Green Roof Foods currently has a debt-to-equity ratio of .63, its cost of equity is 13.6 percent, and its pretax cost of debt is 7.8 percent. The tax rate is 35 percent and the risk-free rate is 3.1 percent. The firm's preferred capital structure consists of 50 percent debt. What discount rate should be assigned to a new project the firm is considering if the project is equally as risky as the overall firm and will be financed solely with equity?
a. 7.80%.
b. 9.76%.
c. 5.07%.
d. 9.34%.
e. 10.70%.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

d.9.34%

Explanation:

The formula for the weighted average cost of capital is provided below as a starting point for solving this question:

WACC=(weight of equity*cost of equity)+(weight of debt*after-tax cost of debt)

weight of equity=1-debt %=1-50%=50%

weight of debt=50%

cost of equity=13.6%

after-tax cost of debt=7.8%*(1-35%)

after-tax cost of debt=5.07%

WACC=(50%*13.6%)+(50%*5.07%)

WACC=9.34%

The discount rate is computed based on the target or preferred capital structure

Company A has 800 employees, and it decides to grant each of the employees 50 share options as part of its new rewards plan. The options are exercisable over 5 years and subject to a 3-year service condition. The fair value of each option at the grant date is $16. The company estimates that 80% of its employees will meet the service condition required for receiving the options. Calculate the total share-based payment expense for Company A assuming that 80% of the employees actually meet the service condition.

Answers

Answer:

$512,000

Explanation:

Because the service condition is 3 years, the total share-based payment expense will be recognized over 3 years. The expense recognized in each year is calculated as:

Year 1 = 50 options x 800 employees x 80% x $16 x 1/3 years = $170,667

Year 2 = 50 options x 800 employees x 80% x $16 x 2/3 years - $170,667 = $170,667

Year 3 = 50 options x 800 employees x 80% x $16 x 3/3 years - $170,667 x 2 = $170,667

Total share-based payment expense = $170,667 + $170,667 + $170,667 = $512,000

A company issues bonds at par on April 1. These 9% bonds have a par value of $100,000 and pay interest annually. April 1,is four months after the most recent interest payment date. How much total cash interest is received on April 1 by the bond issuer

Answers

Answer: $3000

Explanation:

From the information given, we are told that a company issues bonds at par on April 1 and that these 9% bonds have a par value of $100,000 and pay interest annually. April 1,is four months after the most recent interest payment date.

The total cash interest that is received on April 1 by the bond issuer will be:

= $100000 × 9% × 4/12

= $100,000 x 0.09 x ⅓

= $3,000

a. Contribution margin ratio (Enter as a whole number.) ______ %
b. Unit contribution margin (Round to the nearest cent.) $_______ per unit
c. Operating income $______

Answers

Answer:

a. 0.34 or 34 %

b. $11.22

c. $134,680

Explanation:

Unit Contribution Margin = Sales per unit  - Variable Costs per unit

                                            = $33.00 - $21.78

                                            = $11.22

Contribution margin ratio = Contribution ÷ Sales

                                          = $11.22 ÷ $33.00

                                          = 0.34

Operating Income = Contribution - Fixed Cost

                               = ($11.22 x 24,000 units) - $134,600

                               = $134,680

Supervisor: In general, half of all customers you speak to will ask about any upcoming pricing discounts or promotions. Of those who do ask, only 20% qualify for the discount. Employee: So that means if I speak to 300 customers, __________ will qualify for the discount.

Answers

Answer: 30 people

Explanation:

In general, only half of those spoken to will ask about upcoming discounts so out of 300, the number that will ask for discounts is:

= 300 / 2

= 150 people

Out of these 150 people who ask about upcoming discounts, only 20% will qualify. The number that will qualify is:

= 150 * 20%

= 30 people

Several years ago, Alcoa was effectively the sole seller of aluminum because the firm owned nearly all of the aluminum ore reserves in the world. This market was not perfectly competitive because this situation violated the:

Answers

Answer:

price-taking assumption.

free entry assumption.

Explanation:

A perfectly competitive market is one in which different firms compete for consumers of their products. The characteristics of the perfectly competitive market are:

- products are nearly identical

- all the firms are price takers. That is they are not able to determine price independently

- buyer knowledge of information about products is perfect and available to all

- free entry and exit to the market

- resources are perfectly mobile

In the given scenario above two of these rules are not obeyed.

Alcoa was effectively the sole seller of aluminum because the firm owned nearly all of the aluminum ore reserves in the world.

So they determine the price ( they are not price takers)

Also since they own nearly all the aluminium reserves there is no free entry for new firms

Explanation:

To begin with, in the field of behavioral psychology and business management the concept known as "Reinforcement" refers to the action or process of changing or keeping someone's behavior by the action of having an specific reaction that will be negative or positive accepted by the individual whose behavior we are looking to change or maintain.

The negative reinforcement refers to the process of producing a consequence with the purpose of avoiding or trying to stop certain stimulus so that the individual will stop that behavior in order to avoid the consequence.
