Answer:
WACC = 12.040%
Explanation:
WACC represents weighted average cost of all sources of financing. In the question there are three sources of finance 1) Equity 2) Preferred Stock 3) Debt.
1) Equity: The firm intends to raise $ 320,000 from equity out of total financing of $ 570,000 e.g. 56% of total financing comes from Equity. Thus multiplying the cost of equity 14.7% (given) with ratio of equity financing, we get to weighted average cost of equity of 8.253%.
2) Debt: The firm is raising $ 230,000 from debt e.g. 40% of total financing. The proportion of debt is multiplied by post tax cost of debt as the interest expense is deductible expense for tax purposes in most of the jurisdiction. Therefore we reduce the cost of debt with element of (1 - tax rate), thus we get to 8.325% = 11.1 (1 - 25%) as total cost of debt. In order to get weighted average cost of debt we multiply this post tax cost of debt with ratio of debt financing 40%, thus weighted average cost of debt is 8.325 * 40% = 3.359%
3) Preferred Stock: The firm is also raising finance from preferred stock having cost of 12.2%. Proportion of financing from preferred stock is 4% in total mix of financing, thus weighted average cost of preferred stock is 12.2% * 4% = 0.428%.
Now adding weighted average cost of all three sources of funding, we get WACC: 8.253% + 3.359% + 0.428% = 12.040%
Answer: Increase of 3.2%
Explanation:
Return on Investment (ROI) is the return that Ruby would make over her college degree fees.
It is the internal rate of return that would equate her future earnings to the investment in college fees.
Change in ROI = 11.18% - 7.98
= 3.2%
Increase of 3.2%
Answer:
60 pizzas
40 pizzas
Explanation:
Marginal product measures the change in output as a result of a change in input by one unit
Marginal product = change in output / change in input
Marginal product for the 4th worker
Change in output = 360 - 300 = 60 pizzas
Change in input = 4 - 3 = 1 worker
Marginal product = 60 / 1 = 60
Marginal product for the 5th worker
Change in output = 400 - 360 = 40 pizzas
Change in input = 5 - 4 = 1
Marginal product = 40 / 1 = 40
It can be seen that marginal product decreased from 60 to 40 when the 5th worker was added. This illustrates diminishing marginal returns.
The law of diminishing returns says as more units of a variable input is added to a fixed income of production, output might increase at a point but after some time total output would increase at a decreasing rate and marginal product would be decreasing.
