Answer:
a)
Cost of debt (after tax) = 5.4%
Cost of preferred stock (
) = 10.53%
Cost of common stock (
) = 16.18%
b)
WACC = 14%
c)
project 1 and project 2
Explanation:
Given that:
Debt rate (
) = 9% = 0.09
Tax rate (T) = 40% = 0.4
Dividend per share (
) = $6
Price per share (
) = $57
Common stock price (
)= $39
Expected dividend (
) = $4.75
Growth rate (g) = 4% = 0.04
The target capital structure consists of 75% common stock (
), 15% debt (
), and 10% preferred stock (
)
a)
Cost of debt (after tax) =`
Cost of debt (after tax) = 5.4%
Cost of preferred stock (
) =
= 10.53%
= 10.53%
Cost of common stock (
) =
= 16.18%
b)

WACC = 14%
c) Only projects with expected returns that exceed WACC will be accepted. Therefore only project 1 and project 2 would be accepted
Answer:
The profit margin earned if each unit requires two machine-hours is 25%
Explanation:
For computing the profit margin, first, we have to compute the estimated overhead rate per unit which is shown below:
Estimated Overhead rate = (Estimated manufacturing overhead costs) ÷ (estimated machine hours)
= ($240,000) ÷ (40,000 machine hours)
= $6
Now the profit per margin would equal to
= Selling price per unit - direct cost per unit - overhead cost per unit × number of required machine hours
= $20 - $3 - $6 × 2
= $5
Now the profit margin would equal to
= (Profit per unit) ÷ (selling price per unit) × 00
= ($5 ÷ $20) × 100
= 25%

Answer:
Monthly deposit= $485.93
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
You want to retire exactly 35 years from today with $2,020,000 in your retirement account.
interest rate= 10.35 percent compounded monthly
First, we need to calculate the monthly interest rate.
Monthly interest rate= 0.1035/12= 0.008625
Now, using the following formula we can calculate the monthly deposit:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= monthly deposit
Isolating A:
A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}
n= 35*12= 420
A= (2,020,000*0.008625) / [(1.008625^420)-1]
A= $485.93
Answer: a) It captures the full price that customers might be willing to pay for a product.
Explanation:
The cost-plus pricing method involves using the total cost to come up with a selling price by simply adding a markup that the company would like as profit to the total cost of the product per unit and then selling it at that price.
It is easy to justify to stakeholders, simplifies pricing processes and is quite easy to measure or estimate.
It however does not capture how much a customer may be willing to pay for for a good as it is based on the company's expenses and preferred profit.
