M8-1 evaluating the decision to extend credit [lo 8-1]

nutware productions inc. (npi) generated service revenue of $30,000 and income from operations of $10,000. the company estimates that, had it extended credit, it would have instead generated $50,000 of service revenue but also it would have incurred $25,000 of additional expenses for wages and bad debts.

a-1.
using these estimates, calculate the amount by which npi's income from operations would increase (decrease) by extending credit. (do not round intermediate calculations.)

The typical consumer's food basket in the base year 2015 is as follows: 30 chickens at $4 each 10 hams at $5 each 10 steaks at $8 each a chicken feed shortage causes the price of chickens to rise to $5.00 each in the year 2016. hams rise to $7.00 each, and the price of steaks is unchanged. a. calculate the change in the "cost-of-eating" index between 2015 and 2016. year cost of the basket 2015 $ 2016 $ instructions: enter your responses rounded to one decimal place. the official cost-of-eating index has by %. b. suppose that consumers are completely indifferent between two chickens and one ham. for this example, how large is the substitution bias in the official "cost-of-eating" index? the in the cost-of-eating index is %. the of inflation in the cost of eating reflects substitution bias.

Afirm's before-tax cost of debt, rd, is the interest rate that the firm must pay on debt. because interest is tax deductible, the relevant cost of debt used to calculate a firm's wacc is the cost of debt, rd (1 – t). the cost of debt is used in calculating the wacc because we are interested in maximizing the value of the firm's stock, and the stock price depends on cash flows. it is important to emphasize that the cost of debt is the interest rate on debt, not debt because our primary concern with the cost of capital is its use in capital budgeting decisions. the rate at which the firm has borrowed in the past is because we need to know the cost of capital. for these reasons, the on outstanding debt (which reflects current market conditions) is a better measure of the cost of debt than the . the on the company's -term debt is generally used to calculate the cost of debt because more often than not, the capital is being raised to fund -term projects. quantitative problem: 5 years ago, barton industries issued 25-year noncallable, semiannual bonds with a $1,600 face value and a 8% coupon, semiannual payment ($64 payment every 6 months). the bonds currently sell for $845.87. if the firm's marginal tax rate is 40%, what is the firm's after-tax cost of debt? round your answer to 2 decimal places. do not round intermediate calcu

The struter partnership has total partners’ equity of $510,000, which is made up of main, capital, $400,000, and frist, capital, $110,000. the partners share net income and loss in a ratio of 80% to main and 20% to frist. on november 1, adison is admitted to the partnership and given a 15% interest in equity and a 15% share in any income and loss. prepare journal entries to record the admission of adison for a 15% interest in the equity and a 15% share in any income and loss under the following independent assumptions. (1) record the admission of adison with an investment of $90,000 for a 15% interest in the equity and a 15% share in any income and loss. (2) record the admission of adison with an investment of $120,000 for a 15% interest in the equity and a 15% share in any income and loss. (3) record the admission of adison with an investment of $80,000 for a 15% interest in the equity and a 15% share in any income and loss.
