Answer:

A well-respected chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank suddenly resigns

Explanation:

A non-diversifiable or systematic risk, is a risk which is common to a whole market or class of investments and not just limited to just a particular company or investment.

Non-systematic risk is a risk common to just an investment or a company.

If the chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank suddenly resigns, it would affect a wide range of investments in the market and not just a company, which is an example of a non-diversifiable risk.

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

d. the firm will lose $750

Explanation:

marginal cost is the derivate of the cost function: It represent the cost of producting an additional unit

cost: 750 + 5q

dC/dQ = 5

We have determinate that marginal cost is $5 thus, we should price at the same value. The mistake from the goverment is to equalize marginal cost with price instead of marginal revenue.

This will make the firm loss the fixed component of the cost as will sale to pay up the variable cost.

The fixed cost is $750 so that is the loss from operations

olga55 [171]

Answer:

The company's WACC is 9.14%

Explanation:

cost of preferred stock

= (dividend on preferred stock)/(current market price)

= [$100*4%]/$72

= 5.56%

total finance = debt + equity + preferred stock

= (8,000*$1,060) + (310,000*$57) + (15,000*$72)

= $8,480,000 + $17,670,000 + $1,080,000

= $27,230,000

weight of debt = debt/total finance

= $8,480,000/$27,230,000

= 0.31

weight on equity = equity/total finace

= $1.080.000/$27,230,000

= 0.04

WACC

= (weight of debt*after tax cost of debt) + (weight on equity*cost of equity)

= (0.31*0.0393) + (0.65-0.1185) + (0.04*0.0556)

= 9.14%

Therefore, The company's WACC is 9.14%

5. FURNITURE - Straight Line Method

Book Value of Furniture = Cost of Acquisition - Residual Value

Cost of Acquisition = $9,600

Residual Value = $1,600

Book Value of Furniture = $9,600 - $1,600

Book Value of Furniture = $8,000

Useful Life = 4 years

Depreciation Expense = $8,000 / 4 years

Depreciation Expense = $2,000 per year

6. EQUIPMENT - Straight Line Method

Book Value of Equipment = Cost of Acquisition - Residual Value

Cost of Acquisition = $16,000

Residual Value = $1,000

Book Value of Furniture = $16,000 - $1,000

Book Value of Furniture = $15,000

Useful Life = 5 years

Depreciation Expense = $15,000 / 5 years
