Taxes – Tax is a fiscal policy tool used by the government to generate revenue, encourage or discourage the consumption of certain products or affect aggregate demand through income redistribution.

Answer:
The cost of equity using the DCF method: 4.39%.
The cost of equity using the SML method: 15.01%.
Explanation:
a. The cost of equity using the DCF method:
We have: Current stock price = Next year dividend payment / ( Cost of equity - Growth rate) <=> Cost of equity = Next year dividend payment/Current stock price + Growth rate = 0.3 x 1.04/80 + 4% = 4.39%.
b. The cost of equity using the SML method:
Cost of equity = Risk free rate + beta x ( Market return - risk free rate); in which Risk free rate is rate on T-bill.
=> Cost of equity = 6.3% + 1.3 x ( 13% -6.3%) = 15.01%.
Answer:
Margin of safety= $12,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Moe's Pizza Shop sells a large pizza for $12.00. Unit variable expenses total $8.00. The breakeven sales in units are 7,000 and budgeted sales in units are 8,000
To calculate the margin of safety in dollars, we need to use the following formula:
Margin of safety= (current sales level - break-even point)
Margin of safety= (8,000*12) - (7,000*12)= $12,000
