Romashka [77]

Answer:

$40.79 per share and $52.90 per share

Explanation:

Cost of Debt (Kd) = Wd * Rd (1 - T)

Cost of Debt for Vandell Corporation is $7.30 * (1 - 0.40) = 4.38%

Cost of Equity (Ke) = Rf + \beta * Rp

Cost of Equity for Vandell Corporation is 6 + 1.10 * 7 = 13.70%

Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) = Wd * Kd + We * Ke

Cash Flow of Firm = $2.5m + $3.2m + $3.5m + $3.57m = $12.77

Weight of Equity = $8.94

WACC = 30% * 4.38% + 70% * 13.70% = 10.9%

CashFlows after discounting synergy will be = $40.79

A firm's database showed that the average value of all inventory items for the year was $7,650. The cost of goods sold was repor
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

We know the average inventory was 7,650 and the cost of goods sold through  out the yer were 76,500.There are about 52 weeks in a year. If the company closes for 2 weeks, then they are in business for 50 weeks a year.

If we divide the cost of goods sold by the number of weeks that the company is open, we get what is the cost of goods sold each week.

76,500/50= 1,530

The company has 1,530 of cost of goods sold each week. And their average inventory is of 7650 so if we divide average inventory by the cost of goods sold each week, we will get how many weeks of supply is held in inventory.

7650/1530=5

The company holds 5 weeks of supply in inventory.
