<span>The current state of the US economy is in growing strength with respects to the former cabinet. Globalization is affecting the US economy. Primarily through technology and social feeds. We are in the information Era. As far as jobs, off shoring in our economy was once always a viable option. Now that we have a president who insists on the "American Made" branding has emboldened some companies to minimize their operations abroad and increase facilities at home. I work on software, and my job requires me to be in a wireless world. It is hard to compete with companies who hire third party IT hosts in other countries because it is simply cheaper. But, I find other means for work.</span>

Southern Corporation has a capital structure of 40% debt and 60% common equity. This capital structure is expected not to change
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

so cost of capital =  9.9 %

correct option is a 9.9%

Explanation:

given data

capital structure = 40%

common equity = 60%

tax rate = 34%

pretax cost = 8.5%

pretax cost = 10%

market price = $59

Flotation costs = $3 per share

common stock dividend = $3.15

Dividends expected to grow = 7%

to find out

cost of capital if the firm uses bank loans and retained earnings

solution

cost of retained earning = \frac{dividend* ( 1+growth rate )}{stock price} + growth rate       ........................1

cost of retained earning = \frac{3.15 * ( 1+0.07)}{59} + 0.07

cost of retained earning =0.1271271186

and

cost of capital will be

cost of capital = weight for debit × ( cost of debit  × ( 1 - tax rate ) ) + weight for common stock × cost of common stock

cost of capital = 0.40 × ( 8.5% × ( 1 - 0.34 ) ) + 0.60 × 0.1271271186

cost of capital =  0.0987

so cost of capital =  9.9 %

correct option is a 9.9%

enyata [817]

Answer: $696,000

Explanation:

Given the following;

JULY direct material purchase = $300,000

AUGUST BUDGET

direct material purchase =$480,000

Selling and administrative expenses = $48,000

Depreciation expense = $36,000

Purchase of office equipment = $72,000

Wages expenses = $150,000

Only 70% of the amount of purchases made in a month being paid that month. The remaining 30% paid the next month

Therefore, total Budgeted cash disbursement for the month of August will include ;

30% of July purchase

0.3 × $300,000 = $90,000

70% of August direct material

0.7 × $480,000 = $336,000

Wage expense = $150,000

Office equipment purchase =$72, 000

Selling and administration expenses = $48,000

= $(90,000 + 336,000+ 150,000+72,000+ 48,000) = $696,000.
