Filer Manufacturing has 8 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current share price is $74, and the book value per sha

re is $5. Filer Manufacturing also has two bond issues outstanding. The first bond issue has a face value $80 million, has a coupon of 9 percent, and sells for 95 percent of par. The second issue has a face value of $60 million, has a coupon of 10 percent, and sells for 108 percent of par. The first issue matures in 24 years, the second in 8 years. The most recent dividend was $4.6 and the dividend growth rate is 5 percent. Assume that the overall cost of debt is the weighted average of that implied by the two outstanding debt issues. Both bonds make semiannual payments. The tax rate is 35 percent.

Answer:

10.45%

Explanation:

First find the cost of equity for the company

RE = [$4.60*(1.05) / $74] + 0.05

RE = 0.1153, or 11.53%

Then find the YTM on both bond issues

P1 = $950 = $45*PVIFA(R%,48) + $1,000*PVIF(R%,48)

R = 4.767%

YTM = 4.767%×2

YTM = 9.53%

P2 = $1,080 = $50*PVIFA(R%,16) + $1,000*PVIF(R%,16)

R = 4.298%

YTM = 4.298%×2

YTM = 8.60%

Total Debt = 0.95($80,000,000) + 1.08*($60,000,000)

Total Debt = $140,800,000

Weight of D1 = 76,000,000 / 140,800,000

Weight of D1 = 0.5398

Weight of D2 = 64,800,000 / 140,800,000

Weight of D2 = 0.4602

Weighted Average after-tax cost of debt

RD = (1 – 0.35)*[(0.5398)*(0.0953) + (0.4602)(0.086)]

RD = .0592, or 5.92%

Market value of equity = 8,000,000*($74) = $592,000,000

Market value of debt = $140,800,000

Total market value of the company = $592,000,000 + 140,800,000 = $732,800,000

Weights of equity and debt

E/V = $592,000,000 / $732,800,000 = 0.8079

D/V = 1−E/V = 0.1921

WACC = 0.8079(0.1153) + 0.1921(0.0592)

WACC = 0.1045, or 10.45%

Most resources are nonrenewable, and wants and needs are limited. This is an example of?
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

scarcity.

Explanation:

Scarcity can be defined as an economical problem that gives the relationship between non-renewable (limited) resources and the limitless wants and needs of consumers.

Basically, it's very important that producers of goods and services make decisions that would help them on how to efficiently allocate scarce or limited resources, in order to meet the unending requirements, wants and needs of consumers.

In Economics, an example of scarcity is that most of the resources used for the manufacturing of finished goods and services are nonrenewable, and as a result, the wants and needs of the end users or consumers are limited. Thus, economists would advise that economies should decide on what to produce, how to produce, when to produce and for whom to produce due to the finite and limited nature of resources i.e the concept of scarcity.

Suppose Keyboard estimates it will use 125 comma 000 comma 000 parts per month and ship products with a total volume of 27 comma
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

a)

Kitting: $0.072 per part and Boxing: $0.764 per cubic feet

b)

Kitting: $12.6 and Boxing: $6.9

Explanation:

Given that Keyboard spends $9,000,000 per month on kitting and $21,000,000 per month on boxing.

Keyboard estimates it will use 125,000,000 parts per month and ship products with a total volume of 27,500,000 cubic feet per month.

a) Since Kitting costs based on the number of parts used in the computer:

The predetermined overhead allocation​ rate for kitting = Money spent on kitting / number of parts used per month = $9000000 / 125000000 = $0.072 per part

Since Boxing costs based on the cubic feet of space the computer required:

The predetermined overhead allocation​ rate for Boxing = Money spent on Boxing / total = $21000000 / 27500000 = $0.764 per cubic feet.

a) each desktop computer requires 175 parts and has a volume of 9 cubic feet

For kitting, Activity cost per desktop = Predetermined overhead allocation rate x  quantity per desktop = $0.072 × 175 = $12.6

For Boxing, Activity cost per desktop = Predetermined overhead allocation rate x  quantity per desktop = $0.764 × 9 = $6.9

Which of the following statements is true about price competition and demand? a. In price competition, the seller uses promotion
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Letter a and b are true.

Explanation:

a. <em><u>In price competition, the seller uses promotion to distinguish its product from competing brands. </u></em>

- This statement is true because in a price competition, companies' main focus is on matching or exceeding the price charged by competitors, concentrating efforts to become the lowest cost seller among all competitors.

b.<em><u> The demand curve indicates an inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded.</u></em>

- This statement is true because it represents the law of demand, that is, the price and demand curve behaves in the opposite way, because as price increases the quantity demanded decreases and as price decreases the quantity demanded increases.
