Answer:

$321,600

Explanation:

debt equity ratio = debt / equity

since the debt to equity is 0.8, that means that for every $ invested from equity, $0.80 will be borrowed. If the new project requires an initial cash outlay of $300,000:

  • then $300,000 / $1.80 = $166,667 will be new equity
  • and $133,333 will be new debt

total cost of initial outlay including flotation costs = ($166,667 x 1.09) + ($133,333 x 1.0495) = $181,667 +  $139,933 = $321,600

flotation costs include all the costs associated with issuing new stocks or taking new debt.

natali 33 [55]

The break-even point is calculated as -

Break-even point (in units) = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit

Here,

Selling price = $ 21.95

Variable cost (manufacturing costs) = $ 14.92 (since, costs bifurcation is not given, the manufacturing costs are taken as variable costs)

Contribution per unit = Selling price - Variable cost (manufacturing costs)

Contribution per unit = $ 7.03

Fixed cost (monthly) = $ 8500

Now,

Break-even point (in units) = $ 8,500 ÷ $ 7.03

Break-even point (in units) = 1,209.1 or 1210 games
