Answer:

12%

Explanation:

For computing the equity cost of capital first we have to determine the weight of the capital structure after that the WACC and then finally equity cost of capital which is shown below:

Weight of capital structure

For debt  

= $200 million ÷ $400 million

= 0.50

For equity

= 50 million × $4 ÷ $400 million

= 0.50

Now the WACC is

= 0.50  11% + 0.50 × 5%

= 8%

Since the value fo equity is declined by

= 50 × $3

= $150

Now the equity cost of capital is

= WACC + (WACC - interest rate) × (debt ÷ equity)

= 8% + (8% - 5%) × (200 ÷ 150)

= 12%

You are asked to recommend whether a firm should make or purchase product A. The following are data concerning the two options.
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

For the purchase​ option:

Buying price= ​$22 per unit.

For the make​ option:

Weekly rental payment of ​$30,800

The firm also has to hire five operators to help make product A. Each operator works eight hours per​ day, five days per week at the rate of ​$14 per hour.

The material cost for the make option is ​$15 per unit of product A.

A) We need to find the number of units that makes the unitary fixed costs= $7

Weekly rental= 30800

Direct labor= ($14*8 hours*5workes)*5 days= 2800

Total fixed costs= $33,600

Unitary fixed costs= total fixed costs/ Q

7=33600/Q

Q= 4800 units

B) Now Q= 6600

Buy= 6600*22= $145,200

Make= 6600*15 + 33600= $132,600
