11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is the cost of a firm from permanent sources of capital pooled together.

WACC = Cost of equity x Weight of equity + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt + Cost of Preference Stock x Weight of Preference Stock

where,

Cost of equity = Return on Risk free rate + Beta x Risk Premium

= 9.00 % + 2.5 x (14.00 % - 9.00%)

= 21.50 %

Cost of debt :

N = 7 x 2 = 14

p/yr = 2

pmt = ($787.22 x 8%) ÷ 2 =

fv = $787.22 x number of bonds

pv = $80,000,000

Always use the after tax cost of debt :

Wild company purchased an asset. Wild used the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) to depreciate the asset for tax

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The correct answer is A.

All other things being equal, in the early years of the asset's life, the amount of income shown on the tax return will be higher than the amount of income shown on the income state.

Here's why

Explanation:

In the United States, the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) is a depreciation system used for tax purposes.

It allows the capitalized cost of an asset to be recovered over a specified period via annual deductions. The MACRS system puts fixed assets into classes that have set depreciation periods.

This depreciation system allows an asset to be depreciated faster in the first years of an asset's life and slows depreciation later on. This is beneficial to businesses from a tax perspective.

This is logical, the less the value of an assets, the less the property tax applicable to it and so the company increases it's bottom line in tax savings whiles maximizing the useful life of the asset.

Cheers!

The 20% down payment which is target savings =$165,000*20%=$33,000

The are two paychecks which is $1,400 each

monthly savings is one paycheck=$1,400

rate of compounding is 7.83% yearly=7.83%/12=0.006525 monthly

The number of months the savings will reach $33,000 can be computed using the nper formula in excel as shown below:

=nper(rate,pmt,-pv,fv)

rate is the monthly rate i,e 0.006525

pmt is the monthly savings of $1,400

pv is the present worth of the savings which is unknown

fv is the future value of target savings which is $33,000

=nper(0.006525,-1400,0,33000)=22 months approximately

The accountant of Omega, Inc. failed to make an adjusting entry to record $6,000 of unearned service revenue that has now been

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

The answer is A. The total revenue will be understated

Explanation:

Unearned revenue is when the amount or money has been received before providing the service. For example, a manufacturer has received money from a customer for a product that will be delivered over a period of time, let's say every month.

Unearned revenue is a liability but the failure to make an adjusting entry in the income statement will understate revenue because as the product is being delivered monthly, the accountant should be recognizing it as revenue in the Income statement. As this is recognized as revenue, unearned revenue account decreases with the same amount monthly

zlopas [31]

Answer:

The increase in savings resulting directly from this change in income is $500

The marginal propensity to save (MPS) is 0.25

Explanation:

In order to calculate The increase in savings resulting directly from this change in income we would have to make the following calculation:

increase in savings resulting directly from this change in income= increase in income - increase in consumption

increase in savings resulting directly from this change in income= $2,000 - $1,500

increase in savings resulting directly from this change in income=$500

The Marginal propensity to save = increase in savings/increase in income =

Marginal propensity to save = $500/$2.000

Marginal propensity to save =0.25
