Answer:

pre-tax WACC is 12.43%

Explanation:

pre-tax WACC=E/V*ke+D/V*kd

E is the market value of equity which is 22 million*48=$1,056  million

D is the value of debt which $1,168 million

V is the total finance of debt and equity available at Rumolt Motors' disposal which is calculated as =$1,056  million+ $1,168 million=$ 2,224 million.

ke is the cost of equity given as 14%

kd is the cost of debt which is provided as 11%

The part of the formula that deals with tax is not included as the requirement is pre-tax weighted average cost of capital

pre-tax WACC=1056/2224*14%+1168/2224*11%

pre-tax WACC=12.43%

The pre-tax WACC Iis 12.43%

Answer:

Rumolt's pre-tax​ WACC = 12.4244

After-tax WACC = 10.11

Explanation:

Equity value =22million * $48 per share  =1056

Value of debt = $1168

Equity cost = 14 %

Dept cost = 11 %

Tax rate =40%

Total Capital value = Value of Equity + Value of Debt

                                =1168+1056

                                 =$2224

Weight of Equity = Value of Equity/Total Capital Value

                           =1056/ 2224

                            =0.4748

Weight of Debt = Value of Debt/Total Capital Value

                           =1168/ 2224

                           =0.5252

Cost of Capital =

Weight of Equity*Cost of Equity+Weight of  Debt*Cost of Debt

Cost of Capital = 0.4748 *14 + 0.5252*  11

                         = 12.4244

Rumolt's pre-tax​ WACC = 12.4244

(b):

After tax cost of debt =debt cost*(1-tax rate)

                                    = 11*(1-0.4)=6.6%

After tax Cost of Capital = Weight of Equity* After tax Cost of Equity+ Weight of Debt* After tax Cost of Debt

After tax Cost of Capital = 0.4748 *14 + 0.5252* 6.6

After-tax WACC = 10.11

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

$50,875

Explanation:

The computation of the present value is shown below:

Given that

NPER = 5 × 2 = 10

RATE = 10% ÷ 2 = 5%

PMt = $0

FV = $82,870

The formula is shown below:

= -PV(RATE;NPER;PMT;FV;TYPE)

After applying the above formula, the present value is $50,875

Hence, the present value is $50,875

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

And, the same is to be considered

Freight car loadings over an 18-week period at a busy port are as follows: A- Determine a linear trend line for expected freight
padilas [110]
The linear equation that best fits the given data is
y = 19.19x + 213.53
after data processing

In week 20 and 21, the expected loading is
y = 19.19 (20) + 213.53 = 597.33
y = 19.19 (21) + 213. 53 = 616.52

The week when the load is 776 is
776 = 19.19x + 213.53
x = 29.3 ~ 30 weeks

My name is Ann [436]

Suppose that you are available to go to work but have not looked for a job for at least the last four weeks because you believe that there​ aren't any jobs available. You would be counted as<u>  </u> <u>discouraged worke</u>r

Explanation:

<u>Suppose that you are available to go to work but have not looked for a job for at least the last four weeks because you believe that there​ aren't any jobs available. You would be counted as</u>

A <u>discouraged worke</u>r is an individual who has given up looking for employment even though they are perfectly eligible to take up a job but to the repeated failure in finding a job  they have then ceased their search for finding an employment.

Discouraged workers have stopped looking for employment opportunities because they feel that their is no job that suits their qualifications

Since they have stopped searching they are not included in the labor force hence when we see the statistics for unemployment these people are not included there also .So they are called <u>Discouraged Workers</u>

<u> The correct formula for calculating the unemployment​ rate</u>

<u>(</u>

<u> D) Neither formula is used to calculate the unemployment rate</u>

The formula for Unemployment rate is

==> U=Unemployed People/Labor force*100
