Westford Corporation has $185 million dollars of interest-bearing debt outstanding at the end of fiscal 2014 year. In addition,
Ratling [72]

Answer:

B) 9.1%

Explanation:

Cost of debt is the interest rate paid by a company due to borrowing money; i.e  debt from investors.

$185million in debt is the face value of debt that Westford Corporation had and the $26 million dollars of interest expense is the cost of the debt in dollars;

First, find pretax cost of debt ;

Pretax cost of debt = (Interest expense / Face value of debt )*100

= (26,000,000/ 185,000,000 )*100

=0.1405 *100

= 14.05%

Next, use pretax cost of debt to find after-tax cost of debt;

After-tax cost of debt = Pretax cost of debt (1-tax)

= 14.05% *(1-0.35)

= 9.13%

Therefore, Westford's cost of debt capital is 9.1%

polet [3.4K]

Answer: $1,750

Explanation:

Incurring a health insurance cost of $5,000 or increasing salaries by $5,000 will have the same effect on the taxes because they will both be removed from the income before the taxes are calculated.

The reduction in tax in either case is:

= Expense * Tax rate

= 5,000 * 35%

= $1,750
