Answer:

At the rate of return of 18%, the purchase of the new machine is not convenient.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Simone Company is considering the purchase of a new machine costing $50,000. It is expected to save $9,000 cash per year for 10 years, has an estimated useful life of 10 years, and no salvage value. Management will not make any investment unless at least an 18% rate of return can be earned.

We need to find the net present value using the following formula:

NPV= -Io + ∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]

Cf= cash flow

NPV= -50,000 + 9,000/1.18 + 9,000/1.18^2 + 9,000/1.18^3 + ... + 9,000/1.18^10

NPV= -9,553

At the rate of return of 18%, the purchase of the new machine is not convenient. It will produce a loss in value.

Calculate the net income earned during the year. Assume that the change to stockholder's equity results only from net income ear
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

The net income earned during the year is $ 5,000

Explanation:

The first point to kn ow is the accounting equation is A=L+SE

So to calculate the opening stockholders equity we can rearrange the accounting equation to be:

A-L = SE

so opening SE is

Assets $ 50,000 - Liabilities $ 40,000 =  Stockholders Equity $ 10,000

Ending Stockholders equity is:

Assets $ 35,000 - Liabilities $ 20,000 = Stockholders Equity $ 15,000

Since the question mentions that the change in stockholders equity is only due to net income, the increase of $ 5,000 represents the net income for 2019.

Answer:

The correct answer is option (A) $2,600

Explanation:

Given data;

The data given can be tabulated below for easy understanding

Pairs                        Flow         Distance          Flow distance

X-y                              30            20                     600

Y-Z                            280             10                     2800

Z-X                            180             10                      1800

Total flow = 600 +2800 + 1800 = 5200

To calculate the total weekly cost, we use the formula;

Total weekly  cost is =  Total flow * Cost of per load

                                    = 5200 *0.5

                                     $2,600

Portman Industries just paid a dividend of $2.16 per share. The company expects the coming year to be very profitable, and its d
Mariana [72]

Answer:

Expected Dividend Yield is 10.4%

Explanation:

As we know that the Expected Dividend Yield for Portman’s Stock can be calculated using the following formula:

Expected Dividend Yield = [D0 x (1 + g) / Intrinsic Value (Step1)] * 100

Here

Dividend just paid is $2.16 per share

The growth rate for the Portman's stock is 16% for the first year

Ke is 13.6%

Intrinsic Value = $24.09 (See Step 1)

By putting the above values in the above equation, we have:

Expected Dividend Yield = [$2.16 x (1 + 0.16) / $24.09] x 100

= 10.4%

Step 1. Intrinsic Value can be calculated using the following formula:

Intrinsic Value = D1 / (1 + r)^1   +  Horizon Value (Step 2) / (1 + r)^1

Here

Growth (g) will be 3.2% for the year 2 because D2 = D1 * (1 + g)

Horizon value = D1 * (1 + g) / (Ke – g) = $2.5056 * (1 + 3.2%) / (13.6% – 3.2%)

= $2.5858 / 0.0752 = $24.86 per share

So by putting the above values in the step 1, we have:

= $2.5056 / (1 + 0.136)1 + $24.86/(1 + 0.136)1

= $24.09 per share

Which of the following should be kept in mind when deciding between mac and windows computers?
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

A and B

Explanation:

When you own a business you must keep in mind that most employees would rather use a windows computer rather than a Mac as they are less likely to have used them in the past. This would decrease productivity. Additionally one would have to pay for a course teaching them to use Apple computers which is unnecessary. Additionally Windows Computers are largely cheaper. These savings can be reinvested into the business
