Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

Average fixed costs is determined by dividing the total fixed costs by the amount of output produced.

For example:

Total fixed cost = $5,000

Number of units initially produced = 100 units

Therefore, the average fixed cost at 100 units is calculated as follows:

\frac{Total\ fixed\ cost}{Ot\ produced}

=\frac{5,000}{100}

= $50 per unit

Now, suppose the number of units produced increases from 100 units to 200 units. Then, the average fixed cost is calculated as follows:=\frac{Total\ fixed\ cost}{Ot\ produced}

=\frac{5,000}{200}

= $25 per unit

Therefore, we can conclude that as the output of a particular firm increases, as a result the average fixed cost decreases.

Fama’s Llamas has a WACC of 9.7 percent. The company’s cost of equity is 12 percent, and its pretax cost of debt is 7.5 percent.
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

0.4766

Explanation:

Given:

WACC = 9.7%

Company’s cost of equity = 12%

Pretax cost of debt = 7.5%

Tax rate = 35%

Now,

WACC

=  Weight × Cost of equity + (1 - weight) × Pretax cost of debt × (1-tax rate)

or

0.097 = weight × 0.12 + ( 1 - weight ) × 0.075 × (1 - 0.35)

or

0.097 = 0.12 × weight + 0.04875 - 0.04875 × weight

or

0.04825 = 0.07125 × weight

or

weight = 0.6772

also,

weight = \frac{\textup{Equity}}{\textup{Debt + Equity}}

or

\frac{\textup{1}}{\textup{weight}}  = \frac{\textup{Debt+equity}}{\textup{Equity}}

or

\frac{1}{0.6772} = \frac{\textup{Debt}}{\textup{Equity}}  + 1

or

1.4766 = \frac{\textup{Debt}}{\textup{Equity}}  + 1

or

\frac{\textup{Debt}}{\textup{Equity}}  = 0.4766

Midyear on July 31st, the Chester Corporation's balance sheet reported:
erastova [34]

Answer:

$76.856 million

Explanation:

As we know that Balance sheet is divided in two portions.

1. Total Assets (Current Assets + Fixed Assets)

2. Total Liabilities and Share Holders' Equity.

and they both should be equal. So we can write from the above information, as:

Total Assets = Total Liabilities + Total Common Stock + Retained Earnings

N.B. We are excluding Cash from our calculation cause we assume that Cash is already been included in Total Assets.

Hence, by putting the values in above equation we can find our Retained Earnings as:

Retained Earnings + $128.230 million + $6.350 million = $211.436 million

Retained Earnings + $134.58 million = $211.436 million

Retained Earnings = $211.436 million - $134.58 million

Retained Earnings = $76.856 million

Family​ Corporation, a corporation controlled by​ Buddy's family, redeems all of​ Buddy's stock. For the redemption to be treate
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

C. Buddy cannot be a creditor of the corporation after the redemption.

Explanation:

"A stock redemption that terminates a shareholder’s entire stock ownership in a corporation will qualify for sale or exchange treatment under § 302(b)(3). The attribution rules generally apply in determining whether the shareholder’s stock ownership has been completely terminated. However, the family attribution rules do not apply to a complete termination redemption if the following conditions are met:

   The former shareholder has no interest, other than that of a creditor, in the corporation for at least 10 years after the redemption (including an interest as an officer, director, or employee).

   The former shareholder files an agreement to notify the IRS of any prohibited interest acquired within the 10-year period and to retain all necessary records pertaining to the redemption during this time period."

Reference: South-Western, Thomson. “Chapter 5.” To Qualify for Sale or Exchange Treatment, a Stock Redemption Generally Must Result in a Substantial Reduction in a Shareholde, 2005,

Knowledge Check 01 Addison Corporation is considering the purchase of equipment that would increase sales revenues by $250,000 p
Flauer [41]

Answer:

C. 25.5%

Explanation:

Net operating cashflow = (250,000 - 100,000) = 150,000; This is a recurring cashflow; the PMT

Cost of equipment; the PV = 400,000

Next, calculate the rate of return  using Net operating cashflow per year and the equipment cost. You can do this with a financial calculator;

N =5

PMT = 150,000

FV = 0

PV = -400,000

then CPT I/Y = 25.41%

Therefore the return is closest to 25.5%
