Given the information below for HooYah! Corporation, compute the expected share price at the end of 2017 using price ratio analysis. Assume that the historical average growth rates will remain the same for 2017. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places. Exclude negative annual P/E and P/CFPS ratios from the average P/E and average P/CFPS ratio calculations. When computing annual growth rates, use a positive sign on the annual rate of change if the per share value increased in value and use a negative sign on the annual rate of change if the per share value deceased in value.)

After reading your report, as well as comments by others on the
team, the Genesis Energy team began to understand the importance of
cash flow and financing in high-growth scenarios. The Genesis
Energy accountant suggested that the focus should be on developing
a financial strategy that would ensure operational needs are met
through short-term financing. The Genesis Energy team instructed
Sensible Essentials to explain in basic terms the factors and
mechanics necessary to determine short-term financing needs.
As the finance expert for Sensible Essentials, do the
following:
Explain the concept of working capital and its importance to Genesis Energy.
Describe the mechanism and methodology used to ensure that operational needs are met through short-term financing. Explain why this methodology is important to Genesis Energy.
Explain how working capital represents the assets that are needed to carry out the day-to-day operation and how working capital can act as a source of financing or increase the need for financing.
In your response, be sure to consider the time value of money and the relative advantages and disadvantages of short-term loans versus internally generated funds.
Write your initial response in 300–500 words.

| Problems 1 and 2 require the use of Excel’s “Solver” add-in.
This may not be immediately available on your installation of
Excel. To get to “Solver”, you want to click on “Add-Ins” under in
the “Developer” tab (or sometimes “Add-Ins” appears as a tab of its
own). In “Add-Ins”, click the box to enable the “Solver Add-in”.
“Solver” should then appear under the “Data” tab (probably on the
far right). Alternatively you may be able to click on the Solver
add-in through the sequence "File" "Options" "Add-ins", then at the
bottom, for Manage: Excel Add-ins, click "Go". There you can click
on "Solver" and "Ok". If you do not have the “Developer” tab, you can add it to your ribbon. From “File” or “Home”, click on “Options”, where you can click on “Customize Ribbon”, in which you can click on “Developer”. A bond with face value $1364 and a term of 12 years pays quarterly coupons of 12% per annum. The bond is offered at a price of $1751. You are to enter the above values into a spreadsheet, along with - an initial wild guess at what the yield would be, and - a calculation of the bond price using your guess as the yield. |
| (a) | Use Excel’s “Solver” (which is different from “Goal Seek”) to solve for the actual yield that produces the correct bond price. Take a screen shot of your computer with “Solver” open showing clearly the entries that you put into Solver. Paste the screen shot into an application (like Paint), and save it as a (.png) file. Upload your screenshot below. |
| (b) | What is the yield calculated by Solver? |

The Happy Healing Hospital CFO has just sent a memo to all departments requesting a list of any capital expenses along with the justification for each item requested. The decision bring the Release of Information copy service back to in house rather than outsourcing it. You have already completed the research for leasing verses purchasing the equipment to be used for the project.

Complete the table below.
(Hint: Your “remaining balance will be carried over as the investment for the following year.)
| Year | Average Net Income | Initial Investment | Remaining |
| 0 | 0 | $34,000 | |
| 1 | $3,000 | $34,000 - $3,000 = | $31,000 |
| 2 | $7,000 | ||
| 3 | $10,000 | ||
| 4 | $15,000 | ||
| 5 | $20,000 | ||
| Total | $55,000 |
To Lease
Your research shows that the same equipment will cost $3,000 per month to lease with no initial investment. However, there is a maintenance contract that will cost an additional $150 per month. Create a table to show these expenses.
Evaluation and Recommendation
Evaluate the two tables. Which do you feel would be the better option?
Write a brief justification for your recommendation using this information with a specific comparison between the two options.
