Palencia Paints Corporation has a target capital structure of 25% debt and 75% common equity, with no preferred stock. Its before-tax cost of debt is 13%, and its marginal tax rate is 40%. The current stock price is P0 = $22.00. The last dividend was D0 = $3.00, and it is expected to grow at a 5% constant rate. What is its cost of common equity and its WACC? Round your answers to two decimal places. Do not round your intermediate calculations.

Answers

Answer:

cost of common equity is 18.64%.

WACC is 15.93 %.

Explanation:

Cost of Equity is the return that is required by providers of Capital in form of Common Stocks.

This can be determined using the Growth Model as the information permits use of such method.

Cost of Equity = Current Dividend / Current Market Price + Expected Growth Rate

                       = $3.00 / $22.00 + 0.05

                       = 0.1864 or 18.64%

WACC = Ke × (E/V) + Kd × (D/V) + Kp × (P/V)

where,

Ke = cost of equity

    = 18.64%

E/V = Weight of Equity

      = 75%

Kd = cost of debt

     = Interest × (1 - market rate)

     = 0.13 × (1 - 0.40)

     = 0.078 or 7.80 %

D/V = Weight of Debt

       = 25%

Therefore,

WACC = 18.64% × 75% + 7.80 % × 25%

           = 15.93 %

Muir Manufacturing produces two popular grades of commercial carpeting among its many other products. In the coming production period, Muir needs to decide, how many rolls of each grade should be produced in order to maximize profit? Each roll of Grade X carpet uses 50 units of synthetic-fiber, requires 25 hours of production time, and needs 20 units of foam backing. Each roll of Grade Y carpet uses 40 units of synthetic-fiber, requires 28 hours of production time, and needs 15 units of foam backing.
The profit per roll of Grade X carpet is $200 and the profit per roll of Grade Y carpet is $160. In the coming production period, Muir has 3000 units of synthetic-fiber available for use. Workers have been scheduled to provide at least 1800 hours of production time (overtime is a possibility). The company has 1500 units of foam backing available for use. Develop a linear programming model for this problem.
1. Define the Decision Variables.
2. Write the Objective.
3. Write the Constraints.

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

A) DECISION VARIABLES :

The decision variables in the question above lies in Muir Manufacturing Company's Production target in the coming production period:

The decision variables are thus:

1) Determining the number of rolls of Grade X carpet to manufacture.

11) Determining the number of Grade Y carpet to manufacture.

2) OBJECTIVES :

The objective is to maximize profit :

Profit per roll of Grade X carpet = $200

Profit per roll of Grade Y carpet = $160

The objective function is thus :

$200x + $160y

C.) THE CONSTRAINTS :

1) Synthetic fibre required:

Grade X = 50 units

Grade Y = 40 units

Total available units = 3000

50X + 40Y ≤ 3000

Production time:

Grade X = 25 hours of production time

Grade Y = 28 hours of production time

Scheduled production time to be provided by workers is atleast 1800 hours (since there is possibility for overtime).

25X + 28Y ≥ 1800

111) Foam backing required:

Grade X = 20 units

Grade Y = 10 units

Total available units = 1500

20X + 10Y ≤ 1500

Each roll of Grade X carpet uses 50 units of synthetic-fiber, requires 25 hours of production time, and needs 20 units of foam backing. Each roll of Grade Y carpet uses 40 units of synthetic-fiber, requires 28 hours of production time, and needs 15 units of foam backing.

A 50-year old customer is in a very low tax bracket. She lives in a state that has one of the highest income tax rates. The customer is seeking income and preservation of capital. She has a 10 year investment time horizon. The best r
ecommendation would be a 10 year maturity:__________

a. Treasury Bond
b. investment grade corporate bond
c. investment grade municipal bond
d. Treasury STRIPS

Answers

Answer:

b. investment grade corporate bond

Explanation:

Credit rating is used to show the reliability of a security. The Investment Grade is a credit rating the is low risk bond. There is low possiblity of default on this type of investment.

Medium rating of A and BBB represent the investment grade corporate bond.

This is an attractive investment for the more conservative investor.

This is an ideal investment choice for the 50-year old customer with very low tax bracket, in a state with high income tax rates. So she is seeking income and preservation of capital.

The best recommendation for the 5o-year-old customer would be 10- year maturity that is known as an investment-grade corporate bond.

Bonds rated "investment-grade" are considered to just have positive significant credit ratings and a low risk of default. Top companies may benefit from their status as investment-grade credits, resulting in lower interest rates.

A corporate or municipal bond with an investment-grade rating has a relatively low risk of default. Companies with a "AAA" rating are considered the least likely to default, according to Standard and Poors.

Businesses that Moody deems to be the least probable to happen start receiving an "Aaa" rank.

Answers

Answer:

$520,000

Explanation:

Kela corporation reports a net income of $450,000

The depreciation is $70,000

A cash of $50,000 was borrowed on a 5-year note payable

Therefore, the total cash inflows from operating activities can be calculated as follows

= Net income+depreciation

= $450,000+$70,000

= $520,000

Hence the total cash inflow from operating activities is $520,000

Answers

Answer:

1. d) a debit to Bank Service Charge Expense

2.d) Some other amount.

Explanation:

1. No journal entries are prepared to record deposits in transit and outstanding checks because these items have already been recorded in the books. Therefore, only one journal entry will be required to record the bank service charge of $7. The bank service charge is an expense and will be recorded by debiting bank service charge expense account and crediting cash by $7.

2. Total amount of outstanding checks  = Balance per bank statement + Deposit in transit - Balance per books - Bank service charge

Total amount of outstanding checks = $3,900 + $700 - $3,100 - $7

Total amount of outstanding checks  = $1,493

Answers

Part of question :

What is the total amount of Marc and Michelle's deductions from AGI?

Answer and Explanation:

Let's assume Marc and Michelle are filing a joint tax return.

Total salaries from Marc and Michelle = $69200+$13950 = $ 83150

interest on corporate bonds which is taxable = $1150

total income = $ 83150+$1150= $84300

deductions include:

The IRA contribution =$ 3150

The alimony to ex wife= $ 2150

Total deduction = $ 5300

Agreegate income= $ 84300-$5300=$79000

Marc and Michelle have options to choose standard deduction of $24000 from AGI or itemised deduction of 2% of AGI=$1580

From here, it is better to take the standard deduction option as it reduces taxable income

Therefore taxable income =$79000-$24000=$55000

Total deduction=$24000

At January 1, 2016, Bonita Industries has beginning inventory of 1500 surfboards. Bonita estimates it will sell 6000 units during the first quarter of 2016 with a 12% increase in sales each quarter. Bonita’s policy is to maintain an ending inventory equal to 25% of the next quarter’s sales. Each surfboard costs $100 and is sold for $150. How much is budgeted sales revenue for the third quarter of 2016

Answers

Answer: $1,128,960

Explanation:

The budgeted sales revenue is the financial estimate of the amount that a company is expecting to make for a particular period of time.

Based on the information given in the question, the budgeted sales revenue for the third quarter of 2016 will be:

= 6000 × (1 + 12%) × (1 + 12%) × $150

= 6000 × (1 + 0.12) × (1 + 0.12) × $150

= 6000 × 1.12 × 1.12 × $150

= $1,128,960
