Answer:
Explanation:
A) Energy can be both a fixed cost and a variable cost for a company. This is due to the sense that energy in the form of fixed electricity bill even when no production takes place (telephone bill), a fixed cost and electricity bill when production takes place would be a variable cost
B) An increment in fixed cost will shift the ATC curve to the right while the MC curve would remain the same because MC is the change in variable cost as output increases and is not related to fixed cost.
C) Corn cost is a variable cost for ethanol producer as each unit of corn is used to produce ethanol and thus use of corn is reliant upon how much ethanol is produced. This makes corn a variable input dependent on the production of output, therefore, the cost of corn is variable.
D) An increment in the variable cost will shift the ATC curve to the right and individual MC curve to the right.
Answer:
5000
Explanation:
100,000x5%= 5000
5000x4 years= 20,000x5%= 1000
5000x5=25,000x5%= 1250
1250+ 1000= 2250
R= 1750
5000-2250-1000= 1750

Answer:
19.82%
Explanation:
Midpoint method = Q2 - Q1 / [(Q2 + Q1) / 2] / P2 - P1 / [(P2+P1) / 2]
3.33 = 2000 - 1000 / [(2000 + 1000) / 2] / P2 - P1 / [(P2+P1)/2]
3.33 = 0.66 / (P2 - P1) / [(P2+P1)/2]
By cross multiplying we have
0.66 = 3.33 [ (P2 - P1) / [(P2+P1)/2]
divide both sides by 3.33
19.82% = The mid point change in price.
Answer:
14.35%
Explanation:
Simon Software Co
rs= 12%
D/E = 0.25
rRF= 6%
RPM= 5%
Tax rate = 40%.
We are going to find the firm’s current levered beta by using the CAPM formula which is :
rs = rRF+ RPM
12%= 6% + 5%
= 1.2
We are going to find the firm’s unlevered beta by using the Hamada equation:
=bU[1 + (1 −T)(D/E)]
Let plug in the formula
1.2= bU[1 + (0.6)(0.25)]
1.2=(1+0.15)
1.2= 1.15bU
1.2÷1.15
1.0435= bU
We are going to find the new levered beta not the new capital structure using the Hamada equation:
b= bU[1 + (1 −T)(D/E)]
Let plug in the formula
= 1.0435[1 + (0.6)(1)]
=1.0435(1+0.6)
=1.0435(1.6)
= 1.6696
Lastly we are going to find the firm’s new cost of equity given its new beta and the CAPM:
rs= rRF+ RPM(b)
Let plug in the formula
= 6% + 5%(1.6696)
= 14.35%
