Answer:

Explanation:

a) WACC of computer sales division:

Cost of equity = 4.3%+1.18×5.9%

=11.262%

WACC =(65300/(65300+705))×11.262%+(705/(65300+705))×6.2%×(1-35%)

=0.99*11.262% + 0.01*6.2%*0.65 = 11.15%+0.0403% = 11.2%

b. 12.5% = 43%×11.2%+57%×WACC (software div)

12.5% = 481.6% + 57%WACC

57%WACC = 469.1%

WACC (software division) = 8.23%

E. Because Heather is not guilty of any wrongdoing, Brad is entitled to no remedy; and Heather has an additional 90 days in order to honor the contract

B

Explanation:

Heather's misrepresentation resulted in her breaching the contract, even if she did it innocently or not. But since no transaction was completed, then the contract is simply terminated. If Brad had realized Heather's mistake after he had paid for the dog, then he could argue that he suffered damages and could try to seek some type of compensation but that wasn't the case here.
