Answer to Problem 25P

The net profit for the year is $47.5M.

Explanation of Solution

Calculation:

Calculate the total revenue.

TotalRevenue=(OperatingRevenue)+(NonOperatingRevenue)         ...... (I).

Substitute $124M for Operating revenue and $36M for NonOperatingRevenue in Equation (I).

TotalRevenue=$124M+$36M=$160M

Write the expression to calculate the total expenses.

TotalExpenses=(OperatingExpenses)+(NonOperatingExpenses)         ...... (II)

Substitute $70M for Operating Expenses and $35M for Non Operating Expenses in Equation (II).

TotalExpenses=$70M+$35M=$105M

Write the expression to calculate the profit before taxes.

ProfitBeforetaxes=(TotalRevenue)(TotalExpenses)         ...... (III).

Substitute $160M for TotalRevenue and $105M for Total Expenses.

ProfitBeforetaxes=$160M$105M=$55M

Calculate the profit after tax

Profitaftertax=$55M$7.5M=$47.5M.

Conclusion:

Thus, the net profit for the year is $47.5M.

(c)

The interest coverage ratio and net profit ratio, whether the interest coverage ratio is acceptable or not.

The interest coverage ratio is 2.57.

The net profit ratio is 98.96%.

Since, the Interest coverage ratio for an industrial firm should be at least 3 but the obtained interest coverage ratio is less than 3.

Hence it is not acceptable.

Calculation:

Write the expression to calculate the Total income.

TotalIncome=(TotalRevenue)(AllExpense)         ...... (IV)

Substitute $160 for Total Revenue and $70 for All Expenses in Equation (IV).

TotalIncome=$160$70=$90

Write the expression to calculate the Interest Coverage Ratio.

InterestCoverageRatio=TotalIncomeInterestPayment         ...... (V)

Substitute $90 for Total Income and $35 for interest payment in Equation (V).

InterestCoverageRatio=$90$35=2.57

Since, the Interest coverage ratio for an industrial firm should be at least 3 but the obtained interest coverage ratio is less than 3.

Hence it is not acceptable.

Write the expression to calculate the net profit ratio.

NetProfitRatio=(NetProfitNetSales)         ...... (VI)

Substitute $47.5 for Net Profit and $48 for NetSales in Equation (VI).

NetProfitRatio=($47.5$48)=0.9896=(0.9896×100)%=98.96%.

Conclusion:

The interest coverage ratio is 2.57.

The net profit Ratio is 98.96%.

Since, the Interest coverage ratio for an industrial firm should be at least 3 but the obtained interest coverage ratio is less than 3.

Hence it is not acceptable.

It is possible to use transformational leadership strategies to reach unethical objectives.  Traditional leadership theories and morals standards are not adequate to help employees solve complex organizational issues. For the statement above, argue in position for both in favor or opposed to the statements.
Discuss the preferred deterrent method employed by the Zambian government to combat tax evasion, monetary fines. As noted in the reading the potential penalty for corporate tax evasion is a fine of 52.5% of the amount evaded plus interest assessed at 5% annually along with a possibility of jail time. In general, monetary fines as a deterrent are preferred to blacklisting of company directors, revoking business operation licenses, or calling for prison sentences. Do you agree with this preference? Should companies that are guilty of tax evasion face something more severe than a monetary fine? Something less severe? Should the fine and interest amount be set at a different rate? If so at why? Provide support and rationale for your responses.
