Answer: Williamson industries would have obtained $7.78 billion in sales

Explanation: According to the question, the company is having a total of $2 billion in fixed assets. The fixed assets are currently operating at 90% (0.9) of its total capacity. At his level, the company is able to achieve a sales figure of $7 billion. The implication is as follows;

Fixed assets (at 100%) = 2 billion

Fixed assets (at 90%) = 2 * 0.9

Fixed assets (at 90%) = 1.8

If the company utilizes $1.8 billion to achieve a $7 billion sales figure, then operating at full capacity (100%) would yield the following;

7/x = 90/100

(Where x equals sales level at 100% capacity)

7/x = 0.9

Cross multiply

x = 7/0.9

x = 7.7777...

x ≈ 7.78

Therefore, if Williamson Industries had been operating at full capacity, it would have obtained a sales level of $7.78 billion

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The second option is the cheapest.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The first company offers free installation and equipment, but will charge you $401.00 per year forever. The second company charges $783.00 for installation, but will charge you $204.00 per year forever. Assume that payments are at the END of the year. Your personal interest rate is 5.00% per year

To calculate the present value, we need to use the formula for a perpetual annuity:

PV= Cf/i

Cf= cash flow

i= interest rate

Option 1:

PV= 401/0.05= $8,020

Option 2:

PV= 204/0.05 + 783/1.05= $4,825.71

The second option is the cheapest.

Amram Inc. can issue a 20-year bond with a 6% annual coupon at par. This bond is not convertible, not callable, and has no sinki
Reil [10]

Answer:

B) The coupon rate could be less than, equal to, or greater than 6%, depending on the specific terms set, but in the real world the convertible feature would probably cause the coupon rate to be less than 6%.

Explanation:

Amram Inc. is issuing two bonds, one is not convertible and the other one is convertible and callable. Regardless of the coupon rate that they plan to set, convertible and callable bonds will usually (almost always) have a coupon rate that is lower than non-convertible or non-callable bonds.

Convertible bonds are bonds that can be converted or exchanged to common stock. Since convertible bonds offer more investment options, their risk is lower than non-convertible bonds.

Callable bonds is a bond that can be redeemed before the maturity date.

December 31, 2022 = $10 million

Explanation:
