Accessory Industries has 2 million shares of common stock outstanding, 1 million shares of preferred stock outstanding, and 100

thousand bonds. If the common shares are selling for $22 per share, the preferred shares are selling for $10.50 per share, and the bonds are selling for 96 percent of par ($1,000), what would be the weights used in the calculation of Accessory's WACC for common stock, preferred stock, and bonds, respectively

Answer:

Common Stock = 29.2%

Preferred Stock = 7%

Bonds = 63.8%

Explanation:

Weights used in the WACC are based on the market value of the each capital option. Market value can be calculated by multiplying the numbers of shares or bonds with respective market value of each. Dividing these market values by the total capital will result in the weight of each capital.

Market Value

Common stock = Numbers of common stock shares x market value of each share = 2,000,000 x $22 = $44,000,000

Preferred stock = Numbers of common stock shares x market value of each share =1,000,000 x $10.5 = $10,500,000

Bond = Numbers of Bonds x market value of Bond =100,000 x ( $1,000 x 96% ) = $96,000,000

Weights = Market value  / Total Capital

Total Capital = $44,000,000 + $10,500,000 + $96,000,000 = $150,500,000

Common Stock = $44,000,000 / $150,500,000 = 0.292 = 29.2%

Preferred Stock = $10,500,000 / $150,500,000 = 0.07 = 7%

Bonds = $96,000,000 / $150,500,000 = 0.638 = 63.8%

Answer:

Equity is 0.29

Debt is 0.64

Preferred stock 0.07

Explanation:

WACC=Ke*E/V+Kd*D/V*(1-t)*Kp*P/V

However, the requirements of the question is weights of the bonds,equity and preferred stock which are E/V,D/V and P/V respectively

E is the value of equity=2,000,000*$22=$44,000,000

D is the value of debt =100,000*$1000*96%=$96,000,000

P is the value of prefered stock=1,000,000*$10.50=$10,500,000

Total firm's finance(V)                                                   $150,500,000

E/V=$44,000,0000/$150,500,000=0.29

D/V=$96,000,0000/$150,500,000=0.64

p/v=$10,500,000/$150,500,000=0.07

Who is responsible for withholding the employees income tax?​
julia-pushkina [17]
An employer's federal payroll tax responsibilities include withholding from an employee's compensation and paying an employer's contribution for Social Security and Medicare taxes under the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA).

Employers have numerous payroll tax withholding and payment obligations. Of the utmost importance is the proper payment of what are commonly known as FICA taxes. FICA taxes are somewhat unique in that there is required withholding from an employee's wages as well as an employer's portion of the taxes that must be paid.

The Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) is the federal law requiring you to withhold three separate taxes from the wages you pay your employees. FICA is comprised of the following taxes:

6.2 percent Social Security tax;
1.45 percent Medicare tax (the “regular” Medicare tax); and
Since 2013, a 0.9 percent Medicare surtax when the employee earns over $200,000.
You must withhold these amounts from an employee's wages.

The law also requires you to pay the employer's portion of two of these taxes:

6.2 percent Social Security tax
1.45 percent Medicare tax (the “regular” Medicare tax).
As you can see, the employer’s portion for the Social security tax and the regular Medicare tax is the same amount that you're required to withhold from your employees' wages. (Different rules apply for employees who receive tips.) There is no employer portion for the 0.9 percent Medicare surtax on high-earning employees.

In other words, you withhold a 6.2 percent Social Security tax from your employee’s wages and you pay an additional 6.2 percent as your employer share of the tax (6.2 employee portion + 6.2 employer portion = 12.4 percent total). Also, you withhold a 1.45 percent Medicare tax from your employee’s wages and you pay an additional 1.45 percent as your employer share (1.45 employee portion + 1.45 employer portion = 2.9 percent total). The total of all four portions is 15.3 percent (6.2 percent employee portion of Social Security + 6.2 percent employer portion of Social Security + 1.45 percent employee portion of Medicare + 1.45 percent employer portion of Medicare = 15.3 percent).

Unlike the other FICA taxes, the 0.9 percent Medicare surtax is imposed on the employee portion only. There is no employer match for the Medicare surtax (also called the Additional Medicare Tax). You withhold this 0.9 percent tax from employee wages and you do not pay an employer’s portion. Also, unlike the other FICA taxes, you withhold the 0.9 percent Medicare surtax only to the extent that wages paid to an employee exceed $200,000 in a calendar year. You begin withholding the surtax in the pay period in which you pay wages in excess of this $200,000 “floor” to an employee and you continue to withhold it each pay period until the end of the calendar year.

You need a 35-year, fixed-rate mortgage to buy a new home for $340,000. Your mortgage bank will lend you the money at an APR of
grin007 [14]

Answer: $338712.36

Explanation:

Given the following :

APR = 6.35% = 0.0635

Monthly payment = $1800

Cost of home = $340,000

Period (t) = 420

Monthly rate = 0.0635 / 12

Amount paid on loan = PV of monthly payment :

PMT(1 - (1 / (1 + r)^t)) / r

1800[(1 - (1 / (1 + 0.0635/12)^420)) / r]

1800[ (1 - (1 /9.1764488)) / r

1800[ 1 - 0.1089746] / (0.0635 / 12)

1800 [168.38275]

= $303088.95

Hence, amount yet to pay :

$340,000 - $303088.95 = $36911.05

Hence, balloon payment :

36911.05( 1 + r)^t

36911.05(1 + 0.0635/12)^420

36911.05(1 + 0.0052916)^420

36911.05(1.0052916)^420

36911.05 × 9.1764488

= $338712.36

Leto [7]

Answer:

Note: <em>The organized question is attached</em>

d. Net income = Income from operating - Other expenses and losses

Net income = $15,000 - $4,000

Net income = $11.000

f. Gross profit - Sales - Cost of goods sold

$38,000 = $95,000 - Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold = $95,000 - $38,000

Cost of goods sold = $57,000

h. Income from operations = Net income - Other expenses and losses

Income from operations = $11,000 + $7,000

Income from operations = $18,000

g. Income from operations = Gross profit - Operating expenses

$18,000 = $38,000 - Operating expenses

Operating expenses = $38,000 - $18,000

Operating expenses = $20,000

Suppose the price of gasoline decreases from $4.20 to $2.00, and in response quantity demanded increases from 10600 to 11200. Us
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

0.079

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand using midpoint formula can be calculated as follows

Formula

Elasticity of demand = (change in quantity/average quantity)/(change in price/average price)

Calculation

Elasticity of demand = (600/10,900)/(-2.1/3.05)

Elasticity of demand =-0.055 / -0.688

Elasticity of demand =-0.079

working

Change in price (2-4.1) = -2.1  

Average price (2+4.1)/2=3.05

Change in quantity (11,200-10600) = 600

average quantity (11,200+10,600)/2 = 10,900

 

The elasticity of demand is inelastic as the elasticity is below 1.
