Answer:

Cost of common stock = 11.33%

Explanation:

<em>The cost of common stock can be determined using the dividend valuation model.</em>

<em>According to the dividend valuation, the value of a stock is the present value of expected future dividends discounted at the required rate of return</em>.

The model can me modified to determined the cost of equity having flotation cost as follows:

Cost of equity = D(1+r )/P(1-f) + g

d- dividend, p- price of stock , f - flotation cost , - g- growth rate  

Cost of common stock =

D- 2.00, g- 5%, Price net flotation cost = $33.15

Ke = 2.00 × (1.05)/33.15)  + 0.05 × 100

= 11.33%

Cost of common stock = 11.33%

Income Tax at 35%                                  $981,225

Unlevered Net Income                         $1,822,275

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Advertising campaign expenses = $4.13 million

Incremental sales revenue from Mini Mochi Munch = $8.31 million

Next years incremental sales revenue from Mini Mochi Munch = $6.31 million

Incremental sales revenue from other products = $2.38 million each year

Gross profit margin or the Mini Mochi Munch = 35%

Gross profit margin for other products = 25%

Marginal corporate tax rate = 35%

Cost of goods sold:

Year 1:

Mini Mochi Much = 65% (100 - 35%) of sales = 65% * $8.31 m = $5,401,500

Other products = 75% (100 - 25%) of sales = 75% * $2.38 m =   $1,785,000

Total cost of goods sold = $7,186,500

Year 2:

Mini Mochi Much = 65% (100 - 35%) of sales = 65% * $6.31 m = $4,101,500

Other products = 75% (100 - 25%) of sales = 75% * $2.38 m =   $1,785,000

Total cost of goods sold = $5,886,500

b) The company will incur a loss in the first year, which will be recovered by the second year's profit, because advertising expense are not capitalized or spread over the two years.

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

a. Would it be economically efficient for the dentist to buy and put up a shield? Why or why not? By how much would total surplus change?

No, it is not economically efficient for the dentist to buy the shield.

b. Would it be economically efficient for the radio station to buy and put up a shield? Why or why not? By how much would total surplus change?

No, it is not economically efficient for the radio to buy the shield.

c. Would it be economically efficient for the dentist to buy a new drill? Why or why not? By how much would total surplus change?

No, it is not economically efficient for the dentist to buy the drill.

d. Would it be efficient for the radio station to buy the dentist a new drill? Why or why not? By how much would total surplus change?

Yes, it is economically efficient for the radio to buy the dentist a new drill. The Coase Theorem is an economic theory that states that economic conflicts must be solved regardless of who had the initial rights of whatever is on dispute. In this case, the dentist is causing harm to the radio, but he is doing OK. So the radio has a problem, not the dentist. The radio needs to solve its problem, so they should buy the dentist a new drill.

The economic surplus = $10,000 - $6,000 = $4,000, that means that the radio will be $4,000 better.
