Answer:

Depreciation expense for 2017: $26,400

The book value of the equipment at December 31, 2017: $45,600

Explanation:

Under the straight-line method, useful life is 5 years, so the asset's annual depreciation will be 20% of the Depreciable cost.

Depreciable cost = Total cost of the equipment - Residual value =  $72,000 - $6,000 = $66,000

Under the double-declining-balance method the 20% straight line rate is doubled to 40% - multiplied times the Depreciable cost's book value at the beginning of the year.

Depreciation expense for 2017 = 40% x $66,000 = $26,400

Accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2017 = $26,400

Book value of the equipment at December 31, 2017 = Cost of the equipment - Accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2017 = $72,000 - $26,400 = $45,600

Suppose that Rearden Metal currently has no debt and has an equity cost of capital of 12%. Rearden is considering borrowing fund
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

We have to use MM proposition that cost of equity will change itself in such a manner so that it can take care of its debt.

Cost of equity:

= WACC of all equity firm + (WACC of all equity - Cost of debt ) × (Debt -to-equity ratio)

At the beginning, when there was no debt,

WACC = cost of equity = 12 %

Levered cost of equity:

= 12% + ( 12% - 6%) × 0.5

= 15%

Therefore, Rearden's levered cost of equity would be closest to 15%.
