Answer: 21.63%

Explanation:

The firm's cost of equity capital will be calculated thus:

Market value of assets = $50000

Debt = $12500

Cost of debt = 7%

Unlevered cost of equity = 18%

Then, we'll calculate equity which will be calculated as:

= Market value of assets - Debt

= $50000 - $12500

= $37500

Then, the cost of equity capital will be:

= Unlevered cost of equity + [(Debt/equity) x (Unlevered cost of equity - Cost of debt)]

= 18% + [($12500/$37500) x (18% - 7%)]

= 18% + [0.33 x 11%]

= 18% + 3.63%

= 21.63%

Sam Burke, CPA, finds a material error in his client's previously filed tax return and advises the client on how to correct it.
Anton [14]

Answer:

The answer is: C) Consider his continued association with the client.

Explanation:

The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) issues a professional conduct code that regulates their affiliates' activities. According to AICPA's Responsibilities and Public Interest principles, Sam should not continue to work with this client. Sam cannot maintain a professional conduct if he accepts that his client doesn't correct his prior mistakes. If those prior errors persist, then his job will be negatively affected and then it will his responsibility. Accounting is not something static that begins and ends in one period, past records affect present and future records.

The UK economic climate is important for POD Point. It is considering two options to reduce the impact of falling UK consumer in
vivado [14]

The answer should be 1. Focus on selling to foreign countries.

This is because the article stated that the POD business had a lot more awareness on foreign sales production. They had tons of customers with 20% of their profit coming from Norway, and the rate keeps rising by year 3.

Foreign selling creates product awarness with more people being able to buy the product if overseas, making more profit from more people buying. If it were just sold in the U.S, for example, then not as many people could buy the cars, but foreign production can reach out to MANY more people.
