Answer:

Cost of equity, re= 0.098356 or 9.84 %

Explanation:

D1 = $ 1.25

P0 = $ 27.50

gL = 5 % = 0.05

F = 6 % = 0.06

Cost of equity, re can be calculated using the formular below:

Cost of equity, re = D1/ {P0 x (1- F)} + gL

                             = $ 1.25 / {$ 27.50 x (1- 0.06)} + 0.05

                             = $ 1.25 / ($ 27.50 x 0.94) + 0.05

                             = $ 1.25 / 25.85 + 0.05

                           = 0.048356 + 0.05

Cost of equity, re= 0.098356 or 9.84 %

Great Western Southern purchased $525,000 of equipment four years ago. The equipment is seven-year MACRS property. The firm is s
tester [92]

Answer: $153,782.70

Explanation:

The MACRS allowance percentages are as follows, commencing with Year 1: 14.29, 24.49, 17.49, 12.49, 8.93, 8.92, 8.93, and 4.46 percent.

In 4 years, the depreciation would be:

= Cost price * (4 year deprecation)

= 525,000 * (14.29% + 24.49% + 17.49% + 12.49%)

= $360,990

Book value :

= 525,000 - 360,990

= $164,010

Gain (loss) = Sale price - Book value

= 150,000 - 164,010

= ($14,010)

Tax payable = (14,010) * 27%

= ($3,782.70)

After-tax cash flow:

= Selling price - Taxes

= 150,000 - (-3,782.70)

= $153,782.70

<em>Note: If there are options, beware of rounding errors and pick nearest option. </em>
