Answer:
13.86%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the flotation-adjusted (net) cost of its new common stock
Using this formula
Cost of new common stock(re) = [d1 / stock price (1-flotation cost)] +g
Let plug in the formula
Cost of new common stock(re)= [$1.36 / 33.35 (1 – 0.065)]+0.094
Cost of new common stock(re)= [$1.36 / 33.35 (0.935)]+0.094
Cost of new common stock(re)= [$1.36/31.182)+0.094
Cost of new common stock(re)=0.04361+0.094
Cost of new common stock(re)=0.1376*100
Cost of new common stock(re)=13.76%
Therefore the flotation-adjusted (net) cost of its new common stock will be 13.76%

Answer: 8%
Explanation:
The expected return is a weighted average of the returns given the probability of certain states of the economy:
= (Prob. of boom * return if boom) + (Prob. of normal * return if normal) + (Prob. of weak * return if weak)
= (20% * 35%) + (50% * 14%) + (30% * -20%)
= 0.07 + 0.07 - 0.06
= 8%
