Answer:

B) 9.47%

Explanation:

debt to equity ratio = 1

equity cost = 0.13

debt cost = 0.09

tax rate = 0.34

first we must calculate the debt to value and equity to value ratios:

debt to value = debt / (debt + equity) = 1 / (1 + 1) = 1 / 2 = 0.5

equity to value = equity / (debt + equity) = 1 / (1 + 1) = 1 / 2 = 0.5

the discount rate should be:

discount rate = (equity to value ratio x cost of equity) + [debt to value ratio x cost of debt x (1 - tax rate)] = (0.5 x 0.13) + [0.5 x 0.09 x (1 - 0.34)]

= 0.065 + 0.0297 = 0.0947 or 9.47%

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

Double-declining balance method

Explanation:

First we have to find the depreciation rate which is shown below:

= One ÷ useful life

= 1 ÷ 4

= 20%

Now the rate is double So, 40%

In year 1, the original cost is $15,000, so the depreciation is $6,000 after applying the 50% depreciation rate

And, in year 2, the depreciation is ($15,000 - $6,000) × 40% = $3,600

And, in year 3, the depreciation is ($15,000 - $6,000 - $3,600) × 40% = $2,160
