Answer:

9.73%

Explanation:

the market value of equity = 10,000,000 stocks x $15 = $150,000,000

the market value of debt = 40,000 bonds x $1,150 = $46,000,000

total = $196,000,000

weight of equity = 0.7653

weight of debt = 0.2347

Re = 3.5% + [1.35 x (0.115 - 0.055)] = 0.035 + 0.081 = 0.116

cost of debt = ytm = {36.25 + [(1,000 - 1,150)/40]} /  [(1,000 + 1,150)/2] = (36.25 - 3.75) / 1,075 = 32.50 / 1,075 = 0.03023 x 2 = 0.0605

after tax cost of debt = 0.0605 x (1 - 40%) = 0.0363

WACC = (0.116 x 0.7653) + (0.0363 x 0.2347) = 0.09729 = 9.73%

Webster Corporation is preparing a master budget for the first quarter. The company budgets production of 2,960 units in January
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

$59,410

Explanation:

With regards to the above information, we need to calculate first, total number of units for first quarter of the year.

Total number of units for first quarter of the year = 2,960 + 2,740 + 3,440

= 9,140

But, each unit requires 0.5 hours of direct labor.

It therefore means that;

1 unit need ----- 0.5 hours of direct labor

9,140 ----- ?

= (9,140 × 0.5) / 1

= 4,570 hours.

Finally, we will multiply the total hours by the payment per hour, or direct labor rate; which is $13 per hour.

= 4,570 × $13

= $59,410

Therefore, the budgeted direct labor cost for the first quarter of the year is $59,410

A copy machine acquired with a cost of $1,410 has an estimated useful life of 4 years. It is also expected to have a useful oper
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

a. Straight-line method

Depreciation Expense for the first year: $333.75

b. Double-declining-balance method

Depreciation Expense for the first year: $667.5

c. Units-of-output method

Depreciation Expense for the first year: $450

Explanation:

a. Straight-line method

Depreciation Expense each year is calculated by following formula

Annual Depreciation Expense = (Cost of machine − Residual Value)/Useful Life = ($1,410 - $75)/4 = $333.75

Depreciation Expense for the first year: $333.75

b. Double-declining-balance method

Under the straight-line method, useful life is 4 years, so the asset's annual depreciation will be 25% of the Depreciable cost.

Depreciable cost = Total cost of machine - Residual value =  $1,410-$75 = $1.335

Under the double-declining-balance method the 25% straight line rate is doubled to 50% - multiplied times

Depreciation Expense for the first year = $1.335 x 50% = $667.5

c. Units-of-output method

Depreciation Expense per copy = (Cost of machine − Residual Value)/Life in Number of Units  = ($1,410 - $75)/13,350 = $0.1

Depreciation Expense for the first year = Depreciation Expense per copy x number of copies were made the first year = $0.1 x 4,500 = $450
