Answer:

13%

Explanation:

the new cost of equity = old cost of equity + [(debt / equity) x (old cost of equity - cost of debt)]

the new cost of equity = 12%+ [(20 / 80) x (12% - 8%)] = 12% + 1% = 13%

Since we are in the MM world, taxes do not exist, therefore they are not included in the equation.

nadezda [96]

A capital loss refers to a scenario where the price of a security falls below the price at which it was purchased. This is what happened to the Alpha Industries stock above as the price dropped from $39 to $37 which led to a capital loss of $2.

The dividends paid seem to outweigh the capital loss but we cannot be certain of this unless we know the tax rate being applied to the dividends and because these are usually high, the after tax dividends might have been lower the capital loss of $2.

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

Residual income is $ 123,800.00  

Explanation:

The formula for residual income is given below:

Residual Income = operating income - (Required Return × Average Operating Assets)

The operating income=Sales-costs of goods sold-operating expenses

sales is $4,665,000

costs of good sold is $2,690,000

operating expenses of $1,512,000

operating income=$4,665,000-$2,690,000-$1,512,000

operating income=$463,000

residual income:

required return is 8%

average operating assets is $4,240,000

residual income=$463,000-($4,240,000*8%)

                           =$463,000-$339,200

                           =$123,800.00
