Answer:

CYCLONE COMPANY

a.                                                          Value                   r               Harsh total

      Interest bearing debt                   $54,000,000     0.03969    2,143,260

    Common share(3,800,000*$45.60)<u>173,280,000</u>   0.0972      <u>16,842,816</u>

                                                          <u>   227,280,000</u>                        <u>18,986,076</u>

Weighted average cost of capital =  18,986,076/227,280,000 =

                                                       = 0.0835 = 8.35%

r for debt =  6.30%*( 1 - 0.37)  = 3.969% = 0.03969

b.  cost of equity  =   D/P   =   $2/$45.60 = 0.0439 =  4.49%

c.     D1  = D(1+g)

     $2.70 =  $2(1 + g)

      1+g  =  $2.70/$2

     1 + g = 1.35

    g = 1.35 - 1  =  0.35

    g =  35%

You are considering two mutually exclusive projects. Project A costs $3.6 million, has a required return of 14.5 percent, and an
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Neither

Explanation:

The internal rate of return is a capital budgeting method that is used to determine the profitability of a project.

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after-tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested

The decision rule when using the internal rate of return is to undertake the project if the internal rate of return is greater than the required return of the project. If this is not met, the project should be rejected.

If choosing between multiple projects, the decision rule is to choose the projects with the highest internal rate of return. This is because that project would be the most profitable.

Neither of the project should be selected because the IRR of both projects is less than their required returns

Hull Company’s record of transactions concerning part X for the month of April was as follows.
olga55 [171]

Answer:1. $7720  

2. $7945

3. $7758

Explanation: 1. First in First out method which means the first inventory to be purchased by company will be the first to be sold.  

Total cost of Sales   = Total number of units Sold * Total Cost of inventory sold    

                                  = 100units*$5+ 300units*$5.30+ 200units*$5.35 + 450units*$5.60

                                   =$7720

Total units sold=1450  we started from first inventory which was the balance of inventory of 100 units downwards up to the 1450th unit sold that was purchased on the 26th of April by the company.

2. Last in first out method is where the last bought inventory is sold first.

Total cost of sales= Total number of units sold * Total cost of units sold =200units$*5.80+ 600units*$5.60+ 200units*$5.35+300units*$5.30+150units*$5.1

=$7945

Total units sold still 1450 but we calculated the cost from the last purchased unit from 30th April to the 1450th unit sold which was on the 12th of April.

3. Average Cost = (Sum of all costs/Total number of costs)* total units sold

                     = (($5+$5.1+$5.3+$5.35+$5.6+$5.8)/6)* 1450

=$7769.58
