Answer:

WACC = 6.66 %

Explanation:

<em>Weighted average cost of capital is the average cost of all of the long-term types of finance used by a company weighted according to the that amount of finance used in relation to the total pool of fund</em>

WACC = (Wd×Kd)  +  (We×Ke)

After-tax cost of debt = Before tax cost of debt× (1-tax rate)

Kd-After-tax cost of debt = 5%

Ke-Cost of equity = 11.4%

Wd-Weight f debt -74%

We-Weight of equity = 26%

WACC = (0.74× 5%)  + (0.26 × 11.4%) = 6.66 %

WACC = 6.66 %

The long-run aggregate supply curve is perfectly vertical, which reflects economists' belief that the changes in aggregate demand only cause a temporary change in an economy's total output. For the short-run aggregate supply, the quantity supplied increases as the price rises.

The full capacity AS curve is a long-run AS curved and it is vertical as the potential output level is denoted by it with the fully employed resources.
