Answer:

9.04%

Explanation:

The computation of firm's WACC is shown below:-

MV of equity = Price of equity × Number of shares outstanding

= $68 × 12,200

= $829,600

MV of Bond = Par value × bonds outstanding × Percentage of par

= $1,000 × 370 × 0.951

= $351,870

MV of firm = MV of Equity + MV of Bond

= $829,600 + $351,870

= $1,181,470

After tax cost of debt = Cost of debt × (1 - Tax rate)

After tax cost of debt = 5.99 × (1 - 0.39)

= 3.6539

Weight of equity = MV of Equity ÷ MV of firm

= $829,600 ÷ $1,181,470

=0.7022

Weight of debt = MV of Bond ÷ MV of firm

= $351,870 ÷ $1,181,470

= 0.2978

WACC = After tax cost of debt × Weight of debt + Cost of equity × Weight of equity

= 3.65 × 0.2978 + 11.33% × 0.7022

= 9.04%

Suppose an economy’s national accounts are GNP = 100, C = 70, I = 40, G = 20 and EX = 20 where GNP is gross national product, C
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Imports is 50.

Current account balance is -30.

Total savings is 30.

After tax reduction total savings is 10.

Explanation:

GNP is given as  100.

The consumption expenditure is 70.

The investment expenditure is 40.

The government spending is 20.

The exports are given as 20.

GNP = C + I + G + EX - IM

100 = 70 + 40 + 20 + 20 - IM

100 = 150 - IM

IM = 50

The current account balance is the difference between exports and imports.

Current account balance

= EX - IM

= 20 - 50

= -30

Total savings in the economy is the difference between disposable income and consumption.

Total savings

= Y - C

= 100 - 70

= 30

In case government reduces taxes, the private saving will increase while the public saving will decrease.

Private saving

= Y - T - C

= 100 - 10 - 70

=20

Public saving

= T - G

= 10-20

= -10

Total saving

= Private saving + Public saving

= 20 + (-10)

= 20 - 10

= 10
