Answer:
a.
WACC = 0.07961 or 7.961% rounded off to 7.96%
b.
After tax cost of debt = 0.0474 or 4.74%
Explanation:
a.
The weighted average cost of capital or WACC is the cost of a firm's capital structure. To calculate the WACC, we multiply the weight of each component of the capital structure by the cost of that component. The components of capital structure can be one or all of the following namely debt, preferred stock and common stock.
The formula for WACC is,
WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate) + wP * rP + wE * rE
Where,
- w represents the weight of each component
- r represents the cost of each component
- D, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and common stock respectively
WACC = 0.15 * 0.06 * (1 - 0.21) + 0.1 * 0.05 + 0.75 * 0.09
WACC = 0.07961 or 7.961% rounded off to 7.96%
b.
The after tax cost of debt is calculated by multiplying the cost of debt by (1 - tax rate) to adjust for the tax advantage provided by debt as interest payments on debt are tax deductible.
After tax cost of debt = 0.06 * (1 - 0.21)
After tax cost of debt = 0.0474 or 4.74%
Answer:
The lower prices create more demand for product from the nation with a reduction in the money supply, which leads to International Balance of Statement Differences
Explanation:
Gold standard is a monetary stem that links the value of paper money to gold.This system were used to balance income differences between countries. Countries with a balance of payments surplus would receive gold inflows, while countries in deficit would experience an outflow of gold
Here, Gold is the standard for International balance of payments differences.
Under the gold standard, gold flows reduce the money supply in one nation when another nation experiences a trade surplus.
The nation with a trade surplus has a swell in the money supply, which leads to price increases. At the same time, the nation with a reduction in the money supply will cause prices to fall.
The lower prices create more demand for product from the nation with a reduction in the money supply, which leads to International Balance of Statement Differences.
