Answer:

13.38%

Explanation:

The formula to compute WACC is shown below:

= Weightage of debt × cost of debt × ( 1- tax rate) + (Weightage of  common stock) × (cost of common stock)

where,  

Market value of equity = 2,800,000 × $50 = $140,000,000

Market value of debt = 10,000,000 × 95% = $9,500,000

Weighted of debt = Debt ÷ total firm

The total firm includes debt, preferred stock, and the equity which equals to

=  $140,000,000 + $9,500,000

= $149,500,000

So, Weighted of debt = ($9.5 million ÷ $149.50 million) = 0.0635

And, the weighted of common stock = (Common stock ÷ total firm)

                                                              = $140 million ÷ $149.50 million

                                                              = 0.9364        

And, the cost of equity = risk free rate of return + Beta × market risk premium

= 5% + 1.25 × 7%

= 5% + 8.75%

= 13.75%      

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= ( 0.0635 × 12%) × ( 1 - 35%) +  (0.9364 × 13.75%)

= 0.4953 + 12.88%

= 13.372%

Let’s assume a required reserve ratio of 10 percent.
Furkat [3]

Answer:

The answer is 72.9 dollars.

Explanation:

The reserve ratio of 10% means that bank must keep 10% percent of amount deposited in bank to meet emergency payments and can lend the remaining 90% to other banks. So the second bank can lend 81 dollars that is 90% of 81 dollars. As per this rule second bank has 72.9 dollars (90% of 81) to lend.

The short-run aggregate supply curve implies that real output exceeds its long-run level when the price level is:
Annette [7]

Answer:

greater than the expected price level

Explanation:

The short run aggregate supply curve shows graphically that the real output is more than its long run level when the price level is more than expected price level. When there is great expectation about inflation it shifts the short run Aggregate Supply curve outwards or to the right. Price level would then rise in the long run but real output would stay the same or unchanged.

Suppose that the country of Samiam produces only eggs and ham. In 2005 it produced 100 dozen eggs at $3 per dozen and 50 pounds
kozerog [31]

Answer:

d. nominal GDP is $500, real GDP is $400, and the GDP deflator is 125.

Explanation:

Real GDP is total output produced in an economy within a given period multiplied by base year prices

Nominal GDP is the sum of all final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period multiplied by current year prices.

Nominal GDP = (100 × $3) + (50 × $4) =

$500

Real GDP = (100 × 1.5) + (50 × $5) = $400

GDP deflator = (nominal gdp / real gdp) x 100

(500 / 400) × 100 = 125
