"Assuming that PDQ Corporation has annual net sales of $303,000,000 and annual cost of goods sold of $202,000,000, what is the inventory turnover ratio for PDQ Corporation?"
Answer:
2Explanation:
The inventory turnover ratio is defined as the ratio of the cost of goods sold to the average inventory.
Average Inventory = annual net sales - annual cost of goods sold
Average Inventory = $303,000,000 - $202,000,000
Average Inventory = $101,000,000
Given cost of goods sold = $202,000,000
Inventory turnover ratio = cost of good sold/average inventory
Inventory turnover ratio = $202,000,000/$101,000,000
Inventory turnover ratio = 202/101
Inventory turnover ratio = 2
Hence the inventory turnover ratio for PDQ Corporation is 2

A firm's cost of equity is 22%. Its before-tax cost of debt is 13% and its marginal tax rate is 21%. The firm's capital structure calls for a debt-to-equity ratio of 45%. Calculate the firm's cost of capital
Answer:
WACC= 17.95%
Explanation:
Weighted average cost of capital is the average cost of all of the long-term types of finance used by a company weighted according to the that amount of finance used in relation to the total pool of fund.
It is calculated using the formula below:
WACC = (We×Ke) + (Wd×Kd)
Ke-cost of equity- 22%
We- equity weight- 100% - 45% = 55%
Kd-After tax cost of debt-10.3%
Wd- 45%
After tax cost of debt = Before tax ×× (1- tax rate)
After tax cost of debt = 13%× (1-0.21) = 10.3%
Cost of equity = 22%
WACC =(0.55× 22%) + (0.45× 13%)=17.95%
WACC= 17.95%
