Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

Happyland, a country of about 48 million people with beautiful beaches, vast natural resources, and a highly skilled labor force, is encouraging foreign direct investment flows.

The country exports textiles, computer hardware, and software.

The level of foreign trade in this country is such that they export more goods and services than they import.

This means that export earnings are more than their import payments.

So we can say that the country is having a current account surplus as it is receiving more and paying less in the current account.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

A Firm

The firm's WACC is:

= 12.16%

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                              Common               Bonds

                                                  Stock

Outstanding shares/bonds  2,000,000              2,000

Market price per unit                $2                     $1,200

Total market value             $4,000,000   $2,400,000

Total value of debt and equity = $6,400,000

Weight                                      62.5%                37.5% ($2,400/$6,400*100)

Cost of bonds (coupon rate) = 10%

Tax rate = 34%

Firm's beta = 1.5

Risk-free rate = 5%

Market risk premium = 7%

After-tax cost of bonds = 6.6% (1 - 0.34) * 10%

Cost of common stock =

Risk Free Rate + Beta x (Market Return - Risk Free Rate)

= 5% + 1.5 x (7%)

= 5% + 10.5%

= 15.5%

WACC = 15.5% * 62.5% + 6.6% * 37.5%

= 0.096875 + 0.02475

= 0.1216

= 12.16%
