The raw materials or reactants of the photosynthetic process include
A. glucose and oxygen.
B. carbon dioxide and glucose.
C. carbon dioxide and water.
D. carbon dioxide and oxygen.
The raw materials or reactants of the photosynthetic process include carbon dioxide and water.
<h3><u>
Explanation:</u></h3>
The process by which the light energy obtained from the sun is converted into chemical energy is photosynthesis. This process takes place in all plants having chloroplast pigments. The raw materials of this process is water and carbon dioxide.
In the photosynthesis process water, carbon dioxide and minerals will be converted into oxygen and some organic compounds that are filled with energy. This acts as an energy source for the plants to survive. This process will not be possible in the absence of the chloroplast pigment.
Answer:
Option (B) is correct.
Explanation:
Cost of Equity (Ke) = Rf + Beta ( Rp)
where,
Rf = risk free rate
Rp = Market risk premium
Hence,
Beta systematic risk
:
= 7% + 1.7 (6%)
= 7% + 10.2%
= 17.2%
Post Tax cost of debt:
= Kd ( 1 - T)
where,
Kd = cost of debt
T = tax rate
= 20% * (1-0.4)
= 12%
WACC = [ (Ke × We) + (Wd × Kd(1-T)) ]
where,
We = weight of equity
Wd = weight of debt
= [(17.2% × 0.6) + (0.4 × 20% × (1 - 0.4))]
= 10.32% + 4.80%
= 15.12%
