ew stock to raise new equity, it estimates that its WACC will riseto 10.8 percent.

D 1,200,000 11.0

E 500,000 10.7

Answer:

Projects E,F and G should NOT be considered.

Optimal Capital  is $5,750,000

Explanation:

The accept-or-reject rule, using the IRR method, is to acceptthe project if its Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is higher than theWeighted Average Cost of Capital(k) [r>k]. The project shall berejected if its internal rate of return is e lower than theWeighted Average Cost of Capital cost of (r<k)

                                 Accept if        r>k

                                 Reject if         r<k

                                   Mayaccept if r = k

If the Weighted Average Cost of Capitl (WACC) is less than IRRrate, then the project has positive NPV; if it is equal to IRR, theproject has a Zero NPV, and if it is greater than the IRR, theproject has negative NPV.

The projects should be accepted as the rate of return on theproject is higher than the WACC(10.8%) which means that theprojects will be profitable as the returns are higher than the costof the project (capital).  Considering this projects E,F and G should NOT be considered.

And considering the sizes the Optimal Capital  is $5,750,000 (the addition of sizes of all projects)

klasskru [66]

Answer:

A. $54

B. 55.62

C. $70.46

Explanation:

The formula for calculating compound interest is

FV = P (1 + r ) ^n

FV = Future value

P = Present value

R = interest rate

N = number of years

A. $1,800 (1.03) = $1854

Interest rate = $1854 -$1,800 = $54

B. $1,800 (1.03)^2 = $1,909.62

Interest rate = $1,909.62 - $1854 = $55.62

C. $1,800 (1.03)^10 = $2,419.05

To service the interest rate, we have to determine the future value in year 9

$1,800 (1.03)^9 = $2,348.59

Interest rate = $2,419.05 - $2,348.59 = $70.46
