Perry, Inc., has a total debt ratio of 0.36. What is its debt–equity ratio

Perry, Inc., has a total debt ratio of 0.36. What is its debt–equity ratio? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))
Debt–equity ratio
What is its equity multiplier? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))
Equity multiplier

Total debt ratio = 0.36 = TD / TA
Substituting total debt plus total equity for total assets, we get:
0.36 = TD / (TD + TE)
Solving this equation yields:
0.36(TE) = 0.64(TD)
Debt/equity ratio = TD / TE = 0.36 / 0.64 = 0.56
Equity multiplier = 1 + D/E = 1.56

Kindle Fire Prevention Corp. has a profit margin of 4.8 percent, total asset turnover of 2.0

Kindle Fire Prevention Corp. has a profit margin of 4.8 percent, total asset turnover of 2.0, and ROE of 19.34 percent. What is this firm’s debt–equity ratio? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))
Debt–equity ratio

ROE = (PM)(TAT)(EM)
ROE = 0.1934 = (0.048)(2.00)(EM)
EM = 0.1934 / (0.048)(2.00) = 2.01
D/E = EM – 1 = 2.01 – 1 = 1.01

Y3K, Inc., has sales of $6,339, total assets of $2,955, and a debt–equity ratio of 1.50

Y3K, Inc., has sales of $6,339, total assets of $2,955, and a debt–equity ratio of 1.50. If its return on equity is 12 percent, what is its net income?

This is a multistep problem involving several ratios. The ratios given are all part of the DuPont Identity. The only DuPont Identity ratio not given is the profit margin. If we know the profit margin, we can find the net income since sales are given. So, we begin with the DuPont Identity:
ROE = 0.12 = (PM)(TAT)(EM) = (PM)(S / TA)(1 + D/E)
Solving the DuPont Identity for profit margin, we get:
PM = [(ROE)(TA)] / [(1 + D/E)(S)]
PM = [(0.12)($2,955)] / [(1 + 1.50)( $6,339)] = 0.0224
Now that we have the profit margin, we can use this number and the given sales figure to solve for net income:
PM = 0.0224 = NI / S
NI = 0.0224($6,339) = $141.84

Imprudential, Inc. has an unfunded pension liability of $585 million that must be paid in 20 years

Imprudential, Inc. has an unfunded pension liability of $585 million that must be paid in 20 years. To assess the value of the firm’s stock, financial analysts want to discount this liability back to the present.
If the relevant discount rate is 7.8 percent, what is the present value of this liability?

To find the PV of a lump sum, we use:
PV = FV / (1 + r)^t
PV = $585,000,000 / (1.078)^20 = $130,250,874.87

If the discount rate is 8 percent, what is the present value of these cash flows?
What is the present value at 16 percent?
What is the present value at 25 percent?

To find the PV of a lump sum, we use:
PV = FV / (1 + r)^t
PV@8% = $830 / 1.08 + $1,150 / 1.08^2 + $1,410 / 1.08^3 + $1,550 / 1.08^4 = $4,013.06
PV@16% = $830 / 1.16 + $1,150 / 1.16^2 + $1,410 / 1.16^3 + $1,550 / 1.16^4 = $3,329.53
PV@25% = $830 / 1.25 + $1,150 / 1.25^2 + $1,410 / 1.25^3 + $1,550 / 1.25^4 = $2,756.80

To find the FV of a lump sum, we use:
FV = PV(1 + r)^t
FV@7% = $1,275(1.07)^3 + $1,395(1.07)^2 + $1,480(1.07) + $1,530 = $6,272.67
FV@12% = $1,275(1.12)^3 + $1,395(1.12)^2 + $1,480(1.12) + $1,530 = $6,728.77
FV@23% = $1,275(1.23)^3 + $1,395(1.23)^2 + $1,480(1.23) + $1,530 = $7,833.50
Notice we are finding the value at Year 4, the cash flow at Year 4 is simply added to the FV of the other cash flows. In other words, we do not need to compound this cash flow.

The Maybe Pay Life Insurance Co. is trying to sell you an investment policy that will pay you and your heirs

The Maybe Pay Life Insurance Co. is trying to sell you an investment policy that will pay you and your heirs $22,000 per year forever. If the required return on this investment is 5.80 percent, how much will you pay for the policy?

This cash flow is a perpetuity. To find the PV of a perpetuity, we use the equation:
PV = C / r
PV = $22,000 / 0.0580 = $379,310.34

Dinero Bank offers you a $68,000, four-year term loan an annual interest rate of 7 percent. What will your annual loan payment be?

Here we have the PVA, the length of the annuity, and the interest rate. We want to calculate the annuity payment. Using the PVA equation:
PVA = C({1 − [1/(1 + r)^t ] } / r)
$68,000 = C{[1 − (1/1.0700^4 ) ] / 0.0700}
We can now solve this equation for the annuity payment. Doing so, we get:
C = $68,000 / 3.38721 = $20,075.51

The Ashwood Company has a long-term debt ratio of 0.30 and a current ratio of 1.40. Current liabilities are $990,

The Ashwood Company has a long-term debt ratio of 0.30 and a current ratio of 1.40. Current liabilities are $990, sales are $5,140, profit margin is 9.50 percent, and ROE is 17.70 percent. What is the amount of the firm’s net fixed assets?
$3,545.08
$3,448.45
$4,931.08
$2,172.32
$1,182.32

The solution to this problem requires a number of steps. First, remember that CA + NFA = TA. So, if we find the CA and the TA, we can solve for NFA. Using the numbers given for the current ratio and the current liabilities, we solve for CA:
CR = CA / CL
CA = CR(CL) = 1.40($990) = $1,386
To find the total assets, we must first find the total debt and equity from the information given. So, we find the sales using the profit margin:
PM = NI / Sales
NI = PM(Sales) = 0.095($5,140) = $488.30
We now use the net income figure as an input into ROE to find the total equity:
ROE = NI / TE
TE = NI / ROE = $488.30 / 0.177 = $2,758.76
Next, we need to find the long-term debt. The long-term debt ratio is:
Long-term debt ratio = 0.30 = LTD / (LTD + TE)
Inverting both sides gives:
1 / 0.30 = (LTD + TE) / LTD = 1 + (TE / LTD)
Substituting the total equity into the equation and solving for long-term debt gives the following:
3.3333 = 1 + ($2,758.76 / LTD)
LTD = $2,758.76 / 2.3333 = $1,182.32
Now, we can find the total debt of the company:
TD = CL + LTD = $990 + 1,182.32 = $2,172.32
And, with the total debt, we can find the TD&E, which is equal to TA:
TA = TD + TE = $2,172.32 + 2,758.76 = $4,931.08
And finally, we are ready to solve the balance sheet identity as:
NFA = TA – CA = $4,931.08 – 1,386.00 = $3,545.08

Holliman Corp. has current liabilities of $426,000, a quick ratio of 1.40, inventory turnover of 3.90

Holliman Corp. has current liabilities of $426,000, a quick ratio of 1.40, inventory turnover of 3.90, and a current ratio of 3.10. What is the cost of goods sold for the company?
$1,013,880
$905,250
$2,824,380
$596,400
$5,150,340

The only ratio given which includes cost of goods sold is the inventory turnover ratio, so it is the last ratio used. Since current liabilities is given, we start with the current ratio:
Current ratio = 3.10 = CA / CL = CA / $426,000
CA = $1,320,600
Using the quick ratio, we solve for inventory:
Quick ratio = 1.40 = (CA – Inventory) / CL = ($1,320,600 – Inventory) / $426,000
Inventory = CA – (Quick ratio × CL)
Inventory = $1,320,600 – (1.40 × $426,000)
Inventory = $724,200
Inventory turnover = 3.90 = COGS / Inventory = COGS / $724,200
COGS = $2,824,380



A company has the right to buy back securities on the anniversary date of purchase at a specified price when the securities were issued. What impact does this feature have to the desirability of this security as an investment?

This will make the security less desirable as the company will purchase the security prior to its maturity if the interest rate decrease. This will make feasible for the company to buy back this security and this feature is normally considered as call feature.

Would you be willing to pay $50,000 today in exchange for $150,000 in 35 years

Would you be willing to pay $50,000 today in exchange for $150,000 in 35 years? What considerations would you take into account before making your decision? Also, would your answer depend on who is making you the promise to repay?

For this, we have to calcualte the present value of the cash to be paid in 35 years and in the absence of interest rate, it is not possible to calcualte the present value. I assume 10% is the interest rate and the present value is as under:
FV = $150,000
r = 10%
Nper = 35 years
PV is calcualted to be $5337.62
So, yes I will like to exchange $150,000 in 35 years. Also, as the commitment to repay the loan is dependent on the solvency of the promising party, it is important to consider the promising party and their long term solvency.

You have graduated and you have interviewed at several companies. One company presents you with an offer of employment but two different contracts. Offer A is a 5 year contract for $200,000 in 5 equal yearly installments. Offer B is a 5 year contract for the same amount paid in installments that will increase by 5% per year. Which contract is the better deal?

Offer B is a better deal as it will result in more present value at year zero as compared to the offer A due to annual increase of 5% per year feature in this offer.

With the increase in the interest rate, the future value will also increase as this will result in more interest to be compounded. While, the increase in the interest rate will decrease the present value.

Assume the total cost of a college education will be $250,000 when your child enters college in 17 years

Assume the total cost of a college education will be $250,000 when your child enters college in 17 years. You presently have $72,000 to invest.
What annual rate of interest must you earn on your investment to cover the cost of your child’s college education?
We can use either the FV or the PV formula. Both will give the same answer since they are the inverse of each other. We will use the FV formula, that is:
FV = PV(1 + r)^t
Solving for r, we get:
r = (FV / PV)^(1 / t) – 1
r = ($250,000 / $72,000)^1/17 – 1 = 0.0760, or 7.60%
