Answer:

b. The same as it would have been if the original payment had been debited initially to an expense account

Explanation:

We can use an example to explain this:

original journal entry to record a 3 year insurance policy on January 1 is:

Dr Prepaid insurance 3,600

    Cr Cash 3,600

Adjusting entry on December 31

Dr Insurance expense 1,200

    Cr Prepaid insurance 1,200

balance of prepaid insurance = $3,600 - $1,200 = $2,400

If instead of recording prepaid insurance on January 1, you recorded insurance expense:

Dr Insurance expense 3,600

    Cr Cash 3,600

Adjusting entry on December 31

Dr Prepaid insurance 2,400

    Cr Insurance expense 2,400

balance of prepaid insurance = $2,400

Complete question:

WACC Estimation

On January 1, the total market value of the Tysseland Company was $60 million. During the year, the company plans to raise and invest $20 million in new projects. The firm's present market value capital structure, here below, is considered to be optimal. There is no short-term debt.

Debt $30,000,000

Common equity 30,000,000

Total capital $60,000,000

 New bonds will have an 7% coupon rate, and they will be sold at par. Common stock is currently selling at $30 a share. The stockholders' required rate of return is estimated to be 12%, consisting of a dividend yield of 4% and an expected constant growth rate of 8%. (The next expected dividend is $1.20, so the dividend yield is $1.20/$30 = 4%.) The marginal tax rate is 40%.

1. In order to maintain the present capital structure, how much of the new investment must be financed by common equity? Enter your answer in dollars. For example, $1.2 million should be entered as $1200000.

$  

2. Assuming there is sufficient cash flow for Tysseland to maintain its target capital structure without issuing additional shares of equity, what is its WACC? Round your answer to two decimal places.

%

3. Suppose now that there is not enough internal cash flow and the firm must issue new shares of stock. Qualitatively speaking, what will happen to the WACC? No numbers are required to answer this question.

I. rs will increase and the WACC will decrease due to the flotation costs of new equity.

II. rs will decrease and the WACC will increase due to the flotation costs of new equity.

III. rs and the WACC will not be affected by flotation costs of new equity.

IV. rs and the WACC will increase due to the flotation costs of new equity.

V. rs and the WACC will decrease due to the flotation costs of new equity.

-Select- one above IIIIIIIVV

Answer:

The answer is III.

rs and the WACC will increase due to the flotation costs of new equity.

Solution:

It is given that,

Equity is $30,000,000.

Debt is $30,000,000.

The amount of fund raised is $20,000,000.

The formula to calculate weight of equity is given below:

Weight of equity = \frac{Equity}{Equity+Debt}

Substitute $30,000,000 for equity and $30,000,000 for debt in the formula,

Weight of equity = \frac{30,000,000}{30,000,000 + 30,000,000}

                         = 50%

Since weight of equity is 50% and to maintain this capital structure, company should finance the 50% of funds

Amount financed by common equity = $20,000,000 * 50%

                                                             =  $10,000,000
