Answer:

WACC = 11.13%

Explanation:

total market value common stocks = 31,500 x $78 = $2,457,000

total market value of preferred stock = 7,250 x $94.50 = $685,125

total market value of debt = $401,000 x 1.105 = $443,105

total = $3,575,230

Rcs = 13.05%

Rps = $7.70 / $94.50 = 8.15%

Rd = 8.05%

WACC = ($2,457,000/$3,575,230 x 13.05%) + ($685,125/$3,575,230 x 8.15%) + ($443,105/$3,575,230 x 8.05% x 60%) = 8.968% + 1.562% + 0.6% = 11.13%

qwelly [4]

Answer:

a) Break even = 480.5 units ≈ 481 Million units

b) Breakeven = 8,014,162,500 units

Explanation:

calculations are in millions

Breakeven = fixed costs / contribution per unit

selling price per unit = $47063/400 = $117.66

Variable cost = ($18756*75%) + ($31755*50%) = $14067 +15877.50 =$29944.5/400 units =$74.86

contribution = $117.66-$74.86 = $42.80

fixed costs = ( $18756*25%) +( $31755*50%) =  $4689 + 15877.50 = $20566.50

Breakeven = $20566.50/$42.80 = 480.5 units

b) calculations

fixed costs = 20,566,500 + 300,000,000

                 = 320,566,500

break even = $320,566,500 /0.04

                  = 8,014,162,500 units

At its $60 selling price, Atlantic Company has sales of $15,000, variable manufacturing costs of $4,000, fixed manufacturing cos
Kay [80]

Answer:

$28

Explanation:

Step 1:

If a company sells a product at $60 each and makes a sale of $15,000, the number of units of items produced is

$15,000 ÷ $60 = 250 units.

Step 2:

To calculate the company's contribution margin per unit,

we have, (unit selling prices - unit production cost)

unit selling price is #60

unit cost of production is (total cost of prodcution ÷ number of units)

total cost of production is $4,000+ $1,000+ $2,000+ $1,000 = $8000

Unit cost of production is $8000 ÷ 250 = $32

i.e it takes $32 to manufacture 1 product.

Contribution margin = $60 - $32

                                 = $28

∴ the contribution margin is $28.

Cheers.

BigorU [14]

Answer:

$77,217

$11,289

Explanation:

Fist we will calculate the present value of $10,000 payment

A fix Payment for a specified period of time is called annuity. The discounting of these payment on a specified rate is known as present value of annuity. The value of the annuity is also determined by the present value of annuity payment.

Formula for Present value of annuity is as follow

PV of annuity = P x [ ( 1- ( 1+ r )^-n ) / r ]

Where

P = Annual payment = $10,000

r = rate of return = 10% / 2  = 5%

n = number of period = 5 years x 2 semiannual payments per year = 10 payments

PV of annuity = $10,000 x [ ( 1- ( 1+ 0.05 )^-10 ) / 0.05 ]

PV of Annuity = $77,217

Now we will use the discounting method to calculate the present value of lump sum payment of $20,000

Present value = Future value x Present value factor

PV = FV x ( 1 + r )^-n

PV = $20,000 x ( 1 + 0.1 )^-6

PV = $11,289
