FarCry Industries, a maker of telecommunications equipment, has 26 million shares of common stock outstanding, 1 million shares of preferred stock outstanding, and 10 thousand bonds. If the common shares sell for $15 per share, the preferred shares sell for $114.50 per share, and the bonds sell for 101 percent of par ($1,000), what weight should you use for preferred stock in the computation of FarCry's WACC

wP = 114.5 / 514.6   = 0.2225 or 22.25%

Explanation:

The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure. The capital structure of a firm can be made up of one or more of the following components namely debt, preferred stock and common equity. The WACC is normally calculated using the market value of these components. The formula for WACC is,

WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate)  +  wP * rP  +  wE * rE

Where,

To calculate the weight that should be assigned to the preferred stock in the calculation of WACC, we need to determine the market value of preferred stock and the market value of the capital structure.

Market Value - Debt = 10000 * 1000 * 1.01  =  $10.1 million

Market Value - Preferred stock = 1 * 114.50  = $114.5 million

Market Value - Common equity = 26 * 15  =  $390 million

Total MV of capital structure = 10.1 + 114.5 + 390  = $514.6

wP = 114.5 / 514.6   = 0.2225 or 22.25%

there are so many examples for that in different areas, like biology experiment carried out in our lab recently.

the correct answer is:

it required the president to inform congress within forty-eight hours of any new troop commitment.

the war powers resolution (1973) is a federal law designed to limit the u.s. president’s ability to initiate or intensify military actions abroad without the approval of the congress.

it establishes that the president can send armed forces into action abroad only by declaration of war by congress, statutory authorization, or in case of a national emergency created by attack upon the united states, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces.

it requires the president to notify congress within 48 hours of sending armed forces to military action.
