Answer: C. retailer

Explanation:

Company D is a retailer because retailers are the ones that sell the final product and from the scenario depicted, the final product is ice cream and therefore it being sold by Company D makes them the retailer.

Tier 2 suppliers supply raw materials so that is company A. Tier 1 process raw materials so that is Company B and the manufacturer is evidently Company C which made the ice cream to be sold by D.

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

11.41%

Explanation:

Unlevered beta for new division:

= Levered beta ÷ [1 + (1 - tax) × D/E]

= 1.6 ÷ [1 + (1 - 40%) × (40 ÷ 60) ]

= 1.14

Beta for Faris's new division:

= Unlevered beta × [(1 + (1 - tax) × D/E]

= 1.14 × [1 + (1 - 40%) × (70 ÷ 30)]

= 2.74

Using CAPM,

Cost of equity, re = Rf + (beta × MRP)

                             = 8% + (2.74 × 5%)

                             = 21.71%

WACC:

= (wd × rd) + (we × re )

= (70% × 7%) + (30% × 21.71% )

= 11.41%

A company currently makes a component used in production. The per unit costs incurred to make the component include: Direct mate
elixir [45]

Answer:

The company should make the components because incremental costs are $2 less than the purchase price

Explanation:

The cost of making each unit of component = Direct Labour + Direct Material + Variable Overhead*

*The overhead cost of $4 contains both a fixed and variable element. It has been mentioned that 25% of overhead cost is incremental i.e. it increases with each additional unit produced (marginal cost). The incremental cost is the variable element.

Variable element = $4 x 25% = $1

Fixed element = $4 x 75% = $3

Thus, the cost of making each unit of component = $5 + $2 + $1 = $8,

whereas the cost of purchasing each unit of complement is $10. Hence, the company should produce the component as it is less by $2 ($10 - $8) to produce than it is to purchase.

Two firms, Gene's Gloves and Wally's Wallets, have factories near a lake. Both firms use a chemical for tanning leather. Some of
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Gene's Gloves was given the right to dump 5,000 gallons of harmful chemicals. It will need to spend $10,000 ($1 per gallon x 10,000 gallons) to substitute harmful chemicals for harmless chemicals in order to keep working.

Wally's Wallet was also given the right to dump 5,000 gallons of harmful chemicals. It will need $60,000 ($3 per gallon x 20,000 gallons) to treat those chemicals and turn them harmless in order to keep working.  

If Gene can sell its right to dump 5,000 gallons to Wally, for a price higher than $5,000 but lower than $15,000, both companies would win:

Gene would spend $15,000 in harmless chemicals but it would have between $5,001 and $14,999 in revenue from the selling of "pollution rights".

Wally will spend $45,000 in treating harmful chemicals but it will have to pay Gene between $5,001 and $14,999 for buying their "pollution rights".
