Answer:

The correct answer to the following question is option E) 9.06% .

Explanation:

Here the cost of equity given is  - 11.8%

Pre tax cost of debt- 6.9%

Tax rate- 35%

So the after tax cost of debt - 6.9% x 65%

= 4.485%

The debt to equity ratio - .6

So the weight of debt - .6 / ( 1 + .06 )

= .375

Weight of equity - 1 / ( 1 + .06 )

= .625

Weighted average cost of capital =

Debts cost x weight of debt + Equity cost x weight of equity

= 4.485 x .375 + 11.8 x .625

= 1.681875 + 7.735

= 9.06%

Tema [17]

Answer:

break even point in units:

  • a = 11,700
  • b = 46,800
  • c = 35,100

Explanation:

beer mugs          contribution margin         expected sales

a                                $5                                   25,000

b                                $4                                  100,000

c                                $3                                   50,000

fixed costs = $351,000

if the sales proportion remains the same, we can assume a bundle of products = 1a + 4b + 3c (1 for every 25,000 units) whose contribution margin = $5 + $16 + $9 = $30

break even point = fixed costs / bundle's contribution margin = $351,000 / $30 = 11,700 bundles

break even point in units:

a = 11,700

b = 11,700 x 4 = 46,800

c = 11,700 x 3 = 35,100

Atlanta Company Spokane Company
liraira [26]

Answer:

C) Atlanta Company

Explanation:

Let's bear in mind that equity is an advantage that allows your company to buy and sell more.

So more equity means more ability to buy and sell and less the possibility of going bankrupt.

Liability on the other hand also gives advantage in trade r company , so more liability shows strongness of the company.

Now let's compare the equity and liability of the both companies

Atlanta Company

Total liabilities $ 429,000

Total equity 572,000

Spokane Company

Total liabilities $ 549,000

Total equity 1,830,000

The equity ratio is about 1:3

While liability is about 1:1.2

So Atlanta company has more riskier structure
