Answer:

the pre tax cost of debt is 3.98%

Explanation:

The computation of the pre tax cost of debt is shown below;

Pre tax cost of debt is

= (Annual interest + (par value - market price) ÷ (number of years) ÷ (par value + market price) ÷ 2

= (0.05) + ($1,000 - $1,140) ÷ (20) ÷ ($1,000 + $1,140) ÷ 2

= 3.98%

Hence, the pre tax cost of debt is 3.98%

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

And, the same is to be considered

nirvana33 [79]
<span>The effect is a decrease of $7235,640 in the company's retained earnings and cash balance, resulting in a decrease in assets and equity. Before the dividend is actually paid out, the balance sheet will show a debit to its retained earning account of $7,235,640 and a credit to the dividends payable account of $7235,640. After the dividends are paid, the dividend payable account is credited and the dividends payable account is debited in the same amount, and these accounts are no longer shown on the balance sheet.</span>

Sue plans to mix peppermints worth $1.20 per lb with chocolates worth $2.40 per lb to get a 40 lb mix that is worth $1.65 per lb
Lunna [17]

Answer:

Each should be used as follows:

Weight of peppermints = X = 25 lb

Weight of Chocolates = Y = 15 lb

Explanation:

Suppose

Weight of peppermints = X

Weight of Chocolates = Y

So According to given condition

X + Y = 40 (Eq. 1)

1.2X + 2.4Y = 1.65*40

1.2X + 2.4Y = 66 (Eq. 2)

By multiplying  (Eq. 1) with 1.2 we get

1.2X + 1.2Y = 48  (Eq. 3)

Now by subtracting  (Eq. 2) from  (Eq. 3)

(1.2X + 1.2Y) - (1.2X + 2.4Y) = 48 - 66

1.2X + 1.2Y - 1.2X - 2.4Y = -18

1.2X - 1.2X + 1.2Y - 2.4Y = -18 (Rearrange)

-1.2Y = -18

1.2Y = 18

Y = 18/1.2

Y = 15

By placing value of Y in (Eq. 1)

X + 15 = 40

X = 40 - 15

X = 25

<u>Check</u>

1.2X + 2.4Y = 66

1.2 (25) + 2.4 (15) = 66

66 = 66

saveliy_v [14]
<span>A volcano that expels highly viscous magma is a greater threat to life and property because it is more explosives and thus is more difficult or impossible to predict.

Depending on the amount of magma that being erupted, it might take more than ten years for the soil to have good enough composition for plants to grow.</span>
