aksik [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The lender lawfully denied the application because the applicant was under 18 and therefore was too young to legally sign a contract.

A 16 year old is not up to the age to sign a contract and even at that Every lender has their own requirements for approving a loan. And for a person who is just 16 getting a loan approval is going to be near impossible except it is done with the cosignature of a parent. This is because several checks are usually done before a loan is approved and a 16 year old may not pass all of them.

We run a delivery service, and we believe our firm has market risk equally between that of UPS and FedEx. We know the following

mixer [17]

Answer:

The answer is "0.85 "

Explanation:

In order to locate a beta of the company, we must find the average beta of unlevered UPS and FedEx and find a levered beta of the company.

Price Outstanding shares(Billion) Market valu of equity(Billion) Market value of debt(billions) D/E Ratio

UPS 65 0.7 45.5 5 0.1099

FedEx 55 0.25 13.75 3 0.2182

$Unlevered \ beta= \frac{levered \ beta}{(1+((1- tax rate)\times(\frac{Debt}{Equity})))}$

taxes desn't matter , given in the question so, assumed to be 0

$Unlevered \ beta \ for \ UPS= \frac{0.8}{1+(1-0)\times (0.1099)}$

$= \frac{0.8}{1+(1)\times (0.1099)}\\\\= \frac{0.8}{1+(0.1099)}\\\\= \frac{0.8}{1.1099}\\\\=0.72$

$Unlevered \ beta \ for \ FedEx= \frac{1.1}{1+(1-0)\times (0.2182)}$

$= \frac{1.1}{1+(1)\times (0.2182)}\\\\= \frac{1.1}{1+(0.2182)}\\\\= \frac{1.1}{1.2182}\\\\=0.90$

$Average \ Unlevered \ beta = \frac{0.72+0.90}{2}$

$= \frac{1.62}{2}\\\\=0.81$

$\text{levered beta of the delivery service firm }= unlevered \ beta \times(1+(1-taxes) \times (\frac{debt}{equity}))$

$= 0.81 \times (1+(1-0)\times (\frac{20}{450})\\\\= 0.81 \times (1+(1)\times (0.04)\\\\= 0.81 \times (1+(0.04)\\\\= 0.81 \times (1.04)\\\\=0.85$
