Answer:
$1,320.19
Explanation:
Loan amount = $225,000
Rate = 5.80%
Years = 30
PMT = ?
Initial payment = PMT(Rate/12, Years*12, -225,000)
Initial payment = PMT(5.80%/12, 360, -225,000)
Initial payment = 1320.185230439806
Initial payment = $1,320.19
Therefore, the initial payment on the loan is $1,320.19
Answer:
Answer:
Dividend (D) = 4% x $100 = $4
Current market price (Po) = $18
Flotation cost (FC) = $1.50
Tax rate (T) = 40% = 0.40
Kp = <u> D
</u>
Po-FC
Kp = <u> $4
</u>
$18-$1.50
Kp = <u>$4
</u>
$16.5
Kp = 0.24 = 24%
Explanation:
Cost of preferred stock equals dividend divided by the difference between current market price and flotation cost. Cost of preferred stock is not tax deductible.
Answer: 9.48%
Explanation:
Given Data
Debts ;
$7 billion
$2 billion
$13 billion
Beta of Fords stock = Beta = 1.50
Market risk premium = Rp = 8.0%
Risk free rate of interest = Rf = 4.0%
Equity rate = 1.7
Market risk rate = 0.8
Risk free rate = 0.03
Therefore;
Cost of Equity ( Re ) = Risk free rate + equity rate × market risk premium
= 0.03 + (1.7 × 0.8)
= 0.166
Preferred Stock Cost ( PSC)= Dividend ÷ stock price
= 4 ÷ 30
= 0.1333
Total debt = 13 + 6 + 2 = 21 billion
D% = 13 billion ÷ 21 billion
= 0.619
E% = 6 billion ÷ 21 billion
= 0.286
P% = 2 billion ÷ 21 billion
= 0.095
RD = debt capital at 8% maturity rate
Tc= 30%
Rwac =(w/ preferred stock)
= Re × E% + PSC × P% + Rd ( 1- Tc) D%
Rwac = (0.166)(0.286) + (0.1333)(0.095) + (0.08)(1- 0.3)*(0.619)
= 0.094803 * 100
= 9.48%
At 30% tax rate Ford weighted average cost is 9.48%
Answer:
d. any cost that does not change when the firm changes its output.
Explanation:
Fixed costs are the expenses that remain constant throughout a financial period. They are not dependent on the output level for the period. Fixed costs are budgeted at the beginning of the season and will not change as long as production does not go beyond the optimal level. Examples of fixed costs are depreciation, rents, administrative salaries, and insurance.
Variable costs contrasts fixed costs. Whereas fixed costs remain constant, variable cost change depending on the level of production. Adding fixed costs to variable costs results in the total costs for a business. The average total cost is the total cost divided by the total output.
