Answer:
c. 15.8%
Explanation:
The cost of equity is the WACC (weighted average cost of equity)
WACC formula = wE*rE + wD*rD(1-tax) , whereby
wE = weight of equity = 65%
rE = cost of equity = 20%
wD = weight of debt=35%
rD(1-tax ) = after tax cost of debt =8%
WACC = (0.65 *0.20) + (0.35*0.08)
= 0.13 + 0.028
= 0.158 or 15.8%
Therefore, the overall cost of capital is 15.8%
Answer:
Reorder point = (weekly demand * lead time) + (Z * standard deviation * √lead time) = (294 * 10) + (2.326 * 90 * √10) = 2,940 + 661.99 = 3,602 units
Old safety stock = Z * standard deviation * √lead time = 662 units
new safety stock = 331
331 = Z * 90 * √10
Z = 331 / 284.60 = 1.163
Using Normal distribution function, the new confidence interval is 87.76%
Answer:
total expenditures equal total production.
Explanation:
In the case when the economy is in the short-run equilibrium that means the total expenditures should be equivalent to the total production. In other words, we can say that the expenditure that can be incurred should be equal to the production
Hence, the last option is correct
Answer:
29,000 units
Explanation:
The computation of the number of units produced next year is shown below:
Number of units produced next year = Ending finished goods inventory units + budgeted sales units - beginning finished goods inventory units
where,
Ending finished goods inventory units is 6,000 units
Budgeted sales units is 26,000 units
And, the beginning finished goods inventory units is 3,000 units
So, the number of units produced is
= 6,000 units + 26,000 units - 3,000 units
= 29,000 units
We simply applied the above formula
