Answer:

The requirement is to calculate the cost of each finance instrument whose details were given in the question:

after tax cost of debt is 6.28%

cost of equity is 13.63%

cost of preferred stock is 6.20%

after tax cost of debt is 7.85%

Explanation:

1. after cost of debt:

The pretax cost of debt can be determined using the rate formula in excel:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is the number of coupon payments the bond would make i.e 10*2=20

pmt is given as $57

pv is the current price of the bond $1120

fv is the par value of $1000

=rate(20,57,-1120,1000)=4.76%(semi-annually)

=9.52% annually

After cost of debt =9.52%*(1-0.34)=6.28%

2. cost of equity

share price=Do*(1+g)/r-g

r is the cost of equity

r=Do*(1+g)/share price+g

r=$1.82*(1+6.5%)/$27.22+6.5%

r=(1.94/27.22)+6.5%=13.63%

3. cost of preferred  share=dividend/market price

dividend=8.8%*$100=$8.8

market price is $142

cost of preferred share=$8.8/$142=6.20%

4.after tax cost of debt

pretax cost of debt is 11.9%

tax rate is 34%

after tax cost of debt =11.9%*(1-0.34)=7.85%

Quadcopters plans to sell a standard quadcopter ​(toy drone) for $ 55 and a deluxe quadcopter for $ 85. Funtime purchases the st
Harman [31]

Answer:

For break-even, number of standard quadcopter sold should be 238

and, number of standard quadcopter sold should be 2 × 238 = 476

to earn $7,700,  number of standard quadcopter sold should be 392

and, number of standard quadcopter sold should be 2 × 392 = 784

Explanation:

Given:

Selling cost of standard quadcopter = $55

Selling cost of deluxe quadcopter = $85

Purchasing cost of standard quadcopter = $45

Purchasing cost of deluxe quadcopter = $65

monthly fixed expenses = $ 11,900

Now,

let the number standard quadcopter sold be 'x'

thus, according to the question

the number deluxe quadcopter sold will be = 2x

also,

at break-even

total cost = total revenue

or

Total fixed cost + Total purchasing cost = Total revenue

or

$11,900 + ($45x + $65 × 2x) = $55x + $85 × 2x

or

$11,900 + $45x + $130x = $55x + $170x

or

$11,900 + $175x = $225x

or

$225x - $175x = $11,900

or

$50x = $11,900

or

x = 238

Hence,

For break-even, number of standard quadcopter sold should be 238

and, number of standard quadcopter sold should be 2 × 238 = 476

To earn $7,700

Earning = Total Revenue - Total cost

$7,700 = ( $55x + $85 × 2x ) - [$11,900 + ($45x + $65 × 2x)]

$7,700 = $225x - $11,900 - $175x

or

$7,700 + $11,900 = $50x

or

$50x = $19,600

or

x = 392

Therefore,

to earn $7,700,  number of standard quadcopter sold should be 392

and, number of standard quadcopter sold should be 2 × 392 = 784
