Answer:
The WACC for this project is 10.605%
Explanation:
The WACC or the weighted average cost of capital is the weighted average return that the company is expected to pay its capital providers.The WACC is calculated by multiplying the cost of each component by their respective weights in the capital structure. The WACC is calculated using the following formula,
WACC = wD * (1-tax) * rD + wP * rP + wE * rE
Where,
- wD, wP and wE represents the weight of debt, preferred stock and common equity respectively as a proportion of total capital.
- rD, rP and rE is the cost of debt, preferred stock and equity respectively.
- The (1-tax) is used in debt component to calculate the after tax cost of debt
WACC = 750000/1708000 * (1-0.25) * 0.096 + 78000/1708000 * 0.107 + 880000/1708000 * 0.135
WACC = 0.10605 or 10.605%
Hi there! I think the answer is C, Hope this helps!:D
Answer:
2.12 years
Explanation:
The calculation of the payback period is given below:
<u>
Year CF Cumulative CF
</u>
0 $(1,450,000) $(1,450,000)
1 640,000 (810,000)
2 715,250 (94,750)
3 823,330 728,580
4 907,125 1,635,705
Now payback period is
= 2 + ($94,750 ÷$823,330)
= 2.12 years
Advantages:
<span>Current employees already know the rules, regulations and culture of the organisation.Employees have understanding of how the organisation operates and do not need an induction programme.The organisation knows employees and have detailed records from previous supervisorsOffering opportunities to internal employees may boost the morale of the staff members.Allowing employees to move vertically and horizontally within the organisation could reduce the possibility of her looking for another job.A positive image is created in the organisation</span>
