McGilla Golf is evaluating a new line of golf clubs. The clubs will sell for $950 per set and have a variable cost of $425 per set. The company has spent $145,000 for a marketing study that determined the company will sell 48,000 sets per year for seven years. The marketing study also determined that the company will lose sales of 9,000 sets of its high-priced clubs. The high-priced clubs sell at $1,450 and have variable costs of $580. The company also will increase sales of its cheap clubs by 11,600 sets. The cheap clubs sell for $425 and have variable costs of $155 per set. The fixed costs each year will be $9,400,000. The company has also spent $1,050,000 on research and development for the new clubs. The plant and equipment required will cost $29,400,000 and will be depreciated on a straight-line basis to a zero salvage value. The new clubs also will require an increase in net working capital of $2,380,000 that will be returned at the end of the project. The tax rate is 22 percent and the cost of capital is 14 percent. Suppose you feel that the values are accurate to within only ±10 percent. What are the best-case and worst-case NPVs? (Hint: The price and variable costs for the two existing sets of clubs are known with certainty; only the sales gained or lost are uncertain.) (A negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

With the advancements made in technology we all use some form of it daily. Whether we are using a computer, smartphone, the internet and social media, etc., these things have been incorporated into our daily living. Most people are required to use some form of technology at work, we are entertained with them and it is the most used form of communication. With that technology and the internet have been very important for companies for the purpose of working, communicating, and even advertising. "Using social media for business marketing has been a hot topic for years now, but brands are still trying to harness the power of the digital socialsphere to discover the best ways to directly impact their bottom lines. As social media use advances, so does the frequency in which brands are reaching out to their audiences to engage them through these channels" (Gleeson, n.d.).

The use of social media for a company can have both negative and positive benefits, however the use of social media can create substantial benefits for a company when communicating both internally and externally. Social media can be a tool to facilitate faster and better change management decisions to accelerate and promote internal changes. A company can build trust internally through social media by promoting the positive actions of their employees and progress in their work. By promoting their employee on social media the company can build trust and motivation within the company. By making an employee feel valued in their job they will be better motivated to perform better in the future.

A company can build trust externally by listening to and responding to their customer complaints and suggestions. By responding to their customers in a timely manner the company will gain the trust and loyalty of a valuable customer. "When social media are used for professional purposes, teams can communicate more efficiently; companies can interface more responsively with customers, clients, and suppliers; customers and other interested individuals can be directly involved in the development of products and services; and anyone with shared professional interests can communicate easily, not needing to travel to see one another" (Cardon, 2017).

Social media is also a great tool to address many public relations issues that might arise. If the company has an issue arise or there is bad news for the company that leaks out the company should already have a policy to handle it. Within this policy or plan the company should be able to identify the issue before trying to solve it. The company needs to make sure that the information is accurate when it is presented to make the company look its best.

Social media can also be to support the culture, strategic vision, values, and mission of the company. This information can be created for the company and then placed on its social media platform for potential customer, investors, and employees to see and make their decision about the company based on the facts of the company. Companies could gain from this tactic since social media is in real time and can be shared and viewed by many people quickly.

1. A three-month t bill sold for a price of $99.311998 per $100 face value. What is the yield to maturity of this bond expressed as an Effective Annual Rate (as opposed to the Nominal Rate Rate)? Remember, the bond matures in 3 months, meaning C/Y = 4. First compute nominal rate and then figure out effective rate. Ok to solve with Excel

   	a	2.5%
   	b	2.8%
   	c	3.2%
   	d	4.0%

Payments on a $10000 loan are made quarterly in arrears (that is, at the end of each quarter) for 10 years. The annual effective rate of interest is 7%. Find the principal outstanding after the 6th payment, and the amount of principal in the 14th payment (using the amortization method in both cases).

Last year Miami Rivet had $5 million in operating income (EBIT). Its depreciation expense was $1 million, its interest expense was $1 million, and its corporate tax rate was 25%. At year-end, it had $14 million in operating current assets, $3 million in accounts payable, $1 million in accruals, $2 million in notes payable, and $15 million in net plant and equipment. Assume Miami Rivet has no excess cash. Miami Rivet uses only debt and common equity to fund its operations. (In other words, Miami Rivet has no preferred stock on its balance sheet.) Miami Rivet had no other current liabilities. Assume that Miami Rivet only noncash item was depreciation. Miami Rivet has 500,000 common shares outstanding, and the common stock amount on the balance sheet is $5 million. The company has not issued or repurchased common stock during the year. Last year’s balance in retained earnings was $11.2 million, and the firm paid out dividends of $1.8 million during the year. If the firm’s stock price at year-end is $52, what is the firm’s market value added (MVA)? If the firm’s after-tax percentage cost of capital is 9%, what is the firm’s Long-term debt at year-end? If the firm’s after-tax percentage cost of capital is 9%, what is the firm’s EVA at year-end?

I only need question about EVA Answered please!!! THank you!!!

Machine A costs $37,000 to purchase and is worth $8,000 in 5 years at the end of its service life. Machine B costs $20,000 to purchase and is worth $1,000 in 4 years at the end of its service life. Assume that these machines are needed for 20 years (required service period). Each machine can be repurchased at the same price in the future, and assume the annual maintenance cost of each machine is negligible. Use 8% annual interest rate. What is the Present Total Cost of the machine that should be purchased? Enter your answer as a positive number."

Mr tan is considering 2 potential investment projects that have similar capital requirements:

For project A,the company cost of capital is 14%.For project B,assessed as the riskier project of the two.,a risk adjusted cost of capital of 15% is considered appropriate.

1) calculate the NPV of the 2 projects and assess the projects using the investment appraisal technique of Net present Vale.

2)Calculate the IRR of the 2 projects and assess the projects using the investment appraisal technique of Internal rate of return.

3) Is the company cost of capital suitable in the evaluation of projects with different risks? Explain
