Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Jane will arrive at an estimate of the value of her seller’s property by calculating the average for the 3 comparable adjusted values that she has obtained.

This means that the value of the property should be around $292,167.

Explanation:

Adjusted values of:

Comparable 1 = $289,500

Comparable 2     295,700

Comparable 3      291,300

Total values =   $876,500

An ordinary annuity selling at $4,947.11 today promises to make equal payments at the end of each year for the next eight years
Kryger [21]

Answer:

$812.49

Explanation:

Given that

Sale value of ordinary annuity = $4,947.11

Time period = 8 years

Interest rate = 6.50%

So by considering the above information, the annual annuity payment is

$4,947.11 = Annual annuity payment × Present value annuity factor at 6.5% for 8 years

$4,947.11 = Annual annuity payment × 6.0888

So, the annual annuity payment is $812.49

You determined the following information for Big Rapid's Supplies: It has a receivables turnover rate of 23.5 a payables turnove
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

35 days

Explanation:

Receivables turnover rate = 23.5

Payables turnover rate = 12.5

Inventory turnover rate = 19.15

Length of firm's operating cycle :

(Days sales in inventory + average collection period)

Days' sales in inventory = (365 days / inventory turnover ratio)

Days' sales in inventory = (365 / 19.15)

Days's sales in inventory = 18.717 days

Average collection period : (365 / accounts receivable turnover ratio)

Average collection period = (365 / 23.5)

Average collection period = 15.531

(18.717 + 15.531)

= 34.248

= 35 days

pentagon [3]

Answer:

NPV -6,422.07908

The investment is not profitable at current cost of capital os 11.6%

Explanation:

Sister Pools 11.6% after tax cost of capital

Contructions 10.3% after tax cost of capital

- 85,000

cash flow 17,000 for next 7 years

<u>We will calculate the present value of a 7-years annuity of 17,000 at 11.6% </u>rate

<em>We use Sister Pools rate because we are asked for this company and there is no indication about a change in the cost of capital condition.</em>

<em />

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\\\\\\\17,000 \frac{1-(1+0.116)^{-7} }{0.116} = PV\\

PV = 78,577.92092

<u>Next we subtract the investment cost to get the Net Present Value</u>

78,577.92092 - 85,000 = -6,422.07908
