Answer:

1. In Year 2, if Blue Hamster has 5,000 shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding, then each preferred share should expect to receive $40 in annual dividends.

$200,000 / 5,000 = $40

2. If Blue Hamster has 400,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, then the firm’s earnings per share (EPS) is expected to change from $12.06 in Year 1 to $14.70 in Year 2.

$4,822,000 / 400,000 = $12.055

$5,881,750 / 400,000 = $14.70

3. Blue Hamster’s before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) value changed from $10,500,000 in Year 1 to $13,125,000 in Year 2.

$30,000,000 - $19,500,000 = $10,500,000

$37,500,000 - $24,375,000 = $13,125,000

4. It is incorrect to say that Blue Hamster’s net inflows and outflows of cash at the end of Years 1 and 2 are equal to the company’s annual contribution to retained earnings. This is because all but one of the item reported in the income statement involve payments and receipts of cash.

depreciation and amortization expenses are not cash outflows.
