Current projections indicate that by the year 2030, there will be 2.0 tax-paying workers for every retiree collecting Social Security.

  • A tax is a mandatory fee or financial charge that a government imposes on a person or a business in order to raise money for public projects like building the greatest infrastructure and services. Different public expenditure programs are then funded with the funds that have been raised.
  • There are two main categories of taxes: direct taxes and indirect taxes. Both taxes are implemented in different ways. Some taxes, like the dreaded income tax and corporate tax, are paid directly by you, while others, like sales tax and service tax, are paid inadvertently.
  • The government uses taxes to fund a variety of welfare programs, including job initiatives.

Thus this is the answer.

Carson’s Ribs, Inc. has hired you to calculate its WACC. • Debt: It currently issues 10-year bonds with an annual coupon of 5.5%
hoa [83]

Answer:

WACC =9.902%

Explanation:

Lets first understand what WACC is. WACC or weighted average cost of capital represents the total cost of financing. Now there are two main sources of long-term finance available to an entity, DEBT and EQUITY. Each source of finance has a different cost which highly depends upon the RISK PROFILE and RISK APPETITE of an entity. Some entities prefer debt financing over equity while some consider equity as more reliable source of finance.

When an entity takes finance from each source, it finds itself with a pool of funds which are then allocated based on priorities. WACC is the cost of the 'POOL OF FUNDS' (i.e an average cost of both debt and equity).

The formula of WACC is as follows:

WACC= ke×(E/V) + kd×(d/V)

ke= cost of equity

E= market value of equity

V= combined value of debt and equity

kd= cost of debt

So in order to find WACC we need to first calculate Ke and Kd.

Cost of equity can be calculated using the formula mentioned below.

ke= {d(1+g) ÷ p×(1-0.05)} + g

ke= cost of equity

d= dividend per share

g= growth rate

p= market price per share

ke= {$1(1.1) ÷ $45×( 1-0.05)} + 0.1

ke=  12.5%

Cost of Debt can be calculated using the formula below.

kd= i×(1-t)÷p

i= interest (5.5%×%1000=$55)

t= tax

p= market value of debt

kd= $55×(1-0.25)÷1075

kd= 3.84%

NOTE: (SINCE WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH INFORMATION IN ORDER TO CALCULATE TOTAL MARKET VALUES OF DEBT AND EQUITY, WE CAN USE THE TARGET CAPITAL STRUCTURE TO COMPUTE WACC)

WACC = (12.5%×70÷100) + (3.84%×30÷100)

WACC= 8.75%+ 1.152%

WACC =9.902%

velikii [3]

Answer:

The journal entry should be:

Dr Merchandise Inventory account 50,000

Cr Retained Earnings account 50,000

Explanation:

Since Oscar's merchandise inventory was understated by $50,000 because of the previous inventory method (LIFO), when the new method, FIFO, starts to be used then the merchandise inventory must increase by $50,000 as well as retained earnings.

Merchandise inventory is an asset account and it increases, therefore it should be debited.

Retained earnings is an equity account and it increases, therefore it should be credited.

Paper Submarine Manufacturing is investigating a lockbox system to reduce its collection time. It has determined the following:
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

-1,185,282.35‬

Explanation:

The average daily collections are the average number of payments times the average value of a payment, so:

Average daily collections = =355 * 945

Average daily collections = $335,475

The present value of the lockbox service is the average daily receipts times the number of days the collection is reduced, so:

     PV = (4 day reduction)( $335,475)

     PV = $1,341,900‬

 The daily cost is a perpetuity. The present value of the cost is the daily cost divided by the daily interest rate. So:      

     PV of cost = (.3*355)/.00068

           PV of cost = $106.5/.00068= $156,617.65

     The firm should take the lockbox service. The NPV of the lockbox is the cost plus the present value of the reduction in collection time, so:

     NPV = $156,617.65 - 1,341,900

           NPV = -1,185,282.35‬
