789.4
NPV (381.63) NPV 22.13
Kd = LR + NPV1/NPV1+NPV2 x (HR – LR)
Kd = 3 + 22.13/22.13 + 381.63 x (10 – 3)
Kd = 3 + 22.13/403.76 x 7
Kd = 3 + 0.38
Kd = 3.38%
Explanation:
Cost of debt is calculated based on internal rate of return formula. In year 0, we will consider the current market price of the bond as cashflow. In year 1 to 8, we will consider the after-tax coupon as the cashflow. The after-tax coupon is calculated as R(1 - T). R is 6% x $1,000 = $60 and tax is 21%. Thus, we have $60(1 - 0.21) = $47.4. then we will discount the cashflows for 8 years so as to obtain the internal rate of return. The internal rate of return represents cost of debt.
Answer:
48
Explanation:
Employee turnover is the rate at which employees leave a company, whether voluntary or involuntary.
In this company, 20 percent of employees leave every year.
If the company intends to have 40 more workers, it should plan to hire the 40 plus an extra 20 percent.
The company should hire 40 plus 20% of 40
=40 + (20/100 x 40)
=40 +(0.2 x40)
=40 +8
=48
The company should hire 48 workers
Answer:
9.24 yr
Explanation:
The payback period refers to the amount of time it takes to recover the cost of an investment. In order to find a payback period we need to go through some calculations first
Annual savings = 5 MM Btu/hr x 8,000 hr/yr x $4/MM Btu x 14 MM Btu/hr x 8,000 hr/yr x $7/MMBtu
Annual savings = $0.944 MM/yr
TCI = 
TCI = $4.7 MM
Depreciation - Annualized fixed cost = ![\frac{[4.0 - 0] }{10}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B%5B4.0%20-%200%5D%20%7D%7B10%7D)
Depreciation - Annualized fixed cost = $0.4 MM/yr
Total cost annualized = Annualized fixed cost + Annual operating cost
Total cost annualized = 0.4 + 0.5
Total cost annualized= 0.9 MM/yr
Annual net (after-tax) profit = Annual income - Total cost annualized x (1-Tax rate + Depreciation
Annual net (after-tax) profit = $0.944 MM/yr - $0.9 MM/yr x 1 -0.25 + $0.4 MM/yr
Annual net (after-tax) profit = 0.433MM/yr
Payback period = 
Payback period = 9.24 yr
Answer:
Gain/loss= $7,500 loss
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price= $24,000.
Lassen bought the machine for $52,000 and has claimed $20,500 of depreciation expense on the machine
First, we need to calculate the book value:
Book value= original price - accumulated depreciation
Book value= 52,000 - 20,500= $31,500
If the selling price is higher than the book value, the company gain from the sale.
Gain/loss= 24,000 - 31,500= $7,500 loss
