Ingot Company’s excavation machine is permanently impaired. Its purchase price was $1,600,000 and its accumulated depreciation was $800,000 through 2004. The present value of its future cash flows is $500,000. The write-down of the excavation machine will cause Ingot’s total debt ratio (total debt-to-total capital) to: A) decrease from 0.44 to 0.40. B) increase from 0.44 to 0.51. C) increase from 0.44 to 0.48. Correct answer is B) The write-down of the excavation machine in the amount of ((($1,600,000 − $800,000) − $500,000) =) $300,000 decreases retained earnings from $490,000 to $190,000. The total debt to equity ratio increases from (($290,000 + $740,000) / ($290,000 + $740,000 + $800,000 + $490,000) =) 0.44 to (($290,000 + $740,000) / ($290,000 + $740,000 + $800,000 + $190,000) =) 0.51. |
