Answer:

14.88%

Explanation:

Market value of common stock outstanding = 220,000 * $27 = $5,940,000

Market value of preferred stock = 25,000 * $41 = $1,025,000

Market value of bond = $550,000 * 101.2% = $556,600  

Wayco's total financing market value = $5,940,000 + $1,025,000 + $556,600 = $7,521,600

Weighted average cost of capital = [($5,940,000 / $7,521,600) * 16.8%] + [($1,025,000 / $7,521,600) * 9.1%] + [($556,600 / $7,521,600) * 7.6% * (1 - 34%)] = 0.1488, or 14.88%

The Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission must define the relevant market when determining whether to allow a m
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": a price increase results in higher​ profits; otherwise, the market is too narrow.

Explanation:

When firms are interested in acquisitions or mergers they have to determine if the target company is part of a relevant market. The term refers to the competitive conditions that offer the economy where the target company is located. The relevant market also considers the type of product or service the target company offers.

<em>Relevant markets optimal for mergers are those where an increase in prices generates more revenue for firms. If there are too many competitors offering undifferentiated products, the market will not allow organizations to profit from price increases. Those markets, then, are too narrow.</em>

Infinity Corporation purchased equipment with a 10-year useful life and zero residual value for $10,000. At the end of the fifth
sesenic [268]

Answer:

a capital gain of $1,000.

Explanation:

Given,

The cost price of Equipment = $10,000

Useful life of the equipment = 10 years

Residual value = $0

Depreciation (Straight-line method) = Cost price/useful life

Depreciation (Straight-line method) = $10,000/10 = $1,000

Since, it is a straight line method, the depreciation will remain same each year. Therefore, at the end of the fifth year, the depreciation of equipment = $1,000 x 5 = $5,000

At the end of the fifth year,

The book value of the equipment= Equipment - Accumulate depreciation= $(10,000 - 5,000) = $5,000

If the company sales the equipment after the end of the fifth year,

there will be a capital gain.

Capital Gain of equipment = Sales price of equipment - book value of equipment

Capital Gain of equipment = $6,000 - 5,000 = $1,000. The journal entry will be -

Cash/Bank                              Debit       $6,000

Accumulated Depreciation   Debit       $5,000

Gain on sale of equipment                  Credit       $1,000

Equipment                                            Credit      $10,000
