Plan A = 8.55%

Plan A =8.57%

Plan A =7.9%

Plan A =6.58%

Explanation:

The weighted average cost of capital can be computed by multiplying the Cost of capital (after tax) with the weights. The weighted average cost for four plans are as follows

WACC = Cost of capital x Weights

PLAN A

                                Weights      Cost of capital      WACC

Debt                         3.0 %                    15 %                0.45%    

Preferred stock       6.0                        10%                0.6%

Common equity      10.0                      75%               7.5%

WACC                                                                          8.55%

PLAN B

                                Weights      Cost of capital      WACC

Debt                         3.2 %                  25%                0.8%    

Preferred stock       6.2                      10%                0.62%

Common equity      11.0                      65%               7.15%

WACC                                                                         8.57%

PLAN C

                                Weights      Cost of capital      WACC

Debt                          4.0 %                   35 %                1.4%    

Preferred stock        6.7                        10%                0.67%

Common equity       10.6                      55%               5.83%

WACC                                                                          7.90%

PLAN D

                                Weights      Cost of capital      WACC

Debt                         7.0 %                   45 %                3.15%    

Preferred stock       7.6                       10%                 0.76%

Common equity       12.6                     45%                5.67%

lesantik [10]

Answer:  The average collection period of the receivables in terms of days was 73 days.

Explanation:

Given that,

Accounts Receivable at the beginning of the year = $390,000

Accounts Receivable at the end of the year = $410,000

Net credit sales during the year = $2,000,000

Average collection period of the receivables in terms of days:

Average accounts receivables = \frac{410000 + 390000}{2}

= 4,00,000

Net credit sales = \frac{2000000}{400000} = 5

∴ Accounts receivable days = \frac{365}{5}

= 73 days

The average collection period of the receivables in terms of days was 73 days.

Monica [59]

Answer:

Contract manufacturing.

Explanation:

A domestic firm may decide to contract for the production of its goods by established foreign manufacturer. Such private-label manufacturing by a foreign company is called contract manufacturing.

Contract manufacturing involves the process of outsourcing a company's manufacturing business, such that a foreign company engages in the production of a private-label product which are then primarily marketed or distributed by a domestic company under its own brand name.

This ultimately implies that, it is a manufacturing process which involves the production of goods by a company under the brand name of another company.

denpristay [2]

Answer:

Thus to maximize profit, Santora Company should manufacture Bread machine only.

The unit of Bread machine can be produced in 2,000 machine hours is 8,000 units

Explanation:

The profit for Toaster Ovens and Bread Machines is $10 and $90 respectively; thus  

six toaster ovens per machine hour will generate profit of $60 = ($10 *6)

four bread machines per machine hour  will generate profit of $360 = ($90 *4)

In the same machine hour the profit from Bread machines are significantly higher then Toaster over. Thus to maximize profit, Santora Company should manufacture Bread machine only.

The unit of Bread machine can be produced in 2,000 machine hours is 8,000 units (= 2,000 * 4)

The profit for 8,000 units of Bread machine is $720,000 = (8,000 * $90)
