Answer:

Applet's flexible budget variance for total costs is $5,140  unfavorable variance since actual is higher than budgeted cost

Explanation:

Flexible budget variance for total costs=actual total costs-budgeted total costs of 72 connectors

actual total costs of 72 connectors=$19,000

budgeted total costs of 72 connectors=budgeted fixed cost+budgeted total variable cost of 72 connectors

total budgeted variable cost=72*$130=$ 9,360.00  

budgeted fixed cost is $4,500

Budgeted total costs of 72 connectors=$9,360.00+$4,500.00=$ 13,860.00  

Flexible budget variance =$ 13,860.00-$19,000.00=$5140  unfavorable variance

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

An Award based motivation model

Explanation:

Rather than reward employees based on sales volume as in this case which resulted in pressuring customers, an award based reward model that recognizes employees who stand out in other areas such as "punctuality", "technical improvements", or "hours spent on the job" would motivate employees.

This creates a more decent working environment without fierce competition, and it allows other employees to strive for such improvements.

Ford Motor Company is discussing new ways to recapitalize the firm and raise additional capital. Its current capital structure h
sergey [27]

Complete Question:

Ford Motor Company is discussing new ways to recapitalize the firm and raise additional capital. Its current capital structure has a 10% weight in equity, 25% in preferred stock, and 65% in debt. The cost of equity capital is 17%, the cost of preferred stock is 11%, and the pretax cost of debt is 9%. What is the weighted average cost of capital for Ford if its marginal tax rate is 40%?

Answer:

7.96%

Explanation:

We can calculate WACC using the formula:

WACC = Cost of equity * Equity %age / 100%         +          

After Tax Cost of Debt * Debt %age / 100%            +        

Cost of Preferred Stock * Preferred Stock %age / 100%

Here,

Cost of equity is 17%

Cost of preferred stock is 11%

Post tax cost of debt = Pre-Tax cost *  (1 - Tax rate)

This implies,

Post tax cost of debt = 9% * (1 - 40%) =  5.4%

Equity weight is 10% weight in equity

Preferred stock weight is 25%

Debt Weight is 65%

By putting value in the formula given in the attachment, we have:

WACC = 17% * (10% / 100%)      +     11% * (25% / 100%)    +    5.4% * (65% / 100%)

WACC = 1.7%   +   2.75%   +    3.51%

WACC = 7.96%

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

$200,000

Explanation:

The value of the government obligation = $5,00,000, 8%, 20 years bonds payable at 103

Interest expenses = $5,000,000 * 8/100 * 6/12 = $200,000.

Thus, $200,000 will be reported as debt service expenses in the fiscal year 20X7.

raketka [301]

Answer:33.75%

Explanation:

Let’s assume the price without discount is $100 .

Now from the information given , we have $100-0.25*$100 =0.75*$100

Which is 0.75 *$100= $75 is the price after the first discount .

0.75 - 0.55*$75= 0.45*$75

Now 0.45*75 = 33.75% which is the percentage of the original price .
