Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Debt = D ÷ (E + D)
= 0.8 ÷ (1 + 0.8)
= 0.4444
Now 
Weight of equity = 1 - Debt
 = 1 - 0.4444
= 0.5556
As per Dividend discount model
Price = Dividend in 1 year ÷ (cost of equity - growth rate)
40 = $2 ÷ (Cost of equity - 0.06)
Cost of equity = 11%
Cost of debt
K = N
Let us assume the par value be $1,000
Bond Price =∑ [(Annual Coupon) ÷ (1 + YTM)^k] + Par value ÷ (1 + YTM)^N
k=1
K =25
$804 =∑ [(7 × $1000 ÷ 100)/(1 + YTM ÷ 100)^k] + $1000 ÷ (1 + YTM ÷ 100)^25
k=1
YTM = 9
After tax cost of debt = cost of debt × (1 - tax rate)
= 9 × (1 - 0.21)
= 7.11
WACC = after tax cost of debt × W(D) + cost of equity ×W(E)
= 7.11 × 0.4444 + 11 × 0.5556
 = 9.27%
As we can see that the WACC is lower than the return so it should be undertake the expansion 
 
        
             
        
        
        
The answer is<u> "B)	the rate of inflation".</u>
Inflation alludes to a general increment in the Consumer Price Index (CPI), which is a weighted normal of costs for various products. The arrangement of products that make up the record relies upon which are viewed as illustrative of a typical utilization crate. Therefore, contingent upon the nation and the utilization propensities for most of the populace, the file will include diverse merchandise. A few merchandise may record a drop in costs, though others may build, along these lines the general estimation of the CPI will rely upon the heaviness of every one of the products as for the entire bin. Yearly expansion, alludes to the percent change of the CPI contrasted with that same month of the earlier year. 
 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Answer:
4) Problem analysis
Explanation:
Problem analysis refers to a method of investigating consumer needs under certain complex conditions. It is carried out in order to improve systems, processes and designs. 
In this scenario, Sony was offering an extremely disruptive product which wasn't very user friendly but as we all know had a huge potential. Sony's original digital camera was very large, huge compared to normal cameras that used film. It was also very slow and it wasn't very good at taking pictures. Is main advantage was that it used 3¹/₂ floppy disk instead of film.
I'm not sure but I believe it could store around 10-12 pictures and then you had to use another disk. Finally people could start to take a lot of pictures without having to worry about high printing costs. My family had the final commercial product, and if that was the good product, I imagine that those that participated in the product analysis probably had to use and work with something slightly worse.
