Question

1)Please indicate true or false for each subpart

a) A company is analyzing a potential additional project that would result in $1,000,000 additional net income. If an additional $1,000,000 in income is earned,the average tax rate is 30% and the marginal tax rate is 34% an additional $300,000 in taxes will be paid.

b)The present value of $50,000 to be received 10 years from now at 8% interest is about $23,160.

c) Gross profit will help to determine how effective a company has been with their operating expenses.

d)Yield to maturity is the return of a bond investment if held to maturity

e) Net profit margin is calculated by taking net profit divided by operating profit.

Explanation / Answer

a.

False, the additional income is $1,000,000 and thus the taxes are $1000,000*0.34 = $340,000.

Marginal tax rate is paid for every additional income earned by the company and not the average tax rate.

therefore, marginal tax rate will be considered that is 34%.

b.

Future Value = $50000

Nper = 10 years

rate = 8%

Compute the present value of the amount using excel function.

PV = PV(Rate,Nper,Pmt,FV) = PV(8%,10,0,-50000) = $23,159.67.

Therefore, the statement is true.

c.False

Gross profit will help to determine how effective the company has been with the trading (manufacturing )expenses.

d.

True.

YTM is the return of a bond investment if held to maturity.
