True or false: Many companies are discontinuing defined-benefit plans and moving toward defined-contribution plans, which shifts
julsineya [31]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

A defined benefit pension plan is a type of pension plan where the employer gives a promise with respect to the particular pension payment that could be lumpsum for the retirement basis

Since in the question it is mentioned that the companies would not continue with the defined benefit plan and they move to the defined-contribution plans that save for the retirement so that it would create the more responsibility over the company due to this they would provide the retirement benefit but this statement is false as it is better to received the lumpsum amount

Fama’s Llamas has a WACC of 9.7 percent. The company’s cost of equity is 12 percent, and its pretax cost of debt is 7.5 percent.
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

0.4766

Explanation:

Given:

WACC = 9.7%

Company’s cost of equity = 12%

Pretax cost of debt = 7.5%

Tax rate = 35%

Now,

WACC

=  Weight × Cost of equity + (1 - weight) × Pretax cost of debt × (1-tax rate)

or

0.097 = weight × 0.12 + ( 1 - weight ) × 0.075 × (1 - 0.35)

or

0.097 = 0.12 × weight + 0.04875 - 0.04875 × weight

or

0.04825 = 0.07125 × weight

or

weight = 0.6772

also,

weight = \frac{\textup{Equity}}{\textup{Debt + Equity}}

or

\frac{\textup{1}}{\textup{weight}}  = \frac{\textup{Debt+equity}}{\textup{Equity}}

or

\frac{1}{0.6772} = \frac{\textup{Debt}}{\textup{Equity}}  + 1

or

1.4766 = \frac{\textup{Debt}}{\textup{Equity}}  + 1

or

\frac{\textup{Debt}}{\textup{Equity}}  = 0.4766

Mandesa, Inc. has current liabilities of $9,500,000, current ratio of 2.0 times, inventory turnover of 12 times, average collect
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

$5,569,634

Explanation:

Current ratio = current assets = 2× $9,500,000= $19,000,000

Inventory turnover = 12 times = $65,000,000÷ 12= $ 5,416,667

Average collection period (APC) = 45 days = account receivable × 365 days

=> Account receivable = (45 × $65,000,000 )÷ 365 days = $8,013,699

=> cash and marketable securities =$ 19,000,000 - $5,416,667- $8,013,699 = $5,569,634
