Answer:

32.35%  or 0.33

151.96%   or 1.52

The new borrowing would make the financing structure more risky since the amount of fixed interest payment would increase significantly

Explanation:

Current debt to equity ratio:

Debt to equity=debt amount/equity amount

Current debt  is $165,000

current equity is $675,000

equity =total assets-debt

debt to equity ratio=$165,000/($675,000-$165,000)=32.35%

If the $610,000 is borrowed ,the debt value would increase by $610,000

new debt value=$165,000+$610,000=$ 775,000.00  

New debt to equity ratio= $775,000.00/$510,000.00=151.96%

The AFN equation assumes that the ratios of assets and liabilities to sales remain constant over time. However, this assumption
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

The answer is A True

Explanation:

AFN which is "additional funds needed" is a concept used commonly in business looking to expand operations and influence. Since a business that seeks to increase its sales level will require more assets to meet that stated goal, some provision must be made to accommodate the change in assets. AFN is a way of calculating how much of new funds will be needed, so that the firm can realistically look at whatever or not they will be able to generate the additional funds and therefore be able to achieve the higher sales level.

Economies of scale are cost advantage reaped by companies when production becomes efficient. Firms can achieve economies of scale by increasing production and lowering cost. This does not involve calculating of new funds needed for a realistic expansion of the firm.

Lumpy assets are assets that cannot be acquired in small increments but must be obtained in large, discrete units.

Excess Capacity indicates to a situation in which the demand for a company's goods and services is less than its production capacity. This situation can arise in any firm during  the low point in a seasonal industry, where capacity is maintained to match the peak part of the season.

A constant ration can not be meet in this condition of economies of scale, lumpy assets, and excess capacity as these conditions  can not be used in raising funds or additional funds that are needed by the industry in its expansion.

Feliz [49]

Answer:

The cash dividend that must be paid to preferred stockholders in the second year before any dividend is paid to common stockholders is  $10,200.

Explanation:

In order to calculate the cash dividend that must be paid to preferred stockholders in the second year before any dividend is paid to common stockholders is , we have to make the following calculations.

First, we have to calculate the Annual preferred dividend = (2800*50*6.5%) = $9,100

Hence, First year preferred dividend = $9,100-$8,000 = $1,100

Finally, if we make $1,100+$9,100 = $10,200 and so this will be the cash dividend that must be paid to preferred stockholders in the second year before any dividend is paid to common stockholders.
