Answer:

The business moved to Mexico because of a quota established by the U.S.

Explanation:

Quotas are a set <u>minimum</u> or <u>maximum amount</u> of a product that can be imported or exported to a country, as a part of their economic policy. This restriction can be used to <u><em>protect</em></u> domestic industries from foreign competition or to keep a local industry from a <u><em>shortage</em></u> of certain products.

For this particular case, the restriction is an Import quota that limits the amount of sugar that can be brought into the <u>United States</u>. That is why the manufacturer decided to move operations to <u>Mexico</u>, where there is no such restriction.

Trendsetters has a cost of equity of 14.6 percent. The market risk premium is 8.4 percent and the risk-free rate is 3.9 percent.
Karolina [17]

Answer:

The answer is option ( C.) Increase of 1.06 percent

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Cost of equity = 14.6%

Market risk premium = 8.4%

Risk-free rate = 3.9%

Company's beta = 1.4

Now,

Expected Return = Risk-free rate + ( Beta × Market risk premium )

= 3.9% + ( 1.4 × 8.4% )

= 3.9% + 11.76%

= 15.66%

Therefore,

The change in firm's cost of equity capital = 15.66% - 14.6%

= 1.06%

Hence,

The answer is option ( C.) Increase of 1.06 percent
