Shrives Publishing recently reported $13,000 of sales, $5,500 of operating costs other than depreciation, and $1,250 of depreciation. The company had $3,500 of bonds that carry a 6.25% interest rate, and its federal-plus-state income tax rate was 35%. During the year, the firm had expenditures on fixed assets and net operating working capital that totaled $1,550. These expenditures were necessary for it to sustain operations and generate future sales and cash flows. What was its free cash flow?
Answer: $3762.50
Explanation:
Given the following :
Sales = $13,000
Operating Cost other than Depreciation = $5,500
Depreciation = $1250
Bond value = $3,500
Interest rate = 6.25%
Tax rate = 35%) = 0.35
Expenditure on fixed assets and net operating working capital = $1,550
What was its free cash flow?
Free cash FLOW (FCF) = EBIT(1 - tax rate) + depreciation - ( Expenditure on fixed assets and net operating working capital)
EBIT = Earning before income tax;
EBIT = SALES - Operating Cost other than DEPRECIATION - DEPRECIATION
EBIT = $13000 - $5500 - $1250 = $6250
FCF = $6250(1 - 0.35) + $1250 - $1550
FCF = $6250(0.65) + $1250 - $1550
FCF = $4062.50 + $1250 - $1550
FCF = $3762.50
(10 marks) 1. Looking at Nigeria as a potential emerging market, mention and explain 4 factors you think are preventing Nigeria from becoming an excellent emerging market to invest in? 2. If you were given the chance, resources and power to change Nigeria, which one out of the 4 problems identified above would you try to solve and how would you do it?
Answer:
1. Political instability
2. High cost of taxation
3. Insecurity
4. Changes in law and policy
Explanation:
1A. Political instability. The uncertainty regarding political decisions is one of the major threat to foreign investment in Nigeria. Where there are daily crises in terms of political events, such will scare away potential investors. Moreover, if government changes regulations guiding businesses or do not enforce such changes, it may cut down the returns that should ordinary be made by the investors hence discourage them from making further investment.
1B. High cost of taxation. Emerging economies such as Nigeria imposes too many taxes on local and foreign investors who have their companies situated there. For instance, the federal government through Federal lnland Revenue services is saddled with the responsibility of collecting various types of taxes such as company income tax, withholding taxes etc. Moreover, state governments also levy taxes on these companies for situating and carrying out business transactions in their state.
1C. Insecurity. The prevalence insecurity in the North East discourages investors from investing in Nigeria. The country has to grapple with the daily threat posed by these terrorist. Again, the activities of these terrorist group including the dreaded bandits and local militants have claimed and destroyed lots of lives and properties over the years. Due to their constant and continuous activities, Nigeria has been included among terrorist nations hence scares investors away from coming to invest in the country because no one would want his or her investments to be destroyed.
1D. Changes in law and policy. Emerging countries such as Nigeria is used to changing laws regulating businesses constantly. Most of these changes come through variation of existing contracts such as using executive powers(circulars, administrative orders,directives etc). The continuous changes in law and policy is capable of discouraging investors from investing in the country.
2. If I have the resources to change any of the above, I would change political instability. The reason is that a country that is not stable politically cannot attract foreign investment. I would try as much possible to bring together all the political players in the country by asking them to ignore their political differences hence work towards common good of the country.

In early 2009, General Electric (GE) had a book value of equity of $105 billion, 10.5 billion shares outstanding, and a market price of $10.80 per share. GE also had cash of $48 billion, and total debt of $524 billion. Three years later, in early 2012, GE had a book value of equity of $116 billion, 10.6 billion shares outstanding with a market price of $17 per share, cash of $84 billion, and total debt of $410 billion. Over this period, what was the change in GE's a. Market capitalization? b. Market-to-book ratio? c. Enterprise value?
Answer and Explanation:
1. The computation of Market capitalization is shown below:-
Market Capitalization in 2009 = Market Price × Outstanding Shares
= 10.5 × $105
= $1,102.5 billion
Market Capitalization in 2012 = Market Price × Outstanding Shares
= $17 × $10.6
= $180.2 billion
Changes in Market Capitalization = Market Price × Outstanding Shares
= $1,102.5 billion - $180.2 billion
= $922.3
b. The computation of Market-to-book ratio is shown below:-
Market to Book Ratio in 2009 = Market Value of Firm ÷ Book Value of Firm
= $1,102.5 billion ÷ $105 billion
= 10.5
Market to Book Ratio in 2012 = Market Value of Firm ÷ Book Value of Firm
= $180.2 billion ÷ $116 billion
= 1.55
Changes in Market to Book Ratio = Market to Book Ratio in 2009 - Market to Book Ratio in 2012
= 10.5 - 1.55
= 8.95
c. The computation of enterprise value is shown below:-
Book Debt to Equity Ratio in 2009 = Debt ÷ Book Value of Equity
= $524 ÷ $105
= 4.99
Book Debt to Equity Ratio in 2012 = Debt ÷ Book Value of Equity
= $410 ÷ $116
= 3.53
Changes in Book Debt to Equity Ratio = Book Debt to Equity Ratio in 2012 - Book Debt to Equity Ratio in 2009
= 3.53 - 4.99
= -1.46

a. $150,000
b. $ 50,000
c. $25,000
d. $75,000
Answer:
Pico gain = $25,000
Explanation:
Given:
Total bonds of sico = $1,000,000
Pico acquired = $250,000
Total amount of premium = $200,000
Discount amount = $100,000
Find:
Pico gain or loss
Computation:
Share of Pico = $250,000 / $1,000,000
Share of Pico = 0.25
Gain in premium = $200,000 × 0.25
Gain in premium = $50,000
Loss in discount = $100,000 × 0.25
Loss in discount = $25,000
Net gain = $50,000 - $25,000
Net gain = $25,000

You are a vendor representative with a new line of fashion watches showing it to a new buyer.

She continues to complain that her worst-selling brand of watches will not help her out with any markdown allowances or take any of the merchandise back. She states that she is no longer buying any more merchandise from this line and will have to wait until it sells before she can bring in a new line of watches. What might you suggest or negotiate?

On January 1, the Elias Corporation issued 10% bonds with a face value of $113,000. The bonds are sold for $110,740. The bonds pay interest semiannually on June 30 and December 31 and the maturity date is December 31, ten years from now. Elias records straight-line amortization of the bond discount.

Eve's Apples opened for business on January 1, 2012, and paid for two insurance policies effective that date. The liability policy was $36,000 for eighteen-months, and the crop damage policy was $12,000 for a two-year term. What was the balance in Eve's Prepaid Insurance account as of December 31, 2012
Answer:
$18,000
Explanation:
Since the two insurance polices are for 18 months and 2 years respectively, at $36,000 and $12,000 each, we can deduce that by the 31st of December, 2012 a year each has been off the policies.
By that, we can simply deduce that for the $36,000 liability policy, its monthly rate is $2,000 ($36,000 ÷ 18). Same can be said for the crop damage plan at $12,000 for 2 years. If a year is off the plan, the 2nd year is worth $6,000 ($12,000 ÷ 2).
Therefore, from the liability policy, we have $12,000 left for the 6 months left on the plan while we have $6,000 on the crop damage plan for the next year 2013.
Adding both remainders gives $12,000 + $6,000 = $18,000
