Answer:

d. 8.2%

Explanation:

The computation of the WACC is shown below:

= Weightage of debt × cost of debt × ( 1- tax rate) + (Weightage of  common stock) × (cost of common stock)

where,  

Weighted of debt = Debt ÷ total firm

= (0.60 ÷ 1.60)

= 0.375

And, the weighted of common stock = (Common stock ÷ total firm)

                                                              = 1 ÷ 1.60

                                                              = 0.625  

The total firm is

= 0.60 + 1

= 1.60

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= (0.375 × 8%) × ( 1 - 35%) + (0.625 × 10%)

= 1.95% + 6.25%

= 8.20%

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

shifts the short-run Phillips curve up

Explanation:

The Phillips curve is a graph that shows the relationship between inflation and unemployment. In the short run, there is an inverse relationship between inflation and unemployment. The Phillip curve submits that high inflation is the cost to pay for economic growth. economic growth is accompanied by low unemployment. In the long run, there is no trade-off between inflation and unemployment.

An increase in expected inflation leads to an upward shift of the Phillips curve in the short run. Unemployment would stay unchanged. While a decrease in expected inflation leads to a downward shift of the Phillips curve

Stagflation in the 1970s have disproved the Phillips curve. Stagflation is when there is high unemployment and high inflation

The ACME manufacturing company is weighing its options to source Component X. Supplier A would cost $3000 per order plus $2.50 f
raketka [301]

Question Completion:

Since the options are not provided, it is assumed that ACME requires 2,000 units of Component X monthly.  Which supplier should the company choose?

Answer:

ACME Manufacturing Company

The supplier that should be chosen is:

Supplier A.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Quantity of component X required monthly = 2,000 units

Cost of buying from supplier A = $3,000 + ($2.50 * 2,000) = $8,000

Cost of buying from supplier B = $6 * 2,000 = $12,000

Cost of buying from supplier C = $5 * 2,000 = $10,000

b) This cost decision depends on the quantity of component X required by ACME manufacturing.  If the quantity were to be less than or equal to 1,100 units, another supplier other than supplier A might be preferred.  Again, if there are other considerations apart from cost, supplier A might not be chosen.  The implication is that the choice of a supplier for a component depend on many factors.

Cash Flows. Quick Computing currently sells 10 million computer chips each year at a price of $20 per chip. It is about to intro
Tema [17]

Answer:

Since net revenue has increased from $140 million to $246 million = $106 million by considering all costs thus all the costs and revenue shall be considered.

Explanation:

For calculating the present value, all the cost and revenue will be considered.

Original revenue = Sale of 10 million chips

10 million \times $20 = $200 million

Less: Cost = 10 million \times $6 = $60 million

Net Revenue = $140 million

In case of introducing new chips

Revenue will be as follows

12 million \times $25 + 3 million \times $20

= $300 million + $60 million = $360 million

Less: Costs 12 million \times $8 + 3 million \times $6

= $96 million + $18 million = $114 million

Net Revenue = $360 - 114 = $246 million

Since net revenue has increased from $140 million to $246 million = $106 million by considering all costs thus all the costs and revenue shall be considered.
