Answer:
a. 4.94%
b. 11.48%
Explanation:
Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the pretax cost of debt and cost of equity.
We proceed as follows;
a. From the question;
The debt equity ratio = 1.15
since Equity = 1 ; Then
Total debt + Total equity = 1 + 1.15 = 2.15
Mathematically ;
WACC = Cost of equity x Weight of equity + Pretax Cost of debt x Weight of debt x (1-Tax rate)
Where WACC = 8.6%
Cost of equity = 14%
Weight of equity = 1/(total debt + total equity) = 1/(1+1.15) = 1/2.15
Pretax cost of debt = ?
Weight of debt = debt equity ratio/total cost of debt = 1.15/2.15
Tax rate = 21% = 0.21
Substituting these values, we have;
8.6% = 14% x 1/2.15 + Pretax cost of debt x 1.15/2.15 x (1-21%)
8.6% = 14% x 1/2.15 + Pretax cost of debt x 1.15/2.15 x (1-21%)
Pretax cost debt = (8.6%-6.511628%)/(1.15/2.15 x (1-21%))
Pretax cost of debt = 4.94%
b. WACC = Cost of equity x Weight of equity + After tax Cost of debt x Weight of debt
8.6% = Cost of equity x 1/2.15 + 6.1% x 1.15/2.15
Cost of equity = (8.6%-3.26279%)/(1/2.15)
Cost of equity = 11.48%
Answer
The answer and procedures of the exercise are attached in the following archives.
Step-by-step explanation:
You will find the procedures, formulas or necessary explanations in the archive attached below. If you have any question ask and I will aclare your doubts kindly.
a. 50 cents
Contribution margin per unit is price per unit- variable cost per unit
1.75 - ($50,000/40,000 units)
1.75 - 1.25 = $ .50
b. $8750
Margin of safety is the expected sales - break even sales
(45,000 units * $1.75 per unit) - (40,000 *1.75)
78,750 - 70,000 = $8750
When there is an increase in the deficit of the current account, the pressure on the home currency value all things equal would be a downward pressure.
<h3>What happens when there is a current account deficit?</h3>
A current account deficit means that the country is earning less from exporting goods to other countries than it is losing from importing from other nations.
What this means is that more money is flowing out of the country than the money that is coming in. What this leads to a loss in currency value because it points to less demand for the home currency.
This is because the deficit would place a downward pressure on the local currency. On the upside, this decrease in currency value might spur exports which would lead to a better current account balance.
In conclusion, there will be downward pressure.
