Answer:

$94

Explanation:

The computation of the cost of the ending inventory using the FIFO method is shown below:

But before that first we have to determine the ending inventory units which is

= 7 units from A to G + 5 units from H to L + 6 units from M to R

= 18 units

And, 6 units are sold

So, the ending inventory units is 12 units

Now the ending inventory is

From last to beginning

= 6 units × $8.50 + 5 units × $7.50 + 1 units × $5.50

= $51 + $37.5 + 5.50

= $94

This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options

Equity weight =E÷E+P+D

Let plug in the formula

Equity weight=$2,000,000×$27÷$2,000,000×$27+$1,000,000×$14.50+$10,000×.98×$1,000

Equity weight=$14,500,000÷$78,300,000

Equity weight=.1852×100

Equity weight=18.52%

Therefore what would be the equity weight is 18.52%

A financial ratio by itself tells us little about a company since financial ratios vary a great deal across industries. There ar
Sergio [31]

Answer:

When doing time trend analysis for financial ratios we can know how a company's ratio's have changed over time or if they have remained the same, so for example if a company's current ratio was less than 1 a year ago and is 3 now it means that the company was not very liquid a year ago but since then has made changes because of which it is liquid now, so we can see how a company has performed over a certain period of time.

On the other hand peer group analysis tells us how a company is performing compared to other companies in the same industry. For example if our cement company has a profit margin of 7% but the industry average is 15% we know that our company is doing something wrong  or different as compared to the industry and we can look into it.

Frankenstein Electric has a capital structure that consists of 60 percent equity and 40 percent debt. The company's long-term bo
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

Kd = 7%

Ke =      D1      +  g

        Po(1 - FC)

Ke =      $2            + 0.09

        $40(1 - 0.15)

Ke =       $2      +  0.09

              $34

Ke = 0.1488 = 14.88%

WACC = Ke(E/V) + Kd(D/V)(1-T)

WACC = 14.88(60/100) + 7(40/100)(1 - 0.40)

WACC = 8.928 + 1.68

WACC = 10.6%

Explanation:

In this case before-tax cost of debt is given. Cost of equity is expected dividend divided by current market price after flotation cost plus growth rate. WACC is calculated as cost of equity multiplied by the proportion of equity in the capital structure plus after-tax cost of debt multiplied by proportion of debt in the capital structure.
