Answer:

False

Explanation:

Retained earnings as well as equity capital (raised through issuing stocks) have the same cost, and that is the required rate of return. Retained earnings must be treated as reinvested equity, since the alternative to retained earnings would be to distribute dividends to the stockholders.

Bonds usually have a lower cost and it is determined by the coupon rate and the corporate tax rate (interests paid lower taxes).

Revision and editing should happen simultaneously. true false
marysya [2.9K]
False.

Revising differs from editing because it requires the writer to really look at the essay he is writing. Revision is a process where writers review and change the written essay for any unnecessary words or mistakes. Editing is to check the proper usage of nouns and verbs, the punctuation, the spelling and the capitalization of words.
