Should companies be allowed to force stores to obey minimum prices? Yes or no? Explain the reason why you chose yes or no?
Viktor [21]
Yes, stores should be forced to obey minimum prices for a good or a company that is selling a service should as well. They should have to obey by this so that price competition isn't ongoing in the market. Larger producers can often charge a smaller amount for a product because they are producing them in high qualities. By charging less it gives them a competitive advantage over their competition in means of price. Unless the item is on clearance because a company is discontinuing stock of that item, they should have a set minimum as they do a set maximum they are allowed to charge for that item.

Rise Against Corporation is comparing two different capital structures: an all equity plan (Plan A) and a levered plan (Plan B).
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

a. Plan A

b. Plan B

c. $638,400

Explanation:

The formula to compute the earning per share is shown below:

Earning per share = (Net income - interest) ÷ (Number of shares)

a. For Plan A

EPS = ($500,000) ÷ (210,000 shares) = $2.38

For Plan B

EPS = ($500,000 - $182,400) ÷ (150,000 shares) = $2.12

The interest is computed below:

= $2.28 million × 8%

= $182,400)

Plan A has higher EPS

b. For Plan A

EPS = ($750,000) ÷ (210,000 shares) = $3.57

For Plan B

EPS = ($750,000 - $182,400) ÷ (150,000 shares) = $3.78

The interest is computed below:

= $2.28 million × 8%

= $182,400)

Plan B has higher EPS

c. Break-even EBIT

(EBIT) ÷ (Number of shares) = (EBIT - Interest) ÷ Number of shares

(EBIT) ÷ (210,000) = (EBIT - $182,400) ÷$150,000

After solving this,

The EBIT would be $638,400

market value of bond=$400,000*87%=$348,000

Weight of preferred stock=$130,000 /($130,000 +$468,000+$348,000)=0.137420719 =13.7%
