Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation of the wacc is as followS;

= cost of common stock × weight of common stock + cost of debt × weight of debt × (1 - tax rate)

= 0.16 × 0.70 + 0.08 × 0.30 × (1 - 0.30)

= 0.112 + 0.0168

= 0.1288

= 12.88%

b. The after tax cost of debt is

= 0.08 × (1- 0.30)

= 0.056

So the capital should use the cost of debt

wel

Answer:

The 2016 operating cash flow is $56,905

Explanation:

The computation of the operating cash flow is shown below:

Operating cash flow = Sales - costs - other expenses - depreciation expenses  - taxes + depreciation expense

= $162,500 - $80,000 - $3,300 - $9,000 - $22,295 + $9,000

= $56,905

The interest expense should not be considered in the computation part. Hence, ignored it
