Answer:

The before-tax cost of debt is adjusted for tax in the computation of weighted average cost of capital.

The correct answer is  D

Explanation:

In the calculation of weighted average cost of capital, the before tax cost of debt is adjusted for tax so as to obtain the after-tax cost of debt. Cost of equity and cost of preferred stocks will not be adjusted for tax.

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

C) $200.00

Explanation:

Absorption Product Cost = Direct Labor + Direct Materials + Variable Overheads + Fixed Overheads

Thus, we need to Calculate the Total Cost of Goods Manufactured as follows :

Direct materials used                        $160,000

Direct labor                                        $100,000

Variable factory overhead                 $60,000

Fixed factory overhead                      $80,000

Total Cost of Goods Manufactured $400,000

Then Calculate the product cost per unit

Product cost per unit = Total Cost / Total Production

                                   =  $400,000 / ($315,000/$225.00 + 600)

                                   =   $400,000 / 2,000

                                   =   $200.00

Note : Total Production = Units Sold <em>plus</em> Ending Finished Goods Inventory

An oil refinery is located on the north bank of a straight river that is 3km wide. A pipeline is to be constructed from the refi
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

$6,598,076.21

Explanation:

<h2>THE KEY IS TO FIND OUT THE COST FUNCTION, the calculations are very easy!!!</h2><h2></h2><h3>In order to find the cost function, take a look at the drawing attached. </h3>

We can see the river (sort of) that is 3 km wide and the storage tanks on the other side of the river 8 km apart.

<h3 />

Laying pipes under (across) the river costs 1,000,000 the km & laying pipes over land costs 500,000 per km.

<h3 /><h3>So basically the cost function is 1,000,000 multiplied by something plus 500,000 multiplied by another something.</h3><h3 />

The distance across the river can be found by using Pythagoras Theorem. A side is 3 km the other is unknown, so we call it X. And it is equal to:

\sqrt{3^{2} +x^{2}}=\\\sqrt{9 +x^{2}}

And we multiply it by 1,000,000; the cost of laying pipe under the river, the we get:

1000000\sqrt{9+x^{2}

The distance over the land is (8-x), as we can see in the drawing. So we multiply it by its cost, 500,000. And we get 500,000(8-x).

So the cost function f(x) would be:

f(x)=1000000\sqrt{9+x^{2}} + 500000(8-x)

<h2>From here, we just have to differentiate and the derivative found must be equal to zero in order to minimize cost. </h2><h3>The value of x when the derivative is zero is plugged in the original function to get the cost.</h3><h3 /><h2>LET'S DO THIS</h2>

f(x)=1000000\sqrt{9+x^{2}} + 500000(8-x)\\f(x)=1000000(9+x^{2})^{1/2}+4000000-500000x\\f'(x)=\frac{1}{2} 1000000(9+x^{2})^{-1/2}(2x)-500000\\\\f'(x)=\frac{1000000x}{\sqrt{9+x^2}}  - 500000

<h2>f'(x)=0</h2>

f'(x)=\frac{1000000x}{\sqrt{9+x^2}}  - 500000=0\\\frac{1000000x}{\sqrt{9+x^2}}  = 500000\\\frac{2x}{\sqrt{9+x^2}}  = 1\\2x={\sqrt{9+x^2}}\\4x^2=9+x^2\\3x^2=9\\x^2=3\\x=\sqrt{3} \\

And we plug square root of 3 in the original cost function  ad we get

f(\sqrt{3} )=1000000\sqrt{9+x^{2}} + 500000(8-x)\\f(\sqrt{3})=1000000\sqrt{9+(\sqrt{3} )^{2}} + 500000(8-(\sqrt{3}))\\f(\sqrt{3})=1000000\sqrt{9+3} + 500000(8-(\sqrt{3}))\\f(\sqrt{3})=1000000\sqrt{12}+500000(6.27)\\f(\sqrt{3})=1000000(3.46)+500000(6.27)\\f(\sqrt{3})=3464101.62+3133974.60\\f(\sqrt{3})=6598076.21\\

<h2>so the minimal cost is $6,598,076.21</h2><h2 /><h3 />

Which of the following is true when an economy produces at full employment, but consumers, government, businesses, and the forei
Art [367]

Answer:

When an economy produces at full employment, but consumers, government, there is a recessionary gap - Option B.

Explanation:

According to the Keynesian perspective, firms produce output only if they expect it to sell.

While the availability of the factors of production determines a nation’s potential gross domestic product (GDP), the amount of goods and services actually being sold, known as real GDP depends on how much demand exists across the economy.

Keynes termed a fall in the aggregate demand as a recessionary gap.

A recessionary gap refers to an economy operating at a level below its full-employment equilibrium. Under this condition, the level of real gross domestic product (GDP) is lower than the level of full employment, which puts downward pressure on prices in the long run.

Thus, when an economy produces at full employment, but consumers, government, there is a recessionary gap - Option B.
