The company's external equity comes from those funds raised from public issuance of shares or rights. The cost of external equity is the minimum rate of return which the shareholders supply new funds <span>by </span>purchasing<span> new shares to prevent the decline of the market value of the shares. To compute the cost of external equity, we should use this formula:</span>
Ke<span> = (DIV 1 / Po) + g</span>
Ke<span> = cost of external equity</span>
DIV 1 = dividend to be paid next year
Po = market price of share
g = growth rate
In the problem, the estimated dividend to be paid next year is $1.50. The market price is $18.50 and the growth rate is 4%.
<span>Substituting the given to the formulas, we need to divide $1.50 by $18.50 giving us the result of 8.11% plus the growth rate; this would yield to the result of 12.11% cost of external equity.</span>
Answer:
The correct solution is "38,500".
Explanation:
The given values are:
Sales in February,
= $50,000
Sales in March,
= $60,000
Sales in April,
= $70,000
Now,
The total selling and administrative expenses for the month of February will be:
= 
On substituting the values, we get
= 
= 
= 
Answer:
See explanations below
Explanation:
1. Overall contribution margin ratio of the company
= (Total contribution margin / Total sales ) × 100
= ( $113,400 / $162,000 ) × 100
= 70%
2 Company's overall break even point in dollar sales.
= Fixed expenses / Contribution margin ratio
= $82,530 / 70%
= $117,900
3. Contribution format income statement
Claim jumper
Sales $108,000/$162,000 = $0.67 × 100
= 67% × $117,900
= $78,993
Makeover
Sales $54,000/$162,000 = $0.33 × 100
= 33% × $117,900
= $38,907
Claim jumper
Variable expenses
= ($68,120 / $108,000) × $39,880
= $25,154
Makeover
Variable expenses
= ($45,280 / $54,000) × $8,720
= $7,312
• Variable expenses at the point of break even sales = (Break even sales / Original sales ) × Variable expense

Explanation: The first, addressed in Part I, is the administrative cost of deregulation, which has grown substantially under the Telecommunications Act of 1996.Part II addresses the consequences of the FCC's use of a competitor-welfare standard when formulating its policies for local competition, rather than a consumer-welfare standard. I evaluate the reported features of the FCC's decision in its Triennial Review. Press releases and statements concerning that decision suggest that the FCC may have finally embraced a consumer-welfare approach to mandatory unbundling at TELRIC prices. The haphazard administrative process surrounding the FCC's decision, however, increases the likelihood of reversal on appeal.Beginning in Part III, I address at greater length the WorldCom fraud and bankruptcy. I offer an early assessment of the harm to the telecommunications industry from WorldCom's fraud and bankruptcy. I explain how WorldCom's misconduct caused collateral damage to other telecommunications firms, government, workers, and the capital markets. WorldCom's false Internet traffic reports and accounting fraud encouraged overinvestment in long-distance capacity and Internet backbone capacity. Because Internet traffic data are proprietary and WorldCom dominated Internet backbone services, and because WorldCom was subject to regulatory oversight, it was reasonable for rival carriers to believe WorldCom's misrepresentation of Internet traffic growth. Event study analysis suggests that the harm to rival carriers and telecommunications equipment manufacturers from WorldCom's restatement of earnings was $7.8 billion. WorldCom's false or fraudulent statements also supplied state and federal governments with incorrect information essential to the formulation of telecommunication policy. State and federal governments, courts, and regulatory commissions would thus be justified in applying extreme skepticism to future representations made by WorldCom.Part IV explains how WorldCom's fraud and bankruptcy may have been intended to harm competition, and in the future may do so, by inducing exit (or forfeiture of market share) by the company's rivals. WorldCom repeatedly deceived investors, competitors, and regulators with false statements about its Internet traffic projections and financial performance. At a minimum, WorldCom's fraudulent or false
Answer:
The multiple choices are:
A) $46,050 B) $68,590 C) $85,190 D) $29,450 E) $62,650
Option E is the correct option,$62,650
Explanation:
The operating cash flow=net income+incremental depreciation
the operating cash flow=$46050+$16,600=$62650
The incremental taxes have already been factored into the computation of the net income, hence it is,it is expected that the depreciation would just be added to the net income in a bid to ascertain operating cash flow of the business
