Answer:
a. 7.30%
b. 4.745%
Explanation:
For computing the pretax cost of debt we have to applied the RATE formula i.e to be shown in the attachment below:
Given that,
Present value = $1,000 × 106% = $1,060
Assuming figure - Future value or Face value = $1,000
PMT = 1,000 × 8% ÷ 2 = $40
NPER = 14 years × 2 = 28 years
The formula is shown below:
= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after applying the above formula
a. The pretax cost of debt is
= 3.65% × 2
= 7.30%
b. And, the after tax cost of debt would be
= Pretax cost of debt × ( 1 - tax rate)
= 7.30 % × ( 1 - 0.35)
= 4.745%
Answer:
500
Explanation:
please find attached the table referred to in this question and a second table where marginal cost is included
A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogeneous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply.
in a perfect competition, price = marginal cost = marginal revenue
Marginal cost = total cost 2 - total cost 1
e.g. marginal cost at 2 units of output = $7 - $2 = $5
Hank and Helen would supply at the point where marginal cost is equal to $5.
looking at the second attached table, there are two points where marginal cost is equal to $5. at output 1 and output 5.
at output one, Hank and Helen would be earning a loss because total cost is greater than total revenue. so they would not supply at this point.
at output five, Hank and Helen would earn a profit and thus would supply at 5 units of output.
Since all firms face and identical cost structure, the industry supply would be 100 x 5 = 500 pounds
