Answer to Question 1
Assuming the total sales to be
$10,000
Month 1 = $10,000*30% = $3,000
Cash flow = $3,000 * 97% (cash discount) = $2,910 * 1/1.01 = $2,881
Month 2 = $10,000*50% = $5,000
Cash flow = 5000 * 1/(1.01*1.01) = $4,901
Month 3 = $10,000*10% = $1,000
Cash flow = 1000 * 1/(1.01*1.01*1.01) = $971
Month 4 = $10,000*8% = $800
Cash flow = 800 * 1/(1.01*1.01*1.01*1.01) = $769
2% not received.
Total Cash flows = $9,522
Interest Rate that should be charged by the company so that the cash discount and Credit sales will be the same cost
= (10,000 – 9,522)/10,000
= 4.78%
Answer to Question 2
The formula for calculation of Economic Order Quantity is

S = Annual Demand in units
D = Ordering Cost
H = Carrying Cost
EOQ = ((2*400*101.25)/10)^1/2)
= 90 units
The inventory-related costs are as follows:
· Cost of the product being $50 per unit and for 400 units totaling to $20000 annually
· Carrying cost is 10 per unit per annum 400*10/2= $2000 annually
· Ordering cost= 101.25*400/90= $450 annually
· The total annual inventory cost will be $22450
Answer to Question 3
Cost of debt = 19500*100/300000= 6.5%
Post Tax Cost of debt    = 6.5% * (1-30%)
= 4.55%
Cost of Equity Shares= ((Dividend * Growth)/ market price of share) + Growth
= ((8*105%)/2) + 5% = 9.2%
Cost of Preference Shares = Preference Dividend * 100/ Market Value of Preference Shares
= (10% * 2) *100 / 2.2 = 9.09%
Total Capital = 800,000 + 300,000 + 220,000 = 1,320,000
WACC = (Equity*Ke / Total Capital) + (Debt*Kd/Total Capital) + (Preference Shares * Kp/Total Capital)
(800000*9.2%/1320000) + (300000*4.55%/1320000) + (220000*9.09%/1320000)
WACC = 8.125%
The cost of Preference shares can be calculated based on the book value of preference shares.
Answer to Question 4
Imputation Credit = (Dividend Amount/1-Tax) – Dividend Amount
(a) ((3500/1-30%) – 3500)) = $1,500
Total Taxable Income = $3500 + $1500 = $5,000
No tax as below the taxable limit.
(b) ((21000/1-30%)) – 21000 = $9,000
Total Taxable Income = $21,000 + $9,000 = $30,000
Tax amount = $2,242
(c) ((49000/1-30%)) – 49000 = $21,000
Total Taxable Income = $49,000 + $21,000 = $70,000
Tax amount = $14,297
