Answer: b

Explanation:

Answer:

B

Explanation:

As more consumers move in, the demand curve for the store's products would increase (shift to the right) as it is influenced by factors other than price.

While option A could be an eventual outcome, it would only follow an increase in Demand. Note that a change in price would result in movement along the curve.

There is not sufficient information to support Option C

Option D is wrong because higher demand would result in higher revenues, assuming all else remains constant.

Western Electric has 34,000 shares of common stock outstanding at a price per share of $83 and a rate of return of 12.80 percent
grin007 [14]

Answer:

11.03 %

Explanation:

Cost of Capital = Cost of equity x Weight of Equity + Cost of Preferred Stock x Weight of Preferred Stock  + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt.

where,

Cost of equity =  12.80 %

Cost of Preferred Stock = 8.20 %

Cost of Debt =  8.20 x (1 - 0.40) = 4.92 %

also,

Total Market Value = 34,000 x $83 + 7,500 x $97.00 + $416,000 x 113%

                                = $2,822,000 + $727,500 + $470,080

                                = $4,019,580

Weight of Equity = $2,822,000 ÷ $4,019,580 = 0.70

Weight of Preferred Stock = $727,500 ÷ $4,019,580 = 0.18

Weight of Debt = $470,080 ÷ $4,019,580 = 0.12

therefore,

Cost of Capital = 12.80 % x 0.70 + 8.20 % x 0.18 + 4.92 % x 0.12

                         = 11.03 %

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": The proceeds of the bond issue entirely as debt.

Explanation:

Under the U.S. General Accepted Accounting Principles (<em>GAAP</em>) the issuance costs of bonds are ignored for reporting purposes but the amount of sales revenues is recorded as debt. The amortization of the bond can be calculated using the <em>effective interest method</em> or the <em>straight-line method</em>.

1. Sony has 12 core segments in its business. Is this too many or not enough? Are today’s companies diversified like they used t
mestny [16]

Answer:

1) This question is about whether diversification is good or bad for a large corporation. Whether diversification can be considered good or bad depends on the corporation itself, there is no one answer fits all. In this case, Sony is divided into 12 segments or divisions and each of them generates their own cash flows and offers their own products or services.

High tech companies generally tend to diversify a lot because they need to continuously produce innovative products or improve their existing ones. E.g. Google got so large and diversified that it turned into Alphabet which owns more than 200 companies (most of them through acquisitions). Sony's largest revenue sources are gaming services, financial services and home entertainment.

When we think about Sony we probably think about consumer electronics, the Playstation or even movies, but in order to be profitable, Sony had to expand and diversify. Sony's revenues are shifting from consumer electronics to services (including financial, gaming, network, music and movies), so that means that their diversification model actually worked.

2) Sony's goal with Future Lab is to create customer value and new lifestyles, whether they are able to do so depends on how well they work it out. Future Labs is based on San Francisco, and it should serve as a place where innovative prototypes should be tested by real users. The goal is that Sony can learn from actual real life user experiences in order to improve their products and services. The real life customers and users that want to participate in Sony's program must pay a fee for doing so, but they can also experience prototypes before anyone else.
