Answer:

9%

Explanation:

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 common stock x Weightage of common stock ) + ( Cost of preferred stock x Weightage of preferred stock ) + ( Cost of debt ( 1- t) x Weightage of debt )

As WACC is calculated using Market values.

Company Value = 100%

Value of Debt = 28%

Value of Debt = 100% - 28% = 72%

WACC = ( 10.54% x 72% ) + ( 5.27% x 28% )

WACC = 7.59% + 1.48%  = 9.07% = 9% (rounded off)

If the supply of dollars in the market for foreign-currency exchange shifts left, then the a. rises and the quantity of dollars
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

b. rises and the quantity of dollars exchanged falls.

Explanation:

As provided that the curve shifts leftward that means the supply has decreased and that the price has fallen.

Accordingly people will tend to buy more dollars, but since the supply is less the exchange of dollars practically will fall because the supply has decreased and the supplier will not be ready to sell the same in low rates.

Accordingly the exchange rate of dollars will rise because of low supply.

Also the quantity will fall of actual exchange of dollars because the suppliers would not supply at low price in high demand.

Thus, option b is correct.

Answer:

Rate of return is 13.2%

Explanation:

Rate of Return is the actual return that an investor receives from an investment in asset during a specific period of time. If the investment is made in the stocks, It includes the dividend received and the price change of the stock.

Total return Received = Dividend + Price change = $1.87 + ($37.75 - 35 ) = $4.62

Rate of Return = Total return During the period / Initial Price of the stock

Rate of Return = $4.62 / $35 = 0.132 = 13.2%

<u><em>Part e</em></u>

Margin of safety in dollars  =    $960,000

Margin of safety in percentage  =  33.3 %

<em><u>Part f</u></em>

Operating Leverage = 3.00

Explanation:

<u>Income Statement :</u>

<em>Sales - Expenses = Income</em>

Note : I have separated Variable and Fixed Expenses

<u>Contribution Margin ratio :</u>

<em>Contribution Margin ratio = Contribution ÷ Sales</em>

                                          =  $1,728,000  ÷  $2,880,000

                                          = 0.6 or 60 %

<u>Break-even sales ( units and dollars) :</u>

<em>Break-even sales (units) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit</em>

                                        = $1,152,000 ÷ $144.00

                                        = 8,000

<em>Break-even sales (dollars) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution margin ratio</em>

                                            = $1,152,000 ÷ 0.60

                                            = $1,920,000

<u>Margin of safety in dollars and as a percentage of sales :</u>

<u />

<em>Margin of safety in dollars  = Expected Sales (dollars) - Break-even sales (dollars)</em>

                                             =  $2,880,000 - $1,920,000

                                             =   $960,000

<em>Margin of safety in %       = (Expected Sales  - Break-even sales ) ÷ Expected Sales</em>

                                             = $960,000 ÷ $2,880,000

                                             = 33.3 %

<u>Operating leverage</u>

<em>Operating Leverage = Contribution ÷ Earnings Before Interest and Tax</em>

                                  =  $1,728,000 ÷ $576,000

                                  = 3.00
