MicroTech Corporation maintains a capital structure of 40 percent debt and 60 percent common equity. To finance its capital budg

et for next year, the firm will sell 11% coupon bonds at par value (assume no flotation costs). The firm will finance the rest of its capital expenditures with retained earnings. MicroTech expects next year's dividend to be $1.30 per share. Dividends are expected to grow at 7% per year for the foreseeable future. The current market value of MicroTech's common stock is $30 per share. If the firm has a corporate tax rate of 21%, what is its weighted cost of capital for next year?

Answer:

weighted cost of capital for next year is 10.27 %.

Explanation:

Weighted cost of capital = Ke × (E/V) + Kd × (D/V)

Ke = Cost of Equity

    = Dividend Yield + Expected growth rate

    = $1.30 / $30.00 + 0.07

    = 0.11333 or 11.33 %

Kd = Cost of Debt

     = Interest × (1 - tax rate)

     = 11% × ( 1 - 0.21)

     = 8.69 %

Weighted cost of capital =  11.33 % × 60% + 8.69 % × 40%

                                         = 10.27 %

Calculating the Direct Labor Rate Variance and the Direct Labor Efficiency Variance
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Guillermo's Oil and Lube Company

Calculating the Direct Labor Rate Variance and the Direct Labor Efficiency Variance

a1. Direct labor rate variance (LRV) = Actual Labor Rate minus Standard Labor Rate multiplied by Actual hours worked

= $16 - $15 x 291

= $291 U

a2. Direct labor efficiency variance (LEV) = Standard hours minus Actual hours x Standard hourly rate

= 297 - 291 x $15

= $90 F

b1. Direct labor rate variance (LRV) = the difference between the actual wages paid and the standard wages

= (Actual labour rate x actual hours) - (standard rate x actual hours)

= ($16 x 291) - ($15 x 291)

= $4,656 - $4,365

= $291 U

b2. Direct labor efficiency variance = the difference between the actual number of direct labor hours worked and budgeted direct labor hours that should have been worked based on the standards

(291 x $15) - (297 x $15)

4,365 - 4,455

= $90 F

c. Total Direct labor rate variance (LRV) = Actual Wages minus Standard Wages

= (Actual labor rate x Actual hours) - (Standard labor rate x Standard hours)

= ($16 x 291) - ($15 x 297)

= $4,656 - $4,455

= $201 U

d. If actual wage rate paid in June was $14.00:

d1. Direct labor rate variance (LRV) = Actual Labor Rate minus Standard Labor Rate multiplied by Actual hours worked

= $14 - $15 x 291

= $291 F

d2. Direct labor efficiency variance (LEV) = Standard hours minus Actual hours x Standard hourly rate

= 297 - 291 x $15

= $90 F

d3. Total Direct labor rate variance (LRV) = Actual Wages minus Standard Wages

= (Actual labor rate x Actual hours) - (Standard labor rate x Standard hours)

= ($14 x 291) - ($15 x 297)

= $4,074 - $4,455

= $381 F

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations

Actual number of oil changes performed: 990

Standard number of direct labor hours to for 990 oil changes = 990 x 0.3 hours (since 18 minutes = 0.3 hours or 18/60) = 297 hours

Actual number of direct labor hours worked: 291 hours

Actual rate paid per direct labor hour: $16.00

Standard rate per direct labor hour: $15.00

b) The impact on direct labor rate variance if the actual wage rate paid in June was $14 was to turn the unfavorable labor rate variance into a favorable variance of $291 and the total direct labor variance would have been a favorable variance $381 instead of an unfavorable variance of $201.

Sudoku Company issues 17,000 shares of $8 par value common stock in exchange for land and a building. The land is valued at $230
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Debit Land for $230,000

Debit Building for $372,000

Credit Common Stock (w.1) for $136,000

Credit Paid in capital in excess of per value (w.2)  for $466,000

Explanation:

The journal entry will look as follows:

<u>Account Name                                                Dr ($)                  Cr ($)           </u>

Land                                                             230,000

Building                                                        372,000

Common Stock (w.1)                                                                136,000

Paid in capital in excess of per value (w.2)                           466,000

<u><em>(To record issuance of stock in exchange for the land and building.)         </em></u>

Workings:

w.1: Common stock = Number of shares issued * Price per share = 17,000 * $8 = $136,000

w.2: Paid in capital in excess of per value = Value of land + Value of building - Common stock = $230,000 + $372,000 - $136,000 = $466,000

Gift of $71,000 is <u>time restricted</u> as it cannot be spent for 4 years.

Gift of $91,000 is <u>purpose restricted</u> as it must be used for the purpose of salaries.

Gift of $121,000 is <u>permanently restricted</u> as it must be held forever.

Income earned from the above gift of $11,000 is <u>purpose restricted</u> for needy families.

The gifts with donor restrictions total:

= 71,000 + 91,000 + 121,000 + 11,000

= $294,000
