Trust based on a person's competence would be summarized by this team member's affectionate statement towards another team membe

Maslowich

Answer:

The correct answer is:

I trust you to be able to accomplish this task (C)

Explanation:

First of all, you have to know the meaning of the word competence, and competence is a collection of related relevant abilities, know-how and skills required to act effectively on a job or situation. Which is a clear message passed by the speaker in the statement "I trust you to be able to accomplish this task", because the speaker knows that his team member possesses the right skills to carry out a task successfully.

The statement in option D ( "I trust you to do the right thing." ) also tells a little about competence because one of the definitions of competence highlights being sane, and one needs to be sane to do the right thing, but it is only second choice when compared to the statement in option "C".

Next time when you are faced with this kind of question, identify the keyword ( which in this case is competence), and use that to answer the question.

Giving the following information:

During the quarter ending June 30, the company manufactured 3,700 helmets, using 2,368 kilograms of plastic. The plastic cost the company $15,629. According to the standard cost card, each helmet should require 0.56 kilograms of plastic, for $7.00 per kilogram.

A) Standard quantity.

SQ= 0.56kg * 3,700 helmets= 2,072 kg el plastic.

B) Standard cost.

SC= 2,072 kg* $7= $14,504

C) Material spending variance.

MSvariance= real cost - estimated cost= 15,629 - 14,504= $1,125 unfavorable

D)

Material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity= [7 - (15,629/2,368)]*2,368= $947 unfavorable

Material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price= (2,072 - 2,368)*7= $2,072 unfavorable

If Wild Widgets, Inc., were an all-equity company, it would have a beta of 0.9. The company has a target debt-equity ratio of .4

Veronika [31]

Answer:

a. 6.5%

b. 13.06%

c. 10.91%

Explanation:

a.

Cost of debt of a bond is yield to maturity. Yield to maturity is the rate of return that a investor actually receives or a borrows actually pays on a bond. It is long term return or payment which is expressed in annual term.

Formula for yield to maturity is as follow

Yield to maturity = [ C + ( F - P ) / n ] / [ (F + P ) / 2 ]

By placing values in the formula

Assuming the bond face value is $1,000

Yield to maturity = [ (1000x7.2) + ( 1,000 - $1,090 ) / 20 ] / [ ( 1,000 + $1,090 ) / 2 ]

Yield to maturity = [ $72 + ( 1,000 - $1,090 ) / 20 ] / $1,045

Yield to maturity = [ $72 - $4.5 ] / $1,045

Yield to maturity = $67.5 / $1,045

Yield to maturity = 6.5%

So, the cost of Debt is 6.5%

b.

As 0.9 is the unlevered beta, We need Levered beta due to restructuring of capital.

Beta Levered = Beta Unlevered x ( 1 + ( 1 - tax rate ) x Debt / Equity)

Beta Levered = 0.9 x ( 1 + ( 1 - 0.35 ) x 0.4 )

Beta Levered = 1.134

Cost of equity can be calculated using CAPM

CAPM calculated the expected return on an equity investment based on the risk free rate, market premium and risk beta of the investment.

Formula for CAPM is as follow

Expected return = Risk free Rate + Beta ( Market premium)

As we know the Risk premium is the difference of market return and risk free rate.

Expected return = Risk free Rate + Beta ( Market Return - Risk free Rate )

Ra = Rf + β ( Rm - Rf )

Ra = 4.1% + 1.134 ( 12% - 4.1% )

Ra = 13.06%

Cost of Equity is 13.06%

c.

WACC is the average cost of capital of the firm based on the weightage of the debt and weightage of the equity multiplied to their respective costs.

According to WACC formula

WACC = ( Cost of equity x Weightage of equity )+ ( Cost of debt ( 1- t) x Weightage of debt )

Placing the values in formula

If the debt to equity 0.4 the equity value should be 1 and total capital is 1.4 ( 1 + 0.4 )

WACC = ( 13.06% x 1 / 1.4 )+ ( 6.5% ( 1- 0.35) x 0.4 / 1.4 ) = 9.71% + 1.2% = 10.91%

WACC is 10.91%
