Answer:

geometric mean return = 1.2%

arithmetic mean return = 1.21%

Explanation:

Year            Price            Dividend              Yearly return

1                  $43.37                 -                            0

2                 $48.35            $0.60                      1.24%

3                 $57.27            $0.63                       1.1%

4                 $45.35            $0.80                       1.76%

5                 $52.27            $0.85                       1.63%

6                  $61.35            $0.93                       1.52%

geometric mean return = [(1 + 0) x (1 + 0.0124) x (1 + 0.011) x (1 + 0.0176) x (1 + 0.0163) x (1 + 0.0152)]¹/⁶ - 1 = 1.012 - 1 = 0.012 = 1.2%

arithmetic mean return = (0% + 1.24% + 1.1% + 1.76% + 1.63% + 1.52%) / 6 = 7.25% / 6 = 1.21%

A On December 31, 2017, State Construction Inc. signs a contract with the state of West Virginia Department of Transportation to
larisa [96]

Answer:

2018: $78 million

2019: $468 million

2020: $234 million

Explanation:

Given that State Construction incurred costs as follows:

Year                         Cost

2018                         $60 million

2019                         $360 million

2020                        $180 million

Total cost = $60 million + $360 million + $180 million = $600 million

Percentage to total cost ratio is:

For 2018 = $60 million / $600 million = 0.1,

For 2019 = $360 million / $600 million = 0.6,

For 2020 = $180 million / $600 million = 0.3.

Revenue = Percentage to total cost ratio × Contract price.

Contract price = $780 million

For 2018, Revenue = 0.1 × $780 million = $78 million

For 2019, Revenue = 0.6 × $780 million = $468 million

For 2020, Revenue = 0.3 × $780 million = $234 million

Bartlett Company's target capital structure is 40% debt, 15% preferred, and 45% common equity. The after-tax cost of debt is 6.0
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

WACC is 9.26%

Explanation:

WACC is the average cost of capital of the firm based on the weightage of the debt and weightage of the equity multiplied to their respective costs.

According to WACC formula

WACC = ( Cost of common share x Weightage of common share ) + ( Cost of Preferred share x Weightage of Preferred share ) + ( Cost of debt x Weightage of debt )

Cost of debt is already given as after tax cost of debt.

WACC = ( 12.75% x 45% ) + ( 7.5% x 15% ) + ( 6% x 40% )

WACC = 5.7375% + 1.125% + 2.4% = 9.2625 % = 9.26%

You own a small boutique that sells scented soaps and lotions as well as handmade jewelry. You are considering moving locations
Natali [406]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

You believe this will increase your contribution margin from $127,000 to $218,000 per year. Rent, however, will increase by $400 per month, and utilities will increase by $150 per month. You will also need to hire two additional employees for $24,000 each annually.

We need to calculate the effect of moving in the net income of the company:

Effect on income= (218,000 - 127,000) - (400*12) - (150*12) - 24,000*2

Effect on income= $36,400 increase

A landlord entered into a 10-year lease of a building with an auctioneer, who planned to use the building itself for a storage a
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

$2,000

Explanation:

Usually, the landlord is required to notify the tenant if he/she plans to sell the property, but regardless of who owns the property (the original landlord or  a new landlord), the contract terms are valid and must be honored by both the current landlord and the tenant.

The new owner immediately became the new landlord and he/she assumed all the responsibilities stated in the lease contract. Since the lease contract stated that the "lessor (landlord) agreed to maintain all structures on the property in good repair", the new landlord must pay for any necessary repairs.
