A small research device can be purchased for $50,000 and depreciated by MACRS (check the property class). The net benefits from the device, before deducting depreciation, are $7,000 at the end of the first year and increasing $3,500 after that (second year equals $10,500, third year equals $14,000, etc.) until the device is hauled to the junkyard at the end of seven years. During the seven-year period, there will be an inflation rate (f) of 3%. The profitable corporation has a 25% combined federal and state income tax rate. If it requires a real 15% after-tax rate of return on its investment, should the device be purchased?

Two ice skaters, Daniel (mass 69.2 kg) and Rebecca (mass 50.1 kg) are practicing. Daniel stops to tie his shoelace and, while at rest, is struck by Rebecca, who is moving at12.7 m/s before she collides with him. After the collision, Rebecca has a velocity of magnitude 6.8 m/s at an angle of 50.1° from her initial direction. Both skaters move on the frictionless, horizontal surface of the rink.

(a) What are the magnitude and direction of Daniel's velocity after the collision?
m/s

(b) What is the change in total kinetic energy of the two skaters as a result of the collision?

You are a consultant to a large manufacturing corporation that is considering a project with the following net after-tax cash flows (in millions of dollars):

b. What is the highest possible beta estimate for the project before its NPV becomes negative? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

A corp is considering paying dividends to shareholders.The corp has a $2.00 of per share earnings before taxes. Corp tax rate is 21%, personal dividend income tax rate is 15%, personal non-dividend income tax is 25% What is the after-tax value that will accure to shareholders if all $2.00 is distributed and the corp is a C-corp. What is the after tax value that would accure to shareholders, but now assume it is an S-corp.

Please show work and some small explanations would be nice, i need to be able to know how to do this myself thanks!

Two cars collide at an intersection. Car A, with a mass of 1900 kg , is going from west to east, while car B , of mass 1400 kg , is going from north to south at 17 m/s . As a result of this collision, the two cars become enmeshed and move as one afterwards. In your role as an expert witness, you inspect the scene and determine that, after the collision, the enmeshed cars moved at an angle of 60 ∘ south of east from the point of impact. How fast were the enmeshed cars moving just after the collision? How fast was car A going just before the collision?

much kinetic energy is generated.(ii)What will be the mass of daughter nuclei ?
(b)How much energy would be generated from the nuclear fission of one mole of a nuclei with
Z = 92, R = 1:0fm(Assume the nuclear fission takes place as described in part (a)).

Answer each of the questions in the following unrelated situations.

(a) The current ratio of a company is 6:1 and its acid-test ratio is 1:1. If the inventories and prepaid items amount to $546,000, what is the amount of current liabilities?

(b) A company had an average inventory last year of $180,000 and its inventory turnover was 5. If sales volume and unit cost remain the same this year as last and inventory turnover is 8 this year, what will average inventory have to be during the current year? (Round answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125.)

(c) A company has current assets of $92,000 (of which $37,000 is inventory and prepaid items) and current liabilities of $37,000. What is the current ratio? What is the acid-test ratio? If the company borrows $14,000 cash from a bank on a 120-day loan, what will its current ratio be? What will the acid-test ratio be? (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 2.50.)

Evaluate the purchase of an existing 500 unit apartment complex for $20000000, the building is assumed to have a 20 year functional life. Treat the rents as being collected at the end of each year, along with associated variable and fixed costs. Assume rent controls will prohibit the rent from being raised over the life of the building. Assume that the underlying property reverts to the original owners at the end of twenty years, and that you will also be responsible for demolition and clean-up costs, to be incurred at the end of the building’s life.       Rentals are estimated at 450 units per year. Each unit will be rented for a cumulative monthly amount of $20000 per year. Cost per unit when rented $8000 per year. Fixed costs $3000000 per year for the building, other than the initial investment. Demolition/Clean up $4500000 after-tax. Depreciation is to be straight-line. Assume the project can be financed at 8% (before-tax) using debt. Tax Rate is 21%. Develop a pro forma income statement and compute the after-tax operating cash-flow (OCF). Suppose your firm uses the NPV rule in making investment decisions and your after-tax OCF is $2700000. Assume same full debt funding at 8%, tax rate is 21%, 20 year period, straight-line depreciation, initial investment of $20000000 and after-tax exit cost of $4500000. What will be the before-tax OCF?
