Answer:

9.564%

Explanation:

Given that,

Cost of Debt = 9%

Tax Rate = 34%

Weight of Debt = 60%

Cost of Equity = 15%

Weight of Equity = 40%

TipsNToes' WACC:

= [Cost of Debt × (1 - Tax Rate) × Weight of Debt] + [Cost of Equity × Weight of Equity ]

= [9 × (1 - 0.34) × 0.60] + (15 × 0.40)

= 9.564%

Therefore, the TipsNToes' WACC will be 9.564%

UNO [17]

Answer:

Annual demand (U) = 90.000 bags

Cost of each bag = $1.50

Inventory carrying cost per unit(C) = $1.50 × 20% = 0 30

Ordering cost per unit (O) = $15

Part A)

EOQ = \sqrt{\frac{2UO}{C}}

EOQ = \sqrt{\frac{2 * 90000 * 15}{0.30}}

EOQ = \sqrt{9000000}

EOQ = 3,000

Part B)

Maximum inventory = EOQ + Safety inventory on hand  

Maximum inventory = 3000 + 1000

Maximum inventory = 4.000

Part C)

Average inventory = Maximum inventory + Minimum or Safety /2

Average inventory = 4,000 + 1,000 / 2

Average inventory =2,500

Part D)

How often company order = Annual demand / EOQ

How often company order = 90,000 / 3.000

How often company order = 30

Debit Rent expense

Credit Prepaid rent

Borghia Pharmaceuticals has $1 million allocated for capital expenditures. a. Which of the following projects should the company
balu736 [363]

Answer:

Please refer below the answer in detail

Explanation:

a)

With a limited budget, the firm will first pursue projects with the highest return, and the allocate the remaining capital to the project with the second highest return, and so on until all capital is fully allocated. Based on the information, Project 6 has the highest return, followed by 1 and 3. These three projects together will cost:

350,000 + 300,000 + 250,000 = $900,000

After those three projects, the firm will have $100,000 left. The best out of remaining project is 7, but it costs 400,000, which the firm cannot afford. The best affordable project is 4, which offers a return of 12.1%. Hence, the firm should spend the remaining 100,000 on project 4.

b)

The budget limit constraints the firm to give up project 7, which offers a NPV of $48,000. The firm is forced to choose project 4, which has a NPV of $14,000.

Thus the lost in market value of the firm = 48,000 - 14,000 = $34,000.
