Yes, it is.
I think it is very fair to say that People who work enough hours should at least should not worry about basic needs such as foods, shelter, education, and health. The government could do this through various programs such as minimum wage of a different variant of welfare programs.

Given the following information: Percent of capital structure: Preferred stock 10 % Common equity (retained earnings) 40 Debt 50
sasho [114]

Answer: 8.23%

Explanation:

Firstly, we will calculate the cost of debt which will be:

= Yield (1-Tax rate)

= 9% × (1-0.34)

= 9% × 0.66

= 5.94%

Then, the Cmcost of preferred stock will be:

= 7/(104-9.40)

= 7/(94.6)

= 7.39%

We will also get the value of the cost of equity which will be:

= (Dividend expected common/Price common) + growth rate

= (2.50/76) + 8%

= 3.29% + 8%

= 11.29%

For Debt:

Cost after tax: 5.94

Weight = 50%

Weighted cost = 5.94 × 50% = 2.97

For Preferred stock:

Cost after tax: 7.39

Weight = 1%

Weighted cost = 7.39 × 10% = 0.74

For Common equity

Cost after tax: 11.29

Weight = 40%

Weighted cost = 11.29 × 40% = 4.52

Weighted average cost of capital = 2.97 + 0.74 + 4.52 = 8.23%

Which of the following is not a characteristic of money?
Llana [10]

Answer:

This question is incomplete, here are the missing answers:

<em>a. medium of exchange</em>

<em>b. unit of account</em>

<em>c. backed by a precious metal</em>

<em>d. store of value</em>

<u>The answer is </u><u>c.</u>

Explanation:

Money has three general functions (characteristics):

- <em>medium of exchange</em> - Mainly created as the substitute of barter, money has the elementary use as an intermediary when exchanging goods or services.

- <em>unit of account</em> -  In order to compare the value of certain goods and services, it is essential to measure them. This is where money applies as unit of account.

- <em>store of value </em>- Given that the money is stable (purchasing power and limited inflation), it is a general option for storing value. That means it can always be easily exchanged into goods or services, no matter the time.

According to basic elimination, <u>c. is the correct answer</u>. Also, it is also known that <em>backing money with gold</em> or silver reserves is an old practice which is irrelevant for most currencies nowadays. Today, the government is backing up the value of its currency. Such money is called <em>fiat money</em>.
