Answer:
a) 13.18%
b) 9.06%
c-1) 14.55%
c.2) 11.805%
c.3) 9.06%
Explanation:
debt = 60%, cost of debt = 5.4% x 0.75 = 4.05%
equity = 40%, Re = ?
WACC = 7.7%
7.7% = (40% x Re) + (60% x 4.05%)
7.7% = (40% x Re) + 2.43%
(40% x Re) = 5.27%
Re = 5.27% / 40% = 13.175 = 13.18%
13.18% = ReU + (ReU - 0.054) x 1.5 x (1 - 25%)
13.18% = ReU + (ReU - 0.054) x 1.125
0.1318 = ReU + 1.125Reu - 0.06075
0.19255 = 2.125ReU
ReU = 0.19255 / 2.125 = 9.06%
ReL = 9.06% + (9.06% - 5.4%) x 2 x 0.75
ReL = 14.55%
ReL = 9.06% + (9.06% - 5.4%) x 1 x 0.75
ReL = 11.805%
Answer:
A
Explanation:
To calculate the adult population, we simply make use of the data available from the BLS.
We can simply make the calculations by adding the number of employed Adult Americans to the number of unemployed adult Americans.
We simply do not have any business with the number not in labor force because they are actually part of those that are employed but are not just in the labor force.
The adult population is thus:
143,929,000 + 11,460,000 =155,389,000
Answer: True
Explanation:
As of February 2020, Target Corp's total liabilities were listed to be $30,946,000,000 while its shareholder equity was significantly lower at $11,833,000,000.
Target Corp therefore does indeed have liabilities that exceed owners equity and by a substantial amount. This has also been the trend since at least 2015.
Answer:
<em>End up losing because it is legally binding the clause that would limit the statute of limitations to 18 months.</em>
Explanation:
Within UCC 2-725, in cases that involve the exchange of goods, a 4-year restriction law applies. The parties can reduce the duration to not less than 1 year (but not extend it).
When a delivery tender is made, an action for violation of warranty accrues (the statute begins to run).
However if the warranty specifically applies to future performance and violation disclosure must postpone that performance, the penalty will occur when the breach is discovered or should have been discovered.
Answer:
b) Paying higher wages can reduce a firm's training costs.
c) Paying higher wages encourages workers to be more productive.
d) Higher wages attract a more competent pool of workers.
Explanation:
Firms will hire more labor when the marginal revenue product of labor is greater than the wage rate, and stop hiring as soon as the two values are equal. The point at which the MRPL equals the prevailing wage rate is the labor market equilibrium.
The idea of the efficiency wage theory is that increasing wages can lead to increased labour productivity because workers feel more motivated to work with higher pay. Paying higher wages encourages workers to be more productive. Higher wages attract a more competent pool of workers. Workers stay with employers longer (instead of seeking out better-paying work with other companies) reducing businesses’ turnover, hiring, and training costs.
