Micro Advantage issued a $5,250,000 par value, 15-year bond a year ago at 94 (i.e., 94% of par value) with a stated rate of 10%.

Today, the bond is selling at 115 (i.e., 115% of par value). If the firm’s tax bracket is 30%, what is the current after-tax cost of this debt?

Answer:

7.45%

Explanation:

Total amount the firm received from bond issuance = $5,250,000 * 94%

= $4,935,000

The total coupon must be paid to bond holder annually

= Par value of $5,250,000 * coupon rate of 10%

= $5,250,000 * 10%

= $525,000

Rate of coupon paid over loan received = $525,000/ $4,935,000 = 10.64%

After-tax cost of this debt = 10.64%*(1-30%) = 7.45%

What problems could develop if the us became too dependent on other nations for goods and services
xeze [42]

Answer:

TRADE DEFICIT

FOREIGN CURRENCY RESERVE DEPLETION

LOCAL CURRENCY DEVALUATION

RECESSION

POTENTIAL UNEMPLOYMENT

Explanation:

The problem that could develop if the U.S. became too dependent on other nations for goods and services are:

1. Trade deficit because when a country imports more than it exports it runs a trade deficit.

2. Foreign Currency Reserve Depletion: If the U.S. has to import so much from other countries, it will need to increase its foreign reserve because that is how it will pay for such imports. Otherwise the foreign reserve will be hugely depleted

3. Local Currency Devaluation. Reliance on exports can devalue the worth of the local currency because the demand of the foreign currency will be high in relation to local currency and people will be willing to pay more to get foreign currency, which will devalue the local currency

4. Recession: If the United States is reliant on OPEC countries for Oil and an embargo is placed on oil export from those, the U.S. will suffer a recession.

5. Potential Unemployment: Imports of finished goods will cripple local industries who will be forced to compete with the international firms whose goods and services are being imported; and those employed in such industries might loose their jobs, if the small local enterprises are unable to survive such competition.

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. An internal cost

Explanation:

An internal cost is cost the internal struggle that is going on within oneself. Unlike external cost, it is not paid through material things, rather it is paid by internal mental strategies.

This is an example of an internal struggle because the roommate cannot be categorized into a third party, and it is your internal struggle that you cannot focus while there is noise. For some people, noise helps to concentrate.

Therefore, it would be considered as the internal cost that you pay due to your roommate.
