For an auto insurance company, the average cost of collision claims is $500 per year for careful drivers and $3000 per year for

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

option (c) $875 per year

Explanation:

Given;

Average cost of collision claims for careful drivers = $500 per year

Average cost of collision claims for for poor drivers = $3000 per year

Poor drivers known by the company = 15%

thus,

Careful drivers = (100% - 15%) = 85%

Therefore,

Insurance company's breakeven price for the collision insurance

= (Poor drivers known × Average cost of collision for poor drivers ) +( Careful drivers × Average cost of collision claims for careful drivers)

= 0.15 × $3000 + 0.85 × $500

= $450 + $425

= $875 per year

Hence, the correct answer is option (c) $875 per year

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The owner's equity be as of December 31, 20Y7 is $705

Explanation:

In this question, we apply the accounting equation which is given below

Total assets = Total liabilities + shareholder's equity

The question has said that the liabilities are decreased and the assets are increased.

So, the new asset is = total assets + increased amount

= $1,000 + $130

= $1,130

And, So, the new liability is = total liabilities - decreased amount

= $450 - $25

= $425

So, the shareholder equity would be equal to

= $1,130 - $425

= $705

Hence, the owner's equity be as of December 31, 20Y7 is $705

Given the following information: Percent of capital structure: Preferred stock 10 % Common equity (retained earnings) 40 Debt 50

sasho [114]

Answer: 8.23%

Explanation:

Firstly, we will calculate the cost of debt which will be:

= Yield (1-Tax rate)

= 9% × (1-0.34)

= 9% × 0.66

= 5.94%

Then, the Cmcost of preferred stock will be:

= 7/(104-9.40)

= 7/(94.6)

= 7.39%

We will also get the value of the cost of equity which will be:

= (Dividend expected common/Price common) + growth rate

= (2.50/76) + 8%

= 3.29% + 8%

= 11.29%

For Debt:

Cost after tax: 5.94

Weight = 50%

Weighted cost = 5.94 × 50% = 2.97

For Preferred stock:

Cost after tax: 7.39

Weight = 1%

Weighted cost = 7.39 × 10% = 0.74

For Common equity

Cost after tax: 11.29

Weight = 40%

Weighted cost = 11.29 × 40% = 4.52

Weighted average cost of capital = 2.97 + 0.74 + 4.52 = 8.23%
