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

Suppose that the equilibrium price of a pair of designer Lucky jeans is $300. The government decides that people have a right to
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

$100

Explanation:

A binding price ceiling will artificially set a maximum price for a product, but that doesn't mean that the supplier will be willing to supply goods at that price. Binding price ceilings result in shortages, since the quantity demanded increases, while the quantity demanded decreases. This results in a loss of economic benefit known as deadweight loss.

As seen in the attached graph, the deadweight loss is equal to the area beneath the demand curve and above the supply curve, to the left of the equilibrium price.

In its most recent financial statements, Nessler Inc. reported $80 million of net income and $1,200 million of retained earnings
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

$140 million

Explanation:

Given that,

Ending Retained Earnings = $1,140 million

Beginning Retained Earnings = $1,200 million

Net Income = $80 million

Ending Retained Earnings = Beginning Retained Earnings + Net Income - Dividends

$1,140 million = $1,200 million + $80 million - Dividends

Dividends = $1,200 million + $80 million - $1,140 million

                 = $140 million

Therefore, the dividend of $140 million were paid to shareholders during the year.
