Do you agree with the following statement: AVC and MC intersect at the minimum of marginal cost. a. Yes, since an upward sloping
insens350 [35]

Answer: c. No, since the MC and AVC curve intersect at the minimum of AVC

Explanation:

Marginal cost is the cost of producing one extra unit of a product while average cost is the average of all the units produced so far. Therefore, when Marginal cost is low, it pulls the average costs down with it because it will be lower than the Average costs.

However, as Marginal costs start to rise, average cost will still be low because it is taking into account the lower previous marginal costs. Marginal cost will then keep rising until it intersects the average costs at it's minimum. Once this happens Average cost will start being pulled up because the current high costs will on average eclipse the current low costs.

The internal rate of return (IRR) refers to the compound annual rate of return that a project generates based on its up-front co
Sav [38]

Answer:

The answer and procedures of the exercise are attached in the following archives.

Explanation:

Consider this explanation too

The IRR is the project’s expected rate of return, assuming that intermediate cash flows also earn the IRR. If this return exceeds the cost of the capital invested in the project, the excess value goes to the firm’s shareholders. Therefore, independent projects whose IRR is greater than the WACC should be accepted.

Therefore in this case WACC of the project is 7% and IRR of the project is 1.86% which is less than WACC of the project. Hence the firm reject the project delta.

Calculation of IRR is based on Cash inflows and outflows for the number of years so that increase in cost of capital will not affect IRR.

ELEN [110]

Answer:

The unit cost for classic and gold is $34,96 and $8.35 respectively.

Explanation:

The computation of the unit cost for classic is shown below:

= (Processing transactions × activity rate + Preparing statements ×  activity rate + Answering questions × activity rate + Providing ATMs × activity rate) ÷ number of holders

= (12,000 × 0.20 + 12,000 × 0.95 + 24,000 × 4.00 + 48,000 × 1.50) ÷ 5,200 holders

= (2,400 + 11,400 + 96,000 + 72,000) ÷ 5,200 holders

= 181,800 ÷ 5,200 holders

= $34.96

The computation of the unit cost for Gold is shown below:

= (Processing transactions × activity rate + Preparing statements ×  activity rate + Answering questions × activity rate + Providing ATMs × activity rate) ÷ number of holders

= (7,200 × 0.20 + 7,200 × 0.95 + 36,000 × 4.00 + 14,400 × 1.50) ÷ 20,800 holders

= (1,440 + 6,840 + 144,000 + 21,600) ÷ 20,800 holders

= 173,880 ÷ 20,800 holders

= $8.35

On December 31, 2020, Berclair Inc. had 300 million shares of common stock and 4 million shares of 9%, $100 par value cumulative
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Basic Earnings Per Share = $299,640,000/291,858,904 shares = 1.03 per share

Diluted EPS =  $299,640,000/(291,858,904 + 6,000,000)  shares = 1.01 per share

Explanation:

300 million shares of common stock - 24 million Treasury Stock  = 276 million shares outstanding

CALCULATION OF WEIGHTED AVERAGE NUMBER OF SHARES

Date Shares             Weighting (months)           Weighted Average

Jan 1 276,000,000                12/12                               276,000,000

1st July  13,800,000(5% of 276) 6/12                                   6,900,000

13th Sept 30,000,000          109/365 days                  8,958,904.11

Total                                                                          291,858,904

Profit attributable to common shares  = Net Income $300,000,000 – (Preference Dividend of 0.09 x 4,000,000) $360,000 = $299,640,000

The formula for basic earnings per share is:

<em>Profit or loss attributable to common equity holders of the parent business ÷ </em>

<em>Weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period </em>

Basic Earnings Per Share = $299,640,000/291,858,904 shares= 1.03 per share

Diluted EPS will include $500 million of 8% bonds, convertible into 6 million common shares.

Diluted EPS =  $299,640,000/(291,858,904 + 6,000,000)shares  = 1.01 per share
