Juanita makes $30 an hour at work. She has to take time off work to purchase her dress, so each hour away from work costs her $3

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Juanita should purchase the suit at the store across town because the total economic cost will be lowest.

Explanation:

three options:

local store 15 minutes away and a price of $114
across town 30 minutes away and a price of $86
neighboring city 1 hour away and a price of $60

Juanita makes $30 per hour at her work, and her purchase decision includes the opportunity cost of lost wages:

total economic cost:

local store = $114 + [1/4 hours x 2 (round trip) x $30] + (1/2 hours x $30 spent shopping) = $144
across town = $86 + [1/2 hours x 2 (round trip) x $30] + (1/2 hours x $30 spent shopping) = $131
neighboring city = $60 + [1 hour x 2 (round trip) x $30] + (1/2 hours x $30 spent shopping) = $135

Juanita should purchase the skirt at the store across town because the total economic cost will be lowest ($131)

Opportunity costs are the benefits lost or extra costs incurred for choosing one activity or investment over another alternative. Economic costs include both accounting costs and opportunity costs.

IceJOKER [234]

Explanation:

The given question cannot be answered as little information is provided. However it shall be an amount if $21,580,000. For, complete analysis we need to understand the current prices and various other variable costs. We know that the contribution margin is the Sale Price (SP) minus the Variable Cost (VC). It is the number of sales per unit that will be available to service fixed expenses and to generate the profit.

Therefore, to determine a more detailed answers more inputs are needed.

Turnbull Co. has a target capital structure of 58% debt, 6% preferred stock, and 36% common equity. It has a before-tax cost of

OLga [1]

Answer:

Turnbull’s weighted average cost of capital (WACC) will be higher by 0.64% if it has to raise additional common equity capital by issuing new common stock instead of raising the funds through retained earnings.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Turnbull Co. has a target capital structure of 58% debt, 6% preferred stock, and 36% common equity. It has a before-tax cost of debt of 8.2%, and its cost of preferred stock is 9.3%. If Turnbull can raise all of its equity capital from retained earnings, its cost of common equity will be 12.4%. However, if it is necessary to raise new common equity, it will carry a cost of 14.2%. If its current tax rate is 40%, how much higher will Turnbull’s weighted average cost of capital (WACC) be if it has to raise additional common equity capital by issuing new common stock instead of raising the funds through retained earnings? (Note: Round your intermediate calculations to two decimal places.)

The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:

Step 1: Calculation of WACC when all of its equity capital is raised from retained earnings

This can be calculated using WACC formula as follows:

WACCR = (WS * CE) + (WP * CP) + (WD * CD * (1 - T)) ………………… (1)

Where;

WACCR = Weighted average cost of capital when all of its equity capital is raised from retained earnings = ?

WS = Weight of common equity = 36%, or 0.36

WP = Weight of preferred stock = 6%, or 0.06

WD = Weight of debt = 58%, or 0.58

CE = Cost of equity = 12.4%, or 0.124

CP = Cost of preferred stock = 9.3%, 0.093

CD = Before-tax cost of debt = 8.2%, or 0.082

T = Tax rate = 40%, or 0.40

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

WACCR = (0.36 * 0.124) + (0.06 * 0.093) + (0.58 * 0.082 * (1 - 0.40))

WACCR = 0.078756, or 7.8756%

Rounding to 2 decimal places, we have:

WACCR = 7.88%

Step 2: Calculation of WACC if it raises new common equity

This can also be calculated using WACC formula as follows:

WACCE = (WS * CE) + (WP * CP) + (WD * CD * (1 - T)) ………………… (2)

Where;

WACCE = Weighted average cost of capital if it raises new common equity = ?

WS = Weight of common equity = 36%, or 0.36

WP = Weight of preferred stock = 6%, or 0.06

WD = Weight of debt = 58%, or 0.58

CE = Cost of equity = 14.2%, or 0.142 (Note: This is the only thing that has changed compared to what we have in Step 1 above.)

CP = Cost of preferred stock = 9.3%, 0.093

CD = Before-tax cost of debt = 8.2%, or 0.082

T = Tax rate = 40%, or 0.40

Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:

WACCE = (0.36 * 0.142) + (0.06 * 0.093) + (0.58 * 0.082 * (1 - 0.40))

WACCE = 0.085236, or 8.5236%

Rounding to 2 decimal places, we have:

WACCE = 8.52%

Step 3: Caculation of how much higher will Turnbull’s weighted average cost of capital (WACC) be if it has to raise additional common equity capital by issuing new common stock instead of raising the funds through retained earnings.

This can be calculated as follows:

Percentage by which WACC is higher = WACCE - WACCR

Percentage by which WACC is higher = 8.52% - 7.88%

Percentage by which WACC is higher = 0.64%

Therefore, Turnbull’s weighted average cost of capital (WACC) will be higher by 0.64% if it has to raise additional common equity capital by issuing new common stock instead of raising the funds through retained earnings.
