timama [110]

Answer:

weighted cost of capital for next year is 10.27 %.

Explanation:

Weighted cost of capital = Ke × (E/V) + Kd × (D/V)

Ke = Cost of Equity

    = Dividend Yield + Expected growth rate

    = $1.30 / $30.00 + 0.07

    = 0.11333 or 11.33 %

Kd = Cost of Debt

     = Interest × (1 - tax rate)

     = 11% × ( 1 - 0.21)

     = 8.69 %

Weighted cost of capital =  11.33 % × 60% + 8.69 % × 40%

                                         = 10.27 %

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

B. $23,000

Thus,

Total current assets = Cash + account receivable + supplies + prepaid rents + inventories.

Therefore

Total current assets = 7000 + 6000 + 1000 + 4000 + 5000

= $23,000

Note: Land is not included in CURRENT asset. Land are longterm assets.
