Respuesta :

Answer:

$1,135.05

Explanation:

Given:

Sales = $15,900

Net new equity = $500

Dividend payments = $75

Retained earnings = $418

Depreciation = $680

Interest expense = $511

Tax rate = 21% = 0.21

Now,

Net income = Retained earnings + Dividend payments

= $418 + $75

= $493

Profit before tax = Net income ÷ ( 1 - tax rate )

= $493 ÷ ( 1 - 0.21 )

= $624.05

Therefore,

Earnings before interest and taxes

= Profit before tax + Interest expense

= $624.05 + $511

= $1,135.05
