Answer:

11.3%

Explanation:

O'Brien has the following data

rRF= 5%

RPM= 6%

b= 1.10%

Therefore the cost of equity can be calculated as follows.

= 5% + 6%(1.05)

= 5% + 6.3

= 11.3%

Hence the cost of equity is 11.3%

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Explanation:

The interest expense would be

= Borrowing amount × annual rate of interest

= $80,000 × 8%

= $6,400

And, the principal would be

= Annual payment - interest expense

= $20,037 - $6,400

= $13,637

The principal balance on January 1, 2019 would be

= Borrowed amount - principal repaid amount

= $80,000 - $13,637

= $66,363

The interest expense would be

= Borrowing amount of 2019 × annual rate of interest

= $66,363 × 8%

= $5,309

And, the principal would be

= Annual payment - interest expense

= $20,037 - $5,309

= $14,728

Building Restoration, Inc. (BRI), enters into a contract to refurbish an old train depot for CasualDining, Inc., to open as Eat
maksim [4K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Substancial performance is a terminology used in contract law. It actually means the degree of performance of a contract work which is not completely or fully finished,but is so nearly equivalent that it would be unfair to deny the contractor the payment agreed upon in the contract. The owner has a right to recover whatever damages he has incurred by reason of the contractor's failure to render full and complete performance.

Building Restoration must have at least substantially performed the it's side of a bargain before they can call on the CasualDining,Inc to perform the their side of the bargain e.g. by paying an agreed amount. What actually constitute substantial performance depends on the circumstances.

Pricing Strategy, Sales Variances Eastman, Inc., manufactures and sells three products: R, S, and T. In January, Eastman, Inc.,
deff fn [24]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Sales price variance = (Actual price - Budgeted price) * Actual units sold

Product R : ($25 - $26) * 123000 = $123000 unfavorable

Product S:($20 - $22) * 162700 = $325400 unfavorable

Product T: ($10 - $20) * 54000 = $540000 unfavorable

Sales volume variance = (Actual units - Budgeted units) * Standard price

Product R : (120000 - 123000) * 26 = $78000 favorable

Product S:(150000 - 162700) * 22 = $279400 favorable

Product T: (20000 - 54000) * 20 = $680000 favorable

Notes:

Actual units:

Product R = $3075000/ $25 = 123000

Product S = $3254000/$20 = 162700

Product T = $540000/$10 = 54000 units

The following information relates to the assets of Westfield Semiconductors as of December 31, 2019. Westfield uses the straight
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

Given the following:

Asset    Acquisition-Cost   Expected-Life    Residual-Value   Time-Used

Land        $104,300                 Infinite               $100,000            10 years

Building     430,000               25 years                30,000             10 years

Machine     285,000                5 years                  10,000              2 years

Patent          80,000                10 years                     0                    3 years

Truck            21,000             100,000 miles           3,000         44,000 miles

Therefore, we have:

Building annual depreciation = ($430,000 - $30,000) / 25 = $16,000

Building net book value (NBV) = $430,000 - (16,000 * 10) = $270,000

Machine annual depreciation = ($285,000 - 10,000) / 10 = $27,500

Machine NBV = $285,000 - ($27,500 * 2) = $230,000

Patent annual amortization = $80,000 / 10 = $8,000

Patent net written down value = $80,000 - ($8,000 * 3) = $56,000

Truck accumulated depreciation = ($21,000 - 3,000) * (44,000 / 100,000) = $7,920

Truck NBV = $21,000 - $7,920 = 13,080
