Answer:

$52,435.00

Explanation:

After 3 years the future value of 100,000 at 6 percent will be

FV = PV × (1+r)n

=FV = 100,000 x (1 +0.06)3

FV = 100,000 x 1.191016

FV = 119, 101.60

The interest will be 119, 101.60 - 100,000

=19,101.60

The depreciation over 9 year period, per year will be

=1/9  x 100,000

=11, 111.11  per year

3 year depreciation = 33,333.33( 11,111.11 x 3)

The investment must generate at least

19,101.60 + 33,333.33

=$52,434.93

=$52,435.00

The company cost of capital for a firm with a 60/30/10 debt/common/preferred split, 8% cost of debt, 15% cost of equity, preferr
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

b. 8.82%

Explanation:

WACC = Cost of equity x Weight of equity + Cost of Preferred Stock x Weight of Preferred Stock + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt

Cost of Preferred Stock calculation :

Cost of Preferred Stock = Expected dividend / Market Price x 100

                                        = $6 / $50 x 100

                                        = 12 %

After tax cost of debt calculation :

After tax cost of debt = Interest x (1 - tax rate)

                                    = 8 % x (1 - 0.35)

                                    = 5.20 %

therefore,

WACC = 15% x 30 % + 12 % x 10 %+ 5.20 % x 60 %

           = 8.82 %

Key comparative figures for Apple and Google follow.
kow [346]

Answer:

1. <u>Apple</u>

Current year Days sales uncollected = Account receivables/Net sales * 365

= 15754 / 215639 * 365 = 27 days

= 16849 / 233715 * 365 = 26 days

<u>Google</u>

Current year Days sales uncollected = Account receivables/Net sales * 365

= 14137 / 90272 * 365 = 57 days

Prior years Days sales uncollected = Account receivables/Net sales * 365

= 11556 / 74989 * 365 = 56 days

2. Base on the computation above, Apple had more success collecting receivables.

Suppose an economy’s entire output is cars. in year 1, all manufacturers produce cars at $15,000 each; the real gdp is $300,000.
adelina 88 [10]
Formula for the Real GDP:
RGDP = Quantity in the current year x Price of the output in the base year
The base year should be the 1st year:
RGDP 1 = $300,000,  P 1 = $15,000
Q 1st = $300,000 : $15,000 = 20 cars
In the 2nd year we also have: Q 2nd = 20,produced at $16,000 each.
The Nominal GDP = 20 x $16,000 = $320,000 ( market value )
But the Real GDP = 20 x $15,000 = $300,000.
Answer: The real GDP in the year 2 is $300,000.

Amy Corporation, which applies manufacturing overhead on the basis of direct labor hours, has provided the following data for it
mestny [16]

Answer:

$259,448

Explanation:

Estimated manufacturing overhead $264,040

Estimated direct labor hours 2,300

predetermined overhead rate = $114.80 per labor hour

Actual manufacturing overhead $258,000

Actual direct labor hours 2,260

actual overhead rate = $114.16

applied overhead for the year = actual direct labor hours x predetermined overhead rate = 2,260 hours x $114.80 = $259,448 overapplied ($259,448 ˃ $258,000)
