Answer:

14.27%

Explanation:

Unlevered value = [Expected earnings before interest and taxes × (1- tax rate)]/Unlevered cost of capital

Unlevered value = [$87,200 x (1- 0.35)]/0.12 = $472,333.33

Levered value = Unlevered value + (Tax rate × Debt market value)

Levered value = $472,333.33 + (0.35 x $227,000) = $551,783.33

Value of equity = Levered value - Debt market value

Value of equity = $551,783.33 - $227,000 = $324,783.33

Cost of equity = Unlevered cost of capital + [(unlevered cost of capital - coupon rate) × (Debt market value/Value of equity) × (1 - Tax rate)]

Cost of equity = 0.12 + [(0.12 - 0.07) × ($227,000/$324,783.33) × (1 - 0.35)] = 0.1427, or 14.27%

Therefore, the firm's cost of equity is 14.27%

Suppose that in the fictional country of Albireo the work-eligible population is 180 million, there are 110 million workers in t
maksim [4K]

Answer:

6.36 %

Explanation:

Unemployment means the state of being jobless but actively searching for work.  Unemployed people are part of the labor force.

In the case of Albireo, the work-eligible population is 180 million.

There are 110 million workers in the labor force, and employment level is 103 million. It means that those in the labor force and are not employed are 110 million - 103 million.

The number of unemployed people  = 7 million

The formula for calculating the rate of unemployment

= No. of unemployed people / No. in the labor force x 100

=7 million / 110 million x 100

=7/110 x 100

= 0.063 x 100

=6.36 %

vova2212 [387]

Consider two processes. If both versions create the same benefit, but one costs more than the other, the higher-cost version is less Efficient than the lower-cost version.

<h3>What is Process Quality?</h3>

Process Quality = measured in two dimensions: process effectiveness and process efficiency

Effective Business Process = enables the organization to accomplish its strategy. ex: investigating whether 3D printing will help accomplish the strategy of having the largest selection of parts in the industry

Efficiency Business Process = the ratio of benefits to costs. ex: consider two versions that create the same benefit, but one costs more than the other does, meaning the higher-cost version is less efficient than the lower-cost version/if both versions cost the same, but one generates less benefit than the other, then the lower-benefit one is less efficient.
