Answer:
The Company WACC is 6.1%
Explanation:
WACC is the averge cost of capital that a company bears based on the weights of each financing option available to the company.
First we need to calculate the Market values
Debt = $50 M x $1,050 / $1,000 = $52.5 M
Common Equity = $30 M
Preferred equity = $20 M x $90 / $100 = $18 M
Total Capital = $52.5 M + $30 M + $18 M = $100.5
Now we need to calculte the Cost of each financing option
Cost of Debt
Price of Bond = C x ( 1 - ( 1 + YTM )^-n / r + Face value / ( 1 + YTM )^n
$1,050 = $60 x ( 1 - ( 1 + YTM )^-5 / YTM + $1,000 / ( 1 + YTM )^5
YTM = 4.85%
Cost of Common Equity = 12%
Cost of Preseferred Stock = $5 / $90 = 0.05556 = 5.56%
Now use following fomula to calculte the WACC
WACC = ( Common Equity weight x Cost of Common equity ) + ( Weight of Debt x Cost of Debt x ( 1 - Tax rate ) + ( Weight of Preferred Shares x Cost of Preferred Shares )
Now Place all the valus in the formula
WACC = ( $30 / $100.5 x 12% ) + ( $52.5 / $100.5 x ( 1 - 40% ) x 4.85% ) + ( $18 / $100.5 x 5.56% )
WACC = 3.58% + 1.52% + 1.00% = 6.1%

Ship Co. produces storage crates that require 37.0 meters of material at $0.50 per meter and 0.10 direct labor hours at $12.00 per hour. Overhead is applied at the rate of $18 per direct labor hour. What is the total standard cost for one unit of product that would appear on a standard cost card
Answer:
Standard cost per unit= $21.5
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Ship Co. produces storage crates that require 37.0 meters of material at $0.50 per meter
0.10 direct labor hours at $12.00 per hour.
Overhead is applied at the rate of $18 per direct labor hour.
We need to determine the standard cost per unit:
Direct material= 37*0.5= 18.5
Direct labor= 0.1*12= 1.2
Manufacturing overhead= 0.1*18= 1.8
Standard cost per unit= $21.5
A 20-year-old woman wants to purchase a $100,000 one-year life insurance policy. What should the insurance company charge the woman for the policy if it wants an expected profit of $50?
Answer:
Hello some parts of the question is missing here is the missing part
Age probability of female death
20 0.00060
30 0.00070
40 0.00095
50 0.00300
Answer : $110
Explanation:
Given that the woman is 20 years of age and wants to buy one-year life insurance policy the insurance company would have to charge her considering the probability of female death within 20 years of age
expected profit for insurance company = $50
cost of insurance = $100000
For the company to make a profit of $50 we make use of this relation
x * ( 1 - probability of female death at 20 ) - ( cost of insurance - x ) * probability of female death at 20 = 50
= x *( 1 - 0.00060 ) - ( 100000 - x ) * 0.00060 = 50
= x* ( 0.9994 ) - (60 - 0.00060 x ) = 50
= 0.9994 x - 60 + 0.00060 x = 50
hence x = 50 + 60 = $110

Kingbird Itzek manufactures and sells homemade wine, and he wants to develop a standard cost per gallon. The following are required for production of a 50-gallon batch. 3,360 ounces of grape concentrate at $0.02 per ounce 54 pounds of granulated sugar at $0.55 per pound 60 lemons at $0.90 each 150 yeast tablets at $0.26 each 250 nutrient tablets at $0.14 each 2,400 ounces of water at $0.005 per ounce Kingbird estimates that 4% of the grape concentrate is wasted, 10% of the sugar is lost, and 25% of the lemons cannot be used. Compute the standard cost of the ingredients for one gallon of wine. (Round intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 1.25.)
Answer:
$5.272
Explanation:
The computation of the standard cost of the ingredients for one gallon of wine is shown below:-
But before that we need to do the following calculations
3,360 ounces of grape concentrate at $0.02 per ounce is (Considering 4%)
= 3,360 × $0.02 ÷ 96%
= $70
54 pounds of granulated sugar at $0.55 per pound is (Considering 10%)
= 54 × $0.55 ÷ 90%
= $33
60 lemons at $0.90 each is (Considering 25%)
= 60 × $0.90 ÷ 75%
= $72
150 yeast tablets at $0.26 each is
= 160 × $0.26
= $41.6
250 nutrient tablets at $0.14 each is
= 250 × $0.14
= $35
2,400 ounces of water at $0.005 per ounce is
= 2,400 × $0.005
= $12
Therefore 50 gallon cost is = $70 + $33 + $72 + $41.6 + $35 + $12
= $263.6
So, cost per gallon = $263.6 ÷ 50
= $5.272

Suppose you have $ cash today and you can invest it to become worth $ in years. What is the present purchasing power equivalent of this $ when the average inflation rate over the first years is % per year, and over the last years it will be % per year?
Answer: $900,599.04
Explanation:
The present purchasing power equivalent is the present worth of this investment.
The investment will earn 5% for the first 7 years and then 9% for the next 10.
As there are different rates, the present worth calculation will have to reflect that.
At the end of the first 7 years, the present worth of the invested amount given 10 more years of investing at 9%. The Present worth is;
= 3,000,000(Present worth factor, 9%, 10 years)
= 3,000,000 * 0.4224
= $1,267,200
Then what is the Present worth of $1,267,200 in the current year given that it will be invested for 7 years at 5% to get to $1,267,200.
= 1,267,200 (Present worth factor, 5%, 7 years)
= 1,267,200 * 0.7107
= $900,599.04
For each of the following cases determine the ending balance in the inventory account. a. Jill’s Dress Shop had a beginning balance in its inventory account of $44,500. During the accounting period, Jill’s purchased $88,500 of inventory, returned $5,900 of inventory, and obtained $840 of purchases discounts. Jill’s incurred $1,180 of transportation-in cost and $690 of transportation-out cost. Salaries of sales personnel amounted to $35,500. Administrative expenses amounted to $40,100. Cost of goods sold amounted to $91,300.b. Ken’s Bait Shop had a beginning balance in its inventory account of $8,000. During the accounting period Ken’s purchased $36,900 of inventory, obtained $1,200 of purchases allowances, and received $360 of purchases discounts. Sales discounts amounted to $640. Ken’s incurred $900 of transportation-in cost and $260 of transportation-out cost. Selling and administrative cost amounted to $12,300. Cost of goods sold amounted to $33,900.
Answer:
a) Jill's
beginning inventory = $44,500
purchases = $88,500 - $5,900 - $840 = $81,760
transportation in expenses = $1,180
total inventory costs = $127,440
cost of goods sold = $91,300
ending inventory = $127,440 - $91,300 = $36,140
b) Ken's
beginning inventory = $8,000
purchases = $36,900 - $1,200 - $360 = $38,460
transportation in expenses = $900
total inventory costs = $47,360
cost of goods sold = $33,900
ending inventory = $47,360 - $33,900 = $13,460
Inefficient output and price, few choices for consumers, and rent seeking are all problems associated with
Answer: c. Monopolies.
Explanation:
Because Monopolies have no competition, the main incentive to be efficient is missing. This leads to a situation where Monopolies are not as efficient as they are to be in production as well as price because they will charge a price that does not match the optimal quantity associated with that price.
With no or few competition in the market, consumers will not have a lot of choices on entities to source the good from and there is a problem of Rent seeking with Monopolies as well. Rent seeking for monopolies occurs when they charge people above the price they are to charge if they were in a competitive market. They are therefore making more money than they should at the expense of customers.

"The flexible budget formula is fixed costs $50,000 plus variable costs of $4 per direct labor hour. What is the total budgeted cost at (a) 9,000 hours and (b) 12,345 hours
Answer:
$86,000 and $99,380
Explanation:
The flexible budget formular is fixed at $50,000 plus variable costs
The direct labor hour is $4 per hour
The total budgeted cost at 9,000 hours can be calculated as follows
= $50,000 + ($4×9,000 hours)
= $50,000 + $36,000
= $86,000
The total budgeted cost at 12,345 hours can be calculated as follows
= $50,000 + ( $4×12,345 hours)
= $50,000 + $49,380
= $99,380
Hence the total budgeted cost at 9,000 hours and 12,345 hours is $86,000 and $99,380 respectively
Last year, you purchased a stock at a price of $78.00 a share. Over the course of the year, you received $2.70 per share in dividends and inflation averaged 3.2 percent. Today, you sold your shares for $82.20 a share. What is your approximate real rate of return on this investment?
Answer:
5.65%
Explanation:
Last year a stock of $78.00 was bought
During the period of one year $2.70 was received in dividend and inflation averaged 3.2%
Today the shares was sold for $82.20
The first step is to calculate the nominal return
= ($82.20-$78.00+$2.70)/$78.00
= 6.9/78
= 0.0885×100
= 8.85%
Therefore, the approximate real rate can be calculated as follows
= 8.85%-3.2%
= 5.65%
Hence the approximate real rate of return on this investment is 5.65%
A company has 500 shares of $50 par value preferred stock outstanding, and the call price of its preferred stock is $60 per share. It also has 20,000 shares of common stock outstanding, and the total value of its stockholders' equity is $680,000. The company's book value per common share equals:
Answer:
$32.50
Explanation:
Calculation for the company's book value per common share
Using this formula
Book value per common share =[Stockholders' equity -Preferred shares*Preferred stock Stock price per share/ Shares of common stock outstanding,
Let plug in the formula
Book value per common share= [$680,000 - (500 x $60)]/20,000
Book value per common share=$680,000-$30,000/20,0000
Book value per common share= $650,000/20,000
Book value per common share=$32.50
Therefore the company's book value per common share will be $32.50

Nature's Garden, a new restaurant situated on a busy highway in Pomona, California, specializes in a chef's salad selling for $7. Daily fixed costs are $1,710, and variable costs are $4 per meal. With a capacity of 950 meals per day, the restaurant serves an average of 900 meals each day.Requried:a. Determine the current average cost per meal.b. A busload of 30 Girl Scouts stops on its way home from the San Bernardino National Forest. The leader offers to bring them in if the scouts can all be served a meal for a total of $150. The owner refuses, saying he would lose $0.60 per meal if he accepted this offer. How do you think the owner arrived at the $0.60 figure? Comment on the owner's reasoning.c. A local businessman on a break overhears the conversation with the leader and offers the owner a one-year contract to feed 300 of the businessman's employees one meal each day at a special price of $4.50 per meal. Should the restaurant owner accept this offer? Why or why not?
Answer:
Nature's Garden
a. Determination of the current average cost per meal:
Variable cost per meal = $3,800 ($4 x 950) based on full capacity
Fixed costs per day = $1,710
Total costs = $5,510
Average cost per meal = $5,510/950 = $5.80
b. Girl Scouts' offer of $150 for 30 girls:
Offered price per person = $5 ($150/30)
Projecting a loss of $0.60 per meal, this gives a total loss of $18 ($0.60 x 30)
Projected revenue from the offer = $150 + $18 = $168
Projected revenue per meal = $168/30 = $5.60
Actual revenue to be received per meal = $5.00
Loss of $0.60
The owner arrived at the $0.60 loss because his total costs per meal was $5.60.
c. Since the variable cost per meal is $4, the restaurant owner could accept the offer if the additional 300 meals will not increase his daily fixed costs due to lack of capacity. If the fixed costs increase with this addition, then it may not be reasonable to accept the offer. Based on this offer, the contribution to defraying fixed costs, given present capacity, is only $0.50 ($4.50 - $4) per meal.
Explanation:
Selling price of chef's salad = $7
Daily fixed costs = $1,710
Variable costs per meal = $4
Meals capacity per day = 950
Average meals = 900
Nature's Garden has a fixed cost of $1,710 based on current capacity of 950 meals per day. The fixed cost may increase with increasing capacity. This fact must be borne in mind when making decisions.

Ideally, in effective marketing planning, goals should be _____ in terms of what is to be accomplished and when.
Answer:
The answer is quantified and measurable.
Explanation:
Goals need to be quantified and measurable in effective marketing planning. To determine what needs to be accomplished and when, we must put figures to it. This makes performance measurement easier where variances at the end can be analysed.
For example, one of the marketing goals for bank A might be to onboard 100 new customers every month for a year after the launching of its new mobile app.
This example is quantified and can be measured every month.
Mauro Products distributes a single product, a woven basket whose selling price is $20 per unit and whose variable expense is $17 per unit. The company’s monthly fixed expense is $8,100. Required: If the company's fixed expenses increase by $600, what would become the new break-even point in dollar sales?
Answer:
the new break-even point in dollar sales is $29,000.
Explanation:
Break even point is the level of activity where a firm makes neither a profit nor a loss.
Break even point (dollar sales) = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution Margin Ratio
Where, Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution ÷ Sales
= ($20 - $17) ÷ $20
= 0.30
New Break even point (dollar sales) = ($8,100 + $600) ÷ 0.30
= $29,000
