Answer:
WACC = 0.18 or 18%
Option b is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure that can contain one or more of the following components, namely debt, preferred stock and common equity. The formula to calculate the WACC is as follows,
WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate) + wP * rP + wE * rE
Where,
- w represents the weight of each component
- D, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and common equity respectively
- r represents the cost of each component
- rD * (1-tax rate) represents the after tax cost of debt
WACC = 0.2 * 0.16 + 0.8 * 0.185
WACC = 0.18 or 18%

Answer:
The correct answer is $302.40.
Explanation:
According to the scenario, the computation can be done as:
To calculate firms' earning first we less cost of goods and total operating expenses from sales revenue:
= $3,060 - $1,800 - 600
= $660
Now we deduct the interest expense, then
= $660 - $126
= $534
Now we deduct tax rate, then
= $534 × $213.60 ( $534× 40%)
= $320.40
Now we finally deduct the dividends to get the firm's earning to common shareholder's, then
= $320.40 - 18
= $302.40
Hence, the firm's earning to common shareholder's is $302.40.
Answer: Companies in perfect competition do not usually apply "socially conscious" practices because their cost-benefit relationship does not justify it.
Generally, the administration of an oligopolistic company will carry out "socially conscious" practices, because this differentiation between the other companies would lead to higher than normal profits.
Answer:
$6,000
Explanation:
A deductible is the amount Conor has to pay before his medical bills and prescriptions start getting coverage from his insurance.
Step 1: 10,000 - 2,000 = 8,000
A co-pay is a fixed amount the insured has to pay for certain medical services.
Step 2: 20% of 8,000 or 0.20 times 8,000 = 1,600
Step 3: add $2,000 (the deductible you have to pay) and $1,600 (the co-pay)
Total amount that Conor will have to pay for the hospital: $3,600
