b. $69,754

Explanation:

contribution = sales - variable cost

for Product B32L:

contribution = sales - variable cost

= 46,000 - 13800

= $32,200

for Product K84B:

contribution = sales - variable cost

= 27,000 - 14,670

= $12,330

total sales of the company = 46,000 + 27,000

= $73,000

total contribution of the company = $32,200 + $12,330

= $44,530

cotribution margin ratio = contribution/sales

= 44530/73000

= 0.61

break even point = fixed cost/cotribution margin ratio

= 42550/0.61

= $69,754

Therefore, The The break-even point for the entire company is closest to $69,754.

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Shareholders who are risk averse may prefer some dividends over the promise of future capital gains.

Explanation:

A dividend is a cash distribution by a company to its shareholders out of the profits of a period. Capital Gain refers to the increase in the value of a capital asset or an investment upon sale. From the two of them, dividends are safer investments since they do not rely exclusively on the sales of an asset.

Thus, a conservative investor is likely to choose dividends over the promise of capital gains.

Pendergast, Inc., has no debt outstanding, and has a total market value of $180,000. Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) a

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

See the explanation below:

Explanation:

a- Calculate ROE and EPS under each of the economic scenarios before any debt is issued.

Under an expansion

Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) = $23,000 * (100% + 20%) = $27,600

Earnings after taxes = $27,600 * (100% - 35%) = $17,940

Return on equity (ROE) = Earnings after taxes / Total market value of equity = $17,940 / $180,000 =

0.0997, or 9.97%

Earnings per share (EPS) = Earnings after taxes / Number of shares of stock outstanding = $17,940 /

6,000 = $2.99 per share

Under a recession

Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) = $23,000 * (100% - 30%) = $16,100

Earnings after taxes = $16,100 * (100% - 35%) = $10,465

Return on equity (ROE) = Earnings after taxes / Total market value of equity = $10,465 / $180,000 =

0.0581, or 5.81%

Earnings per share (EPS) = Earnings after taxes / Number of shares of stock outstanding = $10,465 /

6,000 = $1.74 per share

b- Repeat part a, assuming that the company goes through with the capitalization.

Under an expansion

Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) = $23,000 * (100% + 20%) = $27,600

Interest on debt = $75,000 * 7% = $5,250

Page 2 of 2

Earnings after interest = $27,600 - $5,250 = $22,350

Earnings after taxes = $22,350 * (100% - 35%) = $14,527.50

Return on equity (ROE) = Earnings after taxes / Total market value of equity = $14,527.50/ $180,000 =

0.0807, or 8.07%

Earnings per share (EPS) = Earnings after taxes / Number of shares of stock outstanding = $14,527.50 /

6,000 = $2.42 per share

Under a recession

Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) = $23,000 * (100% - 30%) = $16,100

Interest on debt = $75,000 * 7% = $5,250

Earnings after interest = $16,100 - $5,250 = $10,850

Earnings after taxes = $10,850 * (100% - 35%) = $7,052.50

Return on equity (ROE) = Earnings after taxes / Total market value of equity = $7,052.50 / $180,000 =

0.0392, or 3.92%

Earnings per share (EPS) = Earnings after taxes / Number of shares of stock outstanding = $7,052.50 /

6,000 = $1.18 per share

c- Calculate the percentage changes in EPS when the economy expands or enters a recession.

Percentage change under expansion = ($2.42 - $2.99)/$2.99 = 0.1902 decrease, or 19.02% decrease.

Percentage change under recession = ($1.18 - $1.74)/ $1.74 = 0.3218 decrease, or 32.18% decrease
