Answer:

0.1631 ; 16.31%

Explanation:

Given:

Cost of capital = 14% = 0.14

Debt to equity ratio = 60% = 0.6

Cost of debt = 9% = 0.09

Tax rate = 23% = 0.23

Cost of equity : cost of capital + debt - to - equity ratio * (1 - tax rate) * (cost of capital - cost of debt)

Cost of equity = 0.14 + 0.60 × (1 - 0.23) × (0.14 - .09)

Cost of equity :

0.14 + 0.60 * 0.77 * 0.05

0.14 + 0.0231

= 0.1631 ; 0.1631 * 100% = 16.31%

Explanation:

The net cash provided by operating activities can be computed by preparing the operating activities of the statement of cash flow as shown below:

Net income for the year                          $3,000,000

add depreciation                                      $1,200,000

add amortization                                       $240,000

deduct increase in accounts receivable ($420,000)
