Answer:
The correct answer is option C.
Explanation:
When the interest rate falls below the normal level, people expect the interest rates to rise in future and bond prices to fall.

Answer:
B) 9.1%
Explanation:
Cost of debt is the interest rate paid by a company due to borrowing money; i.e debt from investors.
$185million in debt is the face value of debt that Westford Corporation had and the $26 million dollars of interest expense is the cost of the debt in dollars;
First, find pretax cost of debt ;
Pretax cost of debt = (Interest expense / Face value of debt )*100
= (26,000,000/ 185,000,000 )*100
=0.1405 *100
= 14.05%
Next, use pretax cost of debt to find after-tax cost of debt;
After-tax cost of debt = Pretax cost of debt (1-tax)
= 14.05% *(1-0.35)
= 9.13%
Therefore, Westford's cost of debt capital is 9.1%

The same is to be considered
Answer:
The cost of the 28 units sold is $548
Explanation:
In the given question,
On March 1 it purchase 12 units for $15 = 12 units × $15 = $180
On March 2 it purchase 12 units for $24 = 12 units × $24 = $288
On March 6 it purchase 7 units for $20 = 7 units × $20 = $140
And, on march it sold 28 units for $63 each
The 28 units could be taken from
12 × $15 = $180
12 × $24 = $288
And remaining 4 units × $20 = $80
So, the total cost of units sold = $180 +$288 +$80 = $548
