Answer:
Ford's weighted average cost of capital is 8.22 %
Explanation:
Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is the minimum return that the company expect from a project. It shows the risk of the company.
Calculation of WACC
WACC = Cost of equity + Cost of preferred stock + Cost of debt
Capital Source Market Values Weight Cost Total Cost
equity $ 7 billion 29.17% 13.6% 3.97 %
preferred stock $ 2 billion 8.33% 12% 1.00 %
debt $ 15 billion 62.50% 5.2 % 3.25%
Total $ 24 billion 8.22 %
Cost of equity = Risk free rate + Beta × Risk Premium
= 4% + 1.2 × 8%
= 13.6%
Cost of preferred stock = Dividend/Market Price
= $ 3/ $ 25 × 100
= 12%
Cost of debt = interest × (1- tax rate)
= 8% × (1-0.35)
= 5.2 %
Answer:
$5,000= ending inventory
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Gross margin is normally 40% of sales.
Sales= $25,000
beginning inventory= $2,500
purchases= $17,500
First, we need to determine the cost of goods sold:
COGS= 25,000*0.6= 15,000
Now, using the following formula, we can calculate the ending inventory:
COGS= beginning inventory + cost of goods purchased - ending inventory
15,000= 2,500 + 17,500 - ending inventory
5,000= ending inventory
Answer:
Tires bought by a driver for her personal use- final good
Memory card bought by a photographer-intermediate good
Lenses bought by a camera manufacturer- intermediate good
Tires bought by a car manufacturer-intermediate good
Explanation:
Since tires are for personal use and not used to produce any other good it will be classified as a final good.
A memory card bought by a photographer will be used in creating new pictures, so it will be categorized as an intermediate good.
Similarly, lenses bought by a camera manufacturer will be used for making cameras and tires bought by a car manufacturer will be used for making cars. So both will be classified as a final good.
Answer:
By what percentage did the price of a dozen eggs rise?
- [($2.75 - $0.96) / $0.96] x 100 = 186.46%
By what percentage did the wage rise?
- [($21.26 - $14.28) / $14.28] x 100 = 48.88%
In order to earn enough to buy a dozen eggs, a worker had to work <u>4.04</u> minutes in December 2000 and <u>7.76</u> minutes in December 2015.
- ($0.96 / $14.28) x 60 = 4.04 minutes
- ($2.75 / $21.26) x 60 = 7.76 minutes
Workers' purchasing power in terms of eggs between 2000 and 2015.
- purchasing power in terms of eggs in 2000 = 14.875 dozens of eggs per hour
- purchasing power in terms of eggs in 2015 = 7.76 dozens of eggs per hour
Units produced and sold: 3000 meals
Revenue: $18000
Cost of goods sold: ($13500)
Gross profit: $4500
Administrative Costs: ($2400)
Operating Profit: $2400
Sales Revenue - Cost of goods sold - Administration cost = Operating Profit
Units Produced and sold: 3000+300 meals
Revenue: $18000+ $3.5*300 = 19050
Cost of goods sold: ($13500) + (4500) = ($18000)
Gross profit: $1050
Administrative Costs: ($2400)+($600) = ($3000)
Operating Profit: ($1950)
New operating profit - old operating profit = Change in Operating İncome
-1950-2400 = -$4350
The Operating profit reduced by $4350
