Cash flows     ($1,500,000)  A$1,000,000   A$2,000,000

DCF 14%              1                    0.8772         0.7695

Present Values 1500,000      A$877,200      A$ 1,538,935

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

The present value of terminal value is $ 863,689.48  

Explanation:

Terminal value=Cash flows at third year*(1+g)/WACC-g

cash flows at the third year is $64,000

g is the growth rate of net cash flows which is 2% in perpetuity

WACC is 8%

Terminal value=$64,000*(1+2%)/(8%-2%)

                       =$64000*1.02/0.06

                       =$ 1,088,000.00  

The present value of terminal=terminal value*discount factor in year 3

discount factor in year=1/(1+8%)^3=0.793832241

Present value of terminal cash flow=1,088,000.00 *0.79383224

                                                           =$ 863,689.48

Complete Question:

Read the news clip, then answer the following question A Bakery on the Rise Avalon's decision to -is a long-run decision. O A. move to a larger space Up to 500 customers a day line up to buy Avalon's breads, scones, muffins, and coffee. Staffing and management are worries. Avalon now employs 35 and plans to hire 15 more. Its payroll will climb by 30 percent to 40 percent. The new CEO has executed an ambitious agenda that includes the move to a larger space, which will increase the rent from $3,500 to $10,000 a month Source: CNN, March 24, 2008

Avalon's decision to __________ is a long run decision.

A. Move to Larger Space

B. Hire 15 more employees

Answer:

Option A. Move to Larger Space

Explanation:

The decision that alters only a single variable factor is considered as a short run decision. Labor, electricity usage, increased production are examples of variable factors. This means that increase in employees is a short run decision.

On the other hand, decision to increase or decrease the fixed factors are considered as long run decision because it is difficult to alter the decision and if we do so, then we will encounter heavy losses for a long period of time. Long run decision includes selling or purchasing or leasing of property, plant and equipment are considered as fixed factors.

In this case, Avalon is considering to move to a larger space which will result in significant increae in fixed cost. Hence it is fixed factor and is long run decision. Hence Option A is correct here.

Pharoah Company assembled the following information in completing its March bank reconciliation: Balance per bank $23700 Outstan
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

Pharaoh will reduce its cash balance by $1,130

None of the answer options was correct, maybe something was missing in the question like notes collected or other NSF checks.

Explanation:

Pharaoh Company's bank reconciliation:

balance per bank account   $23,700

- outstanding checks            ($4,800)

+ deposits in transit                 $7,750

<u>- NSF checks                            ($500) </u>

total                                        $26,150

<u>- cash balance per books    ($27,280)</u>

difference                               ($1,130)

In order to reconcile the bank account, we do not consider any bank service fees because they are already included in the bank balance. What we must consider are the NSF checks that we deposited and thought were good checks, but instead they bounced.
