Suppose your company needs $18 million to build a new assembly line. Your target debt-equity ratio is .8. The flotation cost for

new equity is 11 percent, but the flotation cost for debt is only 8 percent. Your boss has decided to fund the project by borrowing money because the flotation costs are lower and the needed funds are relatively small.a.What is your company’s weighted average flotation cost, assuming all equity is raised externally? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)b. What is the true cost of building the new assembly line after taking flotation costs into account? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions, rounded to the nearest whole dollar amount, e.g., 1,234,5667.)

<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>

<u>Calculation of weighted average floatation cost is as follows: </u>

Floatation cost $=\left(\frac{\text { Debt }}{\text { Debt }+\text { Equity }} * \text { cost of the debt }\right)+\left(\frac{\text { Debt }}{\text { Debt }+\text { Equity }} *$ cost of the equity (ke)) \right.

=\left(\frac{.8}{1+0.8} * 8 \%\right)+\left(\frac{8}{1+0.8} * 11 \%\right)

By calculating the above equation, we get = (0.035556) plus (0.048889)

= 0.08444 = 8.44%  (rounded to 2 decimal places)

<u>The amount of money raised is calculated as follows: </u>

Amount raised $*(1 \text { -Floatation cost) }=$ Amount required

\text { Amount raised } *(1-8.44444 \%)=18000000

Amount required = 18000000 divided by 0.91556

= 19660098.7

= 19660099 (rounded off)

Serga [27]

Answer:

The annualy payment for theamortized loan is $6,802.44

Explanation:

First we will find the total loan payment TP for the $20,000 borrowed over the next four years with a annual return of 8%:

TP = $20,000 *(1+8%)^4

TP = $20,000 *(1.08)^4

TP = $20,000 *1.3605 = $27,209.7

The annual payments AN is obtained by dividing the TP into the 4 years:

AN  = $27,209.7 / 4 = $6,802.44

Answer:

reconciliate balance $ 22,388,675‬

Explanation:

bank statement:                18,835

deposits in transit           100,740

                                 22,376,200

outstanding check

  10189                            (56,710)

  10192                            (15,365)

  10193                           (22,650)

  10194                            (12,375)

Adjusted balance:  22,388,675‬

checkbook balance: 22,385,105

      interest earned           4,020

      ATM card fees              (450)

  Adjusted balance:  22,388,675

Notes: For each statement we adjust for the unknown information.

The bank is unaware of the outstanding check and the deposit in transit.  So we adjust for these concepts.

The company has no knowledge of the ffes and interest earned until receiving the bank statement so we must adjust for that amount.

A sharp downturn in the U.S. housing market reduced the income of many who worked in the home construction industry. A Wall Stre
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section.

Explanation:

If the wages of the Hispanics construction worker in America are less then, they will not have near as much money to send home to their relatives back in Mexico.

And if their families do not have as much as it use to be then they will not be able to buy near as much as they used to.

It means that if the construction workers don't get as much money as they used to then, neither they nor their families  will be able to spend as much as they use to which will obviously hurt each of their economies.
