Answer:

A.8.85%

Explanation:

Computation to determine the weighted average cost of capital for Zonk based on the new capital structure.

First step is to calculate the Cost of equity capital using this formula

Cost of equity capital = Risk free rate + (Beta*Market premium)

Let plug in the formula

Cost of equity capital = 2.3% + (1.13*5.3%)

Cost of equity capital=8.28%

Now let determine theWeighted average cost capital

Weighted average cost capital = [.70*.14*(1-.35)]+(.30*.0828)

Weighted average cost capital= [.70*.14*.65]+.02484

Weighted average cost capital=0.0637+.02484

Weighted average cost capital= .0885*100

Weighted average cost capital= 8.85%

Therefore the weighted average cost of capital for Zonk based on the new capital structure is 8.85%

kifflom [539]

Answer:

The journal entry to record the first installment payment will include a​ debit to interest expense of $27,900, mortgage notes payable of $21,248 and a credit to cash account of $49,148

Explanation:

For recording the first installment payment, we have to compute the interest amount which is given below:

Interest amount = value of Mortgage note × rate × year

                           = $186,000 × 15% × 1 year

                           = $27,900

Since we have to compute the installment for January​ 1, 2019, therefore, we take the one year period

Now, we have to compute the principal amount which equals tp

= Installment amount - interest expense

= $49,148 - $27,900

= $21,248

So, the journal entry would be

Interest expense A/c Dr             $27,900

Mortgage note payable A/c Dr   $21,248

    To Cash                                                       $49,148

(Being payment of the first installment recorded)
