Explanation:
In this scenario Sophia made an initial financial plan in which she would travel around the world.

Answer:
WACC for A: 9.05%
WACC for B: 9.50%
WACC for C: 12.20%
WACC for D: 12.65%
Explanation:
WACC for a division will be equal: Percentage of Debt in capital employed by the Division x Cost of Debt + Percentage of Equity in capital employed by the Division x Cost of equity = 50% x 6% + 50% x ( Risk free rate + Beta of each Division x Risk premium) = 3% + 50% x ( 4% + beta of each Division x Risk premium)
Risk premium for the 4 Divisions is equal to (Cost of equity for the whole firm - Risk free rate) / beta = 9%
Thus WACC for a division will be equal: 3% + 50% x ( 4% + beta of each Division x 9%).
Substitute beta of each Division from A to D provided in the question, we have: WACC for A: 9.05%; WACC for B: 9.5%; WACC for C: 12.2%; WACC for D: 12.65%.
Answer:
E: a debt of $10.7 trillion and a deficit of zero.
Explanation:
Deficits are usually financed by debt. Here the government has incurred an extra debt of $700 billion. The previous debt of $10 trillion may have been due to any reason and not necessarily deficit. However, the passage does not state if the extra debt is due to deficit or not. So it is safe to select option E.
Hence, the government has incurred a total debt of $10.7 trillion and a deficit of zero.
