Answer: (a) Fall
(b) Increase
(c) Increase
(d) Unchanged
Explanation:
Suppose there is a competitive market with a downward sloping demand curve and horizontal supply curve. In a competitive market there are large number of buyers and sellers. So, if there is a downward shift in the supply curve, as a result equilibrium price will fall, equilibrium quantity will increase, consumer surplus now become larger and producer surplus remains the same because of the horizontal supply curve.
Answer:
The correct answer to the following question is option E) 9.06% .
Explanation:
Here the cost of equity given is - 11.8%
Pre tax cost of debt- 6.9%
Tax rate- 35%
So the after tax cost of debt - 6.9% x 65%
= 4.485%
The debt to equity ratio - .6
So the weight of debt - .6 / ( 1 + .06 )
= .375
Weight of equity - 1 / ( 1 + .06 )
= .625
Weighted average cost of capital =
Debts cost x weight of debt + Equity cost x weight of equity
= 4.485 x .375 + 11.8 x .625
= 1.681875 + 7.735
= 9.06%
Answer:
approximate YTM = 7.48%
Explanation:
the approximate yield to maturity = {coupon + [(face value - market value)/n]} / [(face value + market value)/2]
approximate YTM = {$80 + [($1,000 - $1,050)/15]} / [($1,000 + $1,050)/2]
approximate YTM = ($80 - $3.33) / $1,025
approximate YTM = $76.67 / $1,025
approximate YTM = 0.0748 ≈ 7.48%
I think the most appropriate answer would be C.
I hope it helped you!
