The effective interest rate is calculated through the equation,
                               ieff = (1 + i/r)^r - 1
where ieff is the effective interest, i is the nominal interest, and r is the number of 15 weeks in a year. Every year, there are 52 weeks. Thus, there are 3.467 15-weeks approximately. Substituting this into the equation,
                                  ieff  = (1 + 0.04/3.467)^3.467 - 1
                                  ieff = 0.04057
                                     ieff = 4.057%

vodomira [7]

Answer:

The problem with variable rates is that they vary, i.e., they might unexpectedly increase and the increase might be pretty significant. One of the main factors leading to the Great Recession was the housing bubble and the increase in mortgage interest rates. Normally, interest rates tend to increase, they might sometimes decrease, but generally they only go up and up.

Even though the fixed interest rate might be higher, it will not change and that  guarantees that you will always pay the same amount and that you can prepare your personal budget to cover it.

The higher the firm's flotation cost for new common equity, the more likely the firm is to use preferred stock, which has no flo
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

B. False

Explanation:

Flotation costs are cost that are concerned with issuing new common stock. It is the amount of money or cost incurred by an organization when offering its securities to the public. The cost may include legal fees, auditing fees and registration fees. When the flotation cost goes higher, firms are more likely to use debts rather than preferred stock. This is simply because debt is lesser than both common stock and preferred stock. Also, its fallacy to think that preferred stock doesnt have flotation cost. Its only that its not as high as the ones for new common equity.
