Answer:

WACC= 17.95%

Explanation:

Weighted average cost of capital is the average cost of all of the long-term types of finance used by a company weighted according to the that amount of finance used in relation to the total pool of fund.

It is calculated using the formula below:

WACC = (We×Ke)  +  (Wd×Kd)

Ke-cost of equity- 22%

We- equity weight- 100% - 45% = 55%

Kd-After tax cost of debt-10.3%

Wd- 45%

After tax cost of debt = Before tax ×× (1- tax rate)

After tax cost of debt = 13%× (1-0.21) = 10.3%

Cost of equity = 22%

WACC =(0.55× 22%) + (0.45× 13%)=17.95%

WACC= 17.95%

AlexFokin [52]

The most important factor in the work process or industry is to retain the interest of the employee. And to retain them, their salary or profit must be adjusted to the best value. Unless the employee does not do his job properly, employees must receive bonuses or benefits to ensure them to stay in the company. It will actually make them stay longer, make them feel important and reduce costs for hiring new employees.

MAVERICK [17]

In the context of time-based competition,  "build a better mousetrap and the world will beat a path to your door." could be interpreted as "those who make better innovations would obtain the most opportunities to obtain profit in the market"

Innovations only offers advantages in the competition because it offer different options for consumers that exclusively belong to US. But innovation is NOT THE ONLY factors for the product's success. There are other factors that can influence the success such as marketing strategies, condition of the economy

La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

Desafortunadamente, no especificas a qué país te refieres, ya que cada país tiene un régimen fiscal distinto, y los comercios están obligados a declarar impuestos de acuerdo a la legislación vigente en cada país.

Para poder responder a tus preguntas, lo haremos en términos generales ya que no mencionas cuál es tu país.

¿Qué es la factura?

La factura es el comprobante oficial al que obliga el gobierno, a través de la Secretaría de Hacienda y el Servicio de Administración Tributaria (SAT).  La factura es el comprobante oficial que respalda la compra-venta de un artículo, producto o servicio, y donde se demuestra que se cobro el impuesto por la adquisición de la mercancía.

¿Qué es la Nota de venta?

La nota de venta es un comprobante de control interno que no tiene validez oficial para comprobar el consumo y el cargo del impuesto. La nota de venta sólo la ampara el mismo negocio que la elaboró, el sistema de administración tributario.

¿En que momento se usa la factura?

La factura se usa cuando se requiere elaborar un comprobante oficial que posteriormente pueda ser usado en la declaración mensual de impuestos o en la declaración anual, para que se puedan deducir los impuestos retenidos.

¿En que momento se usa la nota de venta?

Cuando sólo se quiere entregar un comprobante de compra, sin aplicar el impuesto al valor agregado.

¿Por qué el bazar del barrio no da factura ni nota de venta?

Porque probablemente es un pequeño comercio, y no está obligado a facturar. Sólo a dar comprobantes. Los pequeños comercios tributan o pagan impuestos de manera diferente. Son considerados  pequeños contribuyentes y por lo regular se les asigna una cuota fija, siempre y cuando no rebasen una cantidad establecida por la autoridad hacendaria.

Platicando con el dueño de la papelería del barrio, él me comenta que el municipio sólo le pido una licencia de uso de suelo para que pueda operar su negocio. Esa licencia de funcionamiento tiene un costo único que debe ser renovad anualmente. El es pequeño comerciante y debe pagar una cuota fija de manera trimestral.
