Answer:
5.4%
Explanation:
Several years ago the Haverford Company sold a $1,000 par value bond that now has 25 years to maturity and an 8.00% annual coupon that is paid quarterly. The bond currently sells for $900.90, and the company’s tax rate is 40%. What is the component cost of debt for use in the WACC calculation
Face value of bond = coupon amount / interest rate
1000 = 80 / 8%
Therefore 900.9 = 80 / revised interest rate
multiply both sides by the 'revised interest rate
revised interest rate x 900.9 = 80
Hence, revised interest rate = 80 / 900.9 = 9%
Secondly if the company’s tax rate is 40%, the component cost of debt for use in the WACC calculation = kd (1 - t)
where:
kd = Cost of debt
t = tax rate
Therefore cost of debt for use in the WACC calculation = 9% (1-0.4) = 5.4%

Explanation:
Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the cost of an asset to the income statement over the estimated useful life of that asset.
It is determined as the depreciable value of the asset over the estimated useful life of the asset where the depreciable value is the difference between the cost and salvage value of the asset
.
The amount of depreciation to be recognized for each mile that a rental automobile is driven
= ($15,000 - $6,000)/45,000
= $9,000/45,000
= $0.20
Total millage expected of the 60 cars before disposal
= 60 * 45,000 miles
= 2,700,000 miles
The total amount of depreciation expense that Central Auto Rentals should recognize on this fleet of cars for the year
= 1,610,000/2,700,000 * ($9,000 * 60)
= $322,000
