Answer:
- Federal Income tax ⇒ $80
- FICA ⇒ $125.46
- State income tax ⇒ $52.97
- Local deduction - Clark County Income tax ⇒ $29.52
Explanation:
Brent gets paid semi-monthly so his pay per period is:
= 39,360 / (12 months *2)
= $1,640
Based on the table therefore, his federal tax is:
= $80
This figure is based on the intersection between income of $1,640 and 3 withholding allowances.
FICA tax rate is 7.65% so his FICA tax is:
= 1,640 * 7.65%
= $125.46
State income tax = $52.97
Local deduction - Clark County Income tax = $29.52
Total deductions:
= Federal tax + FICA + State income tax + Clark County income tax
= 80 + 125.46 + 52.97 + 29.52
= $287.95

Answer:
Cost of equity = 14.43%
Explanation:
Weigheted Average cost of capital is computed using the formula below:
WACC = (Wd×Kd) + (We×Ke)
Kd= aftre tax cost of debt= 12%× (1-0.4)= 7.2%
Wd =Proportion of debt= 40%
We = proportion of equity = 60%
Ke= cost of equity.
let the cost of equity be "y"
WACC = 11.54
11.54 = (40%× 7.2%) + (60% × y)
0.1154 = 0.0288 + 0.6y
0.1154 - 0.0288 = 0.6y
y =(0.1154 - 0.0288)/0.6
y = 0.1443 × 100
y =14.43%
Cost of equity = 14.43%
Answer:
The balance in the account = $851.8
Explanation:
The future value of a lump sum is the amount expected at a future date when a sum of money is invested today at a particular rate of interest for certain number of years
.
This implies compounding the initial amount invested ($300) at the given interest rate(11%) for 10 years.This will be done as follows:
<em />
FV = PV × (1+r)^(n)
FV-Future value
r- rate of return per period
n- Number of period
PV - 300
r-11%
DATA
FV- ?
PV - 300
n- 10
FV= 300 × 1.11^10 = 851.83
The balance in the account = $851.8
