lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

-$1,500 more expensive

Explanation:

Calculation for How much cheaper or more expensive would it be to use the stainless-steel pump rather than a new brass pump

Using this formula

Cheaper or more expensive=Brass pump value-( Current pump value+Pump reconfigure extra amount spent)

Let plug in the formula

Cheaper or more expensive =$6,000-($7,000+$500)

Cheaper or more expensive =$6,000-$7,500

Cheaper or more expensive =-$1,500 more expensive

Therefore based on the information given the stainless steel pump will be $ 1500 more expensive than the brass pump.

"The S&H Construction Company expects to have total sales next year totaling $ 14 comma 700 comma 000. In addition, the fi

Novay_Z [31]

Answer: $480,350

Explanation:

Income is calculated by deducting expenses from the sales which includes the Cost of Goods sold.

The Cost of Goods sold is given to be 63% of the Sales Next year and the Operating Expenses are given to be 30% of the sales.

That means a total of,

= 63 + 30

= 93%

93% of the sales will be deducted from the sales as expenses.

$290,000 will also be owed as interest so needs to be removed from the sales as well.

Calculating that will give,

= 14,700,000 - 14,700,000(0.93) - 290,000

= 14,700,000 - 13,671,000 - 290,000

= $739,000

This is the income after interest and expenses.

Now the tax has to be accounted for.

With a tax rate of 35%, the income minus tax will be,

= 739,000 ( 1 - 0.35)

= 739,000 * 0.65

= $480,350

$480,350 is the after-tax estimate if income for the following year.

Viserion, Inc., is trying to determine its cost of debt. The firm has a debt issue outstanding with 25 years to maturity that is

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Pretax = 5.61%

After tax = 4.26%

Explanation:

The cost of debt will be the Yield to maturity of the bonds.

91 = present values of the 25 year annuity + present value of the maturity

There is no formula for exact YTM

we can either use excel or calculate by approximation:

In this case we will calcualte the YTM by aprroximation

$YTM = 2\times (\frac{C + \frac{F-P}{n }}{\frac{F+P}{2}})$

C= 25 cuopon payment 1,000 x 5% / 2 becayse paymenr are semiannually

F= 1000 the face value is 1,000

P= 910 the present value or market value is 91% of the face value

n= 50 25 year at 2 payment per year

$YTM = 2 \times (\frac{25 + \frac{1000-910}{50 }}{\frac{1000+910}{2}})$

dividend 26.8

divisor 955

YTM 5.6125654%

This will be the pretax cost of debt

then we calculate the after tax cost of debt

pre-tax cost of debt ( 1 - t ) = after-tax

5.61% ( 1 - .24 ) = 4,2636
