EBIT times one minus the tax rate

A firm's net operating profit after taxes (NOPAT) is calculated as:

Collateral

Banks tend to reduce the risk of default associated with making loans through their use of which of the following?

Cash ratio

Cash plus cash equivalents plus marketable securities divided by current liabilities is the calculation for which financial measure?

Acid Test

Current assets less inventory divided by current liabilities is the calculation for which financial measure?

$315,000 NOPAT = $450,000 x (1 - .30) = $315,000

Estimate a firm's NOPAT based on: Net sales = $2,000,000; EBIT = $450,000; Net income = $20,000; and Effective tax rate = 30%.

80% Contribution profit margin = 1 - ($20,000 / $100,000) = 0.80 or 80% of revenues

Find the contribution profit margin based on the following information: cash fixed costs = $40,000; COGS = $20,000; and sales = $100,000

80% Contribution profit margin = 1 - VCRR. VCRR = VC / Revenue.Contribution profit margin = 1 - ($20,000 / $100,000) = 0.80 or 80% of revenues

Find the contribution profit margin based on the following information: cash fixed costs = $40,000; COGS = $20,000; and sales = $100,000.

False

For a venture with inventories, the quick ratio will always be greater than the current ratio.

$45,500 NOPAT = EBIT x (1 - tax rate). EBIT = (Revenues - COGS - Operating Expenses) NOPAT = ($200,000 - $75,000 - ($25,000 + $25,000 + $10,000)) x (1 - 0.30) = $45,500

Last year a firm had sales of $200,000. Its cost of goods sold was $75,000, and administrative and marketing expenses were $25,000 each. Depreciation expense was $10,000, while interest expense was $15,000. If the tax rate is 30%, what was the firm's NOPAT last year?

$400,000

Use the following information to determine the cash fixed costs: Administrative expenses = $200,000; Marketing expenses = $180,000; Depreciation expenses = $100,000; and Interest expenses = $20,000.

$400,000 Cash fixed costs (CFC) is related to EBDAT which calculates as; Administrative expenses $200,000 + Marketing expenses $180,000 + Interest expenses $20,000 = $ 400,000

$400,000 SR = [($180,000 + $200,000 + $20,000) / (1 - .50)] = $800,000
