Answer: D Fiscal Policies

Fiscal policies refer the adjustments made by the government to tax policies and government spending in order influence the level of economic activity in a country.

The main aim of a fiscal policy is to stabilize the economy while trying to avoid the impact of excessive growth and recessions.

Answer:

Projects E,F and G should NOT be considered.

Optimal Capital  is $5,750,000

Explanation:

The accept-or-reject rule, using the IRR method, is to acceptthe project if its Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is higher than theWeighted Average Cost of Capital(k) [r>k]. The project shall berejected if its internal rate of return is e lower than theWeighted Average Cost of Capital cost of (r<k)

                                 Accept if        r>k

                                 Reject if         r<k

                                   Mayaccept if r = k

If the Weighted Average Cost of Capitl (WACC) is less than IRRrate, then the project has positive NPV; if it is equal to IRR, theproject has a Zero NPV, and if it is greater than the IRR, theproject has negative NPV.

The projects should be accepted as the rate of return on theproject is higher than the WACC(10.8%) which means that theprojects will be profitable as the returns are higher than the costof the project (capital).  Considering this projects E,F and G should NOT be considered.

And considering the sizes the Optimal Capital  is $5,750,000 (the addition of sizes of all projects)
