Joe Pie is considering investing in a Heaven Piza franchise that will require an initial outlay of $100,000. He conducted market research and found that after-tax cash flows on this investment should be about $20,000 a year for the next 7 years. The franchiser stated that Herb will generate a 20 percent rate of return. He currently has his money in a mutual fund which has grown at an average annual rate of 10 percent. He tells the franchiser that money has a time value and the actual rate of return according to his calculations is much less than 20 percent.
a) Do you agree with the franchiser or with Joe?

b) What rate of return is the franchiser using and what method did Heaven Pizza use to calculate it?

c) What rate of return is Joe using and what method did he use?

d) Should Joe make the investment? Explain your answer.

Faldo corp sells on terms that allow customers 45 days to pay for merchandise. its sales last year were $325,000, and its year-end receivables were $60,000. if its dso is less than the 45-day credit period, then customers are paying on time. otherwise, they are paying late. by how much are customers paying early or late? base your answer on this equation: dso - credit period = days early or late, and use a 365-day year when calculating the dso. a positive answer indicates late payments, while a negative answer indicates early payments.a. 21.27b. 22.38c. 23.50d. 24.68e. 25.91b
