Answer:
Paraguas should borrow at LIBOR + 2.000% and swap for fixed rate debt.
Lluvia should choose funding in floating rate
Explanation:
Paraguas wants the security of fixed rate borrowing; thus it should borrow at LIBOR + 2.000% and swap for fixed rate debt, in which Libor is 5.500%; their total cost at 7.5% is still lower than Fixed rate 12.0%
Lluvia prefer the flexibility of floating rate borrowing, and its rating is better; then it can enjoy lower cost of borrowing at 5%. However it may face the increase if LIBOR increase later; vice versa if LIBOR decrease, its cost of borrowing is able to reduce also.
<u>TC</u> Units
$64,500 (High) 2,470
} $30,700 } 2000
$33,800( Low) 470
<u>VC</u><u> </u><u>per</u><u> </u><u>Unit</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u> </u> 30 700 ÷ 2000 = $15.35
when 470 units are sold,( substitute vc per unit = 15.35)
TC = FC + VC
33, 800 = FC + ( 15.35× 470)
FC = $ 26 586
Answer:
7,540
Explanation:
Principle is $13,000
Rate is 5.8%
Time is 10 years
Therefore the simple interest can be calculated as follows
= principle × rate × time
= 13,000 × 5.8/100 × 10
= 13,000 × 0.058×10
= 7,540
Hence the simple interest is 7,540
Answer: When assessing the risks of investment, one should consider the political, economic, and legal risks of doing business in either Russia or Poland. The risk in Russia would probably be considered higher than the risk in Poland since Poland has been a member state of the European Union since 1 May 2004, with the Treaty of Accession 2003 signed on 16 April 2003 in Athens as the legal basis for Poland's accession to the EU.
Poland has already gained benefits and stability offered by the EU. Russia, by contrast, is still many years away from even being in a position to be considered by the EU for membership.
