Answer:
The reason the government is often more responsive to producer interests than to consumer interests when it comes to the imposition of tariffs and quotas is:
it wants to ensure that producers are protected from foreign competition.
Explanation:
Producers face foreign competitive threats. Consumers do not face such competition. Therefore, the government will often consider the producers' interests more than the consumers' interests when imposing trade tariffs and quotas. If local industries are not protected from their foreign competitors, the unemployment rate will increase and the economy will be flooded with cheap and low quality goods from other countries. In that way, the US will be subsidizing the foreign producers indirectly.
Answer:
Weight of equity = 0.31067 or 31.067% or 96/309
Explanation:
WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure which can comprise of debt, preferred stock and common equity. The WACC for a firm can be calculated as follows,
WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate) + wP * rP + wE * rE
Where,
- w represents the weight of each component based on market value in the capital structure
- r represents the cost of each component
- D, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and common equity respectively
To calculate the weight of equity in WACC computation, we first need to find out the Market value(MV) of each component and the market value of the overall capital structure.
MV of common equity = 8 million shares * 12 per share
MV of common equity = $96 million
MV of Preferred stock = 6 million shares * 30 per share
MV of Preferred stock = $180 million
The bonds are usually have a par value of $1000 unless specified otherwise.
MV of debt = 30 thousand * $1000 * 110%
MV of debt = $33 million
MV of total capital Structure = 96 + 180 + 33 => $309 million
Weight of equity = 96 / 309
Weight of equity = 0.31067 or 31.067% or 96/309
Answer:
Decrease total assets and net income.
Explanation:
There is an inventory write down because the value of inventory has decreased. The net realizable value of inventory is less than its cost.
Inventory write down involves expensing a part of the inventory asset in the current period.
As a result of the write down, inventory would decrease. Inventory is part of total assets. Thus, total assets would decrease
Also, cost would increase because of the write down and so net income would decrease.
