Answer:
$12,500
Explanation:
Differential revenue = Alternative A revenue - Alternative B revenue

Answer:
b. a close corporation
Explanation:
A closed corporation refers to a company in which shares are held by select few individuals who usually are closely linked with business. Such form of a company is also referred to as family corporation.
In these form of corporations, the investments from outsiders are closed i.e from general public and thus referred to as a close corporation. Shareholding belong to owners or family members in most of the cases.
Such firms are not listed on stock exchanges and hence do not permit general public to subscribe to their shares. Wherein, any one of the shareholders desires to liquidate his share, the other members buy out such share.
In the given case, Integrated Devices Inc., a private, for profit company is wholly owned by members of the same family. Thus, it represents a close corporation.
Answer:
WACC = 0.08085 or 8.085% rounded off to 8.09%
Option c is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure that can contain one or more of the following components, namely debt, preferred stock and common equity. The formula to calculate the WACC is as follows,
WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate) + wP * rP + wE * rE
Where,
- w represents the weight of each component
- D, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and common equity respectively
- r represents the cost of each component
We first need to calculate the weight of each stock. We know the basic accounting equation is,
Assets = Debt + Equity
We know the debt to equity ratio is 3. Then total assets will be,
Assets = 3 + 1
Assets = 4
Using the CAPM equation, we can calculate the cost of equity.
r = risk free rate + Beta * Market risk premium
r = 0.03 + 1.5 * 0.09
r = 0.165 or 16.5%
WACC = 3/4 * 0.08 * (1 - 0.34) + 1/4 * 0.165
WACC = 0.08085 or 8.085% rounded off to 8.09%
