Answer:
a. Compute the cost of retained earnings (Ke)
$60 = $3 / (Ke - 8%)
Ke - 8% = $3 / $60 = 5%
Ke = 13%
b. If a $5 flotation cost is involved, compute the cost of new common stock (Kn).
$60 (1 - $5/$60) = $3 / (Kn - 8%)
$55 = $3 / (Kn - 8%)
Kn - 8% = $3 / $55 = 5.45%
Kn = 13.45%
Flotation costs reduce the amount of money that the company receives for every new stock that it issues, therefore, it increases the cost of new stocks.
Answer:
The average collection period is 56.25 days
Explanation:
The average collection period is the number of days' sales in receivables and calculated by using following formula:
The number of days' sales in receivables = 360/Accounts receivable turnover ratio
Accounts Receivable Turnover = Net Credit Sales/Accounts Receivable
Net Credit sales = Total Sales - the sales are for cash = $1,800,000 - 20% x $1,800,000 = $1,440,000
Accounts Receivable Turnover = $1,440,000/$225,000 = 6.4 times
The number of days' sales in receivables = 360/6.4 = 56.25 days
Answer: The cost of capital for a firm with no debt in its capital structure.
Explanation:
Leverage in finance refers to the use of debt. Unlevered capital therefore would refer to capital that is without debt which means that an unlevered cost of capital is one with no debt in its capital structure.
Companies with such a capital structure derive their capital 100% from Equity and as such do not pay interest. This means however, that they will not benefit from the tax shields that interest payments offer.
