For 2015, Bargain Basement Stores reported $11,500 of sales and $5,000 of operating costs (including depreciation). The company has $20,500 of total invested capital, the weighted average cost of that capital (the WACC) was 13%, and the federal-plus-state income tax rate was 40%.
1. What was the firm's Economic Value Added (EVA), i.e., how much value did management add to stockholders' wealth during 2014?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Management add $1,235 to shareholder's wealth during 2014

Explanation:

EVA = NOPAT - Finance charge

Net Operating Profit After Tax(NOPAT)  = Operating Income -Tax

Operating Income = $11,500 - $5,000

                              = $6,500

Tax = 40% x $6,500

      =$2,600

NOPAT= $6,500-$2,600

            =$3,900

Finance charge = (WACC x Capital Invested)

                          =13% x $20,500

                          =$2,665

EVA = $3,900 - $2,665

        =$1,235

Hence, management add $1,235 to shareholder's wealth during 2014
