Answer:

The complete answers are below.

Explanation:

a) The main difference between Financial Accounting and Managerail Accounting is its purposes and the stakeholders who make use of the information that each one provides.  

While financial accounting refers to the aggregation of accounting information in the financial statements, management accounting refers to the internal processes used to account for business transactions.

For instance: Financial accounting reports on the results of an entire business, Managerial accounting reports at a more detailed level. Financial accounting must comply with various accounting standards, whereas managerial accounting does not have to comply with any standards when information is compiled for internal consumption.

b) The financial statements most frequently provide are: Balance Sheet or Financial Position, Income Statement, Statement of cash flows and Statement of Changes in Equity.

c) In general, financial reports and financial statements differ in the formal status of financial statements in business and accounting, and these respond to standards such as GAAP and IFRS. While the financial reports have a format or presentation rules given by management, the financial statements, in the other hand, are prepared on regular basis as specific entities are required to do so according to applicable laws. It can be said that financial accounting provides financial statements and managerial accounting is responsible for financial reports.

Answer:

WACC = 0.16637 OR 16.637%

Explanation:

WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure which can comprise of debt, preferred stock and common equity. The WACC for a firm with only debt and common equity can be calculated as follows,

WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate)  +  wE * rE

Where,

  • w represents the weight of each component based on market value in the capital structure
  • r represents the cost of each component
  • D and E represents debt and equity respectively

To calculate WACC, we first need to calculate the Market value an cost of equity.

The market value of equity = 30 million shares * $40 per share

MV of equity = $1200 million

The cost of equity can be found using the formula for Price today (P0) under constant growth model of DDM.

P0 = D1 / (r - g)

40 = 4 / (r - 0.07)

40 * (r - 0.07) = 4

40r - 2.8 = 4

40r = 4+2.8

r = 6.8 / 40

r = 0.17 or 17%

MV of debt = 40 million * 96.5%  => $38.6 million

Total MV of capital structure = 38.6 + 1200 = 1238.6 million

WACC = 38.6/1238.6  *  0.08  *  (1-0.33)  +  1200/1238.6  *  0.17

WACC = 0.16637 OR 16.637%
