Your friend Burrell says that the government should hire fewer social workers in order to reduce the cost of federal assistance

BARSIC [14]

Answer: b) peoples' responses to financial incentives.

Explanation:

Burrell would be wrong because the most leakage in federal assistance programs comes from the way people respond to financial incentives.

Some people who have received this assistance from the Federal government have decided that it would be better to keep receiving this assistance instead of working to actually get paid.

This has led to more people seeking assistance thereby increasing the number of people needing assistance and invariably increasing the cost of these federal assistance programs.

Western Electric has 32,500 shares of common stock outstanding at a price per share of $80 and a rate of return of 12.95 percent

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

c. 11.10%

Explanation:

Options are <em>"a. 10.29% b. 10.51% c. 11.10% d. 10.72% e. 11.49%"</em>

Market Value of Equity = $80 * 32,500

Market Value of Equity = $2,600,000

Market Value of Preferred Stock = $95.50 * 7350

Market Value of Preferred Stock = $701,925

Market Value of Debt = $407,000 * 1.115

Market Value of Debt = $453,805

Total Market Value = Market Value of Equity + Market Value of Preferred Stock + Market Value of Debt

Total Market Value = $2,600,000 + $701,925 + $453,805

Total Market Value = $3,755,730

kP = Annual Dividend / Current Market Price

kP = $7.90 / $95.50

kP = 0.082723

kP = 8.27%

WACC = [wD * kD * (1 - t)] + [wP * kP] + [wE * kE]

WACC = [(453,805/3,755,730) * 8.11% * (1 - 0.40)] + [(701,925/3,755,730) * 8.27%] + [(2,600,000/3,755,730) * 12.95%]

WACC = 0.59% + 1.55% + 8.96%

WACC = 11.10%
