Business
1 answer:
Rashid [163]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Option A and B

Explanation:

The company desires to estimate the cost of the job so that it can minimize it by emphasizing control. This is one of the major reasons why the companies estimate cost of the job, product or service. So option A is correct.

Option B is also correct because the companies have to form contracts with its customers and for that reason predetermined overhead rates helps a lot estimating the price of the product which the company and customer can agree upon.

Option C is incorrect because predetermined costs are estimates and estimates are not always accurate.

Option D is false because daily recording of overheads requires predetermined overhead rates which is adjusted at the month end or quarter end or year end. So its not useless at all.

How much time will be needed for 35,000 to grow to 44,622.09 if deposited at 7% compounded quarterly
Vlad [161]

Answer:

It will take 14 quarters (3.5 years) to reach $44,622.09 from $35,000 at an interest rate of 7% compounded quarterly.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

PV= 35,000

FV= 44,622.09

i= 0.07/4= 0.0175

We need to calculate the number of quarters required to reach the objective. We will use the following formula:

n= ln(FV/PV) / ln(1+i)

n= ln(44,622.09/35,000) / ln(1.0175)

n= 14

It will take 14 quarters (3.5 years) to reach $44,622.09 from $35,000 at an interest rate of 7% compounded quarterly.

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

7.85%

Explanation:

Face value of bond =$2000

Price of current bond= face value× 106.5% = $2130

Term= 25 years×2= 50 period

Coupon rate= 7%×1/2= 3.5%

Coupon amount= coupon rate×face value = $2000×3.5/100

         =$70 for a period

YTM of bond= [coupon amount+ (maturity value-current price)/Term]/0.6×current price+0.4×maturity value]

YTM of bond= 6.487% per annum

Total market value of bond= 8,400bonds× $2130= $17,892,000

Market value of common stock= 275,000shares × 62.50= $18012500

Weight of common stock= 0.490009385

Weight of preferred stock= 0.023259294

WACC= Wd* Kd + Wc*Kc + Wp*Kp

= 0.486731321× 4.86525% +

0.490009385× 10.9624275+

0.023259294× 4.7368421%

=7.849%

= 7.85%(rounded)

Thus, WACC is 7.85%
