Answer:

Both options C and D are correct.

Explanation:

Inflation refers to an increase in the general price level of goods and services overtime. Since it is conveyed in the question that the general price level in a later year became twice as high, inflation definitely occurred. Hence, option D is correct.

Nominal GDP is the value of the total output at current market prices. Real GDP adjusts that value for inflation. As prices double, nominal GDP ought to increase from $400m to $800m. However, it actually rose to $1000m. This additional increase of $200m shows that the real GDP has risen. However, the increase in real GDP is less than 100%. This implies option C is also correct.

Dodge, Incorporated acquires 15% of Gates Corporation on January 1, 2011, for $105,000 when the book value of Gates was $600,000
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

a. $80,000

Explanation:

In this question we are only concerned about the net income reported by Dodge on its income statement.

First we need to calculate ownership % in 2012 = 15% + 25% = 40%

Net income of 2012 (Gates) = $ 200000

hence Dodge will report net income of 40% of 200000 = $80000

Hence the correct answer is A

Note: Dividends will not affect the investors net income but it would reduce the investment value of Gate reported by Dodge (as it is seen as a return on investment)

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Cost of equity is 11.2%

WACC is 8.74%

Explanation:

The formula for cost of equity is given below:

Cost of equity=risk free rate+(Beta *risk premium)

risk free rate is the treasury bill rate of 4%

Beta is 0.9

market risk premium is 8%

cost of equity=4%+(0.9*8%)=11.2%

WACC=Ke*E/V+Kd*D/V*(1-t)

Ke is the cost of equity of 11.2%

Kd is the cost of debt of 5%

t is the tax rate of 40% or 0.4

E is the equity weighting of 70% or 0.7

D is the debt weighting of 30% or 0.3

V is the E+D=0.7+0.3=1

WACC=11.20% *0.7/1+(5%*0.3/1*(1-0.4)

WACC=7.84% +0.90% =8.74%
