Expert Solution

(a)

Return on equity = (Net Income/ Equity)*100

= (5669/14644)*100

= 38.7%

Therefore ROE is 38.7

(b)

Economic Value Added= Net Operating Profit After Tax - (Weightage Avg. Cost of Capital * Capital Employed)

Net Operating Profit After Tax = Earning before Interest and Tax * (1- tax rate)

= 9931*(1-0.35)

=$ 6455.15

Capital Employed= DEBT + EQUITY

= 17167+14644

= $ 31811

Cost of debt after considering tax = 8%(1-tax rate)

= 8*0.65

= 5.2%

Weightage Avg. Cost of Capital = Cost of debt* (Weightage of debt/ Total of debt and equity)

+ Cost of equity * (Weightage of debt/ Total of debt and equity)

= 5.2%* (17167/31811) + 25%( 14644/31811)

= 2.806% + 11.509%

= 14.315%

Therefore

EVA = 6455.15 - (31811*14.315%)

= 6455.15 - 4553.74

= 1901 ROUND OFF

In the given case, return on equity (38.7%) is higher than is higher than the desired rate of return(25%)

Further EVA is also Positive.

Therefore, performance of Fiterman Inc. is good.
