The expected return on the common stock should decrease.

To calculate the new expected return on the common stock, we need to calculate the new value of the common stock and debt. The new value of the common stock is $64 million + $16 million = $80 million. The value of the debt is reduced by $16 million to $20 million.

The new expected return on the common stock is 16.6% * ($80 million/$96 million) = 15.63%.

Therefore, the expected return on the common stock should decrease from 16.6% to 15.63%.

A security that symbolises ownership in a firm is called common stock. Common stock owners choose the board of directors and cast ballots for corporate rules. Long-term rates of return are often higher with this type of stock ownership.

Fixed cost $20,680

Explanation:

Using the high-low method to estimate the amount of fixed cost that is incurred each month

Units Cost

High 207 153,160

LOW 38 45,000

Difference 169 108,160

Variable cost per unit= 108,160/169

Variable cost per unit= 640

Fixed cost = 153,160-207*640

Fixed cost = 20,680

Total estimated cost= 200*640+20,680

Total estimated cost=128,000+20,680

Total estimated cost=148,680

Therefore Total estimated cost will be $148,680 and Fixed cost will be $20,680
