Answer:

8.038%

Explanation:

For the computation of the firm's WACC first we need to find out the cost of equity which is shown below:-

Cost of equity = Expected dividend ÷ (Price of the stock × (1 - Flotation cost)) + Growth rate

= $0.65 ÷ ($15.00 × (1 - 10%)) + 6.00%

= 10.81%

Now

WACC = Weight debt × (Cost of debt) × (1 - Tax rate) + Weight of equity × Cost of equity

= 45% × 7.75% × (1 - 40%) + 55% × 10.81%

= 8.038%

You are considering investing in a GM bond with 7 years to maturity. The face value of the bond is $1,000. The coupon rate is 6%
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Price of bond is = $ 1057

Explanation:

As we know that;

Price of bond = C * [1-(1+r)∧-n] / r  +   F / (1+r)∧n

where C = periodic coupon payment = 1000 * 6%= 60

         F = Face value of bond = 1000

        r = yield to maturity = 5% = 0.05

        n = number of periods till maturity = 7 years

         Putting values;

              = 60 * [ 1- (1+ 0.05)∧-7 ]/ 0.05  +  1000 / (1+0.05)∧7

              = 60 * (0.2893 / 0.05) +   710

             =  60 * 5.786 +  710

              =  347.16 +710

              =  1057

In need of extra​ cash, Troy and Lily decide to withdraw ​$2 comma 100 from their traditional IRA. They are both 40 years old. T
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Calculate the tax consequence of withdrawal from retirement account.

T and L are 40 years old and decide to withdraw $2,100 from their IRA. They lie in a 35% marginal tax bracket.

Analysis

They are withdrawing some amount from their retirement fund. They have to pay the tax and penalty for early withdrawals from the retirement fund. The withdrawal amount is $2,100 so they have to pay tax on it. The tax rate will be 35% which is their marginal tax bracket.

Calculation of tax consequences if withdrawal amount is $2,100:

Ordinary income tax amount calculates by multiplying the withdrawal amount with the ordinary tax rate.

= $2100 × 35%

= $735

The withdrawal amount attracts the 10% penalty. So, the penalty amount is calculated as follows: Penalty on withdrawn funds calculates by multiplying the withdrawn funds with the percentage of penalty.

= $2100 × 10%

= $210

(NOTE: - T and L have to pay ordinary income tax along with the penalty on their withdrawal because they are withdrawing funds from their IRA before age 59.5.)

Total expenses include the tax amount and penalty charge on withdrawal amount. So, it is calculated as follows:

Total expenses =$735 + $210

Total expenses = $945

Conclusion

Therefore, T and L would incur a tax of $945 on their withdrawal. This $945 is the sum of income tax amount and penalty on withdrawal balance.

Georgia [21]

Answer: $200,100

Explanation:

Given that,

Units sold = 15,000

Sales Revenue = $510,000

Purchases​ (excluding Freight​ In) = $310,500

Selling and Administrative Expenses = $36,000

Freight In = $15,900

Beginning Merchandise Inventory = $42,500

Ending Merchandise Inventory = $59,000

Cost of goods sold = Beginning Merchandise Inventory + Purchases​ + Freight In - Ending Merchandise Inventory

                                = $42,500 + $310,500 + $15,900 - $59,000

                                = $309,900

Gross Profit = Sales Revenue - Cost of goods sold

                    = $510,000 - $309,900

                    = $200,100
