Answer: 9.69%

Explanation:

Cost of debt = Yield * ( 1 - Tax)

= 7.5% * (1 - 34%)

= 4.95%

Cost of Preferred stock = Dividend/ Price

= 6/64

= 9.38%

Cost of Equity = risk free rate + beta * (market return - risk free rate)

= 2.3% + 1.21 * (11.2% - 2.3%)

= 13.07%

Total values of capital;

Debt = 75,000 * 1,000 par value = $75,000,000

Preferred stock = 750,000 * 64 = $48,000,000

Common stock = 2,500,000 * 44 = $110,000,000

Total = 75,000,000 + 48,000,000 + 110,000,000

= $233,000,000

WACC = (75,000,000/ 233,000,000 * 4.95%) + (48,000,000/233,000,000 * 9.38%) + (110,000,000/233,000,000 * 13.07%)

= 1.59% + 1.93% + 6.17%

= 9.69%

Answer:

$1,774.2

Explanation:

Compute the accumulated amount in the account on the date of last deposit'

Formula used to find out the future value ordinary annuity is:

Future value factor of ordinary annuity (FVF-0A =_{n,i} ) = \frac{1-(1+i^)^ {n} }{i}

1- oily Future value of ordinary annuity (FV-OA) = R (FVF-0A_{n,i} )

Where:

R = annual return (ordinary annuity)

(FVF-0A_{n,i} ) = future value of an ordinary annuity of I for n periods at i interest

Substituting the values:

Future value of ordinary annuity (FV-OA) = R (FVF-0A_{n,i} )

                                                             = $50 (FVF-OA 12_{2.5X 12\frac{12}{12}  }  )

                                                              =$50 X 34.7849

51 X 34.7849\\=1,774

Explanation:

A. Calculation for Jon’s total revenues

Jon's total revenue = Amount of fees per person × Number of persons

Let plug in the formula

Jon's total revenue = $1,200 × 850

Jon's total revenue=$1,020,000

B. Calculation for Jon’s explicit costs

Using this formula

Explicit costs = Amount of money that goes for instructors, maintenance, equipment,insurance, depreciation ×Number of persons

Let plug in the formula

Explicit costs= $800 ×850

Explicit costs =$680,000

C. Calculation for the his accounting profit

Accounting profit = Amount of Revenue - Explicit costs

Let plug in the formula

Accounting profit= $1,020,000 - $680,000 Accounting profit=$340,000

D. Calculation to List 2 in numbers 2 implicit costs that Jon has not included

Based on the information given we were told that he is foregoing an amount of $92,000 as wage and 1.5% interest on his amount of $200,000 which is a corporate bonds to start the business.

Hence

Jon total opportunity costs = $92,000 + (1.5%×$200,000)

Jon total opportunity costs = $92,000 +$3,000 Jon total opportunity costs=$95,000.

E. Calculation for Jon’s pure economic profit (or loss) in numbers

Using this formula

Economic profit = Accounting profit - opportunity costs

Let plug in the formula

Economic profit = $340,000-$95,000

Economic profit = $245,000
