Answer:

First we need to compute levered cost of equity

Ro = 15.40%

D/E ratio = 0.40/(1-0.40) = 0.6667

Rd=7.2%

We have following formula for levered cost of equity using MM model proposition II:

Without taxes

Re = Ro + (Ro – Rd) x (1-t) x D/E

     = 0.1380 + (0.1380-0.0720)x (1-0.0)x0.6667

     = 0.1380 + 0.0440

     = 18.20%

Therefore, new cost of equity would be 18.20%.

With taxes

Re = Ro + (Ro – Rd) x (1-t) x D/E

     = 0.1380 + (0.1380-0.0720)x (1-0.34)x0.6667

     = 0.1380 + 0.0290

     = 16.70%

Therefore, new cost of equity would be 16.70%.

Yanka [14]

Answer: Bait and switch

Explanation:

The type of fraud here is referred to as the bait and switch fraud. This fraud occurs when customers are told about the low prices and quality of a product but aren't available when customers want to purchase such products and they're then given products that are costlier or products that are of lesser quality.

This can be seen in the question when the sales associate advertised the video game system for a reduced price which wasn't available when customers wanted to buy but were offered a game that was costlier.

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer: The income statement should reflect $15,000.

Explanation: The reason is because accounting procedures are always guided by certain principles or concepts. One of such concepts is the Realization Concept. This simply states that income is considered to have been earned when the goods/services have been dispatched /rendered to the client and the client has incurred liability for such (or has accepted his/her indebtedness). The Accrual Concept is also applicable in the above instance because this concept/principle states that revenues and expenses are recognized as soon as they are earned and incurred and not when money is expended or received. So basically, XYZ Law firm has provided services for two clients. One of them has paid while the other will pay sometime later. Both of them are already recognized as revenue and the current income statement will reflect revenue transactions to the tune of $15,000.
