Answer: Janie must pay an ad valorem tariff on the extra $200

Explanation:

Coming in from Italy, the US Government will allow Janie to bring in $800 worth of Jewelry into the country. The rest will be charged a Customs Duty or Tariff.

Customs duties are charged by the Government on imported goods as a way to reduce trade on imports which would in theory stimulate purchasing from domestic companies. It also brings in revenue for Government.

Customs duties are usually ad valorem in nature which means that they are charged as a percentage of the good's value. In this case that percentage will probably be 3% as the value is less than $1,000.

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer: $20,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Singer's original capital = $40,000

McMann's original capital = $60,000

Singer's salary = $12,000

McMann's salary = $18,000

Interest on original capital = 10%

Profit sharing ratio = 3:2

Income of the year = $30,000

McMann's share of the income:

Salary = $18,000

Interest = $6,000

Singer's share of the income:

Salary = $12,000

Interest = $4,000

Therefore,

Remainder = $30,000 - $40,000

= -$10,000

Hence, remainder will be divided among these two partners in 3:2 ratio.

So,

McMann's share of remainder = $\frac{2}{5}\times10,000$

= -$4,000

Therefore, McMann's share of the income:

= Salary + Interest + remainder

= $18,000 + $6,000 + (-$4,000)

= $20,000

Malkin corp. has no debt but can borrow at 8.75 percent. the firm’s wacc is currently 16 percent, and there is no corporate tax.

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

16%

17.3%

23.25%

16%

Explanation:

WACC is the average cost of capital of the firm based on the weightage of the debt and weightage of the equity multiplied to their respective costs.

As have the cost of capital, we need to calculate the cost of equity.

Cost of Capital = (Cost of Equity x Weightage of equity) + (Cost of Debt x Weightage of Debt)

No Debt

16% = (Cost of Equity x 1 ) + (8.75% x 0)

16% = Cost of Equity + 0

Cost of Equity = 16%

15% Debt and Equity is 85% (100%-15%)

16% = (Cost of Equity x 85% ) + (8.75% x 15%)

0.16 = (Cost of Equity x 0.85) + 0.013125

0.16 - 0.013125 = Cost of Equity x 0.85

0.146875 = Cost of Equity x 0.85

Cost of Equity = 0.146875 / 0.85 = 0.17279

Cost of Equity = 17.3%

50% Debt and Equity is 50% (100%-50%)

16% = (Cost of Equity x 50% ) + (8.75% x 50%)

0.16 = (Cost of Equity x 0.50) + 0.04375

0.16 - 0.04375 = Cost of Equity x 0.50

0.11625 = Cost of Equity x 0.50

Cost of Equity = 0.11625 / 0.50 = 0.2325

Cost of Equity = 23.25%

WACC for b and c are 16%
