Bonds = 75,000*1000 = 75 Million

Preferred stock = 750,000*64 = 48 Million

Common stock = 2.5 Million *44 =110 Million

Total capital = 75+48+110 = 233 Million

Weight of debt (Wd) = 75/233 = 0.3219

Weight of preferred stock (Wp)= 78/233 = 0.206

Weight of equity (We) 1-0.3219-0.206 = 0.4721

Cost of debt after tax (Rd)= 7.5%*(1-0.34) = 4.95%

Cost of preferred stock (Rp)=6/64 = 9.375%

Cost of equity(Re) = rf + beta*(rm-rf) = 2.3+1.21*(11.2-2.3) = 13.069%

WACC = Wd *Rd + Wp*Rp + We*Re

WACC = 0.3219*4.95 + 0.206*9.375 + 0.4721*13.069% = 9.69%

The law of variability says that​ "the greater the random variability either demanded of the process or inherent in the process
Aneli [31]

Answer:

C. the less productive the process​ is.

Explanation:

Variability refers to the property when the given substance are highly probable to change and that the results accordingly change.

In that condition there is no drawn pattern for such change, as it might or might not change according to the expected scale and level.

In this, if there is high variability, then the results can be that the resulting process will be least productive, as there are so many uncontrollable changes.

Accordingly, since no proper management of the related process is possible, the results will not be productive.

Cromley Corporation reports annual sales of $1,800,000. Its accounts receivable throughout the year averaged $150,000. a. Comput
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

a. accounts receivable turnover rate is 12 times

b. Average days sales outstanding is 30 days

Explanation:

Computation of accounts receivable turnover rate

The accounts receivable turnover rate is determined by dividing the credit sales with the average receivables.

Credit Sales                     = $ 1,800,000

Average Receivables      = $    150,000

Receivables Turnover rate = $ 1,800,000/ $ 150,000 = 12 times

Computation of Average Days outstanding

Average days outstanding is computed by dividing the annual credit sales by 365 and using that as a divisor with the average receivables

Annual Credit Sales                     = $ 1,800,000

No of days                                                 365

Average daily credit sales  = $ 1,800.000/365 = $ 4,931.50

No of days sales = Average receivables/ Average daily credit sales

= $ 150,000/ $ 4,931.5 = 30.4 days rounded to 30 days

Equipment purchased at the beginning of the fiscal year for $150,000 is expected to have a useful life of 5 years, or 15,000 ope
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

(a). Depreciation for 1st year= $24,000

Depreciation for 2nd year= $24,000

(b). 1st Year Depreciation = $20,000

for 2nd year depreciation = $26,000

(c) 1st year Depreciation= $60,000

2nd year Depreciation = $36,000

Explanation:

a).

Annual Depreciation of Equipment = (Cost of Equipment - Residual Value) ÷ Useful Life of Equipment

= ($150,000 - $30,000) ÷ 5

= $24,000

Rate of Straight Line Depreciation = Annual Depreciation of Equipment ÷ (Cost of Equipment - Residual Value) × 100

= 24,000 ÷ ( $150,000 - 30,000) × 100

= $24,000 ÷ $120,000 × 100 = 20%

Depreciation for 1st year= $24,000

Depreciation for 2nd year= $24,000

b). Unit Of Production For 1st Year Depreciation= (Cost Of Equipment -Residual Value) × Annual Production Units ÷ Total Operating Hours

= ($150,000 - $30,000) × 2,500 ÷ 15,000 = $20,000

Unit of Production for 2nd year depreciation = ( $150,000 - $30,000) × 32,50 ÷ 15,000

= $26,000

c). Declining Balance Depreciation Rate = Straight Line Depreciation Rate × 2

= 20% × 2 = 40%   (Because Declining Balance at Twice the Straight Line Rate)

1st year Depreciation= $150,000 × 40÷100 = $60,000

2nd year Depreciation = ($150,000 - $60,000) × 40÷100 =$36,000

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The revenue recognition principle

Explanation:

The revenue recognition principle states that revenue should be recorded when services have been performed or products have been delivered to customers and  not when cash is received for the service rendered

For example, if a supplier delivers 10,000 worth of goods to consumers in November and is paid for the goods in December. Revenue should be recognised in November and not December.
