Answer:

2.9652%

Explanation:

to determine the cost of debt we must use the FMV of the bonds plus the YTM:

first bond:

FMV = 1.09 x $1,000 = $1,090 x 3,600 bonds = $3,924,000

YTM = {C + [(F - P)/n]} / [(F + P)/2] = {17.5 + [(1000 - 1090)/16]} / [(1000 + 1090)/2] = (17.5 - 5.625) / 1045 = 1.136% x 2 = 2.27% annual

second bond:

FMV = 0.95 x $2,000 = $1,900 x 3,950 bonds = $7,505,000

YTM = {C + [(F - P)/n]} / [(F + P)/2] = {59.4 + [(2000 - 1900)/42]} / [(2000 + 1900)/2] = (59.4 + 2.38) / 1950 = 3.168% x 2 = 6.34% annual

total debt = $3,924,000 + $7,505,000 = $11,429,000

weighted average after tax cost of debt:

{($3,924,000/$11,429,000 x 2.27%) + ($7,505,000/$11,429,000 x 6.34%)} x (1 - 0.40) = (0.779% + 4.163%) x 0.6 = 4.942% x 0.6 = 2.9652%

Aberwald Corporation expects to sell 90,000 bags of lawn fertilizer annually. The optimal safety stock (which is on hand initial
UNO [17]

Answer:

Annual demand (U) = 90.000 bags

Cost of each bag = $1.50

Inventory carrying cost per unit(C) = $1.50 × 20% = 0 30

Ordering cost per unit (O) = $15

Part A)

EOQ = \sqrt{\frac{2UO}{C}}

EOQ = \sqrt{\frac{2 * 90000 * 15}{0.30}}

EOQ = \sqrt{9000000}

EOQ = 3,000

Part B)

Maximum inventory = EOQ + Safety inventory on hand  

Maximum inventory = 3000 + 1000

Maximum inventory = 4.000

Part C)

Average inventory = Maximum inventory + Minimum or Safety /2

Average inventory = 4,000 + 1,000 / 2

Average inventory =2,500

Part D)

How often company order = Annual demand / EOQ

How often company order = 90,000 / 3.000

How often company order = 30

budget deficit = savings + trade deficit - investments

the government deficit as a share of GDP declined and investment as a share of GDP remained constant that means that the savings should decline.
