Answer:

Firms after tax of debt is 6.87%

Explanation:

Firm's after-tax cost of debt is calculated using the RATE function as follow:-

=RATE(nper,pmt,pv,fv)*(1-tax rate)

=(RATE(20*2,40,-894.87,1000)*2)*(1-25%)

=6.87%

Answer:

9%

Explanation:

The cost of debt is the yield to maturity of the bond. Yield to maturity is the annual rate of return that an investor receives if a bond bond is held until the maturity. it is long term return which is expressed in annual rate.

Number of payment = n = 40 payments

Coupon Payment = $1,000 x 8% /2 = $40

Yield to maturity = [ C + ( F - P ) / n ] / [ (F + P ) / 2 ]

Yield to maturity = [ $40 + ( $1,000 - $894.87) / 40 ] / [ ($1,000 + $894.87) / 2 ] = 0.045

Yield to maturity = 4.5% semiannually = 9% annually

Explanation:

  • Design competition seems to be a platform that allows participants to overcome a problem domain as well as compete against someone else, mostly their colleagues, to obtain an honor or perhaps a construction project.
  • In comparison to the greatest design, arts as well as architecture blogs around the world, A' Design Recognition and Competition distributes every information throughout the design internet networks.

Some other available options have no connection with the given scenario. So choice B seems to be the right answer to that.
