Answer:

The correct answer is: maximized; reducing; increasing.

Explanation:

An oligopoly market is a market structure in which there is a small number of firms. The business decisions of each firm affect its competitors. There is no restriction on entry and exit of firms. There is a high degree of competition between firms.  

The firms can maximize their profits if they collude and act like a monopoly. They can earn monopoly profits by reducing the level of output and increasing the price of products.

You are a finance intern at Chambers and Sons and they have asked you to help estimate the company's cost of common equity. You
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Cost of equity, re= 0.098356 or 9.84 %

Explanation:

D1 = $ 1.25

P0 = $ 27.50

gL = 5 % = 0.05

F = 6 % = 0.06

Cost of equity, re can be calculated using the formular below:

Cost of equity, re = D1/ {P0 x (1- F)} + gL

                             = $ 1.25 / {$ 27.50 x (1- 0.06)} + 0.05

                             = $ 1.25 / ($ 27.50 x 0.94) + 0.05

                             = $ 1.25 / 25.85 + 0.05

                           = 0.048356 + 0.05

Cost of equity, re= 0.098356 or 9.84 %

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The difference between two WACC is 1.2%.

Explanation:

As we know that

WACC = Ke * Ve / (Ve + Vd (1-Tax))    +   Kd * Vd*(1-tax) / (Ve + Vd*(1-Tax))

Using the Book Value Method:

WACC =             14% *$65 / ($65m + $45m (1-40%))

                    + 6% *$45m*(1-.4) / ($65m + $45m (1-40%))

WACC = 10%  + 1.8% = 11.8%

<u>Using the market value method:</u>

Market Value of Common Stock = Common Shares * Market value per share

Market Value of Common Stock = 10 million * $22.5 per share = $225m

WACC =             14% *$225 / ($225m + $50m (1-40%))

                    + 6% *$50m*(1-.4) / ($225m + $50m (1-40%))

WACC = 12.35%  + 0.7% = 13%

The difference between two WACC is 1.2%.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The number of units the company would have to manufacture during the year would be 780,000 units

Explanation:

To find out how much purchase is made, first we have to calculate the production level. The equation for production level is shown below:

Production level = Closing stock of finished goods + Sales - Opening stock of finished goods

= 76,000 + 730,000 - 26,000

= 780,000 units

Rest cost like opening and ending balance of raw material , required gram is irrelevant for computation part. Thus, it is not considered.

Hence, The number of units the company would have to manufacture during the year would be 780,000 units
