Answer:

c. ​incurring a loss per unit of $2.00, but since it can still cover its variable costs, should continue to operate.

Explanation:

Profit and loss analysis is done by a business to see the viability of producing a product, considering the revenue and cost incurred.

The revenue of the company is price of the product less fixed cost and variable cost. That is 10-8-4= -$2.

The company is making a loss of $2 per product sold.

However considering only variable cost revenue is 10-8= $2. That is a $2 profit.

The company should keep producing because the revenue it makes on variable cost will account for the fixed cost (does not change) with increased production.

For example if the company produces 5 units the profit is (10*5)-(8*5)-4= $6

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

WACC for A: 9.05%

WACC for B: 9.50%

WACC for C: 12.20%

WACC for D: 12.65%

Explanation:

WACC for a division will be equal: Percentage of Debt in capital employed by the Division x Cost of Debt + Percentage of Equity in capital employed by the Division x Cost of equity = 50% x 6% + 50% x ( Risk free rate + Beta of each Division x Risk premium) = 3% + 50% x ( 4% + beta of each Division x Risk premium)

Risk premium for the 4 Divisions is equal to (Cost of equity for the whole firm - Risk free rate) / beta = 9%

Thus WACC for a division will be equal:  3% + 50% x ( 4% + beta of each Division x 9%).

Substitute beta of each Division from A to D provided in the question, we have: WACC for A: 9.05%; WACC for B: 9.5%; WACC for C: 12.2%; WACC for D: 12.65%.

ryzh [129]

Answer:

If the offer is rejected by the Dall then the offer is no more in place. The particular reason is that Martin is not required to tell Dall that the offer is no more in place. Suppose Martin is wishing to close his offer and till now Dall has not declined the offer. So Martin will have to communicate Dall that the offer is been closed. If Dall has communicated Martin that he has rejected the offer, then this means the offer essence has vanished. Hence Martin has no liability towards Dall, if Dall sues him.
