Answer:

None of the choices is correct , please find step by step explanation to get the WACC below.

Explanation:

First, find the pretax cost of debt. Using a financial calculator, input the following;

Maturity of the bond; N = 25

Price of the bond; PV = -(0.97 *1000) = -970

Annual coupon payment; PMT = 0.10*1000 = 100

Face value of the bond ; FV = 1000

then CPT I/Y = 10.339% (this is the pretax cost of debt rD)

Next, find the cost of equity; rE = (D1/Price) +g

rE = (1/15) + 0.05

rE = 0.0667 + 0.05

rE = 0.1167 or 11.67%

Market value of equity=  5,000,000 *$15 = $75,000,000

Market value of debt = 0.97 *$10,000,000 = $9,700,000

Total market value = 75,000,000 +9,700,000 = $84,700,000

WACC = wE*rE + wD*rD(1-tax)

wE; weight of equity = 75,000,000/84,700,000 = 0.8855

wD; weight of debt = 9,700,000 / 84,700,000 = 0.1145

WACC = (0.8855*  0.1167) + [ 0.1034(1-0.30)]

WACC = 0.1033 + 0.0724

WACC = 0.1757 or 17.57%

Suppose that the central bank in this economy is concerned that inflation is too high and wants to lower the inflation rate by 6
leva [86]

Answer:

a) True

Explanation:

We can not determine the exact percentage by which a 6% reduction in inflation will cause a hike in unemployment but this conclusion is true. As per the Philips Curve, inflation and unemployment are in an inverse relationship

This is to say an increase in one will cause a decrease in the other and vice versa. This relationship however is not linear and so the degree of changes one variable causes in another will depend on the economy and statistics of the economy.

Hope that helps.

What is the ending balance on the statement of changes in owner's equity for this data?
creativ13 [48]

The Owner's Equity statement illustrates the capital account changes due to contributions, withdrawals, net income, or a net loss. So Ending Balance of the statement of changes in Owner's equity will be; Opening capital + Capital Added + Net Income - Owner's Withdrawals.

A one-page report titled a "statement of owner's equity" compares all assets and liabilities to determine the owner's equity's overall value. The snapshot, which is tracked over a predetermined time period or accounting period, depicts the flow of cash through a company.

Owner's equity is simply the difference between the owner's initial investment in the business and any withdrawals made by the owner. For instance: A real estate project with a value of $500,000 and a loan balance of $400,000 would have $100,000 in owner's equity.
