Answer:

10.79%

Explanation:

WACC = Pretax cost of debt*(1 - tax rate)*[(Number of bonds*Par value *selling price) / (Number of bonds*Par value*Selling price*Number of shares *Price per share)] + Rate of return*[(Number of shares*Price per share) / (Number of bonds*Par value*Selling price + Number of shares*Price per share)]

WACC = 0.065 *(1 - 0.29) * [(400*$1,500*98.2%) / (400*$1,500*98.2% + 15,100*$75)] + 0.14 x [(15,100*$75) / (400*$1,500*98.2% + 15,100*$ 75)]

WACC = 4.615%*[$ 589,200 / ($589,200 + $1,132,500)] + 0.14*[$1,132,500 / ($589,200 + $1,132,500)]

WACC= 4.615%*$589,200 / $1,721,700 + 0.14*$ 1,132,500/$ 1,721,700

WACC = 4.615%*0.342219899 + 14%*0.657780101

WACC =  1.579344834% + 9.208921415%

WACC = 10.79%

In an economy, the government wants to increase aggregate demand by $50 billion at each price level to increase real GDP and red
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

(B) $20 billion

Explanation:

Given a certain level of MPC, an increase in government spending (G) by a certain amount translates to an increase in aggregate demand (AD) through the relationship below.

ΔAD = \frac{ΔG}{1 - MPC}

where Δ means <em>change.</em>

<em />

Therefore, given ΔAD of $50 billion, and MPC of 0.6,

ΔAD = \frac{ΔG}{1 - MPC}

= 50 = \frac{ΔG}{1 - 0.6}

= 50 = \frac{ΔG}{0.4}

= ΔG = 50 * 0.4 = 20

Therefore, increase in government purchases = $20 billion.

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

$78,000

Explanation:

Total cost of producing 2,000 tires:

= [(Direct materials + Direct manufacturing labor + Variable manufacturing overhead) × 2,000 units] + Fixed cost

= [($20 + $3 + $6) × 2,000 units] + ($10 × 2,000 units)

= $58,000 + $20,000

= $78,000

Therefore, the total cost of producing 2,000 tires is $78,000.
