For a typical firm, which of the following sequences is CORRECT? All rates are after taxes, and assume that the firm operates at
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

a. re > rs > WACC > rd.

Explanation:

Re represents cost of equity

Rs represents cost of retained earnings

WACC represents Weighted average cost of capital

Rd represents cost of debt

Basically the cost of equity is highest as there is no assured return on such equity investment.

Cost of retained earnings is less than cost of equity because amount invested is already in hands of company, although belonging to equity holders, thus is higher than total weighted cost of capital.

WACC is the cost after providing weights to every source of capital it is lower then equity, higher than debt because of average.

Cost of debt is lowest because of tax benefit from it.

Discount A/c Dr.            $99,000

To,  Interest Revenue         895,000

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

Face value = $19.9 million

Issued bond rate = 8% annually or 4% semi annual

So, Cash = $19,900,000 × 4%

= $796,000

Issued bonds value = $17.9 million

Market yield = 10% annual or 5% semi annual

So, Interest revenue = $17,900,000 × 5%

= $895,000

So, Journal entries are as follows,

Jun.30,2021 Cash A/c Dr.                   $796,000

                       Discount A/c Dr.            $99,000

A company has $10,710 available per month for advertising. Newspaper ads cost $180 each and can't run more than 22 times per mon
True [87]

Answer:

22 radio advertisements will be used.

Explanation:

<u>Note</u>: A similar complete question is as follow as the question provided is incomplete <em>"A company has $11,970 available per month for advertising. Newspaper ads cost $110 each and can't run more than 25 times per month. Radio ads cost $410 each and can't run more than 32 times per month at this price. Each newspaper ad reaches 5950 potential customers, and each radio ad reaches 7100 potential customers. The company wants to maximize the number of ad exposures to potential customers. Use n n for number of Newspaper advertisements and r r for number of Radio advertisements . Maximize P"</em>

Number of potential customers that can be reached due to each dollar spent in newspaper advertising =  5950 / 110 = 54.09

Number of potential customers that can be reached due to each dollar spent in Radio advertisements = 7100 / 410 = 17.32.

As the number of potential customers reached by each dollar spent is more from the newspaper advertising, we will use all the newspaper advertising opportunities before going for the radio advertisements. So, we will choose to have 25 newspaper advertisements in the month.

The cost of 25 newspaper advertisements = 25*110  = $2750.

Amount left = $11970 - $2750 = $9220.

Number of radio advertisements possible in this budget = 9220 / 410 = 22.48

Hence, 22 radio advertisements will be used.
