Kipish [7]

Answer:

$1.07

Explanation:

The marginal cost measures the change in total cost of adding on more worker divided by the change in product for this additional worker (marginal product of labor). When adding one more worker, costs will increase by $80 (wage rate), while product will increase by 75. Therefore, the marginal cost is:

$MC=\frac{80}{75}\\MC=\$1.07$

The marginal cost is $1.07.

You have the following data on The Home Depot, Inc. Market value of long-term debt: $20,888 million Market value of common stock

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Expected rate of return on equity under the new capital structure is 9.75 %

Explanation:

given data

Market value of long-term debt = $20,888 million

Market value of common stock = $171,138 million

Beta = 1.04

Yield to maturity at 10 year t = 2.167%

Expected return on equity = 8.895%

Marginal tax rate t = 35%

solution

we get here cost of unlevered equity by the cost of levered equity formula that is

cost of levered equity = rSU + (rSU-rD) × (1-t) × (D÷S) .................1

here rSL is cost of levered equity and rSU is cost of unlevered equity and rD is before tax cost of debt and D is value of debt and S is value of equity.

put here value and we will get

8.895% = rSU + (rSU-2.167%) × (1-35%) × (20,888÷171,138)

solve it we get

rSU = 0.084005

cost of unlevered equity = 8.40 %

and

cost of levered equity for new capital structure will be

put here value in equation 1

cost of levered equity = 8.40 + (8.40-2.376%) × (1-35%) × ( 20 ÷ 80 )

cost of levered equity = 9.75 %
