On January 1, 2020, NoDice Corporation issues $540,000, 5-year, 12% bonds for $529,000. Interest is paid semiannually on January

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

Dr Interest expense $33,500

Cr Discount on bonds payable $1,100

Cr Cash $32,400

Explanation:

Discount on bonds payable=$540,000-$529,000=$11,000

Amortization of discount=discount on bonds issue/period of the bond

period to maturity of the bond is 5 years *2 =10 since the bond pays interest semi-annually

Amortization =$11,000/10=$1,100

Semi-annual interest=$540,000*12%/2=$32,400

the bond semi-annual interest expense=discount amortization+interest payment

the bond semi-annual interest expense=$32,400+$1,100=$33,500

Bill Dukes has $100,000 invested in a 2-stock portfolio. $32,500 is invested in Stock X and the remainder is invested in Stock Y

pshichka [43]

Answer:

0.98

Explanation:

Computation for Bill Duke portfolio's beta

First step is to find the Investment in Y which is:

Investment in Y=100,000-35,000

=$65,000

Second step is to calculate for the Portfolio beta using this formula

Portfolio beta=Respective beta*Respective Investment weight

Portfolio beta =(35,000/100,000*1.5)+(65,000/100,000*0.7)

Portfolio beta=(0.35*1.5) +(0.65*0.7)

Portfolio beta =0.525 +0.455

Portfolio beta=0.98

Therefore the Portfolio Beta will be 0.98

Identify whether each of the following statements best illustrates the concept of consumer surplus, producer surplus, or neither

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

producer surplus

consumer surplus

neither

Explanation:

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the good.

Consumer surplus = willingness to pay – price of the good

The highest amount i was willing to buy the watch is $71 but the price was $65. this illustrates a consumer surplus

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the seller is willing to sell the product

Producer surplus = price – least price the seller is willing to accept

The least amount the textbook seller was willing to sell was $48 while the price the textbook was sold was $54. thus, a illustrates a producer surplus.

for statement c, a transaction did not take place, so, it is neither a producer or consumer surplus

The market value of Fords' equity, preferred stock and debt are $ 6 billion, $ 2 billion, and $ 12 billion, respectively. Fo

aniked [119]

Answer:

10.12 %

Explanation:

Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is the cost of permanent sources of capital pooled together. It shows the risk of the business and is used to evaluate projects.

WACC = Cost of equity x Weight of Equity + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt + Cost of Preference Stock x Weight of Preference Stock

Remember to use the After tax cost of debt :

After tax cost of debt = Interest x (1 - tax rate)

= 10% x ( 1 - 0.40)

= 6.00 %

Cost of equity :

Cost of equity = Return from Risk free security + Beta x Risk Premium

= 4.00 % + 1.8 x 8.00%

= 18.40 %

Cost of Preference Stock :

Cost of Preference Stock = Dividend / Market return x 100

= $2.50 / $ 25 x 100

= 10%

therefore,

WACC = 18.40 % x 30 % + 6.00 % x 60 % + 10.00% x 10%

= 10.12 %

thus,

Ford's weighted average cost of capital is 10.12 %
