As Financial Manager what would be your decision on assets and investment matters to meet profit maximization? Analyze carefully and encircle your best answer.

Based on the profit- maximization goal, the financial manager would choose ASSET YEAR YEAR A. Asset 1 1 2 B.

Pls solve all. If we consider the storage cost of $0.35/bu at the beginning, recalculate the following questions: 1. Suppose the elevator buys 100,000 bushels of corn on Nov 1 at $2.00/bu in cash market, and store the corn to sell in the cash market until Jun 1 at $2.30/bu. What is the elevators gain or loss in cash market? 2. On Nov 1, the elevator could sell corn futures contract at $2.50/bu and buy the contract back on Jun 1 at $2.4/bu. What is the elevators gain or loss in futures market? 3. Calculate the basis for both Nov 1 and Jun 1. 4. Calculate the total return of corn to the elevator through such hedging in the futures market? 5. What is the net profit/loss through above hedging in the futures market?
For example, if you a simple average of 5 year of either income or cash flow of:year 1 100year2 100year 3 100year 4 100year 5 100total 500average 100cap rate 0.2value 500 Now you go to the balance sheet as of the valuation date and have a cash balance of $500 and the industry working capital benchmark is $200, is it fair to add $300 to the value of the business? That is really the question. In practice, particularly matrimonial valuations, some practitioners would opine, if the owner sells the business they would realize $500 in value plus $300 in excess working capital for a total value of $800. Remember the value included the $300 ($100 each year), possibly not distributed cash flow/earnings, is that really value?

The Borstal Company has to choose between two machines that do the same job but have different lives. The two machines have the following costs: Year Machine A Machine B $42,500 10,500 10,500 10,500 + replace $52,500 9,000 9,000 9,000 9,000 + replace 4 These costs are expressed in real terms. Suppose that technological change is expected to reduce costs by 10% per year. There will be new machines in year 1 that cost 10% less to buy and operate than A and B. In year 2, there will be a second crop of new machines incorporating a further 10% reduction, and so on. Suppose you are Borstal's financial manager. If you had to buy one or the other machine and rent it to the production manager for that machine's economic life, what annual rental payment would you have to charge at the end of the first year and how would this alter in subsequent years given the expected technological changes? Assume a 9% real discount rate and ignore E taxes. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your…
