Answer:

ABC return on equity 10.27%

XYZ return on equity   11.45%

WACC ABC same as has no debt: 10.27

WACC XYZ 10.72500%

Explanation:

550,000 - 275,000= 275,000 debt

275,000 x 10% = 27,500 interest expense

EBIT 59,000 - 27,500 interest expense= 31,500

XYZ return on equity: 31,500 / 275,000 = 0.11454545 = 11.45%

ABC return on equity: 59,000 / 550,000 = 0.102727 = 10.27%

XYZ WACC:

WACC = K_e(\frac{E}{E+D}) + K_d(1-t)(\frac{D}{E+D})  

Ke 0.1145

Equity weight 0.5

Kd 0.1

Debt Weight 0.5

t 0  (we are told to ignore taxes)

WACC = 0.1145(0.5) + 0.1(1-0)(0.5)  

WACC 10.72500%

Swifty Enterprises reported cost of goods sold for 2020 of $1,453,700 and retained earnings of $5,392,600 at December 31, 2020.
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

Corrected cost of goods sold $1,388,760

Corrected retained earnings $5,354,720

Explanation:

First, we need to determine corrected cost of goods sold

Corrected cost of goods sold at December 31, 2020

= Beginning inventory - Purchases - Ending inventory

= $1,453,700 - [$102,820 - $37,880]

= $1,453,700 - $64,930

= $1,388,760

The December 31,2020 corrected retained earnings would be computed as;

= Ending retained earnings - Overstated ending inventories at December 31, 2020

= $5,392,600 - $37,880

= $5,354,720
