lara31 [8.8K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: a) increase in the demand for Kindles.

Explanation: the substitution effect for substitute goods gives that, if the price of good A rises, the demand for good B rises. Since a substitute good is a good that can be used in place of another, they are goods that a consumer perceives as similar or are comparable, in such a way that having more of one good causes the consumer to desire less of the other good. From the viewpoint of price, and given that consumers always prefer to spend less in instances where two goods are substitutes, it then means that Kindle can be used and preferred in place of Nooks given that the price of Nooks had gone up. Therefore, increasing the price of Nooks causes a corresponding increase in the demand for Kindles.

Zinaida [17]

The answers are : unauthorized, identified, facts, affirm, authorization, withdraws, observe.

Explanation:

Ratification occurs when the principal accepts responsibility for the agent's unauthorized acts. For ratification to be valid, the agent must have acted on behalf of an identified principal, that principal must know all of the material facts , must affirm the agent's act in its entirety, and must have the legal authorization to ratify the transaction both at the time the agent engages in the act and at the time the principal ratifies it.

Phillips Equipment has 80,000 bonds outstanding that are selling at par. Bonds with similar characteristics are yielding 7.5%. T
ollegr [7]

Answer:

A) 10.15%

Explanation:

Cost of equity (Re) = 14.06% or 0.1406

cost of preferred stock (Rp) = 7/65 = 0.10769

cost of bonds (Rb) = 7.5% or 0.075

 outstanding shares = 2.5 million shares x $42 = $105 million

bonds outstanding = $1,000 x 80,000 bonds = $80 million

preferred stock = $65 x 750,000 = $48.75 million

corporate tax rate = 38% or 0.38

total market value of equity + debt (in millions) = $105 + $48.75 + $80 = $233.75

WACC = [(outstanding shares / total market value) x Re] + [(preferred stock / total market value) x Rp] + {[(bonds outstanding / total market value) x Rb] x (1 - tax rate)}

WACC = [($105m / $233.75m) x 0.1406] + [($48.75m / $233.75m) x 0.10769] + {[($80m / $233.75m) x 0.075] x (1 - 0.38)}

WACC = 0.06316 + 0.02246 + 0.01591 = 0.10153 or 10.15%
