Explanation:
Marginal benefit is the maximum amount that a consumer will be willing to pay for an extra product. It should be known that as consumption rises, the marginal benefit starts reducing.

Explanation:
a. The company's total book value of debt will be:
= Value of debt + Value of zero coupon bonds
= $70 million + $100 million

= $75.6 + $61
= $136.6 million

= (1 - 35%) × 5.7%
= 65% × 5.7%
= 3.7%
