There is a difference between Ethics and Law.

Answer:

Ethics are a thing of morals. They are someone's beliefs and opinions on what is right and wrong, and differ from person to person. Ethics are decided based on a persons upbringing, experiences, and social status; other things also play a part, but these are usually the most decisive factors. Ethics govern one's behaviour; people live their lives in many different ways based on these principals, despite the fact that a lot of the time there is no law telling them to, e.g. someone not swearing because they think it's wrong, despite there being nothing prohibiting them from doing so.  

Law is the system of rules which a country and its inhabitants must abide. Laws are in place to make everyone behave "correctly", and while they do limit the actions of many, some do break them. If a person refuses to follow the law, or breaks one of them, they are punished either with a fine, jail time, and in some places, death.  

Both ethics and law are meant to stop someone from behaving a certain way. They are both a set of rules, and while some of those rules are bent or broken in both cases, for the general population they do their job in making sure the person they're trying to control actually listen. You could also say both come with the threat of penalty if disobeyed; breaking the law is often followed by fines and sometimes jail time, breaking your ethics is often followed by intense feelings of guilt and sometimes effects on ones mental health.

However, unlike ethics, laws do not differ from one person to another, and are the same for everyone living in the subject country. For example, the law prohibiting murder applies to everyone, but the ethical choice not to smoke doesn't. Both have effects on peoples lives and how we all behave, but law is imposed by the government and is something that <em>must</em> not be broken, while you personally decide whether or not it's okay to break your morals; your ethics change as you grow and mature as a person, your laws do not.

Step-by-step explanation:

Deep Mines has 43,800 shares of common stock outstanding with a beta of 1.54 and a market price of $51 a share. There are 10,000
Zanzabum

Solution:

MV of equity=Price of equity*number of shares outstanding

MV of equity=51*43800

                    =2233800

MV of Bond=Par value*bonds outstanding*%age of par

MV of Bond=1000*5000*0.96

                   =4800000

MV of Preferred equity=Price*number of shares outstanding

MV of Preferred equity=83*10000

                                    =830000

MV of firm = MV of Equity + MV of Bond+ MV of Preferred equity

                 =2233800+4800000+830000

                 =7863800

Weight of equity = MV of Equity/MV of firm

Weight of equity = 2233800/7863800

W(E)=0.2841

Weight of debt = MV of Bond/MV of firm

Weight of debt = 4800000/7863800

W(D)=0.6104

Weight of preferred equity = MV of preferred equity/MV of firm

Weight of preferred equity = 830000/7863800

W(PE)=0.1055

Cost of equity

As per CAPM  , Cost of equity = risk-free rate + beta * (Market risk premium)

                       Cost of equity % = 3.6 + 1.54 * (7.5)

                       Cost of equity % = 15.15

Cost of debt

                K = Nx2

Bond Price =∑ [(Semi Annual Coupon)/(1 + YTM/2)^k]     +   Par value/(1 + YTM/2)^Nx2

                  k=1

                 K =13x2

960 =∑ [(8*1000/200)/(1 + YTM/200)^k]     +   1000/(1 + YTM/200)^13x2

                  k=1

YTM = 8.5146699304

After tax cost of debt = cost of debt*(1-tax rate)

After tax cost of debt = 8.5146699304*(1-0.21)

                                   = 6.726589245016

cost of preferred equity

cost of preferred equity = Preferred dividend/price*100

cost of preferred equity = 7/(83)*100

                                       =8.43

WACC=after tax cost of debt*W(D)+cost of equity*W(E)+Cost of preferred equity*W(PE)

WACC=6.73*0.6104+15.15*0.2841+8.43*0.1055

WACC =9.3%

On March 1, 2021, Beldon Corporation purchased land as a factory site for $64,000. An old building on the property was demolishe
Fofino [41]

Answer:

$638,000

Explanation:

The answer is simply the expenditure minus any selling from salvages.

First total Expenses(cost for land + cost for building) are as follow;

Land purchase: 64,000

Demolition: 6,000

Architect’s fees: 16,000

Legal fees for title investigation of land 4,000

Property taxes on land 3,400

Construction costs 540,000

Interest on construction loan 7,000.

.........................................................................

                     Total expenses = 64,000 +6,000+16,000+ 4,000+3,400+ 540,000 +7,000 = 640,400

                     Salvage sales = 2,400

                     Net Capital Cost = Total expenses - Salvage sales = $638,000

xxTIMURxx [149]

We are required to calculate the collection to be made in the month of May.

Based on the credit policy, the collections for the month of May will be as follows:

10% of March Sales - No Information Available

60% of April Sales = 60,000 * .6 = $36,000.

30% of May Sales  = 80,000 * .3 = $24,000.

Therefore, the total collection for May is $60,000 (36,000 + 24,000).
