Answer:
20.1%
Explanation:
In capital asset prcing model (CAPM), cost of equity (or cost of retained earnings in this context) is calculated as below:
<em>Cost of equity = risk-free rate of return + beta x (market index return - risk-free rate of return)</em>
Please note that <em>(market index return - risk-free rate of return)</em> is equal to <em>market risk premium</em>
Putting all the number together, we have:
Cost of equity/retained earnings = 2.5% + 2.2 x 8% = 20.1%
<em>Note: The dividend growth rate, tax rate & stock standard deviation is not relevant in answering the question.</em>

- Why should you memorize your social security number rather than carry your social security card in your wallet?
One big reason why you should NOT carry your social security number on you is that you could get robbed at ANY moment. And if someone has your Social security number, then they could slander your name.
- Explain why you will need to provide your social security number to employers.
You will need to provide your social security number to employers because they need to make sure that you are you.
<em>'Why do employers need my social security number? If an employer decides to extend you an offer, they will eventually need your social security number to verify your identity and work authorization and perhaps to complete a background check. However, they don't need it in the initial hiring phase.'</em>
Answer:
The answer is autonomy (Option D)
Explanation:
Autonomy in human resource management refers to the level or degree of discretion and freedom which an employee is permitted to exercise when performing his/her job. In other words, it means granting employees the freedom on how to approach work.
A manager or superior like Margie (in the question) who gives employees autonomy simply gives minimal instruction on what needs to be achieved but allows the employees to go about the job in ways that best suit them.
