Answer:

The best estimate of the company’s cost of equity is 12%

Explanation:

Estimate of the company’s cost of equity = (Required Return as per Capital Asset Pricing Model + Cost of Equity) / 2

Required Return as per Capital Asset Pricing Model = Risk Free rate + Market Risk Premium * Beta

= 4.9 % + ( 6% * 1.2)

= 0.049 + 0.06 * 1.2

= 0.049 + 0.072

= 0.1210

= 12.10%

Cost of Equity = (Expected Dividend/Price) + Growth Rate

= [( $ 1.30 * 1.08) / $ 36] + 8%

= 0.039 + 0.08

= 0.1190

= 11.90%

The best estimate of the company’s cost of equity = (12.10 % + 11.90 % )/ 2

=  24% / 2

= 12%

Hence, the best estimate of the company’s cost of equity is 12%

One year ago, Alpha Supply issued 15-year bonds at par. The bonds have a coupon rate of 6.5 percent, paid semiannually, and a fa
Masja [62]

Answer:

option (C) - 6.11%

Explanation:

Data provided :

Coupon rate one year ago = 6.5% = 0.065

Semiannual coupon rate = \frac{0.065}{2} = 0.0325

Face value = $1,000

Present market yield = 7.2% = 0.072

Semiannual Present market yield, r = \frac{0.072}{2} = 0.036

Now,

With semiannual coupon rate bond price one year ago, C

= 0.0325 × $1,000

= $32.5

Total period in 15 years = 15 year - 1 year = 14 year

or

n = 14 × 2 = 28 semiannual periods

Therefore,

The present value = C\times[\frac{(1-(1+r)^{-n})}{r}]+FV(1+r)^{-n}

= \$32.5\times[\frac{(1-(1+0.036)^{-28})}{0.036}]+\$1,000\times(1+0.036)^{-28}

or

= $32.5 × 17.4591 + $1,000 × 0.37147

= $567.42 + $371.47

= $938.89

Hence,

The percent change in bond price = \frac{\textup{Final price - Initial price}}{\textup{Initial price}}\times100\%

= \frac{\textup{938.89-1,000}}{\textup{1,000}}

= - 6.11%

therefore,

the correct answer is option (C) - 6.11%

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

$22,780

Explanation:

The computation of the  total amount of indirect manufacturing cost incurred is shown below:

= Variable manufacturing overhead + fixed manufacturing overhead

where,

Variable manufacturing overhead  = Number of units produced × variable manufacturing overhead per unit

= 4,600 units × $1.30

= $5,980

Fixed manufacturing overhead  = Number of units produced and sold × fixed manufacturing overhead per unit

= 5,600 units × $3

= $16,800

So, the total indirect manufacturing cost is

= $5,980 + $16,800

= $22,780
