Answer:
EPS
Plan I $2.03 per share
Plan II $1.78 per share
Explanation:
Plan I
As this plan is all equity plan, so there is no debt and no interest expense as well.
In the absence of taxes, We will use the EBIT in the calculation of EPS
EPS = Net Earning / Outstanding numbers of shares = $375,000 / 185,000 = $2.03 per share
Plan II
In this levered plan we have debt and equity combination. We also have to deduct the interest expense from EBIT to calculate the net income.
Interest Expense = $2,700,000 x 5% = $135,000
Net Income = EBIT - Interest Expense = $375,000 - $135,000 = $240,000
EPS = Net Income / Outstanding numbers of shares = $240,000 / 135,000 = $1.8 per share

Answer:
5341288
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Volume of the living quarters = 213 cubic feet
Now,
The dimensions of the US dollar bills are
width = 2.61 inches
Length = 6.14 inches
Thickness = 0.0043 inches
Thus,
Volume of a single dollar bill = 2.61 × 6.14 × 0.0043
= 0.06890922 cubic inches
Also,
Volume of quarter in cubic inches = 213 × 12³
[ ∵ 1 ft = 12 inches ; 1 ft³ = 12³ cubic inches]
Thus,
Volume of quarter in cubic inches = 368064 cubic inches.
Thus,
Number of dollar bills that can fit in there
= [ Volume of quarter in cubic inches ] ÷ Volume of a single dollar bill
= 368064 ÷ 0.06890922
= 5341288.15 ≈ 5341288
Answer: $50,301
Explanation:
If they offered the new terms of 2/10, net 30 then 45 percent of their customers would pay on day 10 with the remainder paying on average in 32 days.
The collection period would therefore be;
= 0.45 * 10 + 0.55 * 32
= 22.1 days
Currently the Average Daily sales are;
= Average Receivables/ Average collection period
= 211,410/29
= $7,290
With the new collection period their Average receivables would be;
= 7,290 * 22.1
= $161,109
Potential cash to be freed up = Current Receivables - New receivables
= 211,410 - 161,109
= $50,301

Explanation:
Asonia Co. stock price will be calculated using discount factor of 9.9% which is investors required rate of return for company's stock.
Stock price = dividends * (1+r)^ - n
$4.30 (1.099)^-1 + $8.40 (1.099)^-2 + $11.25 (1.099)^-3 + $13.40 (1.099)^-4
$3.91 + $6.95 + $8.48 + $9.19
$28.53
