Answer:

weighted-average cost of capital is 11.57 %

Explanation:

Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is the return that is required by providers of long term permanent sources of capital.

WACC = Weight of Equity × Cost of Equity + Weight of Debt × After tax cost of debt.

where,

After tax cost of debt = interest × ( 1 - tax rate)

                                     = 8% × (1 - 0.35)

                                     = 5.20 %

Therefore,

WACC = 0.65 × 15% + 0.35 × 5.20 %

           = 11.57 %

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Following are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

Assume that r_1  will be a 12-month for the spot rate:

\to 1.25 \% \times \frac{100}{2} \times 0.99 + \frac{(1.25\% \times \frac{100}{2}+100)}{(1+\frac{r_1}{2})^2}=98\\\\\to \frac{1.25}{100} \times \frac{100}{2} \times 0.99 + \frac{(\frac{1.25}{100} \times \frac{100}{2}+100)}{(1+\frac{r_1}{2})^2}=98\\\\\to \frac{1.25}{2} \times 0.99 + \frac{(\frac{1.25}{2} +100)}{(1+\frac{r_1}{2})^2}=98\\\\\to 0.61875 + \frac{( 0.625 +100)}{(\frac{2+r_1}{2})^2}=98\\\\\to 0.61875 + \frac{( 100.625)}{(\frac{2+r_1}{2})^2}=98\\\\\to 0.61875 + \frac{402.5}{(2+r_1)^2}=98\\\\

\to 0.61875 + \frac{402.5}{(2+r_1)^2}=98\\\\\to 0.61875 -98 = \frac{402.5}{(2+r_1)^2}\\\\\to -97.38125= \frac{402.5}{(2+r_1)^2}\\\\\to (2+r_1)^2= \frac{402.5}{ -97.38125}\\\\\to (2+r_1)^2= -4.13\\\\ \to r_1=3.304\%

Assume that r_2  will be a 18-month for the spot rate:

\to 1.5\% \times \frac{100}{2} \times 0.99+1.5\%  \times \frac{100}{2} \times \frac{1}{(1+ \frac{3.300\%}{2})^2}+\frac{(1.5\%  \times  \frac{100}{2}+100)}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}=97\\\\\to \frac{1.5}{100} \times \frac{100}{2} \times 0.99+\frac{1.5}{100}  \times \frac{100}{2} \times \frac{1}{(1+ \frac{\frac{3.300}{100}}{2})^2}+\frac{(\frac{1.5}{100}  \times  \frac{100}{2}+100)}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}=97\\\\

\to \frac{1.5}{2}  \times 0.99+\frac{1.5}{2}\times \frac{1}{(1+ \frac{\frac{3.300}{100}}{2})^2}+\frac{(\frac{1.5}{2} +100)}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}=97\\\\\to 0.7425+0.75 \times \frac{1}{(1+ \frac{\frac{3.300}{100}}{2})^2}+\frac{(0.75  +100)}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}=97\\\\\to 1.4925 \times \frac{1}{(1+0.0165)^2}+\frac{(100.75 )}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}=97\\\\\to 1.4925 \times \frac{1}{(1.033)}+\frac{(100.75 )}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}=97\\\\

\to 1.4925 \times 0.96+\frac{(100.75 )}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}=97\\\\\to 1.4328+\frac{(100.75 )}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}=97\\\\\to 1.4328-97= \frac{(100.75 )}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}\\\\\to -95.5672= \frac{(100.75 )}{(1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3}\\\\\to (1+\frac{r_2}{2})^3= -1.054\\\\\to r_2=3.577\%

Assume that r_3  will be a 18-month for the spot rate:

\to 1.25\% \times \frac{100}{2} \times 0.99+1.25\% \times \frac{100}{2} \times \frac{1}{(1+\frac{3.300\%}{2})^2}+1.25\%\times\frac{100}{2} \times \frac{1}{(1+\frac{3.577\%}{2})^3}+(1.25\% \times \frac{\frac{100}{2}+100}{(1+\frac{r_3}{2})^4})=96\\\\

to solve this we get r_3=3.335\%

DeWitt Company sells a kitchen set for $345. To promote July 4, DeWitt ran the following advertisement:
Triss [41]

Answer:

$296.7

Explanation:

Since the first four hours the kitchen set will have a discount of 12 %, plus another 2 % for the last of each hour.

Ingrid bought it at the 1 hour and 25 min, that means that she could get 12 % for the first hour plus another 2 % because of th end of the first hour.

So it will be:

14 % (345) = $48.3

To the total price: $345 - $48.3 = $ 296.7
