Answer:
The answer is: Red Carpet should try to focus on niche market segments.
Explanation:
A niche market is part of a greater market, but its focus is set on very specific products. The niche market has very specific market needs that need to be targeted by very specific products.
Usually niche markets are targeted by high priced products since normal broad range products or services will not satisfy their specific needs. For example, vegan restaurants are more expensive than McDonald's or Pizza Hut.
Since niche markets are small, usually big multinational corporations don't pay attention to them.
Answer:
Task a:
The answer is $24,500.
Task b:
The answer is 17%
Explanation:
<h2>Task a:</h2><h3>What is the maximum amount of new capital that can be raised at the LOWEST component cost of EQUITY?</h3><h3>Solution:</h3>
We already know the following:
Projected net income = $21,000
Payout ratio = 30%
Retention ratio = 70%
Debt share = 40%
Equity share = 60%
Maximum amount of capital to be raised at the lowest component cost of equity = Projected net income ×
= $21,000 × 
= $24,500
<h3>Answer:</h3>
The maximum amount of new capital that can be raised at the lowest component of equity is $24,500.
<h2>Task b:</h2><h3>What is the component cost of equity by selling new common stock?</h3><h3>Solution:</h3>
k(e) (component cost of external equity) = [Dividend (D0)(1 + growth) / stock price(1 - flotation cost)] + growth
Formula:
k(e) = 
+ 0.05
Where
Do = $2.00
G = 0.05
P = $21/88
= ($2.00(1 + 0.05) / $21.88(1-.20)) + 0.05
= ($2.10/$21.88(1-.20)) + 0.05
= ($2.10/$21.88(0.80) + 0.05
= 0.17 or 17%
<h3>Answer: </h3>
The component cost of equity by selling new common stock = 17%
Answer:
$735 billion
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the national saving
Using this formula
National saving =Gross domestic product-Consumption expenditure-Government expenditure
Let plug in the formula
National saving=$2,450 billion-$1,390 billion- $325 billion
National saving=$735 billion
Therefore the national saving is $735 billion

From the problem statement it is clear that here we need to find out simple interest rate.
One do not get interest on any investment made at the end of tenure.
Putting this mathematically:
Let amount at the end of 5th year as A
Simple Interest for 5 years, SI = 750 *5
SI = 3750
Hence A = 10000 +3750
A= 13750
Let rate of return = R
Tenure t = 5
But,
A = P(1 + R*t/100)
13750 = 10000( 1+ R*5/100)
13750 = 10000 + 50000R/100
3750 = 500R
R = 3750/500
R = 7.5 %
Hence rate of return is 7.5% per annum (answer)
