Answer:
A.
0.833
Explanation:
m = 3
Arrival rate, ra = 45 per hour
Service rate, re = 18 per hour per lane
Utilization factor = ra/(m.re)
= 45/(3*18)
= 0.833
Therefore, The utilization factor of the system is 0.833
Answer:
WACC= 17.95%
Explanation:
Weighted average cost of capital is the average cost of all of the long-term types of finance used by a company weighted according to the that amount of finance used in relation to the total pool of fund.
It is calculated using the formula below:
WACC = (We×Ke) + (Wd×Kd)
Ke-cost of equity- 22%
We- equity weight- 100% - 45% = 55%
Kd-After tax cost of debt-10.3%
Wd- 45%
After tax cost of debt = Before tax ×× (1- tax rate)
After tax cost of debt = 13%× (1-0.21) = 10.3%
Cost of equity = 22%
WACC =(0.55× 22%) + (0.45× 13%)=17.95%
WACC= 17.95%
Answer:
Find attached statement and the question which question number 10.
The correct option is C,$90
Explanation:
In the statement you would notice that the balance transfer from another credit card was $785,upon which balance transfer levy of $23.55 was charged(Section 7)
Intuitively, the percentage of balance transfer charge is $23.55 divided by the amount of balance transfer i.e $785
balance transfer charge(%)=$23.55/$785=3%
However, if the balance transfer were $3000,the charge is 3% of $3000 i.e $90 ($3000*3%).
The correct option then is C,$90
Answer:
5.37%
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
We can calculate the company’s after tax return on preferred by using following formula:-
Company’s After Tax Return = Before Tax Dividend Yield Rate on Preferred Stock × [1 - (1 - Dividend Exclusive) × (Tax Rate)]
= 6% × [1 - (1 - 70%) × (35%)]
= 0.06 × [1 - (1 - 0.70) × (0.35)]
= 0.06 × [1 - (0.30) × (0.35)]
= 0.06 × (1 - 0.105)
= 0.0537
= 5.37%
We simply applied the above formula to determine the company after tax return
Answer:
less desirable to other investors
Explanation:
<u>Given</u>: Current fixed coupon rate 5%
Market rate of interest 5%
New Market Rate of Interest 6%
Value of a bond is inversely related to economy interest rate or the yield to maturity (YTM). Value of a bond is expressed by the following equation:
wherein, C = Coupon rate of interest
YTM = Market Rate of Interest or interest rate in the economy or investor's expectation
n= Years to maturity
RV = Redemption value
In the given case, C = YTM i.e par value bond. When ytm rises to 6%, the value of the bond shall fall making such a bond less attractive since it represents lower coupon payments than investor expectations.
Thus, now the bond would be less desirable to other investors.
