Answer:

opportunity cost = 30,000

Explanation:

The opportunity cost is the return in the alternative investment:

250,000 x 12% = 30,000 opportunity cost

The economic profit would be the  lease less the opportunity cost

35,000 - 30,000 = 5,000 economic profit

<u>Note: If there was two or more alternatives, </u>we should pick the investment with the highest yield.

Using the data set below, what would be the forecast for period 5 using the exponential smoothing method? Assume the forecast fo
elena55 [62]

Answer:

The answer is C: 14300

Note: The actual answer is 14296, <em>and </em>the closest to that was option C.

Explanation:

Formula to calculate forecast using Exponential smoothing:

  •    F_{t} = F_{t-1} + \alpha ( A_{t-1} - F_{t-1} )

Where,

  • F_{t} = New Forecast
  • F_{t-1} = Previous period's forecast.
  • \alpha = Smoothing Constant
  • A_{t-1} = Previous period's Actual Demand.
  1. Calculating the forecast for period 5:

Data:

  • F_{5} = ?
  • F_{t-1} = 14000
  • \alpha = 0.4
  • A_{t-1} = 14750

Putting <em>values in the formula:</em>

F_{5} = 14000 + 0.4(14750-14000)

F_{5} = 14000 + 0.4 (740)

F_{5} = 14000 + 296

F_{5} = 14296

mash [69]

   $34.75 -0.039 = D1/0.104

                $34.711 = D1/0.104

                        D1  = 34.711 x 0.104

                        D1 = $3.61

Here I Sit Sofas has 7,100 shares of common stock outstanding at a price of $94 per share. There are 600 bonds that mature in 30
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Weight of debt = 57.83 %

Explanation:

given data

number of shares =  7,100

price = $94 per share

number of bonds = 600

mature time = 30 year s

coupon rate = 6.8 percent

bonds par value = $2,000

sell = 108.5 percent

stock outstanding = 6,000 shares

stock outstanding price = $47 per share

to find out

capital structure weight of the debt

solution

first we get here Equity market value that is express as

Equity market value = number of shares × price per share

Equity market value = 7100 × $94

Equity market value = $667,400

and  

current debt value will be here as

current debt value = number of bonds × price per bond

current debt value = 600 × (1.085 × 2000)

current debt value = $1,302,000

and now Preferred stock value will be

Preferred stock value = stock outstanding × stock outstanding price

Preferred stock value = 6,000  × $47

Preferred stock value = $282000

and total capital will be as  

Total capital = Equity market value + current debt value + preferred stock value ..................1

put here value

Total capital =  $667,400 +  $1,302,000 + $282000

total capital = $2251400

so here Weight of debt will be

Weight of debt = debt value ÷ total capital ..............2

Weight of debt = \frac{1,302,000}{2251400}

Weight of debt = 0.578306

Weight of debt = 57.83 %

Rudik [331]

Answer:

Gross profit= 131,500

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Last quarter, RP Enterprises earned $220,000 in sales revenue and had $90,000 cost of goods sold (at standard). RP also experienced these variances: Materials price: $2,400 F Materials quantity: $1,400 U Labor price: $2,000 U Labor quantity: $1,000 F Overhead: $1,500 F

To calculate the cost of goods sold, we use actaul costs and quantity of direct labor and direct materials. Therefore, the only estimated cost is overhead.

Gross profit= 220,000 - 90,000 + 1,500= 131,500
