Answer:

5.38 %

Explanation:

WACC = Cost of Equity x Weight of Equity + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt

where,

Cost of Equity = 9.00 % (given)

After tax Cost of Debt = 6% x (1 - 0.21) = 4.74 %

Market Value of Equity = 1/5 x $13 million = $2.6 million

Weight of Equity = $2.6 million / $11.6 million = 0.22

Weight of Debt = $9 million / $11.6 million = 0.76

therefore,

WACC =  9.00 % x 0.22 + 4.74 % x 0.76

           = 5.38 %

thus

the company’s WACC is 5.38 %

inn [45]

Because there isn't one single measure of inflation, the government and researchers use a variety of methods to get the most balanced picture of how prices fluctuate in the economy. Two of the most commonly used price indexes are the consumer price index (CPI) and the GDP deflator. The CPI for this year is calculated by dividing <u>the value of all goods and services produced in the economy this year </u>using <u>this year's prices</u> by the<u> value of all goods and services produced in the economy this year</u> using <u>the base year's prices</u> and multiplying by 100. However, the GDP deflator reflects only the prices of all goods and services bought by the consumers.

<u>Explanation:</u>

GDP is the gross domestic product of a country which specifies the level of growth of the country. The value of the goods and the services of the country produced by the people of the country are all reflected in the gross domestic product of the country.

Greater the rate of GDP is of a particular country, higher would be the growth of the country. It is also used as a measure of comparison of the growth rate of the country.

Suppose that you invest $100 today in a risk-free investment and let the 6 percent annual interest rate compound. What will be t
Kipish [7]

Solution :

It is given that :

Amount of investment or the principle amount , P = $ 100

Time of investment , t = 6 years

Rate of interest compounded annually r = 6 %

Therefore the future amount of this investment in a 6 year time is given by,

$FV=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^t

$FV=100(1+\frac{6}{100})^6

$FV=100(1+0.06)^6

$FV= 100 (1.4185)$

$FV=141$

Therefore, after 6 years the investment of $ 100 will give an amount of $ 141.

const2013 [10]

Question not complete

Direct Labour Cost is missing

Direct Labor Cost ----- $50,000.00 $270,000.00

Answer:

a.

Overhead Rate (Cutting Department) = $5.5 per machine hour = $5.5 per machine hour

Overhead Rate (Finishing Department) = $12.2 per labour hour

b. Total Manufacturing Cost = $644

c. Yes

Explanation:

a. Compute the predetermined overhead rate to be used in each department.

Given

Cutting Department

The Cutting Department bases its rate on machine-hours

Manufacturing Overhead Costs = $264,000

Machine Hours = 48,000

Finishing Department

The Finishing Department bases its rate on direct labor-hours.

Manufacturing Overhead Costs = $366,000

Direct Labour Cost = $270,000

Overhead Rate (Cutting Department) = Manufacturing Overhead Cost/Machine Hours

Overhead Rate (Cutting Department) = $264,000/48,000

Overhead Rate (Cutting Department) = $5.5 per machine hour

Overhead Rate (Finishing Department) = Manufacturing Overhead Cost/Machine Hours

Overhead Rate (Finishing Department) = $366,000/$270,000

Overhead Rate (Finishing Department) = 1.36

Overhead Rate (Finishing Department) = 136% direct labour cost

b.

The Cutting Department bases its rate on machine-hours

Given

Machine hours = 80 machine hours

Overhead Rate = $5.5 per machine hours ------ Calculated

The Finishing Department bases its rate on direct labor-hours.

Given

Direct Labour Cost = 150

Overhead Rate = 136% labour cost ------ Calculated

Overhead Applied (Cutting Department) = 80 * 5.5

Overhead Applied = 440

Overhead Applied (Finishing Department) = 136% * 150

Overhead Applied = $204

Total Overhead Applied = $440 + $204

Total = $644

c. Yes

If they use a plantwide rate based on direct labor cost and if the jobs has longer machine hours and small amount of labor cost they will be charged less overhead cost.
