Answer:

0.9

Explanation:

The formula to compute the four-firm concentration ratio is shown below:

= (Total firm sales of industry A) ÷ (Total firm sales of industry B)

where,

Total firm sales of industry A = $5 million + $2 million + $1 million + $1 million

= $9 million

And, the total firm sales of industry B would be

= $2.5 million × 4 firms

= $10 million

So, the ratio would be

= $9 million ÷ $10 million

= 0.9

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%

Bradford Company derived the following cost relationship from a regression analysis of its monthly manufacturing overhead cost:
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Bradford's estimated variable manufacturing overhead cost is $127,200

Explanation:

The cost function=$83,000+$12M

where M stands for machine hours required to produce the expected output in the month under review.

Each one-six unit case of Bradford's single product requires two machine hours,hence 5,300 cases would require 10,600 hours(5,300*2hrs).

Total estimated variable manufacturing overhead=cost per machine hour*expected number of machine hours

cost per machine hour is $12 as seen in the cost function

estimated variable manufacturing overhead=$12*10,600=$127,200
