A government worker surveys a number of households and comes up with the following information: there were a total of 90 people

viktelen [127]

Answer:

27%

Explanation:

Number of Persons in the Household = 90

Neither Employed Nor Unemployed

Children Under 16 =10
Disabled = 5
Retired =10
Stay at Home Parents = 5
Full Time Students over the age of 16= 5

Total =35

Unemployed

10 people had no job but were looking for jobs
5 people who wanted a job but were not looking for a job.
Total =15

Employed

35 people had full-time jobs
5 had part-time jobs

Total =35+5=40

Total Labour Force = Unemployed +Employed = 40+15 =55

Unemployment Rate = (Unemployed People / Total Labor) x 100

=15/55 X 100

=27%

According to the information in the survey, the unemployment rate is: 27%

Feldspar Inc. is considering the capital structure for a new division. Management has been given the following cost information:

34kurt

Answer:

Option 4

Explanation:

In this question ,we have to compute the WACC which is shown below:

= Weightage of debt × cost of debt × ( 1- tax rate) + (Weightage of common stock) × (cost of common stock)

For Option 1, it would be

= (0.3 × 10%) × ( 1 - 40%) + (0.7 × 12.5%)

= 1.8% + 8.75%

= 10.55%

For Option 2, it would be

= (0.4 × 10.5%) × ( 1 - 40%) + (0.6 × 13%)

= 2.52% + 7.8%

= 10.32%

For Option 3, it would be

= (0.5 × 11%) × ( 1 - 40%) + (0.5 × 13.5%)

= 3.3% + 6.75%

= 10.05%

For Option 4, it would be

= (0.6 × 11.7%) × ( 1 - 40%) + (0.4 × 14.2%)

= 4.212% + 5.68%

= 9.89%

For Option 5, it would be

= (0.7 × 13%) × ( 1 - 40%) + (0.3 × 15.5%)

= 5.46% + 4.65%

= 10.11%

So based on this, the management should accept option 4 as it derives the best debt asset ratio

The weightage of equity would be come

= 1 - weightage of debt

The cost C and the revenue R for a brokerage firm depend on the number T of transactions executed. (Both C and R are measured in

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

C(T) = $730 + $25T

R(T) = $35T

T = 193 transactions

Explanation:

Given that:

C = cost ; R = revenue ; T = number of transactions

Amount paid per transaction = $25

Cost keeping office open = $730

Amount collected on each transaction = $35

(a) Find a formula that gives C as a function of T.

C(T) = Cost of keeping office open + (cost per transaction × number of transactions)

C(T) = $730 + $25T

(b) Find a formula that gives R as a function of T.

R(T) = (Amount collected per transaction * number of transactions)

R(T) = $35T

(c) Find the number of daily transactions that are needed to make the revenue $1200 more than the cost.

R = C + 1200

Substitute the value of R and C into the equation:

35T = 730 + 25T + 1200

35T - 25T = 730 + 1200

10T = 1930

T = 1930 / 10

T = 193 transactions
