In the capital markets (question content area bottom part 1), stocks and bonds are traded.

What Are the Capital Markets?

On capital markets, savings and investments are exchanged between suppliers and people in need. Banks and investors are frequently referred to as suppliers because they can offer loans or investments. Corporations, governments, and private citizens are all looking for funding in this market. Capital markets are made up of primary and secondary markets. The two most well-known capital markets are the stock market and the bond market. They want to improve transactional efficiency by bringing buyers and sellers together and provide a platform for trading securities.

Croft Corporation has a target capital structure of 70 percent common stock and 30 percent debt. Its cost of equity is 16 percen

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

13.02%

Explanation:

Debt = 30% and Common stock = 70%

Cost of equity is 16% and debt is 8%

Tax is 24%

WACC = Cost of equity*Weight of equity + After tax cost of debt*Weight of debt

WACC = (0.16*0.70) + (0.08*(1-0.24)*0.30)

WACC = 0.112 + 0.01824

WACC = 0.13024

WACC = 13.02%

So, the the company's WACC is 13.02%

A manufacturer of handcrafted wine racks has determined that the cost to produce x units per month is given by upper c equals 0.

Fantom [35]

Answer:

The cost per month is increasing at a rate $365.

Explanation:

Differentiation Formula

$\frac{d}{dx}(x^n)= nx^{n-1}$
$\frac{d}{dx}(a)=0$ [ where a is a constant]
$\frac{d}{dx}(ax^n)=a \frac{d}{dx}(x^n)= anx^{n-1}$

Given that,

A manufacturer of handcrafted wine racks has determined that the cost to produce x units per month is given by

$c=0.2x^2+10,000$ .

Again given that,

the rate of changing production is 13 unit per month

i.e $\frac{dx}{dt}=13$

To find the cost per month, we need to find out the value $\frac{dc}{dt}$ when production is changing at the rate 13 units per month and the production is 70 units.

$c=0.2x^2+10,000$

Differentiating with respect to t

$\frac{d}{dt}(c)=\frac{d}{dt}(0.2x^2)+\frac{d}{dx}(10,000)$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dc}{dt}=0.2\frac{d}{dt}(x^2)+\frac{d}{dx}(10,000)$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dc}{dt}=0.2\times 2x^{2-1}\frac{dx}{dt}+0$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dc}{dt}=0.4x\frac{dx}{dt}$

Plugging $\frac{dx}{dt}=13$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dc}{dt}=0.4x\times 13$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dc}{dt}=5.2x$

$\frac{dc}{dt}|_{x=70}=5.2\times 70$ [ plugging x=70]

=364

[ The unit of c is not given. Assume that the unit of c is dollar.]

The cost per month is increasing at a rate $365.

AysviL [449]

This was a form of positive reinforcement. She has been conditioned to work harder when she receives the praise, because she enjoys hearing this from her superiors. When the reward is given to her, the cycle continues: more praise leads to harder work, which leads to even more praise.

Beale Manufacturing Company has a beta of 1.8, and Foley Industries has a beta of 0.80. The required return on an index fund tha

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

3.5%

Explanation:

We will apply asset pricing model to calculate cost of equity (required rate of return). The capital asset pricing model is stated as below:

Cost of equity = Risk-free rate + Beta x Market risk premium

Putting all the number together, we have:

Cost of equity (Beale) = 5.5% + 1.8 x (9% - 5.5%) = 11.8%

Cost of equity (Foley) = 5.5% + 0.8 x (9% - 5.5%) = 8.3%

Cost of equity (Beale) - Cost of equity (Foley) = 11.8% - 8.3% = 3.5%

Note: You can also do quick calculation as below:

Cost of equity (Beale) - Cost of equity (Foley) = (Beta of Beale - Bete of Foley) x Market risk premium = (1.8 - 0.8) x (9% - 5.5%) = 3.5%

Gabriele Enterprises has bonds on the market making annual payments, with eight years to maturity, a par value of $1,000, and se

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Coupon rate = 5.8%

Explanation:

The price of a bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash flows discounted at its yield.

So we will need to work back to ascertain the coupon rate

Step 1

Calculate the PV of redemption value and PV of interest payments

PV of Redemption

= 1.067^(-5) × 1000

=723.06

PV of the annual interest rate

= price of the bond - PV of redemption

= $964- 723.06

= 240.934

Step 2

Calculate the interest payment

Interest payment = PV of redemption value / annuity factor

Annuity factor =( 1 -(1+r)^(-n) )/r

Annuity factor at 6.7% for 5 years

Factor =( 1-1.067^(-5) )/0.067

= 4.1333

Interest payment = PV of the annual interest rate / Annuity factor

Interest payment=

=240.93/4.1333

=58.290

Step 3

Calculate the coupon rate

Coupon rate = interest payment/ par value

Coupon rate = (58.290/1000) × 100

= 5.8%

Coupon rate = 5.8%
