Answer:

b. 8.225%

Explanation:

The rate formula will be used to solve this question.

Please note that the NPER represents the time value.

Where;

Present value is $754.08

Let's assume that the face value is $1,000

PMT= 1,000 x 7.25% ÷2

=$36.25

NPER= 9 years x 2

= 18 years

The formulae is therefore

Rate(NPER,PMT,-,PV,FV)

The value of the present value is negative.

a. The pretax would therefore be 11.75%

b. After tax cost of debt would be ;

Pretax cost of debt x (1 - tax rate)

11.75% x (1 - 30%)

11.75% x (1 - 0.03)

=8.225%.

The president of a growing engineering firm wishes to give each of 20 employees a holiday bonus. how much needs to be deposited
Ludmilka [50]

Given that: F (Future worth) = $2,500, i (nominal interest rate) = 0.12, compounded monthly = 12 months, years of investment = 1 year, and no. of employees = 20. Compute using the annuity formula: A=Fi/(((1+i)^n)-1). Calculating i = 0.12/12 = 0.01, since it is compounded monthly. Calculating n (total number of compounding) = 1 x 12 = 12, since year of investment is equal to 1. Substituting F=2500, i=0.01 and n=12 to the annuity formula, you will get A=$197.12. Multiply by 20, you will get $3,942.44.

An oligopoly exists when a firm offers a product that has no close substitutes, making the firm the sole source of supply.
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

B) False

Explanation:

That would be a monopoly (only one supplier).

An oligopoly is a market where there are very few suppliers, and competition is very limited since the barriers to entry are very significant.

For example, the automobile industry is an oligopoly. There are only a few car manufacturers in the world, and they all are very large corporations. It costs hundreds of millions of dollars to introduce a new car model, and every time that happens, the corporations must carry on expensive advertising and promotional campaigns.
