Answer:
$11,560
$5666.661
Explanation:
Given the following :
Bill received from accountant = $17,000
This year's marginal tax rate = 32%
Next year's marginal tax rate = 37%
After tax return on investment = 11%
After tax cost of bill is paid in December :
Billed amount * this year's tax rate
$17,000 * ( 1 - 0.32)
= $17,000 * 0.68
= $11,560
B) After tax cost of bill was paid in January:
Billed amount * next year's tax rate * PV factor
From the present value factor table;
PV factor (1 years, 11%) = 0.9009
Hence,
$17,000 * 0.37 * 0.9009 = $5666.661
Answer:
The company's cost of preferred stock for use in calculating the WACC is 9.65%
Explanation:
For computing the cost of preferred stock, the following formula should be used which is shown below
= Annual dividend based on preferred stock ÷ (Price per share × Flotation cost)
where,
Flotation cost = 1- rate
= 1- 4% = 0.96
= $9.50 ÷ ($102.50 × 0.96)
= $9.50 ÷ $98.4
= 9.65%
The flotation cost should be deducted because it is a one time expense. Thus, it would be minus from price per share.
Hence, the company's cost of preferred stock for use in calculating the WACC is 9.65%

Answer:
Future value= $151,018.51
Explanation:
Future value of money measures how much a present amount of money will be in the future at a given interest rate.
The interest gained on money shows the time value of money. One dollar today is less than one dollar in one year's time
The formula for future value is
Future value = Present value * (1 + rate)^time
As we have two periods in this case (10 years and 20 years)
Future value = Present value * {(1 + rate1)^time1} * {(1 + rate2)^time2}
Future value = 12,500 * {(1 + 0.07)^10} * {(1 + 0.095)^20}
Future value= $151,018.51
