Answer: 9.7%

Explanation:

Given Data

Rf = Risk free return = 6%,

Rpm = Risk premium = 4%,

Beta = 0.9

Wd = Debt = 20%

rd = cost of debt = 8%

We = equity = 80%

Re = Rf + Beta (Rpm)

= 0.06 +0.9 (0.04)

= 0.096 * 100

= 9.6%

Unlevered Equity Cost ;

ReU= Wd × rd + We × re

= 0.20 × 8% + 0.80 × 9.6%

= 9.28%

Levered Equity Cost:

New Debt = 60%,

New Equity = 40%,

New rd = 9%

ReL = ReU + (ReU - rd) (D ÷ E)

= 9.28% + (9.28% - 9%) (0.60 ÷ 0.40)

= 0.097 * 100

= 9.7%

Charisma, Inc., has debt outstanding with a face value of $6 million. The value of the firm if it were entirely financed by equi
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

$660,000

Explanation:

According to M & M proportion I with taxes, the value of the levered firm is:

V (Firm) = V (Equity) + V (Debt)

             = $28,400,000 + 0.25(6,000,000)

             = $28,400,000 + $1,500,000

             = $29,900,000

Total market value of the firm:

= Market value of the debt + Market value of equity

= $6,000,000 + stock outstanding × Selling price per share

= $6,000,000 + 415,000 × $56 per share

= $29,240,000

With non-marketed claims, such as bankruptcy costs, we would expect the two values to be the same.

The differences are the non-marketed claims:

Expected bankruptcy costs = $29,900,000 - $29,240,000

                                              = $660,000

Musashi lives in Philadelphia and runs a business that sells pianos. In an average year, he receives $704,000 from selling piano
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

Explicit costs are actual costs which Yakov must make while implicit costs are opposite of explicit costs, Implicit costs are opportunity costs.

Grouping them, we have the following;

•The wages and utility bills that Yakov pays. => Explicit costs

•The salary Yakov could earn if he worked as a paralegal.=>Implicit Costs

•The wholesale cost for the pianos that Yakov pays the manufacturer. => Explicit costs

•The rental income Yakov could receive if he chose to rent out his showroom =>Implicit Costs

2) Yakov's accounting and economic profit of his piano business.

Profit($)

Acct Profit.......... Economic Profit

$14,000. .............. -$9,000 (loss)

•Yakov's accounting profit will be his revenue - explicit costs.

Therefore accounting profit=

$704,000 - ($404,000 - $286,000) = $14,000

• Yakov's economic profit will be (accounting profit - (rent + forgone salary)

Therefore, accounting profit =

$14,000 - ($3,000+$20,000) = -$9,000

Baka Corporation applies manufacturing overhead on the basis of direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the most recent year, th
rjkz [21]

Answer:

Allocated MOH= $188,627

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated overhead= $241,800

Estimated direct labor hour= 6,800

Actual direct labor-hours were 5,300.

First, we need to calculate the estimated overhead rate:

To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 241,800/6,800= $35.59 per direct labor hour.

Now, based on actual direct labor hours, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 35.59*5,300= $188,627
