The rate of return of the project is 30.36%

Explanation:

Cash flow generated for the first three years= $ 237,600 each of the three year

Cash flow generated for the 4th year= $ 274,800

Initial cost of the project= $ 757,600  

The return rate of the project?

For finding the return rate of the project, we need to find the total cash flow generated by the project for the complete period (i.e. 4 years)

⇒Total cash flow generated= cash flow for 3 years+ cash flow for 4th year

⇒$ (237,600*3) +$ 274,800

⇒$ 987,600

Return from the investment=$ 230,000

⇒Rate of return= (return/total investment) *100

Substituting the values-

⇒(230,000/757,600) *100

⇒30.36%  

The rate of return of the project is 30.36%

aniked [119]

Answer:

10.12 %

Explanation:

Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is the cost of permanent sources of capital pooled together. It shows the risk of the business and is used to evaluate projects.

WACC = Cost of equity x Weight of Equity + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt + Cost of Preference Stock x Weight of Preference Stock

<u>Remember to use the After tax cost of debt :</u>

After tax cost of debt = Interest x (1 - tax rate)

                                    = 10​% x ( 1 - 0.40)

                                    = 6.00 %

<u>Cost of equity :</u>

Cost of equity = Return from Risk free security + Beta x Risk Premium

                        = 4.00 % + 1.8 x 8.00%

                        = 18.40 %

<u>Cost of Preference Stock :</u>

Cost of Preference Stock  = Dividend / Market return x 100

                                            = $2.50 / $ 25 x 100

                                            = 10%

therefore,

WACC = 18.40 % x 30 % + 6.00 % x 60 % + 10.00% x 10%

           = 10.12 %

thus,

Ford's weighted average cost of capital is 10.12 %

MArishka [77]

Answer:

Option D (The optimal........capital) would be the right choice.

Explanation:

  • The optimal composition of capital would be the one with the lowest average capital structure.
  • Such alternatives are meaningless since the optimal capital structure is not reflected by them. Maximizing earnings growth, interest burdens, or equity burdens would not enhance the worth including its shareholder.
