Answer:

8.20%

Explanation:

Debt equity ratio = 0.95

or

Debt = 0.95 × equity

Cost of equity, ke = 11% or 0.11

Pretax cost of debt, kd = 7% or 0.07

Tax rate = 24% or 0.24

Therefore;

WACC = {Weight of equity × ke } + {Weight of debt × kd × (1-Tax rate)}

It is to be noted that ;

Weight of equity = Equity ÷ (Debt + Equity)

= Equity ÷ ( 0.95×Equity + Equity)

=1 ÷ 1.95

=0.513

Also,

Weight of debt = Debt ÷ ( Debt + Equity)

=0.95 × Equity ÷ ( 0.95 × Equity + Equity)

= 0.95 ÷ 1.95

=0.487

Hence,

WACC = {0.513 × 0.11} + {0.487 × 0.07 × (1-0.24)}

= {0.05643} + {0.03409 × 0.76}

= 0.0823384

or

0.0823384 × 100%

=8.23384

=8.20%

Answer:

Find attached statement and the question which question number 10.

The correct option is C,$90

Explanation:

In the statement you would notice that the balance transfer from another credit card was $785,upon which balance transfer levy of  $23.55 was  charged(Section 7)

Intuitively, the percentage of balance transfer charge is $23.55 divided by the amount of balance transfer i.e $785

balance transfer charge(%)=$23.55/$785=3%

However, if the balance transfer were $3000,the charge is 3% of $3000 i.e $90 ($3000*3%).

The correct option then is C,$90

A cash-strapped young professional offers to buy your car with four, equal annual payments of $3,000, beginning 2 years from tod
kiruha [24]

Answer:

This means that receiving 9000 today is better for us as we will have more at the end of 6 years.

Explanation:

We need to first calculate what is the future value of payments in both scenarios. If we receive $9,000 today and invest it at 10% for 6 years we will have 9000*1.10^6=15,944

If we start reviving cash in 4 annual payments 2 years from now of $3000 we will have to find the future value of each individual payment and add them up.

First payment Future value = 3000*1.10^4=4392 (Money can be invested for 4 years at 10%)

Second payment future value = 3000*1.10^3=3993 (Money can be invested for 3 years at 10%)

Third payment future value = 3000*1.10^2=3630 (Money can be invested for 4 years at 10%)

Fourth payment future value = 3000*1.1=3300

Add them all up = 15315

This means that receiving 9000 today is better for us as we will have more at the end of 6 years.

Explanation:

Breakfast Cereal Maker

Weighted-Average Inventory Method

Total Equivalent Units

                                     Units               Conversion     Equivalent Units

Particulars                                                   %

Units completed         620,000               100 %             620,000

<u>Add Ending WIP          180,000                70 %               126,000</u>

<u>Total Equivalent Units                                                      746,000</u>

<u />

<em>The total Equivalent units are obtained by adding the percent of the units in the ending work in process inventory to the units completed and transferred out. This is the average weighted method of finding the equivalent units.</em>

<em>As only conversion is required we found out the conversion units only.</em>
