Answer:

Operating profit margin = 25.71%

Explanation:

Amount of return on asset = Rate of return x Asset value

Amount of return on asset = 15% x $300,000,000

Amount of return on asset = $45,000,000

Operating profit margin = Amount of return on asset / Sales

Operating profit margin = $45,000,000 / $175,000,000

Operating profit margin = 0.257143

Operating profit margin = 25.71%

Answer:

The WACC is 10.93%

Explanation:

The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure. The capital stricture may be formed of the following components namely debt, preferred stock and common stock. The WACC assigns the weights to each of these components based on the finance provided by each of the above components as a proportion of total capital structure or total assets.

The WACC is calculated by taking the market value of each component. The formula for WACC is as follows,

WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate)  +  wP * rP  +  wE * rE

Where,

  • w represents the weight of each component
  • r represents the cost of each component
  • D, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and Common stock respectively.
  • We take after tax cost of debt. So we multiply rD with (1-tax rate)

Debt = 377000 * 106.5%  = $401505

Preferred stock = 6850 * 90.50  =  $619925

Common stock = 27500 * 70  = $1925000

Total assets = 401505 + 619925 + 1925000  = $2946430

WACC = 401505/2946430 * 7.81% * (1-0.35)  +  619925/2946430 * 6.9%  +

1925000/2946430 * 13.45%

WACC = 0.1093 or 10.93%

A company factored $30,000 of its accounts receivable and was charged a 2% factoring fee. The journal entry to record this trans
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Given that,

Accounts receivable = $30,000

Factoring fee charged = 2%

Therefore,

Factory fee = 2% of Accounts receivable

                   = 2% × $30,000

                   = $600

The amount $600 has to be subtracted from the accounts receivable.

Hence, the journal entry is as follows;

Cash A/c ($30,000 - $600) Dr. $29,400

Factory fee Expense A/c     Dr. $600

      To Accounts Receivable                     $30,000

(To record the account receivable)
