Answer:

Date                   Account Title                                         Debit          Credit

December 31    Postretirement benefit expense       $3,900

                           APBO                                                                       $3,900

Explanation:

Service cost = Ending EPBO / Attribution period

= 63,600 / 20

= $‭3,180‬

Interest cost = Beginning EPBO * Years employed / Attribution period * Interest rate

= 60,000 * 4/20 * 6%

= $‭720‬

Postretirement benefit expense = 3,180 + 720

= $3,900

Credit to Accumulated Postretirement Benefit Obligation (APBO).

What is the proper estimate for the cost of preferred stock in estimating a company's WACC?a. The estimated cost of newly issued
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer: Option A

                       

Explanation: In simple words, WACC refers to the cost of total capital that a company has borrowed form the market in its weighted average form. It includes all sources of debt whether retained earning, equity, debt or preferred stock.  

While calculating WACC the analyst takes the market value of the capital sources into consideration, thus, in case of preferred stock the cost of newly issued preferred shares must be taken as they depict the actual cost that the company has to bear.

In the short run, if average variable cost equals $50, average total cost equals $75, and output equals 100, the total fixed cos
musickatia [10]

Answer: $2500

Explanation:

From the question,

Average variable cost(AVC) = $50

Average total cost (ATC) = $75

Output (Q) = 100

Since Average fixed cost is the difference between the average total cost and the average Variable cost. This will be:

AFC = ATC - AVC

AFC = $75 - $50

AFC = $25

We should note that:

AFC = TFC / Q

TFC = AFC × Q

TFC = $25 × 100

TFC = $2500

Therefore, total fixed cost is $2500
