Answer:

WACC = 6.66 %

Explanation:

<em>Weighted average cost of capital is the average cost of all of the long-term types of finance used by a company weighted according to the that amount of finance used in relation to the total pool of fund</em>

WACC = (Wd×Kd)  +  (We×Ke)

After-tax cost of debt = Before tax cost of debt× (1-tax rate)

Kd-After-tax cost of debt = 5%

Ke-Cost of equity = 11.4%

Wd-Weight f debt -74%

We-Weight of equity = 26%

WACC = (0.74× 5%)  + (0.26 × 11.4%) = 6.66 %

WACC = 6.66 %

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Estimated fixed cost is $17,500.

Explanation:

Applying the high-low method, first, we calculated the variable cost per unit of the firm: ( 125,000 - 55,000) / (4,300 - 1,500) = $25 per tutoring hour.

We have : Total cost of a firm = Variable cost per tutoring hour x tutoring hour delivered + fixed cost.

put the number in the formula, using the high point ( using low point will also result in the same result of fixed cost), we have:

125,000 = 25 x 4,300 + fixed cost <=> Fixed cost = 125,000 - 25 x 4,300 = $17,500.

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer: E) Lessors provide a source of financing for lessees.

Explanation:

A Lease is a form of financing because in financing, an entity provides funding in the form of assets whether cash or otherwise to another entity to allow them use to operate their business. The entity that was provided with funding will then pay a periodic payment as a way to pay off the funding.

This is what happens in leases. The Lessor is the owner of the asset and they lease it to the Lessee who then uses it and pays a periodic amount to the Lessor for using the asset.
