Answer:

$660,000

Explanation:

WACC = [wD * kD * (1 - t)] + [wE * kE]

WACC = [(0.77 / 1.77)*6.12%* (1 - 0.40)] + [(1 / 1.77)*11.61%]

WACC = 1.60% + 6.56%

WACC = 8.16%

Present value of annuity = Annuity*[1-(1+interest rate)^-time period]/rate

Present value of annuity = $1.67*[1-(1.08156745763)^-9]/0.0816

Present value of annuity = $1.67*6.206374532

Present value of annuity = $10.36 million

NPV = Present value of inflows - Present value of outflows

NPV = $10.36 million - $9.7 million

NPV = $660,000

marin [14]

Answer:

7.69%

Explanation:

The official unemployment rate includes people who do not have a job but are able to take a job and are currently seeking one.

People with part time jobs are considered employed.

Littleville has 1,000 residents, 600 are employed = 400 do not work but how many are considered unemployed:

400 - 240 (under age 16) - 10 (institutionalized) - 100 (are not looking for work, including students and homemakers) = 50 unemployed

Littleville's unemployment rate = number of unemployed / total labor force = 50 / (600 + 50) = 50 / 650 = 7.69%

Aneli [31]

Answer:

Need not make any special disclosure

Explanation:

The reason is that it is not a parent-subsidiary transaction which means if the group as a whole trade with each other then they must add a special disclosure in the financial statement otherwise it must be neglected. The company must not specially disclose small borrowings from the lenders when it is presenting that figure in the financial statement borrowing figures. If the transaction is between the group or the borrowings are prominent it must be disclosed separately in the note to financial statement.

Lamont Communications has amortized a patent on a straight-line basis since it was acquired in 2010 at a cost of $50 million. Du
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

C) Patent amortization expense of $5 million.

Explanation:

Patent acquisition date is 2010

Cost of acquisition = $50 million

Initial Useful life = 20 years

Annual amortization = $50,000,000/20

                                  = $2,500,000

Between 2010 and start of 2013 is 3 years

Carrying value at the start of 2013

= 50,000,000 - 3(2,500,000)

= $42,500,000

If patent would be received over a total period of 8 years rather than the 20-year legal life being used to amortize the cost,

Patent amortization expense in 2013 = $42,500,000/8

                                                              = $5,312,500

This can be estimated as $5 million.

The right option is C) Patent amortization expense of $5 million.

A proposed nuclear power plant will cost $2.2 billion to build and then will produce cash flows of $300 million a year for 15 ye
pochemuha

Answer:

Project NPV at 5% discount rate = $1346 .78

Project NPV at 18% discount rate = -597.4

Explanation:

Below is the given values:

Initial cost = $2.2 billion

Yearly cash inflow, A = $300 million

Time = 15 years

Salvage value, S = $900

Project NPV at 5% discount rate = A (P/A, 5%, 15) + S (P/F, 5%, 15) - Initial cost

Project NPV at 5% discount rate = 300 (P/A, 5%, 15) + 900 (P/F, 5%, 15) - $2.2 billion

Project NPV at 5% discount rate = 300 (10.3796) + 900 (0.4810) - $2.2 billion or 2200 million

Project NPV at 5% discount rate = $1346 .78

Now,

Project NPV at 18% discount rate = 300 (5.0915) + 900 (0.0835) - $2.2 billion or 2200 million

Project NPV at 18% discount rate = -597.4
