Answer:

WACC = 9.7%

Explanation:

First lets calculate CAPM to identify the return on equity.

CAPM = Risk free rate + Beta(Market Premium)

CAPM = 4 + 1(8) = 12%

WACC

= weight of equity * return on equity + weight of debt * return on debt * (1 - tax)

This gives,

=(12/12+4) * 0.12 + [(4/12+4) * 0.04 * (1 - 0.30)]

WACC = 0.09 + 0.007 = 9.7%

Hope that helps.

Answer: A) 9.7%

Explanation:

Bank debt cost= bank rate debt

Cost equity = free risk rate + equity beta × market risk premium.

Weight in equity = outstanding equity / (outstanding equity + debt)

Weight in debt = 1 - weight in equity.

WACC = weight in equity × cost of equity + weight in debt × cost of debt × (1 - tax rate)

Cost of equity = 0.04 + 1 × 0.08= 0.12

weight in equity= 12 / (4 + 12) = 0.75 weight in debt = 1 - 0.75 = 0.25

WACC= 0.75 × 0.12 + 0.25 × 0.04 × (1 - 0.30) = 0.097 * 100 = 9.7%

In each succeeding payment on an installment note:
Serggg [28]

Answer:

In each succeeding payment on an installment note:

b. The amount that goes to interest expense decreases.

Explanation:

With each installment settled, the principal amount will continue to reduce and as a result, the amount that will be recognized as interest expense will also decrease.  This is because the interest expense is calculated based on the principal amount, which is decreasing with each installment.  The interest expense for a previous period will not be the same for the future period.
