Answer:

total market value is $812.05  million

WACC project discount rate is 8.77%

Explanation:

The firm's market value is the sum of the market values of equity,debt and preferred stock.

Equity=10.1*$49=$494.9 million

debt=235,000*$1000*116%=$272.6 million

preferred stock=450,000*$99=$44.55 million

Total market value                      $812.05  million

WACC=Ke*E/V+Kd*D/V*(1-t)+Kp*P/V

Ke is the cost of equity=4%+1.55(8.9%-4%)=11.60%

Kd= rate(30,$1000*8.9%/2,-$1000*116%,1000)=3.57% semiannually

kd=3.57%*2=7.14%

Kp=5%

WACC=(11.50%*494.9/812.05)+(7.14%*272.6/812.05*(1-0.38)+(5%*44.55/812.05)=8.77%

Oliga [24]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Generally, net income will be the same under absorption costing and variable costing. However, producing fewer units than units sold will decrease the net income under absorption costing. As whatever the variable cost is under the absorption method, fixed manufacturing overhead remains the same that decreases the gross profit and net income. Under the variable costing, the fixed overhead will be calculated as per the units produced. Therefore, the net income will decrease proportionately.
