The debt ratio can be calculated as follows

Lots of debt incorporation= total liability/total assets.

= 32.25/34.25

= 0.9416×100

= 94.16%

Lots of equity incorporation= 2.00/34.25

= 0.05839 × 100

Casey Corporation reported net income of $96,000, depreciation expense of $3,400, and cash flow from operations of $53,700. Compute the quality of income ratio. What does the ratio tell you about the company’s ability to finance operating and other cash needs from operating cash inflows? (Enter your answer in decimals, not in percentages, rounded to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

The quality of Income ratio is 0.56

Explanation:

Here in this question, we are interested in computing the quality of income ratio

Mathematically;

Quality Income Ratio = Cash flow from Operating Activity/Net Income

= 53,700/96,000 = 0.56

So what does this ratio tell us?

The indication we have from this calculation is that it is the operating activities that is supplying the bulk of the cash needed by the company (0.56 is 56%).

The remaining cash needs of 0.44 or 44% is sourced from other activities of the company and not its operating activities

A heat integration project results in saving 5 MM Btu/h of heating utility and 14 MM Btu/h of cooling utility. The prices of heating and cooling utilities are $4/MM Btu and $7/MM Btu respectively. The process operates for 8000 h per year. The project requires the installation of three heat exchangers, pumps, and pipeline. The FCI of the project is $4.0 MM. The working capital investment is taken as 15/85 of the FCI. The annual operating cost of the project (for pumping the integrated streams) is $0.5 MM/year. Depreciation is calculated over 10 years with no salvage value. The corporate tax rate for the project is 25% of the annual taxable gross profit. What is the payback period of the project

Answers

Answer:

9.24 yr

Explanation:

The payback period refers to the amount of time it takes to recover the cost of an investment. In order to find a payback period we need to go through some calculations first  

Annual savings =  5 MM Btu/hr x 8,000 hr/yr x $4/MM Btu x 14 MM Btu/hr x  8,000 hr/yr x $7/MMBtu

Annual savings = $0.944 MM/yr

TCI = [tex]\frac{4.0 MM}{0.85}[/tex]

TCI = $4.7 MM

Depreciation - Annualized fixed cost = [tex]\frac{[4.0 - 0] }{10}[/tex]

Depreciation - Annualized fixed cost = $0.4 MM/yr

Total cost annualized = Annualized fixed cost + Annual operating cost

Total cost annualized = 0.4 + 0.5

Total cost annualized= 0.9 MM/yr

Annual net (after-tax) profit = Annual income - Total cost annualized x (1-Tax rate + Depreciation

Annual net (after-tax) profit = $0.944 MM/yr - $0.9 MM/yr x  1 -0.25 + $0.4 MM/yr

Annual net (after-tax) profit = 0.433MM/yr

Payback period = [tex]\frac{4.0}{0.433MM/yr}[/tex]

Payback period = 9.24 yr

Topeka Manufacturing reported sales of $750,000 during the current year. The company used $300,000 of raw materials to produce the units that were sold. Its raw materials inventory totaled $10,000 at the beginning of the year and $14,000 at the end of the year. What is the company’s days’ sales in raw materials inventory at the end of the current year?

Answers

Answer:

Days sales in raw materials inventory = 17.03 days

Explanation:

Given that;

Sales = $750,000

Raw materials used = $300,000

Ending raw materials inventory = $14,000

Beginning inventory = $10,000

Days sales in raw materials inventory =

Ending raw materials inventory ÷ raw materials used × 365

= ($14,000 ÷ $300,000) × 365

= 17.03 days

7.The matching principle requires that: A. revenues earned and expenses incurred in generating those revenues should be reported in the same income statement. B. non-operating gains and losses should be netted against each other. C. a proportion of each dollar collected will be assumed to be a recovery of cost. D. assets will be matched to the liabilities incurred to purchase them.

Answers

Answer:

A. revenues earned and expenses incurred in generating those revenues should be reported in the same income statement.

Explanation:

A matching principle is an accounting concept which is typically used on accrual basis accounts and it states that expenses incurred by an individual or business entity should be recognized and matched in the same period with respect to the revenues they are related to.

The matching principle indicates when costs are recognized as expenses on the income statement.

For instance, company XYZ purchases a property worth $90,000 in June, it was then sold in July for $250,000. Based on the matching principle, the $90,000 cost shouldn't be recognized by company XYZ as an expense until July, when the related revenue would be recognized also. Else, if recognized, its expenses would be overstated by $90,000 in June, and consequently understated to the tune of $250,000 in July.

Hence, matching principle requires that revenues earned and expenses incurred in generating those revenues should be reported in the same income statement.

Additionally, the matching principle helps business owners to calculate their taxes and profits or losses properly.

For 2018, Gourmet Kitchen Products reported $22 million of sales and $19 million of operating costs (including depreciation). The company has $15 million of total invested capital. Its after-tax cost of capital is 9% and its federal-plus-state income tax rate was 34%. What was the firm's economic value added (EVA), that is, how much value did management add to stockholders' wealth during 2018? Write out your answer completely. For example, 25 million should be entered as 25,000,000. Round your answer to the nearest dollar, if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

Economic value added = $630,000

Explanation:

Economic value added (EVA) = Net operating profit after taxes - Invested capital * Cost of capital

Economic value added (EVA)= [($22,000,000 - $19,000,000)*(1 - 0.34)] - [$15,000,000*9%]

Economic value added (EVA)= [$3,000,000*(0.66) - $1,350,000]

Economic value added (EVA) = $1,980,000 - $1,350,000

Economic value added (EVA)= $630,000

You have won the lottery. You will receive $5,500,000 today, and then receive 40 payments of $1,900,000. These payments will start one year from now and will be paid every six months. A representative from Greenleaf Investments has offered to purchase all the payments from you for $35 million. If the appropriate discount rate is an APR of 9 percent compounded daily, should you take the offer

Answers

Answer:

no, you shouldn't take the offer because the present value of your prize is higher than $35 million.

Explanation:

we must first calculate the present value of the annuity in 6 months. The effective interest rate per year = (1 + 9%/365)³⁶⁵ - 1 = 1.094162145 - 1 = 0.094162145 = 9.4162145

the discount rate for every 6 months:

0.094162145 = (1 + r)² - 1

1.094162145 = (1 + r)²

√1.094162145 = √(1 + r)²

1.046022058 = 1 + r

r = 0.046022058 = 4.6%

now the present value of the annuity in 6 years = $1,900,000 x (annuity factor, 4.6%, 40 periods) = $1,900,000 x 18.14185 = $34,469,515

then we must find the present value = $34,469,515 / 1.046 = $32,953,647.23

the total value of your prize = $32,953,647.23 + $5,500,000 = $38,453,647.23

The old machine was used to make product M25A until it broke down last week. Unfortunately, the old machine cannot be repaired. Management has decided to buy the new model 240 machine. It has less capacity than the new model 370 machine, but its capacity is sufficient to continue making product M25A. Management also considered, but rejected, the alternative of simply dropping product M25A. If that were done, instead of investing $463,000 in the new machine, the money could be invested in a project that would return a total of $488,000.

What is the least risky security you can think of? Explain.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

An investment when it would be risk free in that case both the principal and the interest amount are to be paid within the prescribed time. Also when the U.S government bonds i.e. long term would be issued by the government have a lesser interest rate as compared with the other riskier securities available at the market place this is because as the government would default next to zero in case of the short term it would make the default when there are extreme situations arise.

Therefore in the short term it would be risk free

But in the long run, the person is based on the treasury bills returns so that he or she could equate the similar standard of living also it would not suffice when the inflation rises

Therefore the less risky investment would be of Government bonds

The state unemployment rate for Ford is 5.1%. Determine the unemployment taxes (FUTA and SUTA) that would be paid by each company.

Answers

Answer:

A. $1,054.00

B. $ 450.00

Explanation:

Calculation to Determine the unemployment taxes (FUTA and SUTA) that would be paid by each company.

Calculation for Rowland Construction Company unemployment taxes for (FUTA and SUTA)

FUTA tax $7,000 × 0.006

FUTA tax = $42.00

SUTA tax $22,000 × 0.046

SUTA tax = $1,012.00

Hence,

Unemployment taxes=FUTA tax+SUTA tax

Let plug in the formula

Unemployment taxes=$42.00+$1,012.00

Unemployment taxes= $1,054.00

Therefore Rowland Construction Company unemployment taxes for (FUTA and SUTA) will be $1,054.00

b.

Calculation for Ford Improvement Company unemployment taxes for (FUTA and SUTA)

FUTA tax $7,000 × 0.006

FUTA tax = $ 42.00

SUTA tax $8,000 × 0.051

SUTA tax = 408.00

Hence,

Unemployment taxes=FUTA tax+SUTA tax

Let plug in the formula

Unemployment taxes=$42.00+$408.00

Unemployment taxes= $450.00

Therefore Rowland Construction Company unemployment taxes for (FUTA and SUTA) will be $450.00

If the traditional expectations theory of the term structure is correct, and if the risk of your company's bonds is similar to that of the above bonds, what is the expected price of your company's bond at issue (i.s., in six months hence)

Answers

Answer:

$441,495

Explanation:

Since the information is incomplete, I looked for the missing part and found the attached information.

the current yield of a 1.5 years zero coupon bond = (100 / 89.9)¹/¹°⁵ - 1 = 0.0736 = 7.36%

the current yield of a 6 months zero coupon bond = (100 / 97.087)¹/⁰°⁵ - 1 = 0.0609 = 6.09%

now to calculate the future interest rate:

(1.0736²/1.0609) - 1 = 0.0865 = 8.65%

since we are told to determine the price of the bond:

(100/P)¹/¹°⁵ - 1 = 0.0865

(100/P)¹/¹°⁵ = 1.0865

100/P = 1.0865¹°⁵

100/P = 1.1325

100/1.1325 = P

P = 88.299

the expected price of the bond = 88.299% x $500,000 = $441,495
