The teams are composed of individuals with different personalities but who join their efforts to achieve organizational goals and objectives.

Therefore, it is necessary to have a leadership style that is geared towards the whole of the team, that seeks to engage and respect the individualities of each member of the team but that motivates them to seek common goals. It is also necessary that communication is valued, that all members feel they are a necessary part of the team, so that the information can be passed on properly and also to avoid conflicts that may occur.

Targaryen Corporation has a target capital structure of 65 percent common stock, 5 percent preferred stock, and 30 percent debt.

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

a. What is the company’s WACC?

R_Wacc = 13% (65%) + 5% (5%) + 6% (30%) * (1-0,25) = 10,05%

b. What is the aftertax cost of debt?

The aftertax cost of debt is:

R_Debt : (1 - 0,25) x 6% = 4,50%

Explanation:

The WACC it's defined by the formula :

WACC: E/V*Re + D/V*Rd *(1-0,25)

Re: 13,00% Cost of Common Equity

Re: 5,00% Cost of Preferred STOCK

Re: 6% Cost of Debt

E/V: 65% Percentage of financing that is Common Equity

PS/V: 5% Percentage of financing that is Preferred Stock

DB/V: 30% Percentage of financing that is Debt

Tax: 25% Corporate tax rate

Now we have all of the components to calculate the WACC.

The WACC is:

R_Wacc = 13% (65%) + 5% (5%) + 6% (30%)*(1-0,25) = 10,05%

The aftertax cost of debt is:

R_Debt : (1 - 0,25) x 6% = 4,50%

Suppose that the pre-tax price of gasoline is $1 per gallon. A tax of $0.50 is imposed and is paid by consumers to the governmen

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

$1.25

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

The pre-tax price of gasoline = $1 per gallon

Imposed tax per gallon = $0.50

Now,

The total tax burden on the consumer is $0.50

considering the condition that the consumer tax burden is equal to the producer tax burden

The total tax burden will be divided in equal parts to the consumer and the producer

Thus,

The equal tax burden will be = [ Total tax burden ] ÷ 2

= $0.50 ÷ 2

= $0.25

Hence,

The gross price of gasoline after the tax will be = $1 + $0.25

= $1.25

In 2011, the imaginary nation of Maconia had a population of 8,200 and real GDP of 210,500.

vazorg [7]

Answer:

C. 226,416

Explanation:

Firstly, we find the GDP per person for 2011.

Next, we calculate the 5% GDP per person increase in 2012

Finally, we calculate for GDP in 2012 using available data gotten

So,

Given that

In 2011,

Real GDP = 210,500

Population = 8200

GDP per person for 2011 = 210,500 ÷ 8200

= 25.67 approximately.

In 2012, there was a 5% growth in GDP per person, therefore,

GDP person 5% increase in 2012 = (5÷100) × 25.6707317073

= 0.05 × 25.6707317073

= 1.2835365854

2012 GDP per person = 25.6707317073 + 1.2835

= 26.9542682927

5% increase of 25.6707317073 = 25.6707317073 × 1.05 = 26.9542682927

So, to get the GDP in 2012,

GDP = GDP per person × population

Where GDP per person = 26.9542682927

Population = 8400

Thus,

Real GDP = 26.9542682927 × 8400

= 226,415.8

Approximately = 226,416 to the nearest dollar.
