Solution :

We know,

$\text{WACC}=\text{equity weightage } \times \text{equity cost} + \text{net debt weightage} \times \text{debt cost} \times (1 -\text{tax rate})$

Net debt = debt market value - excess cash

               = 110 - 10

               = 100 million dollar

$\text{net debt weightage}=\frac{\text{market value of net debt}}{\text{equity market value+ net debt market value}}$

                             $=\frac{100}{300+100}$

                            = 0.25

$\text{equity weightage}=\frac{\text{market value of equity}}{\text{equity market value+ net debt market value}}$

                          $=\frac{300}{300+100}$

                         = 0.75

Therefore, WACC =  0.75 x 12% + 0.25 x 5% x (1 - 31%)

                              =  0.75 x 12% + 0.25 x 5% x (1 - 0.31)

                              =  0.75 x 12% + 0.25 x 5% x 0.69

                              =  9% + 0.862%

                             = 9.862%

Suppose that consumers purchase fish and computer chips. In 2010, one pound of fish costs $1, a computer chip costs $1, and the
tangare [24]

Answer:

42.5%

Explanation:

The computation of the inflation rate between 2012 and 2011 is shown below:

But before that we need to do the following calculations

Cost of basket for the year 2011 is

= 5 × 2 + 20 × 0.5

= 10 + 10

= 20

And the base year price index i.e. CPI is 100

Now

Cost of same basket in year 2012 is

= 5 × 2.10 + 20 × 0.90

= 10.5 + 18

= 28.5

Now  

CPI in 2012 is

= ($28.5 ÷ $20) × 100

= 142.5

So,

Inflation rate is

= (142.5 ÷ 100) - 1

= 1.425 - 1

= 0.425

= 42.5%

Sales $ 576,000 $ 491,500 Variable costs 189,000 260,500 Traceable fixed costs 173,500 196,400 Allocated common corporate costs
Maru [420]

Answer:

$(18,900)

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what the elimination of the West Division would result in an overall company net operating income (loss)

Using this formula

Net operating income (loss) = Net operating income of East division -Allocated common cost to West division

Let plug in the formula

Net operating income (loss)= $ 89,600 - $108,500

Net operating income (loss)= $(18,900)

Therefore the elimination of the West Division would result in an overall company net operating income (loss) of $(18,900)

Suppose a recent and widely circulated medical article reports new benefits of exercise. Simultaneously, the price of the parts
Reptile [31]

Answer:

Equilibrium quantity increases; Equilibrium price is indeterminate.

Explanation:

If a new article reports that there are many benefits of exercise, this will increase the demand for exercise bikes and shifts the demand curve rightwards.

At the same time, there is a fall in the price of parts of exercise bikes which reduces the cost of production of exercise bikes. Now, the producer will be able to produce more exercise bikes, so the supply of exercise bikes increases and shifts the supply curve rightwards.

Therefore, there is an increase in the equilibrium quantity of exercise bikes and the impact on equilibrium price is indeterminate because that will be dependent upon the magnitude of the shift of demand and supply curve.
