Answer:

The Weighted Average cost of capital measures the cost to the company of its current capital structure by using the weights of the various capital measures. WACC usually uses market values so;

Total amount = Debt + Preferred stock + common equity

= 100 million + 20 million + ( 50 * 6 million)

= $420 million

<u>Proportions.</u>

Debt

= 100/420

= 24%

Preferred Stock<u> </u>

= 20/420

= 5%

Common Equity

= 300/420

= 71%

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

I agree with Mike because pure risks involve only possible losses. Since he owns his house, the possibility of it burning down would represent only a loss to him.

But if he buys insurance, he will pay an insurance premium which means that if the house burns down, the company will lose money, but if the hose doesn't burn down, the insurance company will make a profit. This represents speculative risk because the possibility of a gain and a loss exist.

seraphim [82]

Answer:

Total variation= $363 favorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sheridan Company’s standard labor cost per unit of output is $33.00 (3.00 hours x $11.00 per hour). During August, the company incurs 2,970 hours of direct labor at an hourly cost of $12.10 per hour in making 1,100 units of finished product.

Direct labor efficiency variance= (SQ - AQ)*standard rate

Direct labor efficiency variance= (3,300 - 2,970)*11= 3,630 favorable

Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity

Direct labor rate variance= (11 - 12.1)*2,970= 3,267 unfavorable

Total variation= 363 favorable

An investment offers a total return of 11 percent over the coming year. Alex Hamilton thinks the total real return on this inves
Ahat [919]

Answer:

2.87%.

Explanation:

The total return, also refer to as Nominal return or Money return, is based on the nominal interest rate. For example, let's say that you deposited $100 into a bank account and the bank offers you an annual return of 11%. This 11% is the stated interest rate, it is known as nominal interest rate, and it is rate before taking into account the effect of inflation. When we deduct the effect of inflation from nominal rate, it gives us the real rate. Real rate reflects the Purchasing Power. The Fisher equation will be used to determine the expected inflation rate. The Fisher equation is as follows:

                                            (1 + i ) = (1 + r) * (1 + h)

where

i = Nominal (Money) rate

r = Real rate

h = Inflation rate

Simply adjust the equation to calculate the inflation rate;

⇒ h = [(1 + i) / (1 + r)] - 1

OR h = [(1 + .11) / (1 + .079)] - 1 = 2.87%.

Mauro Products distributes a single product, a woven basket whose selling price is $28 per unit and whose variable expense is $2
dsp73

Answer:

1. 2600 units

2. $72,800

3. 2,675 units

4. $74,900

Explanation:

Provided,

Sales price per unit = $28

Variable cost per unit = $20

Thus, Contribution per unit = Sales price - variable cost = $28 - $20 = $8

Contribution as percentage = \frac{8}{28} \times 100 = 28.57

Fixed Cost = $20,800

1. Break even point in unit sales  = \frac{Fixed\ Cost}{Contribution\ per\ unit} = \frac{20,800}{8} = 2,600\ units

2. Break even point in dollars = Break even point in units \times sales price per unit

= 2,600 \times $28 = $72,800

Or straight break even point in dollars = \frac{Fixed\ cost}{Contribution\ percentage} = \frac{20,800}{0.2857} = 72,800\ dollars

3. In case fixed cost increase by $600

New fixed cost = $20,800 + $600 = $21,400

Thus, break even point in units shall be = \frac{21,400}{8} = 2,675\ units

4. Break even point in sales = \frac{21,400}{0.2857} = 74,900\ dollars

Mr. Rational has $27 that he plans to spend purchasing 5 units of good X (priced at $3 per unit) and 6 units of good Y (priced a
Darina [25.2K]

Mr. Rational is a utility maximizer, he should buy less of X and more of Y.

<h3>What do you mean by marginal utility?</h3>
  • In economics, marginal utility refers to the additional pleasure or benefit (utility) a buyer receives by purchasing an additional unit of a good or service.

<h3>What is marginal utility and formula?</h3>
  • The general rule in economics is that marginal utility equals total utility change divided by change in quantity of goods.
  • The equation looks like this Total utility difference divided by amount of commodities difference equals marginal utility.
  • Find the first event's overall utility.

According to the question:

The amount that Mr. Rational is going to spend = $27.

Quantity of good X = 5 units.

Price of good X (Px) = $3 per unit.

Marginal utility of 5th unit of X (MUx) = 30.

Quantity of good Y = 6 units.

Price of good Y (Py) = $2 per unit.

Marginal utility of 6th unit of Y (MUy) = 18.

Now find $\frac{M U x}{P x}=\frac{30}{3}=10$

Now $\frac{M U y}{P y}=\frac{18}{2}=9$

Since the \frac{M U x}{P x}$ is greater than $\frac{M U y}{P y}$.

So, good x will be substituted for y in order to reach the consumer equilibrium.

$\frac{M U x}{P x}=\frac{M U y}{P y}$
