Answer:

$22,300

Explanation:

Assuming that the net income that is stated here was after the payment of all debt obligations (e interest payment and preference share dividends) then this is all income that belongs to shareholders. This income can either be distributed as dividends or retained in the business  for future projects and would increase the value of equity in the balance sheet.

Out of the $30,300 net income, if only $8,000 was retained this year then the implication is that the difference between $30,300 and $8,000 was payed out as dividends.

Dividends paid =$30,300-$8,000 = $22,800

Q 4.35: McGinnis Construction is a cash-basis company with a fiscal year-end of June 30. McGinnis’ employees earn a normal weekl
hjlf

Answer: Understatement, $30,900

Explanation:

There will be an UNDERSTATEMENT of McGinnis' net income for the most recent fiscal year of $30,900.

The Understatement arises because as of year end which is June 30th, McGinnis were not paid for their services that cost $40,900 and instead will only be paid on the 8th of the next month so it was not accounted for in the net income.

The reason the net income understatement is $30,900 and not $40,900 is because McGinnis will still have to account for the payment to it's employees. If in a five day week they earn $12,500, that would mean that they earn $2,500 a day (12,500/5). Seeing as June ended on a Thursday, that is a 4 day week which means $2,500*4= $10,000.

That $10,000 will reduce the net income by that amount.

The net effect is a $30,900 UNDERSTATEMENT.

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%

In 2010, Norbert Incorporated bought a new tooling machine for $45,000. Norbert estimated that the machine had a useful life of
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Norbert should record at 2020 depreciation expense of $2,700 for the machine

Explanation:

The depreciable base can be calculated as follows;

depreciable base=acquisition cost-salvage value

where;

acquisition cost=$45,000

salvage value=$0

replacing;

depreciable base=45,000-0=$45,000

Annual depreciation expense=depreciable base/useful life

annual depreciation expense=45,000/15=$3,000

accumulated depreciation after 10 years=3,000×10=$30,000

New net book value=acquisition cost-accumulated depreciation+overhaul cost

New machine value=(45,000-30,000+12,000)=$27,000

New depreciation base=new machine value-salvage value

where;

new machine value=$27,000

salvage value=$0

replacing;

New depreciation base=27,000-0=$27,000

New Annual depreciation expense=new depreciation base/useful life

where;

new depreciation base=$27,000

useful life=5+5=10 years

replacing;

New Annual depreciation expense=27,000/10=$2,700

Norbert should record at 2020 depreciation expense of $2,700 for the machine
