Answer:
WACC = 0.08085 or 8.085% rounded off to 8.09%
Option c is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure that can contain one or more of the following components, namely debt, preferred stock and common equity. The formula to calculate the WACC is as follows,
WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate) + wP * rP + wE * rE
Where,
- w represents the weight of each component
- D, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and common equity respectively
- r represents the cost of each component
We first need to calculate the weight of each stock. We know the basic accounting equation is,
Assets = Debt + Equity
We know the debt to equity ratio is 3. Then total assets will be,
Assets = 3 + 1
Assets = 4
Using the CAPM equation, we can calculate the cost of equity.
r = risk free rate + Beta * Market risk premium
r = 0.03 + 1.5 * 0.09
r = 0.165 or 16.5%
WACC = 3/4 * 0.08 * (1 - 0.34) + 1/4 * 0.165
WACC = 0.08085 or 8.085% rounded off to 8.09%
Answer:
A) November 30
Explanation:
Based on accrual principle of accounting, revenue is recognized when it is earned and not necessarily when cash is received.
Revenue is said to be earned when the obligation of the delivery of service or goods sold has been met.
As such, where a company accepts a customer's order on November 30 and immediately delivers the goods to the customer, revenue is said to be earned (and will be recognized ) on the day of delivery.
