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)

Quarry Corp. has the following costs related to a mine it acquired this year. Cost of land and natural resource rights $200,000
frozen [14]

Answer:

$375,000

Explanation:

The computation of the amount included in the natural resource is shown below:

= Cost of land & natural resource rights + cost of extraction during year + equipment used for mining + exploration & drilling cost

= $200,000 + $35,000 + $100,000 + $40,000

= $375,000

Hence, all the cost is inlcuded for natural resource except asset retirement obligation for restoring the land as this is not relevant so we ignored it

In a certain economy, the components of planned spending are given by:
viktelen [127]

Answer:

B) 790-700r

Explanation:

Aggregate Expenditure is the expenditure by all the sectors of economy. By Households = Consumption (C), By Firms = Investment (I), By government = Govt spending (G) & tax leakages (T), By Rest world = Next Exports (NX).

Autonomous Expenditure is the level of expenditure in economy, which doesn't depend on level of Income = Y.

AE = C + I + G + NX

[500 + 0.8 (Y-150) - 300r] + [200 - 400r] + 200 + 10

500 + 0.8Y - 120 - 300r + 200 - 400r + 210

500 - 120 + 200 + 210 - 300r - 400r + 0.8y  

790 - 700r + 0.8y

As, it can be seen that the part of AE = '790 - 700r', excluding '0.8y' : is not dependent on Income Y. So, it is Autonomous Expenditure

The buyer notifies the seller in writing of a termination of the contract under the Loan Objection Deadline. What happens to the
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

The earnest money must be returned to the buyer.

Explanation:

The loan objection deadline sets a specific by which the buyer must present a written notification to the seller stating that he/she will not be able to purchase the property due to problems related to obtaining a mortgage loan (or really any other reason, since only the buyer knows about his/her loan status). After this date, if the buyer cannot secure the mortgage loan and finish the purchase, the earnest money will be lost and must be given to the seller.

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Forward excahnge rate/spot exchange rate = (1+rh)/(1+rf)

rh - periodic interest rate in the home currency

rf - periodic interest rate in the foreign currency

Forward/90 = [1+1%*180/360]/[1+2%*180/360]

Forward = 1.005/1.01 * 90 = 89.55

Forward rate is 89.55 yen/$
