Answer:

Option (C) $178

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Startup expense incurred by the business = $9,000

Now,

The start-up costs and organizational expenses are deducted over a time period of 180 months

also,

$5,000 can be deducted in the first year by the startup expense.

Therefore,

Amortization amount reported as a "other expense" on Schedule C per month

= [ Startup expense - $5,000 ] ÷ 180

= [ $9,000 - $5,000 ] ÷180 = $22.22

for the year = $22.22 × Number of months left in the year from May

= $22.22 × 8

= 177.78 ≈ $178

Hence,

Option (C) $178

wants to have a weighted average cost of capital of 9.0 percent. The firm has an after-tax cost of debt of 6.0 percent and a cos
kogti [31]

Answer:

33.33%

Explanation:

WACC can be calculated using the following formula:

WACC = Ke * (E/V)       +    Kd(1-T) * (D/V)

Here

V = Market Value of Equity + Market Value of Debt

Or simple we can write it as:

V = E + D

kd(1-T) is after tax cost of debt which is given in the question and is 6%.

Ke = 9% cost of equity

WACC = 9%

So by putting values we have:

9% = 11% * (E/V) +  6% * (D/V)

Which means:

0.09 = 0.11(E/V) +  0.06(D/V)

By multiplying by (V/E), we have:

0.09(V/E) = 0.11 + 0.06(D/E)

As we know that the V/E is just the equity multiplier, which is equal to:

V/E = 1 + D/E

So by putting value we have:

0.09(D/E + 1) = 0.11 + 0.06(D/E)

Now, we can solve for D/E as:

0.09(D/E) + 0.09 = 0.11 + 0.06(D/E)

0.09(D/E) - 0.06(D/E) = 0.11 - 0.09

0.03(D/E) = 0.03

(D/E) = 0.02 / 0.03 = 33.33%

Think about your decision to buy the textbook for this course. You paid $250 for the book, but you would have been willing to pa
mart [117]

If the questions are “would I choose to buy the book in the first place”, and “Would I sell the book at the end of the course”, the answer to both questions is yes. The benefit of buying the book for the course is $400 dollars, which is greater than the sales price of $250. Thus, I would buy the book. At the end of the course, the benefit of keeping the book is $50, while my potential sales price is $125 (50% of 250). Thus, I can sell the book for more than it is worth to me, so I will sell the book at the end of the course.

Farrell wants to retire in six years. To have sufficient assets to fund retirement, Farrell needs to accumulate an additional $4
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

$73,070.5

Explanation:

Inflation erodes the value of money. It makes more quantity of money to required to buy the same basket of food and services in the future.

With inflation, to calculate the the quantity of Dollars needed in n years time, we use the formula;

Inflated amount = h × (1 + f)^n

h= amount required today, f - inflation rate, n- number of years

So if Farrell needs $400,000 in 6 years time in real terms, with an inflation of 5% per year, he would need to have a quantity of money equal to

1.05^6 × 400,000 = $536,038.3.

To provide for $536,038.3  in 6 years time, he would need to contribute into a sinking fund on a yearly basis, an equal amount denoted as "A" in the formula below:

FV = A ×  ((1+r)^n  - 1)/r

FV - 536,038.3, r - 8%, n = 6

536,038.3 = A × ((1+0.08 )^(6) - 1)/0.08)

536, 038.3 = A × 7.3359

536,038.3/7.3359 = A

$73,070.5  = A

Farrell should invest at the end of every year

$73,070.5
