Answer:

10%

Explanation:

Given that,

Interest at last year debt = 8%

Current year cost of debt = 25% higher

Firms paid for debt last year = 10%

Firms paid for debt in current year = 12.50%

Kd - cost of debt

Yield = Interest at last year debt × (1 + increase in cost of debt)

         = 8% × (1 + 0.25)

         = 8% × 1.25

         = 10%

Kd = Yield (1 – T)

Kd = 10% (1 – 0)

     = 10% (1)

     = 10%

Therefore, after tax cost of debt would be 10%.

Department S had no work in process at the beginning of the period. 13,934 units of direct materials were added during the perio
love history [14]

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Equivalent units of production(EUP) - Materials:

= Transferred out + Ending balance

= 10,451 units × 100% + 3,483 units × 100%

= 10,451 + 3,483

= 13,934

Equivalent units of production(EUP) - conversion:

= Transferred out + Ending balance

= 10,451 units × 100% + 3,483 units × 36%

= 10,451 + 1,253.88

= 11,704.88

Material cost = \frac{Cost\ of\ direct\ material}{EUP\ material}\times units\ transferred\ out

Material cost = \frac{97,538}{13,934}\times 10,451

                      = 73,157

Conversion cost = \frac{Direct labor+overhead}{EUP\ conversion}\times units\ transferred\ out

Conversion cost = \frac{51,257+8,903}{11,705}\times 10,451

Conversion cost = \frac{60,160}{11,705}\times 10,451

                            = 53,715

Therefore,

Total cost of units completed during the period(10,451 units):

= Material cost + Conversion cost

= 73,157 + 53,715

= 126,872

kiruha [24]

Answer:

The rate of return is 7.20%

Explanation:

a)  Assuming you purchased the bond for $880, in order to calculate the rate of return you earn if you held the bond for 25 years until it matured with a value $5,000 we would have to calculate the following formula:

Rate of Return = [FV/PV]1/n - 1

Rate of Return= [$5,000 / $880]1/25 - 1 = [5.6818]0.04 - 1 = 1.0720 - 1 = 0.0720, or 7.20%

Rate of Return= [5.6818]0.04 - 1

Rate of Return= 1.0720 - 1

Rate of Return=0.0720, or 7.20%

The rate of return is 7.20%

vekshin1

Answer:

A.8.85%

Explanation:

Computation to determine the weighted average cost of capital for Zonk based on the new capital structure.

First step is to calculate the Cost of equity capital using this formula

Cost of equity capital = Risk free rate + (Beta*Market premium)

Let plug in the formula

Cost of equity capital = 2.3% + (1.13*5.3%)

Cost of equity capital=8.28%

Now let determine theWeighted average cost capital

Weighted average cost capital = [.70*.14*(1-.35)]+(.30*.0828)

Weighted average cost capital= [.70*.14*.65]+.02484

Weighted average cost capital=0.0637+.02484

Weighted average cost capital= .0885*100

Weighted average cost capital= 8.85%

Therefore the weighted average cost of capital for Zonk based on the new capital structure is 8.85%
