Answer: The optimal capital structure maximizes the firm’s stock price.

Explanation:

The Capital Structure of a company refers to the proportion of debt vs equity that it chooses to use to fund its Assets and operations.

The goal of management is to use the capital structure to fund the company in such a way that the market value of a company increases.

The Market value is reflected by the firm's stock price so the optimal capital structure is meant to maximize the firm’s stock price.

Real per capita GDP in Taiwan in 1961 was about $500, but it doubled to about $1000.00 by 1981. a. What was the average annual e
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

the average annual economic growth rate in Taiwan from 1961 to 1981 was 41.42%

Explanation:

Hi, we need to use the following formula.

FV=PV(1+r)^{t}

Where:

FV = GDP in 1981 ($1,000)

PV = GDP in 1961 ($500)

r = growth rate

t = years from 1981 to 1961 (20 years)

So, it should look like this:

1,000=500(1+r)^{20}

Now, we solve for "r"

\frac{1,000}{500} =(1+r)^{20}

2=(1+r)^{20}

\sqrt[20]{2} -1=r

r=0.4142

So, the growth rate of Taiwan´s GDP is 41.42%

Best of luck.

A company purchased a new delivery van at a cost of $61,000 on July 1. The delivery van is estimated to have a useful life of 5
faust18 [17]

it's half a year out of 5, so 1/10 of the useful lifetime of the van

$61,000 - $4,900 is $56.1000

one tenth of that will be what we are looking for, so option b. should be just right to fit here
