For each of the following pairs of goods, state whether the cross-price elasticity is likely positive, negative, or zero. Explai
ioda

Answer:

a. Hulu and Netflix.

Positive. They are close substitutes

Hulu and Netflix both provides television shows, so a consumer can choose between them. They are good substitutes

b. Tortilla chips and salsa.

Negative. They are complements.

Tortilla chips are consumed with salsa sauce. So a demand for salsa increases so does demand for tortilla chips.

c. Movie and popcorn.

Negative. They are complements.

The more people watch movies the more they will want to buy popcorn.

d. Running shoes and high heels

Close to zero. While they are substitutes they are not close substitutes.

Each has its own time of use. Consumers by them independently.

Explanation:

Cross price elasticity is a measure of the quantity demanded of one good to changes in price of another good.

So when a good's demand reduces with increase in price of another it is negative cross price elasticity. This is common with complements.

When quantity demanded of a good increases with increase in price of another, they are substitutes.

However when there is little effect on the quantity demanded with increase in price of the other good they are unrelated

Suppose Simmons' common stock has a beta of 1.37, the risk-free rate is 3.4 percent, and the market risk premium is 8.2 percent.
rjkz [21]

Answer:

The WACC of the firm is 11.91%

Explanation:

The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the rate of return that a business is expected to pay to all of its security holders- bonds, common stock, preferred stock- or is the cost of capital for the business.

To calculate the WACC, we use the following formula,

WACC = D/A * (1-tax rate) * rD  +  E/A * rE

Where,

  • D/A and E/A is the weightage of debt and assets as a proportion of total assets
  • rD * (1-tax rate) is the after tax cost of debt
  • rE is the cost of equity or required rate of return on equity

We first need to calculate the required rate of return on equity (r). We will use the CAPM formula for r.

r = 0.034 + 1.37 * 0.082

r = 0.14634 or 14.634%

The total assets are equal to,

Assets = Debt + Equity

If for every $1 of equity, there is $0.45 of debt as given by debt-equity ratio.

Then,

Assets = 0.45 + 1    

Assets = $1.45

WACC = 0.45/1.45 * (1-0.23) * 0.076  +  1/1.45 * 0.14634

WACC = 0.11908 or 11.908% rounded off to 11.91%
