Clem Oatley could grow wheat and barley. He could grow 75 bushels of wheat or 125 bushels of barley using the same resources on

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Clem should specialise in wheat production because he has higher profits there

Explanation:

Clem needs to make a decision on the product that will maximise his profits and not just the number of units of products he can manufacture.

If he produces only wheat he will have profit of 75 bushels * $2 = $150

If he produces only barley his profit will be 125 bushels * $0.80 = $100

This shows that wheat is more profitable for Clem. Even though he can produce more units of barley.

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

The answer is Late-mover disadvantages

Explanation:

A late mover is a company that enters a business some time after the business pioneers and early followers.

From the question above, Galaxy Ventures is a late mover in the low-cost housing business. They were at a huge disadvantage, and this includes:

First of all, lack of customer loyalty and substantial dividends (from the question).
The pioneers and early followers can set the business standards which may be difficult for a late mover to follow.
The pioneer can easily create entry barriers that a late-mover might find difficult to break.

The Corner Bakery has a bond issue outstanding that matures in 7 years. The bonds pay interest semi-annually. Currently, the bon

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Ans. The after tax cost of this bond is 2.09%

Explanation:

Hi, first we need to establish the cash flow of the bond, so we can find the after tax cost of the bond. After we find the after tax cash flow of the bond, we must use the IRR function of MS Excel to find the semi-annual cost of this debt, but, all after tax debts should be presented in annual basis. Let me walk you through the process. First, let me show you how it should look.

Face Value 100

price 101,4

years 7 years

Coupon 9%

Coupon 4,5% semi-annually

tax 30%

Per Cash Flow After Tax

0 101,4 101,4

1 -4,5 -3,15

2 -4,5 -3,15

3 -4,5 -3,15

4 -4,5 -3,15

5 -4,5 -3,15

6 -4,5 -3,15

7 -4,5 -3,15

8 -4,5 -3,15

9 -4,5 -3,15

10 -4,5 -3,15

11 -4,5 -3,15

12 -4,5 -3,15

13 -4,5 -3,15

14 -104,5 -73,15

Cost of Debt 1,04% semi-annually

Cost of Debt 2,09% annually

Ok, now, as you can see, there are 14 periods, that is because the coupon is paid semi-annually, the way to find the cash flow (I mean, the bond´s coupon) is:

$Coupon (semi-annual)=(Face Value)x\frac{0.09}{2} =4.5$

At the end (period 14), we need to add the face value and the coupon, that is $100+$4.5=$104.5

Now, to find the value of the third column (after-tax cost), we do the following.

$After-tax-Cost=Couponx(1-taxes)=4.5(1-0.3)=3.15\\$

Now, consider this, you are receiving 101.4 for every 100 of debt, that means that you are receiving more money than the emission value, and paying interests over 100 instead of 101.4, that is why we have to use the IRR excel function to find out the semi-annual cost of debt. That is, 1.04%.

Now, to make this an effective annual rate, we calculate it like this.

$EffectiveAnnualRate=(1+semi-annual Rate)^{\frac{1}{2} } -1=(1+0.0104)^{\frac{1}{2} } -1=0.0209$

Finally, the after-tax cost of this debt is = 2.09%

Best of luck.
